ears Of $1,000 Coreans. These trophies
preserved in sake were carried back to
Japan by the victors as an offering to
Aideyoshi, their great General, who
planned the expedition, but was unable
to personally conduct IL.
The monument itself is called simply
Mimid Zuka, or ear monument.
After this brief period of glory came
that extraordinary period of seclusion
when allforeign ideas and models were
not only eschewed but penalties laid
upon those who advanced them or who
wished TO follow them. All vessels
built on foreign models were de-
stroyed by special command, and it
was forbidden to build any ships Of
larger size or different construction
from the junk as we know it to-day.
The foundation of the modern
japanese navy was begun just few
months before the fall of the Shotgun
ate and the restoration of the Milado
10 power, in 1869.
That very energetic British Minister,
Sir Harry Parkes, secured the services
of Commander Tracey, several officers
/ and a few seamen from the British
navy, who engaged to give the native
! officers and men instruction, but in a
few months the revolution took place
and all the arrangements were upset.
During the troubles that followed
some of the grain daimios were anx.
ious to have navies of their own, and
one of these, the Prince of Hizen, en-
| gagged Lieut.. Hawes OF the British
Royal Marines as instructor In gun
! merry to the seamen of his own class
Hawos may be fairly entitled to the

Prevention of Smoke.

The prevention of smoke from loco
motives by means of steam Jets has
proved an inadequate resort, and this
has led to the adoption of device
which thus far has received decided
commendation. The locomotives have
at the front or boiler-tube end of the
box an arch of brickworlx, thirty-one
inches wide, which serves to defect
the flames and otherwise improve the
efficiency of the boiler; but, in addi-
tion to this usual arrangement, there
are two other arches of frebricls
nearer the door and about twenty five
inches apart These arches are about
ten inches wide, and have been found
to economize coal as we'll as prevent
smoke. Only one of these smaller
arches is used when the firebox is very
short.
