The staff consists of Chinese officers, mostly trained in Japan, the director having had three years' training (as a naval officer) at Woolwich and Grecowich. When it was first established, the instructors were Japanese, but now only a few remain, as translators of text: books." Very funny indeed it is to those who "know their China to see how the old inborn dişlike and the newly-created jealousy will handiep the Jap." in China-even when be is an absoluta sine qua non" to the native, as

perfectly straight, and does his best to keep things so? still China is China "fora' that." But," having given some idea of the organization, cost, and composition of the "Lu-chün" already in being the writer must say something as to
its capacity for war as demonstrated in four, hard days work in the field. During these, wo
are told by the European experts present, “ibe Chinese Infantrymen showed great attention to
4 the work in hand, carefully following every ore der and availing themselves of every scrap of cover.when advancing, whilst control of each subaltern over his section of the line, and of the company commanders over their units, seemed absolute. The military experts, too, agreed that "a very high state of discipline existed," and that "the men showed intelligent appre. ciation of the task to be performed, and that the officers were extremely kean and had their men perfectly in hand."
Now, to the artillery (some 170 guns had been seen in action), it was said that "beller fire discipline could hardly ba conceived, the bringing up and handling of ammunition, the
3 drill and the control of the officers were all that could be desired. The mon showed great 3 intelligence, and their understanding of their work was indubitable. Finally, that in so far as mangenvres are capable of demonstrating Stoess for war in reality, it is undeniable that the personel of the artillery branch of the new 4 Chinese nimy is highly efficient."
