BRITISH AROUSED
URGENT NOTE SENT TO RUSSIA

Mob Tries to Assault Russian Am
bassador in London.-king Ed.
ward Expresses Sympathy for suf.
ferers.
London, Oct. 25.-Great Britain yes
terday sent long and urgent note to
the Russian government. officially de-
failing the circumstances Of the amaz-
ing and unexplained attack by the Rus
sian Second Pacific squadron during
the night of October 21st on British
fishing boats in the North sea.
The text of the note has not been
given out, but it is officially stated
from the foreign Office that 1t contains
the significant announcement that the
situation is one which. in the opinion
of his majesty's government. does no.
brook delay"
Everywhere there is evidence of the
very positive opinion that this is no
time for the usual diplomatic dilly-dal-
lying that there must be no delay and
no limit set by Russia to her apology
or the extent Sf compensation for suf-
ferers by what King Edward himself
terms the unwarranted action OF the
Baltic squadron commanders.
There was L hostile demonstration
at Victoria station tonight upon the
arrival of Count Benckendroff, the Rus
sian ambassador to Great Britain. A
crowd gathered and hooted him and at
tempted to break the windows of his
carriage.
Meanwhile the conservative public
and press are remarkably undemon-
strative AS usual the jingo element
demands war, and even in official quay
ters some go so far as to say that 1t
may be necessary to stop the Pacific
fleet, pending settlement of the whole
affair, though this extreme measure, 1t
is believed. will not be necessary. The
King sent the following message to the
mayor Of Hull:
buckingham Palace. Oct. "a, 1904.
ITO His Worship, the Mayor OF HULL
The King commands me to say that
he has heard with profound sorrow OF
the unwarrantable action which has
! been committed against the North sea
fishing fleet and asks you to express the
deepest sympathy of the Queen and his
majesty to the families of those who
have suffered from this most lament
able occurrence. KNOLLYS.
| Francis Knollys. Baron of Favers-
ham, is the private secretary OF King
Edward.
At the Russian embassy 1t was
stated that "the whole affair was so OBJ
viously a mistake, from whatever
cause, that Russia's course was plainly
dictated, namely, apology and ample
compensation.
All eyes are now turned toward St
Petersburg awaiting word from the
Russian government.

CZAR APOLOGIES.

London, Oct. 26.-The inevitable de-
lays of diplomatic procedure appear to

tween Great Britain and Russia arising
from the deplorable North Sea affair.

peror Nicholas himself cablegram ex-
pressing the deepest regret and prac-

a reply conceding every demand for
apology for the act Of aggression
against the British flag, compensation

officers responsible for what is every

tic blunder, and the Russian ambassa.

St. Louis, Oct. 26.-Propelled part OF
the way by its own power and the re-
mainder OF the distance by the wind.
which was blowing at the rate of about
nine or ten miles an hour. the airship
Arrow, owned by Thomas Baldwin OF
San Francisco. in charge of A. Roy
knabenshue Of Toledo, made an unan-
nounced ascension from the aeronautic
course at the Worlds Fair yesterday
and landed near Cahokia, Illinois, a
distance of nearly ten miles, after
flight that attracted the attention OF
thousands of persons who cheered al
most continuously as the big flying ma
chine passed over the Exposition
grounds left the residence section of
St Louis and scared high above the
towering Office buildings of the business
district.
Clingns to the frame work of the
car, his precious foothold an iron tube
that forms one side of the base of the
triangular network of suppors and ribs
OF the airship body, knabenshue d.
rected the movements of his flying ma
chine and maneUvered in circles and
against the wind over the monster ex-
hibit palaces OF the Exposition before
an accident to his motor, which rem
,,ered the big fan-like propellers use
less and curtailed his command OF the
airship.
Notwithstanding the breaking of the
motor, knabenshue did not lose COM
plete control of the machine, but with
the momentum given by the wind he
was enabled to steer the machine in
course that varied several points i'll
each direction from the trend OF the
wind, and land at point of his own
selecting
Steering his balloon so that he could
gain the best speed from the wind.
knabenshue directed its course over
the southwestern residence district of
ST. Louis, where its presence was soon
discovered ard its progress marked by
thousands.
Passing rapidly eastward, the Arrow
reached the downtown district, where
its appearance was the signal for the
greatest excitement. Clerks deserted
their desks, street cars were stopped
and practically all business was sus-
pended while the airship passed over
! the city.
Although then nearly mile high,
Knabenshue could be seen occasionally y
moving backward and forward on his
dangerous standing place, keeping his
ship under control and directing its
movements either upward or down
ward, as he desired.
From the Missouri side he passed to
the Illinois shore of the Mississippi
river and. having completed his self
imposed task, he headed toward Caho-
kia. and brought his airship to the
ground about half mile from that lit
tie hamlet.

What the Japanese Want
Their Children to Be
WHEN LIVING HERE

Ambitious Boys Who Earn Their Ex-

WHEN LIVING HERE

Written for The Evening Star by Bassett Staines.
II don't want my children to forget that
they are Japanese" said japanese mer-
chant who does a large business In New
York and other American cities. but at
the same time want them to become little
Americans. too. 1 want them to have ali
the advantages of an American training.
1 want them to get all the benefits of the
land to which ! belong and the land in
which they live
This is the common feeling of all the
Japanese who live in this country with re-
gard to the bringing up of their children.
The Chinese in America thoroughly i'm
bued with the logged conservatism of their
race. bring their children up as they would
be brought up in China, and seclude them
as far as possible from their American en-
yironment.
Not so the Japanese They do not retain
their native costumes and customs, as their
Chinese cousins do. They adapt themselves
to their surroundings and show the greatest
anxiety to make little Americans out of
their children.
Many of the Japanese families in Ameri-i
can cities are wealthy. their heads being
prominent merchants, professional men,
diplomats or consuls. They live in hand
some suburban homes or sumptuous city
apartments. with surroundings, service.
food and dress as typically American as
though the land of kimonas, chrysanthe-
NUNS and cherry blossoms were not.
Take the case of tn, Japanese consul gen.
eraI in New York. Mr.. Uchida, who lives on
that fashionable thoroughfare. Central
Park West. His little girl and boy are
being brought up in a thoroughly American
way.
The girl. little Motto. charming peach
blossom maiden, Is now on her first visit
to her grandfather's house in Japan. She
is to remain there for two years in order
to learn all about her own country, and
then she will return to America to be fin
ished' like any other future debutante
The boy, five-year-old Isac-whose name
sounds, in his own soft speech, exactly like
that of Jacobs hairy brother in the Scrip
tLses-is one of the brightest of the pupils
at a fashionable New York kindergarten.
His small neighbor, Dishikio Nagasaki the
son of rich banker on Wall street. drinks
with him from the same fountain of knowI-
edge. In manners games and general out
lock on life these two little Japs appear
to be exactly like any healthy, lively Amer
lean boy.
Their Japanese nurses, who wear the pic
turesque dress of their native land, and
teach them the fairy tales and games of
ancient Nippon. are the only distinctively
oriental features in the home life of these
children. In other respects 1t Is like that
of any well-brsd. well-dressed, well-loved
American child And so it is with scores of
ether Japanese youngsters in this broad
land
II should estimate said the editor OF a
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1904-01-16


japanese newspaper published in New
York. that there are at least 500 Japanese
in New YOrk-perhars more Most of them
are men in good poSitionS-merchants and
the like-and many of them are bringing
up their families here
Whenever they can afford to do so, they
send their children to Japan for several
years to be partly educated there and to
learn all about their own country But they
take care that they shall be educated also
in this country and have a thorough Amer
lean training.
''They want them to be both japanese
and American. Sometimes the japanese
training comes first, sometimes the Amer
lean. Many children born here do not see
their native land until they are grown up
and have come out in American society.
Japan, you may be quite sure that they
have been carefully taught to love their
country and reverence their mikado.
''They are just as patriotic as If they had
lived all their lives in Toxic or Kobe instead
of in Washington or in New York l know
of one Japanese youngster, now going to
school here. who used to get into daily
fights with his playmates because he insist
ed that Admiral Ito was greater man than
Admiral Dewey. and the battle of the Yalu
a more glorious victory than the fight in
Manila bay
On the Pacific Coast.
In San Francisco there are considerably
over 5000 Japanese, most of whom are of
the coolie class or occupy mental positions.
The proportion of wealthy Japanese in that
city Is not nearly so large as il is in New
York. Many of the Japs in the Pacific
metropolis marry white women and give up
all idea of returning to their native land
