MORGAN'S COAT OF ARMS.
Financier Credited With Remark Both
Humorous and True.
J. I'lerpunt Morgan I* gifted with a
great deal more of humor than I* gen
orally known. Not long ago. while In
l/indon. he was Introduced to a lady
who made some pretensions to peer-
age 'Pardon me.*’ said this lady,
haughtily, to which Morgana do you
belong?" "Oh. we are an Independent
geant at arm*. But few of them de-
face the capttol with their penknives
in quite such conspicuous fashion. Ar-

ties to leave an Impression of his
presence behind him. He Is said to
have been no paragon as a page boy,
but a very ordinary, active, mischiev-
ous youngster.
HOW MAKARCFF MET DEATH.
Japanese Knew Hi* Method of Sail-
ing, and Laid the Trap.
A letter from Moscow to the l»n-
j don Telegraph says: "Admiral Mak-
, ;iroff. unaccustomed to maneuver a
| large squadron In so difficult a place
nr, Port Arthur, frequently had such
slight mishaps as collisions of ships,
which, fortunately, entailed no seri-
ous consequences. Finally he drew
up and stereotyped a plan of maneu-
vers, according to which ships had
to form In line of battle outside the
harbor, each one taking up a specified
place, and from this arrangement he
never departed. The Japanese,
noticing this uniformity, anchored a
contact mine In the position assigned
to the Petropavloak. and In this way
the disaster was brought about. A
few minutes before the catastrophe
an officer twice requested the admiral
tu seek for contact mines, but he
was told to mind his own business
The officer repeated the warning a
third time and Mal aroff ordered him
to go away Immediately under threat

kings.” "Ah. then you have a coot of___
arms’" Mr Morgan dug down Info j RELIGION AND THE LAW

he said. “Is our coat of arms: a few
other families have adopted the same
emblem. But," he continued, confl
dcntlall), "we are gathering them in
as fast as possible."
Not a Practical Politician.
Senator lb-pew addressed Yale stu-
dents a few days ago. his subject oe
lug politics. His speech was pitched
In a high key, and some of his audit-
ors look note of Ibis fait ‘ TUut was
a beautiful speci h. senator," said a
reckless Junior In the evening. “But
we feel ourselves Incapable of apply-
ing your tlnorlca to actual life Won t
you give us a footnote—something,
senator. If you please, on practical
politics?" But the Homan featured
statesman answered only; "flood

should call on the highest living au-
thority—-Thomas C, Platt."

One Effect of Enactment of the Mas-
sachusetts Legislature.
At the Columbia university com-
mencement . luncheon Dean Van Am-
ringe. who presided referred playfully
and under hta breath, between
courses, to the fact Ihnt the Manta-
chuiietts legislature had granted tho
right to the Young Men's Christian as
six'lation to confer the degree of bach-
elor of lawn. "Too bad that ‘Ben’
Butler did not live to kuow of It.” he
observed. "It would have been
pleasant reflection to him that the bay
stale, always first in public virtue,
should recognise the connection be-
tween religion and law." "Precisely
so," rejoined his neighbor. "And now
It is possible to place on a Boston
tombstone the words. ‘Here Ilea a law-

the trouble of putting two men Into

Once again Japan finds herself in |
control of Korea, "land of the morn-
ing freshness." This is by no means
a new experience for Japan. It was
in the third century A. D. that the
empress regent of Japan herself led ,
an expedition against Korea. From
that time to the end of the fourteenth
century, with a few interruptions, the
relations of Korea to Japan were
those of vassal to suzerain. Then
China came Into ascendancy and from
that time on up to the war of 1894
she rcialntd the principal control of
the hermit kingdom. That war end-
ed Chinese suzerainty In Korea and
gave to Japan the control of a coun-
try which it had coveted for centur-
ies.
But the Japanese showed little wis-
dom or moderation in their treat-
ment of the Koreans. The admirer
of the Jap must pass over the period
from 1894 to 1897 with closed eyes
lest his confidence In the intelligence
of Japanese statecraft receive a se-
vere Mow. Korea was ruled with a
high hand. Business and political
morality were thrown to the wind, the
public offices became more corrupt
than before. If such a thing were pos-
sible in a country cursed for cen-
turies by a system of official corrup-
tion for which It would be difficult to
find a parallel.
At the same time a series of the
most drastic reforms was instituted,
and Korea shuddered with horror at
the desecration of its most revered
customs and traditions. Japan, flat-
tered with its brilliant military suc-
cess. became irrational. She Insisted
upon the abolition of the Korean
method of wearing the hair. The
king was made to cut off his topknot
nnd the people were compelled to do
the same. The queen, a bitter enemy
of Japan, was murdered, the Japanese
minister being an accessory to the
outrage. Then the terrified king fled
to the Russian embassy for protec-
tion, a mob of Koreans murdered the
agents of Japan in the higher official
positions, and the uprising swept Ja-
pan from the Korean courts. Russia
become the dominant Influence.
Now the fortunes of war have giv-
en Korea to the Japanese once more,
ft la to he hoped that they will profit
by their former experience and rule
Korea with moderation. The art of
governing a colony lies In non-inter-
ference with the non-essentials and
concentration upon the essentials.
The Japanese are quick to learn. It
Is to be hoped that In their future
troatment of Korea they will not
make the mess of things they did in
1W4-7.

HIS PERIOD OF LEISURE.
Work as Organizer Competed, Von
Moltke Waited for War.
Talk of army reorganization recalls
a story told of Von Moltke. the great
German military master, who held
that when war begins the work of the
organizer ceases. In 1870. a few days
after the mobilization of the Germany
army had been ordered, a friend of
Von Moltke, who was anxious to see
him on important business, railed up-
on him in some trepidation of mind,
expecting to find him overwhelmed
with work. He was shown into the
count's study and found him lying on
a sofa reading a French novel. “You
could not have come at a better time,
my dear fellow,” was his welcome.
"My work was ended when mobiliza-
tion was ordered. I begin again when
we move to the front."
