JAPAN BUYS OUR COTTON.
The Orient1Is Want to he the Grea
manufacturers of the East.

Some idea of the rapid progress Japan is
making toward the object of her ambition
to become the manufacturing center Of the
far east-is conveyed by a report received
at the State Department from United
States Consul General McIvor at Kanagowa
on the present condition of the cotton
spinning industry in Japan. Using figures
prepared for publication by the Japanese
minister of agriculture, the report shows
that all Of the coarse threads formerly i'm
ported in great quantity from England and
India are being displaced by home-produced
Japanese threads. The finer qualities of
English thread are still required, as the
Japanese production of these grades is still
very limited. Before the end of the pres
ent year there will be a million spindles in
operation in Japan. The imports of raw
cotton from the United States have in
creased from S,2lS. 1856 pounds in 1893 to H.
39,S2O last year, while the imports of cot
ton from China and India increased in
about the same proportion.

That Nation IL Now Orc Of the Richest
Iron Yielding Countries.

The japanese are nvesi get ting the
extent of the iron Lee iiv strata of their
country with encouraging results. The
best niire thus far discovered is that of
Kamaishi in Iwate prefecture, which,
according 10 Professor Moro and another
expert, is capable of yielding about 49,
600. 600 tors. TIE Senrin mine, also in
the sane prefecture. is supposed to con-
tain half million tons, and ti., Akai-
wa mine in Niigata prefecture is put
down for 1850. 900 tons Many other
mines have also been discovered in
Iwaki, Shinano, Kyushu and so forth
In short. Japan may be considered -
one of the richest iron yielding coun-
tries in the world. Moreover, the ore
found there is not inferior in quality to
the imported metal.
Already the Osaka arsenal has substi-
tuted homemade cast iron for imported
The arsenal has further found that Jap
anese iron can be made into steel of
quality so excellent that il is expected
by and by to excel the imported article.
The results of experiments conducted at
the Yokosuka dockyard confirm those
obtained in the arsenal By substituting
Japanese iron for imported there would
be great saving of expense even in the
matter of transportation. f the freight
of cast iron represents 10 per cent of its
cost, that of wrought iron 81 per cent,
and that of steel about 40 per cent.

Bird Hunters In Ceylon.

A more disagreeable object than a
scorpion of Ceylon it would be difficult
to imagine. Although, as rule, it does
not measure more than seven inches in
length, there is a species found i'll the
woods that are longer than foot. They
crawl out OF some dried wood and tax
ing up their position on convenient
rock or stone, looking, as they hold
their great jointed sting curved over
their backs and their claws held aloft
the very picture of aggressive warfare.
Here they stretch themselves in the
broiling sun and await their prey.
These are the small, beautiful honey
birds that dart from flower TO flower
and take the place of the humming birds
of the east.
AS one approaches the scorpion seems
TO shrink into the stone until 1t becomes
almost imperceptible. Suddenly the
great insect will raise its claws and
dart at its beautiful victim, which in q
moment is destroyed. -Strand Maya
