The fascinating subject of dollars
and cents recalls a conversation that
was overheard in an uptown cafe a
few evenings ago. There are such
cafes in New York. and there is no
good reason why Providence shouldn't
have them.
friend with whom he was dining, that
young fellow at the next table who
Just left? He reminded me of the
difference there is in people when it
comes to carrying money. That youth
had a roll of bills as big as his arm,
and he wanted everybody to see them,
although he made believe to hide
them. They were mostly ones and
hves. His check was 40 cents, but he
paid with a five. Then when he or
dered a cigar out came the accumula-
ton of a lifetime again and he handed
the waiter another five. If he has his
shoes shined he'll break a IS bill, and
keep on until he has nothing but ones
and twos. He likes to give folks the
impression that his capital is enor-
nous, although it isn't. judging from
his appearance Then there's the man
who always has $500 or $500 in his
pocket, but it's in an inside pocket and,
it's in big denominations ffties and
hundreds. He seldom shows any real
money. He has small bills handy for
ordinary use. but he doesn't mean to
be caught. If there's an argument,
with a bet in it, he can put up on the
spot And a good many men don't
carry enough money to scrape through
the day. You'll find millionaires who
have to turn themselves inside out to
settle for a carfare. Some lug what
/ call rheumatism money in every
pocket It's SO twisted and defOrmed
and out of shape that you can't count
it unless you smooth it over with
hot f1atiron. Others fold their money
neatly. There are all kinds, but as a
rule the chap who pulls out a bloated
collection of 81 bills is carrying every
penny he has in the world. and a good
deal more than he'll have many hours
unless he's careful. "-Providence Jour

He has always manifested a warm
friendship for the people of the west
ern world and is an outspoken admirer
of American institutions. Owing to his
exalted rank he has held the position
of social almoner at the court Many
foreigners are indebted to him for their
opportunity to inspect Japan's most
exclusive circles at close range.
In the Chino-Japanese war Prince
Fushimi served with distinction, having
on more than one occasion proved his
courage by leading mis- men in perilous
undertakings. He manifested such re-
markable unconcern as to his personal
safety that by the mikado's orders a
special guard was detailed to keep
watch of his movements. At the close
of that campaign he was elevated to
the rank of senior imperial prince. He
was most efficient in the preparations
which were made for the war with
Russia, and at the breaking out of hos
tilities he was made commander of the
First division of the reorganized Japa-
nese army.
Prince F'ushimi led the attack made
by the First division at the sanguinary
battle of Nanshan Hill. His division
was sent to capture a position which
the Russian military engineers had de-
clared to be impregnable. A series of
formidable earthworks from behind
which the Russian field artillery deIiv-
cred constant and most deadly fire
had to be silenced, and the ranks of ad-
Vancing Japanese were thrown into
confusion by the rapid fire. Realizing
that the situation was desperate, the
prince exhorted his men to make a
last fmpetuous charge and put himself
at the head of the hesitating column
The movement was successful. and the
Japanese drove the Muscovites from
the trenches and obtained possession
of the guns. These they put to such
successful use that the disorganized
Russians could not regain the position.
although they contested the ground
stubbornly. Prince Fushimi and his
victorious division were the heroes OF
the day. and all Japan hailed them al
such. ALBERT o. WEBER

wASHERWoNfAN'S CONFESSIONS.
Position Much Preferable to That of a
Maid OF All Work.

A writer in the current number of the
Independent upsets the general notion
that the lot of a waSherwoman, like
that of the policeman in the Pirates
of Penzance,' is mot a happy one
According to this writer, who does
not give her name on account of a de-
sire to keep the nature of her profit
able calling from her friends, the posi-
ton of washerwoman is in every way
preferable to that of maid of all work
After telling of her bitter experiences
as a servant, and of her acceptance of
an offer to do washing and ironing, she
says:
Il am working steadily now and do
not find it so very disagreeable. do
not enjoy washing, but nearly all OF my
work is ironing, and take CONSIDER
able pleasure in 1t, now that have
time to do it we'll In bad
weather we are sometimes forced to
work on Saturday, either one or both
of US, but have lost only two days IN
this way Ny hands are not
as pretty as they used to be, but 1 keep
them in fair condition by wearing
kloves whenever 1 step out of doors,
and also at night"
In addition we learn that she gets
$3.50 a day and board, and that she
works only five days a week, enabling
her to board at a good boarding house
where she has the use of a piano. And
the rest of the boarders think she
teaches school, for the reason that she
does not work Saturdays or sundays.

were the finest recommendation of all
the fact that the knowledge that she is
a 'swasherwoman" can be kept from
her friends.
But doubtless the writer who descants
so glowingly on her success in this line
of work has not attained to sucn
heights as she imagines. Her false
pride in permitting her friends to go on
thinking she is a teacher instead of
washerwoman, will always stand in her
way. No person has ever achieved a
real success in work of which he or she
is ashamed-and no person can be
really first-clasS washerwoman when
she does not glory in doing her work
well. If such a foolish and weak
minded person can make a partial sue
cess of wash-day work, evidently the
field offers even more for those who en-
ter it whole-heartedly and with all their
enthusiasm. If all looked at the en-
nobling side of toll there would be no
problems in housekeeping or any
other field of labor, and there would be
no more such foolish confessions" as
those published by the anonymous
writer whose case has been reviewed.

has occurred to many persons that the
princes coming may have a quasi po-
litical significance. He is reputed to be
a man of singularly attractive person
ality, and it is argued that his pres
ence at this particular time will do
wonders toward perpetuating pro-Jap-
anese sentiment, which is already ex-
ceedingly strong in the United States.
notwithstanding the fact that he
comes Invested of all appearance of
official Importance. Prince Fushimi will
be accorded the attention which is due
his rank by the government. 1t is ex-
pected that his progress through the
country will be marked by elaborate
official and unofficial ceremonies. Even
if he were not a prince his record as a
victorious general would entitle him to
the endless series of receptions, din
ners and other functions with which
the generous Americans overwhelm all
those who have made themselves con-
spicuous for heroism. OF course the
government will so temper it's official
hospitality that the representatives of
other powers cannot find cause for Of
tense; that is one of the chief accom-
plishments of diplomacy.
The prince will be invited to dine at
the White House. AS a member of the
ruling house of Japan he will be enti-
tied to a military escort while in Wash
ilSlOn as was Hrlnce Henry OF RruS-
STA, who was entertained at the presi-
Dental mansion in 1902.
There will, of course, be a reception
at the japanese legation, and it will
probably prove to be a social revelation
to the capitals official circles. AS it
will be early in the season these func-
lions will attract widespread attention,
and the competition to secure the COW
eted invitations has already begun.
The official festivities will he followed
by round of private hospitality which
will surpass in lavish outlay anything

remain in the United States for at least
a month and hopes to visit all the prin-
cipal cities in the Union there is no
doubt that the capitals hospitaAIe ex-
