Welcome aboard!
You would download and activate an "SFS" file. Please see the first post here: http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=61287 It presents two available versions of java for Puppy.
Alternately, you can download, unpack and install the most recent java run-time environment (JRE) from the Oracle Java site directly, here: http://javadl.sun.com/webapps/download/ ... leId=67386
If you need instructions for the tar-ball install, it's here : http://www.java.com/fr/download/help/linux_install.xml It's quite simple, really.
Best of luck!

Those sfs say puppy 4 and 5 ...but 4.21 uses sfs3 and 5 uses sfs 4 so may not work
This sfs is definately sfs 3 which will work on puppy 4.21

general query...does minecraft need opengl working as the op may not have it?

You can also grab and install a recent Java .pet package from here:
http://www.theasterisk.tk/packages/java/jre.html
Then you won't have to worry about the .sfs version.
(But you will have to make a larger save file if you're not running a full installation.)
Also note the following...

Remove the symlink "/usr/mozilla/plugins/libnpjp2.so"
Link "/usr/java/jre/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so" into "/usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/" (in the ROX Filer, drag and drop and select the "link (relative)" option)
Enable Java from the Seamonky menu (Edit -> Preferences -> Advanced)
