IN sAMPAN AND JlNRIKsHA.
Unique Sails and Drives Around Benu-
tifuI Japnn-First Ride
Memorable.

One of the most interesting coun-
tries for its modes of conveyance. both
on sea and shore, is Japan. says writer
in the Youths Companion. The junks
and the sampans and the jinrikshas all
seem to partake of the artistic char.
acter of this artistic people. Nothing
is more charming than the white
winged feet that one sees as one
steams into the harbor of Yokohama,
after the long voyage across the Pa
cific. The sampan men, in their long
kimonos, covered with odd Japanese
characters that tell for what firm they
are working are picturesque sights in
deed as they stand up in their little
boats bidding for custom. With long
oar at the stern of their craft they
soon scull the passenger ashore. and
here hundred brawny men-horses in
blue blouses and bare legs are waiting
with their exaggerated baby CARRIAGES
to carry him whithersoever he will.
One does not soon forget the first
ride in a jinriksha. 1t is SO comfort

take your directions. and GO prancing
off at six-mile gait. 1t was this rare
combination of man and horse, of speed
and intelligence, that delighted me
when l first made the acquaintance of
Che modern Centaur.
He would not balk or shy or get skit-
tish. He would know piece of white
paper from ghost. He had no fear
of the railway trains. He did not have
to be watched and hauled this way
and that by bit and bride, and if he
was not sure of the road he simply
stopped and asked the way of fellow
Centaur. TO be sure, the thought at
first occurred TO me that it was de-
grading occupation he was engaged in,
and that l ought not to let fellow
mortal draw me as If he were beast
of burden.
"But why should he not draw me as
we'll as barrel of -four or q sack of
potatoes" ! reasoned.

There had been some talk of Indians

the bloodiest devils that God ever let

Precedent of Police chiefs.

Major Richard Sylvester, the newly
elected president of the National AS
sociation of Police Chiefs has an
interesting career with no lack of va
riety in incident and locality. Long
before he became engaged in directing
the police force OF Washington, d. c.,
he had had an insight into the life
and work of policemen from the view
point of a newspaper reporter. No
vantage ground outside the force itself
is better than that of the reporter for
acquiring knowledge of the strength
and weaknesses Of men in their char
acter as guardians of the peace. Chief
Sylvester knows just how to deal with
his men because he has never forgot
ten his early association with the
police in bis capacity as a searcher for
news. In addition to all of this he has
executive ability of n high order and
very fine conceptions of citizenship and
the duties of the police officer to the
civilian. For sixteen years Major Syl-
vester has wisely ruled the city police
of the national capital. He was born

MORGAN ORGANIZING BILLION
DOLLAR ANGLO.AMERICAN BANK


New York, June 1O-According to
the London correspondent of the
World, 1t is reported tht J. p. Nor
gan is arranging for the establishment
of u great Anglo-American bank, with
n capital of $1,OOO,OOO,OOO. 1t is said
that it is proposed to abolish all of
the principal financial agencies and
banks already engaged in Anglo
American business.
The proposed institution, 1t is said,
is intended to be the principal agency
for the already vast and rapidly grow
ing banking transactions between
Europe and America.
Mr.. Morgan is understood to have
associated with him in the stupendOus
undertaking not only the principal cap
italists who aided him in the organ
ization of the United States Steel Cor.
poraton, but also the Rothschilds. The
World adds:
Several times since the panic of
May it has been reported in Wall street
that Mr.. Morgan intended to organize
a bank with $1O0,OOO,OOO capital
These reports have been invariably de-
MED at the offices of ]. p. Morgan &
Co.
The creation of bank with a capi.
talization of billion dollars is an un-
dertaking of a nature so colossal that
nothing approaching it has ever been
limited at before.
