the profession which he loved.

retained a law firm of Forest City
headed by Is. J. Thompson, to look
after his interests. Mr.. HasWell lives
at Albany, y. y, and had invested
largely of his money in bank stock thru

The result OF investigation shows
that the end Is not yet, and that not
only the stockholders must pay 1o0
per cent of the subscribed stock, which
will ruin many of them, but that Mr.
Haswell, now man well along in

His loss is estimated at fully one
third the defalcation.
There will accrue endless litigation,
there is no doubt, and the process of
law will extend over Il wide territory,
including Iowa, Minnesota, and tha
Dakotas. Real estate titles supposed
to have been valid and unassailable,
will be found to rest upon false deeds;
householders will be elected from
homes which they thought they owned,
or else renew a debt, already paid.
1t is thought it will take years be-
fore the matter is entirely untangled.
What will be saved from the wreck is
yet a matter of speculation.

The Korean Woman.

Most people think of the women in Korea as being
in all things very much like the in Japan,
but the idea is quite erroneous.
In the first place. immortality is unknown in Korea.
While the Japanese women wear the kimona, and
little else, this sort of garment is not at all
by the Korean women Their dress is made in four
parts A skirt, waist, undergarment and headdrcss.
The skirt is gathered on band after fashion
similar to our and is open in the back Under
this is full bloomer arrangement reaching
to the ankles The waist is a sort of Elton jacket
with loose open sleeve 1t fastens down the front
and there is a belt sash of the material,
which is often of the very daintest white linen of
a silky texture. Over the head is worn a sort of
apron shaped piece of material like the dress, gath
cred at the top and hanging below the shoulders.
This opens in front but is held together so as to
carefully conceal all the features except the eyes,
it is considered very immoral for a Korean woman
to allow to see her face, and indeed Korean
would be dsgraced should he be seen looking at
the uncovered face of woman
1t is only since the Russo japanese war that
Korea has been visited by foreigners but the people
exceedingly hospitable and welcome with great
interest those who to bring them the knowledge
of western civilization.
In some respects the Korean women re-
ceptve to the Christian teachings than are the Japan
and it is said by the missionaries that their gentle
ways, their howery language and their lavish and
sincere hospitality is something long to be remem-
bered by those who visit them

when allowed to participate in elections. If they al
ways vote with their husbands brothers and fathers
little will be gained and the election clerks will be
put to double trouble in counting the ballots If
they vote independently, regardless of their male
kndreds example or advice, they will have to read
up, form opinions and get wise.
How many women have time to do that? What
would be satisfied to let the baby go
groomed while she pored the editorials in her
favorite political journal? How many bachelor
girls would plead prior engagements, when their
friends asked to call in order seek light upon the
tariff
There many women, all will agree with Mrs
Deland, who fit to vote than the
are, and most of such women have much pleasanter
things to think of and to do than to study politics
and interfere in wild elections. Thousands of the
mixed up in the Improbable din and scramble
of it would greatly prefer to remain out of it, as
most do; and have already
gotten entirely away from it.
