  JAPAN
M lsslons and
Psnls, March l.-Ono of the most de-
lightfully amusing little books of the your
hasjust appeared, ss timely as it is in-
teresflng, entitled simply “Au Japan"
(in Japan.) by A. B. de Gusrville, u wrltcr
and traveler of wide experience.
“I learned," he ssys, “to love and sd-
mlrs the Japanese for their klndness,thelr
lzentleness, their politeness, their lntelli~
gcncc, always wide awake, their energy,
their perseverance, and their indomitable
courage."
Speaking uf the general ignorance the
msjorliy of people are In with regard to
the Japanese people, be ssys: “To com~
pare them with the Chinese is the creat-
est Insult that can be ofl'ererl them.
Another great error ls to speak of them
as n newly civilized race, who lived in a
semi-bsrbarous state some thirty yeurs
ago. Should such have been the case,
their rapid clvillzstion has been remark-
ublc. But Japanese civilization dates
back for centuries, und their history
is full of glorious deeds."
The must glorious “:lny," however, ln
the estimation of the Japanese them-
selves, De Guervllle declares, wss when
their troops marched slde by side with
the European troops, flying to the sid of
the foreign legstions at Pekin.
Resumlng the causes of the present
wsr, Guervllle attributes them as much to
the Japanese "amour propro" us to ser`ous
political reasons.
“When the wer between Ch ina and
Jspsn broke out every one said ‘Jspan`
will he eaten up.’ When the Chinese
were crushed the same knowing ones de-
clarerii ‘O lhet does not mean anything.
The Chinese are easy to vanquish. A few
European regiments will easily conquer
the Jspsnese.` Then when Japan vic-
torious obtsincd Formosa and n part of
Manchurls with Port Arthur from China,
Russia, France, and Germany interposed.
‘Permit us to soy,' they said, ‘that we
_cunuot nllow that. We forbid you tn
take Port Arthur end s portion of Mun-
churia. It is necessary for universal
peace that the Ohlnese remain the
masters.” The Japanese retired, and the
Russians took their plane. It is easy to
understand the fury of the Japanese. I
sm quite convinced that ut this epoch
they had but one dream-that was, ta
struagls ugslnst these whltc powers and
to vanquish them or die. '
Speaking of l‘oklo, the author insists
upon the American olimacter of the fore-
ign quarter--"American beer, hilllerd
room, barber, baths, electricity, telephone
all the comforts of modern civilization."
Describing a afternoon tea at the home
of the former umbnssudor to Viennu and
his wife, DcfGusrville writes! “Nothinll
more amusing could he imagined. Out.-
slde the house rows and rows of shoes.
Inside smartly dressed men and women,
the latest out ln (rock coats, tailor gowns,
men who would have been elegant in
the Rue ds le Pslx carrying their silk
huts ln their hands, but in stocking feet,
some of them even lured sllk socks. Any-
thing more ridiculous could not well be
imagined."

One of the most lucrative o:c.ipnti-ins
for guides in Japan is conducting visitors
to see “Mme Chrysanln.nium,“ ihe
herolns of Lotfs story. Needless to say,
she existed only in the writer-'s inmgiml-
tion, but B quaint little Japanese dell rc
cslves In hor place, und the guides make
from $20 to $100 out of each visit,
In compurlng the missionaries in J.»pm
and Chine, De Gucrvlllepositlvely declsrus
that the hatred the Chinese cherish for
the foreigners is ent‘rely due to the mlns~
lcnnrles.
“ Ons must not imagine that the Cnin-
ess detest foreigners beosusc they worship
another God than their own. Not at ull.
The Chinese are, on the contrary, exceed-
ingly tolerant in relllllous matters, or ut
least were so before the word Christian
meant claims, intervention, bombardment
lndemuitles, und loss of territory for
them.
“It ls hard no know it, but it must be
said. If the missionaries had been con-
tented to preach the gospel ln China and
to cars for the sick there would never have
been sny massacres. But as the Chinese
say, ‘We were trunguil. Arrive miss
ionary with his bible behind missionary
cannon. Devil of s stranger with opium.
Msndarlns say, nc opium. Ollicsrs cry,
yes, opium. Bombnrd cities, burn men,
women, children killed. Chinese say,
enough. Liter foreign agent come say:
“Buy guns, buy cannon, chase devils,"
Chinese buy dear; want to take territory
stolen. But guns no good; cannon loo
old. Dsvll foreigners kill Chinese, tske
more territory. Always like that."
This refers] particularly to the early
struggles with England. The book is full
of information sud has had an immense
success ln Paris.
