THE AUDIENCE LIKED IT.

"The song that touched their hearts"
is as old as the hills, almost. The
leading man in "The Dazzler" combi-
nation, which has just closed a sue
cessful engagement, made a big hit
every night with his bicycle song. He
never failed to bring down the house
when he reached the verse telling
about the good qualities of the Sterl-
ing bicycles. The audiences were all
ready to hear a good word said about
these wheels, and heartily encored the
singer each night. The song was al
most as much of hit as the Sterl-
ing wheels have always been. Pacific

been but two naval vessels built here for
that nation, but the government looks
upon these as among the most valuable in

This subject and other naval matters con-

United States were discussed at consider

mander Ichibei Mori. who arrived on the
kns1iu Maru last week on his way TO

has an intense admiration for all things
American. He has been a close student Of
affairs this side OF the Pacific ever since
Japan won in the war with China and be-
gan TO develop her fighting resources. and
says that the same sentiment prevails
among all his people. The result will be
the cementing of closer relations, and the
increasing OF commerce between the two
countries
