who had strayed to the edge of the

Quick as a flash the workman
jumped forward, tossed the child back
to i place of safety and was himself
grazed by the cylinder, which rolled
him over on the platform pretty
roughly.
Several people FASTENED TO his assist
ance, but he rose uninjured. although
with a face expressive of grave con-
Germ.

quarters in Japan. The Emperor is
nominaliy commander Of both the
army and navy, but he relies upon the
general staff to counsel and act for
him. The chief of the general staff is
Field Marshal Marquis Oyama. He
was prominent in the field of 1S94-93.
After the death of General Kawakami,
who was the Moltke in the China wal.
Marshal Oyama became chief of staff.
To-day he holds this position, yet it is
only in name that he is chief. General
Kawakami's real successor is Lieu
tenant-G General Baron Kodama, recent
ly appointed vice-chief Of the general
staff.
Baron Kodama has been for some
years the Governor-Genera of Formo-
50. Great expectations are centred
upon him. He has shown exceptional
ability in Formosa and is looked to as
a man Of genius in large military
strategy. The world will probably
hear much of him. He is a young
man, slight in physique, but very alert,
decisive and positive in bearing. AS

that new policy. Educated at the
United States Naval Academy and lat
er a student at European centres Of
learning, he is said to be one of the
most broad minded Of his countrymen.
SO much does he approve of Western
ism that he makes English the lam
guage Of his home in Toxic. His wife,
4 Japanese graduate of Vassar Col
lege, and his five children know their
native tongue, but they do not use it
among themselves. The Admiral
writes and speaks English perfectly,
and every publication issued by the
class of 81 since it left Annapolis con-
tains some contribution from his pen.
Admiral Togo is now about ffty-fve
years of age. He is not of prince!y or
noble birth, but is a simple gentleman,
a Samurai Of the great SatSuma clan,
as so many of his f~ellow-oficers are.

same way that the Japanese army was
drawn from the ChOshu clan. Nova
days, neither navy nor army is entirely
given over to these, the two most pow
erful of the clans of Japan, but many
men from all over the empire are to be
found in both services. When Togo
entered the navy. however, its whole
personnel was SatSuma. Admiral Togo
received a great part of his education

Japanese Babies.

Judging by Western ideas, Japanese
babies have a hard time; yet, says the
| San Francisco Bulletin. there are no
healthier children in he world. The
Japanese baby is dressed and un-
dressed in a frigid temperature in
| winter, and in summer no care is taken
| to protect it's tender little eyes from the
full glare of the sun In winter the
| small head is covered with a worsted
| cap of the brightest and gayest de-
| sign and color. The black hair is cut
in all sorts Of fantastic ways, just
like the hair of the japanese dolls
imported into this country.
The babies of the lower classes are
generally carried Oh the backs Of the
mother or little sister: sometimes the
small brother is obliged to be the
nurse-maid. The kimoLo is made extra
large at the back. with a pocket of
sufficient size to hold the baby, whose
round head reaches the back Of the
neck of the person who is carrying
it. It is rot an uncommon sight to
SEE Cullul III lO AK OOLSiJ Oio ShO-S-
t toddle burdened with a small broth
er or sister sleeping peacefully on their
back. At first Il expects to see the
child stagger and fall beneath the
weight, but apparently none of its
movements are impeded, and it plays
with the other children as u%nconcern-
eddy as if it were not loaded down
with another member of the family.
At Nagasaki. among the women coal
ers who coal the ships, one sees many
who carry babies on their backs in
this way. The mothers work all day
in the rain or the sun or the snow,
and the baby seems Indifferent to
everything. The top of its head alone
is visible, while the movements of the
mother do not seem in the least him
dered, and she accomplishes as much
work IS the men.

THE DEATH SENTENCE IN ENGLAND
How They Made 1t Act az q Deterrent in
the Good Old Days.

How They Made 1t Act as q Deterrent in
the Good Old Days.
The present agitation in England to
abolish the p%ronouncing of the death
sentence in cases where it is patent
that capital punishment will not follow
will probably meet with. the approval
of most people who desire that the
law should lose nothing of its dignity
and at the same time have nothing Of
unnecessary horror added. The Lord
Chancellor pleads for the retention OF
the form. saying that the passing Of the
death sentence will act as a deterrent.
James I. juggled with death sentences
in this manner and got himself rather
badly disliked for it. Over the plot in
which Raleigh. Gotham, Grey and 9th.
ers were implicated he had the less
puissant ones put to death and very
"bloodily handled" Cobham's brother
was beheaded like a gentleman The
Bishop of Chichester, with the blood
of the latter still upon him, went then
to Lord Gotham. Him the Bishop ex'
horted to confession. Other M'elates
were similarly engaged with Sir Wal
ter Raleigh and Lord Grey. Meantime
Markham, another of the conspirators,
had been placed upon the scaffold and
was about to bow his head to the axe
when the Sheriff was called away
by q Scotch hireling, ard the prisoner
left to contemplate the axe for an hour.
Then he was led away and told to pre-.
pare for death at the end of two hours.
Grey's turn was next. He prayed half
an hour before the block. then raised
himself to die-and was led away. the
King sending word that the order of
execution had been changed. So forth
came Gotham, and having made his
last declaration, prepared to take fare
we'll of the world. when the Sheriff
stayed the execution, and brought
forth Markham and Grey-all three
thinking that the other two had been
executed. They were told, after hav
ing suffered the agony of all but death
itself. that their lives would be spared.
Raleigh's experience was similar. That
was how they used to make death sch
fences act as a deterrent" in the good
old days. There would be danger FOR
those who tried a repetition to-day
