YOKOHAMA, Jan. 2L-Japan Is noting- with some satisfaction the sudden rise In Londeon In the value of her new loan bonds, which a day or two ago were quoted at Ui. a rise of three and three-quarter pounds. The war loan has Jumped up 1. The rise is attributed In some measure to the world tour of Marquis lto. The moderate views of Marquis lto as ex presed in New York together wUh Judicious "puffing" In London are be lieved to have already gone far to re store Japan to her normal position in the world markets. Marquis lto Is expected to return to Japan about the end of next month. Th diet after a holiday recess is considering the introduction of sev eral bills. It is expected that as 'a result of the victory of the cabinet over the constitutionalists, a result due, it Is said, to the telegraphic In structions of Marqu's lto, president of the opposition party, the budget will be passed by both houses. One of the chief measures contemplated Is a re vised banking bill, designed to pre vent the lnstirtulon of "wild cat" banks. United States citizens here are much interested In a rumor from New York of the posible establishment In Yoko hama of an American bank. It is eon- ceded here that the Americans suffer materially for the want of such an ihstlltution. All exchange affected by American clttcens Is calculated to In ure to the advantage of - European banks and considering the amortiza tion of the American share of the Chi nese indemnity and expenses of ileets and transports 1n these waters, to gether with the transaction of ordi nary private business, It Is thought that an American bank under Ameri can law could not fall to be a sound enterprise. The year's report show that Yokohama is again taking her old place as the premier port of Japan. Kobe had that honor last yera. One of the causes of the readjustment has been the unusual active condition this year of the raw silk trade, a large pro portion of which Is expected from Yokohama. Since ' the production of the fresh articles In June last up to the middle of this month some 100,009 paceds were sold. This is said to have been the most prosperous year in the raw silk trade since the opening of this port to commerce. The effect on foreign residents of the working of the revised treaties has lately been receiving considerable mieuuun. iue main aimcuiues re maining between foreigners and the ' Japanese government are in relation to the judiciary systems and the quotation of the right to exact house taxes and registration fees from hold- Pears' Is there any soap but v Pears' which has been sold in two centuries and is selling in the third? Sold all over Mm world. A ' ECONOMIZE in a telegram that the ers of property held under the "per petual lease" clause of the treaties. This house quotation Is exciting the government and householders at all the treaty ports. The English and French residents have secured the support of their home governments in their proposal to force a test case of the question. The American conting ent, however, seems to prefer to have Its rights reserved by the home gov ernment and to be willing to pay un der protest of necessary, being as sured that all such payments, if prov ed unnecessary would be refunded. The German residents are divided on the question which Is likely to be brought to a head before long. Sun Yat Sen, the well-known Chinese re former and revolutionist, who is now In Yokohama, recently surprised his followers by Intimating that he would henceforth abandon violent methods of reform in China, would disband his secret society of which he is the head and distribute its members over Am erica and Europe so that they might become educated and Inaugurate a campaign of education. Sun, whose kidnapping at the Chinese embassy in London created a sensation few years ago, Intends to return to China when the Chinese court reopens and is now paving the way for his return. He is understood to be a marked man in China and social reformers there have latterly been receiving ishort shifts. The representative of the Emperor of Japan, at the forthcoming corona tion of King Edward, will be Prince Komatsa. who has twice been to Eu rope and is especially welt-known to the P.ritish royal family. He will be accompanied by a suite of high of ficials of the imperial household de partment and prominent military and naval officers and will leave Japan during April. Rev. R. S.

It ts th custom of stun dema g.xtues to claim that all America up resentatlves at th cour. of St. Juntos are snoba Th United States doe not advance snobs to such a position as Ambassador to Great Britain. Sure ly no man la less of snob than Joseph II. Choat. There hav been very many good stories told of Ambassador Choaite since he has represented this country In England. On of the most popular Is to the efTeet tlmt at some glittering function In London a titled blunderer mistook th black-coated American for a servant and said to him: 'Vail m a cab." "Certainly, sir. You are a cab!'' retorted Choat. In high dudgeon his lordship fcunted up the host and lodged complaint. He was Informed of the mistake that he had made, and then the host hunted up Mr. Choate to straighten the mat ter out. "Oh, that Is all right." Choat aald. "I culled him cab, and had he been a little nicer about It, I would have called Mm a hansom cab." Whether the story Is true or not, it should be and those who know Joseph H. Choate can easily believe that It happened as told. The name Choate is always coupled with thoughts of the legal professlim. and Joseph Hodges Choate by his career at th bar has well upheld the reputation of the great Uufus, ruinous in American legal history. J. H. Choate was born In Stilem, the quaint j old town with its memories of witches. ; He ts now Just "0 years old. having been born on January 24, ISM, He graduated at Harvard In V&S and at the Dane Law School In ISM. Ho was admitted to the bur in Massachusetts j but did not practice long in that state. He wanted broader opportunities than even Boston offered him, and hung out a modest shingle. It did mrt take ! him very long to build up a splendid practice. Perhaps his name helped. Anyone wouhl have confided In the le gal ability of a man named Choate. The young lawyer had something more than a name, however. He had a splendid knowledge of the law and a Pmcuiany. nueu tor nis pro fession. During the year when Mr. Choate was engaged In the active practice of his profession he was connected with many famous cases. He was counsel for General "Fits-John Porter In the protracted investigation at West Point before the board of officers appointed by President Hayes, which resulted in a reversal of the original court-mar-ttal. He also appeared for General Cesnola In the famous libel Suit brought against him by Gaston L. Fensrdent .which, after a most sen sational trial, resulted in a disagree ment of the Jury. While Mr. Choate Is a brilliant ad vocate, It is upon his wisdom as a counselor that his splendid legal repu tatlon is most firmly built. Large fees for important opinions have made Mr. Cnoat8 a very wealthy man. n(iv . - fn,i-. ),. i always b?en a staunch party man but i iicrn mi (din r-iwr uri . in 1,111. nun - I. when tne CUy of NfW Tork awoke tne fact tmu WM bgng plundered by a gang of polt'cal rob- bers.

A remarkable example of cunning has been unearthed in on of our large prisons. A convict had perfected a die and was making silver dollars, and distributing them through accom plices on the outside. Naturally the officials were very much surprised at the discovery, but no more so than the person who receives a counterfeit article In place of the genuine.

No other remedy is today or ever has been openly and publicly endorsed by medical authorities. And Paine's Celery Compound is in no sense a pat ent medicine. From th very first its formula was, and it is today, freely fur nished to physicians in good standing anywhere. No man or woman whose nervous system is not in perfectly healthy con dition can properly perform the work that is his or hers to da No person with shattered nerves can Vttn he race of life in competition with the healthy man. While this Is true in every call ing, there is no better example than the case of the engineers who guide the passenger trains on the railroads. And it is true that no one class of work men furnishes s better example of what Paine's Celery Compound can accomplish than the railroad engineers of America.
