OF the Corean people. Coreans have

soil, until now there are many Corean
villagers living happily under the do

were exchanged by putting the Corean
capital, Seoul, in touch with Europe by
means OF the Russian imperial tele-

For long period Russia has been
endeavoring to have her officials al

usually granted to foreigners. Until
recently her efforts in this direction
have been futile. Now, however the
Japanese officers have been relieved

BEHIND A SKiTTISH ZULU.
Poultney Bigelow Describes a Ride in Il

Jinrikishn in Natal.
From the Youths Companion.
A jinrikisha ride in Japan or India af-
fcrds to the traveller an interesting
mode OF progress; but iinriksha ride
in Natal apparently offers exhilaratng
possibilities to itself Poultney Bigelow
gives, in a recent article, an account
Of his experience behind a lively Zulu
mansfield, whom he selected, from
among a crowd of applicants. on ac-
count of the yards of fuzzy ball trim
ming, such as is used in upholstery,
which he wound into his wool and be-
cause OF his peculiarly winning grin.
The start he says, was made un-
der circumstances calculated to tiatter
the personal vanity of a field marshal.
There was chorus of sympathetic CUR
giles and clicks from the jinrikisha coll

Worsted name and paved the earth with
that proud and indeeisiye ostentation
characteristic of the warlike charger.
1T would not do to move forward like
common workaday vehicle, so my
Zulu tnkled his little bell. sprang skit-
tishly up and down, tossed his name,
ard made a few feints as If to ram his
surrounding colleagues, who made re-
spectful way for him, and evidently
recognized in his childlike gambols a
certain professional masterliness that
went directly TO the African neafI.
We Were at length on the way, my
Zulu giving every now and then huge
bounds into the air in order to see how
near he could come to throwing me

Basutoland, so that on this occasion he
was disappointed.
Whenever he saw man or woman
of his own color. however far ahead or
remote from his line of country, he
made a nice calculation as to his
chances of running over these subjects
of Queen Victoria. There was no malice
in my Zulu's nature. When he was so
fortunate as to Craze his target, he
laughed and gurgled and kicked his
heels in the air. Had he struck the
bulls eye, his joy would have been too
great for utterance.
Mr.. Bigelow found his ride SO enjoy
able that it did not occur to him to be
yexed with his ingenious steed, when.
at the summit of hill crowned with
villas outside of the city he learned that
he had been borne two or three miles in
the wrong direction.
The Zulu did not mind either: he
started gayly off the other way and
kept going until they arrived at a beach.

So soon the vows of friendship made.
The summer swallows plume their wings
And soon will take their southward

The world a darker shadow filings

But in my heart a sadder chill
Than winters touch of frost can bring.
A restless grief beyond my will,
To find my love so frail thing.
It's life was but the summers leaf.
Its lengfh--the shortest winters day,
A bud in summers rosebud wreath.
And then it faded quite away.
