country and nearly $4,000 priests
There are more than thirty branches of
Christian churches scattered throughout
the Mikado's empire. These sects main
tain 1898 churches and missions exclu-
sive of those devoted solely to educational
work OF the Christian enterprises, 6,201
are Protestant, $50 Roman Catholic and
SAT Russian Orthodox. Christian churches
own 932 church buildings and chapels,
valued at $84, 100000. The properties CT the
Christian churches are taxed, while those
of the Shinto and Buddhist sects are
exempt.
The total Christian constituency includ-
ing women and children, is estimated at
800, 900, of which more than 10000 are
Protestants, 10000 Roman Catholics and
about $4,000 Russian Orthodox. The
Christian churches maintain $3.50 Sunday
schools. with $4,000 scholars. or the
$500 foreignerssengaged in Christian work
in Japan 1900 are women and 700 men.
Besides these there are 4,500 Japanese
engaged in propagation of Christian work.
Christian sects maintain $50 educational
institutions with about As, 900 pupils. There
are fifteen Christian hospitals in the en-
pire, including a leper hospital at Kuma-
motto; seventeen orphanages eight rescue
homes, four sanitariums and nine nurseries.
The attitude of the Japanese Govern
ment toward Christianity Is passively In
dulgent. Missionaries agree that no OBJ
stacles are thrown in their way and that
they are permitted to exercise almost as
many privileges as they would be in any
Of the Western countries as long as they
do not meddle with internal politics.
The only opposition to Christian under
takings has been in Corea, where some Of
the outbreaks against Japanese rule have
been attributed to the influence of the
missions. In the Corean provinces the
ventures of the missionaries are rather
closely scrutinized
T>HE Japanese are very strong for holi-
days and festivals. In addition to
the fourteen regular national holi-
days there are great many local events
that provide excuses for dropping work.
The birthdays of Shinto and Buddhist gods
also give the Japanese a chance to indulge

newspapers printed in the vernacular as
not far from 100000 a day, which, If
true, would indicate that at least 25 per
cent. of the people read newspapers. The
newspaper with the largest clientele is the
Osaka Mdinichi, which has a circulation
around 100000, and which also publishes
the Nichi Nichi of Toxic, which has the
next largest. Probably the two most in
fuential papers in Japan are the Osaka
Asahi and the. Toxic Asahi, which it con-
trolls. The newspapers which are most
popular with the classes are the Nichi
Nich, the Hochi (owned by the Marquis
Okuma), and the Yorodsu. The Jill
Shimpo is generally read by politicians
and business men.
The most radical and anti-American pa
per in japan is the Robumin, with the
Niroku and the Seikt next. The Govern
ment organ is the Chuyo The Yomiur
is the most conservative.
Most of these papers are of four and ten
pages, and some of the most widely read
issue as many as ten editions a day. A
few of them illustrated They sell from Q
to 4 cents a copy.
or the papers printed in the English
language, the Japan Advertiser and the
Times, printed at Toxic, and the Chronicle,
at Kobe, are the most influential. The
circulation Is naturally limited. Some of
the vernacular and one or two Of the Eng.
lish papers spend large sums In cable tolls,
The Advertiser presents almost as compre-
hensive cable survey of the world every
day as THE New YORK HERALD, or lie Nd-
cton and La Prensa at Buenos Aires. or

News Agency, which is the most important
collector and distributor of news In the
Orient, receives the Reuter- service
TT is rather difficult for westerner
to keep track of or explain the diff
ferences between the various religious
sects and cults that exist in Japan. The
nearest approach to national religion
is Shintoism, which is based upon the
worship of the sun, pride of ancestry, re-
spect for age, love of nature and, above
all. unalloyed fealty to the Emperor.
Shintoism, which is divided into thirteen

tune for education. The largest library
in Japan is the Imperial, which contains
225, $4,000 volumes.
Physical culture for both men and women
is feature of all the schools of the en-
pire. Instruction is given in judo (jiu-
jitsu) fencing, and there is special physical
instruction for girls.
The leading educators of the country are
discussing the advisability of recommend
ing that the Government fix the compul-
sorry school term at eight years and that
complete revision Of the textbook be made
in order to exclude the large number of
Chinese ideographs which have crept into
the Japanese books. AS matter of fact,
more than onehalf of the Japanese written
characters are of Chinese origin.
THAT the Japanese are great readers
Of newspapers is shown by the fact
that some of The daily journals have
a larger circulation than newspapers pub
lished in the United States. A recent esti-
mate placed the combined circulation Of

sicipaied in by all the japanese in the most
congested quarter of Toxic was the Kanda
Nyojin, which was held near the Buddhist
shrine of that name. Fifty thousand peo-
pie contributed $150,000 to supply decora-
tions, and all the foreigners were invited.
The Susuiijin festival OF the Nihonbashi
fish merchants was another event cele-
brated by fishermen everywhere. These
festivals, which are encouraged by the Gov
ernment and Shinto and Buddhist priests,
are vividly costumed and appeal to most
appreciative audiences among the lower
classes, who cling tenaciously to the an
cient traditions. One play. acted by dwarfs
during the Hachiman festivals, was split
up into eleven acts and provided entertain
ment for twenty-seven hours.
THE japanese are very fond of the
movies. There are more than a
thousand picture houses, the most
important of which are in Toxic, Yoko
hama, Kobe, Nagasaki, Osaka and the
other large cities. American films with
those portraying Charlie Chaplin, Mary
bathing girls are most popular. The tariff
in the Japanese movie houses ranges from
30 cents to 81.
An innovation that the Japanese man
agement has provided is an interpreter,
who stands In the wings and tries to
explain the silent drama. He provides as
much fun as some OF the comedies and
is at times numerically guyed by the audi
ence.
When you enter Japanese movie you
are supposed to check your shoes or clogs
at the door. For foreigners, loose fitting
linen slippers are provided. These are
drawn over the shoes and technically con
form to the practice of removing the shoes.
Most of the Japanese movies deal with his
torical subjects and the acting in some Of
them is very good The best paid and most
popular movie actress is Miss Kagora, who
receives around $500 week. The best
movie comedy actor is Mr.. Hutu He earns
a trihe more.
The Government provides movies in
Hblya Park, adjoining the Imperial pal
ace at Toxic. Here during the summer
nights movie studies of nature and animals
are shown, as we'll as pictures illustrating
the benefits of sanitation, which attract
large crowds.
Some of the theatres in the larger towns
are beginning to reflect Western influences
in the substitution Of women in the female
roles which from time immemorial have
been essayed by men and the adaptation
Of American and European plays rendered
in the vernacular. At the Imperial Theatre
in Toxic I enjoyed some very good acting
by stock company headed by Mr.. Koshiro
Matsumota and Miss Ritsuki Mort, in four
plays calling for exceptional versatility.

in holiday. Sometimes these celebra-
tions are confined to neighborhoods and
the rest Of the country does not take any
interest in them.
The Hachiman celebration in mid-August
was celebrated for three days, during which
plays were given by dwarfs in ferocious
costumes, who duplicated the great mill
tary achievements of the long dead hero.

TT HERE is no standard of dress in
Japan, except among the women
who cling tenaciously to the pic
turesque and comfortable kimono, the high
Golf and the Gathering clog. The male
portion Of Japan dresses pretty much as it
pleases-and undresses, too, for that mat
ter, with complete Indifference to the views
of foreigners. The business and official
element affect the frock, cutaway, the Palm
Beach, the white duck and the sailor straw
hat, while the clerk and coolie holds on to
the kimono, the native style of knicker-
booker, or the dry bathing suit
IL the weather Is too warm he throws off
everything except the bathing suit and a

boys and students wear the divided skirt

TIME Japanese are very strong for
sports They do not go in for prize
fghting but the wrestling tourna-
ments held In the great amphtheatre in
Toxic and other cities in the winter and
spring attract audiences of from 10000 to
10000. Horse racing is only mildly in
dulged in, because the Government some
years ago prohibited betting. Meets are
held at Toxic. Yokohoma Kobe and Osaka
in the autumn.
The Japanese are very expert at tennis
and baseball Is gaining hold on the pub
lie. There are teams in most of the big
towns. but the sport has not been organ
