mediately jumped into the water, which
was deep ut that point, but was unable
to reach her little one, and losing her
footing sank beneath the surface. "A
man about sixty years of age, then
Ieaped into the pond and seized Mrs.
Fogarty, but his efforts SO exhausted
him that he, too, sank to his death.
Miss Martha Daley, maid employed
nearby, by this time had lowered her
self into the water and rescued the lit

crime for which the states prison doors
you'd fly wide open, and the electric

that old gentleman is not the only old
cripple who is insulted nightly on that

insulting, yelling, calling the old all
kind OF names. Sunday school to open

We all know the teachers do their

and self respect. When man or wo-
man, girl or boy, looses self respect,

REVOLT AGAINST
FOREIGNERS N
CHINA SERIOUS
American Missions in Province
of kwang-Si Have Been
Burned Along with Hospital
and College.
THREE BATTALIONS ARE
RUSHED TO THE SCENE
Missionaries Were Warned in
Time to Escape Anti For
eign Rioters uprisings
Before.
(American News Service)


Canton. China, Nov. 12.-Refugees
arriving here today by boat from the
Province of Kwang-Si reported that
practically all the American Missions
had been destroyed by a revolt against
foreigners, which is raging throughout
the American Presbyterian church.
the hospital and the American college
were burned. Three battalions Of
troops have been sent from here to
quell the disturbances. At Lienchou,
the Kwang-Si Province, the mission
in charge of Doctors Machle and
Ross. and also Mrs. Ross. Mr.. Carver.
Mr.. Kunkle. Mr.. and Mrs. Edwards
and Miss Patterson was attacked.
Only by timely warning were the
missionaries able to escape from the
anti-foreign rioters.
The uprising was totally unexpect-
ed by the missionaries. No disturb
ances have occurred in the Kwang-Si
Province for nearly two months and
the Americans believed themselves to
be on the most friendly terms with
the Chinese.
Two months ago there was an upris-
ing which was not taken as q demon
stration solely against the foreigners.
but chiefly yas4a--pEotest by the ma
tives against additional taxes.
There has been considerable uneasi-
ness among American missionaries in
China, however, since the riots of last
April and May, when scores of build
ings erected by Americans in various
missionary colonies were destroyed
and attempts made on the lives of the
missionaries.
At that time the riots were centered
in Chang Sha, near Pekin and the for
eigners were given refuge by British
warships. Big posters announcing
that all the missionaries would be.kill-
ed we're placarded throughout the
Hankow where fresh outbreaks were
feared.
The trouble in Aprin grew grave
when 5000 foreign drilled troops join
ed the rioters after making a feeble
attempt to guard the governor of the
Province.
The riots at that time were caused
mainly because Of rice famine which
was sweeping that part of the coun-
try. The foreigners were blamed by
the ignorant class Of Chinese for the
food deficit and were soon melted into
riot by fanatics.
