One of the results of the Chicego Rail- way Exposition which will be hailed with delight by travelers on railroads where the soft coals are used for fuel is the dis- covery of an engine that will burn coke, and thus avoid the nuisance of smoke and soot. The engine is the one that the Reading Railroad company had on exhi- bition at Chicago, nm{ as constructe for burning the refuse of the anthracife coal mines. The test with coke was made on the Chicago, Burlington and Quiney s ad, when it was demonstrated that with this fuel— which is the most econominal that can be used by western roads—the engine can be run” without any greater labor or in- convenicnee than are caused by the use of soft coals. In Chicago, where the soot and smoke of (]lc sngines have become such a nuisance that an inance has been passed preventing engines using such fucl from entering the city, the Reading engine would prove of great value. —— en.

Renewed complaint is made of the growing evil of desertions from the mili- tary service of the United States. There nothing in the statistics, nothing in the reports of military commander: afford a clue to the trouble. It is clear that army service is no longer to the enlisted n what it was when private soldiers enlisted and re-enlisted as long as life en- dured. Officers of the highest rank have thought it worth while to discuss this question from the ofticial point of view. The officers are at fault. ~ They themselyes unable to fathomthe w if it be a mystery. The Times ceived a statoment from a private soldier who deserted from one of the fronteir posts, and who asks that the circum- stances in his case shall be considered as heing generally true of enlisted men on the fronti He deserted for what seemed to him good and suflicientreason Being denied the privilege of appealing to a court of last resort, this man appeals to the unprejudiced opinion of his fellow citizens. His description, let us say, is John Smith, private nnl\llu', company L, Twenty-sixth Infantry. Ho was brought before a court-martial, on charge of do- sgption, at Kort. Ginger, Monty } o ritory. Private Suith, then, enlisted “in New York, April 1, 1882, to serve five years in the infantry army of the regulu army. Ho was forwarded, with other recruits, to his regiment, stationed at Fort Ginger, Montana Territory, and he reported for duty May 1, 1882 When he came be- foro the recruiting offlcer in New York ho was shown a poster which stated his pay. Ho was asked a fow questions, was ~ ex- amined and accepted, and took the re- quired oath, He entored the service as soldier, to do a soldier’s duty. He not informed that he would ‘be required to work at his trade, which was that of a carpenter, or to act as Iaborer. Had he known this he would not have enlisted, for he could get better wages working fewer hours, as carpenter or laborer, than he could as n private soldier, Neither was Private Smith informed that the duties of an enlisted man_included wood- chopping, hay-cutting, bridge-building, road-making, and other employments in- cidental to the life of a common neither expressed nor implied in the tract which was entered into betwe John Smith and the ited States, al- though Private Smith says that he under- stood that in time of war circumstancy might require extra and unusual sery Smith enlisted in a period of peace. But during the first year of Private Smith's service he cut hay, chopped wood for post consumption, hvfln:ll to build a bridge, made and mended roads, and was on special duty as carpenter in - the quar- termaster’s department, While thus em- ployed he was put over several civilian employes, as a good workman, to super intend the erection of barracks, His reg- ular pay as an infantryman was $13 por month, to which was added an extra al- lowance of 89.10 per month, The citi zons working under him wore paid 875 per month, ~ While on these different ate Smith overdrew his allowance of clothing, his work making this necessar: If he had performed military duty this would not have happened, but instead of overdrawing he would have heen entitled at his discharge to an allowance of nearly $100 in licu of clothing teen months of his service, Private Nm'll performed about four months' duty real soldier. chopping, rond-making a common laborer, wis inspected by the inspector-generd Private Smith was ordered to fall - out of the ranks as unable to perform properly the manual of arms or the evolutions of the company.

Is it surprising that Private Smith, at the first convenient opportunity, ran away? Is it any wonder that other enlisted men who have been employed as barbers, menials, pot-walloners, and servants have degerted now and again? Private Smith's story is a true one. He might have said that, a8 an American citizen, he knew that when two parties enter into a contract by which one of the parties binds himself to ohsorve and carry out_certain wules, and where a penalty “is afixed to his violation of his part of the covenant, the departure from the terms of tho #bout two wecks since and it is said he has fied. ontract by the other party will, if brought to the notice of competent autho- trolli almogh ‘l\,-ml‘u i, from Nt the Chincse mml During the fif- | The rest was spent in thd | When his company | rity, effoot the abrogation of the €ontract and the ponalty. .

The ehorr trees of Mount Arashi, in Kioto, were transplanted from hore, and even the two miles of plum troes of Tankigase, though almost as widely celebrated, are considered inferior to them. But it is o poor place in Japan that is not famous or some natural beauty, Biwa luke, near Kioto, has no fewer than eight dis- tinguished keauties, and it may be ave red that the ingenuity with which the catalogue is made up would find som thing to admire in any situation, Peo- ple go to Ishiyama, on this lake to see the autumn moon, to Hirayama (yama mountain) to admire the snow scenes, to Seta for the sunset, to Mudera to hear the evening chimes, to Yabase to sce the boats sail by, to A v when thero is a bright sky with a breezo, such a conjune- tion being pleasanter than anywhere in Japan ; Kutada is famou of wild geese, and nothing else to brag of, beauty of its *ainy nights. It is this fanciful way of regarding nature and dwelling upon particular effects that has developed the peculiar style of land-scape ;_;uri{nuing in minia- ture that is common to China and Jay; For this a sharp and poetic observation of nature is necessary, and a whimsical determination on to get around her ordi- nary laws, and to produce something more extravagant than her wildest vaga- ries. The gardener of the extreme Orient is a great follow to mako use of honey- combed rocks, the hollows of which he fills with flowering plants. If he cannot get real rocks from some neighboring seacoast he has them made of baked clay at the nearest pottery kiln. Out of u cupful of water, so to speak, he will have a stream with a cascade, a lake with islands and a bridge or an arm of the sea with its junks and rocky coasts. He de- lights m old trees, dead or living, and turns them to all sorts of uses. At Shimo Zebaka there is a hollow keyal tree of immense age, and 27 feet in circumference. The hollow is the result of artistic processes, by which a tree has been trained to grow around a well which is sunk between its roots. At Nara, the ancient capital, a huge old tree trunk is shown, on the dead ich o whole groveof came- , wisteria and other bushes are The art of dwarfing trees is practised with great success.
