JAPANESE MERCHANT MARINE.
New Power Reaching Out for the
Pacific Carryin Trade.

Consul Anderson of Annoy directs
attention to the fact that periodicals
in Great Britain devoted to commercial
interests are discussing the increase
OF Japanese shipping in the Chinese
coast trade. There is abundant evil
dence that the Japanese government is
working theoretically and persistently
to build up japanese shipping interests
The fact that a certain Japanese noble
man established shipyard in one of
the japanese ports to give the nation a
start in that direction indicates the
general spirit with which the upbild-
ing OF the Japanese merchant marine
is being under taken.
In this connection it is worth while
to note that London publication re-
ports that during the past few weeks
in the English metropolis there have
been very large number of merchant
vessels sold to Eastern buyers, and
every week has increased the total of
steamers so disposed of. After these
boats have sailed for the East the fact
is generally disclosed that the buyer is
a Japanese firm. A list of q vessels,
between 573 tons and $500 tons. is
given IN the Pail Mall Gazette. When
it is considered that the Japanese have
acquired a very respectable mercan-
tile fleet of nearly 80 first-class steam
ers from blockade runners captured on
the way to Vladivostock, it may be
realized that Japanese acquisition of
shipping is considerable. The vessels
are nearly all old iron steamers built
in the SOS, and shipping men say that
as iron lasts better than steel, they
still have a lot of wear in them.
There seems to be a general under
standing that the close of the war be.

very large, if not a predominant, part
in Chinese coast snipping.-Daily Con

The most preposterous requirement
OF the new circular is that the volun-
teer should have sound teeth. In
the case Of man called out for the
defence of the country such condi-
ton can only excite derision. Any
man Of sound body who shoots well,
and is active and intelligent-even if
he has some slight physical disability
is most valuable asset for the de-
fence Of the country. No one who has
had any practical military experience
would throw away the services of
such a man.
The request that officers in COM
mand of volunteer districts should
furnish information as to whether they
have any units which are considered
inefficient, and which should be dis
banded Or amalgamated with other
corps, seems to be an indication to
these officers That it would be very
agreeable to- the war Office if they re-
ported in this sense;' and in some
cases the hint will probably be taken
This is only another proof of the de-
termination of Mr.. Arnold-Forster to
destray gradually the volunteer for
ces. In fact. l have heard it said by
people WHO would like to see volun-
teers disappear, that their 'raison
G'etre" is past, because they were
raised at time when invasion was
proposed by France, and that this
state of things no longer exists. Any
thing more puerile i find difficult to
imagine. 1t seems to me just like
stopping the insurance on your house
because it was once in danger of
being burnt down.

in building operations that new appl1-

secure permanence and econom of con-
structoin are being constantly record
ed. One of the latest is from Liver
secure permanencean and economy of con-
crete are being erected by the corpora
ton for the artisan classes, the idea
being that the cost of erection can be
reduced to point that will enable
rooms to be rented for a shilling a
week. The material used consists or
concrete blocks formed from waste
crushed clinker obtained from the city
refuse destructor plant, which ordi-
narily is employed in making concrete
slabs for crosswalks and in pavement
foundations. The structure of these
slab or concrete dwellings is reinforced
b steel framing, and they appear emil
nently strong and durable.
The cost of brick dwellings recently
erected in Liverpool was in one case
about $4,000, and in another about
$11 900, for a block, while the est1.
mated cost of concrete block was burt
$4,000. In the actual erection, how
ever, there was required a new and
necessary plant which brought the
cost to over $4,000, but the actual
amount involved in the building was
but $4,000. The engineer in charge
is confident that with further expert
ence the new method will be found
most economical, and desires to erect
five additional blocks. If dwellings
for the masses can be provided at a
substantial reduction on present costs,
the use Of concrete is bound to have
an importan influence on sociological
nditions.-Harper's Weekly.

GAMBLING AT CATTLE SHOWS.

New Bedford Standard-It is given
out that all gambling at cattle shows
will be rigidly suppressed byt he state
police this year. Well, it ought to- be.
There may be a certain respect for
some forms of gambling and betting,
which are frank and open and above
board, and decent so far as they can
be decent. But much of the cattle
show gambling is distinctly miserable
and an aflront to common sense. OF
all the petty forms of thievery, that
which flourishes in the cattle show
season under the alluring title OF
games of chance outranks any other
that has been permitted in the state of
Massachusetts. For the sake of COM
mon ordinary decency and manliness
it ought to be suppressed.

Taste in Naval Nomenclature.

Providence Journal-Most persons
with any sense of appropriateness will
agree with Secretary Bonaparte that
neither Nestor nor Orestes would be
a happy name for one of the navy's
new Golfers. They will hardly, how
ever, find more felicity of choice in
his own suggestion of Promotheus or
Vestal. The fact is that when they
experiment with the use of other
names than those of states. cities or
naval heroes the authorities at Wash
ington are sadly given to either bal
taste or absurdity in naval nomen-
clature, as was caustically caustically
brought to notice by Admiral Dewey
when, after two of the scouts en-
ployed in the Spanish war had been
christened Harvard and Yale. he pro-
posed that the next two be called the
Massachusetts Institute of Technology
and the Vermont Normal and Agrioul-
tural Institute.
