the stories of massacre in Picking prove

the mission field in that land.
Five OF the ALUMNI atPekfng.
According to the latest information
at least five graduates Of the univer-
sity are penned up with the beleaguered
foreigners in Peking, the hot-bed as
well as capital Of the Infamous Box
ers. If recent reports are true, they,
with the others, have been mastered
by order of Prince Tuan, the usurper
Of the throne. Their friends in this
city, and there are many both in uni
versity and town circles, have no re-
cent authentic information Of their
condition or hopes. 1t is not believed
here that the massacres, If indeed it
has already occurred, will end the pres
ent outbreak against the foreigners.
Expects "A General Massacre.
DR.. Angel is reported to believe,
with others whose experience among
the Chinese makes what they say Of
the greatest weight, that the most
strenuous efforts of the powers will
not keep the disaffection from spread
ing to all parts of the empire to the
end that every missionary will either
be killed or forced to flee from the
country.
