the Park, Nagasaki, Japan.
There is an air of the kindergareten about Japanese life and customs, so many things are on a childish scale. In the parks and gardens the lakes are scarcely large enough for fairies; the rivers and mountains are little larger than those on a good -sized relief map, "Near at hand they rear a delicious little tea-house and sit there sipping ridieulously small doses of sake, from thimble-like cups, nibbling such tiny biscuits as might satisfy the appetite of a butterfly, smoking microscopic pipes of brass and bamboo, which hold about three whiffs, and generally thus lookinfg upon life through a reversed telescope, and making delicate and friendly fun out of all its aspect" (Arnold.) There is music, too, at the tea-house; here is one of the songs, composed by an American officer: I strive to make love, but in vain, in vain. My language, I know, is not plain, not plain. Whenever I try, She says, "Go men nasai Watashi wakarimasen-masen." She plays om the soft samosen, samisen. She sings me a song now and then- and then. And when I go away She sweetly will say, "Sayonara! Do please come again -again." "Deign honorably to excuse me, but I do not understand." Keystone View Company. 14002-Osua Temple, Nagasaki, Japan
(60) Great Asia, mother of gods and men! All the religions of the world that are above mere fetishisms are of Asiatic origin. Of these Japan has two, the native Shintoism and imported Buddhism,-and now a vital and aggressive Christianity. Buddhism and Shintoism are not strictly exclusive of each other. Most Japanese are Shinoto-Buddhists. For a thousand years Buddhist priests performed the services at the Shinto temples, and Buddist architecture was largely adopted in building them. Shintoism, the primitive religion of Japan, is a compound of nature-worship and ancestor-worship,- the latter feature probably an early import from China. The Sun-Goddess is the chief deity, and beneath her are gods and goddesses of the wind, the ocean, fire of mountains, streams and trees,- 800 myriads of deities. This religion dose not concern itself with man's moral conduct or future destiny. The principal temple at Nagasaki is the Osuwa, known as the Bronze Horse Temple from a votive offering standing in the courtyard. A beautiful garden is attached to this shrine. The trees recall the soft beauty of verdure of Killarney and south Irish coast. From Nagasaki to Kamakura, near Tokio, is 600 miles east and north. Published Underwood & Underwood (100)-3939-Coaling the Paoifio Mail S.S, "Shiberia" at fortified Nagasaki, Japan You are Iooking from the pier up the towering side of one of the great ocean-liners plying between here and San Francisco, a journey of 4,800 miles taking from fourteen to eighteen days. This is the way the coaling for the voyage is accomplished. Those lighters that you see drawn up alongside the Siberia have brought supplied from a great colliery and these women and girls are loading up the vessel ready for her start at the appointed hour. Certain ones keep certain places on those ladders, while others down here in the lighters fill the coal baskets. The full baskets are passed from hand to hand up the ladders and into the bins, the emptied baskets are returned by another set of girls and so a steady upward stream of coal is kept flowing the bins like water from an old fashioned chain-pump. The towels the women wear over their heads are a valuable protection against some part of the dirt and dust of their trade, but they are not peculiar to this line of work. All Japanese peasant women wear such towels as head-cover- ings when engaged in out-of-door work. You can see in the distanee just a glimpse of the lofty hills surrounding the harbor. You remember this is one of the best fortified harbors ln Japan. Her war vessels come in here for coal, as well as peaceful merchant men, and the coal ing of Japan's armored l vessels means a serious business. Some of the finest war-ships now afloat are coaled here at Nagsaki.lf you refer to a map on the Mikado's empire you see that this haven is only about two hundred mlies from the Korean port of Fusan.

You are looking from the balcony of a hotel. The harbor entrance is behind you and off at your left. The railroad connecting this charming harbor with other parts of the island of Kyushu runs up between the mountains and then divedes into varioius branches. You see part of the town over there on the farther shore, and other districts are behind you and off at your right; as the place grows, through uts increasing business, houses are building higher and higher up to on the hills above the original settlement. There are now more than 100.000 residents here., including a great many foreigners engaged in trade. This , you remenber, is the fiest Japanese port reached by streamers from Europe, through Yokohama is nearer for vessels from America. Every sort of craft can be seen here at one time or another; just now there is a large representation of these little sampans, used for light freighting. Those trim stream-launches are common here too. Over at the west side of the harbor are ship-yards where the Japanese temselves built first-class mail streamships of 6,000 tons and over. Merchant vessels of all descriptions and ocean liners bringing passengers from all around rhe world put in here for coal and the process of coaling is unique. Vessls are loaded from lighters by crewws of young women, passing the fuel up a ship's side in small baskets. At the present time (1904) this is of course one of the most important ports in all the Mikado's Empire. Fusa on the coast of Korea, is only about two bundred miles away N.N.W., beyoud those mountains at the left. There are strong military defences on these hills. (See Seidmore's Jinrikisha Days in Japan" for accounts of popular festivities celebrated here. See also Ransome's " Japan in Transition" and Scherer's "Japan Today " for poimts regarding nation politics and business relations witj the rest of the world.)

"Nagasaki is historic ground. Here it was that the Portugese merchants and missinarise landed. Here it was that Japanese became acquainted with Europeans and Christianity, and flrearms, and other things unknown to Chinese civilization. Here the Dutch had their factory, and here all business with the outside world was carried on for many years. Here Ckristianity was extripated. " In the bay there is a rock called Pappenburg, the " Tarpean Rock of Japanease history." from which, it is said many hundred native Cristians, who would not abjure their faith, were buried into the depths below. Nagasaki is one of the mosy beautiful hatbor in the world. It is thoroughly sheltered, and to a person inside it appears completely land-locked. It affords anchorage for ships of all classes. The entrance is somewhat intricate, and is not more than one-fourth of mile wide. A notable and interesting feature of this harbor is the coaling of steamers by gangs of young giels who pass small baskets of coal from hand to hand with amazing rapidity. It is said that one of the C.P.R. steamers has had 1.360 tons of coal put on board in this way in four hours. 506 Entrance to Nagasaki Harbour Harbor. Nagasaki、Japan. Sold only by Universal View Co.
