! BASEBALL IN JAPAN :
JJ By B. W. FLEISHER
" in Collier's Weekly "
Yokohama, November 23
When Glhhs, tho local manager, with
n party nf friends nnd delegates from
various Japanese baseball teams, a
host (if rcKrtcrs from tho Jnpnnese
press ns well, and a brass' band, nil of
whom ho wns forced to entertain for
two day, went out to meet tlio belated
steamship China, carrying on hoard of
licr ,no "rsl All-American baseball
tenm to invndo Japan, tho first to
greet them was "Mlko" Klshcr. man-
nger.
Count Okuma and "Mike" Fisher.
After tho usual pi'cllmlnarles and n
general dubbing of tbo China an a lub,
notwithstanding her faithful sen Ires
of thlrty-thrco years, "Mike I'lsher
said: "Will tho Mikado be at the dock
to meet list"
(llbbs here tried to explain "When
tho fleet wns hero "
"Fleet!" echoed "Mike." Fleet!
Look hero. Was tho fleet one day be
hind schedule? Well we are two Did
tho licet arrive In a fog? Well, we're
here In a drizzle. Did they strike n
typhoon? Well, wo'vo had l)ecroniu
on board. Fleetl Tliu fleet's lslt, I
want you to understand, was only u
dress rehearsal for our reception
that's nil."
"Hut tho Kmperur " . commenced
Glhhs.
"Now, look here." continued "Mike"
Fisher. "Didn't I get n letter from
President Itoosowlt? Suro the Mlkn
do should linto been there. Never
mind now, make some other appoint
incnl for mo."
Tho first gnmo was with tho Wascda
I nlvcrslty. Count Okuma, tho bril
liant radicnl leader of Japan pel Imps
tho best known nnd most Influential
iran In tho country wns receiving at
tho tlmo In his beautiful adjoining
grounds, some flvo thousand guests, in
colebrntlnn of tho publication of the
tlrst volumes of "Tho Kncyclopcdln .In
ponlcn," nf which work ho Is editor In
thief, and hero tho Count expected nnd
awaited tho boys. Unfortunately, they
wcro driven directly to tho grounds.
though they nvallcd themselves of tho
hind Invitation after tho gnmo, and re
ceived a royal ovation.
Count Okuma, though disappointed
nt tho non-nrrlval of his exacted
guests nt tho apimlnted hour. Immed
iately prnceoded to tho bnll-grnunds
udjolnlng. It did not take "Mike'
Fisher long to Introduce himself, nnd,
ns a natural corollary, to stroll nrm In
nrm with tho famous veteran of thrco
scoru nnd ten, whom ho occasionally
addressed with n "Say. Count." For
innately Count Okuma did not grasp
tho trans-Pnclflc Idiom for. while ho Is
tho most progressive iiinn in aM Japan

movements, ho does not speak n word
