Her body was cut in five differ .. ent places?each cut being a deep fa flesh wound. The gashes ranged from four to twelve inches in length. This not satisfying the w perpetrator or perpetrators of the deed, the poor woman was set on ^ fire and all clothing burned from ^ h-*r body. J in This crime is shocking in every ^ detail. A helpless woman cut and 18 burned to death in the dead hours .j of the night in the woods, nearly a mile from any one's house. Iler r screams for mercy sounding in the night air only led to the (lis ^ covery of the deed. The unfortu nate woman lingered in her mis- g| ery until Tuesday, the 13th inst., when death came. cc A murder most foul ! A blacker a i crime cannot be conceived.

Henry J.?ckson, Ben Jackson. |j; John Jackson and Tom Steen, ali white, were brought to Chester- tc field on Thursday, the l"?rh inct and lodged 111 j?11.

It is said j fc that Cassie Boan left home on i fa Sunday afternoon, the 11th inst., t.?i and that nothing was seen or to heard of her until her mutilated Ti body was found in the weeds. h? The case will come up before fo Ji. Ige Klugh at the April term of; ti court. w Cassie Boan was single, agod|jj 20. She was part Indian, tie daughter of (ieorge Roan. The ti poor creature was set on fire ; all the clothing burnt, from her body, i and when found was screaming t\ crying for help. Skin would slip /,/, off when touched. There was a bloody trail of about half a milt along where Hhe hud crawled ovei logs and tried to escape. Doss Jackson, John Johnson, one of f,,, rne accused, Abb Kirkley a mi Jim Verner went to her after first "1' going to each other's house col 111 looting a crowd. She asked John Jackson to take her hand, but tie wi refused. The others asked tier name and she told it. They threw ? an overcoat over her and went away for help. Sam Woodward carried her from her father's house Sunday afternoon to the house of Vane. Meltons, about two miles away, hp: From that place she went away ^ with Tom Steen and James Jack __ son. Nothing more was heard of her until found in the woods.

Washington, March 20.?Th cretary of the Navy has receiv I a cablegram from Admira atson stating that the gnnboa heeling has proceeded to Taku le will be relieved by the Oon ?rd about May 10, and will go a tual in the summer to Ounalae i, on the Alaskan ooast. The State department is in landary to devise means to ren jr effective protection to Amei in missionaries at Shan Tung tie difficulty lies in the fact tha ie missionaries have in mos ises gone as far as 200 miles ir nd and are thus beyond reac any aid that can be extende om a war ship. Minister Cor sr's advices show that the situa on is further complicated by th ct that the location of the pre? it trouble iR so far inland as t ake it difficult to de'errain hether or not the "Boxers" ar lerating in Shan Tung or acroi le border in Pechili province the threatened missionaries ar i Western Shan Tung, theu irther question arises as to wh chargeable with their protec on, China or Germany. Th tact extent of the Germa >here of influence is not definite known here. It is 200 mile om Kiao .Ohou, the Germa raport, to the western border < han Tung, but inasmuch as th ermans have claimed exclusiv mtrol of railroad franchises au [id like concessions throughot le province, it is presumed thu ley have assumed responaibilit i well. At any rate the Chines ivernment has been deterre om attempting to exercise mi ary authority in that section h le attitude of German offieia rid that is the reason for the ii hility of the Pekin governmor > meet Mr. Conger's demand fi unatory measures against th Boxers." The German minis,er at I'eki as informed Mr. (yonder that h jvernment is willing to exten > the American missionary ithin the German sphere of 11 aence the same measure of pr< iction as is accorded to (iitimh issionaries. This, however, at very reassuring, in view ( ic fact that the German militar rces in Shan Tung have not t \r as it* known, been augmente p a point where they are equi i policing the whole provine tie State department has n< jen advised that these Gerrna rces have extended their open ous into Western Shan Futij here the imperilled missionary e located, nor has there bee iy assurance that any exped on ih organized in that direi on.
