Seoul, Korea, Oct. 10.-A curious so
cial fact about Korea is that the most
numerous crimes committed by Ko-
reans are connected in some way
with tombs and burials. This is the
conclusion Of NJ. Kokubu, chief pub
lie procurator OF the supreme court
here. A common occurrence is for
Koreans to bury their dead in ground
belonging to other people without first
obtaining the consent of the owner.
This is sometimes accomplished in
secret, sometimes by force. and it is
almost invariably done under cover
OF darkness.
The underlying reason for these of.
fences is the Korean superstition that
the prosperity or unhappiness Of the
surviving members Of the family in
which death has occurred. as well as
the happiness Of the departed person
depends upon the selection OF the
burial ground OF the dead. There
fore when Koreans are told by sooth
sayers that a certain spot is good
for the burial place they do not hest
tate to take possession of the indi
Gated ground.
Blackmail concerning tombs also Il
frequent. The criminals frs. open VI
the tombs belonging 10 some wealth!
family. then remove the head of the
corpse and hold 1t for ransom. In for
mer times the blackmaiier succeeded
as Koreans believe that the desecra
ton OF tombs brings woe TO those whit
allowed them to remain in a ruined
condition. Recently these crimes hav,
decreased, owing TO the activity OF tn,
police.
Mr.. Kokubu has recorded anothe,
favorlte Korean custom. namely, tn,
carrying of by force of widows b.
bachelors who are unable to marry ii

poverty.
Influenced by Confucianism. Korean
women in general believe tina. the

A novel Interpretation of how the
Monroe doctrine should be applied
after the completion of the Panama
canal has just been voiced by a Ger
man diplomat of authority and high.
position. In substance it is to give
the United States full control as far
south as the isthmian waterway, but
to let the countries of Europe, includ-
ing Germany, have free field from
Panama to TERRA del Fuego.
The high standing of this diplomat
may reasonably be expected to influ-
ence the standpoint of Germany in any
future controversy involving the IA
nous doctrine of American foreign re-
lations; consequently his views are not
without a certain interest. He would
cut the American continent in two at
the Panama canal and allow to the
United States full and free hand as
far south as that waterway, but ex-
clude from the sphere Of any WASH
ington supervision or control the rela-
lions of Germany, and the other Eu-
ropean powers, with the states of
South America He believes Germany
should refrain from any interference
whatsoever in Mexico, and that the
same rule should apply to all the Cen
trail American states. This would in
volve a virtual extension of the south
the canal, so far as the relations of
these states to the European powers
is concerned. This, it will be seen, is
the Monroe doctrine for Central Amer
ica in an even stronger form than is at
present enforced.
But the European states must and
should, this diplomat believes, be al
lowed TO settle their controversies
with the countries south of this line
in their own way and without refer
ence TO Washington. The role of the
United States as guardian and pro.
! tector to the whole continent is, he be-
| lieves, a thing OF the past; the South
American states have reached years
OF discretion; they are out of legiti-
mate sphere Of control of the Amer
( lean department of state: the coun-
tries Of Europe are entitled to insist
on a free hand in their relations with
them.

Berlin, Oct. lois is dark in Prussia

The mere fact that it may happen still
TO be daylight in defiance of police

This is the decree of the Prussian
supreme court in an appeal taken by
truck owner accused of driving after
dark without a lantern on his wagon.
The law prescribes that a lantern
must be carried by such vehicles after
dark, and the police have decided that
| it is dark thirty minutes after the
sun sets. The defendant admitted he
had driven after the prescribed time
without a lantern, but contended that
! it was still light. Two lower courts
permitted him to prove his contention
and acquitted him. The police, the
| lower courts held, have no power to
set a certain time when it shall be

supreme court has reversed this de-
cision upon appeal by the prosecutor
and imposed fine on the offender.
An analogous ruling has been made
in an action for damages, brought by

A decided check in the growth of
| Germany's population, most alarming
to the military apostles of the empire,
/ is shown by the statistics for 1911
which have just been published.
The surplus of births over deaths
fell from $4,000 in 1910 to 100000 in
1911, a shrinkage in the rate of growth
of 10000, or over Is per cent. This
marked retardation in the growth of
the nation was due both to a reduction
in the number of births and an in
! crease in marriages from 496,396 to
| 512,S19 the total number of births for
/ the empire dropped from S1,9S2,S36 in
1910 to 1,927,039 in 1911. while on the
other hand, the number of deaths rose
from 1,103,723 to 1.1S7,O94, an increase
of more than $4,000. This increase in
mortality is attributed chiefly to the
extraordinary heat and drouth which
prevailed during the summer of 1911
and under which infants suffered with
particular severity.
Almost third of the deaths, 359, 522,
during the year were of children I'M
der one year old, some $4,000 babies
more than in 1910 succumbing to the
heat The death rate for children in
their first year rose from 1872 in
1910 to 1872 in 1911. The general death
rate too, after steady decline for a
number of years, rose to 1872 per 1000
as compared with III in 1910.
Summing up the statistics in an.
other form the net surplus of births
; over deaths per thousand of popula
ton was only 113 in 1911, as against
1876 in 1910 and 149 in 1906, These
statistics bring out also the fact that
almost 80 per cent of the illegitimate
= children died before reaching Their
first birthday.
