.Netu Governmenf m Japan.

1t is only about two months since
the present Japanese cabinet was form
ed, and already one of its members,
Toru Hoshi, minister of communica-
ton. has resigned. 1t is limited also
that the resignation may hasten the
overflow of the cabinet as whole.
though the reasons for it seem to have
been personal rather than political, the
minister having become involved in
certain financial scandals.
Japanese cabinets never have been
long-lived. There have been nine of
them since 1885, with an average ten
ure of office of only twenty months.
That is not so bad, however, consider
ing that the government has been all
this time an experiment and that po-
litical parties are only imperfectly de-
veloped as yet. The principal force
in the direction of affairs aside from
the crown has been that of the old
clan leaders, and the opposition has
been generally represented by two sep
arate organizations. the progressists
and the liberals. In 1898 they man
aged to overcome their mutual distrust
SO far as to form both coalition and
ministry, but the latter was short
lived. 1t lasted just four months, and
then there was reaction which
brought in the cabinet of the Marquis
Yamagata, which continued in office
until October of this year, or during
term of twenty-five months.

STOCK MEN ALL GOING.

The fourth annual convention OF the
National Live Stock Association at
Salt Lake promises to be the largest
and most interesting gathering of
stockmen ever held in this country.
Salt Lake City is going to cover itself
with glory in the manner in which the
visitors will he entertained. The con-
vention will be held in the Assembly
hall of the Mormon church and grand
concert will be rendered the delegates
and visitors in the Tabernacle on the
first evening The programme of the
entertainment committee contemplates
events for each evening of the conven-
ton and after the convention adjourns.
there are excursions to the mines and
elsewhere. Colorado is going to send
large delegation and the Denver &
Rio Grande railroad will run a special
train, leaving Denver Sunday, January
13, which will reach Salt Lake City
the next day in time for the committee
meetings. The fare for the round trip
Springs or Pueblo and one fare from
other points in the state. Those con-
templating going should engage sleep
ing car accommodations at once. Write
to S. X. Hooper, general passenger
agent. Denver. or see any Rio Grande
ticket agent. 1t will be a delightful
midwinter trip, and no stockman who
is interested in the industry can af-
ford not to attend the meeting.

. Jury Musf Be Unanimous.

Colorado has provision in its con-
stitutiop allowing jury in a civil case
to consist of less than twelve men.
Under this provision the last legisla-
ture enacted law declaring that nine
men on jury of twelve would be suffi-
cient to render a verdict The Colo
RADIO supreme court has now declared
this law to be unconstitutional and
void, and it is probable that all cases
decided by iuries impaneled under this
law will have to be retired. The point
made by the court is that jury must
be unanimous. When the constitution
placed no restriction on the power of
the Legislature to provide for juries of
less than twelve members it did not
lay aside the old common law idea
that demands unanimity in a jury's
verdict. Thus, while the Colorado leg
islature can constitutionally make nine
men sufficient for jury, it cannot au
thorize nine members in a jury of
twelve to render verdict

The Chinese indemnify.

Sir Robert Hart. director of the
Chinese maritime customs. has writ
ten letter to the Pekin correspond
ent of the Paris Temps pointing out
how difficult it will be for China to
comply with demands for an enormous
indemnity. According to the terms of
the joint demand of the powers China
Will be called upon to pay money in
demnity to all the government, socie
ties, companies, and individuals that
suffered losses in the Boxer riots.
Though no definite total is named Sir
Robert Hart estimates that when the
multitudinous claims are presented
they may easily amount to s25OOOO.-
900. He justly remarks that it would
be difficult. If not impossible, to collect
such an indemnity from China in its
present crippled and disorganized con-
dition.

Steamships VIII Cross the Atlantic In
Forty-Eight Hours.

Fast electric ships crossing the

Watkins. Jr., of What May Happen in
the Next Hundred Years" in the La
dies Home Journal. The bodies of
these ships will be built above the
waves. They will be supported on run
ners. somewhat like those of II sleigh.
These runners will be very buoyant.
Upon their under sides will be
apcrtures for eNpclling jets of
air In this way a film of
air will be kept between them
and the waters surface. This film, to-
gether with the small surface of the
runners. will reduce friction against
the waves to the smallest possible de-
gree. Propellers turned by electricity
will screw themselves through both
the water beneath and the air above.
Ships with cabins artificially cooled
will be entirely tireproof. In storm
they will dive below the water and
there await fair weather."

he is once known, through him opening

circle of culture and loving hearts
and enthusiasm in dozen congenal
pursuits, and prejudices, perhaps. How
instantly and easily the bachelor
doubles his world when he marries,
and enters into unknown fellowship
of the to him continually increasing
company, which is known in popular
language as "all his wife's relations"
Near at hand, daily, no doubt, are

A NEW KINGS PLIGHT.
The Son of Garibaldi Says Victor Em-
manuel III. Is In a Peculiar
Position.

Ricciotti Garibaldi, who fought at
the side of his father, the great Gen.
Garibaldi, in the struggle for the lib
Grafton of Italy and in the Franco
German war, publishes an article in
the North American Review, in which
he explains the relative positions and
aims of the monarchical and republican
parties in Italy. The situation of the
monarchy in Italy, according to Sig.
Garibaldi's statement, must be per-
picking one, for the king cannot make
friends of his enemies without making
enemies of his friends. He says:
IF Victor Emmanuel III. remembers
that, if he wears the iron crown, it is
mainly owing to the popular elements
for history has revealed that the
Piedmontese school Of diplomats, with
Cavour at their head, looked upon the
struggle for the liberation and unity
Of Italy, rather as a means of aggran-
dizing the Piedmontese monarchy than
as a realization of high ideal, the re-
construction of great nationality, OF
which, in fact, they were rather afraid
and if he exercises the strength of
will he is said to possess to free his
crown from the state of bondage in
which il was under Humbert, and make
II take its true position of mediator be-
tween the different political schools,
using his influence and royal preroga-
tives in favor of those classes that most
need comfort and guidance, the mon
archy in Italy may yet have a long lease
of life, for patriotism is strong quail
| ity in the Italian heart, and he would
find sincere, if unexpected, support
from sources now hostile to
Linn and his crown. But, naturally, his
bitterest enemits will then be those
who have hitherto used the crown as
an instrument to further their own
ends, and who, looking upon his child
less condition as danger to the mon
archy, do not hide the possibility of his
being replaced by some other member
of his family. And it would be a curious
thing If the anti-monarchists should
one day be obliged to defend the crown,
acting on the principal that "a devil
you know is always better than one you
don't know"

WELL-MANNERED PEOPLE.
They Are Welcome Wherever They
Go and Add Much To the Real
Enjoyment of Life.

Good manners are more important at
home than elsewhere. AS they cannot
be put off and assumed, as garment,
we are able to form our opinion of
persons home manners by his manners
in society. AS rule what are called
company manners" are as easily dis
tinguishable as the counterfeit coin
from the pure gold. A beautiful be-
havior is better than beautiful form;
it gives a higher pleasure than statues
or pictures; it is the finest of the fine
arts. How well it is that no one class
has a monopoly of this finest of fine
arts" While favorable circumstances
no doubt render good manners more
common among persons moving in the
higher spheres of society, there should,
nevertheless. be no positive hindrance
to the poorest classes practicing good
manners toward each other. For what
are good manners? They are the art
of putting our associates at their ease.

ners as in conversation. Well-man-
nered people do not talk too much.
| They are careful to bear in mind the
meaning of the first syllable OF the
word conversation, con (with), that it
means talking with another; they alb
stain from lecturing, and they are as
ready to listen as to be heard. They are
neither impatient to interrupt others
nor uneasy when interrupted them
selves. Knowing that their anecdotes
or sharp replies will keep, or need not
find utterance at all, they give full at
tention to their companion, and do not
by their looks show that they consider
him bore. Another rule observed by
every good-mannered person, besides
that he should not be impatient to get
in his word, is that few brilliant flash.
es of silence should occur in converse
ton. Another rule is not to select one
self to talk about. 1t must be borne in
mind that as a rule we and our concern 5
are of no more Importance to others
than they and their concerns are TO us.
Why, then, should we go over the an
nails of our lives generally, and our dis
eases in particular, to comparative
strangers? Why should we review thu
hardships we have suffered in money
matters, in love, or our domestic
troubles, or why should we boast of ON
success? 1t is unnecessary to state
that gossip or scandal-bearing is ncom-
patible with good manners. "The &C.
casons of silence" says Bishop Potter

nothing to say. or nothing but what is
