JAPANESE STRATEGY.
Getting Rations Into Korea Before In
vading That Country.
When the celebrated Japanese soldier
| Hldeyo?hl was making preparations
: for his Invasion of Korea he was ap
i proached one day b.v the veteran Asana
Xagamasa, who engaged him in the
j following colloquy. It is recorded In
I Walter Dealing's "New Life of Toy?
j tomi Hldeywhi:"
Nagamasa? What commlsslarint ar
rangements had better be made?
Illdeyoshl? Well, you had better get
ready 3.000.000 koku of rice.
N.? What is to t>o done with the rice
: after It Is ready?
H.? Use every transport that is to be
had and send it over to Fusun.
N.? After landing it, how are we to
protect it?

H.? Don't protect It; let ft fnre As It
will.
N.? If we do Unit the Koreans will
capture It nil.
H.? Well. Isn't that what we want?
N.? But If we lose our provisions we
Bhall be In trouble.
B.? It Is n case of 3.000.000 kolru. Such
a quantity of rice Is not to be carried
off In a hurry, nor can It be consumed
In a short time.
N.? But the Koreans will carry It In- '
land.
II.? If they do that, nothing could
Bult us better. To get the euemy to do
your transport service for you for tho
amount of rice thnt cnn be consumed
on tbe road Is good enough. By adopt- 1
Ing this plan our troops will always j
find provisions waiting for them as ,
they advance.
What Hldeyoshl predicted actually
did take place, and rice that had been ]
carried off by the Koreans was repeat- 1
edly recaptured by the Japanese.
Why He Is a Bachelor.
"I've been very close to matrimony
several times." remarked a conllrmed
old bachelor at au uptown club, "and
every time my Inclination has beon
sidetracked by the same sort of laci
deut? the discovery of a trait which
appears to be practically universal
among the fair sex."
"Drink ?" asked the cynic.
"No; the confidence game. Every
woman I ever knew Intimately was
sure to relate to me eventually some
thing In 'strictest confidence,' which
later it appeared had been told to her
in 'strictest con tide nee.' I won't tie
up with a womnn who does that."
"Guess you'll die single, all right,"
said the cynic.
"I'm sure of it," said the bachelor.?
