SHOT BY KOREANS.
AMERICAN ADVISOR TO EMPEROR
OF KOREA ASSAULTED AT
SAN FRANCISCO.
ONE OF The ASSA|LANTS ALSO WOUNDED
D. w. Stevens Was on His Way to
Washington From Seoul on Diplo-
matte Business When Attacked-Mr.
Stevens .Pro.Japanese Views. the
Cause of Trouble.

San Francisco, Mar. 24.-Following
an attack by four Koreans at the Fair
mont hotel Sunday night, d. W. Ste
vens, a member of the Japanese con
sulate at Seoul, was shot and perhaps
fatally wounded Monday morning at
the ferry depot as he was about to
leave for Washington. The shooting
was done by N. w. Chun, a Korean
Stevens was shot twice, one bullet
penetrating his right lung and the
second the groin. A third bullet
struck a companion of the shooter, l.
w. Chong. A mob of five hundred
men pursued the shooter, who ran
from the scene and he was captured
by H. Sexton, a deputy in the asses
sor's office.
Mr.. Stevens and the wounded Ko.
rean were taken to the Central emer,
gency hospital. Mr. Stevens, accom-
panied by the Japanese consul, had
Just stepped out of the hotel omnibus
when several Koreans approached
them, one of whom said few words
to Stevens and then struck him in
the face.
He then drew revolver, covered
with a handkerchief and began shoot
ing at Stevens. At the hospital DR..
Hill extracted a bullet from the
wounded Korean who had been shot
through the lungs. Stevens is a man
of strong physique and is in splendid
health and may recover.
The attack on Stevens at the Fair
mont hotel on Sunday night was the
result of a mass meeting of Korean
societies of San Francisco which ap-
pointed four permanent members, Earl
Lee, c. X. Chung, Y. W.,Moon and U.
S. Choy, all young men, a committee
to interview Stevens to ascertain his
views as expressed in the press after
his arrival. The opinions expressed
by him were decidedly favorable to

reans called on Mr.. Stevens shortly
after 8 o'clock Sunday night. Lee, who
speaks English fluently asked Stevens
If he had made the statement attrib-
uted to him in the press, and the lat
ter replied in the affirmative. The
young men wanted to know If the Jap
anese were not killing off the Ko-
reans. Stevens said no. The spokes-
man then wanted to know If all the
Korean officials had not been elimin-
ated and Stevens again responded to
the contrary. adding that the young
men had probably been too long waya
from their country to know the exact
condition of the government.
Then that attack began. Stevens
was knocked down and beaten with
hotel chairs. His head struck the
marble flooring but he quickly rose
and Selling a chair placed his back
against the wall and held his assail-
ants at bay until help arrived.

-rrneless and Notwithstanding.

In my younger days out west, said
Senator Vest, went to a variety the
ater one night in Kansas City.
1t was one Of those primitive shows
where the stage manager comes before
the footlights without coat and waist
coat and with his shirt sleeves rolled
up to the elbows to announce the next
number of the programme.
Miss BERTHE Allendale," remarked
the stage manager, appearing in one
of the interludes, who has entranced
two hemispheres with her wonderful
vocal powers, will now render in her
inimitable style that exquisite vocal
selection entitled Down In the Val
10y"
: gentleman in red flannel shirt
rose in the midst Of the audience and
exclaimed in an impressive bass voice:
"0h, thunder! BERTHE Allendaie cant
sing for green 2pples,'
The manager, who had started to
leave the stage, halted and turned. An
ugly light flashed from his eye. He
came down from the stage, walked
slowly up to the man in the red shirt
and said, "You'n git out of here" This
invitation being decliued, Il combat fol.
lowed, lasting about ten minutes.
Chairs were broken, and both combat
ants were bruised and battered. Final.
~ the man in the red shirt was elected,
and the manager walked back to the
stage and faced the audience with n.
bloody face and clothing torn and tat
tered. He waited a minute, pumping
for breath, and then announced I'M
pressively:
Nevertheless and notwithstanding,
Miss BERTHE Allendale will now sing
her exquisite vocal selection entitled
Down In the Valley"
And she sang it with great applause
and an encore.

Autoing as a Fad.

A dispatch from Paris indicates that
the popularity Of automobiles, if not
waning, Is not on the increase In
France. The automobile is very USE
full machine, and its popularity does
not depend on the prevalence of a fad.
Indeed. it Is doubtful whether the fad
dists, who have only considered it from
the standpoint of sport and speed,
have not prevented the development
of a more solid popularity-that which
comes from recognition of usefulness.
Fashions are transitory, but anything
that meets q real economic need en-
dures. The automobile does that and
has therefore come to stay and Will
one day be more numerous on that &C
count than it could possibly be while
regarded more as plaything than
machine of solid merit. Paris is full OF
rich idlers ready for every novelty, the
more costly the better. Now that the
automobile has become the vehicle of
practical and homely commerce, the
sports" will throw it over, which Is,
after all, good thing for the general
public.

Her Choiea Tea.

There Is true story told of a wealthy
American lady who was in China and
one Of the court officials, wishing to
do her great honor, promised to send
her casket containing some extraor-
binary tea. In due time an exqui-
sitely packed box arrived containing
tea. She babe many Of her society
friends to series of afternoons, at
which this tea was served, its de-
liclous qualities expatiated upon and
all seemingly enjoyed the beverage.
At the end of the season when the
casket was almost empty she found a
very small beautifully decorated box,
which on opening contained the price
less tea. What she had used was the
dried tea leaves that had been used
probably time and again by coolies. 1t
seems that rare and costly tea is
packed in tea to preserve the aroma
and flavor. it was such a rich joke
upon herself that the hostess told the
story, and the society set had a good
laugh.--Chicago Record Herald.

Bryan Sides With Roosevelt.

Chicago, Feb. 15.-William j. Bry-
an, in an interview tonight, defining
the issues of the coming presidential
campaign, used the exact language of
President Roosevelt in the message
next to the last one sent by the Presi-
dent to Congress. Bryan said.
'The chief question is whether the
great CORPORATIONS shall con-r,l the
government or the government col-
troll the corporations"
While he did not specially charse
the republicans with repudiating the
presidents policy, he declared the
democrats stand for the Rooseveltian
principles, and by implication, Bryan
accused the republicans of rejecting
the platform of their leader.
This question enters into the con-
sideration of all others and dominates
them,' he added. THE big corpora
lions intrude in all matters pertain
ing to labor, to interstate commerce
abuses by railroads, to the tariff
problem, and they permeate every
channel of governmental affairs.
The Democrats purpose the elimi-
nation of that baneful influence and
the restoration of the government to
healthy state. The latest returns
from all parts of the country indi-
cate success. The republicans are
split with discussions and personal
factions, while the democrats practi-
caly are unit. The Slight demo-
cratic friction in the east will pass
away without any perceptible effort
before the time for voting arrives
BRYAN lectured tonight before the
atholic Women's Society on the
topic, THE Prince of Peace" He said
that politicians should accept Christ
as their model, and try to raise their
minds to the lofty plane of the re-
former who desired peace on earth
and good will to men,
Later he left for Indianapolis.
