Moreover, these two provincan have their own causes for localised earthquakes, so, that they head the list in the number of great earth quakes. Rikkien, Rikachu, Mutsu, Nemuro and Kushiro provinces are alan subject to the Influence of submerina" earthquakes. The origin, however, does not’extend further south than Boshu Peninsula.
The shape of Japan (excluding Formosa) can be considered as an arc, with centre in the Sea of Japan. This shape greatly affects the HARTMANNSTON RED HAND distribution of earthquakes in this country.

JAPANESE EARTHQUAKES.
AN INTERESTING ARTICLE BY PROFESSOR OMORI
THE RUMOURS OF A GREAT SHOCK IN THE NEAR FUTURE.
Professor Omori has contributed a very interesting artit le to the po apropos of the rumours that a great earthquake is due in Japan this year:-
The inside of the arr, vit, the provinces that face the Sea of Japan, are frequently visited by localized earthquakes, while the outer side of the arc, facing the Pacific Ocean, is subject to general earthquakes. The latter are often ac- companied by tidal waves, which have more destructive power than earthquakes. Mino, Shimazuke, and Iwashiro in the central part of fapan frequently ate the seat of severe localised earthquakes, but their neighbouring provinces, Kodzuke and Hida are conspicuously free from
grent earthquakes, as are also the provinces of
Chugoku.
When a great earthquake occurs in the sea it gives a powerful shock to the sea water, and causes a tidal wave. The history of Japan shows that there have been 24 tidal waves of

Comparing day with night in frequency of earthquakes, out of 10 recent earthquakes 40 occurred between 6. p.nl, and ridnight, and 28 between 6 am and noon. So earthquakes occur more frequently at night than in the
day-time.
In Japan, the scientific observation of earth quakes dates from 1876, and the number of observatories and report stations reached 1,660 at the end of 1901. According to the reports furnished by these observatories and stations, 17,750 earthquakes occurred in Japan in the course of 13 years from 1885 to 1997. The number of earthquakes for 1896 was 472, the smallest of all, those years; and that for 1894 was 2,729 and hended the list. The average per year was 1,365. In Tokio alone 1,485
· earthquakes occurred in the course of 26 years from 1896 to 1901. The smallest number was -31 for the year 188, and the largest was 225 for the year 1896. The yearly average was 96. THE OREAT HISTORICAL EARTHQUAKES

On October 28, 1891, at 6,37 am the pro-wind. vinces of Vino and Owari were the scene of a holocaust. The shock was felt almost all over Japan, except north of Sendai. The area of the vibration covered two-thirds the whole of Japan, extending about 100,000 square miles, The vibration extended to a distance of 320 miles from its centrs to that the area of vibra, tion, on land and sea, must have be`n about 337,500 square miles or twice the whole area of Japan The area of the heaviest shock extend- ed from Nobi plain to Fukui, In those dis- tricks, these occurred mountain-slides, and sub. merciona, upheavals and fissures of the earth;
mudy water spouted from unexpected places,
no house or bridge remained intact, and logses of life or limb were numberless, The area of the beaviest shock was about 18,000 square miles, ex'ending over Mine, Owari, Fchizen Kaga,, Chmi, and Ise. The severity of the shock was about the same as that of the
great earthquake of Takin in 1855, and even saverer at such places as Nenya. There were towns and villages in Mino and Owari where not a single knuse remained standing through the shock. In certain villages, all the
