Forcing the Dardanelles. One magnificent incident in connection with the fording of the Dardanelles is chronicled to-day by Reuter. A potly officer of the Buffren found that a six inch shell bad struck" the warship and had set some ammunition afire. He broke he scuttles cff the case- mant, opened the sea valvon and flooded the magazine. With trep idation be approached the com- mander, having acted without or ders, but was warmly congratu lated and mentioned in despatch es. Many another brilliant fest will be placed to the credit of the Jackies now knocking at the door of Constantinople and many alaa! will probably never be recorded. Still we may take it, progress is being made is indicated by the announcement of the Cunard Company.

Japan and the Alliance. With these facts in mind it becomes highly instrctive to see that there are now leaders of opinica in Japan who view the alliance as a serious impediment to the realisation of the dream of [“ Pan-Japaniem" in Asia- men who preach the doctrine that a commercial competitor is but one step removed from an enemy; and who are only too ready to accept without investigation any tale which may appear to serve the purpose of damaging theinfluence and prestige of Great Britain in the East. This public discussion of the Alliance by Japanese public- ista basa special significance at the present time when the sepirations of Japan in China ara widely regarded as being in conflict with her treaty engagements. Oneofthe definite objrots of that alliance is the preservation of the common interests of all Powers in Uhina by insuring the independence and integrity of that country and the principle of equal opportunities for the commerce and trade of all nations in Chios, Thus this Alliance is in the interests of all Powers alike, China included, and therefore any attack on that alliance carries a sinister signif loance from which the Japanese Government has, happily, emphat- ically dissociated itself.

treason. This strong statement ia backed up by the argument the "when a quarrel is for money, or for a strip of territory, one can make peace without moral loss. To make peace when an ideal is at stake is an abdication; even to think of it is to be falgo to the voics which tells us that mun is born for other things than to enjoy the moral and material heritage of his fathers," These statements are part of a letter written to Professor Falcinelli, prezident of the International Society for Franciscan Studies at Assisi, who had sent the eminent Frerehman a resolution in favour of peace which the council of the soiety had passed shortly before Christmas. Paul Sabatier, it is pointed out had a brother who fell at Gravelotte in 1870.
