vLADivosroK AND HAKoDArA
What Old Sailors Say Of These Two
Northern Towns.

There has been considerable specu.
lation as to the ability OF any war
vessel getting near enough to Hako-
date to damage the town at this sea-
son of the year, because of its high
latitude. This is the port where New
Bedford whalers touch before enter
ing the Ochotsk Sea, and with view
of better information as to the posi-
billties Capt. Joshua G.. Baker, of Pa
danaram was seen yesterday Afternoon.
From him may be gained a clearer
idea OF the situation, so far as relates
to that port, so well known by reputE
ton by people here, who are or who
have been concerned in whaling.
"Hakodate lies in latitude AZ north"
said Captain Baker, land is on the
southern edge of the island Of Yezo,
which is separated from the larger
island south by the Tsuga strait.
Il have been there a great many
times Hakodate has fine land
locked harbor, and in all my expert
ence l never heard of the barber
freezing. The current is very strong
in Tsuga strait, so strong in fact that
ice could not possibly make, and al
though snow storms are frequent I
can't say as / ever heard of ice MAX
ing, either in Hakodate harbor or in
the strait.
THE harbor is a bold one at the
head of quite large bay, and there
would be no difficulty for an enemy
entering the waters and bombaI kg
the city"
Vladivostok is about 400 miles west
from the Japanese port, and is on the
mainland. 1t is in about the same
latitude as Hakodate, although the
conditions are the opposite and the
harbor is a closed one all winter long.
Once frozen in there when winter
sets in, the ice does not break up I'm,
til warmer weather.
Capt. Edmund F. Bolles, in speaking
of Vladivostok, says it is closdA
harbor with a narrow entrance like
that of New Bedford. The city is on
the east shore of basin, and once
in there in winter it means stay there
until released by warm weather, when
the ice breaks up, unless other means
are resorted to for breaking out a
vessel, for it is possible to blow out
a passage or even saw out a channel.
A few years ago the late Chaxles
Cotter, while on United States war
vessel, spent the whole winter at
Vladivostok, and not until late in the
spring was the ship released, In
cruising the warship put in atAthat
harbor and was caught there by re-
naming too long. On his return home
Mr.. Cotter told of the desolate appear
ance Of his surroundings. One of the
incidents which he related was that
the refuse from the cabin table and
other food was thrown on the solid
ice surrounding the ship and so nam
erous were the animals seeking food
that 1t never accumulated, but Was
cleaned up daily by these animals
from shore.-New Bedford Standard.

long tack to come back to the harbor

The party were to start from Morris

Everything went well. however, until
Captain Hitchcock rounded Lighthouse
Point and headed the sloop down the

1t was here that trouble began, and
although the sloop is a pretty stout one,
she was given pounding enough to
shake up the youthful tars into such d

night the old farmer women stop be-
fore the bulletin boards that hang
along the roadway and get the latest
information, and they invest their
hard-earned eoppers in brilliantly COL
ored Autographs illustrating Incidents
of personal bravery and other episodes
Of the war. OF course these pictures
are pro-Japanese to the extreme. In
every representation of a battle the
Russians are five to one and that one
valiant son of Nippon is cutting their
heads off or running them through with
his sword as rapidly as possible, while
on their knees they plead for mercy.
These autographs are pasted on the
walls Of houses and are passed from
hand to hand among the peasants as
accurate presentations of actual events,
but that is no more Of a deception than
is praeticed by the newspapers in their
highly colored accounts of the cam
paigns. A few of the English newspa-
pers published the truth as closely as
they dare, and fortunately everything

A rather dismal group then huddled
themselves by the track and debated on
the next logical move to be made.
The young man OF the mandolin
proved equal to the occasion. He led
the party down to the float Df the New

large watermelons that were to have
been eaten on the run up from Wood

Then he and three others Of the party
skirmished around the village and
