MASSACRED BY BOXERS.
Description of the Murder of Rev.
Mr.. Ellis, of the Mis-
sion, and Companions.

Victoria, b. C., June 27.--The Shang-
hal Mercury says that a member of the
Boxers society who saw the murder of
Rev. Mr.. Ellis, OF the London mission,
and of a Chinese missionary at Kung
Tsrn, gave the following account of
the tragedy to Il friend:
"On the 18th day of the fourth moon
the Boxers, numbering 81, crossed the
river Tsz-Tsun and met the two mis-
sionaries in a boat. They knew the
Chinese was a Christian, and at once
attacked him, wounding him with their
swords. Then they dragged him out
of the boat and tied him 10 n tree at
the riverside. Then Mr.. Ellis was tied
with him and Mr.. Chao, another Chi
rese missionary, was found. His toes
and thumbs were bound together and
he was carrier to a tree near where
the others were hung up. The arms Of
the missionaries were cut off, their
heads hewn off, md after the bodies
had been disemboweled, they were
cast into the river. The chapel of the
mission was demolished and the
crowd went on their way"
This was but one of many such out
races.

the dryness of the mouth, but do not
relieve real thirst, which can only be
prevented by water.

in which it is collected, their revenues should be as nearly the same as practicable, that each may have some to spend in buying ma terial and building bridges. The overseer's salary must of course be paid out of it. The law would be a good one, however, if there were only money enough in each dis trict to pay the overseers and buy the team and tools required; for the right man could accomplish vast deal in a year by using alone the labor in kind in each district, if he has tools. This has been a great drawback heretofore. Judge Duncan is a great advocate of the law and is man of sound judg- ment. If the Justices sustain and cooperate with him in starting out matters right and none but good and capable men are employed as commissioner and overseers, we shall have satisfactory results; and opposition to the tax, which ex- ists largely from ignorance of the provisions of the law, will speedi- 1y be converted into earnest advo- cacy of its continuation. In an other article, I may answer some objections l have heard urged against the law.
