JAPAN REBUILDS
 ANCIENT SHRINE
N0pponeSe Virgins Take Part in
 Solemn Ceremonies

Correspondence of the AssO. Press.) historic services of ancient Japan in which virgins took an impressive part have just been held in connection with the reconstruction of the Grand Shrine at Ise dedicated to Amaterasu Omikami, the grand ancestress of the Japanese empire, who, according to tradition dWelt in the heavenly re- gions. The sacred temples are re- constructed every twenty-five years and the time has now arrived for their replacement.
 The recent ceremony was that of laying the foundation Of the tempor- ary shrine which will shelter the sane tuary of the outer temple during the work of reconstruction of the main building. There were two services one in the morning and another at midnight, and they were conducted in the presence of Prince Taka Kuni, the grand prelatc of the Shrine, and many officials and Shinto priests.
 When the ShintO rites for purifying the land were concluded Prince Taka Kuni, acting as the personal messen- ger of the emperor, WOrshipped at the main Shrine and food offerings for the spirit of the ancestral deity were placed on the altar. The food was subsequently removed and buried on the lot at the four points of the compass. Then a group of virgins dressed in pure white robes with deep purple "bakama,' performed the rites of cutting the shrubs and moving the grass with sacred sicllcs. The cere- mony at midnight was similar to the morning ceremony, with the differ ence that the rites of moving down the shrubs and grass were replaced by the felling of timber-to be used for the sacred pillars of the tenn porarv shrine. There, also, virgin o1- fciated. The night spectacle was sublime. The surrounding forests

Inspite of danger spots, the outlook is encOura ging In ordinary times such conditions as now exist would be accompanied by wide spread and active speculation, if not boom surpassing all records.

ence for the shrine at Ise was tra- gically manifested in 1889 on the veryI day that Emperor Mutsuhito promul- gated the constitution. Viscount Ar inori Mori, former minister to the United States, was stabbed to death by a student because of the charge that while visiting the shrine of the Sun Goddess he had shown lack of re- spect by lifting one of the curtains with his walking stick. The deed was held to be "sacrilegious and un- pardonabIe because 1t menaced the sacred foundation and divinity of the Imperial Japanese house." To this day the assassin's grave is dec- orated by admtring zealots. The act attributed to Mori has never been proved.

 The grand Shrine of Ise occupied a prominent place in the court cere- monies of last year when Emperor YOshihitO was COnSecrated as ruler of the Empire of Nippon. They are vis ited by the Emperor and Empress only upon the occasion of the conse- cratiOn or accession, but imperial messengers are dispatched here every year, to pay homage to the deity The shrines are held in special adoration by the whole nation. Half a million pilgrims go there to worship every year, for Ise is the Mecca of Nippon. Every orthodox Japanese plans to make a pilgrimage there at least once in his life time.

RehabfIitation of sfIver.

In September last silver was a drug in the market at AT cents an ounce, while two months later it was quoted at 54 1-2. Bullion dealers claim
 that the white metal will continue to advance in price even after the war is
 over. One explanation Is the increas-
 ed demand from the armies in Europe
 for a currency that has universal val
 ue. Paper money passes current in
 the countries where it is issued, but
 when the armies are shifted to other
 countrie alien currency Toe it pur-
 chaing power. Metallic currency is
 the only kind of money that finds
 general acceptance. Gold could not
 be spared, because it is needed at home to serve as bank reserves, ana also to satisfy the demand from Amer fcaa and other countries in payment for war munitions and supplies. Hence recourse to silver is necessity An
 other reason for the advance is the de- naand from China, where the measure for the Standardization of coinage is about to be put in operation. This, 1t is aid, will create a demand for 15O,- oQO, ,00O ounce of silver The predic-l tfons that the price will continue after the war is over are undoubtedly based on the conviction that 2 return to the =doublei standard is contem p1aed by the leading nations of Europe. Because of their ea aornnous issues of paper cur rency and the drain of gold, many h- ,nanciaI experts have expressed the belief that some of the nations will re- pudiate their debts while otherse will be forced to suspend gold payments and go on a paper basis. But England and France. and possibly some other countries. will seek to avoid either Of these alternatives, by adopting the double standard. As for France, 1t would not be much Of a change, be- cause she has always reserved the right to pay out silver wlereverfit was not convenient to part with gold. Eng land. however, has the greatest need of the double standard, because or her much larger issues of paper money.

SURETY BOND IS FURNISHED WHEN
 ''DIP" IS HELD
Police Believe Band of Pro fessionals is Sticking By
 Their Pal.

The fact that there is a gang of professional dips working trains be- tween here and New York city was the opinion expressed by police off, cials this morning when one of the dips arrested at the local depot last week was released under bonds of $2,500, furnished yesterday after noon by the National Surety Co.,, of New York. Court officials do not know who is responsible for the bonds being placed by the Surety Co.
 This bond was furnished for the release of Joseph Skurnick. alias Da- vid Cohen of 4 B. 10th street, New York city. He is a former clothier at that address. The accused, it is al- legged, attempted to steal pocketbook from the clothing of Elzear Bernard, a 1ather, of 1902 Barnum avenue He was detected in the alleged attempt while alighting from passenger train at the local depot last Saturday after noon. Railroad Detective John U. Driscoll arrested him.
 Attorneys Harry Greenstein and Charles s. Shapiro, counsel for Skur- nick, said their client denied the al legation. They said he had never been arrested before.
 At this point of the hearing before Judge Wilder in city court today Pros ecuting Attorney A. l.. Delaney pre- sented a police record of Skurnfck.. The record as arranged by Inspector Frank F'aurot of the New York Ber- ti1lon bureau, reads as follows:
 Arrested seven times for disorder 1y conduct (picking pockets three times convicted; sentenced to the school for recruits once; charged with bribery once (not convicted and trial now. pending in fNew York city on charge of grand larceny
 -4-.z sk-r< today the bondsmen for Skurnick sur rendered the prisoner and the bond was returned to the bondsmen through the attorneys for the accused Skur- nick waived examination and was bound over to the superior court Af- ter disposition of the case had been made the bond was again placed in the hands of. Clerk Theodore Steiber Of the city court and Skurntck was released.
 Mades Burns of New York city, an alleged "dip,' who was arrested in theatre by Detective James Bray. Sat- urday evening, was also arraigned in city court today. Detective Bray all leges he saw Burns in the act of dipping" patron of the theatre, while the audience was leaving the playhouse The name of the near victim has not been learned and he didn't appear in city court this morn ing to testify.
 On the strength of the evidence presented by the police office, Judge Frank L. Wilder found probable cause and Burns was bound over to the superior court under bonds of $1,5O0.. Attorney Greenstein is counsel for the accused. The latter has been unable to furnish bond but has received a letter from friends in New York city who have told him not to worry and that they will see that he is reIeas- ed.
 Joseph Morris of New York city. aged 21, another. alleged "dip," ar rested by Railroad Detective George Morehouse aboard a local bound train from New York city a week ago. was remanded to the county jail in default of a. bond of $1,5oo and his case was continued until tomorrow morning.
