Japan are punished who have the mis-
fortune to be burned out is stated as
follows: If the house is unoccupied
and is accidentally set on fire, the per-
son through whose carelessness the fire
is started receives ten days imprisOn-
ment with hard labor; if it is inhabited
and the fire be produced by the pro-
prietor, then he is punished with twenty
days; if the fire spreads to other houses
the sentence Is forty days, and when
anybody is killed thereby, one degree
heavier; but if the person killed is q
relative of the first degree, the punish
ment is one hundred days; if the house
belongs to the Government, one hun
dred days; if temple, from sixty days
to one year, but ten years are inflicted
if it happens to be one of the great
temples of Isle, or in the precincts of

Jude for life is inflicted if the offender
