DEVOTION TO RULER
KOREANS SHOW HIGH DEGREE OF
PATRIOTISM.
Had
Decided Freely to Give Their
Lives to Warn Emperor of
What They Considered
Crave Danger.
Cut of Korea conns a Mory of the
fantiticttl tUvoMun shown to the shad
ow emperor of the land by those of
his subjects who still resent the rule
of ihe Japanese and view each move
, (f their virtual masters with deep
, suspicion. In tills Instance several pa
triots were willing to let themselves
he run over by a railroad train If only
his majesty might be warned by their
death that he was flying Into the trap
; set for his fiet by Prince lto.
1 A month ago the emperor announced
that he was going to leave Seoul
and take a trip to Fusan, the most
t easterly city of (he peninsula and
I wholly a Japanese settlement. This
was an unprecedented thing for the
emperor to do, since for countless gen
' orations Korean kings and emperors
had bu n content to sit In the hall of
' congratulations In the Mulberry palace
; at Seoul and let subjects from other
! i arts of the land come to them to pay
' homage. Ik spite the protests of the
! patilots Prince lto, who wat engineer
I ing the trip, ruh d and the emperor set
, out over the Seoul Fusan railway to
; visit the seaport at the otlier terminal,
i It bet nine known by the Koreans
I along the route that the Japanese bat
! tleship Azutna was to anchor In the
'. harbor of Fusan and that a part of the
! welcoming ceremonies that were to
occur In Fttsati was to be a luncheon
i to the emperor on board the (ship.
Immediately the rumor urew to the
conviction that as soon as Prince lto
i had the mperor snfely on the A.uma's
tiecK ancror
would be hoisted and the
! Inst of the line of Korean ni!"rs would
; he whisked off to Japan, there to die
i In a dungeon.
! Teil aps the simple Koreans had
I pome justification for bellt'Vlnn that
! the crafty resldent enernl would like
! to execute a roup like that; certainly
' the hand cf the Japanese hail made
j.,,, Ht a rt llTIl? moves on
the Imperial
chess board at Seoul that even a du
plication of the murder that was done
In the Mulberry palace some years ago
at the .Instance of a Japanese minister
would not scein Improbable to the Ko
reans. At any rate the emperor had ht9
luncheon on beard the battleship In
Fnsan harbor and was put safely back
on his own territory n?,fiin. During
the course of the luncheon Prince lto
mnde conversation hy telllni; the pup
pet ruler that he had learned that at
Taiku, one of the larse towns on the.
line cf the railway, a party of pa
triots, convinced that the emperor
was going to his doon had determined
to lay themselves on the rails as his
train approached the station. They
believed that by tills act of sacrifice
their monarch niiht be made to see
that
he was approaching Immediate
dancer.
The patriots had been dissuaded by
a very material Japanese policeman.
In Memory of -
Old New Knuland graveyards are
not the only ones which contain cu
rious epitaihs. The old-time dweller
of Maine who "tiled of a falling tree,"
as bis headstone asserts, had a fellow
. ,i.., ,, i ,,..(,.ii- i
n misfortune in fai off Austialla. as Is
shown by V. A. Haillie-firohnian's
"The Tyrol and the Tyrolese."
A wooden slab, painted with the rep
resentation of a prostrate tree tinder
which lies a man in spread-eagle atti
tude, bears testimony to the violent
death of "Johann Lemberger, aged
524 years. This upright and virtu
ous youth was squashed by n falling
tree."
The record of Michael Gerstner Is
even more succinct and convincing. Ho
"Climbed up, fell down, and was dead."
Youth's Companion.
Defense cf Canned Products.
' That foods properly canned do not
deteriorate with age was a statement
made at a dinner of ranners In Chica
go a few days ago. "Suppose a custom
er deRlred a can of corn on February
22. HI20," said one of the speakers,
"and was given corn canned In 1!)0!).
It would be rejected with a demand
for 'something fresher,' and, although
the lfibO article would be found as
fresh as that of K0 it would bo lost.
At a recent banquet In London canned
fruit taken from the ruins of I'onipeil
was found to he fresh and fine. There
should be a law to compel the canning
nf all products In such a manner that
they would keep for ages."
Telegraph Letters.
A novelty In correspundencp, re
cently Inaugurated by Ihe French post,
office department, has met with such
success that It might he tiled all over
the world. This Is Ihe telegraphic
letter. The hours between 9 p. m.
nnd 4 a. in. are not busy ones for the
Frc neh telegraphic linos. So the postal
authorities decided to turn these hours
to some use. Therefore, If one misses
the post for a provincial town In
Fianc; to-day tine can at th rate of
too words for 20 rents have the letter
telegraphed and delivered by the first
ot next morning. The scheme is
very simple and Is working admirably
In Paris.
Quantity.
"Don't you admire the bl: hats that
women are wearing?"
, "Well," answered Mr. Meekton, "I
must say they look more lilio the
mom y's worth." 1
COVER UP DEFECTS
REASON FOR CLOTHING THE
MAN FORM DIVINE.
HU-
According to Writer in London Peri
odical, Vanity Is Responsible for
Garments Prescribed by
Present Fashion.
It was I be opinion of (Ytawuyo. a
noble African monarch who despised
all garments, that we took to clothing
to keep i nrsclvcH clean, because we
were too lazy to wash ourselves. This
however, was an error on his majesty's
part. The simple fact Is that we
adopted tleihcs because we were
nsbanicd of our appearance, says a
writer in London Ideas.
To lu Kin with, leg coverings were.
Invented to conceal bony knees and
shapeless calves. Hoots were urtfully
devised to curtain off ugly feet from
the public gaze and silence loud Jeers.
The hat. It Is easy to see, was the
crafty invention of some
patriarch with a bald head,
anxious to hide it in order
could cut a youthful figure
frivolous
who was
that he
with the
ladies.
Gloves were devised by pretentious
women of the lower middle class In
Hereulatirum, who wanted to pope as
gc ntU 'fi.Ik. Having to do their own
housewoilt, they hit upon this Ingeni
ous pliin of covering the redness and
roughm sH of their hands. Thus they
were able to cut a dash and delude so
ciety Into the belief that they kept
servants. lloire the name "kid"
gloves.
Socks derived their name originally
from shocks, as describing the effect
frequently produced on the mind by
the spectacle of feet in their naked
size and simplicity.
Shirts, and, after them, doublets and
coats, were resourcess to cover pigeon
breasts, hollow chests and curved
spines. The collar Is a development
of the silken scarf or bandage, first
worn by that hideous old porcupine,
Kamoses I., pharaoh of Egypt, to con
ceal n boil on his neck.
Comitig to the face, we find the
veil. This was Introduced owing to
the annoyance occasioned to King
Ptolemy by the count i nauco of one of
his ladies. She developed a squint,
and one day the king, being uncertain
whether she was eyeing him or not,
shouted furiously: "Cover that wom
an's face!" The offensive countenance
was Instantly obscured hy a window
curtain torn down by Si resourceful
courtier. And thus veils for ob
jectionable! faces rapidly became pop
ular. Now, we have been told, and are
constantly being told again, by count
less scientists, that In strength and
beauty we are a deteriorating race.
Our forefathers and mothers had
their little flaws In figure, but, coin
pared with us, they were perfect
Venuses and Adonises.-
A high authority says that "scarce
ly one man In a hundred Is properly
proportioned, and- most women would
he shapeless without the cunning
curves of their stays." Another stern
authority says: "We are a physically
degenerate people, round shouldered,
sunken lolned, narrow chested, crook
ed ribbed, splay fooled, knock kneed,
short winded and weak backed."
So, on the whole, clothes are not
only desltable, but Indispensable. To
cast them off and permit an astonished
universe to see us as we really are
would be a gieat mistake.
Hungry Thespians.
They looked like nrtors, or rather
they looked as If they would have
been uciors if some manager with
more than the usual discernment would
recognize their ability and give them
a Job, says "The Stroller" In the Port
land (Me.) Hxprcss. Just now they
were staring through the window of n
popular-priced restaurant In Congress
street absorbed in the unerring ac
curacy of the chef as the griddle cakes
were flipped Into the air by him. only
to fall gracefully hack Into the grease
mark they had Just quitted. The tall
man jingled some keys in his pocket
nnd the little one pulled his belt an
other notch.
"Lord!" said the big one; "I'm hun
gry enough to eat my o.vn words."
"I'm In just as bad," complained the
little one. "I leel as though I could
bolt a front door."
Figures on Drink Question.
Speaking before the Church of Eng-:
land Temperance society recently tho
bishop of London said that, as the re-!
suit or nn Inquiry regarding the drink
evil, 15 doctors stated that In the
middle class there was a decrease of
drinking, SS In fashionable practice
spoke of the Increase among the well-to-do.
and H.I of the Increase among
wot king women. At the request of the
home office '.M London public houses
were watched for four days, and IW,
C4rt women, with 10,171 children, en
tered. The chief cause, said the
bishop, of drinking among the well-to-do
was want of occupation; among the
poorer classes It was overwork and
overworry. American Horses for Brazil.
