One of Uncle Sans naval officers,

ers, and they are true sportsmen.
Even the umpire is safe over there.
They never dispute decisions, and
when the game is over they treat
their opponents with great hospitality.
Teachers in their schools, at least
many of them, have been educated in
the universities over here, and prob
ably introduced the sport over there.
And the people have taken to j.
readily.
"They are not good at football be-
ing too light, but they are much bet
ter than would be expected on the
diamond. At fielding they are fine. If
ever fly is batted out the player
might as well go to the bench. They
are fairly good at the bat, and the
great weakness is in their pitching.
Somehow they haven't caught the
trick.
when the Japs play they don't
wear shoes, and their headgear is a
long Japanese towel worn like an old
nanny wears a bandana. Their
masks and their gloves are made in
Japan. At Tokyo I have seen 10000
people at game and every time a
good play was made, no matter by
whom, they would all applaud. After
game we would be invited to join in
a regular feast, at which the Ameri-
can and Japanese flags would be
crossed and everybody would be made
to feel like hero.

gained his greatest fame as the author
Of ben Hur." President Hayes made
him Governor Of New Mexico, and
Garfield sent him as Minister to Tur-
key. He wrote a life Of President
Benjamin Harrison, and various novels
since 1888. He wrote only by laborious
study and painstaking toll. He was
his own best critic, and scrutinized
every line before he let it appear in
his final copy. His habit was to write
the rough draft Of his ideas on slate,
so that erasures could be made easily,
then to transfer the writing with a
soft pencil to paper, and finally, when
all was to his satisfaction, to copy the
book in ink with the precision Of a
clerk. When ben Hur" was sent to
Harpers it was beautifully executed
In purple ink, every line of exact
length, every page Of writing almost
identical in the number Of words with
an ordinary printed page. This was
the book that the publishing house hes
1tated for time about accepting, fear
ing that it might not prove a financial
success. 1t is said that ben Hur"
has been translated into every impor.
tant tongue in the world.
The general had fine home in

rambling house with acres of ground.
