Koreans Superstition as to
Funeral Rites Leads Them
to Queer Violations Of
the Laws.

curious social fact about Korea Is
that the most numerous crimes commit
ted by Koreans are connected in some
way with tombs and burials. This Is
the conclusion OF n. 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 II is almost invariably. done
under cover Of darkness.
The underlying reason for these Of
fenses Is the Korean superstition that
the prosperity or unhappiness Of the sur
viving members of the family in which
death has occurred as well as the, happi-
ness OF the departed person. depends upon
the selection OF the burial ground Of the
dead. Therefore when Koreans are told
by soothsayers that a certain spot Is
good for the burial place they do not
hesitate to take possession Of the indi-
Gated ground.
Blackmail concerning tombs also Is fire.
quent The criminals first open up the
tombs belonging to some wealthy fam
ily, then remove the head of the corpse
and hold 1t for ransom. In former times
the blackmailer succeeded. as Koreans

Prince Albert I, OF Monaco.
But to proceed with this fateful years
developments.
The hateful subterfuge Of a morganatic
marriage is a possible resort when a
prince falls in love with a common
girl But what when a princess prefers
commoner TO all the sickly crowned
youth put before her for her selection?
The latter was the problem of the beau-
tiful Sophie of xe-Weimar-Eisenach,
and she solved it with-death.
1t is a sad position which the house OF
Saxe-Weimar occupies-ancient and royal
as the hills, but so impecunious their pal
ace furnishings are threadbare.
The princess had been betrothed to a
dissipated, middle-aged cousin, and had
broken the engagement only by personal
appeal to the Kaiser. A young ieuten-
ant, whom she may have loved, had shot
himself dead for her in Athens five years
before, and the crown princess OF Greece,
sister of the Kaiser, had wept real tears
at his burial
Outside the Purple.
The men Of the house had in several
cases found happiness outside Of the
purple. Her uncle, Duke Bernard, found
"a loving wife, and her brother. Prince
Hermann. was also serene in his possess

palace. Her own father had fed to
America in his youth and had even
worked as a waiter in New York for a

family? Such exits from court restraint
were barred to them. She was now a
proud girl, past twenty-five, living a life
without love.
There appeared the young Won Blei-
chroeder, member of the banking house
which is said to have made possible the
German victory over France in 1870. The
Kaiser, pitying the melancholy royal girl
he had even looked with favor on the
young lieutenant-consented. but the
grand duke of Saxony, head of the house,
would not listen.
Then came an incident in the forest of
Fontainebleau, near Paris. A gypsy's
child was killed by a magnificent motor
car, and in the car, IL came out had been
the handsome young banker and Princess
Sophie.
After that Sophie kept to her room
in the ancient. threadbare palace She
vas practically under arrest She slept
late one morning. A maid knocked Ions
and hard and finally dared to push open
the door. Across the bed lay white
form, a pistol clutched in her hand and
an united packet Of letters half strewn
up upon the coveriet.
Scandal of Princess William.
Then there is the scandal Of the
Princess William. Lacking perhaps the
