THE REASON WHY
HE reason why American sentiment is overwhelmingly
on the side of Japan may not be apparent to Count
Cassini nor to the government he represents at Washington, but it is apparent to the American people, and is
most clearly expressed in the following extract from an article in a recent number of the Journal of the American
Asiatic Association:
“A diplomacy of unblushing falsehood and a policy of
brute force are the weapons which Russia has steadily employed in her advance from the Ural Mountains to the Pacific. A frontier that no treaties could confine and a lust for
territory that no concessions could satisfy have been the uniform accompaniments of the secular advance of the empire
of the Czar. It isa perception of the fact that Japan is fighting the battle of ¢ivilization that, apart from all considera—
tions of trade and commerce, has created a sentiment among
the American people which can hardly fail to determine the
attitude of their government duripg the course and at the
conclusion of the pending conflict.”
The Czar may not have known the fact, but his representatives at Washington ought to have known and communicated the fact of the overwhelming force of American
sympathy against the claims of Russia in the pending conflict. The American public is an observer of foreign events
as keen as the European public, if not even more so. The
American may not be able to draw the finely spun conclusions the European may be able to draw from the course of
events nearer his home, and more directly affecting him, but
it is the far greater probability that the soundness of his judgment is all the more assured because he lets theories go by
the board and acquaints himself with facts.
It cost Russia but little to anchor her fleet in the waters
At the Hotel Antlers the party comprising the best sustained.group which
carried off the honors at Company O’s
recent masquerade will be banqueted
this evening. Souvenir mena cards
of an artistic design have been printed
for the occasion, and the very best
obtainable in the market will comprise
the elaborate spread. The following
named persens will partake of the
feast: Misses Daisy Shaver, Lizzie
Richards, Bertha Shaver, May Richards,
Joseph Siddles, Joseph Blight, Frank
Williams, James Michell.

addition to its fraternal insurance

Superior Court.
The following business was trans-.
acted in the Superior Oourt today
Judge F. T. Nilon presiding:
Estate of Edward Miller, deceased.
Inventory and agpraisement filed
by Jobn Mulroy, Richard Stager and
Jerry Kelly, appraisers. Interest in
the Fahey quartz mine fixed at $100,
Order to show cause why order of sale
of real estate should not be made.
‘A Foolish Virgin.
Miss Mary Kilcullen, of St. Louis,
owned $2000 ia greenbacke, which she
carefully hid beneath the carpet in
her bedroom. While she religiously
looked under the bed each night to see
that no burglar lay hidden there, days
and months went by without her looking after the money, as she thought it
safe and secure. Now it seems that
her home was infested with rats and
mice and one day when she went to
procure a five-dollar note from her
hoard she was borrifled to find that
they had discovered the hiding place
of her money and had made a nice little cosy nest of it. The bille were all
of New York Harbor during the Civil War, and it cost her
less for the reason that when her fleet dropped anchor the
cause of the Union had been assured—and Russia dearly
loves the winning side. Moreover, the American public has
an old-time predilection in favor of good faith and its constant observance between nations and peoples, together with
a keen admiration for a little and a new nation that knows
when a greater power is only playing for time, and breaks
the play by vigorous and manly action. The reason for
American sympathy with Japan is plain, and if Russia
should come to an ability to appreciate the reason she will
be farther to the front for good faith and honor among nations than she is today—and it will be better for her and*for
her people.—Cincinnati Commercial T ribune.

THE JAPS AS SOLDIERS
N officer of the United States Army who happened to be
AN in NewYorkfrecently, and who is qualified to speak both
from training and experience, of the armies of Russia
and Japan, expressed his amazement at the popular impres—
sion that as soon asthe scene of the war in the Fast shifted
from sea to land there would be a corresponding change in
the favor of fortune.
“Why,” he said, “I know the make-up of both armies.
Whatever may be said of the officers, the line of the Russian
land forces is made up of badly-paid, badly-housed, badlyfed men of a low grade of intelligence. They are in poor
mental and physical condition and they are not personally
interested one way or the other in the outcome of any war in
which they may be ordered to engage.
“On the other hand, it is hard to underestimate the
amazing qualifications of the Japanese rank and file. These
little brown men—in strong contrast to their enemies—have
all péen well taken care of, They are well paid, well housed
and full of intelligence. Every one of these little brown fellows is trained like an athlete and the army is always kept
even individually in the best of conditions. From the highest officer down to and through the men behind the guns they
are all enthusiasts, and all have studied and become familiar
witn.the topography of the country in which they “are now
called upon ‘fight. Far from matters changing when naval
fights give place to land battles, I expect to see the real sur—

It was well nigh impossible to find a
whole note. Miss Kilcullen wept, and
then some one told her that the United
States Treasury would redeem the
pieces and issue her new greenbacks
in lieu thereof. She sent them on to
Washington, but the Treasury experts
could piece out the notes to the value
of only $800, and this sum was allowed
her. Her neighbors knew that she
had $2000 under the Carpet, and go she
took her troubles to her Congressman,
Representative Hamlin. She being a

World’s Fair Notes
St. Louis is determined to have the
biggest and best exposition the world
has ever seen if Uncle Sam doesn’t lay
ap a cent.
Only a short time now to the opening of the World’s Fair. And completing the preparations seems a bigger job now than Phileas Fogg’s journey sround the world. Pe
No rag time music at the Louisiana
Purchase Exposition! What boots
it whether there are low rate excursions to the show or not?
If your uncle has an aunt who bas a
nephew whose wife has a cousin that
is married to an old friend of your
wife’s sister, whose grandfather used:
to live in the same town with an old
schoolmate of youre, whose son-in-law
is now in St. Louis, you should at once
renew the acquaintance with a view of
saving hotel bills while attending the
World’s Fair. This seheme can be
worked successfully in many inatances.
Secretary Grant Thomas, of the Wisconsin World’s Fair Commission, estimates that 80,000 Wolverines will attend the World’s Fair this year.
King Edward has granted permiesion to the band of the Grenadier
Guards of London to play at the
World’s Fair. Two concerts a day for
a period of six weeks, beginning on
