t '
P" \^] HEX tlie allies had to fight 1
hard at Tien-tsin to escape 1
j |/ir being whipped by despised
| Chinese troops, the Ameri- 1
ufo cans and Europeans be- <
heved what they had heard of the 1
quality of the Japanese fighting man. '
They joined forces with him, rather 1
.inclined to class him as an experiment 1
* in modern warfare, they took off their :
^iiafcs to his courage, discipline, dash l
iand endurance when they left him. .*
:But this campaign was not needed to 1
- - - " ' I ,
prove tnat tne 'reaay-muue aim.T ,
;navy of the Japanese was equal to s
:any tests of actual service. j
In the Chinese War one of the na- <
.tional heroes of Japan was in command <
of a tin pot of a merchant steamer i
.which had been pressed into service as
, a transport, mounting a couple of rap- I
, :id-fire popguns. This sailor, now Rear J
.Admiral Ivabayama, was not looking 1
for action, but unexpectedly he found t
himself on the edge of the fight of the i
:Yalu. Before he could get out of the j
way, his transport was cut off from the s
{Japanese fleet and cornered under the I
fire of Chinese battleships and cruis- 1
iers. The feeble craft seemed a hope- t
.less insurance risk, but Captain Kaba- <
{ ^ iyama had no idea of surrender or injactivity.
He dodged in and out of the i
i fighting line, trying to pick a way to j
jsea, but doing his share of the pound- i
-;ing whenever he got a chance. His 1
* |rapid-fire guns barked incessantly. He c
riddled and sunk a torpedo boat that t
was rash enough to make for him, and f
.banged away at battleships with amaz- s
;ing audacity. When a shell burst on t
his deck and swept away a gun crew, s
"he ordered two of his officers to fetch c
jtfceir cameras and get some realistic J
pictures. E
Another torpedo boat shot out of the r
;ruck and let go her torpedoes at point- s
itrtank range. "Here is where we all
igo up in the air together," said Captain s
, [Kabayama. But the torpedo dived I
iciean under the ship, and to show that c
this trifling escape did not daunt the c
'Japanese skipper, he sent his ship full t
?peed ahead and tried to ram the big- t
jgest Chinese battleship in the line, r
iThe quarry dodged, and, feeling that I
jfee had done his share with the limited c
,'means at his command, Kabayama t
[worked his way through the battle 1
land rejoined the Japanese fleet, his c
? .'transport badly cut up, and many of l
|fcis crew killed, but still in commis- i
sion. i
Vice-Admiral Togo, now commanding c
,'a squadron almost sure to be engaged &
jin the next great naval fight, was a *
icaptain in the Chinese War. He com- d
jmanded a second-class cruiser, the ?
iNaniwa, which was in more hot fight- *
ling than any other ship of the Japan- F
lese navy, and earned his title as the E
*' j"Fighting Admiral." He has a liigkSiauded
way of doing things, and is *
not a safe man to take chances with in s
iwar. The British ship Kowshing and r
I |two others had been loaded up with v
troops and stores for the Chinese and a
saut off for Korea. When in sight of a
the Korean coast, the cruiser Xaniwa T
came in sight of the convoy, and T
.promptly hove a few shells across the *
^ 'bows of the Kowshing as a signal to E
istop and be captured. The order was ^
'obeyed, and Captain Togo signaled: h
."Remain where you are or take the
consequences." F
The Kowshing was ordered a little *
* Jater to follow the cruiser, but the a
ipanic-strickeu Chinese would not let *
tbe British skipper obey the command, F
and threatened to murder him if he a
did not turn tail and run for it. Cap- *
- T
itain Togo was not playing at war. ami iwhen
he was disobeyed he opened up *
' * :with the five guns he could bring to
jbear, signaling for all Europeans to s
jleave the Kowshing. The terrified 1
jship tried to get out of range. Captain c
:Togo chased her, and. l'eeling annoyed f
overthe situation, let go a torpedo from
one of his bow tubes. Herr von Han.neken,
a Prussian officer in the Chi- *
inese service, was 011 board the Kew- t
,'shing. A few seconds after the Xani- *
wa torpedo hissed into the sea, he re- *
fiates, 4*tbe day became night. Pieces
* of coal, splinters of what had been the
:ship, columns of water, filled the air.'
:i believe all of us leaped overboard, 1
or were hurled skyward. Many of the *
crew reached land by sjwimining. The 5
* Japanese captain woiljd give 110 aid 1
'in rescuing the Chintscj. He was not J
at that time educated |"up io the lin- ;
inanities of warfare.'- I ]
! Songs are snug aid jstories told to 1
this day of a Japaiesd sailor in the '
Yalif battle. While st^imliug on the "
rail of his ship he vats struck by a _
fragment of shell, litlilly lorn and s
knocked off into the sal. lie rose for a
moment in a whirl ?p bloody foam v
aud shouted to his comrades. "Japan 0
forever!" then sank. It was the same s
quality of patriotism that showed in *
the tale, told in broken English, by a a
Japanese navy lieutenant, whom an
American correspondent met in Nagasaki
not long ago. The young officer (
was in command of one of the torpc- [
do boats which attacked iu flotilla the
Chinese battlcsh:ps iu the harbor of s
Wei-Hai-Wei. As ail naval experts t
take for granted, such an attack means t
th<* destruction of most of the torpedo ^
bout force, and success is achieved if j
one of them lives long enough :o send i
its deadly weapon home. This what j

happened at Wei-Hai-Wei. Said the
lieutenant:
"The fire was very heavy. The two
torpedo boats nearest mine were ridiled
and sank with all on board before
they were within striking distance.
We were hit many times, and had some
killed aud wounded. But the engines
were working still, and the steering
tear was not smashed, and enough of
is were left to attend to these things
ind also to serve the torpedo tubes, so
we were very lucky. It was the happiest
moment of my life when we were
still afloat within U00 yards of the bigtest
and finest battleship left in the
Chinese navy. We fired two torpeloes,
just an instant before a shell
went through our boilers.
"Aline was me oniy anacKing vessel
eft in action. My boat blew up and
;ank before the torpedoes were much
nore than out of the tubes. I went to
he bottom and came up again, and
vhile I was trying to swim out of the
storm of shells I saw the battleship
unking like a stone. One torpedo had
down her bottom out. There were only
.our of my crew of nearly thirty
found alive, but they died happy beiause
they had helped Japan."
The immortal deed of the Japanese
irivate who blew open the Tien-tsin
fate, when it was certain that he
vould be blown up with it, had an earier
counterpart in as desperat^ a feat
>f valor at the siege of Ping-Yang, in
he Chinese War. The Ping-Yang defenders
made bloody and hard held resistance.
The Japanese troops tried
0 storm the massive walls and the
;tout gate again and "again, but were
iriven back with discouraging losses,
lifter one retreat from the walls, a
irivate of infantry, named Harada,
emained behind, crouching under the'
ihelter of the overhanging battlements.
The Chinese wariors within were
shouting over tlieir triumph, when
larada scaled the wall unseen and
Iropped into the midst o: a hundred
>f the defenders. Before they realized
vho Harada was, lie had shot three of
hem, bayoneted another, clubbed his
ifle and smashed his way to the gate,
t was the work of a moment to throw
lown the great iron bar which held
he gate closed, and he flung it open for
lis comrades to finish the job. Harala
did not rush out to join them, but
icld the gate with his back to the wall,
mtil the attacking force scampered
n and took the fort with bloody suc:ess.
Strange to say, they found the
one private aJivc and still fighting, alhough
badly cut and battered. He was
lecorated by the Emperor, and, in adLition
to the ballads made about him,
te is held up to the? schoolboys of Ja>an
as the kind of citizen the country
iceds in her defense.
The mothers of Japan have played
heir part in the heroic annals of their
oldier sous. Wifcu an infantry reginent
was marching through an inland
illage 011 its way to the front in 1894,
1 woman insisted 011 seeing a lieutenant
of the company in which her son
vas a private. The officer consented
vith reluctance, because he feared
hat she would plead that her oniy boy
Qiglit be allowed to stay at home. But
vhat she had to say and what her
lean. uas JLUH UI ?a? LIIIS.
"I have come to thank you for your
lindness to my son, and to ask you
o see that he does his duty well. I
im a widow, and he is my only son,
>ut I have told him that when he goes
nto battle he must oe quite willing
md ready to die for his Emperor and
tis country. I have to'd him, too, that
shall dies of shame if he disgraces
tiraself as a coward."
Another mother, whose son was her
;ole support, was told that her son
nust return to the colors when the re:ent
mobilisation was ordered, in preparation
for war with Russia.
"The duty to the flag," she said,
'comes before the lesser duties to the
tome. Though I should die of starvn
ion, you must not hesitate. You must
hink of your country not of me!"?

vhieh the auctioneer ia his catalogue

The Only Sanitary and Permanent Wall Coating
ALABASTINE Is not a disease-breeding, hot water glue wall finish, furnishing
a lodgment and harbor-ground for disease germs; it is a natural, rock-base
composition, in white and many exquisitely beautiful tints; in powder form, ready
for use by simply mixing with cold water. Anyone can brush it on.
A LA BAST IN E cements to walls, distroya disease germs and vermin, and never rubs
off or scales. Other wall coatings, nnder fanciful names, and usually mixed with hot
water, are unheal thiol kalsomines, stuck on the wall with glue, wmcn soon revs,
nourishes germs of deadly disease, rubs and scales, spoiling walls, clothing and furniture.
When it is necessary to reflnish, the old coats must be washed off?an expensive, nasty,
disagreeable job, making the rooms damp and unfit to live in.
When walls are once coated with Alabastine, succeeding coats may be applied, year
after year, without washing the walls, thus saving great expense and annoyance.
Hot and Cold Water Kalsomines Have No Merit
Some dealers try to sell them, buying them cheap, and trying to sell on A1 abas tine's demand
until such time as their customers learn of the imposition.
THEY ARE WORTHLESS PREPARATIONS
If you cannot buy Alabastine of your hardware, paint or drug dealer, refuse all
