A NEW BOOK ABOUT JAPAN.

Mr.. Staffor Ransome is the author of
the --latest book on Japan. In this
book, THE Transition of Japan, ne
outlines the political and social changes
of the people. He restates many OF the
facts which are now commonly known
regarding the Japanese, but does not
form the same opinions regarding
them as other writer's have done. he
believes that they will show, In the
future. large practical knowledge IN
dealing with industrial matters. in
spite of the belief of many writer's that
they are a frivolous people, and can
not use the knowledge they have ac-
uuired from the Occidental nations
The same charge of frivolity has been
made against the French by the En-
glish people for hundred years, put
the French people appear to make
themselves seriously conspicuous be-
fore Europe, and they have solved
someiof the social problems much more
intel,igentlv than the English have
done.
Mr.. Ransome thinks that the Jap
anese have no love for the foreigners,
and while they are polite to them,
have no desire to become socially
friendly. This is true, just as 1t has
been true for centuries that the people
of one civilized nation never become
socially friendly with the people OF
other civilized nations. In the rural
districts of the United States an En-
glishman is still regarded with suspi-
cion. and would not be trusted with
even a minor political office, While
Frenchman would be, as rule, black
balled socially and politically.
The Japanese have treated foreigners
with unusual courtesy, but the tourists
wanty the Japanese 10 be friendly IN a
sense,which European nations decline
to show towards each other. 1t can
not be expected that people, VINO
have a civilization of their own OF
which they are proud, and are governed
by active traditions and habits OF
thought, will uproot them more quickly
than the Irish and Germans Will ATM!

NEARING THE END
TRIAL OF THE BROGAN MURDER
CASE WILL CLOSE TONIGHT.
The Last witness Examined This Morn
ing-The Lawyers are Now
Pleading.

The first witness to testify yesterday
afternoon was Chris Knabe, who said he
was in Silvertooth's saloon when Brogan
came in and asked him to have drink,
which he dill. While he was there three
or four men came in, among them For
rester. Knabe then went across the
street to Dial's saloon. Shortly after,
some one said there was row over at
Silvertooth's ,and on hooking over he saw
through the window chair raised in
the air. He gave several dimensions
and drew diagram Of the building. He
was com mpetent witness, as he was eln-
ployed in constructing the building.
Garrett McCullom was next called,
and testified that he was across the street
at Patterson's store and heard the rat
tling of chairs and looked yer in Silver
tooth's and caughta glimpse through
right-hand window of chair raised in
the air. He started across the street,
and when he saw the chair raised he
hesitated and then when about one
third way across the street stopped a
moment and saw a man in front of
Kirchheimer's blacksmith shop, who
was going up the street at lively gait.
He was tall man, but witness did not
know whether he had on 8. hat and coat
or not. He thought the man went
around the corner of the building.
Geo. E. Patterson then took the stand
and testified that he was in his place OF
business at the time of the trouble in
| Silvertooth's saloon and was shaving a
man. He heard the noise and on look
ing over saw through the left hand win
dow chair raised in the air with the
bottom part mp. Witness stated that he
could not see who held the chair as the
panel of the window was too high. He
did not see anyone come ont of the
saloon. He drew diagram of the front
of the building which was submitted as
evidence.
Joe Aubin. commonly called Slim,
was the next witness and testified that
he came to town from Trout creek with
Thos. Hamilton about 4 o'clock on the
afternoon of the killing. He met For
rester for the first time that evening.
Said he was in Silvertooth's e saloon when
4 Brogan was killed, and had just CAME
from Dial's saloon with Chevis and saw
Forester in there. Asked several tc

[Aubinl grabbed Gumm who jerked
away from him and Aubin fell to the
floor against chair. He caught hold
Of the chair and tried to raise himself
when Farquer McRae pushed him over
the chair. He next saw Brogan on the
bed. Also that someone went out the
front door but did not know who it was.
Witness stated he did not remember of
saying This is hell,'' but did recall
having asked Tor some sheep-herders
lemonade. On cross-examination he
said he did not cay $50 to it, boys"
He had drank with Brogau before, and
had never had any trouble with him.
Further, that FORESTER came in Silver

Cheyis). Witness does no. remem ber

ing him to drink. He acknowledged he
was pretty full. Also that he did not
know that Brogan and FORESTER had
had any trouble when he went into
Silvertooth's. He had met Chevis only
once before, and that was on the pre-
vious 29th day of October. He did not
hear Gumm say a word to anybody.
Witness grabbedGumm by the shoulder.
but he jerked away. Aubin also said
that he was convicted at Walla Walla
of the crime of assault with dangerous
weapon.
Raymond Chevis, better known as the
Spaniard, was called next, and testified
that he was in Antelope on Nov. 9TH last
and saw Forester, whom he knew be-
fore. He was in Silvertooth'a at the
time of the trouble, he and Aubin hav :
ing come in three or four minutes before.
Forester came,in about the same time.
Brogan and Gumm refused to drink, but
do not remember what was said, but
Brogan made some remark" He looked
around and saw Forester down and
Brogan was coming toward the door
near where Forester was. Witness
caught him and said "Mr. Brogan, you
dent want TO have any trouble" He
jerked away from him and the next he
knew he (Brogan) WAS on the bed.
Witness heard somebody say he was
dead.
E. j. Glisan was then put upon the
stand, and testified that after the trouble
with Gumm and Forester near the
blacksmith shop he and Forester eat on
the running gear of a wagon and had q
talk, after which they went to Dial's sa
loon, where witness left Forester. He
remembered seeing Slim in Dial's, but
was not positive as to whether the
