With this head in their possession the rabhor hastened off to the Loh-hah magistrate, a Haarshow man, named Lob, and told a plausible story as to the way in which they had been set upon in the night by the military mandarin, and how they had only just weaped with their lives, bringing the hood of one of their murdered companions with them.Yangtens Insuraues Asegaiation-Tlk 97 per Just as they Buished their story, the military mandarin and his two brathas arrived, and gave a tras account of what bad taken place. "Ton shall all stay here until the morning," said the Magistrate, and then we will go and Onquire into the matter." But this would not satisfy the rabbers. "You must led us rotura ut

and so caused the death of fourteen persons, wa

Iought perhaps to add that when the question of compensation was being talked over, the military mandarin sink net compensa tion for my wife, hemel ena get another; I ask not compensation for my children, because Imay have soise mers; but I do as compuSG+ tion for my old mother. My mother is gone. alae! I caù gaver got another mother."--M. G. Daily News Correspondent.
