THE UNKNOWN SORROW OF THE
HERMIT KINGDOM
Continued next week.

One boy went through this several
| times.
Before the trial began, nine oil
the prisoners were exiled without
trial. The report is out that they
were manned and crippled by th5
tcrtures so they did not dare bring
them up before the public.
There is no doubt but that it is
an attack on the church and against
the missionaries. Over and over
again the prisoners were asked such
questions as, Did you not confer
with missionaries about the plot u
kill the Governor-General? Did not
the missionaries give you the pistol
to kill so-and-so?
but we all comfort ourselves by
the thought that God rules, and He
will not allow His church TO suffer.
IL all has some good purpose in it,
and will result i'm good. Our hearts
are aching for the dear Korean pris-
oners and for all they have suffered.
Pray for them, for the church, and
for the Japanese. All this only
proves how pitiably the Japanese
need the Gospel. Poor people!"
Has Japan repented todayl Her
greedinass pnd bloody deeds are
growing more steadily than ever
before. The Japanese kill our men
by persecution, by Imprisonment,
and by exile. Today the prisons
are filled by Korean patriots. The
Koreans love for their country, as
it is universal in any nation, is so
sincere and burning that they often
adventurously set forth the pOliti-
cal movements against the unlaw-
fulness and terror Of the Japanese
reign. Oh! what falls upon the pa
triotsl The Japanese sword and
might fall upon them as the sudden
thunderstorm over-sways the stern
forest. The lovers of Korea strug-
gle and shed their tears in vain,
and the only result TO them is the
sentence of death or life imprison-
ment.
Some time ago, the Rev C.. I.
Bates, of Tokyo, wrote that Japan
is doing marvellous things in Korea
for the Korean people. Some mis-
sionaries in Japan, under the Jap
anese influence, became the pro-
Japanese. Let us consider for

HEAVY WHEAT DEMAND

FORECAST BIG CROP
PRICE NOW GUARANTEED
There Will Be Very Strong Calls
For Cereal From Across
The Water

Washington, April 9.-The depart
ment of agricultures forecast that the
nations winter wheat crop would total
SS7,OO0,0O0 bushels, the biggest crop
ever grown, aroused immediate specu-
lation as to the cost to the govern
ment OF such yield.
Under the bill passed by congress,
the government is obligated to pay the
difference between the guaranteed
price of 1926 bushel and the world
market price for every bushel of win
ter and spring wheat produced.
The total value of the winter wheat
crop on the basis of an S37 900 600
bushel crop forecast would be 81 Sell
100000. The spring wheat crop can
not he estimated at this time but de-
partment of agriculture officials today
predicted it would range between 225,-
100000 and 300,000,000 bushels, which
would increase the total value of the
nations wheat crop to approximately
two and half billion dollars.

was matter upon which officials here
declined 10 comment. 1t was said that
tie factors influencing the world mar
ket price were too numerous to make
any prediction. The Department of
Agriculture has no information as to
estimated wheat production in the
other whSlt-grOwir; countries.
Cficials be,iava there will be a good
foreign demand for American wheat

quickly into circulation, thus adding
to the general prosperity of the nation.
Greatest Surplus in History.
The forecast indicated that America
will have greater surplus than ever
