FEARED A TRAP.
A Bit of Japanese Strategy That De-
ceived the Enemy.

| Many man has failed to guess an
easy riddle because the simple solution
looked like trap to him. Here is an
instance In which this trait OF human
nature was cleverly played upon by a
Japanese nobleman.
The old lord had been forced to fee
with only 300 men before an enemy
with 10000 and barely had time to
reach his castle ahead of his foes.
There were no re-enfOrccments near at
hand, and he knew thai II an attempt
was made to storm his defenses he
and his men would be dead before help
could come
The enemys forces advanced rapid
ly. and scouts rode up near the castle
to reconnoltcr. To their Arrangement,
they found the gates, doors and win
dows open and all the appearance Of
a holiday celebration. They rode hasti-
ly back to inform their master that the
foe was dancing and that bands were
playing music In the castle.
The powerful enemy was too wise
man to put his head into any such trap
as that The defenders OF the castle
must have some plan to slaughter his
forces by wholesale or they would
never invite him In that way. He
drew bacl; 10 safe distance and en-
camped to await DEVELOPMENTS.
Soon the re-enforcements for the cas-
tie came up behind, attacked him sud
denly and defeated him, while the gar-
rlson. which had rlsked all on It's
stratagem, charged him on the other
! side.

Of recruits that come from inland

shore leave. In the meantime their
vessel may sail. These men are not at
first termed deserters, but are set

period of ten days nothing Is heard
from them by the ships officers they
are then considered deserters.
At the end of the ten day limit their

effects are sold before the mast. The
amount realized is placed to their ac-
