army i this ahe refused to do. Japan,
iu return, said she had come to Kor
ea to reform, regenerate and re
organize her, and asked China to co
operate in this work. This was ig
nored by China and really consider
ed an irjHult. J aVian proceeded with
lier work of reformation. Upon this
China began sending troops to Ko
ren.
THE COarLICT BEGINS.
Tho firnt great movement of the
conflict was tho sinking of the Kow-
nhing, an English trancport in the
wervico of the Chinese, carrying
troops to Korea. Aa she was np.
nroachintf the Korean port, with
some lliM) troops on board, three
Japanese men-of-war suddenly came
before her and signaled her to stop,
This she did. A boat was sent out
by one of the Japanese men of-war
to get the particulars of tho trans
port. Having learned that the trans
port was full of Chinese Boldiers,
she immediately ordered her to sur-
render, follow the Japanese men-of-
war or take the consequences. Tho
Chinese declared that they would
all die beforo they would surrender
Tho Japanese then told the for.
cigners. But the Chinese said they
would shoot tho first man who at.
tempted to lea ve the ship. A J apan
ese man-of-war immediately dis
charged a torpedo and opened a
iimiKiHhlu on the transport. In a
few minutes she began to sink wit h
til nn biinnl. The captain, who is
Knglish, and two other foreigners
escaped by swimming, and then be
ing picked up. It is said that the
.Tiiimni'Ho fired on the men in tho
water. If they did, it will add much
to tho crime, and was contrary to
tho rules of civilized (t) warfare.
This was done before war was dc
dared. Upon tho sinking of the
Kowshing. China declared war, and
the Jupani'HO did likewise.
THE JAI'ASEHE VICTOBIOVS,
The Japanese have been victorious
thus far. They have capt ured Asan
which was held by tho Chinese, also
Seoul, the capital, and are in pos
session of many other points in
Korea. A great battle is expected
daily. The Japanese men-of-war are
in possession of Korean waters ami
seem to be master of the situation.

TIIK t'AI'SE OK THE WAR.
For nuiiiy years Chiua has held a
suzerainty over Korea. In ntune
Korea was independent ; iu fact, she
was not. Korea, lying between
China and Japan, it is of tho great
est importance to Japan that Korea
bo kept a free country. If China
should take her it would bring China
uncomfortably closo to Japan. In
the year 1M there was some dilli
etilty between these two countries
over Korea, which resulted in a new
treaty being made. This treaty of
1hs5 stated that neither power was
to send troops to Korea without
first informing the other of their in
tentions. There has been dissatisfaction
among the people of Korea for some
years. The government itself, has
been very bad. The people are kept
in great poverty, there being no in
ftmtive to produce wealth, as it
would bo taken at once through tax
ation. Last Spring things became
unbearable, and i rebellion was tho
result. China was called to put
down the people, as the Korean gov
1 1 1 1 A
eminent was not nine to tio so.
China responded at once without
notifying Japan, thus breaking her
treaty ot lWi. This is tho cause or
pretest, for Japan has been wanting
to light China for some time. She
l:ns two reasons, yes three: First
her own people arc greatly disKatis
lied and a rebellion has been fearet
for some tune. A foreign war is tho
suit st way of unifying her own peo
pie. M-comi, unmi is an old enemy
mid Japan wishes to show Chiua Ik
strength and if possible bring them
to dust before her. Third, Japan
hud just t iiken her place among civ
ilized nations and is now on dress
purado beforo tho world. Sho is
anxious that till tho world may know
of tho kingdom of "ureat Japan."
As soon as tho news reached Japan
that China hint sent troops to Korea
sho answered by seudiug somo 4, 000
troops at once, to protect her people
iu Korea aud her interests there
China asked Japan to withdraw her

few days ago tue writer saw a
company of little boys and girls.rantr-
ing from the ages of 6 to 12 years,
nod up, and one was drilling them.
ho Japanese troops are mobile,
hey have prepared the railroads bo
that they can transport a great many
troops in a very short space of time.
They are ulso prepared to lay new-
tracks if necessary. There is only
one thing against Japan : That is
her resources, both in means and
men. If the war continues her re
sources must run out. Their pre
sent policy is to strike fast and bring
the war to a close soon. Of course
f the Japanese take Fekin they will
s ti
nave uumuiea t.uina.
Chinu is not so well prepared for
war. In the nrst place sue is not, so
homogeneous as Japan. They are
very slow in their movements. The
. A.
provinces are almost line separate
kingdoms. The array is poorly dru-
ed and just as poorly armed. Then
Chinese will not obey orders. Yet
they have the German stubbornness
and would always rather die than
surrender. Having no railroads, it
takes a long time to collect the army
together or move them when collec
ted. The Chinese navy is better
than her army and compares very
avorably with that of the Japanese.
INTERNATIONAL COMPLICATIONS.
No one can predict anything post
tivelv in regard to the outcome of
this war. Some movements which
have been made make us apprehen
sive. Engluud has eight men-of-war
on tho Korean waters, llussia has
answered with the same number.
Franco and Germany are represent
ed, llussiu and England are not
friends. Franco and Germany are
enemies. It is stated on good au
thority that llussia intends to take
one of tho ports of Korea, for at
present they have no Eastern port
which is open tho year around. It
is very necessary for her to have
such a port, ns well as a good outlet
for her Siberian railroad. Whether
tho other nations will interfere is to
bo seen. "The spirit of war is abroad
in the land. It would not take much
fire from the East to start the war
flame in Europe. All students of
