the Spaniards. They fought well for
Asiatics and We're helped by European
officers and gunners.
The battle of the Yalu was a good
fight on both sides. Admiral Ito took
no glory to himself or his feet for that
victory. When asked to what he at
tributed his great success, he said,
Largely to Providence" He consd-
cred the escape of one Of his ships from

that speed was what enabled his fleet
to keep its wonderful battle formation.
The Chinese ships were slow and could
not keep in order of battle to support
one another. AS soon as the Japs
broke the Chinese line and the Celes-
tial ship commanders had to act indie
pendently the fight went against them.
The Chinese tronclads were well han

Japs swept their crews from the guns
with awful slaughter.
When Admiral Ito was asked why he
did not follow the defeated Chinese
ships and capture or destroy them all,
he said, 81 was anxious to continue
the fight, but l would not chance

long naval voyages, but for battle near

that the Chinese were really giving up

part of the Korean peninsula. At
Ping-Yang, once capital of Korea,
the Chinese had strong position, as
the city stands on slope and is sur
rounded by wall. The Japs had to
cross the T;.itong, and there was but
one bridge fit to carry troops. Between
the wall ana the river the slope was
cut up with ricefields and very unconl-
Portable for soldiers to traverse under
fire. The Japs went at the wall in the
same spirit as they did at the gate at
Tien-tsin lust July. The Eleventh reg
iment assaulted one of the strongest
points in the wall. Two ramparts at
last fell, but the third seemed impreg-
nable. Every man of the forward COM
pany was killed. Excited by the stub
bornness of the Chinese on the wall,
Captain Hayashi, leading the second
company in line, rushed ahead of his
men, shouting to them to take the ram
part or die in the attempt He leaped
to the crest, but went down, the target
for score of bullets. With life enough
to partly rise he waved his sword to
the advancing soldiers and, mastering
all his strength for one cry, called out
"Charge" then fell back dead. Three
soldiers sprang upon the rampant to
rescue the body of the brave Hayashi,
but were instantly shot dead. The
company beat a temporary retreat, but
soon rallied to the charge and carried
the rampant, where they found the
captains body minus the head. For
this act they took speedy revenge.
In this initial battle Of the war the
Japs captured all the fighting blood Of
a Chinese army of $4,000 men. Many
Celestials ran away. Four generals
We're taken, and all was done at

Japanese attack upon Port Arthur was
the deciding stroke of the war and one
of unsurpassed boldness. On the neck
of the peninsula the Chinese had erect
ed the strongest batteries military sci
ence could plan. The works, construct
ed by Germans, were massive and fully
equipped with up to date devices for
efficiency. On the ramparts were 40

one which European observers thought
they would hold indefinitely against all

eyes Of western spectators the little

ind side. The japanese soldiery have
leld their own in China side by side
with the western troops and, according
to some accounts, have been more
martial and at the same time more
humane than certain of the European
forces.
There seems to be disposition on
the part of the little brown men Of the
Island Kingdom to think kindly of the
Chinese and to look upon the war of
1894-5 as necessary evil. They had
to give China lesson, and, having fin
ished the job, China swallowing the
pill with good grace, they are willing
to let bygones be bygones. This is
noble way to look at it, and the Japs
are really not growing. They take
serious view of the Chinese question
and of Russia's sullen aggressiveness.
1t is not lesson they are to give Rus
STA; they are fighting for existence.
Japan has been likened to England
because she is an ambitious and pro-
gressive commercial island kingdom.
A better parallel perhaps is Germany,
for, as Europe must reckon with the
land of doughty kaisers, so Asia and
all who seek spheres of influence there
must reckon with Japan. She is the
pivot upon which the movements Of
other nations must turn.
Japan's naval and military establish
ments are all that money, energy and
brains can make them. The army has
been improving and increasing since
the war with China, and her navy has
developed until she counts hundred
war vessels and has the strongest fleet
in the east, with the exception Of Eng
land. The war with China showed real
military capacity on the part Of the
Japs-good generalship and good fight
ing qualities. General Grant once said
that 10000 Japanese could march from
one end Of China to the other. There
is no reason for thinking so except that
the Japs are superior race. China has
had war and developed generals. But

Crane Secured PIumb's Hat

Several Senators who are still in the
,ity met in one Of the comr,ittee-rooms
at the capitol this morning. The con-
versation in some way drifted to Will
lam H. Crane and his Interpretation
of the role of "The Senator" 1t brought
out a story of how Crane put the finish
ing touches upon his great character
study. ---
!" rs you we'll know" said one of the
group, "Crane took his character almost
directly from Senator Plumb of Kansas.
Crane had just started out with "The
Senator" and had opened in Washing

and liked it immensely But I thought

silk hat. which was not at ali according
to my thinking. in keeping with his imi-
tation of Plumb, who always wore the
characteristic broad-brimn1ed felt hat Of
the southerner. One evening, when
Crane. Ingalls,, Plumb and myself hap
pened to be dining together, / remarked
to Crane about the matter of the high
hat.
"You really ought not to wear it, for
it is not in keeping with the character"
said I. You ought to wear one like
Plumb's:"
"Crane did not say mitch in answer,
but when we arose from the table he
reached out for Plumb's hat, and calmly
put it on. Leaving his own hat for

COUNTESS Won WALoERSEE.
An American Woman Who is the Aunt OF
the German Empress.


The Womdn's Home Companion con-
tains an article by Mabel Percy Haskell
of how the daughter of a New York
grocer, by her good sense and tact, has
risen to almost royal position in the
German Empire:
"There are many American women
who have become noblewomen, but there
is only one who has ever became aunt
to an empress-the Countess Won Wald-
ersee; and she not only holds that ex-
cellent position. but is also distinguished
as being the cnly American woman who
ever became a princess in her own right
quite aside from any title acquired by
marriage. The Countess is really the
Princess of Noer. this title having been
conferred upon her by the Emperor Of
Austria many years ago.
Few people in this country know
the romantic and remarkable life-story
of this American princess, who has
never returned to her native land since
she left it forty-hve years ago, then a
young cir, in the glory of her beauty
and first youth. She has been 80 closely
associated with the exclusive life of the
high nobility OF Berlin that Americans
travelling or at home, could not know
of the American woman who is ac-
knowledgcd to be almost a power behind
the German throne.
This remarkable woran. although the
daughter of a New York grocer, mar
ricd successively a royal parsonage and
g scion of one of the most exclusive
families of the proud German nobility.
She frankly used her influence to bring
about the marriage of the present Ger
man Emperor and her niece. and has
proven herself to be most remarkable
matchmaker. Her husband holds one
of the highest positions at court because
of her influence, and he was sent to
China at her request Thus she is really
one of the most brilliant and interesting
women of the century, but the fact that
she lives in Germany makes it impos-
sible for the English-speaking world to
have a true knowledge of her power and
achievements; for, although woman's
influence NAV be very great and far
reaching in Germany, her personality is
always hidden. the new woman and
'women's rights being utterly unknown
quantities in the Kaiser's domain"

"You must never both get cross at

CANARY ISLAND WHISTLE TALK.
Aborigines Have a Language Learned
From the Famous Birds.

Unique in one respect are the abor1g-
ines of the Canary Islands as described
by an anthrcpologiSt who has been study
ing them. He finds that instead OF using
words and syllables for the purpose or
conversing with one another they are
wont to whistle like birds, neigh like
horses and below like bulls. This pan
thropologist is NJ. O'Shea, and the story
of his discovery has pust appeared IN the
Bulletin OF the "Biarritz Association.
1t was from these islands that the an
ceStors of the canary birds originally
came. 1t is the notes of these BIRDS
which the natives of the islands. who are
known as Gomeros. cleverly initiate
when they desire to converse In rams
and other cities criminals have regular
code Of signals in which wh!stling plays
It's part and which is used tor the pur-
pose of misleading the police. The Com
eros, however, have developed the art
of whistling to the dignity OF regular
language. Just as birds exprn's by their
songs their varied sentiments. so the
Go,neroS, by whistling and piping like
the birds, can relate to each other all the
news of the hour and convey any I'M
pressions and ideas that they may desire.
A stranger wandering over the islands
is frequently surprised to hear on
nearby hilltop the sound OF loud whis-
Ting. which is quickly repeated on ths
next hill Until it dies away IN the dis
tance. 1t is the natives converslns aoou,
the events Of the day. such as the arrival
of the latest ship. the number Of her pas
sengers, the weather prospect and SO on.
Though they have no newspapers. the
Gomeros are as eager for the latest news
as the most civilized persons. and they
whistle it to each other with amazing
celebrity and accuracy.
No sooner. indeed. does foreigner
appear on the islands than full dc
scription of him is flashed in this way
from cne end of the country to the other.
AT a distance it is impossible to dis
tinpuish between a whistling Gcmero
and a singing canary. but the nearer one
approaches to Gomcro the less marked
does this resemblance become. The Com
GRO never ceases to initiate the canary.
but at the same time he whistles with
such power and intensity that the SOUND
almost deafens those who are unaccus-
toned to it and who suddenly hear 1t
near them.
Yet this sound is soft and melodious
compared with other sounds, which the
Gomeros also make Being high spirited
and proud, they frequently desire to ex-
press exultation or triumph or some
other strong sentiment. and on such oc-
casions they either neigh like horses or
below like bulls. Thus they use not
only a main language, which is de-
rived from the songs of birds, but also
two dialects, which horses and bulls have
taught them.
