NOBODY KNOWS.

There is a popularity about the re-
openinr of the slot machines in the
saloons and cigar. stores in this City,
which is rather striking. None Of the the
owners Of the machines seem to know
where the permission to bring them

Chief Of Police has been said to have
actual knowledge of the existence Of

has this City come to, when private

Prince Hirobumi Ito was perhaps the
greatest statesman Of new Japan. The
achievement with which his name has
been chiefly associated in the minds Of
occidentals was the framing Of the i'm
periaI constitution, by virtue of which
JaDan took her place for the first time
in the ranks of modern civilized states
As the emperOr's trusted adviser and
the medium through which the state was
placed on a constitutional basis, ne must

present standing among the nations.
Prince Ito was g. years of age.
1t was in 1863 that he made MS cele-
brated pilgrimage to England, az time
wher it was against the law of his cOun-
try TO go abroad and the penalty for
infringement was death. Nevertheless,
inspired by a patriotic feeling and de-
sire to learn the secret of Occidental su-
Drenacv. he undertook the trip which
nroved so beneficial to his country later
