to the fact that Our sincerity does not receive the appreciation of Heaven. When We think of the people's suffering, We cannot sleep peace,"

Addressed thus, the Prime Minister

replied that it was truly regrettable, that the drought was causing distress to the farmers, and that ho and his collignon were deeply rateful to His Majesty for taking the welfare of the people so much to beart.

The Emperor then enquired of the Minister of Home Alairs wint was tho condition of the people in the interior. Mr Pak replied that owing to the scarcity of mair the people in the interior were very much disturbed in wind. His Majesty next turned to the Minister of Agriculture, Commerce and Industry, and questioned him as to the condition of agriculture. In ruply Mr Cho s'ated that it was very

went down to Fusan he saw on his way to

-the districts near the capital. "

His Majesty showed himself to be greatly concerned to her all this and said: "When Our people are suffering so much, how can We alone take Our usual abundance of food?"

The Emperor then summoned Mr Min Pyok-nok, Minister of the Imperial House- bold, before him, and commanded him to diminish the number of dishes on the Imperial table, so that he might show his anxiety and fear. The Ministers retired from the Imperial presence greatly im- prossed.

Our Seoul contemporary remarks: Io may be mentioned that during the night of Sunday Seoul experienced an abundant rainfall accompanied by thunder. No doubt this will be interpreted by the Koreans as a responsa by Heaven to the Emperor's self-denial.
