Torfurcs and Iluiniliutions of 3Ihr1ji
ary Women Nutled, Outraged and
Dead Bodies Throw to the Dogs. m
Tlie' Associajted Press repre
sentative in China, furnishes
some of the most revolting m-
stances of barbarity fnwhich
women missionaries were sacn-
ficed in the late uprising. There
is probably no horror conceived
by womanhood that they did not
endure, such as being marched
about nude and outraged time
after time, then slain and their
, . .
bodies thrown . to the dogs or
hung up to public gaze with the
bodies of children and others.
The dispatch claims to bo from
official and strictly reliable
sources.
There is no patience, it is said,
about Pekin with a lenient pol
icy.
it is believed that a severe
drubbing is necessary to prevent
future repetitions. Some atroc
ities against the Chinese are also
reported.
The Empress Dowager it is
said is after all vho were favor
able to the foreigners but makes
no investigations of barbarities
inflicted on them.

Will Help to Elect Him.
A dispatch sent out from
Goldsboro to the daily papers o
the. State, under date of the 1st,
says: '
'Prominent Republicans in the
State are of the opinion that' I
M Simmons will succeed Marion
Butler as Senator from North
Carolina, and are now taking af
fldavits with the view of estab
lishing that Simmons, as chair
man of the Democratic- execu
tive committee, carried the State
at the recent election by fraud,
hoping to prevent Simmons
being sworn in, or, in that event,
have him ousted. My informant
advises that Major Hiram -Grant
holds that the move will only be
partially successful, while Dis
trict Attorney Bernard holds
that Simmons will not be allowed
to take his seat at all."
If the Republicans want Mr.
Simmons elected United States
Senator they can secure that re
suit very promptly by making
war on him. Nothing will make
his success so sure as attacks
from that quarter. However,
the senatorial race is on and it
maybe that some of Mr. Sim
mons' friends have undertaken
to aid him by magnifying such
reports as the above. Those
can bo made to do most effec
tive, service for him. Statse
