The Filial Chinanan.


Many examples Of Chinese filial piety
strike the occidental reader as ridicu-
lous. There is the famous story Of
Lao Laitsu, which MI. +. F. Johnston
repeats in his "Lion and Dragon In
Northern China" Laos parents lived
to such extreme old age that he was
himself toothless old man while
they were both still alive. "Conceiv-
ing it his duty to divert their atten-
ton from their weight of years and
approaching end, he dressed himself
up In the clothes Of child and played
about In his parents presence with
the object Of making them think they
were still young married couple con-
templating the innocent gambols Of
their infant son."
A similar case is that of Wang P'ou,
whose mother had an unconquerable
dread Of thunder and lightning. When
she died she was buried in mountain
forest, and thereafter, when a violent
thunderstorm occurred, Wang P'ou,
needless of the wind and rain, would
hurry to her grave and throw himself
to his knees. 81 am here to protect
you, dear mother" he would say.
do not be afraid"

to witness the extraordinary trial.
Hundreds were spurrrl by curiosity
to lend hand and when the stone
god went through the st reefs strapped
to Il cart like an offender the crowd
grew. 1t filled the great hall Of justice
when .lizu was placed before the plat
form upon which sat the mayor. O-okA
addressed the god in stern words.
"You are negligent fool. O Jizo"
no exclaimed In n voice loud enough
for all to- hear "You are supposed
to protect every one who believes IN
you and who renders tribute, yet this
trusting porter here made Il prayer /"
you, then fell asleep at your feet. and
he was robbed while he slept. You
stand accused of being an arromplirr
in this robbery. Have you anything to
say for yourself before l pass sell

Mayor O-oku waited for Il few mo-
mcnts as if expecting the stony lips of
.Jizo to open In reply, but when no
answer was made by the god he pass

"Sincc YOU do not defend yourself l
consider that you are guilty. said his
honor, land | shall imprlson YOU"
At this remarkable spectacle Of
mayor passing sentence upon Il ston"
god there was Il litter Of laughter.
O-oku Numbered in a voice Of brass.
"Who are all these people standing
about hcrc?' he inquired Of his court
officers. care they aromplirrS OF JiZo
or only plain thieves? They think this
court is a penny show, and they laugh
ut the courts orders. Shut all the
gates at Oncc.'
The scared attendants FASTENED to
shut tho gates Of the courtroom. Then
Mayor O-oka ndjudgrd every man in
the great crowd in contempt of court
and fined each Of them one tan "a III
mono length Of cotton cloth. The hun
drcds thus suddenly found in contempt
were happy that their punishment had
been so light at least, and under bonds
they hurried to their homes to bring
back the cloth fine. Before the day
was done 700 pieces Of cotton cloth
had been presented before the mayors
court, the name of each culprit being
set down upon the one tan Of cotton
cloth which he presented.
Before he would allow the 700 to go,
however, O-oka retired with the por-
ter who had been robbed to an inner
chamber, and he asked the porter to
look over the 100 pieces Of cotton
cloth and see if he could identify any
Of them as having been once in the
pack lie had carried. Since every man

ways marked tho sclvage Of each strip
with little red trademark stamp the
porter searched the edges Of the many

that borne ON the cloth of which he
had been robbed. He found that two
Of the pieces Of cloth brought to pay

AN IDOL IN COURT
Made to Serve the Ends Of Justice
In a Case In Japan.
THE RUSE OF A WISE MAYOR.
This Solomon like Official, to Whom an
Innocent Man Accused Of Theft Ap.
peaIed, Devised a Simple Scheme
That Disclosed tho Real CuIprits.

That Disclosed the Real CuIprts.
One day Il servant employed by the
proprietor Of Il big store near Japan
bridge, in Yed(lo, was sent with a heavy
pack Of valuable cotton goods on his
back to dyer insIIonjo district. When
the stores messenger reached Yoko
gawa street he was ready to seek rest.
| What more safe than the little grove
of trees set about the stone statue Of
the god ,Iizo, the patron saint of trav-
elers and defenselcss woman and chill
dren.
The somnolent porter awokc from a
nap to find that his employers cotton
had disappeared. In great distress he
went to the storekeepcr and confessed
that he had slept and that a robber
had made off with the goods during his
slumber. The master would not be-
lieve his story, saying that it would
have been impossible for robber to
make off with so large bundle IN
broad daylight Unless the porter
should pay for tho lost goods he would
have to go to prison, said the master.
In despair the porter took counsel Of
Mayor O-oka.
"You are certainly to blame for hav.
ing fallen asleep" reprOved the mayor,
"but Jizo is equally to blame, for he
Is a god bound to protect every one
who trusts in him. and in this instance
he has betrayed you. l will have him
arrested and brought before me for
trial"
O-oka gave immediate orders to his
court officers to go and arrest the JiZo
Of Yokogawa street and bring him be-
fore the mayors seat for trial. Three
of the officers departed on their mis-
sion. They first bound the arms OF
the stone god with coils of rope; then
they tried to lift him from his firm
pedestal into cart a great crowd
assembled before the Jlzo, attracted
by the unusual behavior Of the court
officers When they were told that
Jizo had to 20 before the mayor for
trial the citizens marvcled.
The task of unseating the god was
too much for the three court officers,
and they sought aid Of those standing
about. They promised that In return
for assistance they would admit all
volunteer workers into the courtroom
