KOREAN IMPERIAL FAMILY.
Legend Ascribes a Supernatural Or
igin to Its Founder-A Curious
Story Told in the East.


The origin of the Korean imperial
family, which is just at present expert
encing the pressing attention OF both
the devil and the deep blue sea, is suffi-
ciently picturesque-that is, If 1t is pos
bible to believe the legend which relates
1t, says the Manchester Guardian. Ii
seems that the favorite wife Of the king
of a certain province in north China
was walking along the banks OF a river
when she noticed something approach
ing with the current. The something
proved to be large egg, from which.
when It was broken, emerged boy child
of great beauty. She carried the infant
to the king, who seems, however, to have
been of a skeptical turn of mind, for he
ordered the child to be at once thrown
into the royal sites, which housed pc
culiarly savage breed of pig. Far from
killing the child, however they lavished'
porcine attentions upon him, which, b.
ing related to the king, caused him tore
pent to have the child brought back to
the palace. and to name ii Light of the
Orient" The boy grew up TO so many
virtues and other excellencies that the
king again grew jealous. and sought his
death. The young man heard of 1t and
fled. Closely pursued, he arrived at the
Yalu river. He fired an arrow into the
water, and at once a great shoal Of fish
appeared. and formed themselves into
living bridge, over which he crossed the
river in safety. On the other side he
found an amiable nation, who elected
him their king. and from him the pres
ent dynasty is descended, or purports
TO be, which is much thes same

MAY ASPIRE TO THE POSITION.

Dispatches from Atlanta on Sunday
gave out the following political infor-
nation.
cit is the general belief that Chair
mani. Pope Brown of the Railroad
Commission will not be in the govern~
orship race. Should Commissioner
of Agriculture o. B. Stevens be
appointed railroad commissioner,
it seems to be the general
belief that Mr.. Brown will try to
become commissioner of agriculture,
an office which, it is said, he would
almost as soon have as that of Gov
ernor. Of course, Mr.. Brown cannot
and does not expect reappointment as
railroad commissioner. He was one
of the faithful allies of Col. j. H Estill
in the last race for Governor, and car
ried his county for the South Georgia
candidate"
The Times Recorder does not speak
by the card but if Hon, Pope Brown
wishes to be commissioner of agrlcul-
ture the people of Georgia will see
that he gets it.
He is eminently qualified for the po-
sition and would administer the duties
of the office without fear or favor, re-
fecting credit upon himself and honor
upon the State.
The T1mes-Recorder is for Pope
Brown for Commissioner of Agricul-
ture should Hon. O. +. Stevens be
elevated to the railroad comm: ssion,

SEVEN CENTS IS THE PRICE.


The continued slump in cotton val
ues yesterday, following the horizontal
decline of Saturday and the few days
previous, has brought the price of the
South's great product down to seven
cents. lower than it has been in seve-
raj years This condition, coming In
the midst of the season when farmers
yet heId-many of them-their entire
crop is bound to bring great loss to
the South. Farmers right here, men
whom we know, have lost considerably
by having held their cotton, and this
condition obtains very generally.
Fortunately the South is in snch con-
dition, financially, that period OF de-
preston IN cotton does not infilct any
thing like the amount of damage that
it once did. Several years of high
priced cotton, diversified farming and
the opening up of many new money
making industries all through the cot
ton belt have put the country in a
splendid condition financially, and en-
abled the farmer in most instances to
get along comfortably in spite of all
that the market manipulators are able
to do. IF the current prices do not
suit the cotton farmer-and we may
add that they do not-he is, in great
many instances able to hold his crop
until they reach the altitude at which
he is willing TO sell. 1t is safe to pre-
dict that many farmers will do SO now,
Americus times-recorder. [volume] (Americus, Ga.) 1891-current, 1904-12-06

1t is unfortunate that the cotton
planters of the South should be at the
mercy of q lot of price Spectators in
new York and London. The intrinsic
value of cotton cuts no figure with
the spectators. 1t is purely q matter
OF gambling with them.

The report of the secretary of agri-
culture shows that the hay crop is
the third in value IN this country, be-
ing exceeded only by the corn and cot
ton crops. Yet the average southern
farmer scarcely ever thinks of hay as
a money crop.

HEAVY FIRING HEARD.
1t is Believed that Long Expected
Sea Fight is On.
(Bv the Associated Press. !

Chefoo, April Wednesday, a. m.
The correspondent of the Associated
Press at Teng Chow. forty miles north
west Of here, telegraphs as follows:
Sounds of very heavy firing were heard
at half past six o'clock this "wednesday
morning The firing evidently was be-
tween here and Port Arthur. 1t is be-
lieved at Teng Chow that the long ex-
pected sea fight among the Miaotao
Islands has taken place.
THE Japanese battleship Asahi, flying
an admirafs flag, was seen off Chefoo yes
terday going to the west, and there is no
doubt that the remainder of the Japanese
neet was in the vicinity of Port Arthur.
The Russian fleet also was seen outside
Port Arthur yesterday"

The captain of steamer Lockshan, which
arrived today from New Chwang, reports
that he heard heavy firing between five
ard seven o'clock this "wednesday morn
ing, in the direction of Port Arthur. The
firing was continuous, but no ships were
visible. From the direction of the sound
he judged that there was fighting at the
entrance to Port Arthur. The lockshan
was the last foreign vessel to leave New
Chwang sailing at the same time as the
British gunboat Espiegle, at one o'clock
yesterday afternoon.

A GREAT LEGAL BATTLE.
United States Springs Surprise in
Northern Securities Case.
fRv the Associated Press

st. Paul, Mimi, April IA great legal
battle between corporation lawyers, whose
names are familiar from one side of the
United States to the other, and who rep
resent two of the wealthiest corporations
in the United States, is being waged IN
the United States District Court here be-
fore Judges Sanborn, Van DeVanter, HOOK
and Thayer. This action Is based on Il
motion presented to the court by E. H.
Hartman ct al, for leave to file an IN
tervening petition for the purpose OF
showing why the Northern Securities Com
pany's officials should not carry out 4
plan of distribution of the assets of the
Northern Securities company IN manner
alleged to be inimical to the interests OF
Hartman and Pierce.
The United States government is rep
resented by District Attorney G. G. Houpt,
who today presented an objection to the
intervention under the direction of United
States Attorney General Knox.
This Intervention was something of a
surprise to the petitioners who were not
aware of it until after Mr.. Evarts had
opened the case for the plaintiffs. and
Judge Sanborn asked him if he was aware
that the United States government OBJ
jected to the intervening petition. The
court then directed Mr.. Houpt to read the
objection of Mr.. Knox, which says:
"The United States neither admits nor
denies the allegations of the petition, but
objects to the proposed intervention.
''This case was heard by this court on
bill, answer and testimony. and a final
decree was entered, enjoining the defend
ants as therein recited.
Upon appeal by the defendants to the
Supreme Court of the United States, the
decree of this court was affirmed in every
particular, the effect of which was to end
and close the case.
'The United States stands on the de-
cree affirmed and submits that the court
is only concerned to see that it is faithfully
observed by the defendants"
