his feet. The weather was cold and
there was a blazing fire. He no more
saw the harm of toasting his unshod

Dom Paul had principles and stood by
them. Whenever his eye caught lady

TEE FOREIGNER IN JAPAN.
Change of Status i'm Official Circles
Within the Last Few
Years.

One Of the most interesting ques-
tons in consideration of present Japan
is the changed status of the foreigner.
To be a European or an American in
Japan twenty, ten, or even five, years
ago was to be a man of power and in
fuence. When foreigners were first adj
mitted to the empire the Japanese,
one of the shrewdest, most far-sight-
ed peoples of the world, adopted their
methods and their religion, hired them
as teachers, engineers and officers. Now,
according TO Japan in Transition,' the
first important book dealing entirely
with the new Japan, since they have
learned all the foreigners can teach
them in science, litera ture, art, war,
commerce, manufacturing, in short, in
all enterprises, they are RELOCATING their
instructors to the background with the
cry Japan for the Japanese" 1t was
thought at one time that Japan would
in time become Christian nation. The
author of Japan in Transition shows
that almost ali who accepted Christian
ity did so for the sake of the instruc-
ton which the missionaries alone could
give. In the army and navy the same
state of affairs exists. English and
German officers who fought for Japan
throughout the China war were dis
charged for the reason that the mill
tary schools which were founded
through their efforts have developed
frst-class officers. Everywhere the pol
icy Of discharging the foreigner as
soon as possible has been adopted, and
in a few years a foreigner in any kline
of an official capacity will be the ex-
ception. At present the ambassadors
of the powers are practically the only
foreigners who command and real re-
