PSfCHOLOGy
In No Way is Striking Differ
ence of Thoughts of “Funny
Men" Indicated Than in the
Two Countries Periodicals.
Tokio—ln no way in the striking
d|ffi;r«nce liPtwAPn Oriental and Oc
< icJr a iithl niflhoflH of thoughts butter In
difaterl than by th* i art Don« which
«(«• now appearing in Japanese and in
A ariran pcriodb als. Those who nre
Interested in paychology will find
thfM differences between American
and Japanese brain-pre>e'CH«en uh re
flected by the "funny men" a very In
tcresting study.
In the- first place*, the' Oriental neither
feel* pain himself nor pity for the
agonies of others am does the Aryan.
AtnerlcM.li cartoemH which have
reached Japan appear to indicate an
almost universal horror at the bar
barities e>f the* war, besides a kean
* vmpthy with the sufferers on both
sides in Europe.
Japanese cartoonists have vet to In
die ate- that that phase of the war has
appealed to thorn. They remember well
their own Kraut and devastating strug
gle with Russia, yet no cartoon that has
appeared In Japanese papers, and no
expression of opinion by any of tho
pape rs has considered in any way the
pitiful loss of life in Europe or has
Indicated that the horror of the war
is appreciated.
Humor in Battlefields.
Instead, the cartoonist* find in the
battle scenes a vast field for humor,
and a* Japanese humor usually turns
on something mechanical, the Tokfo
and Osaka cnmle papers since the be
ginning of the war have devoted their
pages very largely to picturing fan
tastic machines of war.
For Instance, a cartoonist shows a
grotesque suggestion for bringing down
Germany aviators flying over Tslng-
Tau and spying out the positions of
the Japanese troops. The Japanese
soldiers carry strapped to their hacks
life-sited pictures of comely Japanese
girls doing the weekly wash. The
German aviators, attracted by this
sight, come down to Investigate , and
are easily picked off by the Japanese
sharp-shooters.
"Why not." says Oak*. Puck, “send a
lot of attractive geishas to Tslng*Tau.
Put them out in full view of the Ger
man troops, and the latter will he so
attracted by thorn that they will drop
their weapons and fall an easy prey to
the Japanese."
Storming a German Trench.
An Hrrompenytng Illustration shows
s line of palm waving and graceful
geisha girls storming a German trench,
while the defenders are so stupefied by
their admiration for this bevv of beau
ties that swords and guns are dropping
ltom their lianda
The magaaine itakuten suggeata that
r..;>i ins bomba at Tatng-Tau proved
rather Ineffectual. It drawa pictures
t., suggest that the avtatora pour out
bottle* of anaathesla and when the
, itetnN t»as fallen asleep descend, tie
them iif. and lead them off to Japan
as prisoners of war.
Son e of the comic artists' efforts re
fi.it the strange Ideas of the East
about the sour and the ufler world. A
series of pictures show 11 couple of
Japanese soldiers preparing to retire
for Hie night, when they notice a lot
of ghosts of German soldiers ascend
ing to Heaven. They quickly throw
their tent over the ghosts, thereby
making an airship with which they eat!
over the bay and destroy all German
ships at anchor in the tray.
Eats Cartridges.
Another series pictures an ostrich
which ate all of a private's cartridges
while the latter was at dinner The
tu'l\ate has no meana of killing the os
trich and eo recovering his ammuni
tion. hut he gete a powerful magnet
which attracts the steel tipped bullets
In the stomach of ths ostrich and so
takes the bird to the camp.
Another Ingenious cartoonist thinks
Hint aeroplanes might be used to sweep
tlic land much as trswlers are used to
sweep the sea for mines A long net
is fastened ot two aeroplane*, ao that
it drags on the ground aa the «ero-
Planes fly, and gathers up tho enemy
to tie disposed of at leisure.
The peace suggestions advanced by
ti c United States have been almost
universally devtded by the Japanese
papers, many of them Insisting that
Hie reason for the suggestions Is that
Germany is being worsted end America
Would stop the war tn order to save
Germany.
Something to Gain.
It is to be noted that Janan Is ths
tml> combatant tn this war which Is
nftrmed in the Idea that she has anme
thlug to gain by the conflict. Both the
Miles and the Auetro-Gertuans, though
admitting at times that Victory would
u can such, are filled for the -most part
with the full realization of the enor
mous' sacrifices and tosses the war Is
entailing. Japan, however, with Great
Britain imylng the hills, la tn an en
viable position Of course If the Unit
ed States were tn Japan's place ahs
would not go to war because of the
number of her etttsens who would he
slaughtered with little of moral prtn
ctrle to Justify the slaughter. Out the
anting of a few thousand soldiers and
sailors docs not shock the Japanese
public. There was tittle Interest In
the war when It was declared, but

War Inspires Grotesque Japanese Cartoons
KAISER "BILL."
The Kaiser Is now the most cartooned man in Japan. Here Is a drawing by a Tokto artist showing the
German Emperor’* helmet turning into a skull from the effects of the conflict.
At the right Uncle Sam is standing In the background with his mouth watering as he observes Japan about
to enjoy the results of the Talng-Tau expedition. Japan is dining otf a small roast bird representing China.
An expression of terrible greed comes over the face of Uncle Sam when ho sees the conqueror pour a liberal
dose of sauce on roast China.
Below a Japanese cartoonist is taking n shot at President Wilson's overtures for peace. Uncle Sam is shak
ing the peace tree In an effort to cause some of the fruits of peace to fall before they are ripe None fall and
Uncle Sam's disgust with the result of his efforts have brought a frown to his somewhat dissipated face.
POOR DRUTIC
ARTISTS SUFFER
Unqualified For War, Music
ians and Other Artists Now
Doing Menial Occupations.
Paris.—Boor dramatic artists un
qualified for roles In the theatre of
war are among those who feel most
the rigors of martial law. One of the
baritones of the Opera Comlquc is
driving a taxicab. Others have been
driven to seek the nmat menial occu
pations. During the first days of the
war many of these artists were al
lowed to sing tn the streets and really
good artists were heard tn the courts
of apartment buildings, but on uccount
of the crowds they drew this means
of ekelng out an existence was for
bidden.
One familiar with the night life of
Tarts would hardly seek patriotic emo
tions nt that music hall to which Ihe
"Gan-can” gave a certain notoriety,
and yet this place unlit n>cently closed
was nightly the scene of Impressive in
cidents characteristic of the few dis
tractions tho city offers. All amuse
ment*. If they may tie so called, are
censored to the feeling of Ihe mo
ment.
Th* Marseillaise.
At Ihe music hall In question the
orchestra struck up The Marseillaise.
A tall Algerian rifleman rose from a
front seat. Hts right hand was lti a
sling and it seemed to embarrass him.
He hesitated an Instant and then his
left went up In an Impressive gesture
to hts red for. While he stood there
“at attention'' a little trooper tn the
blue-rcil trimmed Belgian cap clapped
his hands. Jumped to hts feet nnd sa
luted Tli* entire audience was up
then and the theatre resounded with
the inspiring strains of the hullle
hymn.
When the last notes cited away the
ceilings rung with applause, but above
the din cries wer® heard of “La Bra
bajtronno! las Brahonconne!" A big
tear rolled own tha cheek of the lit
tle Belgian trooper aa he listened to
Ills national anthem but neither he nor
the Algerian rifleman moved a muscle.
They stood there “at attention" until
the English and Russian hymn had
been played, until the lights faded and
ihe moving picture appeared on the
screen.
Movie* Stopped.
Moving pictures arc ruthlessly cut
out whenever they strike a lighter vein
then prescribed, nnd, for the sente
reason, have felled the feeble attempts
that have been made to bring th* cefe

In spite of the smell number of eve

Oil SIDE LABOR
Secretary Wilson, in Address to
Federation, Declares He’s
Proud of Securing Justice for
the Working Man.
Philadelphia.— " There can he no per*
m«nmt Industrial peace that is not
hasoil upon industrial justice," declared
Win. It. Wilson secretary of the federal
department of labov, today to thf dele-
KHtca of the American Federation of La
bor. Introduced to the convention by
I‘resident Gompers an "our Hill” and ad
dressing the deleKates as "ffilow trade
unionists" Secretary Wilson said he had
Mien criticised for certain statements ht
had made at the federation s convention
at Seattle last yeav and declared that
he reaffirmed what he said there and
he would not change one title of the
statement that every title to property is
a law created and a law protected title.
For \he Man Who Labor*.
TJie secretary said he had also been
accused of partisanship In conducting
his department. "If securing Justice to
those who earn theft* living by the sweat
of their face is partisanship" lie ex
claimed. "the count me a partisan on the
side of the man that labors."
Mr. Wilson in telling of the work of
his department said that the last year
and a half it had handled scores of
trade disputes and that all have been
settled with the exception of a Here
Marquette nnd the strikes at Falumet
and in Colorado. The department, he
added, tHkes the stand that the employ
er and the employe have mutual Interest
in creating a greater amount of produc
tion with a given amount of labor. They
only differ »s to the share that should
go to each and under the method it
should he produced.
As Mediator.
"The department of labor also has
been accused of partisanship,” Mr. Wil
son continued, "on the theory that in
acting as mediator in lahtW disputes it is
performing a judicial function. That is
not true. It performs diplomatic func
tions. There is no more reason why the
deportment of labor should be barred
from bundling labor disputes in a diplo
matic manner than there is for barring
the state department from handling in
temattoiuU disputes. *

GERMAN WINE DISTRICTS
SUFFER HEAVILY BY WAR
Output This Year in Alsace-
Lorraine Expected to be Far
Below Normal.
Berlin.—Germany's best wine-pro
ducing district, Alsace-Lorraine, has
suffered heavily by the war, and it is
claimed that tho output this year will
be far below normal. Alsace, espe
cially. has a poor crop, according to
reports. Not alone had the bad sea
sans of the last ten years caused a
reduction of the area of vineyards to
108,840 hectares, a decreg.se of 108 hec
tares (or about 300 acres) since 1903,
but the earlier months of the year
were very unfavorable for the devel
opment of the plant. The vines were
affected hy phylexera, which incessant
cold rains made worse, and then, when
hot weather finally came, the war
broke out. In Southern Alsace, where
the valleys and hillsides of the Vosges
are almost entirely given to vine
growing, many vineyards were cut
down In order to facilitate military
operations, while others were tram
pled down during battles.
The result of this has been that the
wine crops of Alsace will be approxi
mately one-third normal. Conditions
in Lorraine are better. Though some
of the vineyards around Metz were
cut down when the war began, the
crop generally is plentiful enough to
discount this. The quality, more
over, is said to equal that of 1904.
Good weather early in the season fov
ored a good average crop, and. unlike
those of Alsace and eastern France,
the wine growers of Lorraine were
able to give their vineyards all the
needed care.
HOW A GERMAN SPY
WAS APPREHENDED
Paris.—Last week a battalion of
French infantry reoccupied a village
where the Germans had stayed some
time. Everything was destroyed ex
cepting the church and the presbytery.
An old cure of venerable apnearanee
received the soldiers with open arms.
He told how the enemy had taken him
away as hostage and he had seen the
hard side of war. Finally they had
released him end h# had been able to
get back home.
The a*me evening the French offi
cers invited the eure to their table.
Before the first course was served tho
old man -rose slowly to say ''grace.”
One of the ofMcers seemed surprised
but the oire proceeded to murmur the
lxttin prayer. He whispered a word
to the commandant and the next in
stant the cure found himself surround
ed by four men with fixed bayonets.
The lieutenant then approached and
posed a few technical questions to the
old man. This lieutenant was himself
an abbe. The other seemed confused
and then appalled. He was unable to
reply. “That one." said the lieutenant,
has never been a priest' "
The man on being searched was
found to he a Gorman apy.

LIVELY DEBATE
It METHODISTS
North Georgia, Conference Re
jects Application For Ordina
tion Made By G. H. Turner.
Marietta-—Vigorous debate was in
dulged m at the session of the North
Georgia Conferencu Friday when the
name of George Hillyer Turner was
called with the request that he be or
dained elder. Thirty minutes' time was
taken in discussion, and the final vote
was against ordaining the young man.
The conference voted to accept the
invitation of the Rome itrst Metho
dist church to hold the next session
there. The invitation was extended
by all the' churches and organizations
of Rome.
C. W. Smith, of Atlanta, secretary
of the hoard of finance, reported that
$19,125" had been appropriated for the
46 superannuated preachers of North
Georgia and the 71 widows of preach
ers. The Rev. Henry F. Branham, of
Jasper, today asked to be retired from
the active ministry.
Bishop Collins Denny startled some
of the . conference pien by declaring
that next year many , would have to
live on less and suffer, due to the
crowding of the .ranks by the influx
of new members.
Bishop Warren A: Chandler, chan
cellor of the new Methodist univer
sity, addressed the conference regard
ing that institution.
The Rev. M. S Williams introduced
a resolution requesting that the
Revs. J. E. Dickev Fletcher Walton,
B. P. Allen. W. B. Dillard, J. H.
Eakes and W. D. Pierce be appointed

concludes a pastorate of four years
here.
HD DISEASES
ENTERING ENGLAND
Health Officers at Folkestone
Taking Unusual Precautions
Against Maladies From War
Zone. •
Folkstone. —English health officers
at Folkestone are taking unusual pre
caution to prevent the admission of
diseases into England from the war
zone. I’assengers arriving on the
Flushing, Dieppe, Boulogne and Ca
lais boats are examined with great
care.
Folkestone is now practically the
only commercial port open for pas
senger business from the continent so
the stream of refugees, tourtsts and
wounded soldiers all passes through
this port.
Health officers feel the pulse of
every passenger, examine Hie wrist
carefully, look' into the throat ajid
eyes and scrutinize the forehead for
evidences of smallpox. 11l order that
they may see the forehead of ladies
whose hair is fashionably dressed it
is frequently necessary to push the
hat and front hair hack. This action
on the part of physicians has fre
quently caused ladies to believe the
physicians were secret service men
who suspected they had messages
concealed, in their hair. .
Immigration officials and plain
clothes men examine the papers of
all passengers very carefully before
they enter England and usually en
gage them in conversation In an ef
fort to ascertain whether their French
nr English has a German accent.
Baggage is also examined thoroughly
by inspectors to make sure it con--
tains no German newspapers or let
ters from Berlin for persons in Eng
land.
Because of the improper use made
of American passports by Lieutenant
Lody of the German Naval Reserves
and'other spies apprehended .n Eng
land, France and Belgium, all bearers
of American passports are rigorously
cross questioned.
Flushing is the only open gateway
from the United States and England
to Germany which affords a direct
trip and most travelers to and from
Germany go by the Holland route as
it is much shorter than a trip by was
of Denmark, Norway and Sweden.
Consequently the Flushing J™**!
would be probably selected by secret
agents of the German government.
Scattered cases of scarlet fever and
smallpox have already made their ap
pearance among Belgian rofv.jgeoeFi in
Holland and Northern Belgium. Every
effort has been made to prevent the
spread of these diseases in the refuge
camps, but the Belgians are livng in
such crowded and unsanitary condi
tions that it is difficult to protect
them against contagion.
