WHIRL' OF ENTERTAINMENTS Japanese in ‘Particular Were the Re cipients and Givers of Lavish Func tions—Edonomic Effects of Result Arrived At Being Felt. By EDWARD B. CLARK Washington.—The last of the inter national conferees is on his way howe ward. He probably is carrying witl him a burden of mixed thoughts, bu it is certain that he has In the bundle only one thought concerning Capita ¢ity hospitality and Awerican hospi tality generally. Most of the chief délegates to the conference ‘could not find as muck time as the members “of- thelr reti- nues in which to engage in purely so- cinl functions, but they “went out’ as much as they could and also they entertained in their own behalf as much as they could. The juniors of the delegations either were entertain- ing or being entertained almost daily. but of course the hours of entertain- ment were so fixed as not to interferc with the routine work of the days. Nobody knows, of course, just what r feélings of the Jupanese are g the outcome of the confer. They have expressed almost en- ence. tire satisfaction with what has beer done, but diplomacy ever is reticent and to a certain extent secretive Surface indications are not alwayt safe guides for judgment concerning the inner thoughts. This is true of the diplomats of afl countries, but i is snid to be particularly true of the orientals. Surely Had a Good Time, One thing s certain about the Jap anese. They had a good time soclally while they were here, or if they dic not, they know Low to counterfeit joy better than any of the other people: of the earth. These Japanese folk did more enter talning than the representatives of any other nation, ‘although all of the | foreign representatives here did mucl in the social field. The Japanese werc particularly careful to stress the faci that they were grateful for Americat hospitality. Alone of all the delega tions they gave several farewell en tertainments, at cach of -which they | thanked their hosts on other occasion: for making their paths pleasant Ir ‘Washiagton. Sometimes one wonders if the Amer fcan people a ‘people are tactful He has his doubts occasionally wher certain things occur. Recently it Washington there was an afternoot affair at which was present one of the chiet_foreign delegates to thé confer ence, ‘one of the hmanmathspring: of the whole affair. ~ An' Americar woman, meeting him for the first thne and inténding of course to be' Jocose safd that <heé wished that diplomats #1g to secure some means to offset the troubles. . French Delegates See Yorktown. Before the members of the French | delegation to the international canfer- ence left Washington several of the chief officials, accompanied by many of their subordinates, took. & trip down into Virginia to visit Yorktown, where 140 years'digo the French under iochambeau, with_thetr .compatriot vafayette's aid, helped Washington to detent ‘thie British and bring a virtual c¢lose to the Revolutionary war. The French recently had somethipg of n controversy with the Germans— if the great war can be spoken &f in so light a vein. The French once had a controversy with the Germans over the celébration at Yorktown. In'the ar 1881 the Ametican government the one-hundredth anoiversary of the surrender of Cornwallis to Washing- ton, and invited representatives of the French nation to be present. They aceepted with alacrity. Just at this time Horatio Seymour of New Y uggested that German representatives he fnvited to the cele Dbration because Von Steuben, n Prus- sian, had helped the Americans in the Revolutionary war. Uncle Sain asked the Germans to be represented, and they were. An unpleasant controversy arose between the German visitors and the French visitors, and it took a lot of ‘tact to sett! , but since then the big war has happened and probably the recollection of the little affair of 1881 has been wiped out. Should Be - Preserved. Yorktown has been spoken of as a tottering village. It is more than a hit decrepit with age, but its years have been honorable and in this lie the, hope and belief that the Amerlcan people will exert themselves to save the historic places in the village from the decay that more than threatens. Here and there In Yorktown are substantial old dwellings of the colo- nial period. They will outlast the build- ings of a later day, for they were founded on the rock of honest con- struction.” One old place has towering chim- neys that, with the rest of the house, have a time-weary look, but dissolu- tion is not in sight because the bulld- ers builded well. This is the Thorn: Nelson house, and for a time Corn- wallis made it his headquarters, a fact which came to the knowledge of the owner, who was with Washington in the ranks of the beselgers. { Colonel Nelson went to the com mander-in-chief and told him that the British general was in Ins house, and that If guns could be brought to hear with the residence ms a mark’ Corn- wallis might be crushed under the.= falling walis it there was a good heavy-gun marksman in the Americun ¥ army. They tell you today in York-. i town that Colonel Nelson tcld h chief that he would sacrifice fift) homesteads if he owned them to put Cornwallis on the hospital list. The American gunners fired away at the walls of the Nelson bome and hit them three or four times. Corn- wallls was there, but it did not take him long to learn the drift of the shooting, and he too': refuge In a cave under a parapet of brickwork and sand, and there he Juy safely.
