YES We LOVE EACH OTHER
No Hostility Between America and
Japan, Say Statesmen.

Toxic, April 17.-Count Komura, the
foreign minister, gave dinner today
for Ambassador OBrien and, the staff
of the American embassy in celebration
of recent conclusion of the new Japa-
nese-American commercial treaty. For
ty persons were present among the
number being Premier Katsura and his
associates in the cabinet and a few
prominent Americans residing here.
In offering a toast to President Taft
Count Komura said that sincere friend
ship had "built a foundation which can
not be shaken by a campaign of false
hood and misrepresentation which is
being prosecuted with an ingenuity
worthy of a better cause. This treaty
gives added proof of the solidity of
the relations between Japan and the
United States and owes it's existence
to the active interest and wise states
manship of President Taft
Responding Mr.. O'Brien, toasted the
emperor, agreed that kindly and SYM
pathetic relations as described by the
foreign minister existed and added:
"It may be necessary to continue to
deny falsehoods and discourage un-
warranted and unworthy suspicious
but no sincere friend of mankind and
should shrink from the task of silenc-
and convincing the last doubter that
the nations are designed to continue
in accord and harmony. While Presi-
dent Taft richly deserves the encomium
pronunced by the foreign minister we
must not forget that the emperor al
ways accorded his assistance interest

President Taft" he said, will be
the candidate of the Republican party

Mr. Fordney said he had lost all
the money he had put into the flour
milling business at the time of the
Wilson tariff bill and that he had
been a dyed in the wool protection

seem to enjoy the display of his female

Cooper in his amended petition had
complained because his wife treated
his friends coolly,' but he had much
trouble recalling names of offending
parties on the witness stand. His
tendency was to keep we'll in the lines
of the few witnesses subpoened by the
defense and when bits of direct tes-
timony were presented, Cooper wanted
the matter left to the former record.
Now, you claim your wife was
jealous. Who was she jealous Off"
We'll, there was Miss Valdie."
The one you bought the false teeth
for?"
Yes, I let her have the money"
Cooper Watches Clock.
As the noon hour approached, Coop
er watched the court clock with much
anxiety. 1t was apparent that he was
not enjoying the grilling cross ex-
animation, which is one of the most
severe conducted in a Shawnee county
court in several years. Before Coop
| er leaves the stand he will probably
be compelled to confirm every little
| statement in his amended answer and
| to tell of his friendship with other
| women, to whom he accuses his wife
with being cruel and discourteous.
| The Cooper infant was not brought
| to the court room today. Neither did
the plaintiffs mother and sister appear
at the court house. The female at

lighter than in the earlier sessions

THE WALKING CURE.
(Eyening Wisconsin ,

(Evenlng Wisconsin,
 Everbody knows that walking is the best exercise there is. It beats all kinds of indoor gymnastics by reason of the fact that it takes those who practice it into the open air. It develops the chest as well as the limbs. It is easy, and one who de- pendS upon it in a forlorn hope endeavor to regain health can ar range his scedule so as to begin at any time and end when he feels fa- tigue.
 Dwight H. Woolf and his wife finished one day last week, when they arrived at their home in Kansas City, Kan, a walk of 18,000 miles, under taken for the purpose of restoring the health of MT. Woolf
 They started at San Antonio, Tex, more than Is months ago. At that time Wcolfs health was poor and the doctor. told him he would have to get out in the open or die. Let's walk,' suggested his wife, flor I'm going along With them went the family pets. a faithful pony, which has drawn a cart carving their baggage. on the long marches, and a dag.
 The Woolfs have eaten and slept in the open. After leaving San An tonic they spent only 21 nights out of All with a roof over their heads.
 Now that the long walk is over, Woof is alive, in better health than when he started, and his wife is in excellent physical condition, with the record of the champion woman long distance walker of the world.

HIGH TROLLEY
 STEPS TO GO
Utilities Commission Listens to
 Appeal From Women and Orders Folding Step
TO BE GIVEN TRIAL HERE
Will Experiment on New Order of Things on Open Cars Next
 Summer.

' Hartford, Dec. 13-The public util- ities commission at it's session here yesterday took up the matter of the receY> protest against high steps on trolley cars, and as result of their deliberations will order certain fold- ing ste tried on cars in New Haven, Hartford and Bridgeport. It is un- derstood, however, that the trials will not be made until the coming ssum- mer. Open cars will be selected, as the complaints seemed to be mostly against this style of a car.
 There has been more or less com- plaint against high steps. which are especially inconvenient to women, but the Connecticut company has taken no measures to remedy the difficulty. Women in various parts of the stale. notably in New Haven, Hartford and Bridgeport. took up the agitation in a vigorous manner last summer, and appeared before the utilities commis- sion. It was the first matter brought to the attention of the commission which had but recently organized. It is chiefly due to the efforts of the woman that the contemplated change will be made.
