Think HiohIy of Korean Chief.

VI Kang Nyan, the accredited chief
If the insurgents, is the same man
who was the head of the volunteers in
the year of VI Mi, when the empress
was murdered, and who, after quie ting
down, came to the front again at the
conclusion of the last Japan-K orea
agreement and urged his countryn men
10 rise and defend their country.
He has since met the Japanese in
many engagements, and in one of Them
was severely wounded. Owing to his
remarkable daring and courage re-
cruits are fiocking to his side in large
number. 1t is said that he is a -igid
1iscipllnarian and that only a short
time ago he had his son-in-law Shot for
4 breach of discipline.
All villages and towns are quite safe
as far as his own particular force Is
concerned, while even the Japanese
speak highly Of him for his courage,
honesty and humanity.-Korea laiIy

Wonderland of the Sixteenth Century
by forty Lilliputians was presented at
East Turner hall Thursday night under
the auspices of the Self Improvement
Social club. The event was something
highly enjoyed goes without saying. The
little folks performed in manner that
left no room for criticism. The public
will have to conceed that the committee
in charge has no superiors as pro-
moters and originators OF ideal enter
tainments.

MARKED EPOCH FOR THE FARM.
Marsh Harvester Was the First Time
Saver In Agriculture.

Fifty years ago two young farmers
named Marsh were cutting grain near
DeKalb, III. They were too intelligent
too American-to be fond of work
for works sake. And of all their
drudgery. the everlasting stopping
over bundles to bind them into
sheaves CALLED them most Such back
breaking toll, they thought, might be
well enough for kangaroos, but it GER
tainly was not suitable for an erec:
biped, like man, says Herbert M. Cas-
son, in Everybody's.
IF l didn't have to walk from
bundle to bundle, and hump myself
like a horseshoe, could do twice as
much work." said one of the brothers.
We'll" said the other, why cant
we fix platform on the reaper, and
have the grain carried up to us?"
1t was brilliant idea and a new
one. Neither Of the young fellows had
ever seen reaper factory; but they
were handy and self-reliant BY the
next autumn they were in the field
with their new machine, and as they
had expected, they bound the grain
twice as quickly az they had the year
before.
So was born the famous Marsh har-
vester, which proved to be the half
way mark in the evolution of the grain
reaping machine. 1t was the child Of
the reaper and the parent of the self
binder. 1t cut in two the cost of bind
Ing grain. But 1t did more than this
it gave the farmer his first chance
to stand erect, and forced him to be
quick, for the two men who stood on
the harvester were compelled to bind
the grain as fast as 1t was cut. Thus
1t introduced the factory system, one
might say, into the harvest field. For
the first time the Big Marsh made its
appearance on the farm.

A Rash Order.

Senator Curtis of Kansas-"The In
1ian," as he is called-has won a well
deserved reputation as an after-dinnpr
wit of late. despite his dignity on ordl-
nary occasions. Indeed, it is this Gig
lity which makes his humor so deli
cious, for he scarcely ever raises his
voice above his usual grave, conversa-
donal tone. At a recent dinner he
;onvulsed his hearers by telling them
If a breakfast experience at hash
house In a small Indiana town. When
he waiter brought the ham and eggs
Mr.. Curtis mildly suggested that the
eggs be taken back to the kitchen and
,urned over-that is. fried on both
sides. But in moment he wished he
hadn't, for the waiter, fixing him with
L Bowery eye, CALCULATED: Turned

The Old Dogma and the New.

The Yale graduate whose diploma
dates back to the early '70s has seen
since then changes in the religious
life, functions and spirit of the uni
versity that would have amazed col
legs ancestors of the Puritan creed
He has seen the clerical unity of the
corporation give place to a non-cler-
lcal majority; university president
not a clergyman break the clerical
succession of well nigh 200 years; the
old Congregational divinity school,
with such a roster as Taylor, Bacon
and Dwight, proclaim non-sectarian-
ism; the college graduating each year
more Episcopalians than Congrega-,
uonalists; Sunday services shifted to
Woolsey hall with sermons by preach
ers Of diverse creeds; and such minor
loosing of the stern old regimen of
orthodoxy as the extinction of Sunday
chapel and of the afternoon Sunday
service. Another advance step in ra-
tional liberality is now made with the
Sunday opening of the art school col
lections and of Peabody museum to
the public. To the young of the pres
ent New England generation the in
cident may seem trivial. 1t in fact,
while small In itself, is another sign
of that transition from old dogma to
the new humanity.-Yale Alumni

Cone from us, yes gone forever,
Back to earth to return? No never.
He has crossed over the divide so fair
Where there is no parting, death, or
care.
Through Deaths valley we all must
pass,
In advancement to higher class.
Lord keep us turned unto that light,
So angels may know we are in sight.
Oh Heavenly Father how can we live?
"Show pity Lord, Oh Lord forgive.
Into thy care, thou took him to keep,
For we know thou dids't DER sin
ners weep.
Oh brother, though we miss you here,
For to our hearts you even so dear.
We would not have you back again
In this world of wickedness and pain.
God, our father, knoweth best,
And though it is an awful test.
If we keep our incense burning rare
His glory we'll see sometime, some
where.
