'If Japan wins in the war with
Russia and takes over Korea and por-
tions of Manchuria, every japanese
in the United States will return to
those countries" said an educated and
intelligent Japanese to the East Ore
gonian today.
"The japanese are overflowing into
the United States. because there is
no nearer country that offers any op-
portunity. Scarcely native of my
country comes here with the inten-
ton of remaining permanently. Every
one who comes, expects to make a
stake and return home to live in his
own country and in his own way.
Korea offers many inducements
to active, intelligent Japanese, as the
natives Of that country, although Mon
golians and really second cousins to
the japanese, are sluggish and mac
tive and lack energy. Their mines
are not worked, except by Americans,
japanese or Englishmen; their farm
ing lands are not highly cultivated,
and one Japanese can do more work
than five Koreans, on an average.
"Manchuria, also offers especial in
ducements to the Japanese. 1t is
near his native land, and the environ
ment is similar. If that country is
opened to the Japanese, by some ar
rangement with China, It will be the
Mecca of the overflow population in
Japan. Its wheat lands, pasture
areas, manufacturing opportunities
and large streams reaching far in
land, offer exceptional inducements.
Notwithstanding the great prom
Use of America to the Japanese citi-
zen, yet If a new country nearer home
were opened to him, he would gladly
turn to that country. 1t is a fact.
that very few Japanese naturalize in
any foreign country, their traditions
and faith causing them to cling to the
mother country. Their invasion of
foreign countries is for the purpose
of making money-they will all be
gathered in Japan at the last"

brakeman. but will be managed by two men. In the ease and cheapness with which it can be run there is a promised solution of the problem of obtaining fast and frequent service on branch Hines of the great railroads. In subur- ban areas it seems to meet a long-felt
 want, doing business profltabIy where the ordinary locomotive would not pay expenses. The identification of trunk lines has been advocated. In parts of
 England and the United States some thing has been done in this way, with a view to securing better urban and inter- urban communication at reduced cost.
 But there are practical engineering diff faculties which delay the improvement.
 If the railroad automobile does all that ! it promises all the important conditions

AyOTHER CHANGE.

Two weeks ago the good and gen. erous people of New Haven contribut- ed cheerfully and liberally to the help of some Of the public orphans. To-day the second call on their generosity to- ward the orphans will be made, and of course it will be freely responded to, as it always is. The orphans must be warmed and fed this winter, and if anybody needs any incentive to help in the noble work of warming and feed ing them let him pause a minute and ask himself how he would like to be a public orphan, with little to look for ward to except being adopted, and per haps not that. It is not very cheery start in life, and it's sadness should be mitigated as much as possible by pros porous and kind people who are able to take care of themselves and help others who sadly need help.
 Take full advantage of this second chance to lend money to the Lord.

REFORMED EGGS.

It has been considered that there isn't a much worse thing than bad egg, but it now appears that even a bad egg can be reformed. A short time ago the cash value of rotten eggs was ten cents case, and the only buyers were leather manufacturers, who make use of them in certain of their pro- cesses. It was discovered, however, that the offensive odor of such eggs can be completely neutralized by the addi- tion of formaldehyde, and in conse- quence the demand for rotten eggs has increased to such an extent that the price per case has advanced more than dollar. A number of persons appear to have been doing large business in egg white, egg yolk and mixed eggs, the purchasers being bakers who have been led to believe that the material was derived solely from eggs cracked in transit Cracked eggs and eggs not far advanced in decay can be- separat- ed into egg white and egg yolk, but those which are quite stale or rotten cannot be so separated, and, therefore, their contents are mixed thoroughly to- gether and treated with formaldehyde.
 The Massachusetts Board of Health says that one large baking establish ment has for long time bought as much as a thousand pounds of mixed eggs daily in the belief that they were perfectly fresh and wholesome. Three prosecutions for their sale were made in Roxbury, and the results, together with the fact that the bakers have been put on their guard. have about put an end to the business there. Of course the business hasn't got any hold in good old honest Connecticut.

WOzder Cake.

To Editor of the Journal and Courier:
 The cheery discussion in your paper relative to wonders as the New Eng land name of doughnuts, was, read aloud by me in the circle where I am visiting, and I inquired of mine host, a native of East Haven, aetatis 76, whether he had ever heard this un- familiar appenation applied to dough- nuts. In replying, he quoted his mother:
 Now, will make you wonder cake,' she would say to her children. She would then roll out a section of dough, reduce it to a circular form as large as her frying-kettle, and cut three or four straight slits through the interior portion of inc dough, leaving a continuous outer ring; then she deftly gave twist to each of the bars spanning the circle, forming 1t into a spiral. Three or four of these crullers would be placed one above another on an ordinary table-plate of the same size as the fantastic cakes. It will be noticed that cruller is a different thing from a doughhut. I may add that the same form of cruller was known to the neighboring family un- der the same name.

PECULIAR CUSTOMS OF BAToNGA

Hhe Batonga tribe inhabit the re- gions adjoining the zambesi River on both banks, from the confluence of the yGWaai River to that of the Sengwe. Of their early history and origin no authentic information can be obtained. When the Materbele entered what is now Rhodesia the Batonga accepted the rule of this warlike Nation without resistance.
 Among the peculiar customs attach ing to the tribe is that by which the succession of an estate or a chieftain- ship is not to the eldest son of the deceased man, but to the eldest daugh- ter. All adults are buried in front of the door of the hut in which they oc- cupied during their lifetime, and chill dren under the caves.
 A characteristic of the tribe is the practice of knocking out the four front teeth of the upper jaw in both sexes on the arrival at the age puberty. The nearest approach to religious belief is d well established faith in the existence of spirits of the dead and in their capacity to work evil on their surviv- ing relations. In former imes iron ore was treated and manufactured into hoes, assagais and axes, while raw cot ton was woven into cloth; both both these industries have disappeared since the advent of European metal work and fabrics.-South Africa.

THE RArLR0An AUTOMOBILE.

There are several ways of getting around and getting along, and there are going to be more. The speed at tained by heavy automobiles on ordi- nary macadam roads of variable grades suggests that an automobile adapted to steel rails might give excellent results, especially for passenger traffic on ur- ban and interurban lines. Motor No. g." just constructed and tested by the Union Pacific Railroad company at it's shops in Omaha, is motor car of this type which seems to realize the hopes of inventors. 'No. 2" is @ passenger car impelled by a gasoline motor which produces 1GO-horsepower and attains a speed of fifty-seven miles dn hour. Con- stunning but three quarts of gasoline an hour, it is operated decidedly more cheaply than the ordinary coal-burning locomotive. In appearance it is a large street car, but it's front end is modified with a view to diminishing the resist ance of the air at high speeds.
 The new motor car will not require high-priced engineer to operate it, J together with fireman, conductor and

RUSSIA AND GERMANY.

The correspondent of the London Times in Paris writes to say that, in the opinion of the best Judges, there is no truth in the reports that Russia and Germany have been getting more closely together since the war. He was in Vienna, he says, when the Franco-Russian alliance was perfect ed. It was thought there that close intimacy between the autocratic mon archy and the democratic Republic would either cause reaction in the latter or provoke in Russia itself a movement in favor of political eman- cipation and liberty. It is certain, he says, that a large number of French men did at first expect the Russian al- liance to favor a monerchical restora- tion. On the other hand, the enemies of France have consistently represent ed to the Czar that the present dis~ Hurbed state of Russia is not only the consequence of her alliance with France, but is even organized in Paris by Russian refugees and their friends. The Czar, it is said, has always been willing to listen to such suggestions. If his political relations with the Ger man emperor have somewhat improved and not long ago they were anything but friendly-that improvement, says the correspondent, is due chiefly to dy= nastic considerations. The only re- maining prop in Europe for the semi despotic Prussian monarchy is the Russian autocracy. If the latter were to disappear personal government in Germany would receive it's death-blow. It is the common danger that has brought these two arbitrary rulers closer together.
 This looks reasonable. Many things look reasonable that are reasonable.
