Yet Yokohama's climate is not always tropical, or evenmild. Winter also can assert itself here, and boats and buildingssometimes wear a robe of snow. Such a wintry temperaturemakes, of course, little difference in the comfort offoreigners; but, to the Japanese themselves, one might supposethe winter months would be a season of protractedmisery, since the vast majority of the natives have no fire intheir houses save that in a charcoal brazier; the partitions intheir dwellings are mere paper screens; and they themselves 35 rarely wear woolen garments, much less flannel ones. Yetthe people are hardy. Jinrikisha men, we were told, willrun about the snow-covered streets with only cotton sandalson their feet.

Four hundredyears agoTokio was afishing hamlet.Not until 1603did it becomethe militarycapital; andsince that timeit has been so frequently burned down and rebuilt, that itmay be compared to the human body, the particles of whichare said at certain intervals to be entirely renewed. In fact,statistics prove that, on an average, the city every thirty yearshas risen anew from its ashes. In 1895, at a single fire, fourthousand houses were destroyed.

In the smalltown of Shizuokawe saw themodest housewhere was stillresiding, like acountry gentleman, the last of the once powerful Shogunsof Japan; for a change has taken place in the Mikado'sempire. The Shoguns, who for centuries had been theactual sovereigns of the realm, and one of whom was infull power when the American fleet arrived in Yokohama,have now completely disappeared. Less than thirty yearsago, from thesecret precinctsof his palace inKioto, the lawfulruler, thepresent Mikado,was brought tolight, like onewho had beenimmured withina dungeon. In1872, for thefirst time in athousand years, a Japanese emperor freely appeared beforehis subjects. He was at that time a young man, twenty-two 54 years of age, andwas actuallytraveling by railfrom Yokohamato Tokio, thenceforthto makethat city hisabode and capital.On thatoccasion, we aretold, the loyaltyand enthusiasmof his subjects knew no bounds. As the train moved offwith the young emperor, restored to his ancestral power,there rang out on the air a melody which thrilled all hearts.It was the national anthem of Japan, the strains of whichwere first heard when savage tribes were hunting by theThames andRome was mistressof theworld.

One mightsuppose thatsuch a suddenrise in power,combined withthe amazingchanges in hisempire, wouldhave been ruinous to this young sovereign, for at the time ofthe restoration he was but sixteen years old. But he wasevidently the man for the occasion, and has since proved himselfan assiduous student and enlightened ruler. This man, 58 who, as a youth, knew almost nothing of the existence of suchforeign lands, now reads the literatures of England, France,and Germany.

A certain number of thesemen adhered to every Daimio,lived at his castle, fought his battles,and, not content with onesword, always carried two, as distinctivesymbols of their rank. Yetnow the old-time swordsman, if alive, has no doubt ceasedto shave his head, has laid aside his singular costume, andhas even put his swords away as relics of his youthful days,since no civilian is at present allowed to wear them. It issaid that this class of Japanese suffered most from the revolution,for they suddenly found their occupation completelygone. Untrained for work and ill-adapted to the suddenchange, their situation was at first deplorable. Hence it islittle short of marvelous that such a radical transformationcould have been effected in Japan without frequent insurrections.The sight of this great nation turning fromfeudalism to a constitutionalmonarchy, at the cost of rank, fame, wealth, and even livelihood,for tens of thousands of its foremost citizens, givesproof of a wide-spread, unselfish patriotism, perhaps unequaledin the world's history.

On our first day in Tokio, as we descended from the hillwhere we had gained a comprehensive view of the great city, 68 we paused to note, at the foot of a long stone staircase, asingular gateway built of granite. The tourist may wellobserve such structures closely, for one of the most commonarchitectural features of Japan is this peculiar style of portal,called a torii. In granite, wood, or bronze, such gatewaysusually mark the approach to a temple, shrine, or sacred statue.Nothing could be more simple. Two upright shafts are metand crossed by horizontal bars, the higher ones curving slightlyupward at the ends. This is in one sense all, and the beholderat first sees little in them to admire; but, after a time, the foreignerin Japan expects them as essential features of everylandscape, and welcomes them, like some sweet refrain,which, first heard in the overture, repeats itself in variousdisguises through the music of an opera.

One of theprincipal pleasure-resorts ofTokio is UenoPark. It is especially attractive in the month of April,when all its cherry-trees are radiant with blossoms. Theselovely flowers areusually pink incolor, and growin clusters severalinches wide.Poets have sungtheir praises herefor centuries.They are to Japanwhat rosesare to westernnations. Theirblooming-timeis one of the nationalfestivals.Some avenues inthe Mikado'scapital are linedwith these resplendenttrees,and are famous throughout 74 the countryfor their wealthof coloring.

In cultivating this flower, the Japanese have shown extraordinaryskill.Some of theirbushes are saidto bear as manyas four hundredperfect flowersat one time.Five or six varietiessometimesgrow upon asingle plant,and there areclaimed to be,in all, two hundredand sixty-nine in the Mikado's empire. Moreover, since it blossomslonger than most other flowers, it is associated with the ideaof longevity. One Japanese river, into whose limpid watersgreat showers of chrysanthemum petals fall, is thought toinsure to a good old age the lives of those who drink from itsinvigorating flood.

A moment later, the "lambrequins" were laid aside. Acouple of huge wrestlers squatted on the sand, like mammothbull-frogs ready for a jump. They had already rubbedtheir hands in the sand to make them gritty and tenacious.Beside them stood the umpire, holding in his hand a fan.With this he gave his signal to the wrestlers, much as amusical director leads his orchestra. His word is law, and hedecides whether the start is properly made and whether therules have beenobserved. Afew false springswere made atfirst, and thegreat crowd becameimpatient.At last, however,the wrestlersfairly caughteach other, andbegan the struggle.For severalminutesthey tugged andstrained, until itseemed that neither could possibly gain the advantage.Meantime the Japanese grew more and more excited, forall these wrestlers are well-known, and have their patrons andadmirers. One whom we saw is famous for having thrown 88 three rivals in succession.This is, of course, a proof ofgreat endurance; for by thetime the third encountercomes, the victor must necessarilybe much exhausted. e24fc04721
