Significant Historical Fact.

Significant Historical Fact.
To the historian II cannot but ap-
pear as a significant thing that all
other previous great cruises in his
tory, with the exception of those I'M
dertaken by English.speaking sailors,
have only resulted in disaster and
shame There was the great cruise
of the Spanish armada. for instance,
launched against England by Philip IL
of Spain, which ended in such utter
rout and disaster.
About the same time in the far east
the Japanese conqueror Hldeyoshi, un-
dertook to subiugate Korea and China
with q formidable feet of some $50
war junks, many of them armed with
brass cannon. yet his feet, too. was
overcome in fair fight by the com.
bined war fleets Of China and Korea.
