Interest and Memories,
Rev. William Carter, In Japan"

At Nagasaki you are to get your
last glimpse OF Japan until your
homeward trip but the last glimpse
Is even better than the first. Nagasaki
is certainly beautiful for situation. 1t
rises from the sea like Aphrodite in
her beauty and seems to have been
born Of the sea in the same way.
Nagasaki will be interesting to the
artist, the historian and the church,
man alike. while the average tourist
will be interested in it's shops and it's
mother OF pearl and tortoise shell
work which are the chief industries
here for tourist use.
1t was through Nagasaki that the
From 1641 to 1858 it was the only
place in japan where the Dutch and
Chinese-to the exclusion Of all other
foreigners-were allowed to remain.
Here they were confined to the little
island of Deshima then only 600 feet
above high tide. 1t was here that the
Shogun's famous or infamous decree
Of 1880. was promulgated, after he had
beheaded most OF an embassy Of
Portuguese missionaries from Macao
and excluded all but the Dutch and
sent back by the few missionaries he
spared and which SO shocked the
world, read thus: "Henceforth, any
one who puts his foot on Japanese
soil, be he the king Of Portugal or
even the God Of the Christians. shall
be put to DEATH"
On ono of the other islands stands
'Hijiri-Yama" or Saints HILL" where
scores OF Christians were burned at
the stake, beheaded and even cruci-
fed, showing that their enemies knew
the Christian method OF martyrdom.

PUTS AND CALLS ARE
UNDER INVESTIGATION

NEW YORK, February 26.-Acting
under instructions from the commit
tee on quotations and commissions of
the New York Stock Exchange, E. v.
D. Cox. its secretary. has addressed
a letter to members of the exchange
calling for answers to the following
questions:
as it your practice or that Of your
firm at any time to issue privileges
(puts and calls)?
rs IL your practice or that of your
firm to indorse privileges of this char
acter issued by firms or individuals
not members of this exchange?'
1t is understood that the informa-
tion is sought for the purpose Of de-
termining whether the rules govern
ing trading in puts and calls. by
members Of the exchange should be
amplified and made more stringent?
In the absence of a statement re-
garding the motive of the exchange
authorities, 1t was suggested in
brokerage circles that the question of
a further Tightening of the regula-
tions covering transactions of that
character arose from q desire to elm
mate the possibility Of fraudulent
paper in puts and calls.

Arnold was an importer of perfume.
More than a decade ago the disap-
pearance of Dorothy Arnold for
weeks filled the first pages of tho
newspapers. 1t Is one of the great
unsolved mysteries.
Detectives hired by the Arnold fam
lily traced the movements of the beau
tiful girl to her purchase Of candy In
a drug store on 6th avenue near 6Sth
street and her passing out through
the door into the crowd OF shoppers.
Here she dropped from view as COM
pletely as IL the sidewalks had opened
and swallowed her Later her brace
let and rings were discovered pawned
in Philadelphia, but at that point the
Arnold family strangely called on the
quest.
Mystery ponderers are about equal

she died in some hospital and those
who surmise that she Is still alive.
