Over in Chambers street there is a rather dingy-looking office on the, nd floor of an old-fashioned build- ! ing, which is too conservative to have an elevator in it. if you clinib the stairs and cast your eye upon one of the doors opening into the office in question you may see aj notice on it setting forth that within is | the Japanese Consulate. Most persons | pass it by without paying any attention, | for in the minds of a majority of New ! Yorkers the Japanese contingent im this city represents but little in point of numbers or in any other way. That is where the majority of New Yorkers | are in error. | Should you happen to be in this same ; Japanese Consulate on many occasions | | one thing will strike you very forcibly. | No ragged person ever comes into it, unless, indeed, it be one of the race of peripatetic beggars who visit every down-town office. No one comes into this consulate wanting to be assisted in getting away from this land of the free and home of the brave because it has failed to provide him with a living. Probably there is no other consulate in this city of which the same can be said. Probably, too, there is no class of people in our heterogeneous population who are quite as prosperous, comparatively speaking, as the Japanese who are lo- cated here. And yet but little is known of them, for they have a wonderful faculty of attending to their own busi- ness, and doing it in an unobtrusive way. For the last decade or so the number of Japanese in New York has been con- stantly increasing, and now the colony is a very good-sized one. Whatis more, it is made up of men of more than mod- erate means. Few races, not English speaking, have shown greater inclination to adopt American customs than have the Jap- anese who have located in this city. They dress and talk like Americans; they attend our theaters and mingle in our society, and in every way they seem to assimilate themselves with the condi- tions that surround them. Unlike the Chinese and other nationalities, they have not settled in any particular lo- cality, but are scattered throughout this city and Brooklyn. Pleasant and satisfactory neighbors they make, too. The New York Japanese have their club house, however. It is a good- sized dwelling on West Twenty-second street, between Sixth and Seventh ave- nues. Handsomely fitted up with both Japanese and American furnitnre it is, and as for treasures in bric-a-brac, this particular club house is way ahead of many swell American club houses. It goes without saying, almost, that there may be had such tea as can be had inno other club house or cafe in all New York. The club has a Japanese cook. Its library is well filled with Japan- ese books and its reading-room tables are freighted with Japanese newspa- pers. There are receptions on the an- niversaries of the birthday of the Japan- ese Emperor and on such other ocea- sions as may be decided upon. Nearly all the Japanese in this city belong to the club, and it is about as well man- aged an organization as there is in the city. It is stated that there is not a Japan- ese pauper in New York, and that, as a matter of fact, there are very few who do not possess at least moderate means. —N. Y. Mail and Express.

I.) jeweler’s, where in a show window it attracted atten- tion asa proper gift to bestow upon a friend. It was purchased, put in a pretty case with a chatelaine attached, and the whole was lost before the pur- chaser arrived home. Three days later it was advertised as found, and was again restored to the possession of its purchaser. It was bestowed upon the friend. Before many days, after the lady had returned from a drive, the watch was discovered to have drop- ped from its chatelaine. Three weeks later it was carried into a jeweler’s store for sale, was recognized and re- covered. Sitting on the rocks at Narragansett Pier one summer day, and wondering if it were yet late afternoon, the owner of the watch glanced down to see the time and discovered that the watch was again missing. It had been securely fastened, but the chatelaine had broken and let go the time-keeper. Going back to the hotel the lady was accosted by an elderly man with a question: “Have you lost any thing, miss?” “Yes, swatch.” ‘Here it is,” and uninjured the watch was returned to the owner. The chatelaine being stoutly repaired the watch was worn to Philadelphia. Of course it was lost there, but it was found by the chambermaid ia the hotel and mailed to the owner in Rhode Island by the proprietor of the house. Expostulation, proffered advice, which issaid to possess an unpleasant odor, and chidings failed to induce the owner to stop wearing the watch. Recently it hung, with numerous oth- er trinkets, suspended from the chate- laine worn from the girl’s side. She stood on a wharf looking down into the water. ‘How deep is fit down there?” was asked. “About fifteen feet” “When the tide is out?” “Yes.” Plunge went something into the green water below. ‘What was that, a fish?” asked abystander. But the girl knew better, and she innocently covered the chate- laine{with one hand and said: ‘I think it was a fish; I thought I saw him flop.” On her way home she said to her com- panion: ‘Say, you know that fish that flopped so? Um! Well, it was my chatelaine watch. It dropped in there kerspang and went to the botiom.” And when the man gotall through scolding the girl said: ‘It'll come back; it’s got to! I suppose a fish will swallow it and ;I shall buy that same fish of the peddier. Oh, it’s got tocome back!”"— BUTLER, MO pe Jewelers’ Weekly. bate judge, W I Price; presiding justice, Nicholas Krill; prosecuting attorney, J E Sturgis. Children Cry for Pitcher’s Castoria.

Castoria relieves teething troubles, cures constipation and flatulency. Castoria assimilates the food, regulates the stomach and bowels, giving healthy and natural sleep. Case toria is the Children’s Panacea—the Mother’s Friend. Castoria. “Castoria is an excellent medicine for chil- dren. Mothers have repeatedly told me of its good effect upon their children.” Dr. G. C. Osaoon, Lowell, Mass. “ Castoria is the best remedy for children of which I am acquainted. I hope the day is not far distant when mothers will consider the real interest of their children, and use Castoria in- stead of the various quack nostrums which are destroying their loved ones, by forcing opium, Castoria. “ Castoria is so well adapted to children that I recommend it as superior toany prescription known to me.” H. A, Ancusr, M. D., 111 So. Oxford St., Brooklyn, N. Y. “Our physicians in the children's depart- ment have spoken highly of their experi- ence in their outside practice with Castoria, and although we only have among our medical supplies what is known as regular products, yet we are free to confess that the morphine, soothing syrup and other hurtful | merits of Castoria has won us to look with agents down their throats, thereby sending | favor upon it.” them to premature ‘7 Unsrrep Hosrrrat axp Dispzwsany, Da.
