TIME IN KOREA.

The calculation of the Korean year
is said TO begin at the latter end of
January, about a month later than our
own The moons of the calendar are
made alternately long months of thir-
ty days and short ones of twenty-nine.
The first is a long month, called a
great moon: the second a short
moon, the third great moon" again,
and so on.
The moons are divided into three
parts Of ten days each, instead of in
to four weeks, as with us. The day is
divided into twelve hours each of
which is twice as long as one of our
own. The Korean day begins at mid
night.
In calculating age Koreans take
small account of any fraction of a
year. The moment a Korean baby is
born he is said to be one year DID,
and one year old he remains until the
coming of the next New Years day,
when he is suddenly advanced to be
two years old, just as all his COM
patriots are pronounced a year older,
no matter how near the close of the
expiring year they may have been
born.
AS may be believed, time is not of
much value in a community which
reckons on such q. system. The means
of calculating age of individuals saw
ors of ''Alice in Wonderland
American travellers conclude it is
safe to deduct year and six
months from the given age of a Ko-
rean to find out how cid he really is.

NOW SAY THAT HE WILL
NOT ATTACK JAPANESE

ST. Petersburg, June 24-To-day's
news from the theater of war indt-
Gates that Gen. KuroDatkin will not
give battle to the combined armies of
Gems. Oku and Kuroki near Kai-
Chou. Doubt is now cast upon the
impression prevailing for several days
that the bulk of the Lao Yang army
had been advanced southward. though
it may be that Gen. Kuropatkin is
concentrating his forces in the neigh
borhood of Hal Cheng. The only thing
that can be stated with certainty is
that the information received by the
war office shows that Gen. Kuropatkin
has no intention of seriously contesting
the Japanese advance on Kai-Chou,
which would seem to- carry with Il the
decision to practically abandon the en-
tire peninsula to the enemy. and as a
necessary consequence the with
drawal of the Russian troops from
New Chwang.
Military critics approve of Gen.
Kuropatkin's decision not to fight at
Kai-Chou, which, they point out, is
a particularly unfavorable position,
exposed to a flank attack from s<uroki
on one side and to a possible landing
at New Chwang on the other.
The Japanese forces engaged in
this movement are estimated at $780,
900 men, and an enormous number of
guns,

Plans for Its Formation Are AfOOt
in New York.
New York, June PA plan for the
formation of holding company for
the Seaboard Air Line is under consid-
Grafton by the banking interests in con-
troll of the property. Conferences to
that end have been held in this city re-
Gently, but the details have not yet
been worked out.
1t is known, however, that the pro-
posed plan includes the organization of
a holding company which will provide
a large amount of capital for the Sea-
board system. A bond issue of at least
$10,OO0,000 is contemplated.
John Shelton Williams, chairman of
the board of the Seaboard Air Line,
said to-day:
'The Seaboard Air Line system now
is absolutely in need of no further
financiering, unless it should be de-
cided to undertake work of new con-
struction, improvement and betterment,
as to the wisdom or necessity for which
there are differences of opinion"

BALFoUR MAKES ANSWER.
Not Now Ready to submit His Policy
to the Country.

to the Country.
London, June 24.-Pfemier Balfour
has issued a significant paper to the
members of the government in the
form of a reply to a question asked in
the House of Commons. The question
and the reply are published this morn
ing, and they excite much comment in
all the papers. Sir John Leng asked
the Premier whether in view of the
discomfort regarding the budget and
the evident dissatisfaction of the con-
stituencies, the Premier would not
withdraw the contentious measure and
wind up the business of the session in
order to submit the policy of the gov
eminent to the country.
Premier Balfour, in reply, says that
he does not propose to take the course
suggested unless the government in
ours such a defeat as to show that it
has lost the confidence of the House
of Commons or unless it shall fail to
receive from day to day the support
which is necessary to carry on the busi-
ness of Parliament. In either of these
events the government will ask to be
relieved from it's responsibilities.
1t is the latter part of the reply
which excites comment, as, in view OF
the recent small majorities in favor of
the government, it is taken to mean
that Mr.. Balfour will go to the country
should the government be defeated, as
the result of the Indifference of its
supporters during minor debates.

HOUSE OF HOO HOO
BURNS AT WORLDS FAIR.
other Buildings Were Threatened
by the Flames.

st. Louis, June 24.-Fire, which
threatened for a time to destroy many
buildings at the Worlds Fair, to-day
consumed the house of Hoo Hoo, rem
dering the building and contents to-
tai loss.
So quickly did the flames spread that
the five occupants of the building, all
on the second floor. had difficulty in
escaping with their lives, being COM
PEELED to climb down a tree.
The loss of the building and con-
tents is estimated at 100000. The fire
is supposed TO have started from an
electric light wire.
The alarm was answered by the en-
tire Worlds Fair fire department and
by eight engine companies of the city
department. All efforts were directed
toward saving the Texas, German.
Oregon, and Mines and Metalurgy
buildings, all of which were threaten
ed with destruction on account of fly
ing sparks. All were saved without
loss or damage.
At liuuSe vi I1OO HOO was one OF
the first buildings finished for the ex-
position. 1t was erected by the lum-
bermen of the United States, but un-
der the control of the local board of
the order of Hoo Hoo. 1t was divided
into many rooms, constructed of differ
ent kinds of fine and expensive lum-
ber Aside from this there were spec
linens of rare woods which were val
ued highly. 1t has not been decided
yet whether to rebuild.
There were thirty black cats in the
building at the time of the fire and
these are believed to have perished.
Fearing the Texas building would be
destroyed, women of that state work
ed heroically to save precious relics of
early history. Sheets were torn from
the beds in the building and used to
carry the relics to places of greater
safety. One point of the star shaped
building of Texas is within seventy
five feet of the house of Hoo Hoo,
and in the large first floor room of
this point the relics have been on ex-
hibit. They include pictures, books,
papers and various articles identified
with the early history of the state
and are priceless. Nothing but the fact
that the wind was not blowing to-
ward the Texas building saved Il.
