BUSINESS MEN
TO VISIT JAPAN
CONSUL GENERAL KOIKE INVITES
GUESTS TO WITNESS ARRIVAL
OF FLEET.

SAN FRANCISCO, June 16.--It Is
probable that several prominent bust
ness men of this city will visit Japan
at the time the American battleship
fleet reaches Japanese waters to wit
ness the welcome to the war ships and
incidentally to see the country AS
the schedule of the Navy Department
fixes the arrival of the fleet in Japan
csc waters some time in October, those
who contemplate making the trip are
in no hurry to formulate their plans.
The idea of the trip grew out of an
invitation extended by Chozo Koike,
Consul General of Japan, to several
guests that he was entertaining at
dinner at the Fairmont a few nights
ago. The Consul General expressed a
wish that those present might visit his
country and especially that they might
witness the Japanese welcome TO the
American battleship fleet Several re-
piled with a tentative acceptance of the
invitation.
Among the guests was r. p. Schwer-
in, vice-president and general manager
of the Pacific Mail Steamship Com
pany, and hew as asked by the Consul
General whether his company would
offer any inducements to a large party
to make the voyage to Japan and re-
turn. He replied that the company
would, and it is understood that a
number have decided to take advan-
tage of the occasion to visit Japan.
The voyage, including the sojourn in
Japan, will occupy about eight or nine
weeks, and the tourists will be in the
Mikado's country during the month of
October, which is by far the pleasant
est season of the year, as the severe
neat OF the earlier month is then past.

OFFICER
IS De GRADED
PITIABLE PLIGHT OF ENSIGN
ULLMo, GUILTY OF ATTEMPTING
TO SELL NAVAL SECRETS.

TOULON, June ia pitiable spec
tacle, the degradation of the traitor,
Charles B. Ullmo, formerly a naval Of
ficer, occurred at St. Roch Square here
today in the presence of an enormous
crowd. Ensign Ullmo was arrested at
Toulon last October charged With be-
ing a spy. An examination of his eff
fects showed him to be in possession
of many valuable documents. Last
February he was found guilty by a
court-martial of attempting to sell
naval secrets to foreign power and
sentenced to life Imprisonment in
fortress and to be degraded in rank.
Train excursions were run into Paris,
and thousands of people from the sur
rounding country came in to witness
the ceremony. They packed the side
walks and covered the adjacent roofs,
walls and ramparts. The pressure of
the crowds was so great that it threat
ened to sweep away the lines of SOL
diers and sailors drawn up around the
square. After the troops had been re-
llllOlCGu Will TWO duulllOudl IGBl-
ments, a battery of artillery and two
squadrons of cavalry, Ullmo, wearing
mis- uniform and sword, was led into
the rectangl6, where the commandant
read the order that Ullmo had betray-
ed his country and was not worthy to
wear its uniform. Two subalterns
then took off his sword and stripped
him of his chevrons and buttons. One
of the subalterns broke the sword
across his knee and threw the broken
blade at ILLINOIS feet.
In this plight Ullmo was compelled
to march at the head of a squad of SOL
diers around the rectangle amid the
boots and jeers of the crowd. He walk
ed with his bare head sunk upon his
breast and his eyes staring straight in
front of him. Tears were streaming
down his face.
Several thousand recruits who VT
messed Ullmos degradation were great
ly impressed by the ceremony. Ullmo
will be deported to Devils Island, off
the coast of French Guiana, where
MAJ. Dreyfus was confined from 1894
to 1899.

JAPAN AFTER
FOREIGN TRADE
MINISTER ISHII ANNOUNCES THE
ATTITUDE OF JAPAN AT PUBLIC
MEETING.

TOXIC, June 12.-Baron Ishii, in his
first speech in his new capacity as vice
foreign minister, addressing a joint
meeting of the chambers of commerce,
now in session in Toxic, gave an earn
est of his attitude toward foreign trad
ing with Japan when he warned the
chambers to avoid antagonizing for
eign trade. Minister Ishii pointed out
that new teaties would be in effect in
August, 1911, but that the proposals
which must be drawn up by June, 1909,
would almost exclusively be confined
to the customs tariff The peculiar
position of Japan, owing to the per-
sistent campaign of Misrepresentation
Of her motives, he asserted, negessitat-
ed the most careful work in framing
these proposals.
He said that fear was already eX-
pressed among foreign merchants that
revision would result in the creation
of prohibitive tariffs against foreign
manufactures.
Continuing, Minister Ishii said that
the world should be made to under
stand that Japan welcomed foreign
trade and would encourage it by every
fair means. He invited the co-opera-
ton of the chambers and hoped they
would offer suggestions regar1Ihg The
revision of the tariff.

art has to be an Original in order to have
value and command n gooG price. Unless
a piece of colonial furniture has some his
toric connection, 1t should bring a lower
price in it's battered and worn condition
than a modern perfect copy. The argument,
of course, is always advanced that fur
niture was better made in those days than
now. While that is true to a large extent,
why not make furniture as good now? The
average artists ambition to produce art
for arts sake" is not faring well in its
contact with the commercial spirit OF mod
ern times.
There is one class Of colonial art which
we are forced to copy, for both location
and lack Of number prevents us all from
owning the originals" Tina is the do
nestle colonial architecture. While We
have come to look upon the colonial style
of architecture as thel American renais-
sance, it. is in fact a native of Englan /,
where It was known as the Georgian STYLE.
1t was considered as Only a fad in ths
mother country, however, and soon dis
carded for the ancient styles which are
dear to the English and Scotch people. II
was at this time in English history that
the colonists were building their first
homes and buildings. and since they en-.
ployed English architects their homes re-
ceiveG the distinctive stamp of the Geor-
gian style, then in vogue in England. II
was in this school that our first American
architects were cultured and schooled, with
the result that the style came into national
use, and because of it's associations with
the early history of this country we have
come to know It as the colonial style CT

Omaha daily bee., 1908-11-15

The colonial style is the most appropriate
In which to build and furnish an American
home. There has been but one period In
the history Of our country when all things
were designed in harmony and it Is a
singular fact that little Is to be found to-
day that excells the styles of dress, arch
lectures, furniture decoration and bric-a-
brac of the colonial period of American his
tory. Take the simple candle stick. 1t is
considered Of good or poor design accord
ing to the resemblance it bears to cononial
examples. In dress they far eXcelled as to
taste and personality, especially the styles
used for the men. While some fads were
adopted which seem ridiculous today, the
powdered wig for example, there is no
doubt but what there was more individual
character and artistic taste displayed in
the male attire of the colonial period than
we can claim for the styles in vogue today.
The similarity of dress between men was
not as marked as it is now. Each man
was dressed in the manner and colors
suited to his station in life and his build.
Those styles nave long since been dis
carded for the plain and colorless clothes
of today, but there is still a strong ten
dency to follow the trend of things colonial
in furniture and domestic architecture.
This is especially noticeable in the building
and furnishing of colonial homes of the
better class.
Why Is it that the older a piece OF fur
nitlre is the more aluable II becomes after
1t has reached a certain age-a piece Of
colonial furniture of good design seems to
follow the path of the human life immortal:
II is at first, new. handsome, Just In,

high price on its merits. As its age in
creases, its cushions wear out and its
finish becomes marred, respect for 1t de
cIines until It is placed in the servants
room and finally "chucked' into the attic.
Here It stays for years in dark secluslon
until its resurrection day. when some one
discovers that 1t is an antique piece of
furniture; 1t is then refinished and sold
for twice its original value, An old spinet

years later for IS, again sold to a furniture
man for 50, who took out the mechanical

ished it and sold 1t at a fancy price. 1t
is certainly an exquisite piece OF colonial
work and entirely appropriate for its
present use, but wait for another spinet
to com along. why not manufacture new
writing desks patterned after this same
model. 1t is a wrong idea that a work of

but most of these old-time woodsmen
have passed away and on those who are
still jewellers in the mountains the game
laws have forced a situation that leaves
them with their ancient occupation gone.
and the hunt being no longer a source OF
maintenance it's traditions have departed
with it. The newer generation OF these
people is of other taste and association,
so while the wild turkey is yet in prox-
unity in that Blue mountain region to sup
ply the material for the festive turkey eat,
the traditions and associations that made
1t possible are no more and 1t is gone, like
the apple cut. the quilting bee, the pig

rural pastimes that are now but a MEM
