JAP ANCESTOR WORSHIP
Indifference Of Students Causing
Government Concern


Toxic, July THE Indifference of
Japanese students above the middle
middle school to ancestor worship is
causing the government considerable
concern, according to K. Yamada,
chief Of the Shinto affairs bureau in
the Home Department, who address
ed the general conference of the
Shinto priests of Japan. Ancestor
worship is the fundamental religious
custom in this country and is closely
related to national generation for the
imperial family and the imperial an
cestors.
at is regrettable that the higher
the education students receive in this
country, the more Indifferent is their
faith in ancestral spirits" said Mr..
Yamada.
Judging from the number of visi-
tors to the shrines and the amount OF
contributions such pilgrims make,
there Is every reason to conclude that
despite the growing predominance Of
foreign Objectionable ideas in this
country since the late war, the spirit
of worshipping ancestral shrines still
remains intact.
"a serious fact, however, is that
whereas the elementary school chill
dren are always sincere and earnest
in their faith, students studying in
schools higher than middle schools
show indifference towards such a
matter" The worshipping of ances-
trail shrines Is SO closely associated

RECALL OLD SCENES.
New UIm May Observe
Long Ago Event
HISTORY OF MASSACRE
But Few People Now Living
Who Participated In the
Stirring Times

There Is a quiet movement in New
Ulm crystalizing toward the arrange
ment of the celebration of the six
tieth anniversary Of the Indian mas
sacre during the month Of August OF
next year, says The New Ulm Journal.
The fiftieth celebration was held in
1912, when a whole week was given
over to the anniversary. This was
one of the biggest events ever staged
in the history of southern Minnesota,
and attracted thousands to New Ulm.
Pioneers and old residents came to
this city from every state in the
union and the celebration was one
never to be forgotten.
AS the cycles of time go forward,
each year a number of those, who
took part in the memorable struggle
between the white settlers and the
red men, pass to their reward, and
1t will be but few short years I'M
til there are none left to tell the tale,
who were present during those trying
days of frontier life.
This Is one reason, that the move
taking form. If the seventy fifth
anniversary is awaited, it is doubt
full if any Of those hardy pioneers
who carved the city of New Ulm and
Brown county from the wilderness
will be left, who took part in the
Indian massacre, in 1852.
Would Attract Thousands
With the automobile in general use
the celebration would attract thous-
and and it is expected that New
Ulm would be called upon to share
it's hospitality with the largest
crowds that ever visited the city,
monument was dedicated, when 1t is
estimated that twenty thousand WISH
tors were present.
Nine years ago in August the en-
tire week, from Monday 10 to Sun
day the 25th, inclusive, were given
over to the celebration of the events,
which occurred fifty years preceding.
The celebration events were many
and varied and New Ulm never held
such a successful celebration. 1t was
unprecedented in the annals Of the
Minnesota valley.
Can Go One Better =
The celebration next year, IL it is
decided to hold one, will be superior
conditions have changed with the
coming of the automobile into gen.
eral use and the good roads permit
ting every section of the northwest,
travel Is much more facile.
The impending celebration was one
of the reasons why the celebration
of the Fourth in New Ulm was not
considered more favorable than 1t
was this year. 1t is not New Ulm's
custom to arrange for celebration
of any kind unless it Is of the best
and it was thought that it would be
better to pass the celebration on the
Fourth this year and arrange for a
big home coming next year, to cele-
brate the sixtieth anniversary Of the
Indian massacre. .:

ing to splice high tension wire
which was torn loose in Tuesday
nights storm. Six thousand six hun
dred volts passed through the mans

would scarcely know it. Neither his
clothing or any part of his body was
burned which is very peculiar in an
accident of this nature.
In stepping on the high tension
wire and grasping the opposite end
with his hand a complete circuit was
formed which frooze him to the spot.
Harold Atwood, also an employee of
the Armstrong Electrical company
and a farmer living nearby, attempt
ed to release him, but Of no avail.
Death was practically instantaneous.

KING SIAM KNOWS HOW
Shows How to JiIt Girl Without Risk
Of Breach Promise Suit

OF 1TSdCn PROMISE Suit
~ UNIFIED Press Dispatch.1
Bangkok, Siam July Here's how
to tilt a girl without risk of a suit for
breach of promise. You have to be an
eastern potentate to get away with 1t,
however. ~
When King Rama vi. of Siam met
Princess Vallabha Devi on shopping
expedition, he announced by royal pro-
clamation that he proposed marrying
her, and the local press daily referred
to the couple as the Sun and Moon,
with true Eastern reverence.
When however, he changed his
mind recently, the King did it this
way, also by royal proclamation Of
which the following Is a full transla-
ton:
"By Command of the Kings Most
Excellent Majesty-Whereas, in pro-
claiming His Majesty's bcthrothal and
for this purpose promoting MoHC Chow
(Her Serene Highness Princess) VAL
labha Devi to the title OF Phra Varak-
anayiapadan, (the Kings bethrothed)
Phra Ong Chow Her Royal HighnessJ
(Princess Vallabha Dew, His majesty
had no other desire than firmly and
definitely to ensure the succession to
the throne with view to the good of
the country, as well as the happiness
Of his own person:
"ADd whereas, to His Majesty's
6eepeEt regret. it has now become ap-
parent, beyond alldoubt, that His Ma :
jesty's noble desire, as above stated,
cannot satisfactorily be met owing TO
the incompatibility of temperament be
tween His Majesty and Her Royal
Highnes Princess Vallabha Devi,
which may DO accounted for by the
chronic indisposition of the Princess,
whose nervous system leaves much
to be desired, so much so that His
Majesty is under the Apprehension
lest in the event of the royal marriage
being permitted to take place unde-
sirable consequences may follow in re :
gard to the succession to the Throne.
'Now therefore, His Majesty has
commanded that the Proclamation re-
iating to His Majesty's bethrothal is
hereby =annulled"
