 Arthur we felt that we were justified in sending just short message, and so at ,9:15 we sent brief report from within seven miles of Port Arthur, which furnishes the first record of a wireless message reporting naval en- gagement being sent direct from the scene of operations to the office of the journal which was to give it to the public"
 The correspondent maintains that the value and possibilities of wireless teleg- raphy in conjunction with journalistic enterprise has been amply demonstrat- ed. Indeed" he declares, sI am in- clined to think 1t has demonstrated its uses too well, and that the success of the system will bring it's downfall AL though am positive that in our hands the system was always put to proper uses, yet the possibilities and the dan gers are so great that in future the use of all wireless communications during military and naval operations will be controlled by international law" Thus this notable news gathering feat may be at once the first and the last of it's kind

Port Arfhursa Name.

The connection that exists between Port Arthur and a peaceful village in Devonshire is little known, says the St. James Gazette. Half century ago the rector at Atherington was the Rev. James Arthur, the father of Lieuten- ant w. Arthur, R. N., and great-uncle of the present rector, the Rev. w. w. Arthur. and Lieutenant Arthur was somewhere about 1859 sent in com mand of the gunboat Algerine into Chi nese waters. The Algerine was at tached to surveying expedition prior to the landing made by the English and French in 1860. and when the flag ship Acteon was disabled Lieutenant Arthur towed her into the then un- named harbor, which was thenceforth known as Port Arthur. Lieutenant Ar thur atterward attained the rank c rear admiral.

Here is condensed description of the get-up Of the expatriated multimillion- aire as ho appeared ono day on Broad way: He wore thin blue serge suit The coat buttoned at the top, wrinkled as the two sides seemed to tug at the button. A monocle hung at his vest. partly concealed. His watch. was in the upper coat pocket, enchained to the buttonhole. There were wrinkles in the trousers, but no creases. The hat was of the sort occasionally worn on chowder outings. No one would have taken MT. Astor for man of wealth. If the seventeen trunks which came as his luggage were all filled with clothing his valet selected the worst fitting suit for his masters stroll.

SHOW TASTE IN BOOKS.
Several of Shakespeare's Works Have Been Translated by Prof.
 Tsupouchi.

It Is but 40 years since an English book was practically unknown in Japan, the only foreign literature foreign language to be taught in the schools was the Dutch. Now, while the English is the most common among the people and is studied by all high class pupils, German and French are favored generally by scholars and physicians. There is foreign lan- guage school in Tokio, where almost all languages are taught, and. curious lly enough, Russian is the favorite. The study of English literature in Japan is represented by Prof. Yuze Tsubouchi, who has translated into Japanese some of Shakespeare's plays --"Othello," Macbeth" and ."The Merchant of Venice.'' The most wide ly known English writer in Japan is Carlyle. All students of English lit erature in Japan read his works. Next to Carlyle comes Macaulay and the new Hanyaku, or translation style, was practically created by borrowing his language by the Minyushamen, literary band in Tolio. Emerson Is greatly admired and his writings have influenced many notable Japanese journalists of to-day. Mill and Her. bert Spencer have also influenced the thought of modern Japan.
 Tennyson, Longfellow, Wordsworth. Byron and Milton are the most pop sular poets. and in fiction Irving, Thackeray and Dickens are best known. Bellamy's Looking Back ward has been recently translated into Japanese.

Modern Novel.

The modern novel is often little more than an enlarged anecdote, in which two or three, or perhaps half dozen, per- sons keep the drama moving. A story of Dickens is not an anecdote, but his- tory.
