A MISSIONARY WRITES.
NEW YOIUC JUNE 20 -M n 1-Mim.
Terry Amerlcnn mlslonary who Is be-
lieved to linve beon killed In tho Boxer
rioting near Tien Tsln wrot a letter
which has Jut been received In Brookin
In which she says:
"Wo hear so many rumors that we do
not know just what to believe. 1 cannot
feel sorry that a clmnue of some kind
Is coming. Tho peop'.o themselves say
things cannot bo worso than they hnvo
been and will welcome any change which
promises better government Tho condi-
tion of things throughout the country
this year Is dreadful beyond power to
expresw. Even in tho best years there
Is poverty such as we know nothing of In
America. This year thero was a failure
of crops and n.s a result many families
usually In comfortablo circumstances
were reduced to poverty.
"All around us people wore dying of
cold and hunger church members were
In a very destitute condition. Chaff pea-
such stuff were about cone. Same had
been 11 vine on bark on mulberry trees
but even such men have a limit. "Wo
will help such members and as many
nut husks sweet potato vinos and all
more as we can but there will be many
wo will have no means of relieving. Pes-
tilence will How In tho watce of famine
as an Inevitable result. The people say
they do not fear war as nruch as they
fear starvation. But the horrors of the
two together will be dradful. When vast
numbers of Chinese- soldiers commonco
'to llee before their enemies they will
spread nil around the country and In
crease the devastation.
"It is not much use to write rumors
and predictions. We expect to hear any
may have become facts In history before
day that troops liave landed. Events
my letter reaches you. Tho war wi'l
serve to show the corruption of the whole
system of government as nothing olso
could. Public funds have been squan-
dered no one knows how. I cannot help
hoping that tho humiliation of China at
tllils time will be complct enough for them
to realize It If the present dynasty Is
not overthrown now It must bo sooner
or later for the peop'e have long been
dissatisfied with It."
