The Boxer Movement

A Missionary's Opinion

Renter gives an interview with the Rev A Sowetby, who hes been work ing for twenty years in China, and has j«Bt reached London from Pao-ting-fu Speaking of the nature and exteut of the Boxer movement, he said :—

The movement which began in January wai the direct outcome of the action of the ex-Governor of Shantung, «an «f tke strongest anti-foreign men in i hin», who originated ifc. He then enlisted the sympathies of the Empress Dowager, who ever sine® ha 4 fostered the movement by edicts, and by preventing its suppression. She even wtat to far as to warn the Imperial official* that if any Boxers were wonnded they would be held personally responsible. . , , First and fore moil, the Boxer movement it anti foreign rather than anti-missionary, bat, so far at tha missionaries are concerned, it is chiefly directed against Catholics in Chih-li and Shantung In this respect it ii a retaliatory movement for the occupation of Kiao- Ohsu This is no longer a missionary question, although many missionaries have suffered, and as they are more •ptn to attack, probably will suffer. It has 8 seamed much more serious proportions, inasmuch as tha foreign railway and other officials who are working in China at the invitation of the Ch nese Government are in jeopardy, and the whole of the import ant foreign colonies at Tientsin and Fekin are menaced. While I was at Fao ting fa there was a large Boxer camp outside the town, and drilling was goiflg on daily. Although this is a large and important military centre, the officials contented themselves by sendiag oat five Chinese officers to ask the Boxers to remain quiet, no other att< m it being made to deal with them. Another evidsnee of the connivance of the autho ities is to be found in the fact that a Boxer force was for several weeki drilling under the very eyes of the officials, and within sight of the foreign concession, without the least effort being made to disperse them. Li H»ng Chang's Version

Prince Li Hang Chang has offered the world his own version of who tba Boxers are, and what are their ainae, He said to a press interviewer :— •s rlhe Boxers are only a rabble of

stupid, ignorant people, led astray by fanaticism and anti-Christian feeling mto attacking the native Christians and then their foreign teachere, the missionarifte Ido not regard them as having any political motivep, or class thara in the same category as the secret societirs in China, whose object is rebellion and tf.e overthrowing of the dynasty. The Boxers are but common people: Their origin is, I think, due to the fact that continuous trouble with the native Christians has engendered ill feeliog among the peasantry, and as Christians in the law cases invariably gel the better of them they thought that th»y must practise physical extrcisei to be equal to the Christians. They commenced to attack the native converts, and then the missionaries. Th® reason is therefore partly due to anti-Ohristianism and fanaticism." Do you think the native Christians in instances are to blame for this spirit of opposition ?" " Yea Both Catholic and Proteatani missionaries often themselves give trouble. The Roman Catholics are most troublesome,"

PAID TO DIE.

lv a Chinese paper the statement is m^de thtt the men who have suffered punlshimn* for the recent murder of the mission >:ies v.ere not the real criminals. They /ere men who for a siipuUted snir. ot money consented to undergo th» ie ■p-.-ciive sen'encea. The man who delivered :h«How that killed Missionary B o"ke wa< sentenced to be beheaded. For i2OO, the p;\per says, he got an opium fitnd, wh • hid but a few months to live, to allow hitr.sflilf fro ba decapitated in his stead, and the substitute was duly killed. The second m«i was condemned to str»ngalat!on. The story says he paid a consumptive £120 to be strangled in his atead, and the third murderer got a third substitute to take life imprisonment in his place for £100. The remarkable story i ays tine 218 men, broken down in health, offered themselves as substitutes that they might perform one good ace for their parents before their lives were ended, by Raiding them a sum of money which to poor people In China would be a fortune. Tho Chinese law parmits such sabititatioa.

SCOTTISH HUMOUR.

The Rev. David Macr&e, in his "Penny-worth of Scottish Humour," tells several stories of old church beadles. Concerning one, James Dawson, beadle in North Albion Street Church, Glasgow, he B*ys :—Ar the time of tna marriage of the Prince of Waleu he had got one of the white and red peckeb handkerchiefs rhats were in vogue, embellished with ■tamped likene'aes of the Royal Heads Heads < f Britain and Denmark. One dny he was going up North Albion Street blowing his nose vigorously with his handkerchief for he had a bad cold in his head—when he suddenly met Professor Juhn Eadle. The professor stopped to have a word with him, and observing the handkerchief, said, '* You'vß gob a number of grand folk, Jamey, on that handkerchief of yours. * Ay, Doctor/said James, preparing for another blow, * i's the only chance I nae o'gettia' my nose into genteel society.'

Probable War Honours.

People are already discussing the rewards wlich will be distributed at the ecd of the war. There is little doubt that Lord Roberts will be made em Earl and given a grant of £50,000, a course for which there are sufficient precedents. Lord Kitchener will probably elect to have » money grant rather than a step in the Peerage. General French certainly deserves something very good ; even the most captious of our Continental critics have not been able to help admiring the dashing leadership of this great cavalry cffi.er. By the way, Mrs French, though not much seen in general society, is a very charming and clever woman. She was a Miss Selby- Lowndes, and one of her sisters is Mrs Contti-Trotter 3 of BusS, Midlothian.
