The committee on credentials reported
no contests. 1t is probable that the real
work of the convention will be most
manifest in thorough revision of the

an insurance feature, but whether in

those VINO become members is not vet
decided, and will probably evoke con
siderable debate.

WASHINGTON. Oct. f5.-There is still
no official confirmation here of the re-
ported assassination of the Queen of
Corea. and, although there may be pol
itic motives for q concealment, for a
time. OF such tragedy, officials here
think it possible the queen may be alive,
as the dispatches are somewhat doubtful
on this point. it is recalled that SINH
lar state of affairs existed in Corea in
1882 and that then the report was circu-
lated that she was dead. At that time,
this same Tai Won Kun, the father of
the king. who is said TO have led the
last attempt upon the queens life, at
tackled the palace with a large band of
adherents and captured the persons Of
the king and queen. The queen was con-
demned to be poisoned, but by the SUI
bLime devotion of one of her handmade
ems she escaped. The maid took the
poison and the queen was secretly car
ried off by her friends. and hidden in
the mountains. while the report was
sent out that she had been killed. The
Chinese government, which maintained
its Suzerainty over Corea almost en-
tirely through the active support and
sympathy of the queen, took active
steps to redress her wrongs, and send
ing a large force of troops to Corea, re
instated her and her husband on the
throne and carried old Tai Won Kun off
in exile TO China, from whence he was
subsequently released.

ALLISON'S CHANCES.
Republican State Committee Are In
II Bad state.

CHICAGO, Oct. 15.-A special dis
patch to a morning paper from Des
Moines, Iowa, says that it is stated
on good Republican authority that
the state central committee has just
completed a poll Of the preferences Of
the Republican candidates for the leg
islature in the matter of the resub-
mission of the prohibition amend
ment, and had found that a majority
of them favor resubmission. This sit
uation has alarmed the Republican
managers, both within and without the
central committee, who are anXiously
working to further the interests Of
Senator Allison as a presidential can
didate. They are afraid that if the
legislature which reflects Allison to
the Senate should go on record as ia
voring prohibition, 1t would prejudice
Allison as a candidate for President
in the eyes of Republicans of other
states. Under these circumstances.

to us in the mystery and darkness that
overshadows the history of 80 much of
human life.
Any object which presents at =

the butterfly for the Soul, the scythe

and Chinese writing is SO to this day.
So were the Egyptian hieroglyphics
and the same can be said OF our own
Indian picture writing.
All coinage, from the first Hebrew
shekel To the last American dollar; all
the flags of all nations: all state or ma

thing. The cross, the crown, the scep-

all are emblems.
Every letter in every language. every
figure, the sign of every trade and pro-

Scotlands thistle, are all emblems.
And yet, strangely enough, it is only
by persistent search that one can find
out even the least about the origin of
this class of art, the meaning of its
varied forms, the hidden sense being
often lost utterly while only the form
remains
