many of the workmen from drowning in the St Lawrence Those who were not stunned by the great tum ble seized the big steel girders which were carried to the river bot tom and were thus saved from drowning Nearly all the men killed or drown ed are Americans skilled employees of the Phoenix Company Search for the bodies have been promptly in stituted The bridge was the hope of Quebec The accident will delay completion for two years more According to the last reports the accident does not interfere with the navigation In the channel Vessels have already passed through to as certain the

residents in the country Koreans are of Mongolian ori gin tall robust and rather prepos sessing in appearance Their- lang uage is polysyllabic In dress cus toms and architecture they show the influence of Chinese civilization The Chinese claim to have civilised Korea in the twelfth century Woman ibe Burden Bearer Korea has been under the suzerainty of China from earliest times except for a brief period between and when it was under Japanese protection until when Japan signed a treaty recognizing it as an independent nation The burdens of life tall more heavily upon the women of Korea than in most countries even in the East it would he difficult to point to any nation where the lot of women more completely unenviable than in Korea The male Korean except in the highest classes regards his wife as the burden bearer of the family Curiously enough however the male Korean Iocs not attain to the full dignity of mans estate until he mar ries No matter how long he may defer that event he is compelled to go barebeaded and to wear his hair in a pigtail until his wedding He is treated as a hoy excluded from the councils of the men and is a per son of no consequence during the pig tail period of his life Queer Medicine Korea is the paradise of quacks As medicine the ground skull of a tig er is high in favor for all ills while ginseng pulverized horns of a fawn macerated spiders and similar mix are consumed in great quanti ties with trust and confidence in their virtues In surgery their prac tice is limited to the crudest opera tions Religion Korea as far as there may be said to be any on Chinese patterns with such results as might be expected Law and the administration of justice are utterly feeble and reoking with corruption The reins off government as in China are in the hands of a class which family tradition lives by the shameless oppression and robbery of the poor Koreans are passionately devoted to flowers although comparatively fciv have the means to indulge their taste in this direction Never Use Milk The land is generously blessed with animal life There are no oxen how ever and Koreans never use milk or any of Its products The work Is all done by bullocks which usually at tain magnificent development With out bis the Korean would be helpless and this fact is cited to prove that the Koreans have never been a people Korea produces no sheep but none In that country Is so poor as not to own at least one dog No family would he complete without a dog Koreans unlike the Japanese love a good Jire the chill blasts of winter sweep across the barren coun try This fondness for warmth Is the cause that barren appearance which has ho often been referred to by travellers Hie Koreans keep the forests cut to the quick to provide fuel while the canny Japs let their forests grow and shiver Everybody Smokes smokes In Korea Both and women use pipes with a tiny metal bowl and sterns long that generally help must asked to them As they are inveterate the greater part of the Korean day Is consumed in loading and light ing pipes The Koreans are essentially an agricultural people They come from a stock entirely dlflerent from their blood which is so strongly marked in the composition of the warlike Japanese Fortified by Smells Seoul the capital is an ancient walled city built in a network of hills eighteen miles from the sea It is fortified in the strongest fashion by a system of smells that would drive any but an Asiatic army gasp ing into sea Seoul is poor in appearance but rich in fleas- On autumn nights tigers and other beasts of prey fre quently contest the right of way with belated travellers on the streets The vista across the housetops of Seoul is one of appalling monotony All chimneys empty into the narrow streets and about tyo feet from the ground and at eventide when goodwives start their fires the pall of smoke and ashes that settles upon the town would make a London fog look like a section of the cerulean blue The one advantage of- the smoke evil in Seoul is its ability to sup press the odours which rise up from its- thoroughfares City of Mourners Seoul is the home of mourners In deed it may be said literally with the Scriptures that tbe mourners go about- the streets When a Korean is bereaved by the death of a close relative he is entitled to mourn his loss for a period of three years and during this time he is not expected to perform any labor As the aver age male Korean professes a lofty scorn for labor at any time it is quite to he expected that the period of is accepted with rcsignation if not embraced with joy by nearly all The wall surrounding Seoul from which kites fly perennially is a small replica of the great Chinese wall The traveller is welcomed at the west gate- but should unfortunate chance delay him until the sun has disappeared and a big hell booms its warning note he must prepare to camp in the open until the morn brings the gatekeeper back to his duty How Baking is- Done Barring an occasional court pa geant Seoul is singularly free from sights to interest the Seoul is a triumph of cleanliness and altogether- a unique institution Of course there Is an oven Rice flour is dampened and kneaded into dough This mass is spread upon a block and two lusty men to treat it pound ing process with heavy wooden is While this is being done an elderly as sistant dips his hands into water and performs the somewhat hazardous feat of keeping the dough moist by patting ft between the blows of the others The oven crowns the work For the Era In Cloudiands
