Governor had promised to stop any pros
ecution and also to lease the road the
Nuisance Dlsturber came out and denied
there had been any agreement or under
standing. That made EN- mad because
they had whispered it from Dan to Beer
Sheeba that there had been any agreement
or understanding. That made EN- mad be-
cause 1T put the Finch McBee folks in the
light of stating what was not warranted.
And, so then they went about
saying that the Nuisance Disturber was
denying there was any agreement when
the editor OF that paper was a party to
it."
Question: Does anybody in Raleigh
believe that?'
Answer: 90, yes; McBee, Finch. Bill
day, w. S. o. B. X. Y. T., the revenue
ring, the Southern Railway gang of
rooters, the Cigarette Trust tooters, and
all we Radicals. And we are powerful
glad to get something on that Nuisance
Disturber, too, whether true or false And
you better believe that we'll give it to
that paper row.
Question-"What do the Democrats
saY?'
Answer: What do they say? They
swear that the Nuisance Disturber's true
name is The Old Reliable" and they are
swearing by it like they always do. OF
course there are few of them, under
their breath, who say that they hope its
wings will be clipped, because it has been
after some of their schemes, for that
derned paper won't stand for any rings,
or trickery in the Democratic party, or
among Democratic officials"
Question-"Does Solicitor Jones say
that any agreement was made or that the
Governor asked him not to prosecutor"
Answer. mo; ne says he has heard of
agreements only from street rumor Capt.
Bilday, W. S. OBJ, and attorneys for
Finch and McBee.
Question ''What did the Governor tell
Solicitor Jones to do?'
Answer. 1.-The Governor told the Sole
itor that the Solicitor knew the law,
knew his duty, and that he ought to do
whatever his cath demanded, and
that tie Governor wished the solicitor to
understand that he (the Governo) had
not made any agreement about the matter
and that he had no request to prefer, and
did not wish him to be guided in his Off
cial duty by any report of any agreement
that the Governor had made, for none had
been made
And that ended the questioning. 1t was
nearly night AS the men were getting
ready to go home, one said: II do not know
which is the worst thing that gang has
done-tried to steal the railroad or tc
niure the Governor and the Attorney
General by charging them with making g
wrongful agreement"
"By gum" said jeremiah Gully, as he
mounted his horse, "I think Che whole
derned business is alike, piece of radical
and railroad deviltry, conceived in sin and
brought forth in iniquity. The first time
go to Raleigh I am going to see the
Governor and tell him, for the sake of his
own reputation. and the good of the State,
to instruct his private secretary not ever
again to permit any man of the conspir-
acy gang to enter his office, and if one
sneaks in to fling him out the back win

The Mikado's Subjects in Anericd

The japanese living in the United
States could form an army to go to
the aid of their countrymen in the Far
East if they thought it were necessary
to do so. There are over $4,000 of
them, according to the official records
kept at the japanese Legation at
Washington. Practically all of them
are listed there.
The largest number in any Ameri-
can city is in San Francisco. There.
are over five thousand there, most of
whom are of the coolie class and oc-
cupy humble positions as domestic
servants and laborers. In New York
there are about fifteen hundred, the
great majority of whom are highly
educated and well-to-do men. New
York was surprised by the announce
ment that the local Japanese interd-
ed to raise 4 war fund of five million
dollars, but they are, we'll able to do
it, for many of their leading. merchants
and bankers are m1lllonalres several
times over. Some OF the japanese
were surprised at the moderation of
the amount.
There are large and wealthy Jap
anese colonies at Seattle, Baltimore,
Philadelphia, Boston. Chicago, ST.
Louis, Minneapolis and other cities.
But a good half of the Mikado's sub
iectS IN America are distributed
around the various colleges and other
educational institutions, where they
are getting sound American educa-
ton. After they finish their academic
course, they often work at very small
salaries for American business and
professional firms in order to gain a
thorough knowledge of commerce,
law, engineering, or whatever they in
tend to make their calling in life.
Nearly all of these American Jap
anese read, write and speak English
fuently, and have adapted themselves

OF these spendlngs are marked by I'm
reason.
In the World Extravagant time is a
commodity to be spent freely, given
away, or even wasted at the pleasure
of its owner. Nor does it matter that
his time may not be his OWN 1t is at
the disposal of himself or his friends,
and, in defiance of all reason, it is
squandered at the demand of the mo-
ment
Enthusiasm, too, is spent riotously
by these unreasonable people. Why,
on some. trifle like clever book or a
yellow 'daffodil, they will waste en-
sthusias1n enough to build a church.
. Reckless, too, are they in the mat
ter of emotions. Their joy or grief
is unbounded, even though the cause
thereof be only cup Of tea or lost
transfer.
Sentiment, too, forms all easy outlet
for the forces of the World Extrava-
giant, Not sentimentality-that is a
makeshift, and only used by Econo-
mists. But real, true sentiment, origi-
mating in the heart and bubbling out
through the brain, is prominent
characteristic.
Sympathy and advice are also dis
pensed in large quantities, not usually
at the same time, for the World Ex-
travagant is rational, if unreasonable
and sensible people rarely give advice
to those with whom they truly sympa-
.thize. The World ENtravagant works
wildly, plays passionately and rests
rapturously.
AS a natural result of this, the
World Extravagant is we'll informed
and it dispenses its information freely
This explains why SO many of its PEG
pie write historical novels Or become
noted as after-dinner speakers
s But there is another reason for these
achievements, and that is the extrava-
giant ambitions that prevail.
Extravaganza of ambition is a pow
:erful factor Of success, and, as a rule,
you will find that the winners in life's
race belong to the world we are dis
-cussing. One Mr.. Browning said:
".Ah, but mans reach must exceed
his grasp,
Or what's: Heaven for?"
. But if one has an extravagant
grasp, as well as an extravagant reach,
he can count upon a little of heaven
on earth. Success is very sweet to
the World Extravagant. AS they
work harder for it than the Econo-
mists, so they enjoy it mere fully and
with greater zest And failure means

thoroughly to American ways. Their
children are usually educated in the
public schools, and only in few cases
do they have japanese. tutors. But
their parents carefully instruct them
in the Japanese language and history.
and inculcate lessons OF patriotism
and loyalty to the Mikado from their
earliest youth
In most cities the Japanese residents
keep closely in touch with one another
by means of patriotic societies and
clubs. This is particularly the case
in New York, where the Consul Gen
era1, Mr.. Uchida, is constantly pro-
noting movements which keep the ma
tional sentiment of his expatrlated
countrymen alive.
1T is remarkable" said a prominent
Japanese in this country, how close
ly the Japanese here stick to one an
other The lines of caste and class,
which are rather closely drawn in
Japan, soon become obliterated in this
democratic land. None of us asks
whether his fellow-countryme is de-
scended from samurai or coolie stock,
whether he belongs to the Satsuma
clan or the Chosu clan. If he is a
good. loyal son of Nippon, that is
enough. We give him what you call
the glad hand'''
In San Francisco. there are several
newspapers published in japanese and
English for the Japanese colony. In
New York there is a weekly journal
published in Japanese and a monthly
review published in English.

any considerable extent, as do practi-

however small they may be. Many of
them are Christians, and the rest do
not appear to trouble about religious
observances at all. "A good many OF

# LITTLE NONSENSE FOR THE UIyE

more to them, too. They are more
cast down, more discouraged, and in
the extravaganza of their disappoint-
ment find it harder to rise again. But
they do rise; for. as there is more
good in life than evil, more hope than
despair, more JOY than sorrow, more
faith than doubt, so the extravaganza
nature grasps for the greater truth,
and, buoyed. up by its own enthusiasm,
begins all over again.
The friendship of a TRUE apostle of
the World EXtravagant is delightful
thing. Not necessarily unshakable,
unbreakable, or even unmistakable, but
it has charm and fascination of its
own. Unlike the more sterling sorts,
it is temporary, even ephemeral, but by
its very extravaganza it Grams into its
short life all the joys with which a
more economical and prosaic friend
ship would fill long years. 1t is like
some of our strange modern stage
plays, which are aptly' called extrava-
ganzas. They exhibit enough scintil
lating spectacular scenery and glori
ously-garbed girl-groups to furnish
forth half dozen separate shows. But
the World Extravagant enjoys and
applauds extravagantly, and all is well.
Another extravaganza of these abb
surd people is language.
Exaggeration is their washpot, over
Hyperbole have they cast their shoe.
Adjectives form the bulk of their
speech, and their multitudinous adj
verbs qualify verbs, participates and
other adverbs. But, having large
and extravagant vocabulary, few OF

One of the greatest Extravagants

Bats a Foot Deep.

In the Philippines a very strange
sight is often presented, toward even
ing, to the traveller Sometimes he
will see a steady torrent of black
specks shooting out from under a
single tile of some big convent roof.
AS he approaches he will hear a
strange twittering murmur where the
stream melts into the darkness of the
coming night.
These are the bats, no larger than
beetles, that spend their days in the
garrets and belfrys of the churches, so
thick that they cover the walls foot
deep, hanging to each other. At night
thew go out, always by the one hole,
even if there be hundreds of others
