No small amount of thin improve went has been due to Ir. Oh w ho baa been with u since HcptcinU'r, aud It is a genuine pleaMire to make mention of his eflu iency and faithfulueM and williugneiw to do anything in his power at any time. Only thoae who have been at the station and have seen what his presence baa meant to our work there can realize our iudebtexlncMs to him. inclining a well paying aud inline otial position offered him by the government, to take up work with our Mission he entered into it as aoon aa he reached the atatlon with great zeal, and showed from the start that he had made full use of the opportunitim that had been given hi in. The impres aion thua given at the start has grown until now our only wonder is how we ever got along without! him. But we feel that his usefulness baa been far from being confined to the medical work, for he baa been a link between the foreigners and Korean that baa bound them closer than before. Dr. Oh was in no way weaned from his home and people by bis stay in America, but baa come back to thciu with the great desire to help and lictter them, and, looked up to and re spected as be la by all, he is a pow er for good among them. And so we feel that our Mission and the Korean people are greatly indebt ed to Dr. Alexander for bis experi ment, but we think that the un qualified success has becu due more to the man be selected than to the foreign education, though the lat ter undoubtedly broadened him and fitted him for far Utter work than he could possibly have done without it The medical work naturally falls into, and will be discussed under the three heads of dispensary, bus pital and class work. I. Dispensary. At the daily clinic is where the crowds are seen and all sorts of men and women are met up w-it li. (Situated as we are in the country, our outside calls are comparatively few, aud by far tie largest part of our work is at the disieusaiy. The doors are thrown oen about Ni.'IO every morning except 8undaya, and aa soon aa tho patients begin to come iu the hospital evangelist meete tbem, talks to them alsxit the (lospel and sella them books. One encouraging feature has been tbe large number of books that hits been sold in this way during the year. It is very rare that a new patient does not take away one or more books. Clinic proper usually start about 9:.10. As they are called for by the doctonLthfi evangelist sends in the paUatrtB in the order iu which they vAnie. They would love to all be admitted at once, and each one watch the other while he is being treated, but at tbe risk of being called unaccommodating we have not allowed that.

The work in the hospital is of course uiuih more satisfactory, though it is most diehearteiiing at timea wheu the miple insist oo leaving ts fore it la (aiesible to ob tain the bent results. The great majority of the hospi tal casea have been surgical aud most of them operative aa is sho by our statistic! of IIS patients and l-'t'.' os'rations. However, as frequently more than one otienttion was performed ou one patient this docs not mean that only lii patients esraieil the knife. the oiMTutioiis nave covered a wide field of surgery, for we are iu no ways siiecialints. Abdominal rases, hernias, cataracts, amputa tions both great and small, necroses of hone, skin grafting, hare lips and other plastic work, ingrowing loe nails and various other troubles have lieen taken as they came and attended to aa best we could and with fairly satisfactory results. It seems rather remarkable that we have not had a rate of pneu nioniit or typhoid fever or any oth er acute medical trouble admitted during the year. This may m ex plained poewilily from the fact that the Koreans usually wait till a pa t ieii t has lieen sick some days be fore consulting a doctor, and in many of the acute diseases the pa tient either succumbs or recovers before it is considered worth while to go for treatment. The history of one or two case may lie interesting. One man was mistaken by Japa nese soldiers for a reliel or ut least a confrere of the reU'ls. He was called out of his room and although denying the charge he was shot by one of the soldiers, the bullet pass ing iu aud out bctwecu the abdom inal muscle, but fortunately not penet rating the abdominal cavity. He then decided that discretion was the better part of valor, as he was both unarmed aud outuuiulier ed, and crawled under the porch to hide, but the soldiers fired at him there and their marksmanship is attested by the fact that live out of the aix shots fired took effect. Both bones of the left forearm were shattered to fragments, and aerious llesh wounds were iullicted iu the leg, hip, side, forearm and arm. In spite of the fact that the tract of each bullet was miserably infect ed the man made a good recovery, and wheu last seen a few months ago was iu good health and spirits and had fairly good use of his arm. One Sunday afternoon a young man was brought ill who presentinl a ghastly sight. 1I had seventeen cuts on bis head, face and neck ranging from three to twelve inches iu length. The most serious of all extended entirely across the neck from ear to ear, laying the wind pipe w ide open, lie had lieeu a victim of rohlient who had entered hia house a few nights Wore. Though be hail offered no resist ance they had cut him np in this barbarous manner to intimidate the other members of the household, and then proceeded to hunt for money, of which they found fifty cents. The man was admitted to the hospitat and made a splendid recovery. When his wounds were almost entirely healed aud he was expecting to leave in a few days for home be asked iMirmission one morning to go iuto town to Bee a man on business. This was grant ed and having borrowed some money from the hospital orderly he left and that was tho last we have aeen or heard of him. As he owed the hospital nearly teu yen and the orderly about a yen and a half It looks as if he could give the robbers points on bow to get money out of people. Another man with extensive tu berculosis of the ankle came with a pitiful history. Ilia home w as In Kyung Hang province about Hit) or :UK) miles from here. He hailaaveu up some money and started with it to see the foreign doctor at Taiku which was not very far from his borne. He met up with robliera who kindly llghteued him of bis money, but in spite of that he con tinned hia crawl (he could not walk) to Taiku. lie found thehoa pital closed and was about to give up hope when, by chance, be met up with man who bad been oper ated on at Kunaan last summer and who advised him to come here. It took him four months to make the trip, but he finally reached here a forlorn looking specimen. Ke section failed to relieve bint and we had to amputate, but he went out happy with a peg leg, tindia turbed by the thought of begging his way back over the long journey home. During tbe year 149 patients were admitted and their average stay in the hospital was 25 days each. This we (eel has been our best opportunity for evangelistic work, for while a greater u a ruber are reached at the dispensary, those in the hospital bear the gospel daily and read or hear read mauy tract and christian books. We are most fortunate in having helpers of real christian worth who aeew to take a personal interest in the welfare of the patiebt aud the j hospital. i It U i -it cresting to record that the first palicut a I mil ted to the J hospital was rwvived iuto the fuil couimuuion of tbe rhun-h a few ; months ago. She was brought in in a serious condition aud required a severe oiM-nttion which n.niHed satisfactory. At the tune of her adiuiasiuu, thou;h she lived only alHiut three uiilea from here, she knew notuiug of the (ior.el, but she Iwrauie iulerettted while here aud attended church regularly af ter leaving. Another woman, a member of the family at whose house Dr. For sythe was injured, aud whose son had since la-come a christian, but who had herself held out steadfast ly against christiauity, came iu for cataract operatiuu. Wheu talking to her son after the cataract was extracted, she said that while lis (cuing to the prayer which had hceu offered as usual before the opcratiou she decided that theliod who was able to hear aud help iu such a wonderful way should tie her uod too. III. Medical Class. licfore Dr. t Hi's arrival but little theoretical teaching had lieeu at tempted, though all three of the dispensary helper were most anx ious to take up the study of uiedi cine, but after Dr. Oh came rcgu lar daily classes were held with these students. Word was circu lated that we would start a medi cal class after the New Year holi- lay, and we were agreeably aur prised when eleven students eight new presented themselves at that time. Classes were held daily ex cept Saturday aud Nundiiy for two hours in the afternoon, the subjects taken up lieing Anatomy, licims try, Materia Medica aud Knglish. Luck of satisfactory text Itooks in the vernacular necessitated our do ing our own translation, o that considerably more time was aiictit iu preparation than in actual class work. The work of the students was very gratifying, t at of the eleven who started, one dropped out in a few weeks, another withdrew just before the session closed, leaving nine to stand the linn! examination. Of those nine, aeveu passed suc cessfully, and as the required grade was .so per ceut. we feel that the showing was quite creditable. A tuition fin of 1 ven iicr month was paid by each student. The prosiiecta aro good for a lar ger class next year, mid we cannot but feci that this part of the medi cal work is bright with promise for great good to the Koreans. Had a Close Call.

Miss Peart Tucker, Slateca Years INJ, Overpowered by a Negro, Who Accomplishes hi lurpasc. Suspect Arretted, Large Crowd (lathers, and Threats ol Lynch ing Lrccly Made .Negro Spirit ed Away. (' I mp, The most horrible crime that has U-en committed iu t lie county iuee the outrage and murder uf the IS year old daughter of Mr. S. J. Hart sell, in No. I to iisliipst-ver.il years ago, was committed last Tuesday afternoon about o'clock, wheu I Miss I'earl Tucker, aged Hi year, the daughter of Mr. Daniel K. Tuck er, who lives at Kairview, was out raged by a negro brute. The crime was committed in the corporate limits, within .p00 yards uf the young lady's home. She was alone iu the field near the house picking cotton when a iiearro came to her and said very politely that Mr. J. K. Dayvault, whose slaughter cn was uearby and for whom her father worked, had sent him over after a hammer which had, he said, la-en left on the other side of the field by her father the day In-fore. Me asked her to go to the place and get the hammer for him. Cnsuspeetingly the girl went with him, but w hen they got to the place the hammer was not found. The negro then said to her: "I do not want any hammer; it is you I want." He then grablied the defenceless girl by the throat and threw her to the ground. He drew a pistol from his pocket and fired a shot, saying he would kill her if she made any out cry. He then picked Miss Tucker up in his arms and carried her alsnit fifty feet to a secluded place where, despite her struggles, lie outraged her. He tlieu told herb's name was Henry Faggart, aud left, going iu the direction of Hightown. M iss Tucker started for her home, but fainted on the way. How long she was unconscious she docs not kuow, but it was nearly -I o'clock wheu she reached home. Nhe ut once told her mother the distress ing circumstances, and the latter immediately telephoned for the po lice and a physician. Chief linger at once went with his force to look for the scoundrel. The place where the affair occurred was visited, and the ground was all torn up, show ing that a sen Die bad taken place, liy this time several hundred pco pie had collected eager to find the tinned said the negro who commit ted the deed was the same one who had passed there the day liefore with two dogs. Her mother remem bered this man as Will Graham, and the officers and posse went at once to the home of the boy's fath er, Cuto (jraham, where NVill Gra ham was found changing his shoes. He had beggar-lice all ovor his pants, and when asked where his cap was (the girl having said that he wore a small cap) he said he did not have any cap, but on examina tion a cap said to belong to him was found iu another room. Graham was then taken licfore Miss Tucker for identification. Ow ing to her excited state at the time of tho outrage (die was unable to say whether or not be was the guilty man. Graham was of a gin ger cake color, whereas the rapist, according to Miss Tucker, was black. Graham was brought to towu in an automobile by Chief roger. He was at first taken to the mayor's cilice in the city hall and questioned by the officers and by Police Justice Puryear. After the examination they felt sure he was not the right man, and so an nounced to the crowd of several hundred people from the city ball steps. Many in the crowd then left, and the officers hustled the ne gro into the automobile of Mr. J. W. Cannon, Jr., and took biiu to Salisbury. This was about six o'clock. After this, the newa hav ing gone out through the town, a crowd of over a thousand people itssenibled on the streets, aud it seemed to lw the general opinion that the right man was in custody. Hut the officers cleverly eluded the crowd aud got their man safely away. The crowd at first thought Gnt ham had been taken to the jail here, but Sheriff Harria let a com mittee go through the .(ail to see that he was not there. Tho crowd then dispersed. There were many miitteriuga of lynching, but all is quiet now. A Jeweler's Experience. C. R.
