FINISH OF KOREA.
Hermit Kingdom May Disappear
from Family of Nations.


After having been more or less bullied
for centuries by the neighbors, Korea
seems about to disappear from the fam
lily of nations. The process already has
begun and the next few years may sec
one of the oldest of the ancient civiliza-
tons wiped off the map.
The steps leading up to this unique re-
suit follow logically upon Japan's effort
to make the country cOlonlzing ground
for its own surplus population. The
Korean emperor and his foreign minister,
Pakchisun, have resisted japanese meth
DDS of government and publicly denounc-
ed them as outraging all the spirits of
their noble ancestors, but without avail
Last week japanese guards surrounded
the emperor's palace, made him prisoner
and compelled him to sign an agree
ment, Japan having previously Modified
most of his advisers with substantial
sums of money. The agreement provides
that a japanese administrator shall gov
ern Korea under the emperor" and
that all Korean treaty ports and diplo-
matte affairs shall be henceforth in Jap
anese hands.
This is evidently the beginning of the
end for Korea, says the Chicago News.
japanese armies have Overrun it in past
ages. For centuries it bowed in meek
submission to China and regularly sent
its ENJOYS on pilgrimages to inquire ten
derby after the we'll being of Chinas
rulers, contemporaneous and ancestral.
History records occasions when it had to
60 into public mourning for it's failure
to show proper respect to its suzerain.
When, as a result of the war between
Japan and China, it gained a measure
of independence from this vassalage it
found itself on the point of being alb
sorbed by Russia. Now it meets mani
fest destiny in the form of japanese am
bition, for how the japanese admins
traitor who is to govern under the en-
peror" will run things is reasonably
clear. 1t is true that this is all at vari-
ance with the japanese treaty stipula-
ton, guaranteeing the integrity and au-
tonomy of Korea. But, as every one
knows. treaty agreements are binding
only when there are ships and guns to
back them up.

BURGLAR KILLS A GIRL.
Miss Maud Reese of Chicago Finds
Thief in yIcr Flat and Is Shot.


Miss Mard Reese. while trying to cap
ture a burglar, was murdered by him in
her home in Chicago Tuesday night. She
fell on the floor within Il few feet of
her companion. Il woman almost blind.
Miss Reese. who was % years old and
employed as Z stenographer IN the legal
department Of the Union Traction Com
pany, accompanied by Mrs. NJ. NJ.
Baumgartner, had been in the fiat less
than a minute when the murderer fired
the fatal shot i'll the dark.
Miss Reese lived in the fat with her
sister, Anna, a nurse. Earlier in the
day the sisters had received telegram
from their brother-in-law at Green River,
ILL.,, saying their sister, his wife. was ill.
Anna Reese decided to 60 Miss Maud
Reese. who never had been alone in the
fiat at night, telcphoned to Mrs. Baum
gartner, who consented to meet Miss
Reese at the Union Traction Company's
office Mrs. Baumgartner is under treat
ment for her eyes and her sight is inn
paired. The women rea ched the fiat af-
ter dark, having left the office at about
p. m.
Miss Reese unlocked the door and
both stepped in. In a moment Miss
Reese whispered to her companion, Il
believe there is some one in the house.
Can't you hear some one moving?"
Noise of feet could be plainly heard in
the kitchen in the rear Of the Hat.
BE quiet. You stay here while l go
to see What it is" whispered Miss Reese.
Mrs. Baumgartner heard her friends
firm steps on the bare oak floor of the
hallway leading to the kitchen. A mo-
ment later there was & scream, followed
by mans threatening voice.
Help! Help~ came from the kitch-
en-. Then there were an overturning of
chairs and crashing of dishes. Almost
at the same time man came running
toward the front door, talking in a low,
gruff voice and evidently struggling to
get away. Miss Reese was either hold
ing on to him or was being dragged by
him. Above the noise the mans voice
sounded finally:
"Let go of me or I'll shoot"
Mrs. Baumgartner said she saw the
dim outlines of the burglars back and
his hand reaching for a pocket. A shot
rang through the fiat. Miss Reese fell
to the floor with a gasp. Turning an
grily and cursing, the man ran toward
the kitchen. The sound of crashing
glass indicated his escape out of win
dow. People from other flats in the
building soon ran to the scene. After
the gas was lighted Miss Reese's body
was found lying on the floor near the
entrance so that the door could not be
l tnIpnHnnp
call was sent to the Sheffield avenue
station and fifteen minutes later the po'
lice began to arrive.

OVERRUN WITH THIEVES,
Battle Royal Between Pickpockets
and Police in New York.

Battle Royal Between PickpOckets
and Police in New York.
New York City is overrun with pick
pockets. According to Captain McCau-
ley, of the detective bureau, from fifteen
to twenty suspects are arrested daily
and a battle royal is going on between
the police and the light-fngered gentry
Night and day every part of the city is
covered with Commissioner McAdoo's
men, and it is an exceptionally alert pick
pocket who does not walk into the net.
Every car line in the city has it's detect
ives. They work in pairs covering their
section, which varies according to the
district
The preferred field of activity of pro.
fessional pickpockets is the crowded
street cars. Most often the woman with
children is the victim of their operations,
The pickpocket, who is oftentimes a
woman, will play with the children or
engage them in conversation, to distract
the mothers attention. When she does
this successfully her confederates seize
the opportunity to ''sneak" her pocket
book and make off.
Most of the professional pickpockets
it's speciality. For instance, pickpock-
ct who would 'sneak" pocketbook
would seldom attempt to purloin a watch
or a diamond scarfpin. Some thieves
have mania for diamond scarfpins and
would never think of touching anything
else. Most thieves prefer the pocket
book, as there is less danger of their
theft becoming known. One pickpocket
at headquarters explained that he would
never run the risk Of lifting watch,
because, he said, people make good
deal more fuss about losing their watch
than they would a pocketbook or any
thing else.
Nearly 5000 photographs in the
rogues' gallery at the detective head
quarters. of men and women who ply
the profession of dipping" as they
themselves term it, testify to the in
creasing number of members of the
light-fngered gentry.

on the first floor of the Field residence.
He was attending to his duties. Mr..
Field was alone in his bedchamber. Mrs
Field was calling upon friends. Mr..
Field had gone to his room about )
o'clock. The butler heard him as he
walked about the room fo1 half an hour.
Then came silence. Suddenly there came
the sound of a shot. The butler was
silent for a moment. Then cries for
help came from Mr.. Fields room. A
second and the butler was up the steps.
AS he entered the bedchamber he saw
the body of the young millionaire lying
upon the floor.
What has happened?" gasped the
butler, as Mr.. Field groaned in the eff

ly and with difficulty. Il shot myself
with that revolver-accidentally
