Plan to Restore the sphinx.

A project is on foot in Alexandria, Egypt, for restoring the sphinx, near the great pyramid of Gizeh, to it's original condition. Thick layers of soil completely cover the head of the mon- ument while the lower parts are great ly obscured by accumulations of sand. It is proposed to clear all these accumu- lations away and to clean the head completely. When thevwork has been completed the sphinx will once more appear, if not in it's first freshness, at least in the grandeur of its original pro- portions.

What Is the sentiment among the masses in Japan2"

What Is -the sentiment among the masses in Japan?"
 They are seriously happy. mean by that that while they are joyful they are not overjoyed. They have not lost their heads, but look upon the progress of the war with real serious and con- servative satisfaction. As an example of the patriotism that has been arous- ed even in the hearts of the women and children I will tell you of some thing that happened just before left Japan, less than month ago. A friend of mine in Tokyo, who has hand some home and wife and five chill dren, was informed by the authorities that his house would be requisitioned for the purpose of quartering soldiers. He was asked how many he could ac- commodate. After considering the matter carefully, he told the authori ties he would take fifteen. His five children had been considering the mat ter, too, and when they heard him say fifteen, they said in chorus: Fifteen! Why, father, you can take thirty. We don't mind being crowded, and if nee essary we will give up our own rooms.' That is the spirit which prevails throughout the empire"

HOW JAPAN MAY WIN.
Control of the Sea Only Needed
 Says Japanese Statesman.
The Success at Port Arthur and Che- mulpo Regarded as Master Stroke of the War by New Japanese secre- tary at washinEtOn-Believ Russ Sample Of Jnpanese Patriotism.

tary at hinRtOn-Believes Russ
 sian Army Can He Starved Out.
 Sample of Japanese Pntriotism.
 If Japan can maintain her suprem- acy upon the sea there is, in my mind, pno doubt that she will be victorious in Ithe present conflict. As long as Japan can control the seacoast from Vladivo- stok to Port Arthur she will be the master of her own destiny" This sig nificant statement, made by MT. Xxi :, Hioki, the new first secretary of the Japanese legation, who arrived in Washington late the other night, is but one of many which that interesting diplomat made recently to representa- tive of the Washington Star.
 MT. Hioid is one of the foremost of the younger Japanese statesmen. He was one Of the secretaries of the Jap anese legation in Washington in 1891 and 1892 and was consul general at f.New York for long while.
 '@The victory of the Japanese fleet at Port Arthur and Chemulpo," continued ] MT. Hioki, twill prove to have been the master stroke of the war. We realized that Korea and southern Manchuria were long way of from St. Peters burg and Moscow and that Russia would be unable to maintain an army Eof any great size in either of these two countries unless she could keep them supplied with ammunition, equipment and provisions from one of the Siberian or Manchurian ports. It is claimed \ Ah-A ID I1r[ the front, Think, then, how much pro vision is necessary, particularly in win :, ter weather, to protect such an army from cold and hunger and disease. If Russia can maintain this army she must exert every energy and every fla cility.
 If she attempts to increase this army she will decrease her chances of victory, because more than 100000 men cannot be supplied by the transconti- mental railroad. .N ... ...
 Then, too, the Chinese natives in Manchuria are restless and have open ly avowed their friendship for Japan. 1t would not take such a great force to attack that railroad guard at some fa- vorable point and destroy more track in an hour than Russia could repair in week. With 100000 Russians in the peninsula, their food supply cut off on the north and the Japanese navy in control of the sea, the result Is ob- vious. That Is why say Japan need have no fear so long as she is in con- trol of the sea. At the same time we can increase our army and keep 1t well provisioned."
 How large an army can Japan put into the field thoroughly equippedT was asked.
 That is hard to say" replied MT. Hioki, .as we have never been put to the test, but I believe that without difficulty we can outnumber tho Rus sians, two te one, if 2ecassarv."

The Approach of Spring.

Spring is coming! Hip, hurrawt Cannot keep it dark, sir. Sparrer cop declares he saw A bluebird in the park, sir. Heard 1t sing little lay,
 And it set him humming, Winters going far away, .. % And the spring is coming" {, Spring is coming! Winters 1osti All our hearts are throbbin'. Though the ground still knows thu
 frost,
 Kids have seen q robin. Now they're waiting for its song When with worms 'tis chumming. Nesting time will not be long, For the spring is coming. Snakes are waking from their sleep, Wriggfing round in wonder, Wnkened from their slumbers deep By clap of thunder. Geel I'm lazy as can be!
 Wisht that I was bumming. Want the country or the sea, For the spring is coming. -Grif Alexander in Pittsburg Dispatch.

Russia Proposes to Close K1nkOw.
 Commander Sawyer Wants It Open.
 WASHINGTON, March 12.--An i'm. portant dispatch has been received at the navy department from Rear Ad- miral Evans, commanding the Asiatic squadron, in which he reported that Commander Sawyer of the gunboat Helena, now in mud dock at New chwang, had made a protest to the Russian authorities against the sinking of boats at the entrance to the harbor of Yinkow Yinkow is the port of en- try for Newchwang, and the announce ment that the Russians intended to block the entrance was received with some surprise.
 Immediately upon the receipt of Ad- miral Evans communication Secretary Hay and Secretary Moody had a con- forence. and it was decided to uphold Comm1nder Sawyer's action. New chwalNs is one of the neutral treaty ports of Manchuria, and the action of this government in protesting against It's blockade means an insistence upon the neutrality of the port.
 Admiral Evans reports that the Jap. anese had appeared at Fungwang. chwang and at Tashang and that it was reported an engagement had oc- cured at the former place.
 Two submarine torpedo boats have been shipped by rail from Port Arthur to Vladivostok and will be utilized by the Russians there for harbor defensA
