fOoliShly Cabling about impending
war between the United States and
Japan because a gang of tOughs broke
up Jap restaurant in San Francisco
and a number of our battleshipS have
been ordered to the harbOrs on our
Pacific coast. We have had the most
positive assurances from the officials
in control that the talk of war is
absurd and there is no danger of any
thing of that kind because there is
no reason for it, no caSus belh, but
the stream of drivel still flows on in
increasing volume. Some Of the
powers across the sea would be glad
to see us involved, Spain, for instance,
but if We have no war until We mix
with Japan there is a long period o.
peace before US. The war talk il
merely to fill newspaper columns anC

a few OF the features of the great pa
rade.
Music is furnished by military bands,
chimes, steam pianos, barbarian tom
toms. and the understanding reeds Of
semi-savage musicians. The spice of
comedy is added by a company Of clowns,
who keep the spectators along the
street curbs in continuous shouts OF
laughter. The costumes and trappings
for the 300 people and 500 horses rep
resent a small fortune IN themselves.
