THE DAY IL TOXIC.

But the chief interest and exc tement of
the day ceuiered in Toxic, the new capital of
the empire. Into this city visitors had been
pouring for days and every inn and re stsurant
was filled to Overlooking. Scarcely ha / the
day da~ned when the city began to be full
of festival sounds, beating of drums. piping
Of fifes, sna'ches of song and explosions of
fireworks. La addition TO the imps rial ar
range ments for celebrating the day every
society and householder had made indepen-
dent arrangements. Flsgs and lanterns, all
bearing the national emblem, full red sun
on white background, were hung before
each house even in the meanest alley. Fes-
tai cars. bearing inscriptions and carrying
dancing girls, traversed the streets Mag
nifcent arches were erected and decorated
with the chr, ssnthemums made of thousands
of orsrses, Ropes were suspended for il
Elimination and gas Jets were arranged TO
show the Chinese character for Long Live

In another column we publish an inter
esting account of the celebration by the
Japanese of the proclaim ,tion of their new
Constitution. II cannot fail to he read with
pleasant emotions by all who have followed
the history Of that remarkable people for
the last quarter OF a century. II the genius
and social Institutions of the japanese are
sufficiently elastic aud strong to bear such
rapid changes aud enormous strides for
ward rs they have been making in recent
wears. they will justly take place as
among the most remarkable of modern
nations. Not less than two thousand pris
oners. whose oilenses had been those of too
much freedom of speech or action against
the government. were liberated. and 1t
was the evident purpose of the authorities
to make the occasion of the constitutional
proclamation as joyful as possible, with
the aim and hope of promoting cordial
feelings between the government officials
aud people. Now let the strong Powers
Of Europe follow the example of the
United States in relaxing and thoroughly
hberalizing their treaties wruug from
Japan in the days of her weakness, and
they will show themselves worthy of this
enlightened period of the world and de-
serving TO have International relations
with that gifted people on equal terms.

Army-curssd Europe.


The New York Press points out that the
s'most recent figures a. TO the size Of the
European armies give startling hint OF
the enormous burden they innict on the
taxpayinz masses. Indeed. often az We
have been reminded that Europe Is little
less than vast camp, few American read
ers are aware Of the actual number Of the
troops which IN case Of war. W uld be
swiftly modified and dispatched TO the
eenters Of conflict. These figures, when
baldy stated. naturally give rise to feel
ing Of iDcredulity.
And yet il seems 10 be an established
fact that Russia and Germany could each
put 1900 900 men into active service with
In few weeks after the outbreak Of hos
tiliiies: that. while France doubtless pos
sesse@ 10000 who have been drilled

3, 100 900; that Austria has an available
army Of at least 700 600; that, In long
war, England. ultimate contribution
would probably reach 2,d00,000 soldiers.
and that even italy, the youngest Of the
sisterhood Of the great powers, could, by
suaining. put 900 900 men into the field.
These figures are grimly eloquent.

GLTMPSES OF JAPAN.
Cele alton OF the New Constitution OF
Japan A Pen Picture OF the Event

The llth of February, 1889, will go down
in history as the declaration day of japanese
independence, for on that day the constitu-
,ion promised the people by the Emperor
more than twenty years ago was publicly
proclaimed. The day was the anniversary Of
the accession to he throne of Jimmo, the
first Emperor, and, as if to remind the people
that their constitution should not lessen the
power and Importance of the Emperor, the
usual temple services in honor of Jimmo
were grately elaborated, and by imperial
command local officials proceeded to every
officially recognized shrine throughout the
empire to pay their respects to the spirit of
the first Emperor.
All day long excursion trains poured
crowds of devotees into the favorte temples.
Miniature gods were recklessly purchased
and given the children for toys and the in
cessant pealing of the mellow old temple
bells seemed like a melancholy dirge in con-
trast to the merry chatter of the groups of
people that trooped tn and fro with the little
lunch boxes, fire crackers and saki gouri.
All the pent-up enthusiasm of the Oriental
character burst into extravsgsnt gayety, and
there was not a hamlet that did not astonish
itself by its wonderful display of Nippon
flags and lanterns.

Heavy HaIr and Hard Cheek.

Heavy Halr and Hard Cheek,
| Washington Post.
Opie P. Read, the editor of the AR.
kansas Traveller, is a big man with a
tremendously heavy head of long,
black, unkempt hair. One day he
was passing the office of well
known hair restorative establishment
on State street, Chicago. His part
ner, Mr.. Benham, was with him, and
said:
ave ought to get an advertisement
| out of this establishment"
Opie looked in and saw a family of
country people inside.
"I'll get it for you right now," said
he, and in he walked.
The cOuntryman had just taken off
his hat and was showing the manager
how bald he was and asking if he
thought the hair would ever grow
again OH his head. Opie walked up
to the manager and putting out his
hand warmly, said:
my dear sir, have come a long
way to thank you in person and to
show you what your restorative has
done for me.n
"Here he took off his old black
SLOUGH hat and shook out his long
and wonderfully thick, fine hair.
There sir" said he gratefully,
''lOOk at that. Four months ago, you
remember, 1 was as bald as that
electric lamp up there"
The manager was a little dazed.
This was rather more than even he
could swallow.
"What did you do for it?" put in
the interested countryman.
Used this restorer-four dozen bot
ties of it-according to directions"
The upshot of it was the country
man took two dozen bottles and went
his way.
There" said Opie to his partner,
''now you talk business with this
man, and I guess you'll get a pretty
good advertisement out of him.
When the manager learned who
Opie was, he said:
"You can put me down for the big
gest ad in your paper and send in
your bill when you.please."

THE resolutions passed by the G.
A. R. at Milwaukee thanking Presi-
dent Harrison for the appointment of
Tanner, was not merely a hasty reso-
luton passed in a spirit of blind re-
sentiment to the structures of the dem
ocratic press. 1t was a resolution
passed after earnest and cool headed
consideration of the whole question
in open debate. 1t is very easy to
relegate that resolution to small par
tisanship of feeling but the facts are
against any such classification.

Attends TWO Churches.

Baltimore Sun.
That part of Broadway on the east
side between Pratt street and half the
block toward Cough street, has rat
whose actions have gained for it the
title of the religious rat. He is seen
at night, and only when there are SER
vices either in Trinity Protestant
Episcopal church or Broadway Baptist
church. He seems to be in very
placid humor when there is service in
but one of the churches named. But
when the two congregations are wor-
Shipping at the same time, as is the
case on Sunday nights, he becomes I'M
easy and keeps up con slant running
between thu two. Last night, when
some residents tried to prevent him
going into the yard of the Baptist
church just as the Rev. Mr.. Phillips
began sermon on "The Evils OF
Liquor" the rodent made an attack
upon the party. Several ladies
screamed Justify, which caused the
rat to beat a retreat and soon disap-
pear within the shadows of Trini-
ty. Shortly after he was seen to get
into the Baptist yard. He remained
but short while when he returned
to Trinity, and vice versa. When
there is service in but one church he
remains somewhere about the edifice
until it is over, never changing ex
cept to satisfy himself that there is
no service in the other church.
