Mrs. Pilsbury waited a moment till the

through the door.
A sudden rush Of the throng and some
screaming on the part Of the female

suddenly out into the street with the
rest to see what the excitement was.
Flames were bursting out Of the upper
windows OF a large chair factory on the
block below, and engines were tearing
down the street, followed by the usual
crowd. Soon the street was black with
heads.
one OF these heads belonged to the
husband OF Mrs. Bob Pilsbury. Though

what had happened the car started back

ensued, but the passengers fears were
allayed when the motorman succeeded
in putting on the brakes. The car. how

feet.
The passengers were Obliged to alight
from the car and walk along the narrow
trestle to the top Of the hill.

A RELIGIOUS CURIOSITY.
Buddhist Biblical Books Written In Micro
scopical Japanese Characters.

scopical Japanese Characters.
One hundred and twenty-six thousand
words written on piece Of paper
13x17K inches is something unusual.
When the writing is eleven hundred
years old and the author the founder
of nations alphabet the script is in
deed curiosity. Such writing is
now on exhibition at the store of the
Idzu Tea Company.
The writing is the work of Kobo
Taishi. Literally translated this means
Saint Propagandist. 1t is the property
of I. Takahasshai, descendant of the
noted saint, and has passed as sacred
heirloom from father to son for over
thousand years.
Mr.. Taltahasshai is connected with
the royal family of japan, and is a
member of the legislature of the state
of Nagasalzi. He is scholar of great
local repute, and, having heard that
there were in America philosophers
who were inclined to look favorably
on the Buddhist religion, he sent the
relic across the sea in charge of his son.
The writing is so fine that a. micro
scope must be used to decipher the
intricate Chinese and Japanese char
acters. It is an exact copy of eight
books of the Buddhist bible, and was
written as q sort of self-inhicted PEN
ance to purify the spirit of its holy
author.
Every precaution is to be taken to
insure the safety of the precious docu-
ment In a case of whitewood Is a
beautiful lacquered box wrapped in
green silk Within the lacquered box
is another made OF paullownia i'm
perials-a very light, pourous wood
that is extensively used for making
cabinets in which to store treasures.
In this box is the writing. The owner
has refused an offer Of two thousand
dollars for it from one of the great
japanese temples.
The author, Kobo Taishi, was one Of
the holiest men of Japan, and as his
name signifies, was the founder and
propagator of the Shin Cow, or True
Word" one of the eight sects of Budd-
hism.
1t was he who evolved the idea of the
japanese alphabet. Before his time
the Japanese had used only Chinese
characters. He gave sign to each Of
the forty-seven primitive sounds used
in expressing Japanese words, and ar
ranged them in verse, which, while
perfect in rhyme and meter, contains
the forty-seven sounds without repeat
ing any of them. This bit Of poetry is
to-day the first thing child is taught
in the primary schools of japan. Mr.
Hamamura gives the following free
translation Of it:
Beauty and sweetness are lovely,
but fade soon. In n.the study Of real life
we find this is also true. When we
think we understand its secrets we
learn that it is but an elusive dream"
As stated above, this sacred relic is
the property OF T. Takahasshai, a per-
sonal friend OF Mr.. Hamamura, and by
his consent he permitted it to be sent
to San Jose for exhibition previous to
being sent to Chicago.-San Jose (Cal.)
