,Aps LANDING SOLDIERS HERE.
They Are Sent Into Mexico Under
Guise Of Laborers.

New York.-The New York World
says: Nine thousand veteran Japanese
soldiers are now in northwestern Mex
leo. They are stationed at points in
the states of Sonora, Sinaloa and Chi
huahua. Each group is ofiicered by
skilled commanders who saw service
in the Russian japanese war.
Thirty thousand Japanese, the ma
jority of whom are veterans of the
Russian campaign, are in the south
western section of the United States
and lower California.
Three Japanese generals who held
high rank in the Russo-Japanese war
have been in Mexico for three months.
They dress like Mexican ranchers and
are ostensibly buying land for the
Transoceanic Migration Company,
whose vice president, L. Hiteni, is a
member of the japanese Parliament
This company is subsidized by the
Japanese government TO bring the
Japanese soldiers to Mexico. They
have been coming into Mexico at the
rate of 500 a month, landing at Santa
Cruz, Manzanillo and other Pacific
ports.
In case of war the plan is for the
Japanese fleet to sail up the Gulf of
California and capture the port of
Guaymas and use the state of Sonora
as the base of operations in a cam
paign against the United States. This
plan will practically duplicate the op-
erations against Russia. when Japan
seized Korea at the outbreak Of the
Russo-Japanese war. Japan in her
war against the United States will de-
spoil Mexico, which has no navy, just
as she did that of Korea in the war
with Russia.
One japanese emigration company
tlone has brought 1000 emigrants to
Mexico within six months. Sixty per
cent of these have jumped their con
tracts in central and southern and
northwestern Mexico and gone
straight to Sonora, Sinaloa and Chi
huahua. Others are leaving by hun
dreds, all bound for northwestern
Mexico. The japanese here promptly
advise all emigrants on arrival that
contracts made in Japan are not bind
ing, and warn them not to sign con
tracts in Mexico embodying identical
terms as those made in Japan.

MAN AND HIS WAYS.

A new cradle has been invented

intellect that is to sway the TWEEN

babe! When COLES gripes assail, 1t

der-strange to say, men do not jeer
at this dictum of the new mother
hood-much less will it experience the
bliss of being lulled to rest in a
wooden-slatted cradle or fluffy bassi-
net, swayed by the foot of won
drous being who swings and croons,
swings and croons, till baby woes are
merged in blessed sleep. Its maker
claims that sideways rocking is, in
deed. injurious to babykins. but to his
eyes, not his brain. Therefore has he
constructed cradle that swings
lengthwise. and is shaped like boat!
