Having nothing better to do, the old

"No, sir, I've always 'ad this same

"A long time, my man, a very long

THE FAITH IN KOREA.

Korea stands in the Annals of the
Church for the symbol of persecution
and martyrdom, as the blood-stained
chapter in the Annals of the Propaga-
tion of the Faith" as the best known
page in the history of the Society of
the Foreign Missions of Paris.
There is nothing in the records of
the missions so like martyrology as
the history of the Church in Korea.
Her whole history is written in blood.
Every date is marked by persecu-
tion; every detail describes a scene
of torture, dungeon or an execution.
Every person discovered to be Chris
ton is invariably a martyr, her first
neophyte was a martyr; her first Chin
csc apostle was a martyr, her first ma
tive priest was a martyr, her first
Bishop was martyr, her first Euro
pean missionaries were all martyrs.
In fact in reading the history of the
Korean Church we scarcely know
which most to admire, the heroism of
the missionary in Drawing the toll, tor
ture and death in order to bring spirit
ual succor to the neophytes, or the
invincible tenacity with which the lat
ter chung to religious truth, even when
presented to them in the most imper-
feet outline.

A MOUNTAIN MISSION IN CHINA
DESTROYED.

Warfare between two wild mountain
tribes in Kien-tchang, China, has
brought disaster on the mission to the
Lolos. Bishop ]. Bourgain, P. F. NJ,
says that the savage Barbares fell up
on them, burning their home, and
either killing or making captives of
most of the tribe. The Bishop him
self and one of the priests who set out
to the scene of disaster to try and save
the poor Lolos had an encounter with
the brigands and only escaped harm
by their GOODNESS and presence of
mind.
Of course the chapel and schools
suffered and the Christians have fled
from the district. This is a sad blow
to the priests who have worked hard
to secure hold on the mountain peo-
pie who are far from easy to evange-
lie.
