Again in the third heat of the 2:10 trotting race, Geers appeared to win by a head with St, Frisco. This time the decision was in favor of Mirthful, driven by Murphy. When he won the next heat he was cheered and when he finally won the race the crowd became enthusiastic, The second heat of this race was the fastest trotted during the meet- ing, while three of the five heats were faster than 2:08. St. Frisco finisned first or second in every heat and in the end outlasted all competitors. The race won by Russell Boy was by far the best and fastest pacing race of the meeting.

Boston, Sept. 4.—Johnny Evers, captain of the Boston Braves was yes- of the National league for five days because of his dispute with Umpire “Lord” Bryon at Boston Thursday. First baseman Schmidt was fined $§100 for his part in the affair, and a $50 fine was imposed on Fitzpatrick. Evers started the trouble by protest- ing, in his usual manner, a strike that was called on Snodgrass and was ban- ished from the game. The captain of the Braves has come under the ban of the league on a namber of occasions this season. President Tener started by fining him and the last time that Evers caused trouble on the ball field, suspended him for three days. At that time he said he would increase the penalty it there was another offense to five days —the one now imposed—and if there was another outbreak it would be ten days, with indefinite suspension Yol- lowing still another offense. President Gaffney also has punished Evers for the last occurance. He has fined him his salary for the time he is out of the game. Evers has had trouble throughout the circuit this season both with um- pires and spectators. On the last western trip he became involved in a fray with Fred Clarke at Pittsburg, but was not punished because the umpires did not see the fight which cccurred near the players’ bench. In damage suit by one 6f the spectators whom he berated. Not long ago Evers decidec he was being hounded by those who disliked him and threat- ened tc quit baseball for the season, but within a day or two reconsidered his action.

Tokio, August 2.—Fires bursting high from the peak of sacred Mount Fuji last night were not volcanic, as some people who had not read the newspapers suppased, but were mere to the world of Japan that the great accession cere- monies of Emperor Yoshihito were approaching. The glare of the flames lightened the heavens for a hundred miles and as they soared upward with their message thousand—millions of the faithful were bowed in prayer be- fore their Shinto shrines beseeching happiness far their ruler—content, perfection and greatness for their country. Religious Rite. The rite of Fuji’'s summit ranged by Shinto priests and was at- tended by a large company. It was a religious function which had na real connection with the official coro- nation program but was held to in- spire the people with the significance and grandeur of the coming cere- mony. After the prayers for the glory of the reign of the Emperor the sacred sake wine was passed from lip to lip end offered to the god of the Shinto hrine. About 1700 persons, it is announced, Vill attend the chief accession cere- monies at Kyoto in November. These Will include the representatives of the monarchs and presidents of the treaty powers, princes and princesses of the blood, officials of the Shinnin rank, was ar- the presidents, vice-presidents and members of the Diet, princes represen- tatives of various peers, as well as a representative of the Shinto and Budd- hist religions. No Christians Present. The fact that no representative of Christianity has been invited to the ceremonies has caused a controversy. Dr. Ichiki, Minister of Education, ex- plained that no Christians in Japan are accorded court rank, while the Buddhists and Shintoists are accord- ed the rank known as Chaokunin. Not in the sense of attaching more import- ance to the other religions, suggests Dr. Ichiki, but simply because Chris- tianity in Japan has no representative with an official rank, the imperial household commission probably found it impasible to include a Christian delegate in the list of those who will attend the forthcoming coronation. Japanese Christians say they are not satisfied with this explanation- They think that the Buddhist and the Shinto representatives have been in- vited not primarily because they hold the rank Chokunin, but be- cause they represent the Buddhist and Shinto religious organizations. The Christians do not claim that they ought to have a representation in the ceremony, but they argue that when Christlanity has been given freedom of preaching in Japan it will appear strange to forelgn na- tions if they #c not given an equal privilege with other religious bodies. A Japanese pastor of one of ths leading Christian churches conferred with Count Okuma about the ques- tion, and the Premier promised to make an investigation. Army of Workers. Preparations for the accession are occupying an army of workers. All over the country devout men and women are solemnly and religiously doing their share in the task of get- ting ready for the great ceremony, At Kumogabatamura, near Kyoto, woodmen cut the trees that will fur- nish the timbers for one of the halls of the coronation rites. This is the hall in which the ceremony of the dedication of the sacred rice to the imperial ancestors’ spirit will be held. The trees were cut down ac- cording to the ancient Shinto rites which make this task of felling tim- bers something of ceremony in itself. Sacrifice to Gods, First the woodmen were purified by Schino priests. The first tree was then felled with all due solemnity; it was a crytomeria. . The branches were iopped off and these together with stump were burned as an offering to the god of the wood. Fifteen carts, attended by leading villagers, dressed in the old fashioned ccstume of the woodmen and carry- ing fans of the rising sun, will be used to bring the timbers to the site for the hall. The villagers will draw and push these carts themselves, ac- companying their labors by the sing- ing of the ancient Kiyari song. One hundred timbers will be brought Lol Yyoto in this manner. Some of the rice offered to the spirits of the imperial ancestors must come from the Yuki rice fleld, near Nagoya. And while this offering ‘s made, it will be part of the ceremon- les to have sung some of the rustic idyls of the people of the village where the Yuki rice fleld is located. To prepare for this feature of the ceremony a court musician is now spending his time in the villages col- lecting and arranging the rustic mel- odies of farm life.
