JAPAN WILL GUIDE AFFAIRS
New Ruler OF Korea to Be Simply a
Figurehead.

Toxic, July 19.-As a result of
urgent representations by the minis
ters it is very probable that the en-
peror Of Korea will abdicate in favor
of the crown prince as the first step
toward reform in Korea. This will
most likely be followed by the calling
OF a new convention, which, while
keeping Korea's national existence in
tact, will limit the sovereign power in
some foim whereby the ruler can eX-
ercise his powers only with the con-
sent and approval of the japanese
resident general. The present min
listers in Seoul are actuated by true
patriotism and are determined to
place the Korean government upon a
firm basis and free from court in
trigues and selfish plots.
Seoul, Korea, July 19.-Placards
were posted during the day in one OF
the thoroughfares calling for the
death OF all japanese officials In Seoul.
The ministers are strongly guarded
and every precaution has been taken
to prevent riots and attacks upon Off
cials. The emperor Is reported to be
too worried to take food or sleep, but
this report is considered to be one of
his usual maneuvers to enlist the
sympathy Of his people.

An Estate Obtained Through a Pun.

Land transfer has lost a great deal
Of the simplicity which characterized
the operation in the olden time. The
pleasant land of Bosnian, in Sussex,
once belonged to the archbishop Of
Canterbury, but was much coveted
by Earl Goodwin, supporter Of the last
of the Saxon kings, whose treasury
was unfortunately too empty to pur-
chase 1t. He obtained the place by a
novel system Of land transfer. His
lordship attended great ceremony in
the archbishops cathedral, followed by
his retainers, and, according to time
honored custom, said to his grace, "Da
mihi basium," meaning, "Giye me the
kiss of peace" only instead Of saying
3asium" he ingeniously substituted
the provincial pronunciation of Bo-
sham. The archbishop gracefully re-
piled, do tibi basium," which, being
interpreted, js, "E give thee the kiss"
which he did. Bat Goodwin cried, "Thou
hast given me Bosnian" to which all
his retainers cried, why, cert'nlyW
And the whole crew at once rode off
to take possession of the pleasant Sus-
sex territory. The archbishop could
not help himself and allowed the trans
fer to go. The law has greatly COM
plicated EaRkters since then

After them the articles of agreement
of marriage, called tabuloe matrimo-
males, which are mentioned by Angus
tine, were signed by both persons. Aft
err this the man delivered to the wom-
an the ring and other gifts, an action
which was termed subarrhation. In
the latter ages the espousals have al
ways been performed at the same time
as the office Of matrimony in all the
churches abroad, and 1t has long been
customary for the ring to be delivered
to the woman after the contract has
been made, which has always been in
the actual Office Of matrimony.
The ring is a special token of spous-

the use of foreign cathedrals before
the minister proceeds to the marriage

dowry-vlz, the tokens of spousage-
and by these tokens of spousage are
to be understood rings or money or

woman by the man. which giving Is
called wedding or covenanting, espe-
