I can and da declare, as the accredited Ambassador of my Emperor at Washington, that the relations of the two Governments are as friendly as at any moment in history." Then Viscount Aski spoke of th expression so often hard now, "the mastery of the Pacif" The Paside a sail, is a big ocean. It is big enough for both of us. It is too big for both of us together.

There is Russia, England, Franca, and Germany have Pacific interests, So hag Holland, so have other great nations."

But the Ambassador realizes as well as any one else what is bahiad all this trouble.

he said, "I will come to that other question. You are right, of course. It is at the bottom of it all. We really ought not to talk about it; it is a point upon which every one is sensitive.

It is to be hoped that Viscount Aoki's words will be reprinted all over the United States, Probably this will be done, for during the last few days there has been a great awakening on the part of the sins and truly patriotic elements in the country to the peril which has boon created. The grave editorial articles in the World have had a great fact, and, though the Heralda infoenco is widespread, not only through i's OWA circulation but through important journals in the various cities which purchase its foreign news, it looks as though it has overshot the mack. Its news despatches and editorial utterances have been too bviously coloured and prejudiced,

ROCKEFELLER ON VERACITY.

AMUSING INTERVIEW,

Mr. Rodicafullar did not address his son's Bible class on July 7th as be sometimes does, but spent an odd hour or two in trying to do s reporter good at Chicago, where he has been summoned to give evidence about the allegad unfair and illegal methods of competition of the Standard Oil Company, of which he is president. The venerable Gasacier wa in a Fery grasion rond in the afternoon, and held a little symposium of newspaper reportera. He shook hands all round, asking each Prosman his name and what paper he represented.

In order to oceed, Mr. Rockefeller said, The reporters must always write bo truth. newspapers should be gospa of truth. One scribe wanted to know whetter it is still possible to make a few million dollars "on the square, and the oil king, speaking el ›wly and earnestly, said:

While Mr.Rockefeller chatted with the res portars several outsiders broke into the circle to have the privilege of shaking hands with the world's richest man." Saddenly the old gentleman, who surweced all the questions patiently and cheerfully for twenty minutes, turned upon his newspaper friends with a battery of queries regarding the inBuence of American journalism upon personal truthful- whether the newspaper basiness was con- Dess, In certain circumstances even the movements ducive to saving habits, and so forth.

Steam is also good conductor, and for this reason wet cattle hadding together in a storm are often killed. On the other hand, it is important to remember that while a solitary tree is a danger ous shelter, a wood is perfectly safe if one avoids a part where any tree towers high above its neighbours.

In cases where a peculiar ominous stillness batokens the presence of electricity of high tension, the same correspondant says, the worst thing to do is to run for shellor over an exposed surface; the movement may bring about the very disaster the wayfarer is intent on sscaping.

The tragic death of a golfer from lightning on a course near Glasgow, on June 29, has attracted much attention. Mr. Harvey was ju the ast of playing a mashie shot when the lightning struck him. He was swinging his elab, and it is believed that the lighting was Attracted by the steel bead of the club. The lightning passed through his body, making a hole, as if caused by a ballet, in his head. There was no other mark on his body. His olothes, however, were rent, and some of the compants of the garments were scattared as far as fifty yards away from the spot where he was struck. The soles and heels were torn from bis boots, and the works of his watch were shattered, though, straugsly enough, the gun- metal pase and the glass were undamaged.

The lightning made a hole in the ground of about six feet square and one foot deep, and across the cavity the lifeless body of the unfortunate man fell,

A correspondent of the Glasgow Herald sng- gests as the most probable explanation of the fatality that Mr. Harvey was within as ares of

Incidentally, Mr. Inokefellar said he had no malice against Judge Landis, who subpoe him to Chicago, and would willingly play bim à game of golf. Here the cil king's special train prepared to move off, and the great man whos sayings and doings take up more space in the American Press than those of anybody else in the world, more even than those of President Roosevelt, hurriedly said goodbye.
