rived here with a japanese party OH

months trip around the world to study

the relations between America and ia
pan Count Matsukata said:
1.-THE japanese fully realize that 1t is
to their best interests to foster the am
icable relations existing with the Unit
ed States. This will not be hard
task, for the United States has i'm
mense interests in the far east not only
in Japan, but in regions where the
friendship of Japan will be Of great
value. The increase in trade between
the two countries has been remarka-
BILE. The prospects are that the trade
will continue to grow very fast. Nat

0UBx,s FIRST ENVOY.
Do Quesada Likely to BE Minister -
the United States.

Ne ouesada Likely to BE Minister -
the United states.
Washington, March p. 1T is the
present understanding that Gonzales
de Quesada, formerly Cuban commits
sioner, will be the first minister from
Cuba to the United States.
The United States diplomatic repre-
sentative to Cuba will be full f1edged
minister and not commissioner. Pres
ident Roosevelt is about to send mes
sage to congress to secure legislative
authority for the appointment of such
a minister, as well as for the half doz-
en- United States consuls who must be
appointed. There are no less than POO
applications on file for these consul
lates already.
The president has not yet indicated
the person he will name as United
States minister to Cuba, but in view OF
the fact that this official must plunge
at once into the difficult task of negOti-
ating a fabric of treaties with the new
republic it is expected that the choice
will fall upon some one not altogether
lacking in diplomatic experience. The
choice will certainly not fall upon an
army or naval officer in the present
state Of mind of the executive.
The presumption is that the salary
attached to the Office will be In the
neighborhood Of $500 per annum,
sum proportionate to the salaries paid
to United States ministers in countries
corresponding in population to Cuba.

THE PASSING OF NEGRO
MINsTRELsY IN AMERICA

New York sun: 'One of the points
i'm the discussion of the decline of
negro minstrelsy that is never touch
ed on" said Il manager who at one
time was much interested in this
branch of amusement, us the matter
of style in theatrical performances.
Negro minstrelsy, after Il long period
of popularity, went out of style just
as other kinds of theatrical perform
ances have in the past and will con-
tinue to in the future. There are
fewer traces of this burnt cork phase
of theatrical art now left because it
was an elementary kind of stage pro-
duction in many ways, and when ii
went. there was nothing of ii left
worth holding on to.
Experienced managers know that
there is distinct fashion in all forms
of theatrical entertainments and
that it is impossible to make the
public recover its interest in a style
that has begun to wane.
Il will give you some instances of
this capriciousness of the public.
Four or five years ago this town was
daft over expensive, imported vaude-
Niiit. WI theatres hONbAtu w bAihA
kind of show made IA great deal of
money for awhile, or at all events,
took in very large receipts. Sudden
ly the public taste for this kind of
was gratified, and the
people refused to be dragged into
these theatres. Nowadays there
isn't a house of that kind in the city,
and there are fewer devoted TO any
kind of vaudeville than there were
four years ago. Vaudeville went out
of fashion, and that settled it.
There are some other instances
equally Indicative of what may hap
pen when the public decides that it
has had enough. The Harrigan &
Hart plays had ut one time-a great
vogue, and it did not seem as if they
could ever lose their popularity. But

Travelling is Dangerous.

Constant motion jars the kidneys,
which are kept in place in the body
by delicate attachments. This is the
reason that travellers, trainmen,
street car men, transfers and all
who drive very much suffer from kid
ney disease in some form. Foley's
Kidney Cure strengthens the kidneys
and cures all forms of kidney and
bladder disease. George III. Hansen,
locomotive engineer, Lima, Ohio,
writes: Constant vibration of the en-
CINE caused me a great deal of trou-
BILE with my kidneys, and 1 got no re-

they began to pail on the public after
awhile and their day was at an end.
The German farces at Days were
the same sort of a case. For nearly
ten years they were played with great
success there. They were about as
good at the end of that time as they
had been at the beginning, and al
though some of the actors had left
the company new ones were there TO
take their places. But these plays
had gone out of style, and there was
absolutely no way of bringing the
public in to see them. They can
never, of course, be made as popular
again, whatever happens.
This was also the fate of the
French farces imported from Paris.
They are as ingenious now in con
struction as they ever were and
ought to be just as amusing. But
they, too. have gone out of fashion.
So have the burlesques of the English
type imported by Lydia Thompson,
the comic operas of the old conven-
tional kind and English melodramas
of the character once liked here.
"All these phases of theatrical per-
Torrance lost their vogue. Of course,
negro minstrelsy, after a certain
time, also lost its novelty. The end
of the thing has come. There was
nothing more for the comedians to
do and N new ones to do it \ few
years 4 Z the negro humor came
back TO the stage in a new form, in
the cake walkers and real negro ac-
tors who suddenly became popular.
But that was as near a revival of
negro minstrelsy as there is likely
to be.
There may be something new that
manager will call negro minstrel
sy. but it will not be in the least like
the original thing. That has gone
for good. And ii went for the eX-
cellent reason that the public had had
enough of il. Ii had its day like
other kinds of amusement, and it is a
fact of that business that nothing is
ever revived to repeat its first sue
cess.
II don't think that there is any
particular cause for regret in the dis
appearance of negro minstrelsy, for
it was not an especially high form of
dramatic art. But it is always n
to me that so many persons
who have the time to deplore the dis
of negro minstrelsy never
realize why it happened"
