JAPANESE CRUELTY.
Children Butchered, Villages Burned
and Women Violated.

Children Butchered, Villages Burned
and Women Violated.
Victoria, B. c., Aug. 17.-From far
Formosa, where for upwards of
year Japanese troops have been
vainly striving TO crush out the seeds
of pOst-bellum opposition to Japanese
innovations, comes a story which for
barbarOus cruelty and defiant viola
ton of all ethics of civilization has
fortunately few parallels in history,
even of the savage races of the world.
The terrible tale of rapine, murder
and wantOn cruelty reached here by
the steamer Empress of Japan, and
fully bears out the statement on the
situation in Formosa given publicity
by the Rev. DR.. Mackay on his return
to that island six months ago.
Other equally credible correspon-
dents are now the witnesses against
Japan, and the burden of their ar
raignment is that, seeing neither fame
nor profit to be gained in the subjuga-
ton of the FormOsans by the arts of
modern warfare, recognized as legiti-
mate by civilized nations, the Japan
csc troops sent to the island have en-
barked in a crusade of blood, EXTERN
mating the native population. In
this campaign there were no foreign
powers to make protest, no foreign
press reports be heralded to the world
which would bring upon Japan the
contempt of all enlightened people.
Says the Tainanfu representative of
the China Mail:
AS a result the policy of eXtermina-
ton has been zealously pursued from
the beginning of the campaign, and
what with the destruction of their
crops, the burning of their villages,
the Dissertation of the graves of their
loved ones, the violation of their
wives and daughters and the butch
cry of their innocent children, the
people are driven to the last expe-
dents of desperation"

structed no less than $4,000 miles, at
cost of FL 100000.
The country roads of the United
States do not compare favorably
with those Of any nation in Europe.
During the spring season in many
districts of the western states the
foads are practically impossible.
According to Prescott, the Incas'
roads were marvels of engineering.
Galleries were cut for miles through
the living rock, rivers were crossed by
means of bridges that swung suspend
ed in the air."

ROADS AND ROAD-MAKING.

Compiled for the Globe-Democrat.
The common measure of road dis
lance in Greece is the pike, three
quarters of an English yard, 1000
pixies being about $50 yards.
Russia, with all its vast expanse Of
territory, covering as it does an area
of 2,OO5,0O0 square miles, has but
$1,000 miles of highway.
India, a country half as big as the
United States, has $1,000 miles of
public highway, most of which is
kept in order by the government.
In 1874 a road club, for the i'm
provement of country roads in Eng
land, was established by society Of
persons interested in coaching.
Turnpike toll roads before the in
vention of railroads, were common in
this country, and even now in some
districts are still to be found.
In the Commonwealth of Massa-
chusetts the state builds the principal
roads, and the counties and towns
bear the cost of the branch roads.
The continent of Europe has $780,
600 miles of public highway, most
of which is kept in good condition by
special provincial or departmental
taxes.
Spain was we'll provided with
roads during the reign Of Charles ",
but allowed them to fall into disuse;
now there are but 1900 miles of
highway.
Germany has three kinds of miles;
the German short mile, $3.50 yards;
the German geographical mile, 1927
yards, and the German long mile, TO-
126 yards.
The East India company began, and
afterward the British government
continued, the construction of roads
in India, and now all parts of the pc
ninsula are well provided.
The Carthagginians were excellent
road builders. Portions Of the roads
leading from Carthage east and west
along the sea coast of Tunis and Fri
poll are still to be found.
The arshin, a common measure of
length on Turkish roads, is 80 inches.
A thousand arshins is considered the
unit of distance, equivalent to some
thing less than 1000 yards.
The Phoenicians were great road
builders. Traces of their roads in
Syria and Asia Minor, from the sea-
coast to the plateau of Armenia, are
to be found even at the present day.
The cost of maintaining a public
highway in England is roughly esti-
mated by the authorities at 800 pei
mile per annum; in France, S65. and
in Austria, $3.50 per mile per annum.
The construction of the Carthagin
ian roads differed so materially form
that of the Roman highways that it is
an easy matter for antiquarians tc
distinguish between the two. .
The making of highways in Eng
land and Wales steadfastly increased
from 1876, when Charles l. began tn,
making of roads, to the instruction OF
railroads in the first quarter of thi,
century, after which it declined.
As late as 1910, there were neithe
road nor coaches in any country dis
trict of Portugal. Gentlemen travel
ed on horseback and ladies in sedal
chairs, carried by men, or in mule lii
tiers.
The Italian government, since tn
union of all the states of Italy int
on kingdom, has recognized the i'm
portance to highways and has COZ

BURNING OF TIE CENTAUR.
Further Particulars OF the Fire and
the Trip TO HiiO.

The fire on the Centaur was
caused by large l4-gallon tank
of parailine situated near the
mizzenmast taking fire and
spreading il all directions. After
a desperate effort to extinguish
the flames and seeing no chance
of saving the vessel preparations
were made to leave. They were
then 800 miles from Hilo. Each
boat was provided with every
thing thought to be needed.
Eight days after leaving the YES
sci arrived at Hilo, good wind all
the way. The boats were kept
near to each other, being tied. One
was much faster than the other and
tying was very necessary or they
would have got separated. The
provisions were all put in one
boat, each boat was well loaded.
Had big supply of beef, butter,
soup, rockets, lanterns and life pre-
servers. When they left the bark
the mizzenmast had fallen over
the side. All the masts as well
as the vessel were iron. The
Centaur was 30 years old, made in
England. Captain Isvester had
commanded her IL years.
