A Brooklyn Joker,

Albert Knole, being without any
thing particular to attend to one morn
ing, concluded to have some fun with
his wife. He told her he had taken
some Paris green and would soon be
dead. Before he had chance to ex-
PLAIN the good feature of the joke the
wife rushed out and informed a police
man. The latter hastily summoned
an ambulance, and Surgeon Guilfoyle,
OF st. Catharines Hospital responded.
hnole attempted to explain the joke.
But the good doctor, with the assistance
OF the policeman, threw him to the
moor and pumped him out right clean.
hnole made no more attempts to ex-
plain where the joke came in. He
was too weak and weary.

A captaincy on the police force in
New York city must be worth some
thing if Captain Creedon tells the
truth in admitting that his appoint,
ment cost him $4,000. The testi,
mony reveals that after the money
was put where the commissioners
could reach it the civil service form
was no bother whatever. The case
IN point illustrates the beautiful work,
lngs of the civil service reform in
national and municipal affairs. If
nothing else were disclosed by the
Lexow inquiry it has beautifully re-
vesled the corruption of the civil SER
vice as applied to New York, and it
serves as a criterion as regards fed
eral appointments also, besides reit.
Grating the established fact that where
the appointive power is centralized
IN civil service commission, in New
York or elsewhere, the longest poll
Is very apt to knock the persimmons.
we rather guess the fathers knew
what they were about when they left
the civil-service notion out in the
make up of rotative government,
That's the way it looks to us.

Weather prophecy, like the prac-
tice of medicine, is not yet an exact
science. 1t is charged against Vennor's
prediction that he was entirely mis-.
taken about the earthquakes and the
coolest kind of cold weather that was
to befall us during the first ten days
of December. And his admonition to
boatmen to keep near shore, because
of dire results anticipated on the
ocean, accorded with Rev. Hicks
representations also, and yet they
were both mistaken; as we had
neither the cold weather, earthquakes
or ocean storms. If at first they don't
succeed they try, try again.

The King of Corea is now forty two
years old, and he is in good physical
condition. He is one Of the ablest
rulers Corea has ever had, and there
is no harder worked monarch on the
face of the globe.
His troubles to-day come from his
officials. He had been SO bound
round by them that he did not know
the condition of his people, and he
has been hedged in as was the Mikado
of Japan generation ago. You can
not imagine the pomp Of this King
No one can 60 in front Of him He
never moves about the palaces with
out there are eunuchs at his side to hold
up his arms, and the officials must
get down on all fours and bump their
heads on the floor whenever he comes
into their presence. He spends his
nights in working, and he sleeps in
the daytime. He goes to bed at s
o'clock every morning, and no one
dare awake him. About his rooms
guards are stationed, and all the con-
versation that is carried on near him
must be in a whisper. He usually re.
mains in bed until half past s In the
afternoon, and in quiet times he
begins his work in the palace when
the watch fires are lighted on the
mountains above Seoul. These notify
him that allis well throughout the
country, or the reverse. These signal
fires will describe in another letter.
They take the place of the telegraph,
and from hill to hill all over the king
dom the character of the fire flashes
dispatches describing the condition of
the people. 1t is the telegraph sys.
TEN of the middle ages, and has been
in daily use in Corea till the Japanese
took possession of the land few
months ago.

do not think that the Crown Prince is
as able man as his father. Still, my

seemed to be coached all the time by
the giant eunuchs who stood beside
him and held up his arms. My inter-
prefer had to double himself between
us while we talked, and there was
quite as much pomp in the present
presentation. During the audience
l heard low laugh, which seemed to
come from behind a screen at one
side of the room. l imagine this
was uttered by the Queen or one of
her maids OF honor. She often views,
| am told, such matters through a
peephole, and, though it would be
entirely contrary to official etiquette
for her to be seen by a man other
than the King, 1t is said that she
knows all that is going on in the
palace, and that there is no promin-
ent audience given which she does
not thus inspect. She is said to be
most able woman. Her family is
the strongest in Corea, and her in.
fuence in all governmental matters
has been very great.
