Tokyo. After six years' labor nnd
an expenditure estimated nt $10,000,
000, the national shrine to the Into
Kmperor Mutsuhito wns opened re
cently with solemn Shinto ceremonies,
and amid impressive manifestations
of loyalty. For three days the popu
luce of Tokyo celebrated the occasion.
Kvcry street was decorated with bunt
ing, and from the humblest door lan
terns were displayed at night.
The municipality gave a flower show
and opcn-nlr performances and the
atrical performances In Illblyu park,
but for the most part the festivities
were co-oponitlvoly organized by the
citizens In different wards. At hun
dreds of central points stages had
been erected, where vaudeville shows
were given and there were llrcworks
both, night and day.
Thousands From Country.
Over 250,000 persons from the coun
try districts visited the city during
the festival.
The shrine Is u typical Shinto build
ing of plain wood, and of the simplest
possible construction. The opening
ceremony was attended by over 2,000
persons and olllclals, and lasted about
three hours The central feature was
the delivery to Prince Ichljo, warder
of the shrine, of the name tablets of
the late emperor, and their Installa
tion In the inner sanctuary.
I'rlnco Kujo, a relative of the em
peror, delivered a commemorative ora
tion to which Prince Ichljo replied.
The shrine was thereafter opened to
the public nnd nt least 000,000 people
worshiped before It during the re
mainder of the day.
The scene where these multitudes
of people were pnylng their respects
to the memory of tho dead emperor
was Impressive. The main entrnncu
to the shrine Is by means of a new
and very broad road about two miles
In length. Along this road nil the day
and evening two grout strings of peo
ple poured, ono going to tho shrine,
the other returning.
The wholo of this roadway was
brilliantly lighted and decorated with
Hags and ornamental lanterns. But
once the torll at tho entrance to tho
shrlno had been pnssed a great chnngo
came over tho scene. Tho modem
world was left behind, the gold and
red ornamentation censed and tho rest
of the way wns inndo under the shndo
of gigantic pine trees, which might
have been part of the virgin forests
of old Japan.
Pilgrims were admitted In groups of
about 200. Their Journey ended In a
small paved courtyard Inclosed with n
low wall. The shrine, a low, severely
plain building! was opposite the gate
way, and by the dim light of two largo
pnper lanterns about a dozen white
robed priests were seen moving slow
ly back and forth within tho doorway.
They were sweeping up the coins that
rained continually on the steps of the
shrine.
Voices Are Silent.
Not n sound could be heard except
the light hand-clapping of the wor
shipers calling on the enshrined spirit
of tho emperor. No human voice wns
heard. There was not even nn nudlblo
prnyer; In completo silence tho multi
tude pnld their respects to tho spirit
of MciJI and pussed on.
On tho two following days the
shrine was ngnln visited by hundreds
of thousands, and tho proceedings
were enlightened, by wrestling nnd oth
er public entertainments near the
shrine. The crown prince, on behnlf
of tho emperor, worshiped nt the
shrlno on tlw second day.
It Is Intended to associate tho young
men of Japan especially with the
Meljl shrine. A huge stadium will bo
built In tho grounds of the shrlno,
and It Is expected that tho principal
athletic events of Japnn will bo con
tested there In the future.
