who met his death in the seventeenth
century by his resolution in bringing be-
fore the shotgun in person the grievances
of his fellow agriculturists. oppressed by
their feudal lord. Unable to obtain re-
dress from any subordinate authority,
he concealed himself beneath bridge
over which the shogun's procession must
inevitably pass. and climbing ont at the
crucial moment thrust his memorial at
the end of bamboo stick into the die
tator' 3 litter. This was capital offense,
and even handed justice punished the
oppressors. but executed the complain
snt.
An Englishman travelling lately in the
part of tine country inhabited by this
Japanese tribune found his tomb and a
temple erected TO his memory. which has
been highly honore,l of late years. The
visitor pointed out that Sakura had been
crucified for complaining of the rent.

The boys in the city proper are finding
fault because in picking ont streets on
which coasting will be allowed this win

streets that are tipped up at one end.
This is on the dead level. like nearly all

All men who have been boys once like
to see boys coasting. Any bitter old

was always a bitter old cynic and was
