A Matter For investigation.

A rather amusing story is being told
by Japanese gentleman in counec-
ton with the late emperor of Japan.
As we know, the late emperor was
regarded with the greatest rencration
by his subjects. and il appears that
this attitude Of awful reverence was
maintained also 10y his ministers in
spite of the fact that affairs of state
make il necessary Cor them to see him
and converse with him very frequently.
One of these ministers. the Marquis
Matsugata, used TO experience agonies
of nervousness every time he had an
audience of his sovereign. and he was
never able to say anything distinct in
reply 10 him except the set phrase, II
shall have careful Investigation made,
your majesty
This generally brought him safely
through short audience, but one day
unfortunately the emperor condescend.
cd to discuss the marquis more pri
vate affairs.
How many children have you?" the
emperor asked.
Back came the inevitable phrase. II
shall have careful investigation made
your majesty
The story loses nothing from the fact
that the marquis mad very large fam.
lily.
