some Stories of the Present Archbishop
of Canterbury.
Many are the stories of the courage
and wit shown by the present arch
bishop of Canterbury, DR.. Temple, in
combating the attacks of the extreme
nigh churchmen which followed the
publication of his Essays and Re
views" When he was nominated as
bishop of Exeter, writer in one OF
the Devon papers gave expression to
the view that the Tories disliked DR..
Temples politics, and pretended that
1t was his religion they objected to-"
Mr.. Gladstone and the queen were un-
moved. Protests against the conse-
Grafton were sent in by the bishops
of Gloucester, Hereford. Lichfield and
duly performed, in spite of the vehe-
ment opposition of high churchmen
and Tories in all parts of the country
one church newspaper said in an edt-
torial jeremiad: "And SO, on that
darkest day in the whole year, was per-
petrated the darkest crime ever COM
mitted in the English church!" Such
sentence as this shows to what a
height the animosity had run. DR..
Benson, the most intimate of all Tenn
pies friends, thus described his bear
ing during that memorable incident in
Westminster Abbey: Dear Temple S
face was white as ashes, and his jet
black hair and whiskers and the white
and black of his robes made him look
in his stiffness a sad plight for a
friends eye to rest upon. His healthy
bronze was quite gone. but he looked
q true man." DR.. Temples temperance
agitation exposed him to criticism
from another source. He enjoys tell
ing this story: In the west of England
he one afternoon spoke at an agricul-
tural society's meeting-a kind OF oc-
casion at which he was eminently at
home from his knowledge Of farming.
But he could not miss the opportunity
of giving some temperance hints and
advice. He remarked, with his accus-
toned grim humor, that he h1mself
had never been drunk in his lie.
On his way home he heard the boys
in the street with the papers shout

bishop Of Exeter The headline was
certainly startling one. The pishop

to see what he had said, and found

JAPAN'S MiLlIONAlRES.
Ten Rich Men In United States to Ono
in ,yapan.

Ten Rich Men In United states to One
The Jill Shimpo mas made curious
census of the rich men of Japan. The
object of its investigations was to as
certain how many persons there are
in the empire possessed of fortune
of 100000 yen, which is equal to $780,
900, says Japan and American. The
total number of these quarter-million-
aires is AL. One-third of the number
reside in Toxic, and the great major
ity are found, of course. in the capital
and the progressive cities of Osaka,
Koto. Kobe and Yokohama. The re-
suit shows that there are ten rich men
in the United States to one rich man in
Japan, even when $1,000,00O is accept
ed as a standard in the United States
and $250,000 in the Japanese empire.
The proportion, however, is not so
much against Japan as may at first ap-
pear. The rich men of the latter coun-
try, even the bankers and financiers,
have their largest holdings in land
They have not yet specialized the
business OF money making as it has
been In this country and therefore the
basis Of fortunes is more stable. Again.
it Is estimated that dollar in Japan
is equal in the amount it will purchase
Of comfort and luxury, to four or FIVE
dollars in the United States. With
this consideration in view it will be
seen that the apparently small for
tunes of the Japanese wealthier class
es are really much larger than they
seem. The period of business and in
dustrial development has just begun
and fortunes are being made more rap
idly now than they were ten or even
five years ago. This is shown by the
tremendous growth of the Japanese
shipbuilding industry and in the ac-
cumulated fortunes of many financiers
Of Toxic and Yokohama. 1t is con-
ceivable that another decade may see
Toxic the great financial metropolis
of the East, as London is of Europe
and New York is of the American con-
tinent. Japan's day has Just dawned,
and it is idle to contrast the beginnings
OF her accumulations Of wealth with
the results of acquisitions in this
country and in Europe.
