The establishment Of the embassy
was, indeed, due to Mr.. Aliens influ-
ence with the king. & The United States
brought a claim against China for the
destruction by Koreans Of an Ameri-
can ship; the Chinese government an
swered that it had no authority over
Korea, that Korea was an independ-
ent power, and American should de-
mand indemnity of Korea.
The United States did SO, and when
the note reached the king he straight
way sent for DR.. Allen and asked him
what it all meant. The American at
once saw that here was a splendid
chance for Korea to show her indie
pendence of China, since China her
self acknowledged it in her reply. He
urged the king to show that his coun-
try was really independent by send
ing representatives to the powers and
the point so earnestly that at last the
king consented, and then strafghtway
selected his Yankee adviser to estab-
lish the embassy in America.
After the Korean embassy was es-
tablished-the doctors appointment
expiring thereby-Dr. and Mrs. Allen
returned to Chemulpho under an ap-
pointment from the Presbyterian
board of missions. In the same fall
he was offered and accepted the secre-
taryship of the American legation. In
1893 DR.. Allen represented Korea al
the Columbian exposition; in that
year also he was requested by Presi-
dent Cleveland to return to Seoul as
charge d'affaires. In 1897 he was
made resident minister and consul
general by President Mckinley, an6
in 1901 was appointed envoy extraor.

American capital will find plenty Of OPP
portunities for good investment on the
isthmus Of Panama. While the natural
resources of the territory on the two sides
Of the canal are not as rich as at Mic
aragua, yet they hold out attractive pos
sibilities to the speculator and investor.
ST know Of a large tract of land con-
tanning coal of a high quality said a
Colon business man, who is now in this
city, mot more than twenty miles from
the line Of the canal. With their present
crude facilities for taking it out and get
ting it down to the railroad, they claim
that they can deliver 1t on the cars at
$3.50 ton. Nine steamship lines touch
at Colon and four at Panama at present.
When you think Of the traffic that will
ultimately pass thru the canal and realize
that coal carried to Colon in GOLFERS now
costs $12 and S14 ton, you will agree
with me that a dollar or two Is to be made
by developing this mine have in mind.
This isthmus is 1000 miles away from any
point in Europe and 5000 or 1000 miles
from any point in ASIA Consequently the
item Of coal will be Of some importance
to steamers going thru the canal. Before
leaving the isthmus I made some in
quiries regarding these coal deposits, and
learned that three mines have already
been worked to some extent. The fue
is Of excellent quality, being especially
adapted for steaming purposes. The title
to the property is clear, and, as it is To-
Gated on a river, the problem Of transpor-
tation will be readily solved. think that
I shall negotiate with a coal expert tc
visit the place and make an official report
on the prospects Of the mine.
There are other fields which offer good
returns for investments in other direc-
tions. Rubber trees and cocoanut trees
abound on the isthmus, and with little
cultivation would yield valuable crops
Some few deposits of gold have beer
found there, but they have received little
or no attention"

old as some Of the Korean remedies
were, they seemed to leave something
to be desired. The knife and needle
were better than hot wax; quinine was
better for fever than the hanging Of
rags on the trees outside the invalid's
house; pepsin was better for indiges-
ton than burning a prayer that had
been written on paper; the Korean
doctor who had a stone which, placed
upon a patients body, enabled it's
owner to see into the body and locate
the disease, often made sad mistakes.

expense. In it's place, at the kings
order, an American hospital was
erected, called Hay Min So-the
'House of Civilized Virtue''-and DR..
Allen was put in charge. Within a
year half a dozen operations were
performed in the House Of Civilized
Virtue every morning, and nearly a
hundred dispensary patients came for
treatment every afternoon. This was

rex In 1882 Korea made her first treaty

singularly enough, was with the
United States. The missionary society

was eager to enter the hermit nation,

murdered; another Korean, Prince Min
Yong Tx, a near relative Of the king,
was mangled. The gray, old city Of
Seoul was filled with terror as the in
furiated mobs ranged the streets.
The emeute began as an anti-Chinese
uprising, but turned into an anti-Jap-

tionalities, fled hastily down the zig
gag pathway, twenty-seven miles long,
to Chemulpho, the seaport Of the in
land capital. ,
