TOXIC, July 2S. - Viscount Tchiro Motono, the foreign minister. in a speech before the Japan Emigration Association, said the government is always paying keen and close atten- ton to the emigration of Japanese people to foreign countries.
 Viewed from the progress of DO. lities. national economy, scientific ad vancement and in other directions. Japan, in her absolute position in the world, cannot be called a first class power yet" he added, but there is not the least doubt as to the future progress and development of the Jap anese nation. The character of the emigrants has an important bearing upon the nation and state they be- long to. Hence it is a matter of great importance to promote the education of emigrants and to take measures to elevate their character and make them awake to the conception that they are the subjects of Japan and in way represent the Japanese nation.

MULES LOSE BRAY IN
 FRANCE.
(By United Press)

WITH THE FRENCH ARMY IN THE FIELD, July 14.-(By Mail)- Uncle Sam rendered France a great service in letting her have his mules at a very good price-but France has returned the service a thousand times by solving the secret of a bray less mule, When the American pack mule arrived in France to do his bit" he, of course, brought his bray with him. The mule was welcome but the bray-well. any unusual sound on battle field is undesirable. It might tip off the Boche to a surprise attack.
 In an effort to put an end to the nightly Hove song" of the pack mule the French military officers decided to separate the sexes, and all gentle men mules were retained for service in one sector, while all of the lady mules were taken off for serglce in a more distant region.
 This produced a very marked re- suit. Nevertheless there still re- mained certain mules who either from force of habit or from conviction that both their love and their voice were strong that their lady loves would hear them no matter how far away they might be, persisted in making the welkin ring with gigantic bray just at the place and time when it would give the Boches the right .yue for sending hail of shells. grenades and rifle fire.
 The habits and temperament of the mule were then subjected to further and more profound study by the French and this time with more happy results. It was found that very slight operation performed on the nos trils of a mule would render him as silent as wrecked phonograph, and since then the American mules in the NosgeS have met all requirement. that could possibly be exacted from them.

F. NEW YORK, July 27. - Every once in while some one wonders why Pat Moran isn't considered, one of the greatest of baseball managers. there by giving Pat more consideration for what he has done than any other man in baseball = with the possible ex- ception of the party who has become the games greatest repudiator
 Pat. in fact, is the recipient of more favorable publicity than any other man in the two major leagues. No one ever writes or says anything bad about him. He always is referred to as a jolly Irishman, ready to talk and smile while he's doing it.
 Moran's accomplishment this year is throwing his team into hot race with the Giants for the leadership of the National league is worthy of more consideration, perhaps, than any stunt he has pulled sine he supplanted Chas. Dooing as leader of the Quaker team. he has pulled sine he supplanted beens and misfits than the New York Giants have accomplished with a higa. salaried team of stars.
 The Giants were expected by ma tority of critics to have 1t all settled and laid away along about this date. Rui- thsy haven't done 1t yet, and in dications right now point to anything but pleasant journey for Herzog, ct al, the rest of the season.
 Pat Moran's infield. composed of ancient Fred Lauderous, castoff Bert Niehoff, rookie MeGaffigan or compe- tent Dave Bancroft and castoff Milton Stock is the main reason why when rated alongside Grover Alexander These two things. backed with the comeback of Gavvy Cravath, the con tinued good baseball of Dode Paskert and George Whitted are whooping things up. The Phillies would not be so good in a world series as the Giants. for the Giants consist of men who would be practically unbeatable in worlds series. But it's going to take lot of baseball and a lot of hard fighting to keep Pat Moran from talk. ing the race right down into the home stretch. Next year Pat will be counted a stronger factor

LON DON TO NEW YORK
 TWO DAYS
(By Associated Press)

LONDON, July 28. transatlan tic line of airplanes, carrying passen
 gers between New York and London
 in two days, at total cost of about
 Sl mile was predicted by c. Holt
 Thomas, in an address which he de livered before the Aeronautical So
 ciety of Great Britain.
 To complete the rosy forecast films were displayed, showing the depar.- are and voyage of transatlantic air
 plane and also the dropping of mai
 pouches at postal air stations between
 London and the North of England.
 MT. Thomas, who has had large
 experience in flying and building air
 craft, said that airplane mail service
 could be established commercially.
 "A special aeroplane will enable. the
 business man to leave London in the
 morning, transact his business in Paris, and be home to dinner again" he said Tt will take him to Bag. dad in day and a half or to New York in two days"
 The cost from London to Paris, he added, would be just over a dollar per mile running one machine eacn way, and with four machines it would work out at 75 cents. A profitable charge for passengers would be S25. A mail letter of one ounce could fe profitably carried for one cent ano three pound parcel for 75 cents. A passenger could go from London to Marseilles in eight hours instead of twenty-three, at a cost of $50. Or mails could be carried for two cents an ounce
 Constantinople could be reached in twenty hours for $125 a passepe ar, and mails at five cents m )Ince. Dealing with farther distances ne pie. tured Ceylon as being only two and three-quarter days from Londcn. Tol 10 four and half days, sydney five | das. Capetown three and half days,
 and Vancouver three days. Lord Cowdraw, the chairman of t1,e ] meeting, said he believed Mir ] nomas'
 estimate of costs to be near the mark | and that it would not exceed dollar per mile. In his opinion commercial flying was bound to come. and come quickly, and 1t would not require g;v. ! ernment assistance after the first five or six years.

AlASkA'S CRUSTACEAN
 SUPPLY NOT REDUCED.

Alaska possesses practically un- touched resources in crustacean or shellfish products, according to Err nest P. Walker. inspector of the fish cries bureau. He has recently been engaged in Investigating the various scallops, clans, crabs, shrimp and other members of the family existing in northern waters.
 This country will unauestionahly some day be big producer of shell fish," said he. Special attention is being paid to the development of the scallops. We often find them in nets and fishing gear. which indicates that they abound. for in order to get seal lops normally considerable digging is necessary.
 Proof of the great clam resources is seen in results obtained from re- cent development of the beds near the mouth of the Copper river by the packers located at Cordoya. A recent shipment from there to Seattle com. prised 4,o0o cases, the largest single order of canned clans ever received at Puget sound port"
 To aid in fishing deveiopai ent he government has four inspectors an.i assistants and four herring cure ex- perts.
