KoREA's ULTIMATE OWNERSHIP
Very Interesting Views on Eastern
Questions.

DR.. Nicholas Sem, who in conjunc-
ton with party of physicians most
of whom, like himself are from Chica-
go was a passenger on the America
Maru, completing a round the world
trip.
Dr. Sem has interesting and practical
views on the present situation Of affairs
in China, Japan, Korea and Manchuria.
The disposition of Korea, he thinks, will
be the next Eastern question Japanese
and Russians are to the fore among the
nations in filling up that country ana
the Koreans fear the time when this i'm
migration must end in the tTansference
of authority Koreans with whom the
doctor talked seemed TO wish for a
United States prOtectorate and said
that Korea would willingly grant eX-
tensiye franchises to Americans.
China, from DR.. Senn's standpoint,
needs a strong leader with attractive
personality, an oriental George Wash
ngton with the interests of his people
at heart, not his own pocket book, like
Ii Hung Chang. He hopes however
that the Japanese will take up the
building up of China.
DR.. Sem speaks most highly of the
japanese and their modern improve
ments, particularly euogising the Jap
anese Red Cross Society,
Manchuria is now thoroughly Rus
sianised. The only Chinese left in the
valley of the Amur are those employed
as laborers by the Russians. DR.. Sem
speaks in glowing terms of the Siberian
country crossed by the great railroad
which is being rapidly rebuilt with
heavier rails and iron bridges, From
Moscow to Vladivostock there Is
a great future in wheat and cattle rails
ing.

MRS. N'KINLEY IS WEAKER
DOCTORS MUCH CONCERNED.
Mrs. Mckinley suffers From Same
Complaint as When i'm Frisco
President Remains by Her Bed

Washington, June Mrs. Mckinley
continues weak, but each day that
elapses without a gain in strength les
sens her powers of recuperation. The
complaint which came near ending her
life in San Francisco is still present.
1t is a slightly less aggravated form,
but gives the physicians and the presi-
dent mucn concern. Mrs. Mckinley
has shown remarkable vitality, but her
illness has so reduced her strength as
to leave her very feeble indeed. The
news given out by the physicians in at
tendance today was not reassuring,
though hope of better things still con-
tinues. After a consultation between
the doctors, the following bulletin was
issued:
Mrs. Mckinley passed a comfortable
night, but her condition has not ma
terially changed since the report of
yesterday"
There were no further consultations
of the physicians during the day, but
Dr. Rixey called during the evening
and spent some time with the patient
!
time the statement was made that there
had been no change. President Nc
Kinley spent most of the day at the
bedside of his wife, though late in the
afternoon he went out for an hour:
drive He departed alone, but met
Judge Watson of Ohio, an old friend
on the way and the latter accompanied
him to the White House.
Dctors Rixey and Sternberg botf
were in attendance at the White House
during the evening, although the latte
did not remain very long. DR.. Rixe!
was at the mansion for over two hours
and when he left for the night, shortl.
before II o'clock, he announced that a
that time Mrs. Mckinley was resting
comfortably, as she had done all tn
afternoon.
Senator Elkins called on the pres
: dent during the evening and was wit
him for about Is minutes.

MILLIONS OF RAILROAD TIES.

How to VI AXE Them Last Longer Prob
lem Railroad Men Can't Solve.
1t is impossible to estimate, except
vaguely, the number of railroad ties in
use In the United States, but single
road, the New York Central. replaced
100000 old ties with new ones last
year. the Erie 100000 in New York
State and 100000 on its whole line, the
Delaware-Lackawan 100000, and
other New York roads in like proper
ton.
On all the roads of the country fully
rs, 100000 new ties are required for re-
newals extensions and additions each
year and this entails a vast use Of rail
road materials, is a steady drain upon
the available lumber supplies and costs
moreover a large sum for the labor and
hauling. Much ingenuity has been ex-
pended on projects for retaining wood
en- ties longer In use than is possible at
present.
: The standard American railroad tie
is 8 feet long by s inches deep and 8
! inches wide, and fairly hard wood is
required to prevent the rails from sink
ing and from becoming displaced. Oak,
chestnut locust and cedar are the usu-
al cross-ties.
Many attempts have been made to
treat the ties so as to prevent decay of
the wood. Some years ago the cross
ties used on the Reading railroad were
notched where the rails crossed them
and their ends dipped in coal tar. II
was supposed that the tar would pre-
serve the ends from decay. Since then
another process by which the ties were
saturated with a solution of zinc has
been tried. but it was found too costly
A railroad tie costs about 80 cents
and it is customary to add % cents
for the labor of putting ties in position
or 70 cents for each new tie. Any plar
whereby the durability Of ties may b,
increased without undue expense will
be welcomed by railroad men, but 81
far the problem remains an unsolveC
one.-New York Sun.

A VETERAN
Tells Of a Thrilling Experience
in the Civil War and How
a Newspaper Article
Saved His Life.
From the Beacon. Leonardstopn, Md.

Many veterans of the rebellion can
recall incidents as thrilling as the cav
airy charge in which the narrator of
the following experience nearly lost
his life, and, unfortunately, many OF
the old soldiers have disabilities that
are unpleasant reminders of their days
in the army. To all such this story
will have peculiar interest and may
show the way to restore health,
strength and energy. Mr.. William II.
Whiting, of Mt. Holly, Va, says;
"When the Civil war began l was
living in Buffalo and there | joined
Co. F, of the Tenth New York Caval-
ry. In 1868, while serving with my
company, | received sabre cut that
caused paralysis. For eight months
was obliged to lie in the hospital at
Washington, d. c. l afterwards
tried many doctors, but the paralysis
remained as bad as ever. suffered
from chills and my general health
was not good.
"This continued until about eight
years ago when l read in a newspaper
of the cures effected by DR.. Williams
Pink Pills for Pale People. / began
taking the pills and soon found they
were doing me good. In six months
time l was completely cured. The
paralysis has not returned and | never
have the chills now. My general
health is also better than when l be-
gan taking Pink Pills for Pale People.
] Away keep them with me and, in
the eight years that have passed since
l first took them, l have never had
occasion to call on a doctor.
