GILBERT WRITES.
ProfesBor Fowler hoe just received
hlH letter from A. W. Gilbert, an old
Jnl. man now ongagod In Y. M. C. A.
.vork In tho Orient:
Vewchang, Manchuria, Nov. 2f, 190-1.
?rof. L. Foeslor, Uncoln, Nob.:
My Dear Professor Fosslcr. One
need never bo Hurprlaed at anything"
jn tb 1b Bide of tho globo bocnuso so
many unexpected thlngH happen that
ill one'H time would be given to won
dering what won coming next. We
wore hardly Bottled In Peking In our
homo boforo a requoHt came from
Japan that I go to Nowchang to open
tho Y. M. C. A. work among tho Jap
anese Boldlers Btationod there and ho
I camo November 6th, and will stay
until January Int.
In one respoct ut least tho work for
tho Japanese 1h vory pleasant, namely,
tho personal troatmont tho Y. M. C. A.
secretary 1b receiving at tholr hands.
Since coming hero I have boen official
ly recognized by the authorities and
treated moro as a government official
than m a Y. M. C. A. Becretary.
Of all tho pollto peoplo In tho world
tho Japanese aro certainly In tho load.
Sometimes It In amusing nud then nt
other times cxcrutlatlng. You first,
my dear Alfonso. After you, my dear
Gaston," suroly must have originated
in tho land of tho Rising Sun. I re
cently attonded the birthday of a
prominent merchant hero at which tho
only lady present was his witc. After
a Bumptous repast wc retired to tho
drawing room and tho lady withdrew
to another room wc were at tho ho
tel. Presently tho lady returned and
approached tho ompty chair which was
standing botwoen two others occupied
by gcntlomon. Sho would have mado
it with no trouble to anyone had theBo
two gallants not seen her unobtrusive
ly ndvnnclng. Sho was a very modest
llttlo lady, and rather shay. They
knew this, but that made no differ
ence; hero wafl an excellent oppon
tunlty to show their gallantry, so up
they popped, each man profusely apol
ogizing for being seated In her pres
ence and offering her his chair. There
they stood, bowing aa only Japanese
can, and each Insisting upon tho con
fused lady accepting his chair. The
other foreigner and myself could not
refrain from laughing at theso two
mon uelng nom at bay by one nine
woman. Tho situation was all the more
amusing because tho mon wcro old
bacholora. Woll, after thoy had ex
hausted their vocabulary of politeness,
tho lady had her way (as usual) for
sho took the float sho first started for
and tho mon subdued and turnod tho
conversation Into another channel.
Nolthcr tho Japanese nor "the Chinese
shako hands. Tholr manner of saluta
tion and farewell 1b bowing and speak
ing Bomo words of greeting or farewell
as tho caso may be. In business both
aro slow, but tho Japaneso fo at things
with a vim as soon as tho Idea is
thoroughly .planted,- while tho -Ohtatt-man
goes around with an Important
air, aa though ho was omniscient, and
had a Ufo tlrao in which to accomplish
this ono thing wfolch tho "forolgn
dovil" had revealed to him. Both na
tions are vory inqulsltlvo. but tho
Japaneso Inquires thoroughly and min
utoly, whllo tho Chinaman is moro llko
a boy flvo years old tho sarao thing
interests hima long time. Both peo
ple havo a rea.dy way of Baying "job"
to everything, but raroly understand
you with ono tolling. To make uro of
being understood, you must toll an
English speaking Japanese tho samo
thing at least three times, and a Chin
aman soven or eight times, or until
ho finally understands. It Is Impossi
ble tQ .do official business with the
Japanese without first taking tea. Tills
is considered as Important ns offering
a guest a scat.
What about tho war? Why. tho
Japanese aro glong to -win, of course.
What then? I will not vojituroa, pro
fiction. However, I think wc arc safe
v,n saying that China will be more open
to foroigners than ovor before for this
reason, viz: that sho is looklug to
Tapan for pointers, and Japan's policy
la to ac8opt teaching from the western
nations I may say that aJpan will
llBtcn to any nation, but will accept
only that which Bhc thinks is best. SJ10
Is fast breaking away from all supor
atltion. I have been talking lately
with ono of her greatest teachers of
English who was conscripted and is
a sergeant in tho transportation of
fice at this place, and have been very
much impressed with the possibilities
of this rising aatlon. He is a Chris-

tlan as aro many of the high officials
here. I suppose that thoro are few per
sons In America who can discusa or
expound English grammar as can Ser
geant J. Nagura. He can not speak
rapidly, in English, but his grammar
Is faultlosH.
Speaking from an unselfish and so
ciological point of view. Japan Is Just
the nation to open China. Of couse,
whether tho greed of the powors will
rcrmlt this Ih another question. It
will mean that the Asiatics aro ,goln;
to enter commercial competition In
earnest, that tho adventurers and grafl
cr. who aro too unscrupulous to make
new pastures. They are a disgrace to
tboir country here, and many would
doubtless bo behind prison bars were
they whero Justlro could deal with
them. Of courso there aro many ener
getic and honest business men here,
who would also find It moro congenial
for the most part to look elsowhere
for a profitable business; hut whether
thlsvwould not be desirable for man
kind as a whole, Is a question too big
for mo.
Sincerely yours,
A. W. GILBERT.
