Anti-Japanese posters appeared suddenly and mysteriously on walls and were at once ripped off by Japanese policemen.
 Late in the afternoon two Korean off ciais, emissaries from the Emperor, came hr1rying over to the legation and were received by Willard Straight. His Ma jesty asked advice of his honored friends, the Americans. What should he do? The Japanese envoys were demanding an au- d:ence, and really he was too sick to grant them an interview-nuch too sick. This was an old familiar device of the Elm peror's, to avoid disagreeable conver sations.
 Straight reminded the emssaries that they had been counseled some time be- fore to make direct appeal. MT. Nor gan could not advise the Korean govern ment, of course, until he had consulted the State Department at Washington.
 You have three courses" Straight told them: ''one, to refuse the Japanese de- mards absolutely and take the conse- quences; two, to accept conditionally and under protest, reserving the right of appeal to foreign nations; three, to yield and make the best condition possib ble.'
 At half past 10 o'clock that night so runs Straights daryl went out for stroll around the compound. There was a rattling of rickshaws, and 1 went be- low. On looking over the wall I saw that the Japanese were going away Hase- gawa's carriage had already gone. could see that the compound was still full of Japanese policemen Koreans in their court dress were fluttering to and fro. It seemed impossible, as I stood there in the moonlight behind the hedge, that the fate of nation had been sealed within Q yards of where I stood, that an in- dependent empire of 100000 people had agreed to subjuga-te itself to bullying ano exploitation without a struggle"

 It has been said in laudation of the Caucasians superiority over the Afro Americans that the white man can sur pass the colored man even at being col ored. There is an element of truth in that, but there is something also to be said on the contrary. There is some- thing elusive in the tones of the colcred mans voice, his physiognomy and his mahnerisms which are most easily DOT trayed by the colorcd talent This IS one reason for the real entertainment offered by The Smarter Set who h. clude many gifted comedians, singers and dancers whose voices are good.
