J APAN’S GREAT FAIR.
THE BIG EXPOSITION NOW BEING
HELD AT THE NATIONAL CAPITAL.
It Is to Be 3 Sort of Millennial Celebra-
tion This Year—Useful Hints to Intend-
ing Visitors to the Land of the Rising
Sun.
As all eyes are now focused on Ja-
pan it may interest such as may be con-
templating a visit to the land of ancient
and modern marvel to know that no
more opportune time can be selected
than the coming early summer.
The visitor may then have an oppor-
tunity of seeing the conquerors of China
returning with their laurels, and they
will surely get the worth of their mon-
ey out of the great Kioto exposition,
which opened on April 1 and will con-
tinue for three months.
Under a decree anational fair is held
in Japan every four years. This year it
is to be held in Kioto, the ancient cap-
ital and in itself the most thorough of
Japanese exhibits.
The exposition is to be supplemented
by a sort of millennial celebration. To
be exact, the eleventh hundred anniver-
sary of the accession of the present dy-
nasty is to be marked by a military ex-
hibit, fetes, carnivals, etc., to which
zest will be given by the triumph of
arms in China.
The exposition proper will epitomize
the best of things Japanese. In the
matter of art this show is expected to
eclipse all previous records.
Kioto is a city of temples, both Bud-
dhist and Shinto, so that one may see all
that is worth seeing in Japan, from
ceramics to Geisha girls.
The buildings for the great fair are
said to be splendid specimens of Japa-
nese architecture, and the hotels of the
ancient city are warranted to be ample
for the care of all foreign visitors.
Kioto, being the very heart and soul
of old Japan, is regarded as the most
interesting and fascinating city in the
empire. The Higashi Hangwanji tem-
ple is the largest in Japan. It covers
more than 52,000 square feet.
The Chionin temple has a bronze bell
18 feet high, which is worth traveling
some distance to hear and see. Then
there are the temples Dai Butsu and
Kiemidzu of the Buddhists and the
great Shinto shrine of Gion, all worth
seeing.
All Japan will be raked for antique
arms and armor for the military exhib-
it. The bazaars will be countless, and
those who are collecting Japanese art
and curios will find Kioto this summer
a veritable paradise. It has been for
ages a recognized art center.—Colonel
John A. Cockerill in New York Herald.
Women "Sandwich Men.”
Women “sandwich men” are an in-
novation. The walking sign line on
Twenty-third street, New York, has
two women parading side by side. each
peculiarly garbed and each bearing the
regulation signboard, one bearing the
legend, “I use polish,” the other silent-
ly remarking, “I use an imitation.”
The garments of the first mentioned
were trimmed with burnished metal
bangles, while the fringe on the latter’s
attire was dingy and corroded. They
were attired very much like Salvation
Army lasses, except that their faces
were heavily veiled. The coming wom-
an is evidently going to stop at nothing
to earn an honest living—Chicago
Times-Herald.
Maurice Jokai on Peace.
Maurice Jokai, the Hungarian nov-
elist, has refused _the presidency of the
Hungarian branch of the Peace society.
He says: “I will deceive no one. I am
prepared, if the powers of Europe agree
to disarm, to pay three times the taxes
I have paid up to the present. I will
devote all my faculties to the great
cause, but if my fatherland, my free-
dom, my nation, my king, are attacked
by any one then I knou1 no theories. I
Will take my gray hes I where it must
fall in the noble cause. ”—Philadelphia
Telegraph.
The Typewriter Industry.
From the patent oflice at Washington
comes the report that in the 11 years
since the typewriting machine was first
put on the market the sales have
amounted to nearly $30,000, 000. This
means an enormous industry not only
chines, but in their manipulation in the
oflices where they are used—New York
Post.
An Unknown Quantity.
Some visionary fellow in Chicago is
talking about establishing a home for
unmarried women over‘40 years of age.
We should like to know where he will
find the women to occupy it. We never
met with any such. —Wisecnsin State
Journal.
Shot For a Bed Cover.
A Chicago man shot his bedfellow to
death because the latter attempted to
pull too much of the cover. Attorneys
for the defense will doubtless attempt
to show that the landlord is responsible
for the crime—Galveston News.
Spain Should Examine Her Officers.
The Spanish navy might hold an ex-
amination among its ofiicers as to my-
opia and color blindness, so as to in-
sure a proper discrimination among for-
eign flags—Washington Star.

Japan can scare the world by demand-
ing an indemnity in gold and insisting
on the actual coin. Gold grabbing is
the disease of the century.—St. Louis

in 1896 may be the Monroe doctrine. —

STORIES OF 'THE DAY.
' now a Book Agent Took Down Ex-Con-
greasman .
The Ohio Valley News relates what
it vouches for as a true story about ex-
Congressman Bryan of Nebraska. Ac.
cording to the story, a book agent in-
duced Mr. Bryan to buy a copy of the
“Century Cyclopedia of Names’ ’ by tell-
ing him that the book contained the
name and biography of every man, liv-
ing or dead, who had ever made a mark-
ed impression upon the afiairs of the
world. A few days after the book was
delivered Bryan'sent for the book agent
and said to him, “You sold me that
book under false pretenses. ” “I beg
pardon, but you are mistaken, ” replied
the suave book agent. Mr. Bryan began
to lose his temper and snapped out,
“Didn’t you tell me that the book con-
tained the name and biography of every
man, living or dead, who had made an
impression upon the world’s affairs?”
“Yes, sir, and it does. ” “It does noth-
ing of the sort. My name isn’t in it. ”
“Why should it be?” retorted the book
agent.
A Gambler’s Contribution.
A correspondent sent the following to
the New York Tribune: A number of
gentlemen at a southern hotel were play-
ing a little game of poker. One of the
party cleaned the others all out, win-
ning $250. At this stage a lady entered
and madea touching appeal in behalf of
a- church. After listening attentively for
a time the successful man handed her
the roll of $250 and remarked refiect-‘
ively: .
“God moves in a mysterious way
His wonders to perform.”
If Cowper saw the transaction frOl
above, he must have smiled.
THURBER TELLS STORIES.
The President Liked Them So Much That
They Were Spoken Into a. Plionograph.
Thurber’s skill as a raconteur is an
accomplishment for which the private
secretary gets very little credit outside
the White House. Thurber is a master
of Hebrew and Irish dialect, which he
uses with such skill that his stories can
rarely be repeated by anybody else with-
out spoiling.
The president takes great delight in
his secretary’s accomplishment, and for
awhile he made life a burden by calling
it out at all hours of the day and night.
Finally Thurber, in desperation, hit
upon an expedient.
He bought a phonograph and filled a
dozen cylinders with the choicest num-
bers of his repertory. Every night be-
fore going home he places this on the
president’s desk, and whenever Grover
feels the need of a change from the
dreary routine of pardons and diplo-
macy he deftly turns the crank and gets
the benefit of one of Thurber’s side
splitters. —New York Recorder.
Great Patent Case.
What is possibly the largest patent
case ever known in the courts of this
country is being conducted by Judge
Hadlock, the Boston lawyer.
The case is that of Christopher C.
Campbell, assignee in trust, against the
city of New York, for alleged infringe-
ment of patent, and the amount involv-
ed is $15,000,000. Up to the present
time about $200,000 has been spent'in
litigation. It has been in the courts for
nearly 20 years.
In 1864 a patent was granted to
James Knibbs for avalve controlling
water pressure in fire and other steam
engines, and this valve has since come
to be used wherever steam fire engines
‘are in service. —Boston Journal.
Morton Ambitious to Be President.
The gossip from New York is that
Governor Morton is crazy to be presi-
dent. They do say that for the first time
in his life he is willing to open his
pocketbook and keep it open all through
the campaign. It is said by New York-
ers who pretend to know what they are
talking about that the old governor is
so infatuated with himself and the possi-
bilities of next year that he is willing
to spend $1,000,000 in furtherance of
his ambition. -—Chicago Times-Herald.
A Georgia Prophet.
A new religious prophet has arisen
among the Georgia negroes in the per-
son of Jerry White. Jerry isanegro
about 40 years old and is very black.
He came into Athens, Ga. ., recently
from Oglethorpe coulfiy, where he has
been promulgating his doctrines. He
claims to be a prophet of God.
The Gentle Art of Making Enemies.
Spain is not satisfied with her record
in the Allianca aflair, and just to show
that she has no favorites she has fired
upon a British boat. Spain appears to
be the James MacNeill Whistler of na-
tions. —Chicago Post.
A 8500 Beep-d.
A Minnesota legislator has asked a
barber to pay him $500 for mining his
heard. A Minnesota legislator who is
shy cn heard is placed at a great disad-
vantage, and the claim is probably just.
—Washington Post.
Mrs. Beecher In Her Old Home.
Mrs. Henry Ward Beecher has gone
back to occupy her old home in Brook-
lyn at the invitation of its owner, who
insists that she shall stay there for the
rest of her life. —Boston Herald.
