straightening out affairs is not at all apparent and the Interest Is maintained throughout The second act Is the best of the play Miss Gallatin and Mr Rogers have almost the entire act to them selves and both prove themselves to be artists Their dream of love which came to such an abrupt and painful ending gave both an opportunity to do some wonderfully clever both were equal to the occasion Miss

kind As to Japan the problem is equal uncertain The future Is In the gras of the oriental mind This wo say wo cannot fathom At least no on has been yet a wholly prophet Mostly the oriental mln is like any other mind It sees clearl and acts accordingly But It Is ol very old nnd our race of Saxon pa venua on the field ot history canni grasp Its sinuosities A few things aro certain One is this old Japan has como to the parting of the ways The one loads through military glory to em pire to the limelight glare and scare heads of newspapers to national bank and political degradation The other leads through economy patience education development of resources to the highest achievements of the highest races Doubtless Uio future will he between the two for history never throws a clean switch but It is DIVERGING ROADS Doubtless the great Indemnity WEB o be the chief agency In the Hme ght program and the loss ot this In may prove to be a saving In In Japan This Indemnity could have been used for just Japan will find moel hurtful swollen army and navy a subsidized protected manufactures he appearance of prosperity and the mailed flat for the holding ot Korea and Manchuria Peace without subsidy checks this Moneylenders charge a high rate of Interest on their contributions o glory Some part ot this program cannot be avoided though withal there must be an Increase In taxes Korea will remain Japanese Togo will lead a fleet and there must be trained cers and a standing army The need of this and the dangers from Japan ese jingoism are alike reduced by the sobering alliance with Great Britain Japan has yet to learn the art of do things on a large scale and do them right Art In Japan Is a matter ot exquisite development Nothing can be more refined more Japanese things ot beauty But many things not beautiful are needed In Japan and are made there but on the whole not as the Europeans make them and not as well Japanese Is too often clumsy and crude It Is counted that In factory work ono American workman Is worth four Japanese So that In the large common Japanese labor Is not cheap In the crudest things for which coolie labor can be used Cheap labor Is never cheap That is cheap est In which the Individual man counts most It Is true that Japan has great manufacturing cities Osaka Is as large as Manchester or and her smoke bangs as black over the green fields But It will be many years before Osaka can be a rival to these cities In commercial output Yet In the evolution of things that time will come and the sooner the better not yet clear which set of
