The photograph represented a palm
grove, a lake and a caravan of laden
camels and white-robed Arabs moving
in stately. wise across the pale desert.
THAT is a picture Of a mirage. or fata
morEana," said the traveller. Il took 1t
in the Sahara, not far from Timbuctoo.
There was really nothing there but sand
wastes on wastes Of sand: but my daz-
Fled eyes saw that mirage, and my
camera saw II, too.
This is the only mirage picture have
ever got. I have tried In Ceylon. In
Egypt and in Morocco to photograph
various rnirages. but always in vain.
There are scarcely six mirage photos in

probable that young man
who until two years ago was an Amer
lean college student will be crowned
emperor of the ancient Land of the
Morning Calm.
This interesting parsonage, well

Eui Wha. He is the son of the En-
peror VI Hung, who has just abdicat-
ed, and Lady ON, the old emperor's
chief concubine. The son of vi Hung
and the murdered Empress Min, who
as crown prince has assembled the
throne from which his, father stepped
down, is said to be a weakling, inca
pable of ruling intelligently. On the
other hand, young Eui Wha, despite
certain escapades while in the United
States, has shown that he possesses
mind capable of looking at matters
almost from the western viewpoint
Conditions in Korea are so chaotic
that one has no warrant for predict

youth Of seventeen. He was under
the wing of a missionary. He is sup
posed to have gone to Japan for few
years after that studying in the
schools Of that country. Then about
six years ago he returned, again in
missionary tow, to acquire an Ameri-
can education. First he became a stu

Prophetic Utterance.


About that t:me-it was in the spring
of 19O4-he gave out an interview in
which he uttered these prophetic
words. proving that wisdom may dwell
even in the mind Of a youth who has
done Coney Island and been done:
''Of Korea I can only say that this
war between Japan and Russia prob
ably will change her whole future his
tory 1 do not even know that she will
be an empire hereafter. Personally
side with Japan in the conflict. l
think most Of the Koreans are de
cidedly sympathetic in that direction.
Thus, Of course, we hope for Japa-
nese victory. In that event perhaps
Korea will be allowed to remain an
empire as BEFORE"
Perhaps-even yet
Perhaps this young man, if elevated
to the throne, may maintain Korea as
an empire for in that same interview
he uttered these worthy sentiments:
IF by any possibility I should ever
ascend the throne I should start a
thoroughly new regime. There would
be more western civilization intro
forms in every department Of the gov
eminent The spread of education
would be the great principle upon
which the government would concen-
trate it's energies. Korea needs an in
tellectual awakening"
And bot IN or1yio,1, ,-34l,
these remarks, which Japan surely
should not forget:
II admire very much the Japanese
form of government. 1 believe it is
the system which would work with
success in Korea. The more I study
the more there is to learn, I find ant
perhaps some day 1 shall make it my
mission to go back to Korea as the
missionary Of education, if not to be
the ruler of the palace at Seoul
From all this we must conclude thai
Prince Eui Wha of Korea learned
much in America. His reputed love
affairs and the Coney Island episode
were merely incidental. It was only
natural for him to fall in love with oul
American girls. Most of US do it once
or oftener during life. This oriental
list showed excellent taste. 1t is ever
to be regretted that he could not take
with him to share his reign-in the
event of his elevation-an American
empress who could teach Korean won
en- and Korean men many things
calculated to advance the ancient ma
ton and could help to hold down thu
tottering throne and steady it.
