In 1876 Japan and Corea concluded a

In 1876 Japan and Corea concluded a
treaty of amity and commerce, and
soon afterward a Japanese trading set
tlement was established at Fusan. The
trade has never been considerable. For
the year 1877 the gross value of i'm
ports and exports was $448, pol Early
in October the Corean local authorities,
evading the stipulations of the treaty
permitting duty-free trade, levied tax
on imports passing into the interior
from the Japanese settlement, and a
corresponding duty on produce sold to
the Japanese. A tax of about twenty
per cent. on this small trade in coun-
try where tine poverty Of the people is
proverbial, can have but one effect, and
the settlers finding their business inter-
rupted, while a demonstration sufficient
ly alarming to compel the Corean
authorities to promise to reconsider the
tariff and give an answer within thirty
days. The Japanese government have
taken up firm attitude On the 21st
of November the Hiyei Kan, an iron
clad man-ot-war. sailed for the Corea,
with Mr. Hanabusa, secretary of the de-
| partment Of foreign affairs, as an envoy

his mission be fruitless. strong measures

Accurate Tunneling,

An exceedingly difficult piece of I'M
derground engineering. and one which
furnishes an admirable illustration of
the accuracy of calculation based on
scientific principles, has just been COM
pleted in Pennsylvania. at the Hamp-
ton mine of the Delaware, Lackawanna
and Western railroad company. The
Scranton Republican says: The NINE
has been idle for improvements for
some time, aud the work under notice
Is the construction OF. tunnel in the
rock vein, making one slope serve the
purpose for which two slopes and a
dip were formerly employed, effecting
considerable saving in men, mules,
and machinery, and shortening the dis
lance from the scene of the mining
operations to the foot of the shaft by at
least 1000 feet. The survey was begun
six months ago by Mr.. Joseph P. Phil
lips, mine surveyor, under directions Of
Mr.. Snyder, the company's chief min
ing engineer, and from the outset was
attended with the greatest difficulty.
Over seven-eights of a mile, principally
through old tumbledown workings, had
to be surveyed, and IS sights, at as
many different angles, taken before
reaching the point opposite the shaft
from which operations for the tun-
mel should be comm enced. The
most difficult feature was to
strike the exact starting point,
SO that the tunnel, when COM
pleted, would be found mathematically
correct on grade and point. A varia-
ton OF few feet up, down, right, or
left would entail additional cost and la
Dor in going over the task to secure uni
formity, SO that it is not to be wondered
at that those esponsible for the work
regarded it with some anxiety until the
workmen met in the middle of the tun-
mel, and proved the problem to be cor
rect. At least quarter of a mile of the
survey was made through old workings
where the roof had fallen in, and In
some places the space was no more than
two feet high, so that Mr.. Phillips and
his assistan were compelled to crawl
| through it. The survey was plotted on
scale of 100 feet to the inch, and the
result, when the men who had been
ttanneling in opposite directions cleared
away the last barrier, and met face to
face, was of the most satisfactory char
acter. Every line came out just as it
had been computed, and the work was
com plimented on alisides.'

The great suspension bridge that is

the price paid for land On each shore
and the, cost of construction, $9,75O,OOO

4 Gang Of Western Outlaws.

An Omaha telegram Of Dec.
18th says: Further particulars were
reciveed to-day concerning the arrest
of the robbers named Harrington,
Manse. Ruby, Howard, Oleson, and the
kid" near Rock Creek, Wy. T. It
appears that the gang sent one of their
number into Rock Creek to look over
the ground and ascertain now they
could break into the railroad station
house, hotel, and stores. The man
gave his comrades away, revealing the
whole plan and whereabouts OF the
gang to Herbert Thayer, proprietor Of
the motel, whereupon the Union Pacific
officers and civil authorities were noti-
fed. A posse Of men under Sheriff
Nottag, Of Laramie, was sent on a spe-
cial train from Laramie. and was
conducted by the man to the outlaws
camp north of Rock Creek. The
outlaws were completely surrounded
and easily captured. This same gang
is composed of the men who murdered
Tip Vincent, a scout, and Deputy Sher
iff Wlddow6eld about three months ago
at Elk Mountain, Vincent and Widow
field having been sent out to find their
camp, alter they had attempted to ditch
and rob a train by tearing up q rail near
Medicine Bow. This is an important
capture, and breaks up dangerous
band. The Union Pacific officials had
been expecting an attack for some time
from them. One of the band had previ-
ously been arrested at Cheyenne on a
trumped-lp charge, and lodged in Jail,
where he now is. The railroad COM
pany feared that their pay-car would be
robbed on its last trip, but arrived at
Cheyenne ahead of time, and thus de-
feated the plan. The man in jail is
thought to be the leaderyof the band.
The railroad com pany proposes to con
tinue the war on the road-agents with
unabated vigor and clean them all out.

The Public Schools.

The work on the public schools
is progressing in such manner us
to lead us to infer that it will be
completed in time for the schools
50 begin on the 10Th of September.
A great deal Of the repairing that
is being done this vacation should
have been attended to years ago,
and it has been nothing less than
gross mismanagemcnt that has al
lowed the school buildings 70 reach
their present dilapidated state Had
repairs been made IS they became
necessary, il would have taken but
a small sum Of money each year,
while the property would have
been in a good condition. As it is,
il now requires q much larger
amount to make the buildings in
habitable. During the past year il
was unsafe e DC il some rooms il
the buildings. Several times patch
q y plastering have fallen, barely
missing some Of the pupils.
Out side it Is no better Every
where neglect is apparent, and
every one who has the welfare OF
the community at heart will com
mend the Board Of Education in its
efforts 70 make the public schools
what they should be- The time
when people thought any old shan
Is good enough for a school house
has passed away and il is found
that pupils learn just as well, and
full better in q pleasant room, as in
one not fit for hogs pen. l..
