The degree Of civilization Of n nation
may be known infalllbly by It's cleanl.
ness. In race or individual, the dlrtl-
or the more degraded, as a general
principle. The japanese are the clean
est OF an the oHentals They battle Ike
white men, the whole people. II IS
true there are small rlcetles Of our
ways 10 which they do not catch on"
For instance, IL is not easy 10 make
your jap table waiter understand why
he should not wipe the perspiratlon
from his heated brow with the same
linen cloth with which he pllIshes your
cups and knives. But little thing Ike
that Is OF no consequence in the orient.
You get used to worse, yea, much
worse
a feature that lmprcsses the foreign
er strongly Is the number Of young men
In japanese government councils and
In high command IN army and navy.
Among their important officials almost
the only really old man Is Count Mat
sukata, minister Of finance. He has q
shrewd. Chinese looking face and prob
ably knows how TO dlsburse the yen TO
best advantage Marquis Yamagata,
the prime minister is no more than
middle aged
Lieutenant II. sato who brought the
crew Of the torpedo boat destroyer Axe
bono from Yokohama to London to
place them on board their vessel, which
was built on the Thames, Is a good type
Of young Japan In the navy and one Of
rs rising men as well. When scarcely
q, he bore his part IN the Chlno-Jap-
anese war and distinguished himself 50
brilliantly that he won both medals and
promotion. During the long voyage
from Yokohama 10 London Saito kept
his men up TO their physical exer-
cises admirably. Whatever tended Ia
strengthen them bodily and make them
regardless OF danger or hardship, that
they tackled in their daily drill What
ever In japanese history recounted H.
lustrious victories or deeds Of daring by
national heroes, tending 70 MI them
with enthusiasm to fight their country's
battles and die Tor her, this they had In
song and recitation.

Hunting used to be called the sport
Of kings but not many Of the modern
crowned heads keep up the old tradi-
ton. The car occasionally assists at

he goes only out Of politeness The
Prince of Wales is a very good shot and

The emperor Of Germany hunts and

else The king OF Sweden never touches

The king OF the Belglans has shot
only once In his whole NE and then IN

the trouble Of going I'm search OF game.
So he sat in his armchair and potted
at a lot Of rabbits Jet loose from a bag
IN front Of him. When the smoke
cleared away and his majesty called for
his bag. he had 10 be told that all that

T~HE eyes Of the world OF the pres
ent moment are on little Japan,
the Great Britain Of the orient.
Across the mountains Of Korea
the little Jap and the big Russian are
Elarlne omnously az each other. That
the land Of the chrysanthemum should
defy the great and august Russian en-
plre seems a strange and almost a
laughable thing a hundred Of their
little Japans could be dropped on the
territory o. the great White car and
still not blot Il OF the map. But the
Jap Is a belngerent little fellow who
has had his FIRST intoxicating taste o.
blood and for several years now ne has
been getting ready TO nght. He has
kept English shipyards busy building
batteshlps for his navy. he has drilled
his army and trained his navy and dur
Ing the last ten years he has seen a new
national spirit spring up IN his country
Unless the great powers OF the world
combine In some movement 20 guaran-
tee the political autonomy OF Korea il
may be that the open door on the Asiat-
lc coast shall become a thing OF the
past Unless that neck Of coveted land
stretching down from Manchurla is pre-
served as the buffer state which ma
ture designed Il 10 be, Russia and Ja-
pan. II one IS 20 Judge boy existing signs,
are going 10 fight Tor lts possession.
II will be a bitter struggle. Russia,
Il must be remembered. will never feel
safe with the Jap In possession Of Ko-
rea simply because that would bring
the oriental 10 the Yalu river, which
lies strategically between Port Arthur
and Vladlvostok. II, on the other hand,
Russian soldiers once occupied Korea,
the officers Of japan would be able from
their own shores 10 sight with their
glasses the advance hosts OF a rival
power. SO II will be a fight 10 the fin
ish before either shall yield In this Ko-
rean problem.
Japan has always banked on her ma
Wy, and a wonderful young navy II ls.
There Is but one word for Japan's coll
lection Of fighting ships, and that word
Is miraculous" Thlrty-one years ago
the navy Of this little nation consisted
Of two old steamships, one an antique
and wornout American battleship, and
the other an ordinary, small renovated
tramp steamer. Today IN power, IN
rate OF speed and In the skin with which
they are handled, the ships Of Japan
are second TO none In the world. Even
IN number the Japanese navy stands
eighth on the list Of nayles Of the world.
Every month, too. new ships are belng
added as fast as they can be bullt. and
at the end Of next year Il Is estimated
that the japanese navy will stand
fourth among the great fighting fleets
OF the world.

song, as though a British tar had tried
once on a time TO teach the good old
Scotch air 10 a Japanese seaman, with
the result that, while the Brton dld his
best and the Jap did his best, each
with the best Intentions, they were new
or able quite to get together IN their
music. The Jap must have got carl
cature Of the genuine song firmly fixed
In his mind ana IN his turn taught II
instead OF the real thing 20 bis brethren,
and so Il Is handed down from genera
ton 10 generation,
The present emperor Of Japan himself
has written a patriotic afr. which nat
urally became a national song. This It
is common Tor the crews Of naval yes-
sells to sing with vim as the conclud-
ing part Of their evening drill, marching
around and around In rank meanwhile.
Enthusiasm and lung power without
stint are manifest IN the singing
II. however as u race the Japs lack
ear and musical voice, In one way they
have cheek enough to make UP FOR
both. DO not understand that It Is an
offensive way Tor Il IS not. Your jap
simply desires TO learn things. And II
one wishes to know a thing, the most
direct way 20 learn q rs 10 ask about il,
! is II not? So the little brown man asks,
undeterred by considerations Of BASH
fulncss that might make a white man
hesitate. Whatever he wishes 10 find
out he simply asks concerning Il, from
a woman's age 10 the latest electrical
! appliance for steering gear or the sal
airy Of a newspaper man. He does not
boggle In the least at Ii Hung Changs
| fayorlte questions. How old are you
and How much are you worth?
There is no conscious impertlnence IN
/ the questioning. The minds OF this
most interesting and most capable OF
all the oriental peoples are brilliant and
eagerly acqustye Of knowledge. They
are children in their desire to get infor.

determination to utilize It for their own
gain. Well born and educated young

They cannot understand a theology Of

persons should trouble their heads with
theology az all In Japan a man has
commonly no religion TN he gets Old

that Is not SO easy because formerly

OF western Europe. The longest regular
steamer route IN the world Is that of
the japanese ships which go from Yoke
hama % Antwerp, touching at ports
along the way The complete round
voyage from Yokohama back 20 the
same port occupies almost FIVE months,
In the passenger ships that sail 10 the
white mans countries the jap is shrewd
enough 10 place white captains and
leading officers, usually British, arguing
correctly that travellers from Europe
and the States would scarcely care 90
risk their necks upon a steamer manned
entirely by japanese But there IS al
ways a large contingent of japanese as
dstants and seamen on board also,
Learning the business so 10 speak, and
no man need doubt but the white ON
GERS win be replaced by native ones as
fast as this can be done safely Japan
has set her soul to becoming a great
maritime power.
Although the average intelligent
young or middle aged Jap cannot be
said TO have much more religious creed
than an owl, he Is, Notwithstanding, not
