Zion's Heat.

Salt Lake City, Juno 29.-If there
was shady spot within the limits Of
Zion yesterday that did not have an oc-
cupant, it was because that spot vas
like the little desert flower that WAS
born to blush unseen. From the fore
part Of the afternoon, when the mercury
shot up and the sweltering citizens be-
streets, until Old Sol sank to rest behind
the Oquirrh range, there was one upper
most topic of conversation, and it was
heard on all sides.
"Whew" said the fat man, this is
about the hottest yet" An thafs just
what is was. June's highest record Of
100 degrees took topple and the day Of
the making Of that record, June %, 1888,
gracefully submitted to the inevitable
and handed the record over to June 2S,
1900, with bow that was nothing il not
hot Yesterdays maxim was 1O1 de-
grses in the shade, which is one degree
hotter than any other June day on tho
weather bureau records, and that insti-
tuition is little over twenty five years
old,
The minimum for the day, which was
registered in the carly hours Of the
morning, about the time tho cock crew.
was sixty seven degrees, and the mean
temperature for the day was eighty four
degrees above the normal. This makes
the accumulated excess OF temperature
since the LIST of the month 1870 degrees.

Saws Ministers are Safe,

Washington, juno 29.-Ministsr WI

gram to Secretary Hay:
"Canton, June 29.-The legation min
listers having left Pekin are now twelve
miles from Tien Tsin with Admiral Sey-
mour.
Iii Hung Chang"
The minister explained that the cable
gram reached him from the Chinese

department officials are inclined to
doubt it as yet.

Fate of the Ministers is in Doubt.

New York, June 29-Definite informa-
ton is at last to hand that the foreign
diplomatic corps in China is not safe
with Admiral Seymour's column as WAS
reported.
The srecial dispatch from Shanghai,
announcing the arrival Of Admiral Sey-
mour at Tien Tsin and stating that the
whereabouts OF the legations was un-
known, is confirmed in the course OF the
report OF that unfortunate relieving
forces attempt to reach Peking.
Some Chinese captives said that the
legation buildings had been burned and
the ministers killed while others said
they were imprisoned.
Fifteen days OF continuous fighting,
during ten days of which period his men
were on quarter rations, is the story Of
the international columns failure to
reach the Chinese capital.
Among the casualties, which totaled
50 killed and over 800 wounded, only
three Americans were killed and two
wounded.

A SEVERE ARRANGEMENT.

That was scorching arraign-
ment that the national prohibition
convention gave William McKin>
ley. The hypocrisy of the presi>
dent on the temperance question
has been revealed to the prohibl>
tionists, just as his duplicity on
other questions has been discover
ed by other citizens. Possibly the
prohibitionists entertain some mis-
taken notions concerning the mer>
its of the army canteen system, but
they are right in declaring that the
president violated his oath of office
when he sought to nullify an act OF
congress.
Perhaps the most serious charge
made against the president by the
temperance people is contained in
the following resolution, which was
,dooted with enthusiasm.

THE MISSIONARIES IN CHINA.

II Is IlOl ClCdl lAlctl tAiS HAaooAOAA :
aries were entirely responsible for
the uprising in China, but there is
no doubt that their presence there
has had an irritating effect upon
the Mongolians and has to large
degree led to the present troubles.
The intentions of these mission
aries we're, no doubt, good, but it
is to be hoped they will learn les
son from the harsh experiences
they have undergone.
In the first place, they had no
more business over there forcing
Christianity upon unwilling Chinese
than would these same Cinnamon
have in America cramming Confu>
cianis.n down the protesting throats
OF Christian people. We wonder
how long Chinese missionaries
would last in this country7
In the second place, all the mis-
sionaries in Christiandom could not
convert Chinaman in an hundred
years. We have yet to hear OF a
genuine conversion, and never ex>
pect to hear of one. They consid-
er their religion older and better
than that of the Christians, and
look with plying contempt upon
both our religion and our customs.
Thirdly, what is there gained if
we should happen to convert few
of them1 We have no way Of know
ing that their pathway to Heaven
would be made palmer or smoother
than by their own road. We can
not assimilate with them on earth,
and will not miss their companions
ship in Heaven.
II we would expect tolerance of
our own religion we should respect
the religion Of others. While the
material progress of the Chinese
has not kept pace with that Of the
Christian nations, spiritually they
may stand as clean before their
Maker as they who consider them>
selves the elect.
The testimony Of Chinaman
who was educated in this country
is that the missionaries have done
infinitely more harm than good in
their efforts to convert his country.
men. They have not succeeded in
making any Christians, but on the
contrary they have raised consid>
cradle crop Of doubters, who are in
fair way to become out-and-out
infdels. The Christian missions
aries, in showing them the falsity
of the Chinese religion, we're un-
successful in impressing the truths
Of their own creed in its stead.
Any faith is better than no faith,
and when the missionaries cut them
loose from their ancient teaching,
they simply set them adrift.
The missionaries need not go to
China or India or Africa seeking
the heather. They are all around
us at home. Our great cities
swarm with them. The Chinaman
cherishes the faith of his fathers,
but the heather of our land know
no religion but the laws iron
hand. Here is field for the sowing.
Why do the missionaries not cul>
tivate it1
Let Christianity first pluck the
mote from its own spiritual eye be-
fore experimenting on its neighbors
optics.
