Etiquette Demands Il.

Etiquette demands that on such a
visit as that which Secretary Taft
Is making, he shall take in the rul-
ers of every country through which
he travels. 1t Is Taft's intention.
according to the best authorities, to
visit both King Edward and Presi-
dent Falleries, as well as the kaiser
and the czar of Russia. He viii first
visit Russia and spend some days
with the czar, leaving st. Petersburg
within few weeks for Berlin and
thence to England, where he win be
the guest of the, two royalties who
will meet him there. He may go
from Berlin to France to see Faller-
| les but 1t Is regarded as more prob
able that he will first visit England
and make short trip ia France lat

during the formers visit to Eng
land. 1t Is likely that Taft will also
seek an audience with King Edward,
for to pay visit to the kaiser while
on British soil. without paying an
equivalent respect to the king might
be regarded as disoourteous
So much has been said about
Taft's visit to the German Empire
that other governments have become
curious and Ambassadors Brice and
kusserand, 1t is asserted here, have
already made inquiries on the sub
tect and 1t might be regarded as a
slight IL Taft does not ask to see
King Edward and President Failer-
les as we'll as Emperor William.

privileged to borrow the books on the payment of a small fee.
 By an imperial ordinance in 1897 the rules and regulations were re- vised, the name changed from the Tokio library to the imperial library. and plans adopted for erecting e large and modernly equipped structure.
 The success that the library has obtained has been greatly due to the efforts of the librarian, Mir. l. Tanaka, who was sent by his government sew eral years ago to make q tour of America and Europe. studying li- braries and their methods. Mfr. Tana- ka is very pleasantly remembered fn the Harvard library and the Boston Public library. where he made many friends, with whom he has since kept in touch.
 During the war with Russia the patronage greatly decreased, but since then has been restored. The statis- tics for 1905 show that there were 144,532 readers. and 743.220 books cir culated.

JAPANESE LIBRARY
NEW INSTITUTION AT TOXIC HAs
 JUST BEEN OPENED UP. V
ls Part of the Imperial University and. Was Modelled After the
 Boston Public .t Library.

The Boston public library has been the inspiration and model for the new library of the Imperial university l (Teikoku Daigaku) at Tokio. The grouping of the buildings around an interior court, the large arched win- dows of the facade, the stacks in. which the books are stored, the use lef many varieties of marble in it's interior decoration, but more espe- cially the general reading room, with its close resemblance to Bates hall in the arrangement of double row of tables, lit by electric lights, the cases of reference books, which in time will extend entirely around the room they all make evident the fact that Japan considers Boston the best au- thority on libraries. and honors her by imitation.
 At the present time only one-fourth of the building is finished and occu-F pied. At the end of eight years ttl will be completed
 The library and the other buildings of the Imperial university are beau tifully situated in Uyeno Park, tho most popular resort in Tokio, world famous for its temples, it's tombs of the Shoguns. and especially for It's avenue of cherry trees. Here. the first week in April, all Tokio assem- bles to admire and feast upon the beautiful sight of masses of pale pink cherry blossoms, filling the air like clouds. to drink tea, exchange courte- sies and make general holiday.
 The library supported from the nal tional tax, was founded in 1872. The national department of education dol mated more than 10000 volumns of Japanese books, and the educatonall departments of the several provincesI gave about 15,000 additional volumes. A number of books in other languagesI were bought at this time, English pre- dominating. (
 Since then copy of every book, printed in the country has been adds ed to the collection, until at the pres ent time it numbers 1S0,196 Japanese and Chinese books, and 46,3S5 for-I eign, making a total of more than 225,000 volumes. an excellent result for the number of years.
 Until 1885 the library was wholly circulating one. Ip that year q reading room was provided for refer, ence work. The arrangement of the books was also revised, and all worn and mutilated volumes discarded. leaving on the shelves total of S2,069.
 In the first two years of the exist ence of the library it was open even ings and the books loaned free. From 1874 to 1897 the building was closed at six p. m., when it was again re- opened evenings with great success The general public, as well as the students of the university, are now
