JAPAN'S FIRST RULER.
a Pretty Tradition Which Is Believed b.
All Loyal Japs.

All Loyal Japs.
The Chinese have an older civiliZa-
ton than the japanese, but there is no
doubt in the minds of statisticians at
large that the latter people have the
superior system of government They
are endcavOring at any rate to keep
abreast with the times and the adj
vancemcnt of the age. The history of
Japan goes back about two thousand
six hundred years, and dates from the
period when the orb of the day pro-
claimed his dominion over the country.
1t is very pretty tradition, which is
believed by all loyal Japs. that the sun
was the first Emperor in the land.
Since that time no ruler has been ar-
rayed in such splendOr. not even the
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Solomon of East
ern pride, nor the lilies of the field
even they present Il comparatively
modest appearance beside the cfful-
gcnce of the great, shining Emperor.
But the sun lost his grip-in some
way was deposed. and on the throne
was placed Jimmu Tenno. No record
exists of the sun having become angry
ut the proceedings or interposing OBJ
jections. On the contrary, it is one of
the greatest examples of returning
good for evil that is on record. Instead
of going off on a strike and, by dous-
ing the glim. cutting off the illumina-
ton of the world. old Sol went right
along shedding his beams with the
same lavish and gratuitous spirit as
before. The children of the sun who
have from time to time sat upon the
ancient throne, have, according to ma
tive historians, got along about rs well
rs the rulers of other nations, although
it is alleged that the Mikado has always
been mere figure-head, and that the
business and policy of the government
were conducted by the Ministers OF

;;ome all you true bred Irishmen wherever tina
you be,
hope you'll pay attention and listen unto me,
Attention pay and lend an ear to what In
going to say,
It's of that glorious turnout on last Ut. Patrick
Day.
FOR to see Erins sons that day walk in thei,
countrys cause,
Protected by America, her freedom and her laws
United like the shamrock forever shall remain
The Murphys and O'Briens the Kennedys and
O'Neils.
United are those Irishmen, united may they be,
And like that little emblem that one stem bears
tho three.
With brother]y love they marched along 20 the
tune of flies and drums,
And if Granuaeil from Ireland came she'd smile
upon her soma.
With banners waving in the wind and music on
that day,
Played Hail Columbia, Garryowen, Yankee
Doodle and Patrick's Day.
The shamrock and the stars and stripes that day
went hand and hand,
To beat the foe of Petlun Roe. and free our ma
tive land.
To see the military appearance of the troops
march rank and file,
Through Washington and Hennepin avenues, as
the city hall they stood in line.
Their military talents they went through re-
viewed by the Mayor
And we'll may Frins sons adore the land whose
name they bear
Success to Marshal Corrigan, that ttay did ian-
res wn,
Likewise to Captain Kennedy. his officers aud
hi, men,
The way that day they marched their men did
I'LL our hearts with Joy,
As thoy did before in days of yoro on the piuIns
Of EentenoY.
Cheel ,l,, my gallant Irishmen the time it is not
far
When that dear Isle On us will SMILE protected
by the stars,
And when sha Stars and Stripes may lead Che
Eagle Of Liberty,
The whole day long will be our song, Odd Ire
land must be free.
