When You Meet in Japan.

Nothing is more amusing than to
watch two acquaintances saluting in
the streets of a japanese town. As
they come in sight of each other they
slacken their pace, and approach with
downcast eyes and averted face, as il
neither was worthy of beholding the
other; then they bow low, so as to bring
the face on level with the knees. on
which the palms of the hands are
pressed
A succession of kissing sounds is next
made by drawing in the breath between
the closed teeth, interspersed with 4
series of complimentary phrases uttered
with great vOlubility in sort Of under
toned falsetto. each trying to Outdo his
friend in rapidity and extravaganza OF
language while the palms are diligently
rubbed
At last the climax is reached and each
endeavOrs to give the precedence to the
other. For some moments, perhaps
for full minute. the polite contest con-
tinues; then the ceremony abruptly
ends, as if the difficulty We're capable
of none but a brusque solution. and tho
two pass on hurriedly. with look of
extreme relief.-BrOOklyn Citizen.

Never Gives up Its Dead.

Lake Superior never gives Up its dead.
Whoever encounters terrible Disaster
happily infrequent in the tourist season
and goes down in the angry, beauti-
full blue waters, never comes up again.
From those earliest days when the dar
ing voyagers in their trim birch bark
canoes skirted the picturesque shores
Of this noble but relentless lake down to
this present moment, those who have
met their deaths in mid-SuperiOr still
lie at the stOHe-paved bottom. 1t may
be that, SO very cold is the water. some
Of their bodies may have been pre-
served through the centuries. Some
times, not far from shore, the bodies of
people who have been wrecked from
fishing smacks or from pleasure boats
Overtaken by a cruel squall have been
recovered. but only after the most hero
ic efforts with drag net or by the diver.
Once on a trip down the lakes met u
clergyman, who, as we passed a point
of land some miles before entering the
narrowing Of the lake at the 500, point
gonna went down on the reef some years
ago. and as he looked. he said slowly:
Il was at the funeral of one man who
went down with her, and the only rea-
son his body is not at the bottom to-
day with the other thirty-eight that
were lost is because it was caught in
the timbers of the vessel and could not
sink nk"-Minneapolis Tribune.

Where They Belong.

1t Is reported that the Hawaiian
planters class themselves with the Re
publican party of the United States in
politics. OF course. that's where they
belong. The Hawaiian planters have
been accustomed on their plantations
to the form of slavery known us con-
tract labor. whereby the worker is
bound To servitude for 4 certain num-
ber of years. and finds himself, rs a
rule, compelled by circumstances to
renew his contract when his term ex-
pires. This means a degraded form of
labor, irrespective of race or color, to
which the Democratic party is utterly
opposed, but which is right i'm line with
Republican policy, and the plans Of
trust and mOnOpOlies, fostered and pro-
tected by the Republican party.
The degradation Of American labor is
as much principle of Repuhlicanism
rs projection for the American monOp-
Olist. Nothing would suit the Rcpub-
lican party better than to have the
white wOrkingman reduced TO a condi-
ton of servitude similar to that of the
yellow wOrkingman In Hawaii, and the
planters in our Pacific possessions nat
urally link themselves with the political
organization which favors the system
they would like to maintain.

Sticking to a Good Position.

The Republican party once suffered
an overwhelming defeat because Re

billion Of dollars during the two years
for which 1t made annual appropria-

A Reactionary Period.

The student who traces the history
Of Republicanism through the ages will
not fail to note the reactionary ten
dency at the close Of the nineteenth
century. He will look in vain for a
sign that the old love of independence
which was so conspicuous as the cen
tury was coming in was still burning.
He will turn to the living and prosper
Gus republics to gather from the official
records some evidence that Republican
ism was the common cause of all lib
erty lovers. He will find no such evil
dence. He will read upon the records
of the old and proud mOnarchies proof
that In the courts Of Europe the de-
structiOn of young republics caused un-
bounded delight. The black page will
not be illuminated by any record that
in any republic anywhere there was
any protest against the assassination
of Republicanism.
But the cause Of human liberty is
not lost because of a few reverses. Ma
tions come and go, but the principles
of equality and justice remain un-
changed. That which was right in
17I6 has not become wrong in 1900.
The inalienable rights Of man are not
modified by the color Of his skin or oh
liberated because he happens to live
In a distant continent or on an isolated
island. The making and unmaking of
nations is but an incident in the on
ward march Of civilizatiOn.-Sioux
