JAPANESE IMMIGRATION.
How American Threats Dlsplease
the Mikado's Subjects.

YOKOHAMA, May 22.-Anxiety in
international matters Is just now GEN.
tering upon the Pacific Coast of Amer
lea, the anti-Japanese feeling there en-
gendered. owing to the recent great in
fux Of the islanders occasioning much
press comment. The situation as to
British Columbia excites comparatively
little alarm, as it is believed that the
Government there will maintain it's
strong stand against any restrictive
measures. But much fear Is felt lest
the supposed exigencies of the coming
election in the United States will lead
to hostile action in the way of putting
an embargo upon the entrance of ORR
entails generally.
1t Is needless to say that any measure
which would class the Japanese with
the Chinese would deal the severest
blow at the friendly relations which
have always existed between Japan
and the United States and would seri-
ously imperil the now rapidly increas.
ing commercial interests so important
to both countries. Not only is II fac'
that the Japanese are almost as differ

from the Turks. but also there 1.

official action of the United States tn
result would be disastrous In the ex
treme. and it would be many years be

1t may be said also with perfect trut
that there is no real cause for alarm
even on the part of the Pacific Coas
states. The present influx of Japanes
is merely temporary and abnorms

PRETORIA, June S, 5:3s q. IN.
The occupation of the town pass

were the pinks!
But what were these glories to Miss
Martha herself. in her gray silk gown
with the Honiton lace and the garnet
brooch, with her gray hair crimped
and her hands decorated with two
modest diamonds? What a lady!
What mistress of a fine occasion!
Really. it was a great hour! But 1t
may be that the thing which made
her happiest-even happier than the
presence of the Rev. Mr. Ellison-was
the fact that close beside her in his
Sunday best, with a smile of content

between his surprisingly beautifui
aunt and the ounce preserves.

sympathetic little man, and he knew
something of the story of Miss Ses-
sions' life. and understood by a sort
of intuition that she was cropping for
her individual form of expression. To
have the minister to tea was her
dream-and the lawyer reflected that
each human creature is entitled to his
own particular sort of dream.
But he was entirely unprepared for
the decision with which this hitherto
patient woman acted

said. I'll put on my bonnet and go

first time in its existence.
Your family will be much inter-
ested in your good fortune" said the
lawyer kindly. But Miss Sessions
smiled an enigmatical smile and made
no reply.
That evening when the family sat
in the drawing room, Aunt Martha, to
the amazement of every one, entered
and took seat as one having some
thing to say. Every one looked up
in surprise and waited. They knew
the occasion could not be an ordinary
one. She told her news with dignity.
There was a gasp and the face OF
Sarah Witherspoon turned scarlet.
"Of course. you will not permit such
an unjust thing to happen!" she cried.
1T has always been my expectation
that l would be Uncle Fredericks

Here is the autobiography of an
oyster. OF course, you know what an
autobiography is. 1t is the story of a
mans life written by himself. The
oyster writes: Il am born without Jaws

er and heart. In each year of my life

THE OLD BOOKS.

They are gray with the gray of ages.
Borrowed, and begged and sold;
Thumb-marked of saints and sagcs
In the scholarly days of old.
Rose leaves prest for a lover
Rest in their pages dim,
Though silent centuries cover
All that is left of him.
And l feel in the lbrary's shadows,
With this ghostly company,
The breath of forgotten meadows
And the centuries over me-
And when twilight bells are calling
When the day with its strlfes is Ger
There are ghostly footsteps falling
Faint on the library floor.
Singers, and saints and sages-
In the fame of a name we trust,
But time will cover our pages,
AS even our tombs, with dust
For here, in the library shadows.
Where the famed and fameless be,

But Martha interrupted him and

she said II know what you will sug-

The town was all agog over the ac-

And at the end of three months she
was settled in her own home. She
sat before her own fire, looked about
at book-lined walls, smiled at the pic
lures, for which she had always
longed. and by touching the little bell
at her hand, could summon her white
capped maid, who was delighted to
serve her. She could look with happy
eyes at her own gold-banded china,
and have the pleasure of once a week

People buy comb honey" said a
man from the country, believing that
the fact that it is sealed by the hon
est little bee precludes the possibility
of fraud. The fact is that the bees Of

nothing the liyelong summer but pack
glucose into their hives from an open
barrel that is left standing close by.
The bee will not search fragrant flow

amount of pure honey when he can
there is plenty of glucose handy. and
instead of one pound of pure honey
they aid the bees in putting ten pounds
of glucose on the market. Human in
genuity has not devised way for
making and sealing the honeycomb, or
the bee would be dispensed with alto
gether. In handling the glucose the
bees give it honeyish flavor, and IL
you complain to the bee man that 1t
is not as sweet and sticky as 1t should
be he will tell you that 1t is the early
crop and that the heavy rains make it
thin. | know a man who keeps fifty
hives of bees on the roof of his store
in the city, and by hustling up plenty
of glucose he gets enough honey out
of the buzzing slaves to do a whole

at honeysuckle if they happened to
