A SANITARY ROOM.

An "aseptic ward" of the Lon
don Temperance Hospital contains
novel features. 1t is IA by II feet
in area and 13 feet high, being in
tended for only one patient at
time The walls and ceiling are of
enameled glass with rounded
angles, and the floor of marble
MOSAIC, with angles also rounded.
A plate glass window, with outside
blind, forms three-ffths of the west
wall. The door is of ground glass,
and the frame, the only wood about
the ward, is of hard teak. No pipe
nor drain opens into the ward.
Great care has been taken with the
ventilating arrangements, and the
ward is cut off from the rest of the
hospital by ventilated lobby The
bed, chair, patients locker, etc. /,
are of metal. Everything in the
room can be washed IN hot water
without harm, and it is suggested
that future houses will give similar
pro ection against the enterance,
growth, or escape of harmful
germs.

TOSTOP COOUE OUTRAGES
ENGLAND AND AMERICA ARE TO
JOIN EFFORTS.
japanese Authorities Seem Unable to
Protect Foreign Blue Jackets from
Coolie Mobs in Seaport Towns.

1t is reported that the American
Government is taking steps to en-
sure the better preservation of law
and order among the coolie classes
in Japan an account Of the recent
outrages OH American bluejackets
in japan ports, says the Hongkong
Telegraph. Something of this sort
will have to be done. 1t is to be
feared that Japan will never again
be safe place for foreigners to live
in until after some sort of revival of
the course of treatment which was
found necessary in the early days
when the japanese authorities were
unable to control their own subjects
or guarantee the safety Of foreign
resid nts. We do not say it will be
necessary to have the treaty ports
of Japan patrolled by foreign troops,
but we do say that it will be neces-
sary for the foreign powers to insist
on the japanese authorities doing
their duty or taking the conse-
quences. In view of the approach
ing abolition of foreign jurisdiction
in the treaty ports, there is move
ment among foreign residents to Sc
cure some sort of protection for
themselves. Here, by tie way, is
a question for the Hongkong branch
of the NavyLeague to consider.
Surely one of the functions OF the
Navy League is to look after the
welfare of the bluejackets on whom
the Empire depends. Bluejackets
are constantly subjected to the rig
ours of mob law in Japan and it
would be in the interests of Japan
herself if the action now being TAX
en- by the United States Govern
ment could be backed up by the
British Government at the insliga-
ton of the Navy League. 1t has
frequently been pointed out that
the system of offering rewards for
the apprehension of deserters and
stragglers has gradually and newt
ably led to the practice of watching
shore leave men and in attempting
to make them overstay their leave.
This in itself would be nothing
more than a matter for the sailors
themselves to guard against under
ordinary circumstances, but it fire.
quently leads to fight between
stray bluejackets and Japanese
policemen aided by swarms of street
loafers and grog-shop ruffans. Let
the Navy League do something for
Jack.

The Parisians expect their Great
Exhibition Of 1900 to be visited by
not few European Sovereigns and
members of reigning families, and
have been exercised in their minds
as to where they can be lodged as
BELTS their rank. 1t is now prac-
tically decided that the Pavilion de
Flore at the Tuileries is to be set
aside for the purpose. At present
the building is occupied in part by
the Colonial Office and in part by
the Fine Arts Department; but
these are to be transferred else
where, and then the work of deco
rating the fine rooms thus freed
will be undertaken by the architect
of the Palace, M. Redon. AT pre-
sent the only permanent decorations
are Cabaneps fine painting THE
