Ho Vow, the Chinese Consul-Ge neral, has written an erudite pagefull of talk with the object of telling us why the Chinese prosecute the American mls- sioDaries. Religious bigotry IS :he cause. If the Confucian, Taoist, or Buddhist proselvters came over here and brazeniy announced they were the only species of theological owls whom God took into his confidence, that our creeds were but fool imaginings, we would pre-. sent them with our respects and few brickbats, just as trey have done to our meddlesome sky-pilots.

ArooI report, born in some journal istic cave of the winds, and industrlous- ly showed along by the tribe of horse reporters, has it that the Gibson of Emanuel church has confessed to kill- ing of the two unfortunate young girls for whose murder Durraut gave up his life. 1t would be awful to hear-that Durrant died disgraced, reviled, held by all men to be foul monster, and yet was innocent. Every one of us who, convinced by the damning enormity of black evidence against him, adiudged him in our thoughts guilty, would retain in common with the twelve who hanged him, an everlasting horror in the dim corners of our .consciences. But there is small probability of Durrant's inno- cence. The overwhelming array of evil dence against him is irreiutable. One man, two, or even a. dozen men, could perjure themselves to hang an innocent man; but the thousands of unconscious tiny incidents forming the big facts in the perfect array of proof that brought DurfaIt to the scaffold, never contra dicted one another in the tiniest detail. purrznt must have been guilty.
