BIG JAPANESE NAVY
Rear Admiral Motoki Tells of
Great Progress Made.
Work Done at Four Ship Building
Yards Enables Japan to Attain
Position In Front Rank Of
Naval Powers.

London.-The development by the
Japanese of their naval resources
since the end of the war with Russia
is a subject about which not much in
formation of an authentic character
had been divulged, but flood OF light
was shed upon the matter in the pa
pers read by delegates from Japan at
the international Congress OF Naval
Architects. just held In London.
Rear Admiral Motoki Kondo the in
spector-general Of Japanese naval con-
struction, who contributed paper on
the progress Of his department. dealt
first with the four navy yards, two OF
which, those at Yokosuka and kure,
have launched eight armored ships
since 1905. 1t must be remembered
that before that year the largest YES
sci built In Japan was four-thousand-
TON protected cruiser.
Yokosuka dockyard was started In
1855, and its first dock opened In 1870.
Only wooden ships were built until
1885, and from that year until 1905
only gunboats and small cruisers. To-
day the yard employs more than eight
thousand men and occupies 116 acres.
having two large and three small
building slips and four craving docks.

Chicago Experts Pooh-Pooh New

Chicago.-"Why are there so many
fat women ?'-Quotation from a New
York dispatch in morning newspa-
per.
There are not!"-Answer of Chi
cago experts on the figure feminine.
Some little old New Yorker, with
his Broadwise eyes, has been making
observations in the eastern city, but
his profound dismay" at what he
calls the alarming corpulence OF our
middle aged women" finds no SYM
pathetic echo In Chicago. A reporter
visited half dozen corset dealers and
filters and found them agreed that
the Chicago woman, at least, retains
her slim, graceful figure.
Il admit that the New York woman
is little prone to stoutness," said
Miss A. M. Nichols, manager OF large
downtown corset shop. but the Chi
cago woman still has the loose, ath-
letic lines. so much admired and de-
sired"
The New York dispatch deplores
that women 'waddle ponderously" at
thirty-five, condition reached by
overeating and drinking. The average
weight-New York figures-is 165
pounds and suit sizes 3S bust and
"a waist.
The average Chicago woman weighs
under $50 pounds" continued Miss
Nichols. "She wears a SO bust and a
"a waist. That has been my expert
ence, and handle all sorts and class
es of women.
How does she do It? Why, by TAX
ing care of herself. For instance, she
does not overeat. She has practical

night. She exercises systematically
that is. when she is advised to exer-
else to keep in condition she does not
go violently pell-mell at it. She uses
common sense.
Then our leisure class is leisure
class In name only. No women take
better care of themselves than Chi
cago society women. However, the
appreciation of the luxurious never de-
velops into mad chase. 1t is tenn
pered with right living. AS far as
getting old and 'matronly' at thirty
five Is considered-well, she Just
don't.
This New York man says he has
counted four stout women to every
stout man. Just go out on the street
any time and make observation and
see how far from fitting the Chicago
condition that New York observation
comes"
Miss Anna Snyder, manager OF an
other shop and an expert filter,
laughed when she read the dispatch.
Isn't that just like a man?' she
smiled. why, with modern lacing it
is beyond any poor man to tell wheth-
er woman is stout or slender. Cor
setting has become such science that
women strike more symmetrical
average
Another sapient remark by this
male person is that the American wom-
an cannot wear a hobble skirt be-
cause her hips are too broad. That
New York man certainly should take
a trip outside of his city. Why, the
hobble was made for the slender lines
of the Chicago feminine figure"
We'll, | just returned from New
York." said Nine. Jeanne, at the head
of another establishment, land while
the New York woman has made fine
start toward running her figure with
immoderate eating and drinking,
fear she is not so far past redemption
as the New York man would have us
think. Perhaps he has a preference
for the splender type and one or two
stout women seen one right after the
other sent him off In panic.
AT any rate. we need not worry

atioat.
The Kure navy yard was begun only
In 1889, but 1t now rivals the Yoko-
suka, having two large slips, besides
smaller ones for torpedo craft, and
two craving docks, with two others
under construction. Here guns and
gun mountings are manufactured. the
progress In output having been suffi-
cient to supply the armament of al
most all the warships built in late
years Kure also possesses steel and
armor plate works, the latter plant
having been started In 1902. The ar
NOR is made by special process de-
vised by Japanese engineers, and has
given good results.
The two other navy yards, the
Sasewo and the Maidzuru, are on a
smaller scale, being used for repair
work and the construction of small
craft. In addition, there are now two
private shipyards capable of building
armorclads, one ct Nagasaki, the other
at Kobe. Each has just received an
order for battle cruiser similar to
the ship ordered In England last year,
while fourth vessel of the same type
is building at Yokosuka
In the course of his paper on naval
engineering In japan, Rear Admiral
Terugoro Fulfil stated that these four
new battle cruisers fitted with tur-
bines would have engines of $1,000
horsepower. Their displacement is to
be 27,50O tons, and with their high
speed and gun power. when they are
completed in 1914 they will make
potent flying squadron in the Pacific.
The turbine has been adopted for all
ships begun since 1905, some vessels
being fitted with the Curtis turbine,
and others with that Of the Parsons
type. The boilers in use in the Jap
anese navy are OF new design, first
tried In a cruiser in 1903. These
