The position of anchored or fixed mines is known and chart. ed. Anchored.mines are trawled for with a special weighted trawi wire that catches the moorings. At the Hague Conference in 1007 it was proposed to probibit the practice of mining, on the grounds of its inhumanity and the danger to neutral shipping. The late Baron von farschall, the German, delegate, declared that no country was superior to his own in the septiment of bumanity, but the practical outcome of his argument was that Germany could not forego the use of this weapon in

Japanese Settlers...

Since it wae annexed to Japan, Korea has attracted an increasing number of emigrants from Japan, artly no doubt on account of its close proximity, but more so be- an of the opportunities it offers ander the new regime for lucrative employment. The country is showing wonderfal progress. In five years the trade in merchandise at the open porte- has doubled and the Japanese authorities are encouraging the development of the resources of the country in all directions in a manner which commande unstint- ed admiration. The same zeal · for progress is shown in the leased territory of Kwantung, but it is not shown to the same extent ia Formosa. These territories owe their present state of develop- ment to the industry and com- mercial sagacity of the Japanes9 Bettiere, encouraged and support ed as they are to the falles: extent by Government, and as the potentialities of these territoriem are revealed and are made better known to the people of Japan through the in-trumentality of such an organisation as that recently created under very in- fluential auspices, it will doubt- less be found that the over- population difficulties which are considered. t> be threatening Japan will be solved in a manner rautually satisfactory to the in

nation.

Patriotism of British Workmen. The way in which all olas:es of the nation are answering the call. to duty in the presont crisis forms a most pleasing feature in an. otherwise gloomy state of affairs.

From Home papers wo bavo al- ready seen that the non-fighting element of our population com- menced well and that every man ia ourying out steadfastly the work ontrusted to his care. All workers' differences have been. eet aside for the present, in view of the dangers which lie ahead. If proof were needed of the pat- riotism which at the present joncture animates all classes of the British community, it would be found in the engerners with which men of all oralts are troop- ing from smaller yarde for com plating in the shortest time possible all units for our fleet now in hand in the latter Employers and the leadera shipyard trade uniong constant communication with the object of expediting all important work.
