JUDGE GOFF
IN HOSPITAL
ConditionSis Not at IAN Serious and
Rest is Doing Him Much
Physical Good.

Judge Nathan Con Is in priyat..
hospital in Philadelphia for rest and
treatment. He has been in that city
the last seven or eight weeks under
the care Of physicians and will likely
he there several weeks get.
( Judge Con Is not in his usual ro-
bust health, but there is nothing SER
ious about his condition. During
his long service on the federal bench.
he has devoted himself closely to the
duties of the position, which are
quite extensive and has had but few
vacations, In fact. none for more
than day or so. These duties. to-
gether with his large business inter-
ests. have been somewhat trying OH
him physically and in early summer
his health became impaired.
After number OF weeks spent at
home he concluded TO place himself
under the care Of specialists and to
get away from the cares and duties
of his official position a few weeks
until fully restored to health.
The rest has been quite beneficial
to him and his health is gradually
returning. Word from him is tina,
he will soon enjoy his usual health
and will return home in a few week,
at most.

he glvcs gloomy picture of condi-
tons In Korea since 1t came under tho
protectorate of Japan. or course, we
had no means of knowing whether or

made we have seen tho Rev. j. Robert
Moore, Of the NJ. L. Church., South,
who spent seven years in Korea in
missionary work for that church. and
who loft the peninsula in June, 1906.
Mr.. Moore says that Editor Hubert
is thoroughly reliable, and that his
statements are worthy Of credit Moro
over, his own experience puts him in
position to say that tho situation Is
even blacker than Mr.. Hubert has
painted It, Ho declares that japan
has treated Korea with brutal tyranny.
and subjected the Koreans to all man

one occasion, when Il, railroad was be-
Ing built, no saw Japanese soldiers
go into Korean settlement and with
drawn sword make an Imperative de-
inand for so many men to work on
the road. The order had to be obcycd,
no matter ut what sacrifice to the
Koreans, and tho pay for the work was
SO small that it was hardly sufficient
to pay for the rice which the mon
ate.
What is to be the outcome OF 1t
all?" he was asked.
