They are Messrs. . Sugi, Nagasaki, and Shibashi, of Tokio. . We are inclined to believe the reporter t drew on bis iinagiuation tot at least a part of the interview, for in his account he _ makes them say tiiey are graduates of Michigan University. Now, inaemuch as they never were graduated from tiie University, and as we do not even remember that they were ever connected with it, with the exception, perhaps, of Mr. Nagasaki; who studied here a short time, we . presume the reporter was a iilt Ie too rash. Several years ago quite a number of Japanese boys were sent here by their home governmcnt to be educated, but by a change in the government they were all recalled and we believe K. Saito and M. S. Toyama were the only ones who were graduated from the University.
