Burned to Death.

On Tuesday, Of last week, Martha, a two.
year.old daughter Of Albert and Martha
Foreman of Baltimore City, was SO severely
burned that death ensued in eighteen hours.
But a few minutes before, the mother LETT
her as she supposed, asleep; her screams at.
tracted attention and when found she was
enveloped in flames. She had climbed on n
chair and got hold Of matches on a mantle.
The body was brought here on Thursday for
interment.
Just week previous, the father received
a blow on the head from heavy plank that
rendered him insensibe for time. Mr.
Foreman is head millwright at the Gambrill
FIGURING Mills, Baltimore, and it was while
engaged at his duties there that he met with
the mishap;had the plank struck him squarely
on the head instead of the Glancing blow, it
would have resulted seriously.

CnnxerfinR the ChInn mRn

When | first met him the Greek
archimandrite had been 40 years In
Picking, and had never been anywhere
else except for two caravan journeys
to Russia. He was an elderly gentle
man, with smile like Benjamin
Franklin's. and was famed Mt the Chi
nese capital for keeping the best wines
and the best tobacco. He was a
bachelor, and today recall him when
l try to fancy Epicurus In the body.
He wore the Chinese pigtail and
clothes to match, and people said he
could give Chinese mandarins points
on etiquette. He gave me, at least,
many happy hours, for he talked with
a frankness and facility rarely united
in a Russian, least of all an archi-
mandrite.
One day, for instance, I asked him
bluntly how many converts he had
made. He answered that he thought
be had made one, but he did not wish
to be taken as stating this positively.
When | returned to China after an in
terval of II years, all my inquiries led
me to respect the honesty Of this Rus
sian. He said, furthermore:
II have been here 40 years, and per-
haps l have converted one Chinaman.
When missionaries tell you that they
have done more than that, do not be-
lieve them. "-Poultney Bigelow In
