Boston. Just at this time, when the finest fleet ever assembled under one flag has started on its record-breaking voyage, it is interesting to record the passing of the last of the vessels that made up the squadron under command of Commodore Perry when he sailed into the Japanese harbor of Yedo in July, 1S53. "Queen of the fire vessels of the western barbarians," she was once called. Now she is to ba demolished. Exit the Saratoga! It is still a name to conjure with in far Japan. And in American history the stanch old sea fighter will be insep arably linked with Commodore Mat thew Calbraith Perry's epoch-making Irlp to what was then a land of mys teiy and of dreams. For that trip and the commeicial treaty signed there opened up the Japanese empire to the commerce of the world. Haltered and full of years, the grand war hulk has been lying dismantled at League Island navy yard. Xow she be longs to Thomas Hutler &. Co. of Bos ton. She will be taken to Philadel phia, wheie will he performed the last j-ad ntes of this former piide of the American navy. Only Seven Survivors. There are those who will mourn her with a personal loss. Seven men yet Jive who made that memorable trip with Perry in the fifties. .'11 but two The U.

He is an emeritus professor of Bangor's theological seminary, and is enjoying a rest from his labors after 3G years of faithful service. "When I finished my college course at Bowdoin I was in debt," said Dr. Sewall, in reminiscent vein. "1 saw a chance to satisfy my desire for the sea and pay off my debts at the same time, so 1 shipjted for a cruise on the Saratoga. She was then fitting out to go to the far east to relieve the ship Si. Mary's, which had been on that station several years. ""Wewere out there two years be fore Commodore Perry arrived. Wil liam S.

"The fleet arrived off the coast of Japan on the eighth day of July. 1S53. The lookouts at the masthead echoed through the fleets the rousing call. 'Land ho! We rushed on deck. There it was at last. A dark cloud on the northern horizon, still shrouded in mystery, still inspiring the imagina tion with an indefinable awe, just'as it had years ago in our studies at school. "Our squadron comprised two steam EXPLORED THE BLEAK NORTH. French Countess Traveled Far in In hospitable Country. Countess Mehereuc de St Pierre, of St. Brienc. province of Brittany, in France, has just returned from a lone ly three months trip that took her l.fiOO miles beyond civilization in the lar northern districts of British Amer ica. She went forth accompanied by only two Indian guides and penetrated to the sixtieth parallel, riding astride, tramping, raddling in light canoes, floating down treacherous, rock pick eted rapids in clumsy native barges, and for one eriod of two weeks see Jug no human being except her two Indian servants. "The Indians in thategion are very superstitious, very ungrateful, very in- dependent but very honest 1 in tited a chief to have luncheon with me. He refused. To eat in company with a woman would degrade him; he would lose caste with his tribe. In another part of the country I had some Indians and their squaws along on an frigates and two sloops of war. For equipment, we mustered 61 guns and 977 officers and men quite a respect able force for those times. "Such a warlike apparition in the bay, small as it was, created a tre mendous sensation. A Japanese writer said of our arrival: "The popular com motion in Yeddo wsk beyond descrip tion. The whole city was in an up roar. In all directions were seen mothers flying with children in their arms and men with mothers on their backs.' "We were quite unconscious of all this confusion in a city of more than 1,200,000 souls. We had no Idea we had frightened the empire so badly, as the capital was 40 or 50 miles away from our anchorage. As we proceed ed up the harbor, boats fled away from us as though in mortal fear. "By the time we were well anchored and shipshape the city officials took heart. Swarms of picturesque man darins came off to challenge the strange arrivals and to draw around the fleet the customary cordon of guard boats. They even tried to make fast their boats to our ships. "This began to look like being in custody. The American ambassador had not come to Japan to be put under sentries, lie notified the mandarins that his vessels were not pirates and need not he watched. They pleaded Japanese law. He replied with Ameri can law. They still insisted. He noti fied them that if the beats were not instantly withdiawn he would open his batteries and sink them. That was entirely convincing. The guard boats stood not on the order of their going." "The lire vessels of the western bar barians are coming to defile the holy country," said priest and soldier to One another. Japs Cazcd in Wcntier. I The boatmau at his sculls and the junk sailor at the tiller gazed in won der at the i ainted ships of the west ern world. The farmer, standing knee deep in the ooze of the rice fields, paused to marvel. Had the barbarians harnessed vol- S. Saratoga. canoes? With wind blowing in their teeth and sails furled, the monsters curled the white foam at their front, while their black throats vomited sparks and smoke. To the gazers at a distance, as they looked from their village on the hilltops, the whole scene seemed a mirage created by the breath of clams. Such, their child hood's beliefs taught them, must be the case. Boats dashed here and there about the harbor, like a flock of frightened gulls. They fled. Then paused, to see how far behind the strange visions were now. Surely they were doomed, for there closer and closer plowed the great ships, and no sail caught the wind to propel them. In Yeddo there was terror worse than death. Her 1.250.000 souls knew the fear of supernatural things. With alarmed faces the people thronged to the shrines to pray. They hastily packed their, valuables to send off to the houses of distant friends, or to bury. In the roiithrvn suburbs, thou sands of homes wsie emptied of their contents and of the sick and ?ed. All who could lelt to go to dwell with their relatives in the interior. Couriers on horseback had first brought details of the "calamity" by land. Junks and scull boats 'from Uraga arrived hourly at Shinagawa, and foot-runners bearing dispatches ranted in the government offices. Commodore Perry had prepared carefully for this visit. He had read much about Japan: he knew what its resouices were, so far as they were known at all. by foreigners; he knew their quaint customs and the value they S2t upon ceremony. Therefore he was determined to out-Chesterfield the Japanese themselves. When the repiesentative of the Sho- expedition. But the Indians would not permit me to shoot any game. j One of the traditions of the tribe, left by some old medicine man long since dead, was that if a woman were ever permitted to shoot moose or elk game would become scarce and the squaws would become powerful and master the men. I offered them ten dollars for every shot I might make, bat money was no inducement "All up through that wild, rich coun try, everywhere I saw Indians. I never saw a man who would do any manual work without having his gloves on. The men have as soft hands as a woman. The squaws pre pare the skins and fashion the mocca sins, but the men do the hunting and boating. Each sex does its own work." Conducive to a Beautiful Union. With a young pair in any degree harmoniously fashioned by nature, nothing can conduce to a more beau tiful union than eagerness of the maid en to learn and of the youth to teach. Out of it there arises a relationship as fundamental as it is agreeable. Goethe. gun came, with all ceremony, to treat with him, be was received by Lieut Contee as the commodore's represen tative. The commodore himself could not be seen. In spite of all the wily oriental could do, the American am bassador remained aloof, 'and im pressed the Japanese oflcial mightiLr as a great man by this very exclusive ness. When seeking trade, the Dutch had been willing to sink dignity and to treat with anyone. Therefore they were pigs, reasoned the Japanese. Surely these western "hairy barbari ans'. must be the same. When they fonnd otherwise, messengers were kept running at breakneck speed be tween the Sho-gun's city and the seat of the mikado's government At last the bunio, who had' been able to see only the "admiral's" subor dinates, because he was not of suffi cient importance to gaze upon the august features of the ambassador, announced that two daimios had been appointed to receive the mysterious papers so carefully guarded in caskets, which the "king of the power that had whipped Mexico" desired to send to the "Lord of Creation." "Some three miles from our anchor age," says Dr. Sewall, "a little semi circular harbor makes in on the west ern side of the bay. At the head of it stood the village or hamlet of Kuri hama. That was the spot selected for the meeting of the western envoy and the imperial commissioners. And there the Japanese erected a tempor ary hall of audience. "It was a memorable scene. The two frigates steamed slowly down and anchored off the harbor. How big, black and sullen they looked to the natives! Our little flotilla of 15 boats landed under cover of their guns. ? "We were not quite 300 all told, but every one was in full uniform and armed to the teeth. The commodore had given orders to make as magnifi cent an appearance as we could, for the purpose of impressing a people who lay much stress on show. Yet our little body of men were few in number to confront 5.000 native troops drawn up on the beach to receive us. Outshone the Japanese. "Crowds of curious spectators lined the housetops and grouped on the hills in the rpar to witness our landing. Radiant uniforms, trappings and en signs were everywhere but we com pared favorably. Commodore Perry had, in fact, outshone the Japanese. "The Japanese regiments seemed to have ben cut otit of rainbows and sunsets. But if they were lively, their officers were not For they sat in silent dignity on camp stools in front of the lines. "Xot until our force had disem barked and formed on the beach did the commodore show himself. No Japanese had seen him up to that time. He had remained to them a mysterious presence, who would only appear when the duly qualified ambas sadors of the emperor came to treat with him and they must be princes of the blood. "As our lines formed, the commo dore stepped into his barge. Instantly the fleet was enveloped in great crowds of smoke. The guns were thundering out a salute that echoed among the hills back of the, village. In all the negotiations he had played the Japa nese people's own game and had en veloped himself in mystery. "Thus was not child's play. It was not an assumption of pomp inconsist ent with republican simplicity. Com modore Peiry was dealing with an ori ental potentate according to oriental ideas; and results proved his sagacity. At this time Commodore Perry was 59 years old, a man of splendid physique and commanding presence. He was the right kind of man for America to send on such an errand to such a peo ple. "Within the hall sat the Japanese commissioners on chairs. The imperi al commissioners were Princes Idzu and Iwami, and they were surrounded by their kneeling suite. The vacant seats opposite were taken by the com modore and his staff. He entered the pavilion escorted by two gorgeously comparisoned blacks, preceded by two richly uniformed pages bearing the precious caskets containing the official papers to the emperor.

They laid them on the scar let coffer. "The imperial commissioners were much impressed. They had never seen black men before except in their stage plays, when actors used burnt cork. Therefore, they estimated that this 'admiral.' as 'they knew him, must be a man of supreme power. Prince Iwami handed to the interpreters a formal receipt for the documents. "The commodore announced that he would return in the spring for his re ply. After a further brief conversation the conference closed, having lasted not more than 20 minutes. It had been witnessed by not more than 50 or SO persons of both the countries engaged. Yet that short meeting was to lead to the opening of Japan." The actual landing took place on July 14. 1853, and is commemorated by a single shaft of granite rising 33 feet Into the air. placed on the spot where Perry landed from his ships. This monument was erected in 1901. The treaty was not concluded and signed until March of 1854. when Per ry returned with a greatly increased fleet to get his answer. At first the Japanese hqld out "that no American women should be brought to Japan." Commodore Perry informed them that if such a clause were put in he would be afraid to return to America. There after all was good humor, the clause S was stricken out and the treaty of commerce was signed, throwing open the ports of Shimoda and Hakodate. CUMXOXPJ2S MCJQEGJSy Commodore Perry's Record. Many consider Commodore Matthew Caibraith Perry to have been, a great er naval man than his more famous brother. Commodore Oliver Perry. In fact, the two are often confused. Be sides opening up Japan to American trade and to western civilization, he was the greatest naval educator of t his time. His life may be briefly summed up as follows: 1 While yet a lad he was a naval officer in the war of 1812. 2 He chose the location of the first free black settlement in Liberia. 3 He was the father of the steam navy. 4 He first demonstrated the effi ciency of the ram as a weapon of of fence in naval warfare. 5 He founded the naval apprentice ship system. 6 He was leader of the campaign to extirpate the foreign slave trade on the coast of Africa. 7 He commanded in 1847 the largest squadron which had ever as sembled under the American flag. This was in the gulf of Mexico. 8 He opened Japan to the world. The Perry family furnished more na val officers to the United States than any other American family, with one exception. The sturdy commander of the Saratoga was survived by three daughters, one of whom became the wife of August Belmont, the multi millionaire of New York. && didLe&Z 4t0t cuoraCL 4?3 Japanese Treaty. disposal of Mr. Carnegie's holdings he drew one for 4.781,754 2s Sd.
