PRINCE .FUSHIMI PUT
TRADITION IN PERIL
Fearless Conduct at Nanshan Hill Threatened TO Upset
Theory That Imperial Family Have Charmed Lives.

Lieutenant General Prince Fushimi
the Mikado's special envoy 20 the St
Louis exposition. is the senior imperial
prince OF Japan, and warrior who
saw service IN Formosa In 1895, and IN
the present war In Manchuria.
He commanded the first division at
the battle OF Nanshan Hill and exposed
himself TO the perils OF that sharp en-
gagement with utter abandon. IL -
said that one Of the reasons for his
transfer 10 q pacific mission was the
fear that he would upset one Of the ira
ditions Of the country by getting IN
the way Of a hostile bullet. the tradition
in question being that member or the
imperial family bears a charmed life
and is inVulnerable in war. Great pre-
cautions are taken 10 uphold this ira
ditiOn, IL is said, and II has been the
fashion TO conceal the Intelligence Of
deaths OF royalties from the public as
long as possible. and 10 make the an
nouucement that the departed one has
decided 10 go on journey 70 MS ances-
tors. No hint of a violent death Is
allowed 10 escape. Fushimfs fearless
conduct made IL difficult TO uphold the
tradition in the contingency OF his vio-
lent death
The uncertainty that nOws prevails
concerning the fate OF General kurOh
is instance which illustrates the policy
OF the Japanese government with re-
speCt TO this tradition. for while KurOki
Is not of the imperial blood, and Is not
by tradition inVulnerable, the same rea-
sons for cOucealment OF untOWard cir
Cumstances appeal in his case. II he
perished in the battle OF Liao-Yang. /;

COLOR QUESTION
IN THE SCHOOLS
KeniIWOPth Protest Has
Caused a Quandary
LAW ON THE SUBJECT7
John Colvin Claims That He Is Not of
Negro, But Is of Indian,
Extraction.
LAW ON THE SUBJECT?

'Is there a law In the District requir-
ing separate schools for whites and ne
groes?"
Il do not know Of such a law"
The above question, with reply by Dis
trict Commissioner Macfarland, indicates
the quandary in which the Commission
ers have been placed by the Kenilworth
Citizens Association protest that the
three children of John Colvin. an al
legged negro, are now attending the
Kenilworth school for whites.
The protest was referred this morning
to the Board Of Education by the Com
mIssiOners FOR report
ROdTick Knows Of No Law.
The secretary Of the board, Mr.. Rod
rick, said today he knew OF no law re-
quiring negroes and whites to attend
separate public schools He was OF the
opinion that the board would take up
the KeniIwOrth proposition tomorrow
night in its regular meeting. He thought
no action was taken on the problem
because Colvin claimed ne had Indian,
not negro. blood in his veins.
1t was cOntended by some at the Dis
trlct Building today that the tenor and
purpose Of all the laws relating TO the
public school system in the District
and also most of the appropriation acts
affecting the schools have been based
upon classification of the negro and
white schools on distinctly separate
lines.
II is argued b. a high legal authority
that the Board Of Education. under the
act Incorporating it. has ample authOf0
ity. In its administrative scope. 70 de
eide whether or not negroes shall at
tend white schools.
Is Gown a Negro?
The main point. however, now seems
10 be 10 decide whether or not Colvln Is
a negro. He has assured the Board OF
Education that ne Is in no sense a ne
gro The Kenilwozth Association, on
the other hand. has declared him a ne
gro. Now that the Commissioners have
taken hold OF the matter IL viii be def
nitely settled in some way
