Japan's Reply Seems Likely to
Lead to More Conferences.

ST. Petersburg. Jan. 15-The japanese Min
lister. NJ. Kurino. to-day delivered the Japanese
reply to the Foreign Office here. The reply is
now under consideration.
The Foreign Office says that the present stage
of the negotiations is in some respects In adj
vance on previous stages. and that the two
governments have approached an understanding
on some points. but not others.
There hopefulness to-day In many quar-
ters where pessinism formerly prevailed Con-
sentative opinion holds that, while the prospect
of peace is better than ever. the end cannot be
predicted with certainty. particularly the man
ner in which settlement can be obtained.
The intimation received here that President
Roosevelt is selecting consus to represent the
United States at Moukden and An-Tung, In
Manchuria, the ports opened to commerce by
the recently ratified treaty between the United
States and China. was received as a matter of
course.
Continuing its anti-war campaign. the Russ
to-day predicts that even granting that Russia
is victorious, there will be subsequent inter-
ference on the part of other powers and a new
edition of the Berlin Congress"

added that in some sections the law provides
that every candidate who desires to be selected

AFRICA.
The Way That Name Was BESTOWED
Upon the Continent.

The Way That Name Was BESTOWED
Upon tlle Continent.
The name Africa was given by the
Roman conquerors, after the third
Punic war. Ii. c. 146. to the province
which they formed to cover the terri
tory of Carthage. 1t was most prob
ably adopted from the word AIRY
gah," the Carthagenian term for a col
ony.
This original Africa was limited in
extent. Its borders reached, according
to Pliny, from the River Tusca on the
west, whici. divided it from Numidia,
to the bottom Of the Syrtis Minor ON
the southeast, though Ptolemy carries
1t as far east as the bottom of the
Great Syrtis, making it include Numi-
dia and Tripolitana.
In later days the whole African con-
tinent took its name from this part,
which in its narrower limits CORE
sponded with the modern regency of
Tunis and was called by the Greeks
Lydia. Africus, the stormy southwest
wind, was so called in Italy because 1t
blew from Africa.

There is story of a privateer's
crew of forty to fifty men capturing a
Turkish galley with 500 seamen and
soldiers on board by means of a swarm
of bees judiciously thrown among the
unspeakable ones. However this may
be, there are enough authentic in
stances OF strange methods of attack
to provide amply sufficient material
for the casuist in deciding what is fair
and what unfair in war. Burning
naphtha, boiling lead, birds, carcases
of men and horses, Chinese stinkpots,
besides the implements already men,
toned, have all been used for offensive
or defensive purposes in actual war
fare.
