TROOPS KILLED
 MANY BANDITS Chinese Government Sends Troops to Secure Release of
 Missionaries.

Hankow, Oct. 6.--Four thous- and government troops surround ed the town of Tsaoyang which was captured some time ago by bandits. The bandits seized four American and five Norwegian missionaries and have been hold ing them for ransom. The for eigners of the country wished to pay the demands of the bandits and secure the release of their countrymen but the government drowned on the scheme fearing that to do so would make every foreigner in the isolated parts of the republic an object of capture by bandits.
 When the foreigners failed to comply with the terms of the ban
 dits' demands they sacrificed the life of one of the American mis- sionary's children as evidence that they intended to kill all the
 foreigners if the money was not
 paid. The troops engaged the bandits in battle last night and killed two hundred of them. The government has offered a reward if the missionaries are
 rescued alive but the bandits are
 now keeping them to make terms with the troops. The government
 has assured the foreigners that everything possible will be done to protect the lives of the mis- SiUnarieS.

FIRE DESTROYS
 SEATTLE TIMES
Spirit City Paper Visited By Sec ond Fire In Seven Months--
 Loss $75, 100000.

Seattle, Oct. 6.--The Seattle Times building was visited by a fire carly this morning and the press and sterotyping rooms were damaged to the extent of at least S75,OOO, and the loss may be larger. The fire burned for two hours before the firemen were able to control the flames and inn mense clouds of smoke poured from the building. The work or checking the flames required the use of the entire city fire depart ment. The fire was confined to the basement and the first floor.
 Ten tiremen were overcome by the smoke and were carried from the burning building by their comrades and taken to the hos pital. where they were soon re- vived.
 Captain Braun is credited with haaving saved the lives of two thousand people who were crowd- ed near the building before the police lines were established. At the risk of his life, he craWled into the burning building, made his way through the heavy smoke and shut off the big gas main, which feeds the many linotppes used by the Times, thus prevent ing an explosion of gas which was sure to follow if the vent was allowed to remain open.

all movements for advancement, en-
couraglng education, upholding race
enterprise, and never for once forget
ting to tell parents to instill race pride
into their children, beginning before
and at birth of the child. Something
must be radically wrong in the train
ing OF our race along this line of race
pride when our men can have their
choice OF color from ebony black to
pure white, and yet are willing to hold
up whole race to ridicule and marry
a white woman simply because that
white woman feels that she is superior
TO him, and he must think so, too, or
he would not have married her.
we must go back and do our work
over again, because instances like that
of Jack Johnson show too plainly that
we need race pride.
The minister must be a safe conn
panion for the old and the young, and
beyond these earthly attributes he
must live on the heights where no
breath of scandal can reach that man
of God"
In this convening place of good pur-
poses and in the sight of these people
and within the lengthening shadows
OF these mountains that tower above
us, may we not find incentive from
| this conference to consecrate to the
noble work of spreading the gospel a
more united purpose and greater eff
fort, and may our deliberations result
in adding fresh glory to the church
and 10 the race.
