SOME PHASES OF RECENT JAPANESE LITERATURE.
Extraordinary as are the signs of change and evolution revealed in the recent pagos of Japan's history, not least remarkable, writes Yono Noguchi, is the revolution displayed in the substance and manner of Japanese literaturo, Thero could be no more sudden chango,' he states, "than has occurred since the restoration (1867), especially during the last fifteen years.' He namos a book called Seiyo Jizo (↑ Affairs of Western Countries') by the great educator Fukuzawa, and Nakamura's translations of Samuel Smiles'a 'folf-Help,* and of John Stuart Mill's Liberty,' as the harbingers of the modern literaturo, Kant and Herbert Spencer, he says, were known before any English grammar was introduced." We quote further from Mr Noguchi's record of this Western literary invasion (in The Critic, New York) :---

brethren" and their ideas. Nansui Sudo appeared with his Ladies of New Style' in 1887. The book was a shour absurdity. It was a wild exposition of Western pro- gross. It inspired a rovolution among Japanese ladyhood. The heroine was in the van of the progressive movement. Sho taught that labor was sacred. She became a dairymaid. (How now it was if you con- sider that we did not use milk in' those day) Her favorite reading was Spencer's
• Education. And the other character was an adherent of Arabi Pasha, who, after his leador's defeat by General Wolseley, was banished from Egypt, and took service with a Japanese gentleman. In the book there was a balloon ascent and a dynamite er. plosion. It would be plain in what direction the Japanese intellectual “taste of those days was aspiring when such a book met with a mighty reception.'

Advancing public taste, however, Mr Noguchi tolls us, soon outgrew the crude work of Nansui, and the polished writing of Prof. Yuzo Tubouchi, 'theunquestion.. ed dean of the modern Japanese literature," cano into favor. He, too, encourages the * Western idea,' About the same time. Me Naguchi states. Taketaro Yamada introduc ed colloquial literature, in face of the fact that there was nothing moro despised in these days than colloquialism.''
A reaction, however, set in between the years 1891 and 1896, and there were signs, saya the writer, that people-were-growing tired of the Western adapters. This period saw a rovival of the old Genroku literature. The reaction, it appears, was against the weak native imitations of Western works,
and not against translations. Another phase of the literary situation Mr Noguchi describes as follows :--
'Up to 1895 novel-writing was not look. ed upon as a respectable profession. The public would not permit it to be called gentleman's work. It was regarded as an unpardonable diversion of unworthy prodį- gics. The authors were accused of being a demoralizing influence. However, the fault may be with them, since they in- dulged, often provokingly, in the depiction of the lower class of women. The geisha was their favorite heroine.'
Japanese authors have developed on the commercial if not on the artistic side. We read of them :-
"They could not make a living by writing only twenty years ago, but to-day they are on the fair road to prosperity, the public demand for literature of any sort having tremendously increased. They will put a price on their writing, counting the pages, if not the words, like Americans. Nearly all the young students turned to writers at. once. Hence, the overflow of novels in 1899 and 1900. Not one in a hundred had
literary morit too often, alast they verged on the coarse and the scandalous. The books were hardly pictures of human life.*
The result, says Mr Noguchi, is that for the last three years the public has been denouncing the native novel and turning immeasurable superiority of which they to translations of Western fiction, the admit. Last year, we are told, some fifty books, including works of Dumas, Hugo, Daude George Eliot, Hawthorne, and Maeterlinck were translated into Japanese. It is interesting to learn that the feminino alemont is practically absent from the Japanese reading public, Mr Noguchi states that our Japanese woman rarely reads.-Lite ury Ingest..

CHINESE LABOUR QUESTION,
Letter from Mr Balfour.
The Prime Minister sent the following reply to a letter he received from Mr Sydney Buxton, M.P. :—
* 10, Downing-stroot, Whitchall, S.W., May 19, 1904.
'Dear Buxton,-What I assorted in my
speech at the Albert Hall was that the British Guians and the South African
Urdinson did not differ from each other
in any single particular, which makes the difference between slavery and freedom. Te does not appear to me that anything stated in your letter traverses this view, Nobody has over asserted that the two systems were identical. What we have Asserted is that if the British Guiana
Regulations be cousistont with freedom,
it is proposterous to allege that the South"
African Regulations institute slavery.
'That in some respects the South African Regulations are more favourable to the Indent pred labourer than the British Guiano Raynlations.

waterline yachts are the order of the day, as shown by the racing between the Neola and the Feetremor. The 70-footers made good racing, and a boat of 75 feet water line is what Sir Thomas Lipton wants.
According to the Herald's Clyde corre spondent, there is a feeling on the other side that four months' delay on the part of the New York Yacht Club to answering bir Thomas Lipton was a bit too long. From what can be learned on the inside there will be no mace next year, unless the parties compromise.
Sir Thomas Lipton wants the New York Yacht Club to give way, but there seems to be little chance for it.
The New York,Yacht Club holds the strong position. It has defended the cup for over fifty years, and has been liberal in its terms with foreign challenges. The club members say it is asking too much to bar the Reliance. There can be Do doubt, even should the match fall through, that the New Yorkers will be upheld, should they insist on putting the Reliance in trial races.
There are thousands, however, who would like to see a 70-foot challenger built under a different rule from that which has con- trolled for years.
With the parties hold ing their present ground, however, it is quite uncertain when the next match for the America's Cup will be raced.
two little hooded incandescent lights-one red and the other green-show themselves upon the head of the two tiny masts rising from the back of the torpedo, now 500 yards away. The protecting hoods shield the glimmer of these lights from the front, so that they cannot possibly be seen by the enemy.
Flashing the torpedo's little red and green lights orery few moments to make from its course, the operator sends it ahead sure that the torpedo has not deviated at full speed. The next minute will tell whether the venture was to be successful or not.
Suddenly a vibratory movement of the connecting wire teds him that the torpedo has struck the network of steel rings hung all around the battleship to keep], such things as torpedoes away.
To the torpedo man the next five seconds Boom endless. Has the torpedo failed or broken down! If so, death will claim him as its only victim, and the officers and men on the battleship will escape.
The answer comes in a vibratory wave passing through the water at fearful volo. city. Simultaneously the big battleship laps half out of the water in a blazo of lights.
