miliar with the enigmatical features of
Japanese character, believe that in
accounting for this marvellous strate-
gic achievement a large place must
be given to the persistent esotericism
which forms so marked Characters
tic Of the whole nation.
In Japan esotericism is a fine art.
Here in the West the word reminds us
only of Buddhlstlc cults or the occult
vagaries of the late Madam Blatvat-
sky, but In Japan the word stands for
life itself. A not inconsiderable ex-
perience among the natives OF Dai
Nippon leads me to the conviction that
they always have secrets to keep, and
that none knows better how TO keep
them. The humblest citizen of Toxic
is absolutely silent on any question
he deems none of the foreigners bust
ness. and there Is everywhere among

reticence on all matters OF which it is
thought the foreigner may disapprove.
This obtains more so on questions UNI
der the ban OF the censor.
No offense in the category OF crime
is deemed worthy of more condign
punishment than the giving away of
secrets, or even intermeddling with
them. One of the greatest Ministers
of State. Viscount Mort, who had
graced the office of Plenipotentiary at
the Court of st. James and also as
Minister at Washington, was stabbed
to death by a government clerk for
daring to push aside with his cane a
curtain that guarded the secret cham
Der where only a priest might gaze
on the repose of the imperial ances'
tors. In Japan the secrets of the
dead are as inviolable as those of the
living.
