What Harakiri Is.

Harakiri. or self disembowelment. is
the national form of honorable suicide
1t was originally the method of self
destruction permitted to royal offenders
In feudal times.
Harakiri is said to have been the
growth of medieval militarism. Mobiles
practiced it in the early days to pre-
vent themselves from falling into the
hands of the enemy. AS early as the
fourteenth century the custom of com
mitting harakiri had become a much
valued privilege. Harakiri was of two
kinds-obligatory and voluntary. In
the first kind which was the more an

scene of operations in time to take part
this case was intrusted with a vast
turning movement, which, If it did not
require the same relentless determina-
ton as the storming of the Port Arthur
heights, demanded military skill of the
highest order. Nogi's corps was on the
left Of Oyama's position, and he re-
ceived orders to march due north be-
tween the Sha river and the Hun to
turn Kuropatkin's right. He showed
in this march all the dash and energy
which had been proved at Port Ar
thur and carried the feeble Russian re-
sistance completely before him. Nogi
showed signs of crumpling up the en-
tire Russian right and establishing
himself on Kuropatkin's line of re-

success of this movement has been de-
clared by competent military critics to
have been directly responsible for the
downfall of the Russian army.
He forced Kuropatkin's men back on
themselves till they were crowded into
n small position, raked from three sides
by artillery fire, and he pressed on till
ten days from the time that he had
begun his great turning movement he
had established himself squarely across

he checked, four days before the end
of the great conflict, when Kuropatkin
himself sent forward first forty bat
talions and then led himself sixty-five
in an effort to break through the en-
emy's lines.
The vaior of the Russians caused
real anxiety in the Japanese headquar-
ters, but the stern determination of
Nogi was checked, not defeated. He

elaborate preparations for his suicide
and disemboweled himself ON a raised
dais while his friends sat around in q
semicircle and watched his death.
The operation consists in plunging a
dagger into the stomach on the left
side and drawing it to the right and
upward. The victims dagger in an
cient times was taken to the mikado
as evidence that the heroic act had
been committed.
Voluntary harakiri, which has long
survived in Japan. is committed by
persons as proof of loyalty to dead
superior, and sometimes as a public
protest against what the suicide be-
lieved to be false national policy.
In 1891 Lieutenant Takeyoshi killed
himself by harakiri near the grave of
his ancestors because he felt that his
national government was not sufficient
ly vigorous in taking precautions
against possible Russian encroach
ments in the northern part of Japan.
1t has been no uncommon thing for
japanese women to kill themselves for
similar reasons, but instead of cutting
their stomachs they slash their throats.
1t is asserted that in Japan each
year at least 1900 harakiris are COM
mitted, nearly one-half being volun-
tary. Friends of the victims take
much grim pleasure in relating stories
of the brave manner in which the deed
is done.

BALL PLAYERS DON'T
LIKE TO- PAY DUES.
Assessment of $13 Apiece Given as
Reason Why New Union Won't
Succeed.

The recently Incorporated Baseball
PLAYERS fraternity is now the big talk
of the fans outside Of the coming
worlds series. Some say that the for
nation of this body will eventually
lead to war, while others declare
that it will die natural death.
The obstacle in the way of the sue
cess of the organization Is the assess
ment Of the players. 1t is said that the
2S6 players already enrolled have been
asked to pay dues of SIS apiece annu'
ally, which would make total OF
$5,14S.
If there is anything the modern
player hates to do it is to part will
money The player of today is a great
contrast to the old timer who liked
nothing better than to throw his money
away. Nowadays they use all theiI
coin buying farms, orchards, garages
etc, and they don't part with a cent
that won't bring them back it's equiya-
lent at least.
1t is believed that this assessment
thing will cause the death Of the neW
union. If this doesn't cause its demise
it is said that a war with the mag
mates will mean the knockout punch
1t is understood that the first thing the
players will ask for is representation
on the national commission, which re
quest will most likely be refused, witt
the result that war will be started
with the usual result-the triumph G.
capital over labor.

the fire swept heights no fewer than

apparent callousness of Nogi's stfate-
gy which staggered the world, and yet
in it could be discerned a deliberate
design.
Under the guns of Port Arthur lay
the Russian fleet, and half around the
world was coming the fleet of Ro-
jestvensky to unite with them. In
the north of Korea the Russians were
growing daily stronger in spite of
many defeats, and day by day the ex-
chequer of Japan was feeling the eff
fects of the war. 1t was absolutely
necessary to capture Port Arthur at
all costs as quickly as possible, and
Nogi coolly, but not cruelty, determin-
ed to spend his men lavishly in COM
pleting the task which it was their
duty to perform.

RAISE YOUR OWN TIMBER
Farmers Should Plant Trees, and Add
Beauty to the Public Highways.

The Idaho farmers living distant
from timber seem to have entirely
ignored the future necessities for it.
In the older states this question has
been met by preserving a wood lot
when farms were cleared of timber,
of by planting trees if in the parties,
but in the Snake River Valley this
matter has been neglected in the face
of rapid strides in settlement and
swift consumption of timber.
Farmers should plant trees along
the roads and bitches where it would
not interfere with keeping the bitches
open, and in any convenient or waste
land where it could be watered. The
crop requires number of years to
come into use, but the returns are
sure, and the trees. growing along
the roads or in groves add much to
the beauty of the country as we'll as
making wind brake.
Care should be exercised in the
selection of varieties suited to this
climate; something that will make
quick growth is desirable on ac-
count of the pressing demand for
wood that is already upon us. Else
where in this issue we print an ar
ticle entitled "The European Larch
a valuable tree for Idaho" and we
commend it to the careful consider
alton of our readers.
