NAVAL CADETS OF JAPAN.
Certain Mental, Physical and Finan-
cial Qualifications Are De-
manded of Them.

Japan's system of selecting naval
cadets is altogether unlike the Amer
lean system of appointment by con-
gressmen. If Japanese boy wishes
to become a naval cadet he must nrst
graduate from the public schools. Ihen
he must pay his own expenses at a
naval preparatory school. These ex-
penses are equivalent, in American
money, to about six dollars month.
Having graduated from the prepara-
tory school, says Teiichi Yamagatas
"a japanese MILDLY" in ST. Nicholas,
ne forthwith enters the naval college,
and from that time on his expenses
are borne by the government. ANY
japanese boy who has the necessary
mental, physical and financial quail
fications can thus become a naval ca
Diet.
1t was a very proud moment for the
writer, you may be sure, when he hrst
donned the uniform of the kanda
school and became one OF the four
hundred students there. The uniform
was plain, consisting OF simple Dlue
jacket with a single row OF brass put
tons, plain blue trousers and a naval
cap of English pattern.
Our arms were not calculated TO
strike terror to even the most tlmld
heart, since they were nothing but
mock wooden guns. Yet we boys must
have fancied that the martial spirit
of the old-time sumurai dwelt IN those
harmless make-believe muskets, Tor II
would have been difficult indeed to
find fiercer looking lot of youthful
warriors than we were at drill.
What did we study? First OF all
the Japanese and Chinese languages,
delving a little into the classics OF
'both. Then we were obliged to write
compositions in Japanese and Chinese,
and disliked the task just as heartily
as American boys do their English and
Latin compositions. We were taught
English also, and compositions in that
language were added to our other tor
lures. Arithmetic, algebra, a short
course in Japanese history, short
course in geography and free-hand
drawing, including map work-surely
this was enough for boys of 13 OF Ia
years of age! l feel sure that all OF
my young American readers Will
agree with me on this point. Elemen-
tary military drill and instruction IN
rowing were elective branches; but
there were few boys who did not take
them up.
Five days and a half every week
were devoted to these studies. The
discipline was not unnecessarily
strict, and on the whole our life was
even jollier than American boarding
school life. We were a fun-lOving lot
of boys, and many were the FRANKS we
played upon each other. Even our in
structors did not always escape. But
"hazing," as the term is understood
in this country, is unknown to Japan
csc students.

THE STRUGGLING FOREIGNER
How He Gets Things Twisted When
He First Comes to This
Country.

Boys and girls who are born in this
country and imbibe a knowledge OF its IN
situations and It's geography with their
passing examinations on them in school.
1t is little wonder, then, that the imml-
grants described in the New York Tribune
nave trouble with their examinations when
they apply for naturalization papers.
''How is the president elected?" one OF
them was asked recently.
The applicant squirmed as if his memory.
was about to collapse. Then a CLEAN or
intelligence came into his eyes and he said:
by big-a machority.''
A native of Denmark, big boned and
flaxen- haired, was asked how many states
there are in the union.
New York, New Chicago, New Boston,
New Jersey and lot more" he replied
On further questioning it was found that
he had gathered that the name of the state
was that of the town with New" pre-
fixed.

THE UNHEALTHY TRADES
Fatalities of the Various Callings and
Industries-Consumption
Most Common.

For centuries the tailor has been the
subject of testing pity because his trade
was supposed to make him physically
weak, while the stonecutter has been
usually represented as the image OF
strength. So sailors and miners are
supposed to follow dangerous trades, as
indeed they do, says the Chicago Inter
Ocean, if the chances of external injury
alone be considered, while bookkeepers
and statesmen are supposed to be in lit
tie danger from their occupations.
Disease, however, kills scores where
accidents kill one, and of all diseases
consumption kills the most adults. And
with regard to deaths from consump-
ton life insurance expert has recently
prepared chart, from official mortality
returns, which upsets many popular no.
tons as to the relative healthfulness or
unhealthfulness of various trades. 1t
covers 80 leading trades, and shows
the percentages of deaths from con-
sumption to deaths from all causes of
workers in each.
In the middle stand the painters and
grocers, with percentages of 23.4 and
242 From grocers the figures rise
through liquor dealers, molders, long
shoremen, potters, cigar-makers, silk
workers, hatters, statesmen, plumbers,
bookkeepers, brassworkers, glasswork-
ers, printers, and stoneworkers, Of
whom 45.1 per cent. die of consump-
ton
From painters the figures go down
through brewers, bakers, policemen,
weavers, iron and steel workers, ma
sons, butchers, carpenters, tailors,
blacksmiths, merchants, sailors, brake
men and miners, of whom only GA per
cent die of consumption.
1t is certainly something of a sur
prise to learn that the most widely fatal
of maladies is less likely to kill the pro-
verbally weak tailor than the proven,
bially strong butcher, and that sailors,
who must endure the most sudden and
violent changes of temperature, are less
subject to consumption than printers,
who can hardly work at all except in a
reasonably even temperature.
In this connection it is interesting to
note that large employers of labor are
being convinced with increasing ease
and rapidity that provision of clean,
we'll ventilated, and properly heated and
lighted shops is an investment that pays
good dividends by increasing the con-
tentment and preserving the health OF
their employees, and that in this manner
tho mortality of even tha I'm hoo II hi &c
trades may be sensibly diminished

admissions have been recorded since
the exposition opened April 80. The
attendance in September was $751;
873, the banner month. The largest

So that every citizen Of st. Louis
might participate in the last day Of the
exposition and help observe Francis
day today was proclaimed a holiday
by Mayor Wells. Governor Dockery
likewise proclaimed holiday in the
state The crowds that poured into
the city on the early trains attested to
the fact that the proclamation was
observed. Public schols were closed
as were many business houses. Presf-
den Francis was escorted to the plaza
of st. Louis where the formal closing
ceremonies were held. The process
sion was headed by military escort.
On the north side of the Louisiana Pur
chase monument where the opening ex
ercises we're held just seven months
ago President Francis deliverd HIS
farewell address. The members OF
the national committee, the board OF
lady managers, the members of the
foreign and state commissions, and
other notable guests, occupied the I'm
mediate vicinity of the speakers stand
and on all sides hundreds pressed to-
ward the monument simply to be in
attendance upon the closing exercises
of the great exposition.
The assemblage was called to order
by Mayor Rolla Wells. Rev. DR.. s.
J. Nichols, of the second Presbyteri-
an church, S. Louis, invoked divine
blessing. Brief addresses were made
by Governor Dockery, in behalf Of the
state and Mayor Wells in behalf Of
the city.
AS President Francis rose to speak
the assembled thousands sent up a
mighty cheers. Mr.. Francis told OF
the exposition as a monument to the
industry of the world as an univer-
sal institution of instruction and as a
patriotic success. When he had ceased
speaking the throng again burst into
| cheering, and then dispersed to view,
for the last time, the exhibits and
sights of the exposition.
Drills and concerts and receptions
generally throughout the grounds oc-
cupied the latter part of the day. Pres
ident Francis was rendered a general
reception at the house of the board oi

the success of the besiegers, but the
fortitude of the defenders, and the
prolongation of the siege which ex-
