FICTITIOUS INTERVIEW.

The Advertiser of Saturday quotes
extracts from purported interview
with Mr.. Fujii, Diplomatic Agent of
Japan, by IA representative OF the
San Francisco Chronicle. Mr.. Fugii
has conveyed to the BULLETIN dis
claimer of several of the express
sions attributed to him. He is re-
presented by the Chronicle as say
ing:
MY Government is not altogether
pleased with the treatment given
japanese subjects in the United
States. and it does not desire to cX-
pose the large japanese population
here to similar disadvantages and
embarrassments.'
With regard to the foregoing, the
Diplomatic Agent said such an utter
ance from him would have been an
unwarrantable liberty. 1t makes
him say things about the relations
/ between Japan and the United
| States which he is not in position
to say. The most friendly relations
exist between the two countries
There may be some friction in Cali-
rornia over the arrival of japanese
immigrants, but it is entirely local
MIR. Full is aware Of having con,
versed with representatives Of Amer
lean papers. and admits he mentions
ed Il claim on behalf of japanese
residents to equal rights with Other
foreign 5. 1t is true that his Gov
crnment desires that its pcopl,
should be "regardcd as civilized be
ings. and not as children or bar
barians."
Again. the Chronicle represent
Mr.. Fujii as saying:
80 serious is the Wow taken O
this matter by my Government tina
several tirst-class vessels OF war vii
be sent to Honolulu providing an.
purpose is developed to conline tn
ballot to the classes now vested will
it or to refuse it to Japanese Will
comforting it upon other foreign
ers.'
To this the reply Of the DIPLOMAT
Agent is that it is simply imposs
BILE that he should have uttered sue
threat. 1t is wholly out of hi
province to make any such remarks
, and as matter of fact he said noti
ing to any reporter which could b
construed into the sentiments quo
, ed. Since Mr.. Fuiii communicate
these contradictions to us, he is IT
, ported in the Advertiser as giving
| complete denial to more and wors
statements, regarding the attitud
! of the Japanese Government, whic
were published in Saturdays Star.

WHOLESALE ROBBERY.
A White Man Cleans Out Jap
anese Watchmaker's Shop.

The little stand on the corner of
Beretania and Nuuanu streets, for.
merly a soda stand, was opened
lately by an entcrprising Japanese
named Y. Shido as matchmaker
shop. Business was brisk with MIR.
Shido and number of silver watches
we're poured in on him for repairs
Between IL and | o'clock to-day,
while Shido was doing something in
the rear of his little shop, a man
named William Wilson, evidently
under the influence of liquor, en-
tered the shop and picked up
twenty-seven watches and slowed
them away in diisrent pockets.
This operation of course caused the
pockets to bulge out aud people
wondered what was in the mans
pockets as he walked down the street.
Judge of the Jap's surprise when
on returning to the front he found
his shop was bare. He Immediately
gave an alarm and went to the Sta
ton to report his loss. :, e,
In the meantime Wilson walked
around to Fort street and when he
was near the Pantheon Stables a
police officer spied one of the chains
hanging out of his pocket and ar
rested him on suspicion. The man
resisted but another cop arriving ne
was taken to the Station. Shidc
was there when the man arrived ano
identified the watches. There wert
1 brass, 5 nickel and II silver watche:
and silver cases and brass anc
silver chains. These were found IL
the pockets of his trousers and coat
Wilson is stranger here, having
only been in the country about two
months. Whether the theft of th'
watches was deliberately planned
or whether the liquor was its suddel
inspiration, cannot be said. Never
theless Wilson's prospects for
STEADY job are good.

The rather unexpected ar
rival Of MIR. Blount augurs well
for the early settlement of the
difficulties which besct the
business men Of Hawaii at
this time, and he is welcomed
to Paradise with that same
fervor which characterizes the
land boomer in his reception
of a railway surveying corps.
Mr.. Blount comes as the re-
preventative of the greatest
republic on earth; he comes
untrammeled by selfish inter-
ests and with no desire to
favor one side or the other.
Upon his report will depend
the future welfare of the peo-
pie. That his decision, after
a careful review of the situa-
ton, will be just no one has a
right to question, that he will
be honest in the expression OF
his convictions is not to be dis
puted by anyone who has ever
lived in the United States, for
MIR. Blount is a Southerner;
nothing more is necessary to
commend him to the proven
bal hospitality of the Hawaiian
nation.
Bv this time the needs Of
the country have been brought
to his attention, and he no
doubt realizes the necessity
for careful inquiry into the
status of affairs and the causes
which precipitated the revolu-
ton. He knows that prompt
action is necessary and has
probably been sitting up nights
working out a solution to the
problem while the average
patriotic citizen has been snor.

But, first of all, the head of the house fills
great glass with wine. and, drinking to

the feast of the family; and children and

wandering afar, make great sacrifices to

Something Of this remains even in wicked

Tongues and hearts are loosened as the re-

tell over again the tradition Of the spirits
that ride the northern light at the hour of
the midnight mass. The fairies of the woods
and the waters, the Korrigans with their
hammers who have given theme to one of
the successful ballots of the Paris Opera,
the dragons that guard hidden treasures

city, and 1t is covered with wax tapers and
flowers and sweets and toys. Then. on the
morning OF Christmas day, the children OF
Alsace and Lorraine, to the number OF
1900, gather together to receive their gifts

remember, alas, that Christmas has not al
ways brought peace to men. 1t Is the one

Christmas now for more than twenty years
But little by little the homely Christmas
ways are disappearing everywhere in
France. As in England under the Puritan
sway of Cromwell. the people under the re-
public lament that good old Christmas is
dying, nearly gone. 1t came back again in
England, however, and 1t has ended by con-

America. In Paris, 1t is true, the churches

loud hue and cry is still kept up for the

The Santa Claus comes nowhere in
France on Christmas day. 1t has always
been on the 9th of December. the feast Of
st. Nicholas. from whom We get Santa
Claus by direct descent, through Holland
and the Dutch OF New York. In French
times brought out in person instead of COM
ing down the chimney-lons bearded, wrap
ped up like a bishop, with a crook in his
hand to give each of the children their
praise or blame for past behavior. But in
general the French St. Nicholas is less diff
ferent from our own Santa Claus than are
the quaint Christmas usages which still
flourish where the modern spirit has not
swept them away.
Christmas eve Is itself fast day-the
last Of the season of advent. But when
nightfall comes the strictness Is relaxed
and grown folks and little ones are served
with Christmas cakes and sweetrleats. This
- the time for the wonders in sugar candy
which delight the hearts of children. When
all has been comfortably slowed away, the
children are hustled off to a pretense of
sleep-as IL any one could sleep between an
o o'clock supper of sweets and the reveillon
or breakfast which is to come after the mid
night mass at O'Clock in the morning.
In the center and south of France, the
