Toklo contain million ana a halt of
PopU under Ova feet high, who appear to
axiat on manner aent from heaven.
Moat of the people In Toklo aril gome
thin; which fetches next to nothing, and
oo New Year'a ava, when all debts muat b
paid and they aell everything they have,
thajr go to each other'a aalea, like the peo
ple of Porto Santo, who live by doing each
other'a washing now that there la no money
In the Island for pickpocket.
Not (hat the Japanese are given to steal
ing. They are honest enough, except the
tradesmen, who In Japan form the lowest
claes except the beggar. Even they steal
with their tongues and not their fingers. I
don't see how the people In Toklo live.
They don't eeem to manufacture anything
except university graduatea, and, though
It's a port, there'a hardly enough water for
a Junk. University atudenta are the curs
of the country; they grow into aoshl the
socialists of Japan.
The Socialist of Japnn.
"What are aoshl?" I asked the British
onsul.
"Psople'wbo have too much education and
too little to eat."
Students swarm In tb streets and In the
temples, which are the loaBng placea in
Japan. Tou know them because they wear
Japanese klmonoa and German eaps and lm
Itatlon German shoes and spectacles per
haps they think them, too, psrt of the na
tlonal tradition for upslde-downneas; It Is
they who expel the muter, not th master
who expel them.
Th whole life of tb poor In Japan la a
comedy to those who do not hav to live It.
It scene ta laid In the street. Th poor
Japanese simply live In the street, they sit
outside their houses when they have done
their work, ltke Blcllane; not that sitting
outside makes any difference, because thsy
take the front off of their houses whenever
It la fine enough.
They are only apologies for houses, any
way. I have seen houses which had not
cost a sovereign and a man not Ave feet
high with a hand bucket putting out a
blase which was coming through his roof.
The Japanese has his own notions about
roofs. When he Is building his house he
builds the root first; town roofs are made
of heavy channelled tiles and weigh more
than all the rest of the house. They tani
typhoons better and experience has taught
htm that In typhoon it is not your own
roof which falls on you. There Is noth
iDg private In. his house, because there Is
nothing In it but a fire box when Its beds
arc relied up and It owner Inside.
. Horse Scarce In Japan.
The first thing you notlcs In a Japanese
treet after the clatter of ologa Is the ab
sence or Horses. They nave a Tew, but a
child would not know that they were
horse. They are more like bears. They
ought to be labelled, like the articles In
hop windows. The Japanese tailor puts
up a notice. "These are trousers."
The beast of burden in Japan are
human. I have aoen a atone street roller
drawn by a hundred cool lea, and a man
drawing a hay cart, and a man carrying a
cartload of bay upon hi back. They do
1 wot -use wagons, but hand carts' drawn by
. on or : two men. It the object Is very
heavy, Ilk a piano. It 1 carried. Fur
little Jap can carry a plann with ease,
lung on bamboos like th shoulder pieces
used by London milkmen before they went
Into partnership with the water com
panies.
Th human horse is more used for cabs
. than carta. There I always a rlksha bowl
Ing past or crawling for hire, or leaning on
it haft, arj at night the bobbing of the
rikshs lanterns la one of the feature of
Japan. No on uses a four-legged horss
without a man to run In front of it who
IJuw a child' horn and acts as a human
cowcatcher. He Is wanted, for there is no
country, not even Italy, nor even horseless
Venice, whsr people make a bona of th
street as they do In Japan.
Children la the Streets.
Th middle of th road 1 devoted to chll
drsa, little girl playing at skipping rope
with bafle on tbslr backs, little boys play
ing oattieaore ana shuttlecock past your
nese, and peg-tops past your toea. And
you run the rlak of being hanged by old
people flying kite from roof on a level
with your neck. 81dwalks In a popular
treet are taken up with stalls. Th pipe,
mender cleans pipes at ten a penny and
carries a box like a shos-black; th ameya
make toy out of dough, blowing them
Ilk glass, mostly cocks anl Cupids with
out noses, and th children's cooking-stall,
a fasolnttlag copper stov.
' As th children who play at It are about
4, it la not an Ideal toy, but It ia or course
popular, because children have elemental
tastes; they like playing with fire even bet
ter than with water. The piccaninny, which
looks as if It had been bought at Liberty's
with Ita apeckUd scarlet dr.ss, Its beady
eyea, it waxy fao and it shaven head
with top and stds knots, put down t rash
and cooks. Its cash Is potty cash, a coin
with a hole In It, of which you can buy
about a thousand on a straw string for
nlnepence. For this It has hot only the
right of burning Its fingers, but receives a
patch of dough to cook. These atalla are
always surrounded by children who look
woodsrfully wise, only you would know that
they weren't dolls If they didn't run at th
no a
Little Heate of Little People.
Rl Japaaes street art unltk anything
European; you can almost see over the
house. Jn th treaty porta there are a few
streets. Ilk the Glnza at Toklo quite
English, having houses with door and win
flows, and shop with counters. The ordi
nary atreets are rather monotonoua, because
they hav no publlo buildings exoept police
stations.- The theater are packed In one
street, government buildings sr In com
pounds and temple in parks. Th houses
of th gentry ax la suburb.
Tb most Important feature In a Japanese
treet la th radian-hawker. Th radishes
are about two feet long and are as thick
as lean vegetable marrows. Next come th
poltc. who ax dressed like ship' stewards
with army chaplains' cape and cavalry
aabera. The Japanese policeman is always
tsklng notes. Perhaps he la beaten It he
goes horn at night without having tilled hla
notebook. His general victim Is a rlksha
boy, who holds his hat In front of him and
bow between every word. The constsbl
Is of high birth and low staturs; that doe
not matter since be understands Judltsu
But he never ha to us his supernatural
powers his authority, Ilka his whits cotton
gloves, la ample. ;Th populace grovel be
fore him. To foreigners witlrt of treaty
porta be used to be a nuisance, because
there was nothing so handy for filling up
his notebook as copies of passports and de
scriptions of th ancestry and early lit of
globe trotter.
. But whsr you ha a right to be without
taporla (that sosaa everywhere now) he
was a blessing, because he did not display
ti hulboriu axsliut lurtixners, and was
aching to turn It oa someone, and could
always be Invoked to treat you like a hou
on fire, and keep back the spectator while
you took a snapshot ir painted a large pic
ture. Time Is do mors to a Japanese than
to an Italia.
Th Foreigner n Shew ta Japnn,
Even In Toklo a foreigner draws a better
crowd than a conjurer, and a Jap likes to
be close when he Is looking. If It wss not for
the mldshlpmlte of police, In ten minutes
an artist would be part of a human ant
heap. Tou always know when you are out
side a theater or temple by the rows of ab
surd boot nd shoes and sandals and clogs.
The Japanese leaves his boots outside whsn
he goes Into anything even a police court.
He boasts that he does not make a street
of his house. His mark of respect Is to
tske off his boots, not his hat. As a race
the Japaneee do not wear hats.
The entrance to a temple Is marked by a
huge reed gsteway. The outside of a thea
ter la hung at the same angle as a bedroom
celling In a Queen Anne villa, with blood
curdling pictures about the play the most
realistic posters In the universe. The Jap
anese acorn comedies; they divide their
plays Into tragedies and histories the his
tories are sbout gods and heroes.
The Japanese are very chummy with
heaven. When we were in Japan a man
waa sent to prison tor daring to Insinuate
that the first smperor, Jlmmu-Tsnno, had
behaved unhistorlcally In being a nephew
of the aun. There was great Indignation
among foreigners, who did not know tbst.
being the prison editor, he only got his
salsty when he waa In prison. The prison
editor Is the nomlnsl chief of a Japsnese
newspaper. It would not do for the real
editor to be away from his post all th year
round.
It la a Land of Rain.
Rain Is a feature In Japan. Tou have to
seal up your glove In pickle bottles when
the rainy season begins and put a warm
ing pan In your wardrobe. The mildew is
very fine. The poorest Jspanese has his
mackintosh, which is msde of straw, and
costs three half-pence; be thatches himself
and wears a hat and umbrella combined
like the hat sunshades of Hong Kong. It
he W a shad too well off to be thatched he
may yet be useful to the artist for his mag
nificent Japanese umbrella of rich yellow
oiled end varnished paper. You can buy It
at a temple.
The Japanese keep their beautiful tem
plea better than the shoddy Chinese tem
ples, but tbey are quite a willing to turn
them to miscellaneous account If they are
poor. The Temple of the Moon at Kobe haa
Ita advertisement of a well known brand of
beer hung up on the notice board of bene
factors and the exquisite little temple of
Dal-nlrhl-do at Nlkko ia let for lodgings
But these glorious umbrellas, which could
be let aa market stalls In Paris, are disap
pearing, because It is a form of ewsgger In
Japan to carry a Sarah Gamp. If it is only
a Japanese imitation. If he Is fashionable
It must be adopted. Just a Japanese dude
thinks It necessary to spoil hi charming
native costume by wearing a dirty gray
bowler resting on bis ears, tbs only way a
Japaneae can keep a hat on. The coolie's
Idea Is better; when It is hot he takes his
hat off and ties a towel round his forehead
to keep the sweat from running Into hla
yes. It is now against th law to go
naked. Japaneae Interpret lawa very lit
erally.
No L'ae Keeping Law In Japnn.
I went Into a publlo bath hous one day
and saw both exe bathing stark naked.
"I thought It was agalnat the law for men
and women to bathe together, Mr. Mayeda."
"They are not bathing together." There
was a bamboo floating on the water, and the
women were all on one side of It. It Is no
uss keeping the law In Japan. If a police
man wishes to lock a man up he does not
wait tor him to b guilty. Japanese don't
keen th law. they obey the police. But
they don't think about having rights they
hadn't even the right to Uv thirty years
ago.
They have a craze for maasage, which 1
called shampooing. They don't go to the
massager the maseager comes to them
Their eecretlveness about their home life
Is not outraged, because massaging Is the
monopoly of the blind. The toot-toot ot
the massager' twin-penny whistle, and the
clop-clop ot his bamboo staff are the most
familiar sounds after dark. The blind man
walta till night to go his rounds, partly be
cause the Jap likes to take a bath In boil
ing water, and be shampooed at the end ot
hla day's work, because, as he ssgely ob
serves, no one can see In the dark.
Some Qiitr Japnnese Etlqnette,
Tou may see a Japaneae do almoat any
thing In the street except blow his nose.
It Is not good manners to be seen blowing
your nos, in Japan, but you may belch in
any company; it la bad manners not to
belch if you ar dining with a Japanese; It
looks as It the dinner was not good enough
for you to overeat yourself. When he la
having a night out he gets drunk before
dinner, and not after.
Toothpicks are only used with a hand
covering the mouth, and they should by
rights be Inscribed with a pun. Meals are
served a la Russe. The Japanese hsve not
only a language of flowers, but a language of
hair and fans. Amorous proposals are mado
with the fan, and a woman's hair tells a
man of the world whether ahe 1 unmarried.
or a wife, or a widow. It even tell htm If
tb widow Is willing to marry again. Large
ear ar a mark of beauty In Japan, and tat
people ar much admired. In th word ot
Qrlffis, "a rotund pbyslqu is considered a
good gift of nature." ,
It Is cheap to act up a laundry In Japan
you do your washing In the street without
soap, and you do your Ironing without Irons
by stretching the wrung-oot garment on
boards In tb tun. The Japanese even write
their letter In the street, making a table of
their left hand. Tbey write with a paint
bruah on a roll of wrapping paper, which is
about forty feet long, to (tart with, and
when they have written all they want the
wrong way from right to left, they tsar It
off, fold it up like a spill, and push It Into
an envelope about alx Inches long and two
Inches wlds, and write the address up and
down, beginning with th nam of th
eountry, th laat thing on th envelop being
tb person's name. England, Middlesex,
Bcuthgate, Osldge, Upton, Thomas, Sir, is
ths way thsy would addrsss the king's
friend.
They have no tables worth speaking ot,
th nearest approach being aa artlole about
two feet long, a toot wide and nine Inches
high, off which you ar occasionally allowed
to eat a meal. But It I mor Ilk a propped
up tsa tray.
It ta at th New Tear festival that you
is th Japan street in their glory
whsn th whole city Is decorated at the
cott ot about a shilling a bouse with grass
rcpes, and bamboo leaves and lobsters sni
Japsnese fi. Th streets ar full ot
musmee in their temple best, and dragon
dance and firemen doing acrobats' tricks

All Branches of Trade Tell Bradatreet
thnt Spring- Orders Look Well.
NEW TORK. Oct a.Bradstreet' to
morrow will say:
Conndenc in tne outlook for next year'
tuslnes Is a notable featur In th trad
situation.
The volume of orders booked for next
spring's delivery Is large for this season of
the yesr snd Is explained partly by the ex
ceptionally good business don on fall and
winter account: and the large crop yields
for tbe year, and also by the good posi
tion of the wnter wheat crop as cold
weather approaches. The absence of killing
frosts st the routh has allowed of the ma
turing of a considerable crop of cotton.
This has helped the trade situation there,
while sctlng as a brake upon the tendency
of the price of that staple to sdvance. The
demand for wheat has been active on mill
ing account, the Pacific coast being re
ported ouylng at northwestern markets.
Flour, though demand la reported less sat
isfactory. Is higher on the week. Cotton
Enods are - unchanged and quite steady,
ilstrlbutlon and the outlook In the dry
gcods trade generally Is very good. Ths
great rush of fall buying st the west Is
r.ow over, but Irders are good, althojgh
colder weather would benefit retail trails
materially. A festure Is the confidence
with which buyers take hrlrt of holiday
good and give orders for spring delivery.
Collections ars ss a rule good, but busi
ness Is not good at some southwestern
markets. Winter wheat is mostly up and
growing finely.
At tne east the retail trade needs cola
weather to stimulate demand.
Woolen goods, strengthened more by
higher cost of raw wool than by current
demand, are tending up. Yarns have al
ready advance!. Spring trade Indications
are promising. Lumber Is (telling freely,
despite the advanced stage of the season.
The movemert of anthracite coal la In
creasing and prices have fallen rather
faster than expected. Importations of
Kngllsh coal are large. Bituminous coat la
less active.
Eastern buyers appear to have been over
conservative and are now rushing in re
orders, hence Jobbers are In turn crowding
manufacturers. Spring business la in good
demand. Buying of leather In not very ac
tive at eastern markets, but a good volume
of shipments is gol'1 forward on orders.
western leatner maritets are quite active.
Hides and skins show no accumulation.
One Industry in which confidence In next
year'a business hss heretofore been marked
Shows signs of hesitation. That is iron
and steel, finished products of which, ap
parently because of high prices, nave
tended to accumulate.
Where price reduction haa occurred new
business has come in gratifying volume.
For the cruder forms, particularly pig Iron.
rails and bridge and structural material, no
loae of strength Is noted. The larger move
ment of anthracite coal has ss yet appar
ently affected eastern Iron furnaces but
little and the scarcity of coke holds down
production In the Pennsylvsnla valley. The
scarcity of fig Iron Is Illustrated by the fact
that sales for the middle of next year are
being made for 121 75. while Immediate sup-
pllea are scarce at 135. - The acceptance of
reduced wagea by tinpiate hands will en
able American mills to capture orders for
1.5l0.0t)0 boxes of so-called drawback plates.
Steel plates and bridge materials have sold
rrceiy mis ween at fittsDurg. nut cnicago
notes weakness and some hesitation.
Hardware Is active In nearly all markets
an advance of 25 nef cent over last yenr
being noted at Pittsburg. The fixing of
the coke price for next year at $3 per ton
by the leading interests Is regarded as a
satisfactory feature, but outside producers
will, it is claimed, asK more.
