CARING FOR TOURISTS.
N1de-Awake japanese Organization to
Look After Foreigners,


The large number OF tourists who
IN recent years have visited Japan have
added considerably to the revenue of
the country It has been calculated
that every visitor spent in his travels
not less than $500, and the aggregate
result OF the arrivals. from. .foyeign
parts meant 100000 and $4,000, coo
to japanese bread-earners, says the
Plttsburg Dispatch. Most Of this fell
INTO the hands OF curio dealers, who
palmed off inferior goods on ignorant
WesterneIs, and Of the guides who
acted as their agents. TO remedy this
abuse society was formed in 1898,
on the initiative of a number of
japanese noblemen and gentlemen, as
sisted by several influential foreign
residents. Its objects were to extend
a welcome to foreign tourists and to
render them every assistance during
their stay in Japan. 1t aims at bring
ing within the tourists reach means Of
accurately observing the features of
the country and the characteristics of,
the people; visiting public buildings
and places famous for scenic beauties ;;
seeing objects of art, both ancient and
modern; entering into social and COM
mercial relations with the people; in
short, atfording them all facility and
convenience toward the accomplish
ment OF their aims, thus indirectly
promoting, in however small degree,
the cause of international intercourse
and trade. Arrangements are made
for the provision of trustworthy guides,
and facilities are given for travel and
sightseeing. Entrance is obtained to
all the government establishments and
to the places of interest in different
parts of the country Introductions
are provided to manufacturers and
merchants, SO that although the main
object of the society is of social ma
ture, it may be of great service to
those who go to Investigate commercial
and industrial conditions According
to the rank or personal record of a
tourist, the society will introduce him
at his request to any Japanese noble
man or gentleman, if the circumstances
seem to warrant such an introduction.
In the case of distinguished tourist
the society might make arrangements
at it's own cost to entertain him, so
that it's members and friends may
make his acquaintance.

A Wonderful Clock.

Undoubtedly one of the most wonder.
full clock in the world was that origi-
nally manufactured for the late Duke
Charles Of Brunswick, and which is
now being exhibited in st. Petersburg.
There are no fewer than ninety-fiye
faces to this colossal time piece. Il indi-
Gates simultaneously the time of day at
thirty different spots on the surface of
the earth, BESIDES the movement OF che
earth around the sun, the phases OF
the moon. the signs OF the zodiac, the
passage over the meridian of moro
than fifty stars Of the northern hen1j-
sphere, and the date, according to the
Gregorian, Greek, Mussulman. and He
brew calendars. At his death, Prince
Charles heQueathed the clock to the
Swiss confederation. So complicated
are the works that it took two years to
put them together after the clock had
been sent in detached pieces from
Switzerland to Russia.

TREASURE TROVE.
The Brooch of Tara Was Picked Up by

Chill on tho Seaslore.
Treasure trove interests everybody,
says Andrew Lang in Longman's Mag
azine. Mr.. Robinson tells of eleven
crowns of gold, set with precious
stones, found in 1858 by some Spanish
peasants near Toledo. One Of the
crowns has the Gothic name of SUM
thila, who reigned from 621 to 631.
Who buried them We shall never
know The brooch of Tara, Irish work
Of the seventh century, was picked Up
by a child on the seashore in 1850. A
viking robber may have dropped it.
The bullion of English kings was
found in 1910 at Cuerdale. where it
had been laid in $40. The ring OF
Ethelwu!f of Wessex turned UP at
Laverstock on the Test. AS to draw
ings, a friend of mine found one by an
intimate friend of Michael Angelo in a
dirty little print shop, fer half a
crown. At Merton my friend Mr.. Els.
son found a treasure trove of old mez-
college rooms. The letters of Warwick
the kingmaker were discovered in a
loft over a coachhouse by Mr.. Maxwell
Lyle. The magic crystal Of King Lo-
thaire, in the British Museum, was
sold by a curiosity dealer, inscription
and all, for 10 francs. The museum
paid 1867. But why 'magic?" The ball
is engraved with Susanna and the
elders. Otherwise miss k might GO
and have "scry" in it.

A Lugubrious Prediction.

Although the great Arago calculated
that there was but one chance out Of
PSI 100000 that the earth could be
struck by comet, and although scien-
tific men think the collision would be
as bad for the comet as for Steven
sons "coo," a Vienna professor is
thoroughly convinced that on the 18th
Of November, $780, this mundane
sphere is to draw the one chance in
the celestial lottery, and it only re-
mains for him now to figure out wheth-
err our planet is to be reduced by the
shock to impalpable dust or form other
comets and wreck ether worlds, or
whether the mortal race is to be ter
minated by asphyxiation. Both alter
natives have their disadvantages, but
the world will breathe easier when
fully acquainted with the exact details
of it's coming demise.
