DELIVERS ADDRESS TO
AMERICANS
BARON koGoRo TAkAHIRA, OF
JAPAN, SPEAKS AT iNDEPEN.
DENCE HALL.

Philadelphia, Pa, July 5.--Baron
Kogoro Takahira, Japanese ambassa-
dor to the United States, was the
orator of the day at the Fourth of
July exercises at historic Independ-
ence hall here today. Speaking of
the great powers of the world and
their responsibilities, the Japanese
ambassador said:
"As for Japan. she was not only in
troduced into the community of ma
tons through the agency of Ameri-
can diplomacy, but has been always
encouraged by it in various ways as
as her intentions were to apply the
people equality to nations as to indi-
viduals, even when we We're still in
a less modest position. The United
States recognized Japan's tariff au-
tonomy before any other power in
1878, and was only second to Great
1904 to abolish it's extra territoriality
jurisdiction in Japan, which might be
called our International emancipa-
ton. Thus strongly encouraged by
the friendly action and attitude of
the United States, Japan has been
continuously endeavoring to improve
itself in politics and social conditions,
so as to make itself worthy of its
position as a member of the commu-
! nifty of civilized nations.
I'VE are using every effort in our
power, however limited it may be, to
help our neighboring countries to i'm
prove themselves and to enjoy the
benefits of modern civilization. We
shall, therefore, be happy to see the
United States act toward them as it
acted toward u.s."

The Storm Nose at Sea.

The picturesque name of storm nose
(Gewitternase) is given in Germany to
the wave of high barometric pressure
which often precedes a storm or a
heavy squall. The barometer rises sud
denly and then falls more gradually.
1t is believed that this phenomenon is
responsible for sudden changes in the
level of the sea. Observations on the
seas surrounding Denmark have led to
the conclusion that the change of level
thus produced sometimes amounts to
no less than three feet.-Youth's Com
