A GLIMPSE OF THE JAPANESE

Mrs. Hugh Fraser the author, widow OF an
English diplomat and sister of Marion Crawford
says OF her life in Japan, to which her husband
was Minister from Great Britain:
The absence of snobbishness and kindred vices
in Japan impresses itself very clearly upon one

precious; honor and selfrespect the love of their

Miss Kate Barbour sends the following ingenious
composition. which she says. appeared in PhIa-
delphia paper many years ago. II may be read in
three different ways. First let the whole be read
in the order IN which II Is written: second, read
downward the lines the left OF the comma
which Is in the middle OF every line; third. read
downward the lines on the right % the middle
comma. BY the first method II Will be observed
that the Revolutionary cause is denounced, but is
is lauded In the other two:
Harkl bark! the trumpet sounds. the din Of wars

lated from the amount Of Inheritance tax
is only $32,00oe0O. This inheritance tax
amounts to $500 272, which has been paid
and receipted for by Comptroller Coler
This sum represents what was the prop
erty of Cornelius Vanderbilt in New York
but doesn't include the transfer tax on
the 100000 left to Cornelius Vanderbilt
by his father, William II. Vanderbilt,
with power of appointment. The estate
of Cornelius Vanderbilt was supposed to
have been worth at least S125 900, 900. AT
the time of Cornelius Vanderbilt's death
last September, Chauncey NJ. Depew es
timated that the entire estate was worth
so, 10000, but it was explained that this
was a most conservative estimate and
made only to assist those attempting to
get some idea of the amount of the resi-
duary estate coming to Alfred. Accord
ing to the terms of the Vanderbilt will,
in addition to the S1,25O000 received from
the trust fund left by his father, and
II, 100000 from the trust fund left for the
use of his mother, Alfred received a d.
rect inheritance from hts father of
S.. 100000. Cornelius Jr., being practically
disinherited. Alfred was also bequeath-
ed all that remained after the distribu-
ton of the specific amounts. Out OF this
portion Alfred gave to Cornelius 5000
900. The estimate OF Senator Depew put
the residuary estate at s3450).0 600. In the
just completed the amount
is much less, but no record of the inheri-
lance tax from this part Of the estate
will be made until Alfred reaches the
age of %.
Because Of the government war tax
the filing Of the report of the appraisers
In the surrogate's office has been de-
ferred. This tax is II per cent on all
estates above s1.O00Oo0. Action in the su-
preme court of the United States Is pend
ing testing the consttutionality Of this
federal transfer tax. II is contended that
the power Of taxing inheritances IS vest
ed in the state and that congress has
no authority TO impose the tax.
