body, while the memorable power of death overcoming all opposition, holds it's way. During this commotion the priest on each eEI of the platform hololng the bier urged the bearers with a long pole, the end of which was painted red. In accordance with ancient custom, the pole was dipped in q pot of red paint, and those bearers who. neglected their work received a dab of red on their white garments, and at the end of lne day those bearing the marks were punished.
 Funeral in Corea are always sup posed to take place at night, and to keep up this supposition men carrying long gauge lanters on small poles run by the side of the coffin and line the route at the start. Curious and wonder ful are the ancient costumes which make their appearance on such occasions. Their beauty is not shown to advantage by their wearers, as they are the poorest of horsemen. Even holding on to the saddle with both hands is not a sufficient guar antee of safety, but they must have two gooms to walk by the head of their tiny mounts to prevent accidents.
 In the processons, which takes the whole day to pass, are chairs containing figures of devils.

CRAZE FOR CONDENSATION "Quick Lunch" Literature Provided for
 the Busy Man.

From the Reader Magazine.
 The constant cry of the average Amer ican is that he has no time to read. He gulps his newspaper like a literary ana conda, and leaves the books to his wife and children Once in a while he nibbles at a novel but he seldom finishes it. The newspaper style has spoiled him for any thing the length of the novel,
 And so accustomed to brevity and con densed ideas do some men become that they do not even read their papers, but content themselves with the headlines. Readers addicted to this lightning pro- cess will be interested in movement which began a dozen years ago to con- dense the English classics. As the re- suit of the labors of q group of up-and- coming editors, it is now possible to have "Clarissa Harlowe," .rom Jones' and Boswelrs Life of Johnson" each in one volume. Busy men may also read "ren Thousand a Year condensed as to matter and title as "Tittlebat Titmouse." They can have "Pilgrm's Progress" and "Robinson Crusoe' neatly chopped down by an accomplished butcher, so that each may be read in the compass of three or four hundred pages. The Bible expur- gated and compressed, may now be pur- chased, and even two hundred years ago Shakespeare's 'beautiess were extracted from the valuoless context by Mir. Dodd. Mr. s. R. Crockett. finding children who would not read Scott, has rewritten the work of the "Wizard of the North" into his own language and successfully squeezed all the charm and romance out of the tales.
 We have 1t on good authority that huge cider presses and cotton gins are being installed in certain large publishing houses into which will be cast the old dramatic novels of Dickens and Thack- cray of George Eliot of Meredith and Hardy, of Howells and James. of Wash ington Irving and Cooper. and out oi which the masterpieces will come neatly compressed into thin duodecimos, "auici lunch editions which may be read bs

ALL ALABAMA DISCUSSES
 ACTION OF SYLACAUGA
BY JOHN T. EVANS.

O YLACAUGA has been discussed more during the past week than any place in Alabama with inc probable exception Of Birmingham Everv- body is talking about Birmingham
 The action of the Commercial club of sylcauga last Monday morning in re- calling the invitation to the Alabama Press association to hold it's annual meet ing there has brought forth the talk. This action has been on the lips of per maps every newspaper man in Alabama, as well as every politician. There is no dlscounting the fact that politics was the direct cause of the recall of the invita- uon. Some of the criticisms have been severe on the organization at Sylacauga, while others think the action taken was proper and the only thing that could be done In the premises. Newspapers in the state, too, will perhaps continue to dis euss the .'Sylacauga incident for weeks yet to come. In the meantime the bus mess men down in that little town are saying nothing.
 The Alabama Press association at it's annual meeting held last year in Besse- mer decided to accept the ivitaton issued by the Commercial club of Sylacauga to hold the next annual meeting in that town For six months or more com mfttees from the club have been busily engaged in arranging for the meeting.
 All was going we'll until apout ten days or two weeks ago when hurried call was sent out over the wires by the secretary of the Press association to the members of the executive committee to convene in Birmingham to discuss mat ters of vital importance to the associa- tion.' Similar notices were sent to the Commercial club of Sylaeauga
 Sylacauga business men did not know what was up. A delegation of represen- tative business men were hurried to Br- mingham. They met with the executive committee here and told the newspaper men that Sylacauga wanted to entertain them and had raised sufficient funds for their entertainment. This committee told the executive committee, in response to a query, that MT. Conner had been in vited to make an address before the as- sociation. MT. Conner is a large property owner in Sylcauga and he was selected to speak before the association "as repre- sentative citizen,'' nothing more and noth- ing else.
 The gentlemen from Sylacauga were in- formed, it is said that the association could not allow political address to made before the association meeting. MT. Conner might speak on education but not on railroad rates.
 The committe returned to Sylacauga and informed the Commercial club of the

Tn 1860 the south believed she had a right to secede. In a speech against the bill admitting Louisiana as a state of the Union, Josiah Quincy of Massachusetts in the American Congress, January 4, lSll, said "I am compelled to declare it as my deliberate opinion that If this bill passes the bonds of the Union are virtu- ally dissolved; that the states which com pose it are free from their moral obliga- tions, and that, as 1t will be the right of all, so it will be the duty of some, to prepare definitely for separation-ami- cably, if they can, violently if they must" The south in 1860 only did what she believed she had a right to do She seized forts and arsenals and arms within her borders because she had been taxed to buy them, and she believed she had the right of morals and the right of law, as well as the right of might, to do so. She might have been wrong she was not criminal.
 Some two centuries earlier there was civil war in Germany. It was about re- ligion. The empire was dissolved. and cruel war lasting thirty years followed The Protestant states took the estates and the revenues of the church wher- ever they could lay hands on them. They said that they and their fathers had paid the tithes that had made the bishoprics

A PRlNcEss' FUNERAL.
Road Made for the Procession and a
 Temple Built.

From the London Graphic.
 The crown princess of Corea had been dead a month before her funeral took place. During the interval, road was made seven miles out of the city, and a temple was built to hold the body. As the procession left the palace gates some of the mourners, according to ancient custom, tried to stop the coffin by push ing back the bearers,< who in their turn steadily drove forward. The idea of this is to show regret at the passing of the

opulent, and that, now the empire was dissolved, they would take their own, and they did The loyal states, such as Bavaria raised a cry of treason and theft, just like this cry MT. Rogers is raising.
 The south did exactly what the Pro- testant states of Germany did in 16lS, believe it was. They took what they thought was theirs. Taxes paid by them had helped to pay for the 100000 muskets left in arsenals at the north. They there fore seized the 115,000 muskets at the south. I know that this is treason able way to look upon it, but it is the rational way.

restrictions made as to MT. Corners ad- dress. This was not rellshed there.
 The committee had more to tell They | had been informed in Birmingham that l the suggestion had been made that o9la- eauga was too far out of the way Tor many of the editors to gather for short convention.
 The Commercial club was quick to act.
 
 i Last Saturday afternon and last Sun day morning it was freely suggested I around the postoffice and other places 1 of gathering in Sylacauga that the com mercial club would reseind the invita- l lion. The outsider heard rumors Of I all kinds, but none could be substantiated. l At 9 o'clock Monday morning it was announced officially that the Commercial club of Sylacauga was in session. The meeting was an open one. There may have been some opposition to recalling the invitation to the press association, before the meeting. but it evidently died out when President E. J. Smith called the meeting to order. All were as a unit.
 The invitation was recalled.
 Sylacauga is one of the best little towns IF South Alabama
 An editor of an Alaoama daily in com menting on the press association matter illt JULIET QdSt says
 We suggest that the editors go to Syla- cauga just the same; pay their way at the hotels, hire a hall to meet in, and take a good look at the place, Then let them tell their readers just what sort of place it is.''
 Of course this editor has never visited Syacauga. If he ever pays the town visit, he will always have pleasant recol- lections of his sojourn there The people there are hospitable, just as all other Alabamians are.
 There are things of interest to see In and near Sylaeauga In marble properties ii is the richest section of Alabama and one of the richest in the entire south. The people of Syacauga had planned to carry the editors to the big marble quar- r.es nearby. They intended to show the newspaper men the exact spot where the gigantic piece of marble that represents Alabama in the Washington monument was quarried. The interesting story of how the Alabama marble was about to be rejected when 1t reached Washington. because 1t was believed up there that 1t was from Italy was to be related.
 There are many other sights around s,ylacauga of equal interest Perhaps the editors will see these some day but not this year anyway.
 Sylacauga has one newspaper It Is the Sy1acauga Progress The paper is one Of the best weeklies in Alabama. and 1t has the interest of the town as well as that section of Talladega county, always at heart
 It is a progressive paper.
