say, this all important parsonage Is So
cially an outcast. The CoreanS hold
woman in lower esteem than any other
civilized people, and the "Mutang" is
relesated to the lowest place of all, al
though she is the mediator between
natural and supernatural agents.
Children are sold to devils by very
many families. To sell child Is reck-
oned by Corean father to be the sur
est method of assuring It's prosperity.
The children thus consecrated still live
with their parents, but they are consld-
cred to belong to the "Mutang." 1t is
extraordinary that system so unut-
terably ludicrous should prevail over an
intelligent and keen Witted people. All
classes are bewitched by 1t. The late
queen, q beautiful and talented woman,
was profound believer in Shamanism,
and resorted continually to the demon
oracles. But they could not save her
from her cruel fate She was foully
murdered by Japanese assassins. For
that crime the japanese will be bitterly
hated by Corea for many generation
The place where her remains were Gre
mated has become one Of the most ven
Grated of spirit shrinea. Most of the
spirit shrines in Corea are grotesque
places adorned with gaudy paintings
of gigantic Chinese generals. The in
scription usually u.s. Il, the spirit, dwell
in this place. The Coreans on COM
ing to a shrine act as do the Russians
when they catch sight Of a holy icon,
but they have a habit. in addition, of
expectorating before passing on. To
sick people are often given fragments
of feast offered at a shrine, with the
confident hope that cure will thus be
effected. The effect is often fatal For
instance, many a typhoid patient is
thus stuffed with pork! Yet the sad re-
suit seems to bring no revulsion of opin-
ion. For in Corea the dark reign of su-
perstition has eclipsed all the light of
common sense.-London Morning Her

a coon EYIMSLE.

1t is cheering to know that if man
pays for fame in a book he is entitled to
what he pays for. The Supreme court
of Maine says so. In the case before
the court the defendant was sued for
the subscription price, which he had re-
fused to pay for the following reasons:
He admitted signing a contract to pay
$35 for a copy Of the book, but asserted
that he was induced to subscribe be-
cause of a representation that only
three hundred Representative men" of
the State of Maine were to be made
famous along with himself. 1t appear
ed. though, that six hundred repre-
sentative men" in Maine were found
willing and worthy-for the subscrip-
ton price--to be mentioned. and so the
the defendant thought it was to be,
with the result that the defendants
proportionate or per capita share of
fame was reduced from one three-hun-
dredth to one six-hundredth. This he
claimed was material misrepresenta-
ton which released him from his liabil-
ity to pay for the book. The Supreme
court sustained his contention, and de-
cided that the trial judge should so have
instructed the jury.
OF course, being set down and pictur-
ed as one of six hundred representative
men is not as helpful as being set down
and pictured as one of three hundred,
in court. He did well to kick, and his
example is q good one.

Perhaps the boom that has begun in
Siberia will soon be much like the early
boom in the western part Of this coun-
try p. Boutofsky, the Russian Vice
Minister of Justice, who is now in Cali
fornia, has been telling something about
the walSingup in Siberia, where he has
just made an official tour. He found
the business development of the rail-
road, in spite of contrary reports, re-
markabe. On the West Siberian sec
ton the number of passengers carried
increased from 10000 in 1896 to $50, 900
in 1898, and the freight shipments from
III ,O00 to 492, 900 tons. On the Central
Siberian section a yet greater proper
tomato increase was recorded for the
same period In 1896 the number of
passengers was only fifteen thousand
but in 1898 it had risen to 100000, while
the freight business had grown from
sixteen thousand to 10000 tons Stories
have heretofore been told of the over
burdened road. which could not handle.

PORTABLE SCHOOLS.

The portable schoolhouse idea is find
ing favor in other places than st. Louis,
where it first became conspicuous
Boston has adopted it, and Brooklyn
probably will adopt 1t. In Brooklyn
there are about $4,000 children who
must be put off with part-time instruc-
,tion each day-half In q morning SEES
sion and half in an afternoon session.
In some of the schools this condition
probably cannot be relieved except by
the erection of a new building upon the
ground, which must be acquired and
cleared. But there are many school
buildings which have vacant land adj
joining, on which the portable build
ings may be set up. Every one of these
portable buildings placed at school
where the halliday or part-time classes
exist means that two of these classes
can be placed on full time. President
Robertson of the Brooklyn school board
has brought the idea before the build
ing department of the board, and Su-
perintendent Snyder has already pre-
pared preliminary plans for construc-
ton. Figures have been obtained from
builders which indicate that a building
of about 25x3o feet, ample in area to ac-
commodate a full class Of children, can
be erected of fireproof materials for
probably less than $1,000. When it is
considered that the average cost per
class room in the new buildings under
construction Is over $1,000, 1t does not
seem extravagant to pay $1,000 for a
portable classroom
If st. Louis, Boston and Brooklyn
can advantageously use portable school
buildings perhaps New Haven can af-
ford to try an experiment with them.

came to 1t for transportation. NJ. Bou-
tofsky says that the export Of Chinese
tea by way of Siberia is on the increase
not only to Europe, but also TO Ameri-
ca. In the Altai district, along the
road, only five per cent, of the land has
yet been cultivated, and yet last year
it produced 100000 tons of grain. Only
five years ago the steppes region was
forced to import ninety thousand tons
Of grain, but last year it sent eighty
two thousand tons to the outside
world.
The Siberian railroad may not do as
much for Russia in military way as
it is expected to, but 1t will be immense
ly useful to her in a peaceful way.

BIG BILLS FOR THE WHITE MIN.

BIG BILLS FOR THE WHITE MAJ
1t costs money to make war far from
home, and the British taxpayer is just
now painfully aware of that solemn
fact. A large part of the expense of
such war is the cost of transportation.
Between July /, 1899, and March 81,
1900, 1926 steamers of 1 ,73S, 1888 gross tons
We're chartered for voyage of from
5000 to 1000 miles by the British gov
eminent. The meaning of these fig
| ures may be grasped by comparison.
This tonnage was 65 per cent. more
than the entire steam tonnage of France
and but 421, ISL tons less than that of
Germany. To the end of March 3O,1OO
horses were sent from England and 49,
S96 from Australia and Argentina, be-
sides 1874 horses and mules sent from
India and 31,5O3 mules shipped from
various ports. About 100000 men were
sent to South Africa from England,
Canada, Australia, Malta and India. 1t
speaks well for the efficiency of modern
steamships that not one life has so far
been lost at sea by reason of storms,
shipwreck or like accidents. OF horses
from to 5 per cent. were lost in tram
sit and of mules from 1 to % per cent.
The United States is also paying big
bills for foreign military operations, but
we are not yet as burdened in that way
as England is.

The meteorological service of Japan
Is well organized and is under the d.
rection of Professor K, Nakanura, a
graduate of the University of Toxic.
1t includes eighty stations of the first
and second orders, and about nine hun
bred stations where rainfall or temper
allure is recorded. At these stations
electrical, earthquake and other phe-
nomena are observed, as well as the
usual meteorological conditions, and all
vessels belonging either to the imperial
or merchant service are compelled to
make observations at regular intervals
six times daily, and forward the records
to the central observatory. There is
also a regular service of weather teleg-
raphy and storm warnings, and the OBJ
servatlons ana forecasts are published
daily. The success of the forecasts is
stated at 80 per cent, and of the storm
warnings at 70 per cent. Monthly and
yearly bulletins are also published, and
an English translation of the titles and
important phrases is added. The staff
and attendants at the central observa-
tory amount to fifty-three in number.
