JAPANESE PRINCE ROBBED.
His Apartments Visited While He Was
Seeing the Fair.

St. Louis, Nov. 25.-Two handsome
diamonds rings and one pearl ring
belonging to Prince Sananaru Fushi-
mi Of Japan and a beautifully en-
bossed emblem belonging to A. Sato,
grand master of ceremonies at the
Japanese court, the gift and decora-
tiOn of a European monarch to Mr..
SatO, have been stolen from the
apartments Of the royal visitors at the
Buckingham club while the prince and
his suite were visiting the worlds
fair grounds.
The missing jewels were the favorite
ornaments of the mikado's cousin, and,
besides aggregating in value, it is said,
between $4,000 and $4,000, were heir
looms.
1t was his special fondness to wear
them on all state functions, as their
history was interviewer with his pub
lie life. The stolen decorations be-
longing to A. Sato are valued for its
associations and the high station OF
the donor.

Canada and the United States, which
would result Immediately in great

preach to good congregations during the heated

And so gratifed is he with the results that desir
ing to attract still larger number Of worshipeTs,
he has posted this notice on the church door;
"With the opening Of the heated term the pastor
will be gratifed II our ladies attend public worship,
especially in the evening, without their hats, and
gentlemen would be in good form should they adopt
negligee costumes that all may worship in comfort"
In recOunting the success Of the experiment, the
Brooklyn Eagle mentions young woman, dressed
in the style indicated with no hat and "elbow
Sleeves" who said to q reporter; "YOu ought to
see us going to church over here Sunday evenings.
We look Just like picnic party, all but the pickles
and fried chicken" Not an especially piOus way
Of looking at it, perhaps, nor, the other hand,
necessarily irreverent one. The main fact brought
out was that the young woman and her friends we're
going to church, when perhaps they would have
stayed away II they had felt obliged to "6x up'' to
the extent Of suffering from the heat And Why
should anybody be shOcke6i The adaptation Of

Let us see about this: If q man drank four glasses

Some Of the editors profess surprise that such
