CASSlNl
Is A DIPLOMAT
Chinese Minister Also Up to the
Ways of the World.
BOTH ATTRACT ATTENTION
THEIR HOUSES AT WASHINGTON
ARE CLOSE TOGETHER.
Especial TO me Herald.)


Washington, Feb. 20.-Since the com
mencement Of hostiItties in the Orient
the Washington embassies of the war
ring nations attract much attention.
These embassies are almost within a
stones throw of each other. and when
the japanese minister Kogoro Taxa
hira. takes his Sunday walk he invari-
ably follows the fashionable way past
the elegant home of the Russian am
bassador. The latter can see from the
steps of his embassy the pale blue flag
of Japan floating above the Japs Off
ctai home. The headquarters of the two
nations present great extremes.
There is hardly a more imposing home
I'm Washington than that occupied by
Count Cassini The ablishment takes
i'm a large tract of land fronting on
Thomas Circle. the very center of the
fashionable residential section The
house rises from high terrace which
adds foTcibly TO the impression of
grandeur which the establishment
gives.
The japanese legation is much more
modest. Tt is on the east side of Four
teenth street, just out Of the fashion
able quarter. The legation occupies a
plain locking structure with nothing
about it but the Japanese flag to at
tract a second look from a passer-by.
There is also a vast difference in the
makeup and appearance of the Rus
sian ambassador and the japanese min
lister. Were 1t not for his frock coat
and silk hat one might guess that the
mikados minister at Washington was
q professional juggler of sleight of
hand performer OF the kind one sees IN
the circus ring, But the Jap, if not
much for looks, is a wonderful diplO-
mat. It is said that he COnhdes. his Sc
Crets TO DO one. Even the English am
bassador gets nothing from him, and
Great Britain is Japan's ally. Mr..
Takahira feigns deafness when pressed
for information, and what little news
comes out OF the Japanese legation is
furnished in typewriter form so that
there win be no Interpretations. The
Japs are great workers, and all night
long the light burns in the business
office Of the legation, boys run IN AMI
out with cablegrams and dispatches,
and il is the busiest place in Washing
ton.
Count Cassini. the Russian ambassa-
dor, is an imposing looking man whose
beautiful uniform makes him the cen
ter Of attraction at every diplomatic
gathering He was five years at Pc
king before he was promoted to the
post at Washington. and is said to have
directed tn- policy of Russia IN
regard TO China that has led TO the
present war. There is no phase Of the
situation in the far east with which he
is not perfectly familiar. The count. by
the way. is an italian, and not a Rus
sian, and typifies the part of a diplomat
from the top of his polished tile TO the
white spats over his shoes. His clothes
are always par excellence. He is suavi-
ty itself When he called at the state
department after having received the
news Of the disaster to his country s
navy, no one would have gathered from
the composed and serene smile he wore
that his mind was troubled with even
the smallest WOTTy.

NO MAN OR WOMAN
CAN HAVE DYSPEPSIA
And Still Be Agreeable, Attractive
and Popular--A Certain Cure
in Reach of All.

There is nothing that viii put you to
the front SO rapidly in the business or
social world as a cheerful disposition
and d pleasant appearance. Othe-
things being equal people viii so out o.
their way 10 give the fellow a lift who
always wears a cheerful countenance-
The man or woman with a cranky dis
position and a sour face will always
meet with an Indifferent if not a chilly
reception. The commercial traveller,
who is the recognized business Their
mometer, appreciates better than any
one the value of this rule and governs
his actions accordingly.
Dyspepsia destroys all the agreeable
qualities that enter into a man or wo-
mans makeup. It is almost a human
impossibility for any one with q severe
case Of dyspepsia to look pleasant. The
continuous, miserable, cast-dOwn feel
ing is bound to make itself shown in
the appearance and conversation.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are the
sufferers certain cure. They are SO rec
ognized all over the world The cures
they have brought about and the hap
piness they have caused and the suffer
ing they have relieved has made their
name a household word in all the Eng
/ disappearing world.
The reason that Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets are a certain cure is that they
are a natural cure. There is nothing
to prevent them curing. They contain
the essential ingredients Of the diges-
tive fluids Of the stomach and simply
do the identical work of the stomach,
relieving that weakened organ and per-
hitting it TO rest and recuperate. Could
anything be more simple or natural?
They are bound TO cure. They cannot
help themselves. Tt is Just like putting
q new stomach into a man-if that were
posi- bie-and letting the old one so of
on a vacation. Rest is what it needs.
Nature viii do hersoW work of res
toration, never fear.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are for
sale ny all druggists at 80 cents box.
Ali druggists means all druggists. They
have become so necessary to the people
that the druggist simply has 10 keep
them anyway. There are other rem
edies that he can make much more
money on II he could sell them, but he
can't he wiz nor take chances on los
| ing his customers by not always having
on hand d supply Of Stuart's Dyspepsia
! Tablets.

Washington, Feb. 20.-The value Of
the commerce of the Countries fronting
upon the scene of hostilities in the
Orient aggregates about $500. 100000 per
annum, and the value of the commerce
OF the United states with those coun-
tries aggregates over Sl00. 600 600 per
ennum. While the prospect of war re-
suited in placing in the United States
OF orders from Japan for flour and
from Russia for meats. the general
trend Of expectation 10 the four coun-
tries fronting upon the scene Of hostil-
tiles has been downward during the
period i'm which this subject has been
actively discussed. To Japan the eX-
ports from the United States during
the month of December, 1893, were
,245 in value, against S2,Sll,5S9 in
December Of the preceding year, and
for the entire calendar year 1903 were
about $1,000 coo less than in the pre-
ceding year. To Asiatic Russia the ex-
ports from the United states were $zl6,-
"a III 1908, against SS9S.711 in 1902 and
SI.013.320 in 1901. To China our exports
during 1903 were materially below those
Of the preceding year being for the
month of December SS4l, 1913. against
81. S57,733 in December. 1902. and for the
entire year $1497O,13S, against so, $685.

Increase to Russian China.
To Russian China our exports show
an increase. being in 1903 SS46,31o, as
against S42f, 1853 in 1902. To Korea the
exports Of the year also show slight
increase, being valued at S31O,566 IN
1908. against S257, 100 in 1902. To Hong
kong, which is sufficiently far removed
from the scene of existing disturbances
to be less affected. apparently, By such
conditions, the exports from the United
States show an increase, being IN De

and for the entire year $9,iS->1so'
against SS.751 799 in 1902.
As to the trade of the United States
viii Manchuria, the department Of
commerce and labor, through its bu-
reau Of statistics, has recently compiled
some figures which show that the m
ports of New Chuaug, the principal
port through which Manehur1an COM
merce now passes. amounting IN lS0Z
TO about IS 600 600 haikwan taels,
against Il. 000, 600 in 1901, and S.VO0Oo0
in 1900. The value Of the haikwan tael
in 1902 was 63 cents, so that the value
os the imports of Manchuria, stated ID
dollars. would be, in 1902, about ST.
600 600. The official report of the chi
nese government does not SPECIFY aii
classes Of merchandise received into
New Chuang from the United states,
but does specify the four principal ar
ticIes-American jeans. drills, sheetlngs
and kerosenes. The total value of these
four articles Of American production
reported as brought into New Chuang
in 1902, either coming direct from the
United States or from other ports Of
China. was e.11S.920 haikwan taels,
which at the official valuations OF the
haikwan taels in 1902 would make the
total value in United States currency
