FEW RICH MEN IN JAPAN.
Facts Brought Out by II Newspaper
Census of Japnn's Wealthy
Men.

The Jill Shimpo has made a curious
census of the rich men of Japan. The
object of it's Investigations was to as
certain how many persons there are
i'll the empire possessed of a fortune
of 100000 yen, which is equal to $780,
600. The total number of these quar-
ter-millionaires is AL. One-third of
the number reside in Toxic, and the
great majority are found, of course,
in the capital and the progressive
cities of Osaka, Kioto, Kobe and
Yokohama. The result shows that
there are ten rich men in the United
States to one rich man in Japan, even
when n million dollars is accepted as
a standard in the United States and
q quarter of a million in the japanese
empire. The proportion, however, is
not so much against Japan as may
at first appear. The rich men of the
latter country, eve the bankers and
financiers, have their largest hold
ings in land. They have not
vet specialized the business of money
making as it has been in this coun-
try, and therefore the basis of for
tunes is more stable. Again, it is es-
timated that Il 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

classes are really much larger than
they seem. The period of business
and industrial development has just
begun and fortunes are being made
more rapidly 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 accumulated fortunes of many
fnanciers of Toxic and Yokohama. Ii
is conceivable that another decade
may see Toxic the great financial
metropolis of the east, as London is

"The queerest thing about ma

sis that different machines, all built
on exactly the same lines, with every

At noon the merchants lock their

folks on their way to business in the
morning stop at the market and
leave an order for meat for the noon
meal. They do not say how much,
for the butcher has come to know
the amount each customer wants.
The order is simply for meat. The
butcher seldom has more than one

on some days the whole town eats
ham, on others mutton or steak. Few

LARGER SCHOOL BUILDINGS RE.
OUIRED.

Owing to the recent large influx OF
population into Western Canada ii
has become absolutely necessary in
many parts of Manitoba, A%ssiniboia,
Saskatchewan and Alberta to in
crease the school accommodation. In
many places buildings hate been
erected that are only half-occupied.
This is perhaps as good evidence as
will be found not only of their satis-
faction with their present school sys-
tenn and their confidence that it will
remain as it is, but also of their firm
belief in the future expansion of the
country, in increased immigration,
and it further indicates that they
have little fear that the well estab-
-lished rate of births in civilized COM
munities will not be maintained
there.
The free homestead laws and the
cheap railway lands offer great in
ducements, which are opening up the
new settlements. Agents of the Gov
eminent Of Canada are actively at
work in different portions of the
States for the purpose of giving in
formation to possible settlers, and
advertisements are now appearing in
a large number of papers, giving the
names and locations of these Agents.

interest. 1t is the intention to have these
paintings represent a court scene; a mar

scene, and other everyday events of the
present time.

THE Missouri Building at the Louisiana

Purchase Exposition at st. Louis is to
L be almost in the geographical center
OF Forest Park and is therefore near the
eastern boundary of that part OF the park
to be used for the Fair. II will be easy Of
access from north, south and east. The
grounds to the south are nearly level to the
border of the park at Clayton Road. To the
north the approach is prccipitous, which
adds beauties of perspective, while at the
same time the declivity Is not so great as TO
render it inaccessible for pedestrians. The
Intramural Railway, which will traverse
the grounds of the Fair, has been laid out
to pass in the immediate vicinity and a
handsome station will be located near the
Missouri Building.
All the sewer. water and electric service
lines will be brought TO the building. The
site selected is now heavily wooded with
oak, hickory and other forest trees and
not a single tree will be molested except
where the necessities of foundations and
walks compel. The majestic old trees will
be kept to serve us d background and a
foil for the architecture! beauties of the
edifice.
The Missouri Building will face the north,
looking directly toward what will be the
main entrance of the Louisiana Purchase
Exposition. The Lindell pavilion. located
near this point, is even now, and will be
after the Fair, the central gateway on the
north side of the park.
The style of architecture of the build lng
is a free treatment Of the French Renais-
sance. which is the characteristic style Sc
lected for the Exposition. 1t Is in the shape
OF a long parallelOgram with a center wing
extending to the rear. 1t will be two stories

design with the two side and rear wings

branch from the main roturda, will have a
center corridor the full length of the wing
with rooms on either side-large and spa
cious and capable of being used either as
reception or exhibit rooms. The present

large gallery crosses the hall at the north
ern end. Under the hall, in the basement,
are toilet and storage rooms, This com,
partment also contains the heating and
ventllating apparatus: Above the hall are
two large rooms which can be used adyan-
tageously for exhibit purposes.
Two flights of iron stairs lead from the
basement to the second story, These are
placed back of the %rotunda and afford easy
access to all parts of the building.
None but Missouri materials will be
used in the building. The Commission Is
satisfied that Missouri can supply, every
thing needed Tor the erection and equip
ment of even so elaborate u structure as
this.
The basement of the building is to be Of
Missouri granite.
Above this, TO the top of the balustrade
course, the material will be of cut stone.
The kind to be used has not yet been deter
mined, and 1t is hoped that friendly rivalry
will arise among producers of building
stone in Missouri to obtain the use of their
material for the structure. This VIII not
only produce an attractive display, but
should greatly lessen the cost of the struc-
ture and be of great advantage to the pro-
Queer fortunate enough TO supply the mate
rial.
The exterior of the dome will be covered
with Missouri lead or zinc. The rotunda Is
to be finished in the marble and onyx so
abundant in Missouri: The most delicate
materials can be used in this position as
there will be perfect protection from the
weather. There will be no plastering in the
rotunda Walls, columns anddome Will show
the original materials in their most highly
finished condition. The purpose is to get a
perfectly harmonious effect of color and
texture. and at the same time give all the
vast building resources of Missouri a show

GREAT WILD HORSE HUNT.
by u WeIl-IN nOwn Dealer
in wild Beasts.

In recent years the catching of
wild animals for geological parks and
circuses has by M means deteriorat-
ed as an industry. In July of last
year Carl H~agenbeck, of Hamburg,
the wild animal dealer, sen an eXpe-
dition to Mongolia for specimens of
the wild horse should be found in
that region.
The special kind of wild horse that
Mr.. ~Hagenbcck was after was more
than usually swift and elusive, and to
overcome the difficulties in the way
of it's capture his men hired seven
troops of Kirghiz horsemen, number
ing about 1000 in all, and mounted
OF animals almost as swift as the
wild horses.
The latest reports received here are
that the agents have secured forty
six colts, nearly equally divided be-
tween males and females. Brood
mares had to be taken along, II for
each colt, to serve as adopted moth
ers for the young captives.
When the expedition gets out of
Mongolia it will have to travel more
than two months through a rough
country before it reaches the near
est station on the Central Siberian
railway. After that the captive
horses will have to travel by rail
nearly $500 miles, to reach Ham
burg.
Several of the captives have been
sold already, it is said, at about $2,-
500 a pair, a price that will buy a
pretty good blocded horse of almost
the best domestic stock.-N. Y. Sun.
