The custom Of harakiri Is a thing

disposal Of their MASTERS. lords and
rulers.
The samHral youths were taught 70
commit harakiri rather than submit 10
the disgrace of decapitasion.
Thus harakiri became AZ invet-
crate hereditary propensity Of the
samural class, from which It vas not
an easy affair to free them after the

Rising Sun.
In this enlightened age Of Meijl.
however, this practice has been go
ing out Of fashion Yet It Is amaz-
Ing to learn that It has again come
into use in the war With Russia.
Last year Prof Ukida Of Wassda

q Yale, delivered an address In an
educational gathering held In Toxic,
10 which he referred to the practice
Of harakiri He said II part
"A soldier may die in The battlefield

His reasons we're right. n his utter
ances we're not tudiciousIy made. Yet
he has been denounced as a traitor By
Mai Gen. sato, who based his argn
meuts up0n the sentiment that the

70 the Russians have the Japanese
been enabled to win the victory: and
that Prof Ukldas address would have
q tendency to detract from the pa
triotic feryor Of the japanese soldiers
All the press Of Japan made com

that what Prof. Ukda termed dut,
was exactly the same 40 what MAJ
Gen. sato termed honor in the essen
