They were always present bearing gifts \for the Minister and his family and a special deputation from his Majesty, the Em- peror, was always conspicuous. To- day’s departure was in marked con- trast and is indicative of the ebb of Russian influence at the Korean Court. | KOREANS ARE OVERAWED. The effect upon his Majesty and the higher Korean official circles of the Russian naval reverses of the last few days and the prompt observance of the demand of the Japanese Minister, M. Hayashi, for the withdrawal of M. Pav- lov and his countrymen from the Ko- rean capital can hardly be overestl- mated. The Korean officlals who are known to be of the Russian party at the capital, and who have been work- ing with M. Paviov for the further- ance of his plans regarding the future of Korea, are hiding in fear and trem- [bling. Some have fled from the city and others dare not show themselves ar of Japanese reprisals, now that they hold the balance of power. There were no visible signs of dis- among the Russian party as but a general air of sadness hung over it and the friends who had come to say good-by. The farewells were short and hurriedly spoken, as though all were anxious to have an unpleasant though unavold- task quickly over with. And the tion that was uppermost in the of all was, When and under what ausy s will the departing ones return? The impossible has occurred. The representative of one power has or- dered the representative of another power to leave, with all his country- men, from the capital of an independ- ent neutral country, one over which the powers in question is v supposed to possess an ol. With the withdrawal to-day the Russian flag disappeared from Korean sofl, and turn will be one of the Important milestones in Oriental history. CHANGES. s within six days from the date pan announced that she would i her own course without further sultation with Russia if that coun- its r try continued her policy of refusing to withdraw from Manchuria and of de- clining to consider the claims advanced pan concerning Korea. Buta few go the influence of the Russian i r was all powerful at the Rus- sian court, and when his Japanese col- ormed that his Majesty was ier Queen of Korea, on October §, 1895, the Emperor of Korea, his govern- ment and the Korean people generally have mistrusted the Japanese, and his placed reliance on the offered him by Russia. enly a body of troops arrived at and the Japanese Minister, with- deigning to consult the trembling monarch, suggests that Korea need advice nor assistance m Russia any longer, and her Min- has no other choice than to obey the Emperor of Korea forgiveness and offering es not is but whether assert her power with the Korean gov- ernment or not, Kprea’s days of com- rlete independence have been number- ed and the full number counted. s good for Korea that it is so, for not exist on the face of the earth. evertheless it will be a work of time care and patience to convince the peo- ple that their rulers will no longer be able to “squeeze” them and that they may develop prosperity by their own industry. QUESTION OF REFUGEES. One of the last official acts of the departing Russian Minister was to re- quest the aid of the American Min- ister in removing the Russian refugees | from Tuesday’s naval engagement at Chemulpo, now on board the British, French and Italian cruisers, to some neutral country, where they can remain until the war is terminated, and thus avoid the humiliation of be- | ing held prisoners in Japan, and the American Minister, after consulting with his Japanese confrere, has wired | his Government for instructions. The situation contained in this ques- tion is, indeed, one involving delicate diplomacy. not prisoners of war, at least, not yet. After scuttling their ships in the har- bor of a neutral country they, escaped the vessels of other neutral coun- tries. The sea battle that led to their defeat and consequent destruction of their ships was commenced in neutral waters and the protests of the nations who have accepted the refugees were ignored. 1t is claimed that the British officer | who was sent with the joint protest to the flagship Mikasa of the Japanese fleet failed by a few minutes to reach the Japanese admiral before the unex- pected early movement of the Rus- sian vessels precipitated firing. All circumstances considered, it is . be- lieved that Japan will agree to the re- moval of the unfortunate Russian refugees to a neutral port, under dis- tinct assurances that they will not be permitted to agaim take up arms during the present conflict. The French cruiser Pascal, that car- ries M. Pavlov and his party from Korea, will go to Chefu as soon as per- mission is obtained to pass through the Japanese fleet, From Chefu to Port Arthur it is but | eighty miles, but just now those eighty | miles are important ones, as they con- | tain a large Japanese fleét engaged in attacking Port Arthur, the Gibraltar of Asia. and it is difficult to say when | M. Paviov will reach Port Arthur and be able to report to Viceroy Alexieff A | the full extent of Russia’s reverses in hook on the Cauvse and Cure of | Korea that have occurred in such an the Pyramid | incredibly short space of time.

One can imagine the consternation that has come over the Korean court in witnessing the official degradation of the representative of the mighty Czar of all the Russias. During the troubles following the war between China and Japan, in which unhappy Korea was again the £cene of action, the Korean King fled to the Russian legation for personai safety and the expostulation of the! Japanese Minister avalled nothing. The ! King remained with his Russian friends for nearly eighteen months and ' could only be seen within the walls of the Russian legation until the clamor- ing of his own people induced him to return to his palaee. { Now his Majesty, who has since be- ' come an Bmperor, is in despair,' for he has no confidence in the promises of Japan, and his only hope lies in the untimate victory of Russia, in whose vast power he had placed all his re- liance, B SR JOSE TO HAVE VOTING MACHINES RERERERRER RERRE RRRER ERRRERRER RRERE RRERRREREY RRRRE RRREY ZERRR RRRREERRER RERRE REREY, RERRE RRRRRRRREY RRRER RRRRE RRRRY RRRRR SAN Fifteen United States Standard In- | struments Wiil Be Used in Fall Klection.

Han- num, an engineer on the Texas Central R. R., running out of Ennis. Mr. Hannum's home ie at 1328 Union street in this city. During one of his visits home last year he told of a serious case of Bright's Disease living a little out of Ennis and that he went to seée the patient to tell him that they were curing it in California. He falled to in- terest him. On his visit to this city last fall Mr. Han- num was not extra well and procured a bottle of Fulton's Compound to have with him In | case of an emergency. Not feeling the need ot it on his return to Ennls, he gave it to the pa- tlent mentioned above. ‘Even then he would not take it, feeling certain that nothing could be done for him. Mr. Hannum now sends back home the de- tafls of the interesting denouement® The pa- | tient fipally got o badly off that his life | despaired of, and the end was looked for dally. He could not get his breath and was In the smothering condition that comes toward the last and had to be propped up in bed with pil- lows in order to breathe. His condition be- came so extreme that his physician was unable to aid him or offer any hope, and he then re- sorted to the bottle left by Mr. Hannum. In a short time he was resting and breathing easler, and he continued to improve till at last account he had made such fine progress that he drove to the city himself to get further supplies of the Compound, his only concern being that there might be none of it at hand, As a matter of fact there was none in Ennis and they had to send to Fort Worth for it. This seeming miracle created great intere: and the physician in the case, who was an I terested observer, told Mr. Hannum he would hereafter use the Compound in his practice. Mrs. Hannum gave us these facts, and they can be relied upon.

My Joscphine KING MOURNS AT THE GRAVE Splendor of Cambridge’ Funeral Equaled Only by| That of the “Iron Duke” —_—— LONDON, March 22.—The Duke of Cambridge was buried to-day after a funeral such as has been accorded to no English soldier since the death of the Duke of Wellington. King Ed- ward, Queen Alexandra and nearly all the members of the royal family, rep- resentatives of foreign monarchs, a majority of the nobility, the diplo- matic corps and representative British subjects of all walks in life attended the impressive national service at ‘Westminster Abbey. Thereafter the body of the “Old Duke,” as he was affectionately known to the people, was taken to Kensal Green Cemetery and buried beside that of his wife. Thousands of troops marched through and lined the streets and dense crowds watched the spec- tacle, which in military magnificence rivaled the funeral of Queen Victoria. The King, wearing a fleld marshal's uniform, and the Queen, in the deep- est mourning, drove from Buckingham Palace to the abbey shortly before 11 o’clock. The crowds uncovered in silence and the troops reversed arms on their arrival. The abbey was then packed with diplomats, privy council- ors and army officers, all in gorgeous uniforms. EDWARD CHIEF MOURNER. The King walked up the aisle, which was lined by grenadiers, their busbies bent low over the reversed arms, and took his place, as chief mourner, at the head of the coffin. The Prince of ‘Wales, the Duke of Connaught and the other Princes stood behind his Ma- Jesty. Prince Albrecht of Prussia repre- sented Emperor William, while from the United States Embassador Choate and the military attache, Major Bea- con, were present. Among the prin- cipal mourners were Admiral and Col- onel Fitzgeorge, the late Duke's son. On either side of the coffin stood five field marshals — Wolseley, Haines, Roberts, Norman and Good, who, with a score of famous British gen- erals, acted as pallbearers. In the cor- ‘ner of the abbey stood a number of veterans who had fought with the Duke of Cambridge in the Crimea. Every branch of the army and the volunteers was represented. FAMOUS DIRGE SOUNDS. The dean of Westminster read the | service, and a dirge which had not been played since the funeral of Queen Mary 1L echoed through the abbey. The Norroy King of Arms (Willlam Henry Weldon) hoarsely proclaimed the full titles of the dead man, eight Grenadiers lifted the coffin and the King walked behind it, followed by the officers in crimson and gold uniforms. In the bright sunshine the thou- sands of people outside the abbey watched the coffin being placed on the guncarriage.

Ahead of the gun- carriage was an array of British troops seldom seen in the streets of London. Life Guards, Lancers, Grenadiers, Hussars, Dragoons and Highlanders, with their bands, marched through a lane of brilllant color formed by the infantry along the route. Behind these the spectators formed a con- tinuous black background. Cuirasseurs, plumesy swords and lances sparkled in the sun that had been so seldom seen of late by the inhabitants of the me- tropolis. ? Nearly two and a half hours elapsed before the cortege reached the ceme- tery, from which the public had been excluded. The King and others stood by the graveside, while a squad of Grenadiers fired three volleys for their old field marshal and the funeral came to an end. SANTA CLARA WILL .
