THE CHINJESE OUTRAGES.
The conilltion of the Aincricnii anil UiiRlibh
missionaries 111 the interior of China is very
precarious. Tim rebels known ns Yrgcturiaus
teem to ho beyond Hi" control of the governor
of the province or that otlicial is in sympathy
with them in their determination to ex
terminate nil foreigners. Tim hold of the
Central government nt Peking appears to be
very loose, and altliougli-promises to punish
the offenders will no doubt bo made in reply
to the representations made by the American J
and English ministers it is questionable if
the punishments decreed .can be executed,
and our government will bt powerless to do
more than exact a monetary indemnity. Wo
have a liect of good warships in Chinese
waters, capable of utterly destroying any
seaport they have, but the wisdom of punish
ing a lot of Innocent people who are ignorant
of the cause of their punishment is open to
terious doubt, more especially so as tho per
petrators of tho outrages are Ju rebellion
against tho government of the country. It
would also be a violation of the usages of
nations. If the l'erkiug government is
powcrless,it would promptly settlo the trouble
if the mandarin governing the province were
taken in hand by Ministers Dcnly and
O'Connor, backed by their respective ilects.
This nieaus of settling the almir has been
suggested and appears to be the only feasible
one so far, as tho powvrlcssuess of the Chinese
government sinco its disastrous encounter
witli Japan is apparent to all.
We cannot, however, butadmirothecourago
of the Christian men and women who, in tho
face of such dangers, take their lives in their
hands in their heroic ollbrts to serve their
Master in attempting to bring the religion of
Christ to these followers of liuddba, and we
trust some means of insuring them protec
tion will speedily be found.
Sknatok Tillman and Mayor Strong gave
an Abbury Park audience their views as to
sumptuary laws in South Carolina and Xew
York, on Sunday. The former thinks the
Mayor cannot enforce the Sunday closing
lav? and that his dispensary law is the only
effectual liquor law. Senator Tillman's con
science is'not quite so squeamish in regard to
disfranchising negroes as it is in putting ob
stacles in tho way of whites and negroes
getting a drink when dry.
Tub chief of the weather bureau discusses
this hot weather very scientifically, dividing
tho, temperature into two kinds, tho "air
temperature" and what ho calls the "sensible
temperature," or temperature a man feels.
Tho most sensihlo temperature for this season
is one of 75 or 78 degrees.
The summer days are on tho wane and

memory.
