TRIALS OF DIPLOMATS.
They Were Many in Early Days oi
 American History.

There exists a popular tendency to overrate the delights and to underrate the hardships of the diplomatic life, but however much opinions may differ on this point, there can be no doubt that the office of an American diplomatist in the days of the revolution was no holiday pastime.
 If he was not already in Europe, his journey to his post was beset with Derils graver than those of the ele- ments. In the eyes of the British law, American revolutionists were simply rebels" the reproduction of whose con- duct was likely to be proportionate to their prominence and activity and the seas were secured by British cruisers. the dreaded embodiment of England's maratime supremacy. Deane went abroad secretly before independence was declared, but when his presence in France became known, the British gov ernment asked that he be seized and delivered into it's custody. Franklin sailed for France on 9 small vessel of

SIDE LIGHTS ON THE JAPANESE.

Quite a few interesting side lights on the present war, the social and relig- ious condition of the Japanese people and their feelings toward America, may be found in the communications sent to the daily papers by Japanese residents in this country.
 One of these, signing himself Suchy Ucho, says: "Our country has a code of criminal and civil law, and we have assimilated only the good in western civilization. We have our telegraph lines, railroads. and even a female nor nal school Our art and literature are distinctly our own and original, and little known or understood
 Another says: Japan has it's own chivalry, with all the delicacy of that of Europe, except the worship of beauty, and Japanese can be virtuous and generous from principle. independ- ent of religion
 In a lecture reported in the New York papers, Dr. Toyokichi Iyenaga told the legend of the goddess of music who recalled sunlight to the world. and added that Commodore Perry, in sim liar manner, had brought the light of civilization to Japan. As to the relig- icus future of his country. he ques-

toned if Buddhism would entirely dis

toned if Buddhism would. entirely dis appear or Christianity altogether tri- umph; but he thought one would modl- fy the other. or perhaps there would be a Japanese form of Christianity.
 However this may be, one thing is certain, and that is that Christianity is already exerting large influence in JaDanese affairs. Many of her army officers, the commanders of at least two of her battleships and quite number of representatives in the national leg islature belong to the Christian faith, and so do also nearly 150,OOO of her population. This number will be great ly increased in the near future. It is one of the good things of western civili- ation which Japan can safely adopt. even though she should eventually leave the impress of her own national ity upon 1t.

so the two old friends passed on up in the lift, and the whiff of the roses ana violets that came to them from the afternoon reception reminded them both of their barefoot boyhood. N You see James," said the rich man who his friend had noticed had con- tracted a somewhatstately manner or speech, i've had it planned just in that way-the reception roomopenin into the two par'lors and the music room, the smokin room and the conservatory all on one floor so that when we have big party we can have all the room we want. The smokin' room is Moor ish, and there's a balcony with view clear over the river"
 The dining room was on the floor above. It was magnlfcently dim, with raftered ceiling, and great sideboard was laden down with gleaming silver tankards and glass decanters that sparkled like diamonds.
 This James,, said the rich man, sol emnly, lis pure sixteenth century"
 They went above Here everything seemed to be rose and blue and green and white, successions of boudoirs beautiful .as sunrises. The guest suit was being put in readiness for the old friend, and he noticed with some uneas- mess that the sunken onyx bath filed from the center like a fountain spray, forming a filmy shower as it descended. 1t was the very latest thing said his host.
 They passed up beyond model apart ments for the servants, taking to the stairs for this flight and then almost to the roof, and as they did so the million aire relapsed somewhat into the old colloquialism.
 I've a. room up here" he said. "t like to set in. Its not too much to show-I guess its merely the garrett but like it sometimes-whent the house is full of company
 He unlocked the door and led the way into low ceilinged room with windows that were half octagons, this effect on the exterior of the cupola being su- perb. Here the dust lay on things, the furniture was queer looking. and there was an old sofa with a downward bulge in it where a spring had given away.
 There was a black walnut cradle with its little mattress, some wax fruit un- der glass cover with a cardboard motto F Pluribus Unum" in red, white and blue. There were photo graphs showing the rich man and his wife in their awkward youth. posed with scenic effects back of them that were positively startling in their sub- limity. There was also a large en- graving of Washington crossing the Delaware.
 He waved his guest to a seat. Then he dived into an old desk and brought up a brown bottle, two muddy look ing glasses and box of cigars. He sat on the sofa with an air of solid com fort.
 Its different from the rest of the house" he said, because all the things we had when we began housekeepin' was gradually moved up here. Ye' see them rugs and thingc and some of the chairs and tables are centuries old and these-weren't quite old enough they said, v understand? But I'm afraid of them chairs, Jim, and its terrible thing not to be able to sit down in your own house. So like to come up here and set. Here's how, Jimv'

PUMPING WATER.

B. F. Johnson's pumping plant is now in operation and several acres of melon land have been irrigated. The gasoline engine gives the best of satis- faction, as also does the pump. It however, was found to be a little too far from the water to work to the best advantage, and consequently did not run to its fullest capacity. Yes terday it was lowered several feet ard 1t Is expected that it will now give better results.
 The we'll that is being drilled by MT. Hansen's well drilling outfit has now reached a depth of thirty feet and the work is progressing nicely. It s ex- pected that, barring accident, 1t will be finished in the course of the next two weeks.

t. NAMING THE CANAL.

Some people are born without any sense of proportion, and that must have been the fate of the Chicago gen. tlemen who are making the effort of their lives to have the Panama canal called the Hanna Canal" in recogni- ton of Senator Hanna's services to the great enterprise. The Panama canal already has a name and has had 1t for the last thirty years. This name is an ideal one, because it is impersonal, undersigned, geographical, historical and descriptive. To change it now in honor of any human being would be absurd, undeserved and little short of ilegious.-Chicago Chronicle.

JAPAN's PROMISES.

It has been pointed out that Japan has declared, both before and since the war began. that she stood for and would continue to stand for the inteG- rity of China and Korea. In that case the victory of Japan would be followed by no injurious effects to American commerce in those parts of the orient. The Japs have always scrupulously observed their diplomatic promises. Another guarantee that Japan will keep her promise-if she wins-lies in the fact that her ally. England. is strongly in favor of Chinese integrity, and the open door, and for the same reason as the United States-trade. In spite of pressure Russia has not in- dicated how she would treat Korea in the event Of her victory.-Chicago Fri bune.
