Jnpnne. EshlbIt.

Nothing in the exhia \ of the japanese
st the exposition is slS hted. Whatever
they have attempted to AZ in connection
with the fair they have dose well. This
is especially true of their exhibits in the
Woman's building, where the life and
work Of their women is accurate by and ar
tistically portrayed in clear object lessons.
A living model with her quiet and charm
ing courtesy and grace is all that is needed
to make this picture perfect. A Japanese
lady, like Mrs. MorimotO of the tea house,
sitting and moving about in the two rooms
would make the scene lifelike. The ex-
hibit made by japanese women may be
found in two different parts Of the build
ing, upstairs at the north end Of the east
gallery, and downstairs in the southwest
corner. In the room upstairs, on the walls,
are a number Of fine specimens of woman's
work, but the articles on the floor are
mans work, placed there by the request Of
Mrs. Potter Palmer, simply to complete
the furnishing of the room. But, unfort-
unately, their presence not only gives a
false impression, but also detracts some
what from the proper appreciation Of the
exhibits on the walls. These articles Of
masculine labor are screens, the center
table, a chair and the artificial ceiling.
The screens are either 'yuzen" or en-
broidery or both The process called
''yuzen-zome" or "fairy-dyeing'' is one by
which a pattern is painted on "habutaye"
silk, velvet, crepe or muslin, the piece
then steamed and the design fixed by
secret means. The art work Of japanese
women is very interesting. The first to
attract special attention is an Old-time
scene of a few court mobiles in the imperial
reception room; then comes a mountain
scene, and next to that are four beautiful
panels, done in water colors and represent /
ing in order scenes OF winter, autumn,
summer and spring

THE TARIFF DEBATE
Will Occupy About Six
teen Days Time.
BUT THREE SET SPEECHES
To Be- Made others Will Defend the
Measure When Read in Sections. Q

WASHINGTON, Dec. 30.-The indications
bill in the house will be much shorter
than was originally anticipated. The
fact that the debate did not begin in the
house before the holidays and the opinion
held by Democratic leaders that there is
an urgent necessity for prompt action
has led them TO seriously discuss in the
last day or two the advisability of limit
ing all debate TO about two weeks.
Speaker Crisp, Representative Catchings
and Mr.. Montgomery yesterday talked
over the question of the extent and
character of the debate, and the consensus
of opinion seemed to be that there was no
necessity for prolonged discussion. They
thought, considering the extensive dis
cussion of the tariff question for the last
six years, that four days ought to be suiii-
cient for general debate and about 10 days
for debate under the five-minute rule,
when the bill would be open for amend
ment.
II is understood that beyond the ex-
haustive speech of Chairman Wilson,
with which the the debate will open, not
more than two set speeches will be made
during the general debate by the Demo
cratic members of the committee. The
other members will content themselves
with defending the measure when it is
read by sections
A Precedent.
Members who advocate this short de-
bate say they find ample precedent for it
in the debate on the Mckinley bill, when
In the house only four days were allowed
for general debate, and between eight and
10 days for debate under the flve-minute
rule.
Twenty-three days after the Mckinley
bill passed the house the debate on it be-
gan in the senate; about three months
later it passed that body. The final con-
ference reports were agreed to and the
bill was signed by the president three
weeks later, and became law five
months after debate on it began in the
house.
The famous tariff debate of 1888, when
the Mills tariff bill was before congress,
lasted 100 days in the house alone. OF
that 20 days were consumed In general
debate, and SO days, with some Interrupt
tions. in consideration by sections under
the flve-minute rule.
In the senate the Republicans presented
a substitute for the Mills bill known as
the Allison substitute. The debate on
the substitute began Oct. 8, 1888, and it
passed the senate Jan. %, 1889, and both
the Allison and Mills bills were allowed to
die.

many of the leading generals Of the
revolution were foreigners, like Lafay-
cite, De Kalb, Stcuben and Kosiusco,
and Others unacclimatcd Englishmcn,
like Gates and Charles Lee, Washington
could trace his lineage back through
many centuries TO the best Saxon and
Norman blood and through three gen.
erations of like inheritance on this side
Of the Atlantic. No American has ever
had better representative stock and
ancestry; coming from that solid mid.
