WHERE MEN CAN'T
GO OUT AT NIGHT
But the Ladies of Korea Have That
Privilege.
Society Is Gossiping Over n Peculiar
Custom of Mrs. PAX Yes Coun-
try-Iturbide Again.

= Mrs. PAX Ye, the Korean minister's wie'
while chatting recently with several Iriehus
related Il curious custom i'll Korea Hhicb
permits women to go out at uight, but does
not grant the same privileges TO men.
Thus 1t is claimed that latchkeys are at q
discount III that country. The nouon at the
back Of this is very ancient. Man belongs,
they say, to the masculine principle OF the
universe, which is the sun. therefore, ne heeds
the sunlight. Woman is OF the feminine
principle represented by the neon, and
therefore are the moonbeams good for her.
There are a good many girls here who
would like TO persuade their mothers OF this
fact on summer evenings. Mrs. Ye said this
old idea is not lived up to by ladies OF rank.
however, and a midnight promenade by "A
Korean lady would be regarded as even
mole eccentric conduct than III This ountTy-
Mrs. Ye on being asked if She found any
great difference here from her life at home,
said very little. The greatest difference
was that AT home ladies' never go out eN-
cept in closed chairs, and here she drives
out with her husba nd, Minister Ye Pun
Chin, in an open carriage This she finds
great fun. Then she was asked II she had
heard that the last Korean lady here had
dreadful times at her receptions because
everybody would attend; that women on
their way home from market would employ
-culored boys to hold their heavy baskets
outside while they attended the receptions
= on one occasion lady OF the smart set
met her cook and waitress at one of the
Afternoon teas. The description seemed to
amuse Mrs. Ye very much, and she laughed
heartily, but said She should have to find
some way to select her visitors.
When asked what she thought of women
bicyclists, how the first one impressed her,
she said she thought IL looked very good
fine fun" But Would she learn to ride
herself? oh, no! she would never dare,
she would be afraid OF getting hurt. Then
she pointed to Master He We Chin and said
he would learn, and little mother and little
Son smiled into one another's eyes.
According to n Philadelphia paper, Prince
1turbide has again offended Washington
society with his unconventional ways. 1t
happened on election night, and the way of
il was this: His great figure, clad in bi-
cycle costume, appeared in the midst Of a
roomful of people, smart and otherwise, at
a well-known uptown cafe. In he came,
with hat on. He had carried his wheel up
the steps, and after pushing it calmly
through the room and placing il against
the wall, retraced his steps the entire length
of the room without even lifting the head
gear.

NEW YORK, Dec. 1.-THE stock market
has rarely been as fiat and uninteresting
for full business session as it was today.
The stock indicator was motionless for
many minutes at time and the meagre

fluctuations as a rule trivial. The specula-
tion displayed a degree of lassitude that
precluded any favorable influence on prices
from the increased government cotton crop
estimate and the favorable report regard

At the recent convention of the National
Hardware association there was a good
deal of discussion regarding the nail trust
which is alleged to have increased three
fold the price of wire nails, and it was de-
cidad to authorize the executive committee
TO take any steps it may deem best TO CIR
cumvent the action of the combination.
The line of policy which found most favor
with the members of the organization is
the encouragement of the nail mills that
are pledged to remain Independent of the
trust.
Since August the enormous amount OF

having been done. there is not a great like
lihood that the transportation of the metal
will be resumed for some time to come. The

1t has shown them that the ebb and flow
of the currents of gold are quite as amen

the withdrawal of our gold may be. and
probably will be, counteracted by natural
conditions whenever it approaches serious
dimensions. Faint hearts scarcely realize
that it is not six months since they almost
suspended palpitation for fear that our
good old ship was on her beam ends, never
