THE EMPEROR OF JAPAN
He Rises at O'clock in the Morning and is Busy
Until After Midnight
BY EDWARD T. HAYDEN.
A HARD WORKER

Count Sou sent one of his rstainers.
Kioura. to Tshushima to see how his
islanders were getting along at this
critical time. Kioura has returned to
Toxic. and this is his report:
AT present the entiresisland Is III as
great confusion as il warfare We're
actually raging there. The officials
are working day and night in order
to be ready for anything that may
happen, and to be in a position to give
all the aid in their power TO the war;
ships and to the army in Korea. From
all the homes in the island the men
have flocked to the military head
quarters to be enrolled as soldiers,
and every man up to the age of sixty
has been accepted.
"Only women and children are left
in the deserted homes. The islanders
are mostly poor, and they are short of
fuel and provisions In this hard win
ter. Nevertheless, they are giving
generously from this scanty stores for
the cause of their country. and their
only regret seems to be that they will
not have an opportunity to give their
lives. There is not enough accommo-
dation for the great number of SOL
diers. on the island. Every house is
overcrowded, and half dozen of them
will sleep together in a room twelve
feet by six
by my visit and the message of SYM
pathy and encouragement which 1
carried to them from their feudal lord.
Men, women and children gathered
around me, all expressing their desire
to die for their country. At the viii
lage of IdZuhara, where the old feudal
castle stood, the excitement was keen
est.
From that village an old man nam
ed Urata, 81 years of age, applied to
be enrolled as a soldier and so did
another veteran named Yoshida, who
is over rs. They were sorely grieved
when the officers refused to enlist them
! on account of their age. They have
together formed society, with mem
bers in all the villages, to send sup
plies to the army and support the poor
! families whose men have gone to the
war. They work day and night for
this noble cause as energetically as if
| they were young men.
"Yoshida lamented to me that he
was not allowed to fight. This is the
| time, he said, when l should be per-
mitted to present these aged bones
to the country which has nourished
| them"
