The Missionary Worm Turns.

The missionaries have come in tol

Chinese discussion. But the patiencs

The Rev. Thomas Marshall of the
Presbyterian Board of Foreign Mis-
sions and a Chinese missionary of lone
experience tells some bitter truths
about the Boxer uprising.
The trouble is caused by the land
grabbing proclivities OF the Christian
nations, according to Mr.. Marshall.

They are simply the patriots of Chi.

black handled knife that carved their bak-

the shoulder down through his heart.
That saves my cartridges,'' said Cap
tain Kettle and took his cooked revolver
from where it lodged between his knee
and the under side of the table.
He passed swiftly out through the pan
try door and was just in time for what he
expected. The negroes, alarmed by Nuts
shrieks, We're rushing from the messroom
to see what had gone wrong. He charged
and drove them furiously back. They
turned and ran before him, tumbling over
one another in their scared haste and
then he took up his place in the doorway,
threatening them with steady weapon and
crisp, decisive tongue.
Quick he creu, ''quick, you scum
unload yourselves. Pitch overheard your
knives and razors and whatever you We
got, or, by James, if u man of you stops to
think, I'll blow his brains through the

frightened silence and stood with elbows
up facing him as he covered them. Kettle
watched the three with steady eye, but his

there came the sound of bumps and

the patterin2 of naked feet as he CROPPED
his way up the lead covered steps of the
companionway. So intently did they follow
this one mans movements that it seemed
to them as though all other sounds were
hushed, even to the never ceasing hum of
the insects
With awe the listeners held their breath
for what might come next. But they had
not long to wait. There burst out n wild
TRADE of hate and blasphemy, which ended
in shrieking cry of despair and IA heavy
plunging splash, and once more the dis

them.

The one eyed man tried to retort, but
his infirmity gagged him, and a spasm of

His friend waved a derisive finger.
''There's an image for you, cap. Lock

corollary of his native dignity. His
quaint points are the quaintness of his
country.
Like Lincoln, his peculuarities are
the signs of pure and unadulturated
Americanism. Nothing can be more
graceful than his unaffected, sincere
home life. 1t may be true that many VI
the present elements of social life in the
White House would be modified if Mr..
Bryan should be elected President, but
he would be bringing to that place the
glory of a manhood that it has not
known for many years. He will at
tract to the White House scholars,
Statesmen and philosophers, rather
than money-changers and political
harlots. And the humblest man in the
nation would have access to the Presi-
dent
have met almost every great man of
my own time in the principal countries
of the world but I nave never met a
greater man than Mr. Bryan.
As a rule, one finds the idealist man
of frail body, physically incapable of
making continuous struggle. But
here is an incorruptible idealist with the
physical strength of an OK. Nowhere
in the world is there to be found
more perfect combination of mind,
spirit and body. The three are evenly
balanced in the Democratic leader
mental energy controlled by intelligence;
imagination inspired by philanthropy;
virility disciplined by virtue.
He seems to grow broader and deeper
every year. His religious convictions
are vital to him, but he avoids religious
discussions. He seems to feel that re-
igion is private thing between a man
and his God. eve are all trying to
cast out devils, he says, "and each
man works in his own way"
Four years ago Mr. Bryan was a
Western man. To-day he is national
almost international. Then he was an
agitator; now he is statesman. His
life and Conduct are based ON what he
believes it to be righteous.
"And yet" he said only a week ago,
81 would be fool if L did not rejoice in
the triumph of right rather than in the
triumph of what believe to be right
