The victories Of the japanese in Man
churia make 1t interesting to compare
their methods Of lighting and their
weapons with those OF the Russians.
The repeated successes OF the Japa-
nese naturally raise the query whether
their superiority over their foes on
land as wen as at sea is due wholly
to greater strategy and courage or In
part to the character Of their arms.
Certainly much OF the success of the
Japanese is due to their ability to 70
in light marching order and outstrip
the enemy In all kinds Of maneuvers.
During the Boxer instruction in Chi
ma in 1900 the Japanese soldiers were
notable for their ability in this re-
spect. They pack their supplies and
ammunition so that they can be NOV

Is lighter than that Of the enemy. AS

The rifles Of the opposing armies are
about equal In weight. though they
are quite different in construction and

the capacity for being up to date which
the japanese have shown OF late years

displayed in the equipment OF their
army and navy. and this Is now prov
