GREENS WERE SAVED BY THEIR CHILDREN Miss Greig Relates Their Frightful Experiences. WERE BRUTALLY TREATED Party Was Subjected to the Most Hor Horrible - rible Horrible Torture - Twice Sentenced to Death - Held as Hostages, They Were Finally Rescued by the Allies. Pao-Ting-Fu, Nov. 22. When the story of the period of blood and massa massacre - cre massacre in China is told, few of its chapters will be as brilliant as the narrative of the Green party,, who were found al almost - most almost dead by the allied expedition. The tale of their hardship and abuse and al almost - most almost miraculous preservation has leaked out to the world by piece meal, but its' details of suffering and cruelty were told for the first time by Miss Greig. Mr. and Mrs. Green, members of the British-Chinese Inland mission, with their two children, a boy and a girl, aged 5 and 3 years, and Miss Greig, an assistant, were stationed at Huai-Lu, a small town 120 miles south of this place. During the first week of July news of massacres of missionaries were received in Pao-Ting Fu and also news of the de destruction - struction destruction of the mission at Shun-Ti-Fuh, Chao-Chi and Shen-Yi and of the mov moving - ing moving of the troops from the Shan-Si province toward Tien-Tsin to attack the foreigners. On hearing of the affairs, the little party moved away to the mountains on the advice of a mandarin, to go into hiding. Some friendly Chinese showed the party a small cave, where they remained secreted for two days and three nights, suffering the utmost discomforts, their hiding place being only about 6x4, with water dripping from the roof. On the third day their servants discovered them and led them to a farm house, where the entire party lived in one small room for a month. On Aug. 13 the Boxers discovered their hiding place, from which their host had made a tunnel to a cave a short distance away. The Box Boxers - ers Boxers demanded that the little band bo given up to them. On hearing their host being beaten and tortured, Mr. Green determined to give himself up and do what he could to save his wife and little ones and Miss Greig. As the missionary appeared at the mouth of the cave he was immediately shot in the face with a charge of fine pellets. Wounded and bleeding, he pleaded for the women and children, but to no avail. The Boxers ordered them from the tun tunnel - nel tunnel and the frightened women came forth, expecting death or worse. Sentenced to Death. Knives and swords were held over their heads and all their possessions were taken from them except their clothing. They were then made to march to Huai-Lu, their former home. Here they were met by the mandarin upon whose advice they had gone into hiding. This man beat and abused Mr. Green and reproached him for not com coming - ing coming to him for advice and protection. The mandarin then said he would send the party to Cheng-Ting-Fu. The party started on their journey. About 3 miles out they were overtaken by the Boxers who had originally captured them and on reaching Cheng-Ting-Fu were re refused - fused refused admission to the city because of their escort. They were carried through the country to Pao-Ting-Fu. Loaded with abuse, mistreated and suffering the place literally swarming with Boxers demanding their lives, the hapless pris prisoners - oners prisoners were escorted to the yamen of the chief magistrate, Ting Yuen, who re refused - fused refused to receive them. Then occurred a strange incident. The chief Boxer himself pleaded for his prisoners. He expressed sorrow at see seeing - ing seeing the condition of the prisoners and said he would send them to Tien-Tsin. He also provided them with sufficient money to assure food on the journey. That morning they were taken to a boat, but found neither troops nor pass passports. - ports. passports. They were in fact again in the hands of the Boxers, who took them some 30 miles down the river and on Wednesday afternoon landed them in a marsh and informed them that Ting Yuen had ordered that they should be put to death and their bodies disposed of. At this time the children were un undoubtedly - doubtedly undoubtedly the means of saving the lives of the entire party, for the same Boxer who had previously interceded for them and had evidently conceived a great friendliness for the little ones, cried and told Mr. Green they must try to reach Tien-Tsin alone. Duplicity of the Chinese. As night fell, Mr. Green, almost help helpless - less helpless from his wounds, made his way, accompanied by his little party, to a house and was told by the owner that a friend of his would take them to Tien- Tsin. Then he left ostensibly to get a boat and make arrangements for their escape. After a while the villager re returned - turned returned bringing a large party of Boxers. The mob burst in the doors of the hut and unmercifully beat with swords and staves Mr. Green, the women and chil children. - dren. children. The Boxers decided to take their captives to a village 1 mile away and devised the means of transportating and torturing them at the same time. Mr. Green's left hand was bound to his left foot; Mrs. Green and Miss Greig were tied hands to feet, left hand to left foot and right hand to right foot, and the little girl was treated the same way. Spear handles were then thrust under their arm pits and they were carried to their destination. In the village of Sman they were ex examined - amined examined as to their identity. Their story was laughed at and a deputation was sent to Fao-Ting-Fu to ascertain the truth and determine the fate of the cap captives. - tives. captives. On the third day the deputation returned from Pao-Ting-Fu and the cap captives - tives captives were told that Ting Yuen had previously ordered their death and now repeated the sentence. Providentially the civil section had heard of'the defeat of the Boxers at Taku and elsewhere and ordered the prisoners to be kept alive to be used as hostages. Woman Burned to Death.

TRAINS RUN THROUGH A COLORADO CYCLONE Coach Windows Blown Out and Lights Extinguished. GREAT PROPERTY DAMAGE About 150 Houses Demolished at Colo Colorado - rado Colorado Springs - Principal Streets of the City Piled With Wreckage - No Fatalities Reported. Denver, Nov. 21. Owing to the demolition of telegraph and telephone wires south and west of Denver, little news of the havoc caused by yesterday's hurricane in these portions of Colorado has reached here. Delayed trains brought fragmentary news of the storm at Colorado Springs and along the road from Pueblo to Den Denver. - ver. Denver. Up to 6:30 o'clock last night a hurricane was still raging and, if any anything, - thing, anything, increasing in force. As far as could be learned there had been no fatal fatalities - ities fatalities up to that time, but great damage had been done to property. Nearly every train that came in bore marks of the storm's fury. Coach win windows - dows windows were blown out, the glass in the cabs were broken and the headlights and coach lamps extinguished. From Fremont to Monument the trains ran through a storm with sand blowing in such volumes that at times the en engineers - gineers engineers could not see the smokestacks of their engines. Engineer Desmond of the Denver and Rio Grands was the last engineer to run safely through the hurricane. He left Pu Pueblo - eblo Pueblo at 7 o'clock and after leaving Foun Fountain - tain Fountain ran into the hurricane. From that time on, except during a stop at Colo Colorado - rado Colorado Springs, he was compelled to run by guess work it being impossible to get train orders. It was only at intervals in passing through cuts that the track ahead could be seen. The cab windows were blown out by the wind and it was impossible to keep the headlight or cab lights lit. A lantern was placed in the headlight, but the wind was so strong that even this well protected light was extinguish extinguished. - ed. extinguished. Not until Monument was reached were train orders to be had. The storm was left behind after the train reached Palmer lake. Other engineers reported that the flying sand was so thick during the height of the storm that it was im impossible - possible impossible to see the stacks of the engines. Passenger train No. 2on the Denver and Rio Grande got through to Colorado Springs only through the heroism of one of the train crew. When the train ar arrived - rived arrived at Sand creek at Kelker the sand was flying so thick that the engineer could not see the bridge and he stopped in the cut to wait in the hope that the storm would abate. One of the train crew volunteered to crawl over the roadbed to the bridge and inspect the structure. The bridge is nearly 200 feet long and is about a quarter of a mile the other side of the station at Kelker. It was utterly im impossible - possible impossible to stand against the storm and the trainman, with his mouth and nose covered, crawled on his hands and knees for nearly half a mile, examined the bridge carefully and returned. No. 2 passed over safe and after waiting at Colorado Springs, uncertain that the right of way could be had, ran through the storm to Monument, where orders were received. In passing through the storm the train was damaged to a considerable extent, but no one was injured. WORST STORM EVER KNOWN About 150 Houses Were Wrecked at Colorado Springs.
