town, Kiyota, expecting to take a professor

Seikichi 1wasaki is native Of northern
Japan. He puts his residence at Toxic, as
do most of the japanese in this country, it
being an easy name for them to tell Ameri
cans. His father is a wealthy merchant ut
this place, and the business will probably bo
turned over to the son after the completion
of his education. Mr.. IwasaH is in the law
school and a man Of much promise. After
two years. study at Cornell university in the
academic department he went to tho Yale
Law school. He will not enter the profess
sion, but is endeavoring to get a broad edu-
cation. Besides his regular class room work
he does much general reading.
Toshitake Okubo is a nobleman, as his
every appearance indicates. He is scrupu-
lously neat in his attire and thoroughly up
in all the novelties Of the typical young man
Of fashion. His father, who was premier Of
Japan, and practically ruled the empire, was
assassinated on the morning Of May II, 1873.
The tragedy was the outcome Of tho difficulty
at that time with Corea Mr.. Okubo, who
was q man Of great travel and fine legal
ability, opposed war, which tho ministers
of the war department and his followers
were anxious to have take place Considera-
BILE feeling arose among the factions. AS a
result, tho war advocates employed six
assassirs, who waited for Mr.. Ukubo and
brutally murdered him with daggers while
on his way to session Of the court, held ju>t
at daybreak. The chief assassin was appre-
hended and beheaded, and the other five will
have worked out sentence of ten years in
a few months. In view Of the great influence
Of his father the younger Okubo came to
America to be educated, and will graduate
next year. He will receive q government
appointment upon his return He comes
from a royal family, is very bright and will
make keen lawyer.
Kojiro Matsurgata and Soichi Tsuchiya
are both good scholars. Mr.. Matsurgata is
q nobleman, his father being at present mini
lister Of finance Of Japan. He returns to
Japan to accept responsible STATE position.
He is of literary turn Of mind, doing
considerable miscellaneous writing. Mr..
Tsuchiya has studied at Yale under the
direction Of his guardian, tho newly elected
minister of foreign affairs of Japan, Oquama,
of Toxic He is a very hard student. and
stands away up in his class.
Taken all in oil, the Japs are among the best
students at Yale. They work very hard and
still find time to 60 into society. Tennis is
their favorite game, the exercise being about
as violent as their constitution will permit.

their worst enemy. They possess fine liter

a fellow student of several men who have

next entered the University OF Notre Dame,

Tho Tobacco Of Havana.

It is needless to lay down set Of rules for
the guidance of tobacconists. They know
that tho soil of Cuba will not produce light
cigar tobacco any better than any other.
When nature produces q tobacco light in
color it is unsuited for cigars, is well
known fact the world over. This is the rule
that nature herself has made, and when you
get pale color you may know that the to-
bacco has been doctored and unfit in richness
and aroma for delicious smoke. The great
crop OF Havana tobacco is dark; the coming
crop will. in all probability, be dark also;
and if the dealers do not bestir themselves
and enter into the work Of converting their
misguided customers they will imperil their
trade in the finer grades Of cigars The Ha-
vana tobacco excels all other for cigars The
Mexican and Manila weeds are favorites for
cheroots. The Kentucky tobacco is inter-
mediate in character The tobacco Of Vir-
ginia is the best for pipe smoking, while that
from Maryland is used for the cheaper grades
of cigara-New York Mail and Express

encountered, and the cargo of tho Rosedale
was transferred in Fighters" to Kingston.
From Kingston she proceeded over the
length of Lake Ontario: through the Welland
canal; thence along Lake Erie; through the
Detroit and St. Clair rivers and Lake st.

Michigan through the Straits of Mackinaw.
Once on Lake Michigan it is plain sailing
straight up the lake to the mouth of tho
Chicago river, on which the city of Chicago
is built.
The Rosedale steamed into the river, past
the system Of swinging bridges common in
cities through which small navigable rivers
pass, and landed at her dock, about two
miles and half from the rivers mouth.
Here she was visited by large numbers Of
Chicagoans who 6ocked to see the first

occurred the other day on board the French

from Marscilles to Algicrs. Just .s tho YES

quite black with swallows. It was tLca
about 6 o'clock i'll the evening. Tho birds
alighted on tho vessel in thousands, on the
sails, ropes end yards Of the ADD cl Kader.
After perky survey of the deck from their
eminenccs aloft they descended coolly on
deck, hopped abou: among the sailors and
passengers, AID eventually found their way
into the cabins both fore and eft. The birds
were evidently fatigucd after long fight,
and allowed themselves to be caught by the
people of the Ship, who gave them welcome
reception and provided them with food,
which they enjoyed heartily. Tho little
winged strangers remained all night OH the
vessel, and in the morning at o'clock the
head lookout bird no doubt cited the Balearc
Isles, for the whole flock made for land. after
having spent a comfortable and refreshing

he was born in the midst of revolution and

The system Of receiving books will also be
very convenient. This is provided for oppo-
site the main entrance. The books are re-
ceived, passed through the cataloguing de-
partment and placed in their proper stack,
and then go to the reader. In some libraries
much greater care is taken in cataloguing
than in others. Tho Boston libraries, when
they receive book giving only the initial
letters Of the authors name on the title page,
send him note asking for his full name,
and inclose postal card with space left
for him to write it. Thus he has only to
write his own name and drop the card in the
mail box. This prevents confusion where
there are books in the library by authors Of
the same surname and the same initials to
the Christian names
It is safe to say that the new library at
Philadelphia will be complete in every re-
spect, and, when finished, will doubtless be
one Of the finest, if not the finest, of library
buildings in tho country. Its books at pres
ent number but $4,000 volumes, but with
such splendid receptacle doubtless endow-

pride of Pennsylvania in such an institution

Plans for new building for the library Of
the University of Pennsylvania at Philadel-

Of Harvard, and Mr.. Melville Dewey, Of

The building is intended to hold 500, ,0C0
volumes One Of the main difficulties in
storing so many books so that they may be
easily accessible is in proper admission and
distribution of light The books being
stacked in such fashion as to form long
tunnels, it is impossible to introduce light
from ordinary windows that will enable one
to read the titles to tho books except those
near the windows This difficulty will be
obviated in the new library building by
making the entire roof Of glass and by let
ting down light wells. But glass roof,

revolution and tho short lived republic, for
which he was minister Of state. Another
revolution followed. and Sagasta filed the
same office for King Amadeus When that
monarch was dethroned and tie Bourbons

frorz which he is once more recalled with
the promise Of great reforms, liberty and
progress. He is but 81 years old, in firm
health and Of fine presence; SO much is hoped
from his administration. He no longer has
