JAPAN MAKES REPLY
Enters Strong PrOsest Against Action In
Hawaii Against Her Rights.


Hawaii Against Her Rights.
Washington, July 2S.-Toru Hoshi, the
Japanese minister to the United States,
has replied to the communication of
Secretary Sherman of July 10 regarding
the proposed annexation Of Hawaii to
the United States. and its tenor clearly
shows that the japanese government
will continue to oppose and protest
against such annexation. He says the
imperial government has no hesitation
in admitting the predominant influence
Of the United States in the Hawaii ISL
ands, but that predominance, so long
existing unquestioned, he regards as
reason against the disturbance of the
status quo.
He urges that the absorption of Ha-
wall by the United States would be the
signal for the revival in Europe of DOR
mant territorial ambition in the Pacific
and the last vestige of native autonomy
would disappear. He quotes Secretary
Bayard to the German government in
regard to respecting the well established
rights of third parties and says that the
Japanese government has large unliq-
Undated claims against Hawaii for what
1t deems to be clear and deliberate viola
tons of treaty, and ii cannot admit
that any alteration in the Hawaiian
status would in the least tend to relieve
Hawaii of liability" Minister Hosh
concludes as follows:
Therefore, have the honor to repeat
that Japan has absolutely no designs
Of any kind whatever inimical to Hawaii
and no motive in her dealings with that
country except to secure by legitimate
means the due observance Of just obli-
eatiOncv

CLEAN PARIS KITCHENS.
Ns Ashes or Garbage There, Says Lecturer
Clarence Cook.

No Ashes or Garbage There, Says Lecturer
Clarence Cook.
What becomes of the ashes and gar
bage in Paris was question raised and
partially answered by Clarence Cook in
an address delivered at the regular meet.
ing of the League For Political Educa-
ton on Little Housekeeping In Paris. "
The Paris which Mr. Cook talked
about was that of some % years ago,
when the differences in domestic life in
that city and this were much greater
than at present. Since then New York
has adopted the fiat system in all its de-
tails, but there were still differences,
chief among which was the handling of
garbage and ashes. In the apartments
which Mr. Cook occupied in Paris, and
which he described as being delightful
ly situated, though ION the wrong side
of the Seine" according to the ideas Of
q fashionable friend of his in the Amer
lean colony, there were no ashes that he
could see The stove consisted Of an iron
top. with six circular holes in it. When
ever anything was to be cooked an iron
basket Of charcoal was put into one Of
these holes, and the food placed over it.
When the charcoal was burned, what
was left fell through the basket and dis
appeared.
In the way of food everything came
10 the apartment fully prepared for
cooking. In mutton chop there was
nothing but meat and bone, and when
the meat had been eaten the bone was
deposited on the charcoal fire. Potatoes
were bought already peeled, carrots
without their green tops and all green
vegetables without any Of the superfiu-
Gus outer leaves or husks or skins which
would go to make up garbage. All of
this cleaning and peeling was done at
the markets, and the resulting material
was saved in clean condition. Even
coffee grounds, Mr.. Cook said, were
used after leaving the fiat.
No one in Paris ever bought enough
of anything to be left over, and no one
was ashamed to ask the dealer for sim
gle mutton chop or small portion Of
any article of food. If there were any
garbage or ashes in Paris, Mr.. Cook
said, no one ever saw either of them,
which was certainly different from the
experience of New York woman he
told of, who after years residence in
the city wrote to friend that life in the
metropolis meant the taking care Of an
ash barrel. New York Times.
