The Members of the Corcan Embassy Pass Throngh Omaka Home- ward, In Charge of Mr, Percival Lowell of Tokio University, Japan, A IRtepresentative of fhis Paperinter. viewsthe Whole Pacty. “Where can I finl Mr Percoval Lowelll” inquired arepresentative of Trr Bre, who had been sent across the river yesto-day to take notes on tho Cerean embassy. The inquiry was made at the office of the transfer, and a tall young gontleman near by responded that that was his name. Tho staro that the re- porter gave him, expecting to meet Mr. Lowell, the general passenger agent of the O., B. & Q. in charge of the em- bassy, was met with the oxplanation that it was only a similarity of names which had misled the publie, “Mr., Porceval Lowell is my cousin. said this Mr. Porcival Lowell, *‘he spells Percival with an ‘e, and T spell it with an ‘i,’ that is all the difference. If you desire information in regard to the em bassy, I shall be happy to give it as soon as 1 have checked this lmugu‘in." Mr. Lowell here surrendered checks for thirty-two pieces of baggage and pur- chased seven tickets to' San Francisco for the embassy, of which he is Foreign Sec- retary and Counsellor. He had obtained a knowledge of Japanese at Tokio, and escortod tho embassy to this country, and now aeizos this opportunity to visit, and make observations in Corea, that strange and hitherto UNKNOWN LAND, “Tho mombers of our party,” began take positions under the government?’ asked the reporter. “Well, some are made judges and law- yers, but most of them devete their time to study and investigation. They become educated men and know very little about the practical affaira of lifo and 8o would be ot small use in the executive depart. ment of the government. TRut they are very valuable in other ways." “You have not had a very long visit here?” “No, Ishould like to stay here a long time. 1 want to see more of vour DOMESTIC LIFE, and study your ways. I had an oppor- tunity of seeing o little of this while at Prof. Marsh's, at Cambridge. “What did you conclude?” queried the nowspuper man, “I found much less coremony in the house than we observe at home " re- markod the shrewd littlo Japancse, “and everything seems more easy and natural, The wife seems to have more to do here and does not have as many servants to help her to do it. The time of meals and manner of serving is much the same; our principal meal is at the noon hour.” *Do you find any difficulty in convers- ing with the members of the embassy?” we asked. “‘Yes, considerable, because the Corean tongue is entirely different from the Japanese, indeed THE LANGUAGH, you may say, is radically difforent. The embassadors have picked up a littlo Japanose, but I very often fail to make myself understood.” “Then what do ysu dof” “ will toll you, Wo have refuge in Chinese, the ancient and classical Chi- nese, with which we ara both familiarand which seoms to_possess a root_ aflinity in both tongues. 1 cannot spaak it but T writo it. This pieco of white paper and my traveling pen are our go-betweens.” Just then the runner for tho depot eating house camo through the car and bawled out his annduncement of the fact that the train stops thirty minutes for dinner in Omaha, One of the Coreans smiled at this and asked what the man sai . Mr. Miyaoka rapidly sketched some peculiar wob-like figures down ono side of a piece of the Mr. Lowell, spelling out the names care- fully, “‘are, Hong Yong Sik, the vice- minister; and Cheu Kyon Sok, Ko Yong Chol, Hyon Heung Thek and Woo Li Tang, attaches, and my secrotary, Tauno- jiro Miyaoka, a young and well-educated Japaneso gentleman. Four of the em- bassy were left behind. Yu Kil Chun becamo very much interested in ;the English language and will remain with Professor Morse, at Cambridge, to atudy. Min Yong Ik, the envoy extraordinary and minister plenipotentiary, So Koang Pom, secretary of the embassy, and Pyon Su, will roturn as private citizens in the g | Trenton, one of the American war ves sols going to Japan., Wo proceed direct- 1y to Sou-l, the capital of Corea."” A LOOK AT THEM. The members of ‘the embassy attract open-mouthed wonder wherever they go, and thero is reason for it, because they are a vory peculiar ]muylu and come from a land hitherto but slightly known. They soem to be more stoutly built than either the Chinese or Japanese, but possess some of the facial characteristics of each, Most of thom have beards, thin but long, but this is no sign of age, as they are all men under thirtyyears. They dress in tlowing robes of raw_ silk, bril- liantly colored, and on their heads is the queerest possible kind of hat made of bamboo covered with silk like gauze. It is composed of two pieces, orne u skull cap, which fits tightly to tho head and boars the coral button indicative of rank, and the other a quaker-like hat which overtops all and is tied on under the chin by a broad band. It is worn as a sort of crown, and not for protection, as it is no protection whatever. The Coreans took seats in a Pullman car of the over- land train, ouupyinga drawing-room and one mection. Thoy di-punm{ of their satchels like old travelers and commenced to light their pipes and cigars, of which they are very Iuml. But they NEVER SMOKE OPIUM nor is any opium sold in the country of Coren, 80 the reporter was informed by Mr. Lowell. Noris this country a de- endency of China, as hus been reported, ut an independent nation of vast extont, a pen‘nsula off the northeast coast of China, a nation rich in mineral ores, with 80,000 square miles of land, a population of ten million and standing army of one hundred tnousand men. The permission accorded to an Ameri- can, Mr. Lowell, to study the habits, customs and history of this™ nation is a rt;r}mnu and ho intends to make tho best of it “The treaty was made with Coren for Amcrica by Admiral Shufelt last May,"” explained Mr. Lowell, “and now these ports are opened to the commerco of America, the only country so far which has established relations with Corea, This embassy then, isnot tomakeany treaty, but is simply sent over to manifest the good will of their governmenttowards America, They. exproia themselves as delighted with the reception they have met here and go back with a good usri ion of the country, They do everything seriously and soberly and expross little surprise at anything they see.” A YOUNG JAPANESE, The reporter also had a very enter- taining chat with Mr. Lowell's secretary, Tsunejiro Miyaoka, which name, by the way, being translated means, ‘‘Constant white paper, explained to us that it said, “Omaha is the place to get dinner” and handed it to the Corean, whose face im- mediately brightened, and he commenced to fix his hat as if he understood it. NOT A CHINAMAN. About thirty years ago, not more, Tapan commenced at the same time to entertain relations with other countries and to improve her own condition. The one movement was the result of the other, and they are mow living a new life, a renaissance, If Corea follows the same course of opon handed friendship to for- eign nations it will become as wonderful a place as Japan, because her people are shrevd and intelligent. **We shall in- troduce the electric light into our coun- try,” said one of the embassy at Wash- gton, “‘but we do not want this gus.” That shows that they know a good thing when they seo it. China, on the other hand, has pro- gressed very little, and the Japanese now hold it in contempt as the home of en- tirely inferior people. Mr. Miayoka,who is a true Japanose, said: I do not mind your people staring at me, but there is one thing that is very distreesing: they mistake me for a China- man, and I overhear them wonderi where my queu is. Oh, it is very dis- tressing, for we are not at all like the Chinese, you know.” Bucklen's Arnica Salve.

The Personnel of Miss Lizzie Calder- Wood's Concert Next Thurs: day Night. A Match Game Proposed Between the Lincoln and Omaha Tennis Clubs. Chit-Ohat About Town, and Observa. tions Picked Up Here and There. The Las, Fine Day § Already the falling leaf Is borne at the north wind's will; And, gilding the vale benoah, The withered flower lies still. 'Neath the oak is now no shade; Tu the grove no lovers stay; I amn greeting, ere it fude, The last fine day. Though our lifo with flowers we strew, Yet time will wither them all; Happy those who cull a few Jure the winter shadows fall, Soon faded is youth s blithe cheer But a moment love will stay Our lifo has, like tho year, Its last fine day. Otjovents next week, the concert by Miss Lizzie Calderwood, assisted by her friends in musical circles of this city, is the principal topic. Those who assist are Miss Lizzie Pennoll, contralto; Mr. BEd- ward Roft, baritone; the Philomathean society string quartette; Mr. J. North- rup, tenor; Mr. R. France, basso; Mr, Felix Blankenfield, pianist; quartette from the Omaha Glee Club, composed of F. 8. Smith, first tenor; W. B. Wilkins, second tenor; C. L. Deuel, baritone; H. D. Estabrook, basso; Mr. Frankln S. Smith, musical dirertor. This concert is to occur in Boyd's op- era house next Thursday evening. There is no doubt but that it will be well at- tended. Miss Calderwood needs no in- troduction to an Omaha audience, to whom her sweet voice is so well known. It is just the same voice, only stronger and more flexible, and under that com- plete control which only the severe train- ing it has had in Boston for the last twe years can grant. ““Ah, you put up at the Paxton,” said one gentleman to another at that beauti- ful hotel this morning. “Yes, Ido. I ‘put up’ in more than one sense of the word. A man has to ‘put up’ here or he couldn’t ‘put up’ here—paradoxical as that may seent, Last week the Card-Basket man visited Lincoln and accepted the courtesies of the lawn tennis club there on field day Saturday afternoon. It was also ‘‘re- freshment day” with them, and an invit- ing lunch of tea and cakes was spread under the trees in the capitol yard where the tennis court is situated. The play of the members of the Lincoln club is about the same as ours. especially the gentle- men, but the club differs ina vory es- % | sential item, it is composed, with only one exception, of married people. They express a desire to try a game with the Omaha club some Saturday. and it is {:mhnble that a match will be arranged efore long to take place here. The Lincoln men are very enthusiastic over the sport and play every afternoon. How do people get into “society?” By hook and by crook. And one of the crooks seems to be the medium of the society column in our newspapers. Even 80 humble a servant of society as THE Bee's card basket has been approached by people to drop in their cards among the carda of other people who would not feol flattered by the association of names. Wo cannot rofrain from giving a sample of this sort of thing, a self-written report of an affair in “socioty” which happened not long ago, and which the writer sent in with the expectation that it would ap- pear in this column, The names, of course, are slightly altered: “The surprise party fever which for the passed };w weeks has been raging in city, this terablo plague in its fero- cious onslaught last evening struck the quiet and pleasant home of Mr. Patrick rity, 32d and Emeral streets.

The superhuman efforts of Mr. and Mrs, Moriarity, to gother with deliceous music furnished by that prince of musitions Mr. Thomas O'Rourke, made the ocation one of the most gratiying and amuseing ever wit- nessed by any one present. The writer endeavored to bo facetious, **Ferocious onslaught” is good, But this llf'lu is not #o bad as the stereotyped form which we find on our hook almost every Friday night, “‘Last Tuesday evening was the occasion of a very pleasant sur- prise to Mr. and Mrs. Blink at their res- idence on Side street. The party was heartily welcomed by their charming and accomplished daughter Miss Virginia Blink, The weather was all that could be asked for, and the strains of m could be heard for blocks, and McGilli gan's orchestra are noted for their beau- tiful music.

An Earuest Protest Against the Sale A vlea to Retain It Until It Will Beal- ize More. To the Editor of Tie Brk. Your paper has won the enviable repu- tation of being a defender of the rights and a promoter of the interests of the people, and I trust in your zeal to secure the eloction, te the Supreme bench of the State, in the person of Hon. James W. Savage, & man of spotless integrity, con- ceded abilities and large legal acquire- ments, you will not overlook our home interests. From tho election proclamation issued by our three wise men calling themselves county commissioners, I seo they ask the electors of the county to grant them by their votes, at the ensuing election, the authority to sell the old court house property. It is a wigp provision of the law which leaves the commissioners without any primary legal right to get rid of the property of the county. Permission for them to act in this respect must first be given by the qualified electors of the county; and this consent is gathered by their wishes expressed through the ballot box. It is well, therefore, that timely comsideration be given by all to this re- quest, a3 we must act upon it on_the Gth of next month., his question is of in- terest to every eloctor, for I take it to be a sound political axiom that in this coun- try every citizen, whether taxpaysr or non-taxpayer, is equally interested in those matters affecting the public wel. fare. There are many cogent reasons why this grant of authority to sell this partic- ular piece of public property should not be given to the commissioners and why their request to have it should receive a rattling veto at the hands of the people on the day of election, At present I as- sign only three: The rapid settlement of the the country as well as the city; its unprecedented development in every particular which makes and foreshadows its coming greatness, will SOON, VERY 500N, vequire this property for public use, re- gardless of the new court house. The great growth which we have made in population and wealth during the last few years, exceods the predictions of the wildest visionary —always excepting George Francis Train, This advancing greatness will continue with increased force, subject to temporary drawbacks. This lesson of growth should lead us to look beyond the present—liit the veil covering the future and with ordinary foresight prepare for the public needs as they are certain to come upon us. More courts and reom to hold them in will shortly be required. These are merely incidents to thickly sottled portions of the country doing an exteusive business.

It can bo held at trifling cost. It is not subject to taxa- tion. Within a very brief time, with a | continuance of our present prosperity, it | will be worth §100,000. The public may | as well receive the benelit of this en- hanced value as private parties towhom it will besold. If we sell to-day we shall buy back to-morrow this or other proper- ty, thus paying to the . purchases for merely holding it for us, tho incrensed | valuation; all of which would be ours ‘‘without money and without price” by acting like mensible, prudent men and keeping it. 1t must not be sold and the proceeds be squandered, These views aro based upon grounds that this pro- perty solely belongs to the county. Third—To the people of Omaha thero exists a particular and forcible reason why the commissioners shculd not be permitted to dispose of the ‘‘old court house site.” 'This is: They have an ewn- ership in it distinct from that which is shared by citizens residing beyond the limits of the city. These property rights the city can assert again t the county. All claims and intereats which the coun- ty can set up to this property were de- rived from the city. Theseintorests were obtained in order to use the grounds for a publie object, tohold them, in common with the city, for public offices and the transaction of other public business. ‘When the county ceases to use it for these purposes it reverts to the city, and the city becomen re-invested with all its orig inal proprietary rights. As the court house was erected before I came to Omaha I have no personal knowledge whether the city aided in its its constructisn, This, however, I do know, that for many years the city has claimed to be jointly “interested in the ownership of this court house site and has mggptained that claim by occupancy of a par? of it. Under such circumstan- ces it would be ill-advised for a resident of Omaha to assist in conferring authori- ty upon the ccmmissioners to sell the same. Orp RESIDENT.
