City in Whieh No Man but tho King
May Enter.
Perhaps the Queerest city In the
world is that of Nang Harm. the home
of the royal family of Siam. This
city's peculiarlty lies in the fact that
It is composed of women and children
alone. It is in the center of Bangkok,
has high walls around it. and in its
population of 5000 there is not a sin
gle man. though the king occasionally
pays visit The name Nang Harm
means "veiled women" There are

Korea: The Progress Of Two Decades.

Luke l. fO-ty.
Korea has two claims to the atten-
tion of all Western people. She was
practically the last country on the
Asiatic seaboard to open her doors
to foreigners. and she was one of the
chief centers of interest In the recent
struggle between Russia and Japan.
To Christians Korea is of yet great
er interest as one of the Youngest and
yet most promising of all the worlds
mission fields.
A medical missionary's skill In
treating royal patient opened
Korea to the gospel. In view Of this
beginning medical missions have
naturally been made prominent, and
their work is it's own highest praise.
DR., John +. Goucher proposed the
beginning of Methodist mission work
In the Hermit Kingdom" twenty
years ago. More than that he sup
ported his proposal by the gift of two
thousand dollars, to form part of the
fund which the planting of the work
would require. The first missionar-
les w. b. Scranton, NJ. D., and Rev.
III. G.. ApDenzeller went out in 1885,
and began what has proved to be a
most fruitful and prosperous mission
Korea has much or little religion,
as one may choose to look at it,
Confucius is the great teacher. but
Buddhism has its place, and an even
larger one is occupied by a degraded
Spiritism. in which sorcery and
witchcraft are important elements.
The best Korean religion is present
day. worldly-wise system of conduct,
with small thought of the great real
tiles. Its fruits are selfishness.
jealousy. and the degradation of wo-
man. The worst Of Korean religion
is an indescrbable mixture of super
stitition, licentiousness, and misery
Small wonder that the present king,
IN his memorable interview with the
late Bishop Nilde, said. "Send more
teachers" The attitude of the king
is also shown in the fact that he gave
the name to our school in Seoul by
which it has always been known
Pal Chai Hakdang, 'Hall for Rearing
Useful Men"
One of the noteworthy features of
Korean missions is the beautiful fell
lowship OF the various denomination
al groups. The Presbyterians and
Southern Methodists have been es-
pecially helpful to our own mission,
and have co-operated with it in many
ways.
Seventeen years after the baptism
of the first convert these are the
facts that can be shown by figures
presiding elders districts, 1876
members and probationers, II local
preachers, Ill churches and chapels.
Korean ministers contributed last
year 81 ,5O4 for self-support. A pub
fishing house is In prosperous opera
tion. The Hall Memorial Hospital, a
monument to "the saintiiest man that
ever crossed the shores of Korea
has 5000 patients in year.

Rev. Theodore l.. Cuyler, speaking
of Christ as an anchor to the soul, says
significantly: You are certain to be
assailed with troubles. No hurricane
can strike full rugged ship more sud
denly than Orms of adversely may
burst upon you. But if Jesus Christ
is in your soul you cannot suffer
wreck. The anchor sure and steady
will hold you. People do not see what
holds vessel when the gale is sending
the pillows over her bow. The anchor
is invisible, as it lies full many a.
fathom deep on the solid ground be-
meath the waves. SO, when we see q
good man beaten upon with heavy adj
versitieS and yet preserving a cheerful
spirit, we do not discover the secret of
his serenity. But the eye of God sees
that there is an interior life hid with
Christ in that soul which no storm can
touch There is many a bereavement,
many trouble that may strip man
of canvas or cordage. but never touch
the solid strength of his godly charac-

around Hudson Bay. The Creek and
Nascoppie Indians are among these
tribes who have a peculiar custom in
regard to their dead. AS soon as one
Of their number is dead. the surviving
relatives place the dead one in box
which they beg from the Hudson Bay
company. In this box are placed, with
loaded gun, a powder horn. a tobacco
pouch. a flint stone for striking fire,
the snowshoes for travel and an ak.
This box is then carried 10 the top
of the nearest hill and set there with
stones upon the top Of 1t. For ten
days 1t is left undisturbed, and then
the relatives remove the gun and other
paluables. believing that by that time
the dead one has reached the happy
hunting grounds and has no further
use for them.

BAPTISM.

The Meaning of the Ordinance of

Rom. 6: III; Gal. 3 27.
The duty of baptism rests on
Christ's example and Christ's COM
mand; either of them is enough.
Baptism leads the devout soul into
the inner experience of Christ's death
and life. Is not that worth every
thing?
Baptism is a token-the commonly
accepted token-of Christian disciple

1t is the token Christ chose to pre-
scribe, and He alone had the right to
prescribe it.

The WORLDS MARKETS
Chicago Daily Market Letter.


FURNISHED by the A. NJ. McDearmott
Commission Co., Room 10, Alex
ander BuildingJ
Wheat-Cables this morning show.
ed an advance of Is, but were with
out any influence on this side. Good
rains are still being reported from
Kansas and Nebraska, and il is rain
ing in central Illinois today. This
breaks the drouth very thoroughly
throughout the winter wheat belt. .
The market opened rather quiet aud
held within a narrow range of prices
nearly all day. On every little break
there was good buying, which caused
the market to rebound very quickly.
1t is generally believed that the shorts
in the May option are fairly well
covered. Local professionals who
have been bears have switched around
to the other side and now announce
openly that they are very bullish.
1t is very probable that the next bull
market will stalt on news from the
northwest The Minneapolis market
was strong again today with Watson
and Washburn-Crosby people the best
buyers of the July option The Mod
'en Miller stated that further deter
ioration had been reported in the
winter wheat belt, due to the dry
weather, the lowering of the condi-
'tions being the most marked in the
states east of the Mississippi river.
Other sections are being benefited
by good rains. We believe we are
going to continue to see bull markets
and advise purchases on every break.
Receipts were very light, there being
eight ears in Chicago, thirty-two in
Kansas City and 254 ears in the
northwest, against 229 last year.
Corn showed Is advance but the
heavy receipts and large estimate
of nearly 900 cars here for tomorrow
was too much for the market and
the price declined about "a of
cent. The Argentine shipments were
reported heavy and the export de-
mand was poor. There seems to be a
great deal of difference in opinion as
ito the prospect for the oats crop. |
The market held fairly steady until
the last half hour of the session and |
prices sold off some in sympathy with
corn.
Provisions-Receipts of hogs were
1000 and the market opened 4 to
10 cents higher The offerings of
pork and lard were very light and
the provision market opened from 5
to ID cents higher. 1t begins to look
now as if we would see. the ten cents
predicted some tune ago for ribs
and lard in the near future. Pork
will also advance with the rest of the
list.
This June corn certainly looks at
tractive for long pull for good pro-
fits on the long side of the market.
Would buy wheat on any further
decline from tonight S close
Would buy July and sell September
pork for a spread.
