While our procession OF seven men
and three rickshas was passing
through the streets of Yokohama, we
ran across little Miss Burgess. whom
we had known on the ship. She sat
at our table; and how she laughed at
US when she met US in Yokohama We
promised to meet her at tifin Con the
don't know why). On our return, she
called on us at the hotel and settled a
bet.

Japan, as YOU know, is very noun
famous The people have terraced
the sides of the mountains, with great
labor, and grow crops on the terra ces.
Where there are little valleys, they are
usually devoted to rice, and the rice
crop is just now being harvested. The
growing of rice seems a very great
task; it is grown in muddy lagoons
and the crop is harvested mainly bv
women, who wade into the mud up to
their knees The women are very
useful in Japan they work as much
rs the men. In this the Japanese are
like the French again. The Japanese
remind me of the French in many
ways.
While out in the country. we saw
winter wheat growing on plots OF
ground a few hundred feet square.
that was another strange sight to g
Kansas man. These wheat fields
would be situated in terraces on the
mountain side; and the farming is
perfect: every foot of space is util-
lied The men and the women work
together, and the little girls take care
of the children smaller than them
selves. z. W H.

The legal adviser OF the japanese peace
commission is a Vermonter, and he did
not come from Brattleboro. His native
town is little Guildhall, in Essex county,
where the famous Benton family orig
mated. and where Charles A. Dana spent
his boyhood days, Mr.. DeniEon Is IS
years old. and as youth was clerk in
Tie war department in Washington. He
studied law In Columbian university at
Washington and In 1859 went to Kama
gawa, Japan, where he remained ten years
as United States vice consul before re-
signing to practice law in Yokohama, In
May, 1880, he accepted the invitation to
act as a legal adviser to the foreign
office of Nippon, and in that capacity he
saw the historic days OF the Shimonoselxi
treaty. Sometimes. at his hreast. you
may see the souvenir OF those days;-ft Is
the grand Gordon OF the Order OF the
Sacred Treasure which his majesty, the
Emperor OF Japan. presented to him as
a token of his appreciation for the ser.
vices to the state. He had no small role
to play in bringing about the Anglo
Nippon alliance. In 1900 he was one of
the men who represented Japan at The

called being recorded as successful. The
stock .yurds war heads the list OF victories
which tthe employers achieved through
their alliances or associations. A rout for
uniohism almost as complete followed in
the defeat of the garment workers strike.
The machinists, after ten months of fight
ing have sufficient strength left to begin
the reorganization OF their forces. Com
pleting the list of big strikes lost Is the
recent teamsters' conflict. A dozen or
more strikes OF minor Importance waged
within the year add little to the credit
side of organized labor's account Some
of these contests were won by unions;
more of them were lost, abandoned or left
TO fritter away. The total monetary loss of
the teamsters' strike is estimated at Ss,-
900, 900, and in addition the reputation and
credit of Chicago were damaked through
it's rioting and bloOdshed resulting from
the strike. The strike was entirely need
less in the first place. The 1900 teamsters
were satisfied with their wages, but struck
out of sympathy" for a few garment
workers who had a grievance against a
single concern. During the teamsters'
strike 10 persons were killed in the streets
of Chicago and hundreds were injured,
some being crippled for life.

The Seawanhaka cup, the famous
yachting trophy which has been held in
Canada the past 10 years, will return to
the United States. 1t was put up by the
Seawanhaka club Of Long Island and the
first year successfully defended, but in
the second year was lost to the Canadian
challenger, the Glencarin of the Royal
ST. Lawrence yacht club. 1t then be-
came necessary for the Americans to 20
to Canada to attempt to lift the cup the
races being sailed on lake ST. Louis.
Three successive years boat Of the
Seawanhaka club failed to regain the
trophy. Then English challengers and
other Americans essayed to beat the
Canadians, but not one was successful
until this year the Manchester, designed

The outbreak of yellow fever in New
Orleans has assumed alarming proportions,
but 1t Is believed that with the present
knowledge of the disease and the strict
application Of sanitary measures a great
epidemic will be averted. The first cases
appeared about two weeks ago and at the
present time AZ deaths have occurred
among $50 patients. A force OF $50 men
are now employed to destroy an breeding
grounds of mosquitoes and strtct duhran-
tine regulations are enforced, Four de-
tention camps have been opeted outside
the city. There are row 16 points Of
infection outside the Original district, but
all cases are traceAbIe to the original
point of contagion, and nearly all are in
Italian families, The disease'was brought
by n vessel FROM iHonduras.tand 1t is re-
markable that fiA8ehna h4s now insti-
tuted a quarantine aSgAinstfNew Orleans.
Previous to the clcIAsiAgbf Havana the
disease was in existence ehere every year
and caused thousands Sf'sleaths. 1t was
from this plague spot thslt the yellow jack
was carried into New Orfe ans and other
cities Only a few cases of yellow fever
have been known In HIavana since the
American occupation~of the city, and New
Orleans has been entirely free from the
scourge for 'seveTSl years.

The story that new survey shows
that the villages Of Riehford, East Rich
ford and Stevens Mill on the Vermont
border. are in Canada might be put under
the head. Important, II True" The 45th
parallel Of north latitude IL the boundary
between Vermont and Canada, but as
matter VI fact there are variations in
the line 50 that 1t does not correspond
with the parallel. 1t viii be impossible,
however, to make any change in the
boundaries because of long acceptance by
both Canada and the United States OF
the present line under explicit treaty
stipulations The treaty OF 1912 with
Great Britain settled the boundary dis
pute with special reference to the state
Of Maine and the old and inaccurate sur
vey Of the 45th parallel as made by VAL
entine and Collins previously to 1774.
The newspaper discovery that Vermont
holds. Canadian territory, which has been
exploited as a feature will amount to as
much as did a similar one few years ago
which showed that williamstown with
its noted college. a part Of North Adams
and other Massachusetts territory be-
longed in Vermont.

The Vermont Press association was
handsomely entertained by the press of
Brattleboro at its meeting at that place
last week. The committee having the
AFFAIR in charge were untiring In their
efforts and 1t was the unanimous opin-
ion of all that it was one of the best
meetings in the history of the associa-
ton. BrattIeboro is a model New Eng
land village-large enough to be a city.
but II prefers not to be. Its fine resi-
dences, handsome churches and beauti-
ful public buildings. with its well kept
lawns and nicely laid out streets make
"A an IDEAL place of nnsidance. Delight
fully located and beautiful environments
makes Brattleboro one of the handsomest
OF our New England villages.
