Seems to Do Them Good.
Herald Specially

Reno, Nevada, June 25.-Both par
Elephants in the coming Jeffries-John
son fight are in good spirits today
and each is confident he will win in
the match. The change from Cailfor

be in excellent shape. The mountain
air has done them good.
Johnson announced today that he
had not taken Little back as manager,
but had agreed to pay him $4,000
after the fight in settlement of Lit
ties claims.

nature. The president is known to be
decidedly against some of its provi-
sions.

hearty handshake, had voted him a
very pleasant sort OF fellow. At this
particular moment, however, he did
not justify the verdict in point OF ap-
pearaDce. II was Bat DAILY who had
brought the girl that Jack Burren was
dancing with. and Cyrus could not re-
member having seen her dance with
anyone else. besides DAILY himself.
They were light eyes looking out
from under level eyebrows, and Cyrus
frankly shuddered at the sight of
them. The mans face was clean
shaven, showing high cheek-bones and
firm handsome mouth. He stood in
an indolent attitude, with his hands In

Japanese advancement"

The cable dispatches tell us that
sensation was created in Toxic
Wednesday, by the publication of the
alleged details of a plot among his own
subjects to assassinate.. the emperor.
This is said to bethe Ifrststime in his
tory that the fife 81 TIE japanese SOW
ereign has been plotted against by
his own people and the fact become
known. 1t is also said that d rigorous
censorship has provided against the
escape of SO much as d hint of the
present conspiracy until Wednesday
evening. According to the published
story, the assassins planned to accom-
piish their ends While the emperor was
visiting military school just outside
the capital. The plot was discovered
just in time to save the emperor, and
the plotters were seized at once.
Whether or not this may be an indi-
cation of advancement of the little
brown men, it is becoming more and
more evident every day that the Jap
anese are shaking off old notions and
are importing Occidental science and
Occidental forms of government
They at present have an injudicious
mixture of both Asia and America,
and if the truth were known, no doubt
there would be found to be consider
able scepticism touching the excessive
claims made for the emperor as an
infallible voice of God Japan is edu-
eating her people, not only in the es-
sentials of education, conventionally
conceived, but in the ethics of loyalty
to throne, and nothing is left undone
to create in the rising generation a
subordination of self to common in
terests. Free speech and free thought
on religious issues. were some time
since decreed in Japan, but it is far
from a fact now in the realm of gov
eminent, and as the Far East Yankee
advances in the ways of the western
" world. we may expect to see enacted
there some of the tragedies after the
manner of our own "civilization.''

When you throw man let him light,

The automobile has it's uses, no
doubt, but there is no disputing that a
lot of loafing is done in automobiles.
Some women walk the streets with a
naughty air which seems to say: AT

When a man has been away several
years and returns and shakes hands
with you, how he holds on to your
hand!
When women are crazy to see a
brides wardrobe men never say,
What depraved taste." as women
say when men are anxious to see a
prize fight.
When you shake hands with a man
do you like to hold on a long time, or
do YOU prefer to shake and get away?
We believe people generally prefer
shore shakes-the shorter the better.
