Japanese Patriotism.

To die for his country is the highest
ambition of the japanese soldier or sea-
man For the japanese the dead come
back and tarrv for hundred years with
the living. There are no japanese dead
who do not return" says typical Japan
ese There are none who do not
Know the way. From China and from
Chosen. and out of the bitter sea. all
our dead have come back-all! They are
with US now. In every dusk they gather
to hear the bugles that called them
home. And they will hear them also
in that day when the armies of the Son
of Heaven shall be summoned against
Russia" The influence of such belief,
so fervently so passionately neld. upon
the national life Is difficult to exagser-
ate 1t stimulates to self-sacrifice: and
the fact that all the departed great ones
are held by every Japanese TO be at MS
side nerves the soldier to the utmost
heroism the statesman to sink self and
seek the nations interests This IS pre-
cisey the feeling which. as Capt. Hoenis
has pointed out in his ''Untersuchungen
uper die Taktik der Zukunft.' is needed
in the modern soldier. 1t is the ignorant
campaign waged by the missionaries
against this beautiful and not un-Chris-
tan belief In the actual presence of the
dead on earth that has so hampered their
work For Japan rightly feels that the
belief is one essential TO her national IRE
and to her military efficiency.-The Ma

THE ST. LOUIS STRIKE.
The Posse Comitatus Won't be Dis
charged as Yet.

81. LOUIS, MO, June 1S.-To-day was
by far the most uneventful in the history
of the street railway strike. This was
owing to the discontinuance OF all neSo-
tiations tending toward a settlement OF
th, controversy and to the utter absence
of trouble along the numerous routes OF
the Transit Company.
The strike has now passed into the
second stage of it's history, and the gen
eral BOYCOTT instituted by the American
Fedora ton OF Labor must tell the story.
A slight stir was caused during the day
by Sheriff Pohlmann, who proposed that
the posse comitatus, comprising 1900 clti-
zen soldiers, be discharged. A conference
of police and posse officials threw a
blanket on the sheriff's proposition by
empha tically declaring that the time was
not yet ripe for discharging the body.
The coroner's inquest to-day brought
out nothing of importance.
