Points of land covered with most vivid green reached far out into the sea, and quaint fishing villages cuddled into soft vales by the shore, On the left straight lines cut on the faces of the green hills were all which would indicate that there was one of the world's strongest fortifications, the great fortress of Yukosuka, which guards the approach to Yokohama "and to the capital eity of Tokyo. Just beyond the fortress were jest battleships Jin world are built.

A few days the Empress was steaming up the yellow flood of the Yangtze, the great river of China. At Woosung Bar the "Heavenly Barrier" of the Chinese, she cast an- chor, and a powerful tug came down to take the passengers up the Whang- poo River to Shanghai, fourteen miles from Woosung. A French war fleet lay at anchor at the Bar. All the way to Shanghai we watched the fleets of commerce of many nations going to or coming from the' great sea-port of China, We interested ourselves in identifying the different flags, and counting how many there were of each. We were of many na- tionalities but mostly British and Americans. Of course all were anx- Big World Events (Continuéd from page 7) province of Bessarabia where the Russian armies would hope to reap what promises to be an immense crop of wheat.

But when we reached the city all acknowledged that there were more British ships in the har- bor of Shanghai than all other na- tions put together, Next to the Union Jack came the flag of the Ris- ing Sun, and, strange to say, the de- cay of American shipping, for of the great concourse of ships there was only one flying the Stars and Stripes. In every port of the Far East which was visited, the same general the bigger became the consciousness within us that we belonged to an em- pire which was world-wide, and that we could not find any place however remote where the flag of Britain would not be seen and held in re- spect, gf Nor was that flag a meaningless symbol, While it was mainly the emblem of peaceful commerce, it was the sign of power and protection, Once in the city of Tamsui the Ja- panese were putting through new streets, and were rather summarily pulling down peoples' houses which stood in the way, and just giving them what remuneration they esti- mated the houses to be worth. The people were Chinese, newly conquer- ed by the Japanese; and while the higher officials tried to be just to them, the lower were sometimes pretty arbitrary. One day they struck a snag. A house owned by a Chinese woman stood in their way. She re- fused to accept their estimate of its worth. They were about to expro- priate and pull it down. She appead ed to the British Consul, elaiming to be a British subject, born in Hong Kong. "he Consul investigated, found her claim to be correct, and notified the Japanese authorities that cept with her consent. The Japanese recognized his authority without guestion, and the extension of that street was halted till they were ready to meet her on mutually agree- able terms. That poor Chine:e wo- man, who did not speak one word of English, who had never seen one foot of the British Empire except the city of Hong Kong, and who was now living under an alien flag, will find themselves mistaken, A |new complication 'has arisen in the recent widespread raids under the auspices of the Ulster government in that territory, This followed the cold blooded murder of a member of the Northern Parllament and resulted in the arrest of three hundred officers and members of the Irish Republican forces.
