WASHINGTON, Feb 5.-The story
sent out from Washington to the effect
that Japanese residents in Hawaii would
become citizens Of the United States,
entitled to franchise, or that they would
lied that is enjoyed by Europeans i'm
migrating to this country, is wholly er-
roneous. The fear of Hawairs becom-
ing a Mongolian state, sending Mongo-
liam senators and representatives to
congress, is dispelled by Senator Davis
and Assistant Secretary of State Cridler,
who have fully investigated the matter.
From their statements it appears that
no matter whether Hawaii be annexed or
not, no Japanese can become citizen Of
the United States. In fact, no Asiatic,
unless a white person." can be natural
lied under our laws.
Senator Davis said that there is not
the slightest foundation for the state
ment. He also stated that there is moth
ing in the treaty of 1895, which goes into
effect in 1899, to permit any Japanese to
become naturalized citizen. The
clause of the treaty which has been as
sumed to permit naturalization of the
Japanese has, he says, no bearing on the
subject.
Assistant Secretary of State Cridler
fully investigated the question today,
and finds abundant precedent to sustain
the contention that the Japanese cannot
become naturalized citizens of this coun-
try. July 9th, 1894, Judge Colt of the
circuit court of Massachusetts, in the
case of the application of Shabata Saito
(Japanese) for naturalization, decided
against the applicant. He stated that
Japanese, like Chinese, belonged to the
Monaghan race, and that the question
presented was whether they were in
cluded within the term white person. IT
He states in his decision that after care
full consideration he was of the opinion
that they were not so included, and that
the application must therefore be de-

The man was found in a large tree,
into which he had climbed for honey.
His climbing was like that of a monkey,
and in coming down he applied his soIes
to the bark. The tail is not the only
popularity of the race, for their ankle
bones are extraordinarily developed, so
as to resembele the spurs of roosters.

Putting ones head to the chest of the

HAS AN AEOLIAN HEART
MAN WITH A MUSICAL CARDIAC
ORGAN IN CHICAGO
Edward Lewis Interior Is Full of
Sweet Sounds, but the Doctors
Call Them Swan Song

The man who has music in his soul re-
tired from Chicago yesterday in utter
confusion,
About the same time a man with a
bona-fide musical heart appeared in
the snowdrifts Of North Clark street to
watch the fight of his discounted rival.
The former left no address behind, but
the latter has modest dwelling place at
252 Division street.
His name is Edward Lewis, and he
carries about with him heart that
measures by II inches and weighs near
ly four pounds But he is not carrying
about such an uncomfortable, shaky
load just for a test of endurance. 1t plays
him pretty and changeful tunes while
he walks. This is better, he says, than
hearing the music box while you wait.
Lewis discovered bis cardiac harmony
producer through an attack of dyspep-
sa. Rather, Chicago physician did.
This was three years ago, after he had
been in a New York hospital for six
weeks, and had been given up by the
wise medical savants of the metropolis.
TOLD TO MAKE HIS PEACE
One day particularly bright physi-
cian-as physicians go in New York
entered Lewis ward and said: young
man, you have four days to live. You
have strange and uncanny malady
which is humping your ribs out and
your life away. We give you up; make
your peace with the world and try to
rest, for it has appeared to us who have
attended you that any excitement lends
to your breathing a peculiar musical
sound which may well be termed a
funeral march"
Then the wise one departed. And sc
did Lewis, as soon as he could evade
doctors and nurses. He rushed to the
nearest depot and bought ticket for
Chicago. Here he was treated by DIR. A.
M. Corwin, demonstrator of physical di-
agnosis at Rush Medical college. This
physician, in exploring about Lewis in
ternals with an X-ray, or, at least, rum
maging around in some equally scientific
way, ran upon the great, big, aortic
music box. He was astounded, for he
had never heard of so much heart in man
or woman. Here was a case for Chicago
to be proud of. The largest-hearted
,man in the world resides in Chicago.
More than that, he left New York be-
cause his great big heart was not ap-
preciated in the east.
HE BECAME BETTER
When Lewis discovered his singing
heart he was in poor health He took nc
more medicine and soon picked UP. DR.
Corwin advised him to go about the
country and act as a specimen among
the medical fraternity. This hint was
acted upon, and since leaving Chicago
eighteen months ago Lewis has beer
