JAPANESE ROYAL WEDDING

The royal wedding of the crown
prince of Japan, some four years ago
was celebrated with national rejoic-
ing writes Florence Eldridge in her
article on "Yoshihito, Crown Prince OF
Japan" in Parsons. The city OF
Toxic was transformed into veritable
fair ground with arches of flowers, fes-
rivals, numerous professions and con-
gratulatory emblems. A new postage
stamp was issued to commemorate
the happy day. Thousands of people
thronged the streets and gathered to
see the imperial procession pass, stand
ing respectfully with heads reverently
bowed when the cortege appeared.
The costumes worn by the imperial
bride and bridegroom during the cere-
mony w>re fashioned after the court
dresses of centuries ago. The dress of the
crown prince was a flowing robe Of satin.

important part and the Germans who
are in politics seem to have divided into
factions in the senator's home town 1t
is out of this factional disturbance that
the charges against him have grown.
Most of the witnesses who have ap-
peared before the committee are of Ger
man extraction and many of them
speak English with so marked dialect
that the venerable members Of the COM
mittee have difficulty in comprehend
ing what Is said, while the stenographers
are driven to desperation in their en-
deavor to make an accurate report
Charges made by, reputable witnesses
are denied with emphasis by equally
reputable witnesses, so that the result
of the investigation is likely to be clean
bill of health for the senator.
The most serious charge is that made
by Leopold Hahn, whom Dietrich de-
clined to reappoint as postmaster. He
asserted before the committee that Mr.
Fisher, his successor as postmaster, had
told him that he had been Obliged to
pay the senator for his appointment.

mere the Fea To Judge Parker,
the foremost 'favorite son" of New
York, there is no objection anywhere
here. He is man of magnificent pres
ence, of high ability. stainless charac-
ter The trouble is that to so many
he is but name. This is quite to his
credit He has not electioneered, has
made few speeches, has quietly attended
to his duties as the head of the states
court of highest jurisdiction. His leis-
ure is spent upon his plain farm at
Esopus.
Against an instructed delegation Boss
Murphy, of New York city, the new lead
ar of Tammany, has theoretically pro-
tested. Whether he will be found in an
attitude of protest when the convention
| meets is another matter. Hill, as Judge
Parker's close political and personal
friend, will apparently control the con-
vention, and whether the delegation is
instructed or not will matter little, per-
haps, if the unit rule is enforced.
What is rather gratifying to all par
| ties locally concerned is the unexpected
| ly high plane upon which party discus
sions are being maintained. Tammany
| is a name of different sound in the
| cars of the people of the city from what
| it was three years ago. when it was for
merly in power. And for that blessed
relief the people are even now a little
puzzled whether to thank the new boss
Or the young mayor, George B. McClel-
Ian.
Murphy is in appearance a typical
Tammany boss. He has never been
credited with cherishing scruples in
politics or in business where they would
interfere with success. He is of good
stature, clean shaver, with a firm. strong
hin and a set jaw.

Thy full proportions lonely grace
What sturdy health they seem to speak,
How beams with cheerful smiles thy
face!
Oh, Let the orange fiaunt her gold,
The peach her bloom seductive show,
The crane display her purple bold,
The cherry prank in gaudy glow
I'd give them all away for thee,
Pomona's pride, New Englands joy;
Thy ldevotee I'll ever be
To latest days, as when boy.
Symbol thou art of sanity,
soul serene, a temperate life;
In thee we find no vanity,
No idle pomp, no foolish strife
Who would have health and length Of days,
Who would look back on years well spent,
oh, let him join in this thy praise
And learn the secret Of content.

what they have felt they ought to have,
