a hero. The Count of Monte Cristo without his ruby hasheesh box and his large bank account would not have been nearly so interesting a hero. He would have been entirely unable to carry out the great purposes of the book, and but for the fortunate discov- cry of the treasure on the island man. kind would be deprived of one of the most thrilling narratives ever written. Then there was Aladdin. From an or dinary boy. oppressed peIennially with that tired feeling. he developed into most interesting hero as soon as he got unlimited wealth and was enabled to marry the princess and to put his foot on the neck of the grand vizier if he had so desired.
 The possibilities of a hero as wealthy as MT. Schwab, with n salary of $1,- 100000 year. and in the enjoyment of private yacht, are enormous, and Miss Rives intends to do it right. She is even now among the ironmakers of Pittsburg learning details, and it is just possible that she may serve an ap- premiership as q molder or puddler in order to give the book the realism so necessary to success. From the foundry she may plunge into Wall street and finally land up at the new palace on Morningside heights. She will find that palace far more firmly fixed than was Aladdin's, and with modern plumbing and conveniences that the slave of the lamp had not dreamed of. Probably he has never been aware of it. but MT. Schwab has all along been the ideal of a hero of romances. It took genius to discover it. But there is still higher ideal, and after "The Talc of Trust President" has gone forth. we may expect another book of the same kind entitled "The Fortunes of a Financier." with Mir. J. P. Morgan himself as the prince Bal ti.rlore Sun

THEY REACHED LASSA
Pluck and Luck of Three Young Gen
 tlemen of Japan.

The Sacred City of Lassa, the capital city of Tibet, hitherto forbidden city to all foreigners. has been entered re- gently by three daring young Japanese explorers. They are Captain Yoshiteru Narita, Hiroshi Nomi and Keikai Kawaguchi, a Buddhist priest of Hon. ganji, Kyoto. Captain Y. Narita is q promising young soldier and a son of a Samurai of the Satsuma clan. He went to China several years ago, stay ing in that country for several months while he was preparing for his arduous expedition. After many dangers and hardships he succeeded in reaching Lassa, having taken several years to accomplish his self appointed task. He stayed in the Holy City for eighteen days, and then returned to Japan about two months ago. About the same time that Captain Narita visited Lassa MT. Hiroshi Nomi reached the interior of Tibet. There has been no news from him for some time. and he is supposed to be on his way home. He is very young man, but brave and cool and quiet in his ways Keiltai Kawaguchi. the third of the Japanese explorers. had the hardest experience. He went by way of the Himalaya mountains, and suffered severe attack of snow blindness. He was totally blind for some time. but has entirely recovered from this mountain disease. Once he was mistaken for a robber by the Tib- etans, who came very near making him pay the penalty, which is in Tibet to put the robber on a horse and then shoot him. MT. Kawaguchi who is a Buddhist priest. at last succeeded in reaching Lassa. and is still residing in that city.
 These achievements, remarkable in themselves. are significant in another way. In the first place. they show the tremendous energy and indomitable bearing of the Japanese. It will be found, in the case of others who have
Arizona republican., 1902-11-22

tried to reach Lassa, that they were men who had fitted themselves by long study and experience for the attempt, and who made the final effort under the most favorable conditions possible. All of them, with one or two rare ex- captions, failed lamentably. Mission aries. who had won the confidence of the Tibetans, and who had learned their language, failed to penetrate even to the vicinity of the sacred city. Some succeeded in getting within days march and were tortured and turned
 back, or killed. Even the most accom-
 plished explorer of modern times, Sven
 Hedin, the incomparable Swede, who
 had fitted himself for his work by
 years of study and travel, could not pass the Tibetans guards that protect
 ed the sacred precincts of Lassa. Yet
 these Japanese, young and untried ad-
 venturers. with the exception of Cap
 tain Narita, who prepared for his ex- petition by living in China for several
 months, succeeded in attaining a goal that has been denied to the most daring and experienced travellers in the world.
 But the chief significance of these re- markable achievements is in the revela
 
 world of action. It reveals an awak oning in Japan such as occurred in Spain when there dawned upon her carly greatness, and when she was pre- pairing to send forth into the world her explorers and conquerors-Columb l Cortez, Pizarro, de Soto; or, in Eng | land, when Drake and Howard and Hawke led the way to the glories of | England. on sea and land, and trans | formed her into a world-eXplorer and world conqueror. It reveals the birth | of tremendous national energy and an | indomitable national spirit. Japan is | no longer a group of islands, a collec-
 ton of people. but a nation, possessed | by fiery national spirit. These things
 reveal it, just as it was revealed by the greater things of the war with China,
 and by the splendid heroism of her | soldiers in the advance on Peking. and l by their more than splendid chivalry
 and courtesy toward the conquered Chinese.
 We must now look to Japan for the
