A YnnthfuI Master of Finance.

One of the cadets of a northwestern military academy. but who lives in Chicago, has convinced his father that he is destined to a brilliant business career 1t is all owing to letter that the young man wrote a short time ago. It appears that the father had prom ised the boy he should have. any sort of a watch he wanted at the close of the present school term. Nothing more was heard about the watck Intil the father received a letter that ran
 about like this: Dear Father:-I have been looking at watches lately and have decided that the kind I want will cost you about $350. As a watch of this value Is hardly of the sort for a boy of Is to carry, and as I will not need watch till after leave school, wish to make this suggestion: Prob ably you are hard Up and do not wish to spend $350 for a watch at this time. Four years from now, when I leave school. watches will be cheaper. and it is likely that you can then buy the same watch for $50. Now the interest on s350 for four years (simple inter est-I am willing to let you have the benefit of the compound at 6 per cent will be sS4. If you will send me the $84 now you need not buy the watch till after I leave school. Tn this way you will have the use of the S266 for four years, and at the end of that time the watch will only cost you $50; s150 plus $S4 is $234, or $116 less than what the watch will cost you now So, you see, by this plan you will make clear profit on this transaction of $t16 Your loving son.

 In the California tbeater, San Fran
 cisco, the other night, Otto Kawakami
 and Nine Yacco and their company
 of rising Japanese actors and ac
 tresses' appeared for the first time in
 America, in no less than four different
 pieces. At first sight and sound the
 native Japanese drama is rather a diff
 ficu.t problem It's tragedy does not
 make serious dent in the American
 auditor, and it's comedy does not strike
 him as the most joyous thing in the
 world. The Japanese actor, one finds expresses pathos though his nose; he-
 roics, in blind staggers, and humor in acrobatic fip-faps. He snuf1es when
 he is saddest. And as there was
 great deal of sadness in the first two pieces presented last night, there was a deal of snuf1ing. Our Japanese townfolk filled the gallery and seemed
 to find delight in these nasal special.
 ties. but the people downstairs didn't appear to know just how to take them. The plays are childishly primitive, and
 with the aid of the arguments" print ed in the programme, quite inte11igib1e The first one, "The Duel" displays beautiful scenery and costumes and diverting sword fight. The second, sKosunoki," is full of fights, during which the actors employ themselves in many realistic tumbles from a pile of stage rocks some fifteen feet in height. Hypnotism also seems to have a place in this piece, as one mo- tices that many Japs fall down van quished at the mere glance of the hot eyed hero. The most interesting in plot is The Temjye of Dojoji, which is built around the Japanese legend of the bell i'll which the lovers hide and are cremated by the jealous woman's wrath. In this Mme Yaeeo, who i'm personates the vengefui rival, executes a dance that is full of unique steps and poses. The performance closes wit. what is archIy entitled Dewey Day Celebration on the Pine F'ringed Shores of Miho" Here the Geisha dances are introduced with pleasing result. An other diversion that comes earlier in the programme is a song, accompanied by the characteristic Japanese fnstru- ment, the shamisen. The song itself Is long-Yoiced falsetto and painful to the ears, but the accompaniment is in. teresting from technical standpoint at least. Cut to practical proportions. this Japanese show ought to have curious interest for all play-goers. But in its present shape the Jap auditors seem to have most of the fun. As a picture, 1t is well worth taking in, the scenery is striking and the costumes are splendid. It is quite like an ani- mated Japanese screen.

sUlrAN.s GIFTS TO UNCLE SAM
Sent to President Van Buren-Caused
 No End of Trouble.

No End of Trouble.
 On the seventh day of the month of SchaWwai, in the year 1254 of the Hegira-Which is the Arabian way of writing Dec. 9, 1839-the sultan of Oman, whose name was Seyyid Saooid, bin sultan, bin ahmeud, addressed a gracious letter to "his excellency, Mar tin Van Buren, president of the United States of America" in which he in formed the president that he had sent him by the royal ship Sultanee a few trif1es as a token of friendship and good feeling, says the Ladies' Home Journal. These trifles consisted of two Arabian horses and their groom, one bottle of altar of roses, two pieces If gold, five demijohns of rose water. one Persian carpet, one gold ornament with silk tassel, four camel's-hair shawls, one gold-mounted sword. two large pearls, one bottle Of diamonds. one gold snuffbox studded with prec- ious stones and one box of mixed pearls and diamonds. Under the con- stitution the president is prohibited from accepting a personal gift from any foreign state or power, and as the sultan's gifts had arrived in New York and the commander of the Sultanee would not leave the country without presenting his masters offerings, an embarrassing complication was the outcome. The matter was finally re- ferred to congress, and after three months of correspondence, red tape, diplomacy and legislation the sultan's Christmas presents were finally ac- cepted. and then the president was put to the trouble of selling the horses, the shawls and the rose-water, while Uncle Sam was given the further trouble of finding a suitable place to store the remaining gifts, and was af- terward put to great expense in cap turing the thief who carried off the en- tire collection in bag, and was only caught after long chase.
