The visit of Admiral Togo, the Jap anese warrior, to the West Point Milf tary Academy, where he reviewed uncle Sam's future greats, was pro- nounced by the famous Nippon as one of the most inspiring sights during his stay in this country.
 The Admiral spent much of the time coming up the Hudson River on the bridge of the Mayfiower, as a seasoned seaman would naturally do, with his hands resting on the rail before him. He watched the Palisades, Stony Point, Fort Montgomery and Iona Island sail by and he heard something of their history from his American hosts. He expressed surprise at the number of historic associations connected with the highland stretch of the river The con nection of the region with bhe achieve ments of Washington. at whose tomb he laid wreath the other day, interest ed him particularly.
 West Point had furnished its buttons to welcome Admiral Togo. It was a bright, glistening day on the river and on the historic parade ground, but the day was hardly as bright as the dag zling white uniforms and the gold lace and shining brass and gun barrels. The whole cadet corps was out to salute the great Japanese, excepting only the sec
