ing the approach of the diplomats under some
trees the bend of a wide avenue, where
genial greetings and introductions of dgnitaries
took place and much stately courtesy was inter
changed.
Of the meetings with the men who since distinguish
ed themselves in the war with Russia none is more
pleasant to recall than the Marquis Oyama who has
been Marshal of the Japanese armies in Man
churia A tall, stout broad shoudered man. with
frank almost boyish face and infectious laugh,
he had suggestion of the grim warrior the terror
of the Russians. When friendly vscount present
ed the General to me, there seemed certain incon-
gruity between the porty figure with the broad
breast covered with decorations and orders and the
peculiar light and Waiting step with which he adj
vanced. He proved a pleasing personality, how
ever, and delightful half-hour spent in his
pany. He could not speak English, but was fluent
in the of French, and quick at catching ones
meaning when attempts at Japanese were made by
the hating foreign tongue.
Our pleasant converse brought to halt
by call to proceed to open space a short
distance away, to greet the Emperor and EN-
press, who we're their way. The diplomats ar
ranged themselves one side of the graveled path,
with attaches and invited guests the other. Our

~ M1kados Park appear one glorious
day in autumn, when at his COM
mand brilliant company of foreign dpo-
mats and ministers of state assembled in
the enchanting environments to enjoy the hos
pitality of their imperial host. 1t a
chrysanthemum fete, and all, including the
Emperor himself, had assembled to do hon.
age to the royal flower of Japan.
Meeting in one of the beautiful rooms of the
palace, the procession of dignitaries formed
and took its way toward the rendezvous
most picturesque and striking effect was pro-
duced by the gay dresses of the European Z
women the brilliantly uniformed attaches,
the members of the different legations in their
national costumes, and the ancient court
dresses of the Japanese women, which trans
formed them from little gray moth-like
creatures, into great splendid butterflies, all
crimson, purple, green and gold. All this
splendid display of brilliant cooring, glittering
helmets and jewel-incrusted swords was head
ed by a venerable, stately figure in plain
citizens clothing the Ambassador of the
United States.
Under cover and shaded by curtains of
royal purple bearing the Emperors crest il
gold, the chrysanthemuns, Japan's pride anc
glory, the chosen emblem of the imperial house
bloomed in royal state. Brought to a wonderful
degree of perfection, the blooms were infinite IL
variety and exquisite in coloring None but the
patient nature-oving Japanese gardener ever coulC
have succeeded in attaining such perfection. Some
of the stalks bore from five to eight hundred flowers
EACH while others cultivated to produce one
gorgeous bloom.
Each variety had separate name indicated upor
a small tablet, suggested by its appearance. Some
of the poetical and pretty. One great
sCarlet-and- golden flower called Colder
Dragon" An oval golden yellow cluster was
named Golden Bells" pure-whte variety with
wide petals was The Moon the Snow" while
another white one of pyramid shape was The Snow
Mount" lovely one of pink was named Pretty
Girl One beautiful variety of buff with sun
set red lining was called The Robe of Autumn
Leaves" Graceful Stork," Lamp on the Snow "
Eternal Spring" Dancing Girl" Rampant
Lion" were some of the fanciful attached
to various plants all suggestive of the beauty OF
the flowers.
A poem hung to of the stems which the guests
eager to read 1t written in a childish
hand and roughly translated read:
When visited this garden
Not cloud in the sky,
Not breath of wind earth.
The charming flowers were dressed as gaily
As the lovely ladies who to view Them
Both showing forth the skill of the gardener
And the wisdom of their Creator

the chrysanthemum pavilions, until they joined

neck and bosom snowy white, while her killed
skirt visible where the rich outer robe swept back
a rich crimson She shoes, and carried
a French parasol the deep fringe of which hung
down SO as almost to conceal her face. She was
dainty, but snall-not larger than child of ten
in America-and had pleasant oval face, with the
high aristocratic features and full under lip, so
much admired in Japan. She was powdered pro-
fusely, and her hair fattened out halo
like frame all round her head, with a we-oiled
tress hanging nearly to the hem of her robe at
the back The maids of honor who followed her

pie scarlet green and blue.

took in the royal presence The Emperor and
Empress their elevated seats slipped lemonade
and in silence observed their strange guests, but
ate nothing themselves. They were doubtless
shocked to the European waited upon
by princes, counts, lords, admirals and other
digntaries ordering them to bring them this that
dainty to remove their plates, and eatng-yes
actually eating in company! The younger Japanese
men We'd with the others in polite attentions and
must have presented strange sight to the older
generation who had been accustomed to see the

various conveyances at the gates and were soon
out of the charming palace grounds into the prosaic
streets of Toxic, hieing homeward with pleasant
recollections of an Emperors hospitality.

to a face already long-not handsome, but
a face full of dignity and character when at
rest. When he held out his hand to a German
Countess, she bent in a swift curtsy over

the Mikado caught a surprised, half-amused
expression on his face as if he thought: well,
this is a new kind of obeisancel"
1t was interesting to learn from one of
the Japanese men that the Emperor objects
to extremes of fashion of any kind, and when
wide sleeves pulled at the shoulders were in
fashion some years ago he objected to the
Empress wearing them her foreign
dresses, and SO, like a dutiful wife, she ap-
peared with moderate-sized sleeves when
everyone else wore the immense balloon
sleeves of the period.
The Empress followed, dressed in Japanese
court robes of beautiful brocade. The outer
robe was of lovely deep blue, upon which

Of goods over land and sea, political
party-th Republican released
this giant, who threatens to make every
one perform his bidding.
That is why. for instance, in the city
Of Philadelphia, the people have arisen
TO curb the power Of the gas corporation;
that is why in every community the lead
ers are being defed and why issues are
being forced.
This is not an "off year. this is an
eon year" The present intense interest
bears no relation to oea offices, except
so far as candidates for those Offices
are marked" as being affiliated with
such corporations as have not drawn the
line between fair returns for capital in
vested and taking the whole thing.
The Republican party has itself 10
hlame, because in the struggle for posi-
tion, it surrendered itself body and soul
to those influences from which it cannot
rid itself But in this matter the inde-
pendent voter will probably take hand,
and all the party leaders between the
two oceans viii not be able to throttle
either the free speech Of its own follow
ers, Or the seeking for knowledge and the
demand for reform On the part Of the

That is why there IS discomfort, and
that is Why. as the questions at issue be-
come better understood, there win be

President Roosevelt is making an ef-
fort to seothe China's injured feelings in
regard to the Chinese exclusion law, in
the hope that the threatened boycott of
American goods by Chinese merchants
will not become effective. Instructions
have been sent to the American Embassy
at Pekin to protest at the foreign Office
against Chinese officials encouraging the
hostile movement against American .rade
interests.
Officials Of the immigration service
Lave also bssa reformed that the utmest
care must be taken in the enforcement
Of the exclusion laws. so that no injustice
may be done TO almond eyed aliens
seeking admission to this country. The
President desires that the statutes bar-
ring Chinese shall be observed to the lat
ter, but he believes that they can be en-
forced in manner that will save the
feelings Of those turned back, end give
rise TO retaliatory measures on the part
Of China. The complaint of Sir Chem
tung Liang cheng. the Chinese Minister
at Washington, is that the laws are not
only enforced in violation Of China's
treaty rights, but that they are admin
istered in harsh and cruel spirit, that is
most humiliatins 10 his eoaft :snea.
American exporters of cotton goods to
China are much worried over the pros
pect Of having their trade with that
country cut of BY a boycott The State
Department has received large number
Of letters from influential manufacturers
in various parts of the country-parsi-
cularly in the south-urging that some
thing be done to cut short the hostile
movement Shipments Of American cot
ton goods to China aggregate something
ike S2o,oooooo a year, and this entire
trade is, in danger of being wiped out
The Chinese Minister protests that his
Government has nothing whatever to do
with the boycott but he asserts with
emphasis that the people are in earnest
in this matter. No secret is made Of the
fact that be fears the exclusion policy
Of the United States may extend to other
nations, and that eventually the hand
Of all the world will be turned against
the ohinaman.
