Fos Oun OWN ContesronDENT

With regard to the unruly students of Shuenking, where much agitation ed an anti-foreign character "has Jately gone on, the former are now Teagued with soldiers to "redress foreign affairs!"

These unruly elements, a young man. has just been telling me, Captured a foreign missionary, but Seem to have been prevented from doing any harm to him through the interference of Gen. Ho Kuang-lich.

They also went, into the Church, and insisted on holding forth to the Congregation, and when the latter got up to go they shut the doors said, "you must listen."

Mr. informant went on to tell me that at first the feelings of the gathering were directed against German, English and all foreigners indiscriminately; but he and some others (mentioning the name of one who has also been a pupil at the Mienchow school), took the disaffected ones and exhorted them, to remember what the Church really stands for. They then left off in-Giscriminate persecution and con~ centrated on the English!
