Korea's New Educational Law.

Concerning the new educational law
in Korea. the Christian Observer
(Lntheran Presbyterian) says:
THE problem that Is presenting
greatest difficulty to our Korean Mis-
sions at the present time is the new
educational law recently promulgated
by the japanese Government in ko-
rea, which virtually makes all schools
in Korea government schools. No
schools may may open In the future
witohut permit, and in order to Sc
cure a permit they must conform to
the requirements OF the new law. This
law requires that all schools shall have
one set OF textbooks. many of which
teach heather practices such as en-
percr-wOrship. and that all teachers
must be approved by the Government.
There must be no teaching Of the
Bible, no prayers. no singing Inside
the school building or during school
hours, and all attendance must be
voluntary. The missionaries in ko-
rea are calling earnestly for the pray
ers Of the church at home that this
law. which will work hardship to the
cause Of Christian missions, may be
modified in its application to Chris
tian schools.
IAN our schools hold ten-year per-
nits except Eoonclhun. which must
either conform 70 the new law or be

WAITED LONG FOR PROBATE
After Twenty Years Son Produces Fa-
ther's WiIi-Testator's Instructions
Had Been Obeyed.

Undiscovered for nearly twenty
years after his death, the will of 10.
ham Michael Muller has been offered
for probate at Baltimore by his son,
John G. A. Muller. The testator died
March 13, 1896. having made his will
on May 81, 1889.
The paper, yellow and musty with
age, left all Mr.. Muller's property to
his wife, Elizabeth Barbara Muller.
She died April 80, 1915. and her son
was appointed administrator of her
estate. He had known of the exist
ence of the will for several months
prior to his mothers death, but since
all the property had been enjoyed by
Mrs. Muller as her husband had de-
sired. it was not thought necessary
to probate the will at that time.
The son says the property will now
be divided between his two brothers
and himself. since his mother died in
testate. The exact value of the estate
has not been determined, but it is
made up almost entirely of parcels Of
real estate.

INFORMATION EASY TO GIVE
Daddy Happily in Possession Of
knowledge as to Where One Vac
uum Was Located.

The good man had just been in
formed by the only person who could
possibly possess the information that
he hadn't an ounce of sense. that he
had never had an ounce of sense. and
that there was not the remotest
chance that he ever would have an
ounce of sense.
Having been assured on these
points, the good man turned to his
paper, only to be interrupted by his
young son and heir:
Father" asked the boy, what is
a vacuum and where can l find one?"
"My boy" replied the good man. III
we are to assume that your mother is
qualified to speak on the subject, l
possess the only real vacuum in the
neighborhood and. for your further in
formation. 1t is situated just between
my collar and the glossy open space

You mean your dome?'
Yes, my son. that is the family vac

Modernizlnq the Roundup.

Each year seems to give the auto
mobile a new hold on life. The war
brought it to the forefront in a new
field. The soldier of the present day
seldom makes long forced marches
like Sherman's march to the sea. He
travels by motor car AS result, the
automobile casualty list is tremen-
dous; the average life of a car in the
battle lines is estimated at thirty days.
But 1t is not only the war zone that
has lost part of Its picturesqueness
through the use of the automobile,
the latter has begun to rob the an
nual cattle roundup Of some. of its
thrills by replacing the horse. This
year has seen the ubiquitous car with
a cowboy at its wheel on our western
prairies dlscouraging the cattle from
attempts to escape from the ever-nar-
rowing circle in the roundup. Many a
steer which has given a COW horse a
run must feel disconnected when 1t
bucks up against the four-wheeled
steed.-Wall Street Journal,

GEORGIA MILITIA CALLED OUT
Lynchine Feared in Attempt to Seize
convicted SLAYER Of Mary Phagan.

Atlanta, Ga, July 14.-Three COM
panies of state militia were called out
last night to prevent the release OF
Leo NJ. Frank from the Milledgeville
state farm, following reports received
by the governor that mobs were on
their way to that institution. In addi-
ton. word was sent to the police of
all counties in this part of the state
and every road leading to the state
farm from Atlanta, Manetta and other
towns is heavily guarded. The exact
purpose of the mobs Is not known Re-
ports state only that 1t is their inten-
tion to take Frank out of the state
prison. 1t is believed in many quar-
ters that the rioters intended to lynch
Frank if they succeed in overpower-
ing the guards at Milledgeville.

COLORADO MINES BUSY
NO INCREASE IN OUTPUT EXCEPT
FOR GOLD.
Average Prices for Lead, Copper and
Zinc Add Materially to Total
Value Of Output.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Leadville, Colo-The output of Colo
RADIO mines during the first six months
of 1915. according to Charles w. Hen
| derson, of the United States Geologi-
| cal Survey, will show no increase in
actual metal contents, except for gold.
| The increase in average prices for
| lead, copper, and zinc, based on the
normal production, will. however, add
greatly to the total value of the out
put, and the undoubted activity in
mining promises at least the normal
| production of metals for the year 1915.
which at the exceedingly high aver
age prices at this stage of the year,
promises a greatly enhanced total pro-
| duction.
Colorado, in the last five years
| 1910-1915-has averaged 500 in
output of gold dropping from $780,

with 1872, .S12 pounds. but dropping
to 96.774,960 pounds in 1914 The to-
tai value for the five metals has aver
aged s34,4S0,0O0, when silver ranged
from s0.53 to S0.615, copper from
$O125 to S00.165, lead from $0.039 to
s0045, and zinc tspelter) from $O.O51
to $0.069.
Cripple Creek annually produces 60
of hn fof vic nf gold
and in the first six months of 1915 has
proportionately exceeded the produc-
tion of s11.996.116 for the twelve
months of 1914. The San Juan region
has produced normally on basis of
s4,000.000 per year, and Leadville
probably has exceeded its normal gold
production because of shipments of
siliceous gold ores from Breeze Hill
mines, while the Clear Creek-Gilpin
region has produced slightly in ex-
cess of the normal production. The
Summit County dredges have main
tanned a production of about 100000
for the half year.
Little change has been made in the
yield of silver. Copper is mainly
hy-product in Colorado. but heavily in
creased shipments of copper ore from
Rico for the six months show an in.
crease of about 100000 pounds of cop
per during that time.
Lead production will increase some
what, due to an increase in yield OF
zinc concentrates from the concen-
tration of lead-zinc ores at Red Cliff
and breckenridge.
Zinc ores from Colorado. during the
first six months of 1915 have shown a
small increase in tonnage, but de-
crease of . or 3 per cent. in grade.

London, July 1.-THE German EN-

speech to a deputation of bankers, who
had insisted on an interview in order
to point out to the Emperor the finan-
cial difficulties of the situation and
the grave risk attending the pursuance
of the campaign through another win
ter, stated that the war would end in
October The bankers are alleged to
have declared that even If the war
was brought to an end Immediately
and an indemnity obtained, Germany's S
position would be difficult; but that if
the war was prolonged the German
Empire would become utterly bank

1t was in reply to these representa-

Emperor is understood to have de-
clared that the war would end in
