First Public Entertainment by Japanese
Women for charty.-The first public en-
tertainment ever given by Japanese wo-
men for charity was a recent garden
party, with tableaux, given at the Naval
club, Toxic, by graduates Of the Peer
esses' school. An authority on Japan says
that it is impossible for the western mind
to conceive how great revolution is
marked by this event. The voluntary. re-
nouncement by the Japanese mobiles Of
their fiefs in 1868 was hardly more re-
markable. It means a tremendous change
in the life Of Japanese women. The No
vember Century will have reproductions
from pilot ograp hs Of these interesting and
unique tableaux, which pictured famous
female characters in the history of an
cient, medieval and eighteenth century
Japan. *.

THE MAGAZINE SAMPLER

Britons Fear the kaiser's Intentions
Several magazine articles in recent
months have shown very clearly that
there is deep-seated apprehension on the
part Of Englishmen that Emperor William
is a. false friend Of Great Britain. One
of, the latest of such articles appears in
The National! Review for October. ''"Ul-
tor" writing in that magazine, says in
conclusion, referring to the prospective
visit of the kaiser in England: ITO put
it plainly, a ruler whom there Is good
reason to regard as a false friend Of Eng
land can only expect to be received as an
unwelcome visitor"

Trade Report.

Bradstreet's report says weather
conditions have been unfavorable
throughout a wide area, and while
in some instances helpful to retail
trade, extreme cold or heavy SHOWS
have rather sharply cut spring trade
and retarded transportation. There
is a rather conservative feeling found
also in several lines of speculation and
of industry. An exception to this is
found in the south, which section,
stimulated by almost undreamed of
cotton prices, is preparing to plant an
enormous acreage.
Spring trade which was opening
actively in the southwest, has been
brought practically to a standtsill for
the time being by the cold weather.
