A MISSIONARY MURDERED.
(Received Last Night, 9.25 o'clock.)
SYDNEY, August 3. Tho Minindi, from the Islands, has brought the news of the murder of Mr Daniels, a member of the South Sea Evangelical Mission at Uru. He had almost concluded an ope-i air evening service, when a native, who had been concealed, shot him in the breast. Tho missionary cried; "Lord save mo!" and fell dead. •
INQUISITIVE JAPANESE
Professor MacMillan-Brown, of Christehurch. who was a passenger by the Minindi from the Solomons, states that it appears that the fact that within the past few months at least one party of Japanese has visited the Islands in a cutter, is' accounted for by their being blown out of their course. The explanation is regarded as thin. The general impression is that they are looking for suitable sites for rubber plantations.
