terrain church and her work has been
largely carried on by funds furnished
by churches in Somers and in Mil
waukee. She has been at work in
Hainan for more than ten years and
in that time she has accomplished a
great work. She has built up
Christian schools and churches and
converts secured under her teachings
number many hundreds. AT the time
of the Boxer troubles many of her
schools were torn down, but they have
been rebuilt during the last few
years.
A wholly consecrated woman Miss
Schaeffer has won the admiration of
the government officials in Hainan,
and she has the constant care of the
English as we'll as Chinese officials.
This fact it is thought will prevent
her being, harmed should the present
revolutionary outbreaks spread to
the island.

Friends of Miss Kate Schaeffer
a Missionary in China Fear
She May Be in Danger
WORKING IN HAINAN ISLAND
Kenosha County Woman who Has Been
Working as a Teacher of Religions
Doctrine for Many Years is
Consecrated to Her Work

Friends of Miss Kate L. Schaeffer
of the town of Somers, who is now
serving as missionary in the
province of Hainan, China, are be-
ginning to have fears for her safety.
With the general uprising of the
lower classes Of the Chinese against
the foreign missionaries it is feared
that Miss Schaeffer is in extreme
danger, Thus far no serious out
breaks of the natives have been re-
ported from the island of Hainan,
blt the island is known to be in the
very center of the revolutionary dis
tricts and an outbreak may be ex-
pected at any time. The last letters
received from Miss Schaeffer showed
that while prepared for any outbreak
she had not been mo1ested.
During the Boxer riots several
years ago the Kenosha missionary
was time and again in houses which
were attacked, by the Boxers, but she
escaped without injury. For several
weeks Miss Schaeffer ard her as
sistants slept with rifles under their
pillows and the house in which they
we're living was closely barricaded to
prevent an attack. At that time the
schools and churches in which Miss
Schaeffer had been teaching were
stoned and wrecked and several of
the natives who had been attending
the services were killed by the natives.
Miss Schaeffer remained at her post
Of duty until she was forced to leave
and then she left in the night and
made trip of thirty miles on foot
in order to reach an American con-
sulate where she secured the protec-
tion Of the American flag. Shortly
after she returned to her home in
Somers for long rest.
! Miss Schaeffer has always been
very popular in Hainan, and even
the natives who are unalterab1y op.
posed to The coming of the Christian
religion have shown her many
courtesies.
Miss Schaeffer was sent to China
by the Mission board of the Presby

Once a warship, Now a Will.

1t is not widely known that the
Chesapeake. famous for her historic
encounter with the British ship Shan
non in 1913, is in existence today, but
she is used in the somewhat ingloriouS
capacity OF a -four mill in the little
Hampshire parish at Wickham. After
her capture by Sir Philip B. v. Broke
she was brought to England In 1914,
and in 1920 her timbers were sold to
John Prior, miller of Wickham, Hants.
Mr. Prior pulled down his old mill at
Wickham and erected new one from
the Chesapeake's timbers, which he
found admirably adapted for the pur-
pose. Many of these timbers still have
the mark of the Shannon's grapeshot,
and in some places the shot are to be
seen deeply imbedded in the wood.
