ENGLAND OF THE EAST.

New YoRK, Dec. 6.-The steamships
Energia and Strathlevon, from China
ana Japan. leaving Yokohama on Sep
tember Sd, via Shanghai and Foo Chow,
have arrived here. Captain Cormick OF
the Strathlevon and Captain Saw OF the
Energia said that they had not seen
much OF the fighting, but that in the
different ports where they had anchored
they had lots OF chances to observe the
feeling between the two countries.
"Why," eaid Cormick, you never

veloped.
They are very fond OF calling them
selves the England of the east One
Japanese gentlemen whom l met in
Yokohama wac talking to me about the
future OF japan and he got down a map
and pointed out to me the fact that
Japan was in the came relative position
TO Asia that England lie to Europe, and
then he said 'Japan's influence may be
felt throughout Asia, as England's ia
throughout Europe. Possibly we may

very confident that japan would some
day be the greatest nation on earth. He
was q passenger on my ship and was GO

one night while we were standing on
deck together ask him who would win
the war.
"why. japan OF course he an

He meant Australia, and l asked
him what England would be doing while
Japan took Australia.
"T don't think Japan cares what
England wguld do. he answered and /
had to run off and look hard at the com.
pass for fear OF laughing in his face.
''The Chinese are not saying as much
as they were the last time visited their
ports. They are divided into two fac
tions--one in favor of old Ii Hung
Chang, and the other very much op-
posed to him.

we'll az could be expected with the stuff

A Great Deal OF work 20 Give the

Ming q Ltctie surprise.
Louis XIV once remarked impatiently
in the hearing Of the Duke d'Antin, sup
erintendent Of the royal buildings. that
he hoped that sometime forest which
ne always disliked, because 1t obstructed
one of his favorite views, would be cut
down. Unknown to the king Duke dan
tin had the trunks OF all the trees in the
objectionable piece Of forest sawed
through near the ground in such a way
that they still stood, though a slight pull
would bring them down.
He removed every evidence of the
work, and fastened ropes to the tops Of
the trees, and concealed more than 1900
men In the forest to manage the ropes on
q signal from him. The duke knew on
what day the king would walk in the
wood, and planned his work accordingly.
The king took his accustomed promenade,
and. as usual. he expressed his senti-
ments about the hated forest. "Your
majesty, the forest shall be removed
whenever you like" said d'Antin. an
deed" said the king, "then wish that
il might be done at once" At that mo-
ment d'Antin blew shrill blast from
whistle, and, TO the utter amazement OF
the king and the royal party. the forest
fell as II by enchantment.

Tive Philadelphia Clubmen Ptned
Against Each Osher In .
Drinktng Match.
Two men sat down 10 q small table in q
Philadelphia club few evenings since for
. purpose. II was to decide Who posses
sed the greatest capacity for white wine.
Each had the reputation, which he studi-
ously sustained, OF being able to stand
more fermented juice OF the grape than
the other, and their criticisms Of each
other had become 50 unbesrable that in
terested persons determined by opposing
the boosters to end or mend their talk.
So grand match was arranged. On the
evening before the test, says the Press, a
friend OF the elder contestant, who was Q
practical joker, approached the wine
drinkers and, laying one hand confidngly
on his shoulder, spoke thus:
look here, old man, I speak as q
friend. You've got reputation to sus-
tain tomorrow evening and the other fel.
low hasn't. Now, as a friend. let me in
sist that you accept the bottles OF wine l.,
rs judge Of the contest, shall prepare.
They will be filled with water"
A sad look Of hopeless despair passed
over his face. To drinx water, even
though he won, was inglorious; but to
drink wine and perchance lose, that was
infinitly better. This decision resulted
In an argument that lasted half an hour,
and the wine drinker was then convinced.
On the eventful night the two men sat
down to the table, six bottles before them.
The younger man was q1ick to the fray,
the elder despaired when he tasted the
pure unadulterated water. But he mas
tered his tastes and drank with conquer
ing smile. When the sixth cork was
drawn each contestant stared 1t each
other. This was wonderfully conducive
to cheerful feeling, and so they promptly
glared at one another. That made them
rampantly joyous. Down came one pom
derous fist on the table, and its owner, the
elder man, roared out; Fool, how can
you win. I'm drinking water"
A wan, sweet smile passed over the
face Of the younger man, as he family
murmured, $50 am l."
