The Pursuit of knowledge.

That the japanese, until late years,
have been on the same plane as other
Oriental nations, was not due to nat
ural inferiority, but to the same con-
ditions which brought China to a
standstill centuries ago. The Jap
snese revolution of 1868 followed the
opening Of the long closed japanese
ports by Commodore Perry i'll 1853, the
Shoguns, the barbarous and ignorant
rulers, were defeated, and the Mikado
restored to his ancient power. When
the present Emperor took his corona
tion oath, he advised his people TO seek
knowledge in foreign lands, IN the
great and powerful nations of the
West, full grown and strong, and this
has ever since been the japanese pol
icy. In carrying out this plan, Japan
has sent the flower of her young men
70 study abroad. and has invited for
eign experts TO come to Japan and as
sist her in the building of railroads,
the establishment Of postal systems
and telegrsphs. and the founding of
educational institutions with foreign
teachers. After the expulsion OF the
dynasty which for 500 years had kept
the country isolated from the rest of
the world, it suddenly awoke from its
dream OF ignorant content and began
90 strive for place among enlighten-
ed and progressive nations. Its advance
along the upward path has excited the
wonder Of the world. Now in her life
and death struggle with Russia, Japan
has almost the whole world S sympathy.
As John 4. Mott. the international
secretary and great traveller for the Y.
n. @. A, recently said at the state
convention at Scranton in his delight
ful descriptions of Japan and the won
dertul advance of her people, IN their
dosire for the best in Western civilIza-
tion. they take note that the Christian
people are the most intelligent, best
learned and best business men. and the
great leaders and statesmen are allied
with the church, and they are investi-
eating the Christian religion encour-
aging teachers and missionaries, and
ID is not too much TO expect that in
another generation or two We may find
the Christian religion predominating
in japan and the empire Christian
instead of heather nation as now So
called
With her most talented young men
sent to the great Centers of American
and European civilization, and be-
coming imbued with Christian methods
of living. there must a still greater
change come to Japan in the next ten
years. than the past decade, unless the
present war shall be a setback, and
whatever the results. victory or de-
feat. it must leave serious scars.

A BLAZE AT
THE Big Mill

A fire broke out at the Reading Iron
Works about half past six O'Clock last
evening, but thanks to the excellent
facilities for fighting fire and the
quick and intelligent action on the
part of the employees the flames were
wiped out in an incredibly short space
of time and the damage wrought was
hardly worth mentioning.
The alarm went out from the works
and was quickly followed with gen
eral ringing Of the fire bells. The Con
tinental boys started for the mill in
double quick time but upon reaching
the bridge on Mahoning creek they
were informed that the fire was extin-
guished. Meanwhile the fire bells had
brought out big crowd Of excited
people who ran breathlessly about the
streets inquiring where the fire was.
The most of these failed TO discover
what was burning When it was seen
that the Continental Company turned
and retraced its way some one started
the report that it was a false alarm
aud this by seven -tenths of the people
was taken as correct.
The alarm, however, Was "A true and
| well-founded one aud it Is easy tC
conceive of conditions under which
the fire might have rapidly spread anC
caused heavy loss The flames were
discovered beside the large upright
boiler at No. heating furnace in the
twelve inch mill The fire had already
obtained IA fair foothold upon the tim
bers and was spreading Quick as
| thought, however, the men sprang tC
the mill hose which is at all times
kept in readiness aud in less than
three minutes time had the fire eX
tinguished. The Continental Fire
Company, already had its hose un
reeled, when it received word that it,
services would not be needed.
The origin of the fire is explained il
tthis way: At some distance over head
lamp fixed alongside the boiler i
kept burning to throw light upon the
steam or water gauge. Owing to some
cause this lamp exploded last evening

Down With The Groundhog.

The grounding is a mighty poor rep
resentative of the deserving and ad-
mirable American citizen. He has no
regard for the country, none for any
Of his fellow citizens who may or may
not be hoggish by nature, none tor
human weather prophets and he re-
fuses to discriminate between people
who believe in him and those who do
not
When the grounding came out Of his
hole a few weeks ago the official
weather man had prepared for him a
nice bright day that anything but a
hog would have enjoyed. But the
grounding having been awakened too
soon and feeling grouchy, disdains the
weather man s preparations and goes
back into his hole and the elect among
his worshipers thereupon proclaim
that this means six weeks more Of
winter
We have been getting all of that
winter weather since the grounding
saw his shadow a few weeks ago. We
have escaped no kind or degree Of
winter weather, including a thunder
storm. We have been catching colds
and the grip ana breaking our limbs
on icy pavements ever since his hog
ship emerged from his lair.
Therefore we, the assembled victims
of low animal vicious propensties.
do protest against a continuance of
these ills and pray that the next Legis-
lature protect us from them by pro.
claiming and commanding the slaugh-
ter of all groundhOgs within the bor-
ders of this Commonwealth, Offering
rewards for the faithful performance
of the same by all good citizens. The
goose bone peoples case may be CON
sidered afterward. The grounding
must be disposed of first. He has
reached the end of his rope.

The meeting was held in the school

The Farm Labor Problem.

The question of securing competent
farm labor, especially for dairy work
is OF great Importance and interest to
| the farmer, and III many sections Is
| disc1uTaging the most profitable de-
velopment of th9 dairy interests AT
the annual meeting of the Pennsyl-
vania Horticultural Association, held
at Lancaster, Gabriel Heister, the well
known Harrisburg fruit grower, said,
| in substance:
THE past season was the most
vexatious | have ever experienced III
the matter OF securing laborers to dc
farm ana orchard work. They were
never so scarce and incompetent. paid
the same wages per hour and worked
the same hours that the railroad cou-
tractors did alongside Of me, but could
not get the hands.
a dairyman in the central part Of
the state wants information relative
to milking machine that was being
advertised about a year ago. He says
he has a sixty-cow dairy, good trad g
and is doing well, but has the greatest
difficulty securing and keeping milk
ers 1t is understood that the milking
machine is not an applied success.
When dairying became general in
Eastern Pennsylvania it was often the
custom to require the farm hands to
work till sundown and then milk a
number of cows. The same perform
ance was in too many cases required
also before an early breakfast
Recently young, bright fellow, who
had been working as hired man on a
farm, asked for letter to help him
get job in the city.
"Why do you leave the country -
he was asked.
Too much work never get done !;
want change.
Cant you make as much money in
the country"
"Yes, guess | can, and no doubt
save more, but l don't like those farm
ers' nine-hour system-nine hours be-
fore dinner and nine after.
This fellow was eXaggeri ting some
what, even for the most extreme cases,
but his wit had good foundation
The long days are passing, however,
and the more progressive farmers and
dairymen are working their men more
reasonably. This is humane and just
