unknown to many readers forvin 1895 his troubles were so great that he was in hiding and sought the good offices of the late Col John A Cockerill to assist him in his flight from Corea In his ac- ¬

Kung Eui Wha rising in favor she conceived a great hatred for him She saw that this youth inight be- ¬ come a serious rival to her own son knowing something of the whirling politics in Corea She caused his mother to be killed and his brother and sister to be put out of the way The young prince was protected by his father and his grandfather the Tai Wai Kun The colonel then described a series of intrigues by which the queen was enabled to get the young man into disfavor all around Finally the con- ¬ dition was so bad that his friends pre ¬ pared to get him out of the country They went to

questions have been offered by one of our Eng ¬ lish contemporaries and which are rarely touched upon except from the standpoint of statisti Vcians They are How much coin is there in circulation and what is the money appetite of different parts of the world Answering the first question the writer states that of the three most valuable mediums gold silver and paper there is over 12000000000 in circulation divided as follows Gold 3775000000 silver 3975 4400000000 000000 paper Copper coins are not taken into con- ¬ sideration The comparison of the gold coin held in different nations is shown by a table which places France in the first place the United Kingdom sec ¬ ond and the United States third In silver coin India holds first place France second and the United States third with England a poor fifth This answers the second question In 20 years the specie reserve in the hanks of the world has trebled while the paper issue has only risen 33 per ceni The ratio of paper money in general use in 1870 was 38 per cent and in 1890 79 per cent It also ap- ¬ pears that the amount of capital employed in banking has almost dou ¬ bled since 1870 The checks paid in New York and London in ono

life and occupied with motion in so many di- ¬ rections it is not amiss to ask science to remove from its calculations as wide a difference as that between 20 000000 and 300000000 A school boy with such a discrepancy on his slate would certainly be asked toitry it again and might be the object of some pungent remarks from his pre- ¬ ceptor Within the past year tho an- ¬ cient history of man as a writing animal hasbeen moved back several thou ¬ sand years and he must have lived a long timo before that to have gained a fixed knowledge of graphic art Lord Kelvin speaks with confidence of the time before the birth of man on this sphere when there was a constant succession of violent physical changes on the earths surface upheavals of its crust with storms floods and sud ¬ den changes of climate ranging from glacial to fiery Perhaps it is all so But science frequently adjusts itself to new facts and a good deal of its timo is occupied in sweeping out old theories To the casual observer the earth re- ¬ veals no signs of decrepitude The human race in Europe and America at least is apparently in its youth and pressing on with ardor to higher forms ot civilization Seed time and
