WEEKLY WO. 693 1 SEMI-WEEKLY NO 4451 - Power Latest U. S. Gov't Ri eport . Bbbbbbk A JAPANESE ROMANCE. The love Story or Count Ito, Told by Sir Edwin Arnold. Of Count Ito, the distinguished Jap anese statesman, Sir Edwin Arnold Rives us this interesting1 incident: "I sat at the table with the cx-premier and his wife and children. The countess, quiet, gentle, motherly and wearing spectacles, carving the tai and the kamo with such matronly serenity had yet a history of romance and de votion which could make the wildest fictionist's fortune. "Long ago, in those dark and WnnrW days when the minister was her lover and a fugitive from his enemies, there came a time when they had tracked him to her house and had chosen a band of Soshis to assassinate him. The noise of their clogs and the rattling of their scabbards were heard and the count, trapped like a stag in his mountain pleasance, drew his Bizen blade and prepared to die, as a Jap anese lord should, amid a circle of foes. But while he murmured 'Saganorel' and knitted his fingers around the shark skin hilt of his sword that bravo lady whoso guest I was whispered: 'Do not die; there is hopo still,' upon which sho removed the hlbaehi, or .firebox, over which they were i sitting, and, lifting up the mat VjKand Planks beneath, induced her lover to conceal himself in the hollow space which exists under the floor of all Japanese homes. The murderers broke into the room, a ferocious band, just as the firebox had been replaced and the countess had assumed a posi tion of nonchuluncc. "They denmuded their victim and when sho protested against their in trusion and bade them search if they wanted Ito, tho wretches dragged her uround tho apartment by her long, beautiful bluck hair now touched with silver and grievously maltreated her, but could not shako her resolute fideli ty. Thanks to this Count Ito, the hero of many another strange adventure, cseuped from tho chief peril of his career and has lived to glvo his country anew constitution and to be one of the foremost and best respected states men of modern Japan." i Old-Tlme Football.
