A Winnipeg telegram last month stated that "a number of Doukhabor women, started to resume the pilgrimage in search of Christ, which was checked with so much diffealty last year. While the men were working in the Helds the women, having stripped themselves taked, started on their journey.

The methods of both sexes of this extraordinary body of fanatics seem very thorough.

CHUELTY TO ANIMALS.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE "DAILY PEKSS.” Hongkong, 16th September. BIR,--Allow me through the medium of your valuable paper to bring to the notice of the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals an instance of gross omelty to a dog practised by a tukong. The man was dragging along the streets to the Police Station on apparatly stray dog, and the poor animal was struggling Lnd suffering a good deal. I agree that stray doge must be got rid of, but by all utvans do so without causing suffering to the poor beasts. The present system of the polica here for catching stray dogs-a rattan nouse at the end of a long bamboo pole-is ridiculous and I would commend it to the notice of the Society to condemn this system and get the Polion authorities to adopt some other means for catch- ing these dogs which will cause no unnecessary suffering to the poor animals.
