Now It's an Aluminium Wedding.
The already long list of jubilees and
family celebrations has been enriched
by a novelty in the line Of wedding fes-
t~ivities. The family and friends of a
rich manufacturer living in the neigh
borhood of Berlin deemed the interval
between the silver and golden wedding
to be altogether too long, and halving
it introduced last week an aluminium
wedding by offering the happy couple
on the occasion of the completion OF
37H years Of welded life a choice va
>riety of presents made of aluminium. II
this novel idea should take, the Alumni
um industry has a great future before it.
The Prussian capital, of all German
cities the one most given to societies and
fetes of every possible name and descrip-
ton, has since gone ven one better by
celebrating a seven year wedding, which
the friends of the parties. with true Ber-
lin humor, christened the jubilee of the
seven years war.-Paris American

The Position of Corea in the Japan
ese-Chlnese War at Last
Detailed.

AOSoAAOo'
SAN Francisco, Sept. 6.-Yoko-
hama advices Of August 2 throw a
confirmatory light on the position
of Corea's king. 1t is now definitely
known that the king favors Japan,
but up to the time of the armed
visit Of the Japanese envoy, had
been coerced by the Ming family,
to which the queen belonged, into
recognizing China's power.
The Japanese envoy, with his
troops, secured unrestrained con-
~versation with the king, thereby
learning the kings true feeling.
Japan Immediately took steps to
support the king, and the Ming
family was driven from the minis
try and the Tai Won Kun family,
to which the king belongs and
which favors Japan, was placed in
power. The kings father, who was
deposed years ago by the Ming
influence, is now prime minister.
The evidence of recent acts shows
the king is sincere in support Of
the Japanese and his willingness
to accept Japan's proposed reforms.
These are designed not only to pre-.
vent China interfering hereafter,
but also to give the whole Corean
people an opportunity and power
to improve their condition. Several
in force are:
The adoption Of a new royal til
tie which has no significance OF in
feriority to a higher monarch as
was previously the case.
The establishment Of diplomatic
connection with all treaty states.
Eligibility to office of all class
es.
Restrictions upon public expen-
ditures.
Reduction of the number Of ma
ii onal employees.
Absolute freedom Of religi on.
Abolition OF slavery.
Prohibition of cruel or excessive
punishment.
Abrogation Of the law permit
ing the punishment of the entire
family of a criminal.
Authorization of a widow to re.
marry, and all persons to marry
according to their own choice.

the fires in forests adjoining hav-
ing started a fresh. The rain Mon

ones. A party of campers eight
miles of west of here were driven
out of the woods by flames last
night. They drove horses through

had a arrow escape. One hour
longer at the camp would have
been disastrous. The damage

JOLIET, H., Sept. 6.-One Of the
most remarkable safe opening feats

eral safes of other towns have been
brought to the penitentiary to open,
and in every case he has succeeded.
Yesterday Secretary James O'Con-
nor, of the National Loan and
Homestead association, called on
Warden Allen and said the combi-
nation Of his safe failed to work
and he could not get into it. Allen
sent Douglass with a deputy to
O'Connor's Office, and he worked
for three hours but failed to get
the safe open. Douglas was great
ly disappointed. He wanted to try
it again and after two hours work
the doors were opened and Doug
lass went back to prison, a happy
man. He said that he never failed
to open safes, Notwithstanding this
was a double combination safe
lock, he would not give it up. 1t is
