CRE AN CONVERTS On Trial for Conspiring for Corea's Independence. •••••••,,l IF.•••••••••••• Are Christian Missionaries Implicated in Case? Seoul, Corea, July 15. -The direct ex- amination of 123 converted Coreans, who are charged. with plotting against the Government and the life of Count Ter- auchi, the Japaneee Governor-General nf Corea, developed a most confusing situa- tion. The preliminary examination be- gan num 28, and a majority of the pris- oners set. uo a denial of all the charges. in answer to the judgett questions they said that their previous statements, made before the pollee examiner, were falee. They explained that they had made them because they were beaten or threatened. A few of the prisonere ad- mitted connection with an organization whiell had for its purpose the independ- ence of Corea. Baron notch o w, a former m ember of the Coreau Cabinet, openly admitted having made false statements' at the pre- liminary trial in order to save him. seta A majority of the prieonert are Poe- byterian converts, Yunchow is a Metho- dist. At tile preliminary hearing many of the prisoners made alleged confeseions implicating a number of 1nm-den:miss, as- serting that the miesionaries were cog- • nizant of the plans and approved the conspiracy. The ehief judge's queetions were large- ly devoted to this phase of the ease. He probed deeply into the alleged connee- tion of the missionaries in the conspir. acy, but the prisoners emphatically de. med thet the missionaries, were implicat- ed in any way. The name of Bish-op M. C. Harris was mentioned. once by the judge, but ;the authorities assert that they have not the slightest idea thet any of the mis- sionaries, especially Bishop Danis, has had, any knowledge of the plot. - The *United States has rettched its period of deeliae, is announced by Baron eff. nernekow, a widely travelled German, who, eentributes to the Reiche- bote, a Berlin newepaner, an article sum- marizing impreeeione he gained on the ee latt (.4.f his many Vi511/3 to America. Artielee of this nettle e are not infre- quent in the German press, but otdinar- ily they are writtea with suth inani- tett aninntii that they deserve -no notice. Baron Von Barnekow, on the co -weary, writes in a matter of fact way, without a trace of anti-American fouling, feeling, and appears genuinely glad to be able to see some hope that the decline may bo it That this decline has begun, writes the baron, gist be observed by any per- son who V3SitS America after an air- s:once of a few year. The change for the worse has been very rapid. The seenos that have attended the Republi- can campaign for the Presidental nom- ination are but one indication of the ehan,ge, which is marked by a hither- to unknown indifference, a tendency to let things take their eouree; by an en - healthy and excessive self -appreciation, and a general coarsening of moral views. All these, says Baron von Barnekow, are products of the hiet few years. )".-- The moral coarsening has worked down from the top, from the newly rich. An- other indication of decay is the al- leged fact that the Amerlean intoler- ance of the drone, of the gentleman of leisure, is beginning to disappear. Sug- gested as a possible contributing cause of the decline is the fact that the birth- rate among the old American families is falling off, while it remains high among the South European immigrants. The old familiee of the New England States and of the South have ae yet been less affected by t he demoralizing t endency of present Ameriean affairs than the People of any other section. It is, however, in the farmers of the 'United States that Baron vonBerne- kow sees a possibility of arresting the downward movement. AS yet, he says, they have not been touched by the moral decline. The dwellerin the country, he decleres, "represent to -day throughout the republie the dependable, eonservative element, lit which an up. right Christianity and a high standard Of family life have been preserved; they represent the most industrious tied de. Revving portion of the whold population of the coutitry." An etpooml word of praise is spoken for the Germanaatner- lean fanners, -• • The trial eontinues, but up to the present it is impossible to arrive at any definite opinion, except that possibly a conspiracy existed, but was entirely abortive. It is believed that some of those concernea construed certain sym- pathetic, utterances by the missionaries into encouragement of the plans looking to the independence of Oorea. TEN COREANS ARRESTED.

Paris, July 13. ---The no -hat brigade has not only invaded the streets of Paris, but at the evening cafes many women came with their hair profuse - yl powdered, and 'nearly all the pa- pers given to fashion, in commenting upon this revival of the style of Louis XVI., commend it. At Auteuil last week many women. wore their hair powdered and come without hats. Everyone agreed that the youthful faces gained in fineness and grace from their silver setting. The daring Innovators rely on the stage to give sanction and impetus to their ideas, and it may well prove that the lengthy vogue of Titian tresses and blonde ringlets will soon be ended. : SAVED HIS, LIFE Irish Lighthouse Keeper's Arm Blown Off.

"I weigh seven stone," began the let- ter, winch was signed with the unro- mantic name, Annie Calder, "my hair is black, as are my eyes, I am not so tail, or so short."

Wouldn't the man who found her let- ter pietism write to her, and tell her what chance there was here for a girl to get along. Even a pieture postal card be welcomed.
