CHINESE MISSIONS.
TWO STATIONS BURNED.
RESULT OF A FANATICAL RISING,
SYDNEY, this day.
Eastern news states that two mission stations at Kuchen belonging to the Plymouth Brethren were destroyed by fanatical Chinese. Five lady teachers had a narrow escape. They sought refuge in the house of a European, which was burned. They eventually managed to escape to the hills. A Catholic mission was also attacked, but before serious damage was done the authorities sent a force and suppressed the riot.
