MISSIONARIES LAUD THE JAPS
Americans in Flowery Kingdom Sign
Memorial.


Toxic, Oct. 8.-A number of addi-

expected to be made shortly, and to
include Gonsuk Hayashi minister to
China, M. Uchida, minister of Toxic,
Osaki and Kioto.
The crown prince of Japan will
leave for Korea October 10 unless the
epidemic of cholera in that country
increases. At present the disease is
spreading seriously. A case is reported
inside the compound of the residence
general.
American missionaries in Japan to
the number of one hundred have
signed a memorial in which, while dis
claiming any desire to mix in politics,
they assert that their sole desire is
to remove misunderstanding and to
testify to the sense of international
justice, and to faith and friendship of
the United States and their belief that
the representatives of the belligerent
attitude of the Japanese do not rep
resent the true feeling of the nation.
The signers of the memorial say they
desire to record their appreciation of
the universal courtesy and helpfulness
of the people and the government Of
Japan. The memorial was unani-
mously signed by missionaries of all
sects

WoMEN's CLUBS DENOUNCED
Ruin the Center Sex for Home
Duties, German Says.

Berlin, Oct 9.-Women's clubs in
America are the special object of at
tack in an article by Herr Won Brandt.
former German minister to China in a
current magazine. His attack on
American women is the more remark
able in that he married an American
woman, Miss Hart, a resident consul
generals daughter at Seoul. Herr
Won Brandt says that Women's clubs
ruin women for home duties.
There is no such thing as a single
type of the American woman, accord
ing to the German diplomat. "The
Gibson girl" and Harrison Fisher
girl" he asserts, are artistic and lit
erary myths. Self-consciousness and
independence are the ruling traits OF
American women, but they have been
seriously menaced of late by the silly
agitation" of women's rights.

BALLOON
PROBLEM
GERMANS ADMIT THEY
HAVE FAILED.
COUNT ZEPPELIN ABLE TO SPEED
81 MILES AN HOUR THROUGH
THE AIR.

Berlin, Oct. 8.-Tke science of
aerial navigation-at least in Germany
has reached a point where many of
the most prominent investigators are
asking themselves in which direction
they shall pursue their experiments.
The problem of steering is satisfacto-
rily solved, but there remains the i'm
portant question of the conquest of
the contrary currents of the air, and
this raises the issue between the ad-
vocates of lighter than the air" and
heavier than the air"
Balloons inflated with gas are gen.
orally regarded here as having nearly,
If not quite, attained the final stage of
their possibilities, which, as is con.
tended, although marvellous in com.
parison with the position of only five
years ago, still leaves much to be
achieved before the air can be said to
be mastered
All three systems-the rigid, the
semi-rigid and the flexible, represent.
ing, respectively, the Siderable bal
loon of Count Zeppelin, the German
aeronaut; the military balloon and
that of Major Won Parseval-have
been, and still are being, tested. All
have given evidence of the fact that
in light winds and otherwise favorable
weather they may be steered and man
euvered with great facility. Not one
Of them, however, has on any occa-
sion ventured into the air when a
strong wind was blowing, for the
good reason that their steersman are
aware that their weak motive power
would not permit progression.
The greatest speed attained by any
of them-and this applies also to
French balloons-has not exceeded in
round figures 2S miles an hour, and
at that rate in such a wind they
would be driven backward. Even the
Zeppelin, which is credited with a
speed of SO or 81 miles an hour,
would do little more than hold its
own.
AS to form, the cigar shape main
tainS its favor, but the manner of con-
struction, on which, it is argued, de-
Ponds the capacity of the balloon to
remain in the air, is varied. In Yep
pelin's balloon the envelope is of metal
covered with silk and rubber, the ends
and the upper portion being of or
binary balloon material, while Parse
val's balloon is entirely composed of
flexible material similar to that used
in spherical balloons.
