EETIcEB INTO A SALOON
A Woman Found by the Police in a
 State Of Intczication.

A very disshraceful thing came to the notice of the police yesterday. Word was received at the station in the after noon that a man had been seen taking woman and a girl into, one of the hack rooms of the Palace. Officers Bar nett and Moore went over and found a young man. a woman and a girl in short dresses. apparently about four teen years old. They took them out and made inquiry about the girl and ihe woman. The latter was found to be the wife of a physician who has been srending the winter in the valley for his health. but who has lately gone away. Just who the girl is is not yet known. but she is supposed to be the daughter of a respectable family living in the neighborhood of the tent. The woman was under the influence of liruor and the girl showed signs of the unaccustomed drink They were put into their buggy. basket seated ve- h!cle and started towards home They had evidently visited other saloons about town before they were noticed. for the woman could not have reached inc state Of intoXication in which she was found in the short time she was in me tttldcF- ln Idct, II was not known by the management of the saloon that the woman and girl were there at all.
 The young man, who gave the name Of Jake Roberts, was taken to the sta lion and questioned about the affair. He told a story which was not believed and in which. Adam-lil1e. he put the blame wholly upon the woman He said he was an old acquaintance of hers; that nc used to know her in Kentucky. He said he saw her on the street in an adva need condition of drunkenness and merely took her into the Palace to sobe- her up. His case was one with which the police could not deal Ac- ccrdingly complaint was made against him in Justice Burnett's court. He was put under bond to appear there today.
 In this connection it may be said that the DOlice have under surveillance sev- erai young men who will be given a painful jolt shortly Complaint. has been made against them of hanging about the schoOlhouses trying to estab-

THE ELDER STATESMEN.
A Wonan's Opinion of the Five Wise
 Men cf Japan.

It may be well to explain what is
 meant by the Elder Statesmen, who must be constantly referred to in all affairs connected with the policy and control of Japan. They are not mem bers of the ca binet. They hold DO fixed office. but they are in a sense above both cabinet and the official
 staff.
 There are five of them at the present time. They are the ex-prime ministers who have served Japan with wisdom
 and loyalty in the past in office. Upon their retirement from office it is felt that the country still has need of their accumulated wisdom, and she retains them as advisers to the emper- or; himself a very able man, deeply revered and beloved by his subjects,
 who believe him to be the ablest and most incorruptible ruler on the earth. It is as if our ex-secretaries of state. war and finance, who had served with marked distinction and ability, ire | spective of party, could be called at any time as advisors to and with the president in his recommendations to
 the cabinet and to congress. The system is designed to hold for the nation it's ripest wisdom and en- | list in her behalf, to the end of their
 lives, the loyal advice and help of her strongest and best equipped men. At the present time they are Marquis
 Ito, Marquis Yamagata, Count Matsu-
 kata. Marquis Oyama and Count In-
 ouye.
 So hesitant have the emperor, these elder statesmen and the cabinet been
 to resort to arms in their contest with Russia that many of the stronger young men have blamed them bitterly
 and felt that their course would sub
 ject Japan to the contempt of the na- ! tions, who would get the idea that she was weak. vacillatinS and afraid. Out of this situation grew the ex- traordinary reply, by the newly elect ed president of the diet. to the emper-
 or at the converting of that body a few weeks ago-the first time that such a thing ever happened in Japan. 1 Some of the radical men wanted to make sure that the emperor was not
 misled by the counsel of a too con | servative body of advisors so that he | did not realize the existing sentiment II
