Women's Cause in Japan.
Obviously the Japanese do not agree with Tennyson that "the woman's cause is man's," for the Tokyo correspondent of the Nagasaki Press announces that there will appear shortly a weekly paper entitled the Fujo Shimbun (woman's paper), under the auspices of well-known men and women.
The prospectus just issued says that the paper will be devoted to the promotion of interests affecting the fair sex in Japan, and will also conduct warfare against social abuses, to which no quarter will be given. Editor, reporters and other members of the staff will consist of women.
