Japan and the United States.

The present differences between Japan
and the United States give special inter
est to the last occasion of dispute be-
tween the two nations. A more startling
illustration of the rapidity with which
Japan has risen into the rank of civilized
power could hardly be given than by the
comparison between the present diplo-
matte negotiations and the methods
adopted by America in 1853. In that
year the Japanese had seized some Amer
lean sailors who had been shipwrecked
upon the coasts, and had confined them
in cages and squadron OF fifteen YES
sells, commanded by Commodore Perry,
was sent out to demand reparation. The
Commodore, in reporting upon the ex-
petition, said that, although there
was not much opportunity for close OBJ
servation, still it appeared that in man.
ners, customs, and dress, the japanese
remained precisely as they had been de-
scribed two centuries before. Most OF
the troops met were armed with spears
and bows and arrows. There were some
thirty fint-lock muskets and two or
three hundred old-fashoned fire locks
amongst them. 1t is indeed difficult to
realize that this description was OF ma
ton that is now in Japan's position.

on destroying Million Dollars Day"
in the September Ladies Home Journal,
Twill allow the holder one-half the face
value of 1t, while three-ffths of note
will be redeemed for full value. Ofcourse,
there are occasional exceptions to this
rule.
Some time since man from New
England forwarded a bunch of dscoored
paper money that he had found buried
in a field. 1t had laid in the ground so
long time, and had been so generously
toasted upon by worms, that it fell to
pieces as soon asst was touched. 1t would
have been utterly impossible for any
one unacquainted with the secret marks
that the government places on its bills
to gather these decayed pieces OF money
together in their proper order; but some
of the clerks in the redemption division
of the Treasury are particularly expert
in sorting and deciphering bits Of mutt
lated money, and through long years OF
experience are able to tell in an instant
to what particular note or kind OF note a
certain scrap belongs. When the pieces
contained in this bunch of old money
were finally sorted and mounted it was
found that while there was not one COM
plete note remaining mot more than two
or three scraps in some instances) the
rightful owner was entitled to a redenlp-
ton of four hundred dollars. Unortu-
nately for the man who found the money,
he could not prove his ownership. nor
could he make affidavit as to what had
become of the missing portions of the
notes. Consequently, the United States
was the gamer in this case. Accidents o.
this nature are by no means rare, as is
attested by the number OF boxes o
charred remnants OF money which are
kept among the curious records of thu
redemption division"

From Fort Wranele the river steamer

From Fort Wrangle the river steamer
Caledonia, OF Hudson Bay line. runs to
Telegraph Creek, distant of 1870 miles.
The river is comparatively safe. la
coma line of steamers will be put on the
river in the spring. There is also trail
up the river for pack horses.
The portage from Telegraph Creek to
Hootalinqua lake, about 120 miles, is
through a partly open and partly
wooded country, somewhat rolling but
not rough. pack trail runs from Tele-
graph Creek to the head of the lake.
At the head of Hootalinqua or Teslin
lake there is plenty Of timber for whip
saving lumber to build boats for the
voyage Of 500 miles down the river to
Dawson, or lumber may be purchased at
the small sawmill now in operation
there. The trip down the lake and river
may be safely made in small boat, or by
the steamer which phys on the route
from the head OF the lake to Dawson.
The lake is about 100 miles long, flowing
into the Hootalinqua river and down
the Yukon.
The time required by this route is
about the same as by the other routes
over the passes, the portage of 120 miles
over comparatively level country be-
ing made in from to 7 days, and the
voyage from the head of the lake being
day or two shorter than by the other
route, and much less hazardous.
Passenger rates to Fort Wrangle,
Skaguay or Dyea are $40 first class and
$25 second class, including meals and
berths. Freight rates-l4 per ton; hay
SIT per ton; horses. $27. This includes
wharfage and landing charges at both
ends OF the route.

Odd Items from Everywhere.

An electric contribution box is the lat
est Connecticut invention. The minister
touches a button, and small silver cars,
lined with velvet, visit each pew stimuli
taneously, running on slender rail back
ofeach pew. Each car returns to lock
box at the pew entrance, and the deacons
collect the receipts after the service.
BY the death of cat the Temple quar-
ter in Paris receives legacy Of 10000
francs for its elementary schools. The
cats mistress, who died in 1892, left the
money for the maintenance OF her pet
cat, with the reversion at its death to
the district municipality il it would look
after the cat. 1t speaks well Tor the
honesty of the trustees that the cat,
which is now dead at the age OF 16 years,
should have survived its mistress FIVE
years.
The nation of Indians that best repre-
sented the warning element Of the race OF
men has made significant appeal to the
government. The remnant Of the Sioux
has asked permission to erect monu-
ment to the braves slain in the battle OF
Wounded Knee in South Dakota, seven
years ago, and to inscribe thereon, in the
Sioux language, words that shall pro-
claim Wounded Knee the last battlefield
on which the Indian shall show hostility
to his white brother"

A Battle Incident.

A man who had been a private in an
Illinois cavalry regiment told of an Incl
dent of the battle OF Jonesboro. He and
his comrades had been dismounted in the
edge of thick woods, and dismounted
cavalry are the hardest of troops to rout.
In front OF them was an open cornheld, a
quarter of mile wide, with woods upon
it's further side. Reinforced by half
dozen companies of infantry, possibly
1900 Federas lay perdu. In blunder, a
company of Conttderates, not more than
ninety men all told, was ordered to at
tack. With yell the handful swept out
of the opposite woods and charged across
the field. At distance OF 100 yards a
single volley disposed of them. Those
that were left on their feet wheeled and
scampered back to their position. One,
however, remained. He was the captain
in command and had been far in advance
OF his men. When he found himself de-
serted he stopped and folded his arms,
Sixty wards away, alone in the wide field,
the summer sun pouring down upon the
silver gray of his uniform. he stared
stanchly into the eyes OF 1900 foemen. He
was only beardless boy, and the newness
of his clothing showed that he was but a
few DAYS from home. All down the long
line of Federals ran cry: Don't shoot
him! Don't shoot him. He gave the
military salute and marched steadily
back to his men. Not gun was fred

Elephants that Count.

Mrs. Marie A. Mile has some
"Stores OF Elephants" in September
St. Nicholas. Mrs. Mile says:
OF their marvellous mathematical
precision and ability to count, no
doubt can exist in the mind of any
one who has ever visited Mandalay,
in Upper Burma. There large for
ests of teak are cultivated by the
government, tor building purposes;
and the squared timbers are placed
and secured one above another, till a
raft is formed to float down the
Irrawaddy, tor conveyance to vari-
Gus other stations. Elephants do
the whole of this work. They con-
vey the enormous logs down to the
waters edge, and pile them one
above another, both lengthwise and
across, till a perfect cube is formed.
They show an intelligence and inter
est in their work that seems human,
as any eye witness can affirm who
has watched an elephant at his load,
ing, and then has seen him move a
lew PAGES to one side, in order to
Judge OF the effect of his work. If the
appearance Of the heap is not sym
metrical, two elephants force the logs
one way or the other with their
trunks till they get the desired result
and the perfect evenness and symme'
try of the finished cube is astonishing
They never miscalculate the number
required for each cube, and never
overweight it.
