r Sk i J ram III By PROF. FREDERICK STARR he Caves Less than two hours by rail bmugbt 08 to Konosu. from which point we took basha. A basha Is an ugly one horse wagon, with a wooden cover; passengers enter from the rear by means of a step; the driver sits on a front seat: two seats run lengthwise of the body of the vehicle, each suf ficient for three medium-sized Jap anese: six passengers, then, is the supposed and Intended limit of ca pacity, and for comfort they should be little passengers. The basha was waiting close by the station, two pas sers already in their seats The driver had a load of freight with him In front, and when we stepped in he started promptly on the six or seven mile drive that lay before him. We ourselves were bound for the famous caves live miles from Konosu villajje. and a little before the terminus ol the basha line We had gone no great distirtice before we picked up two more passengers, and our little wagon was iiiore than comfortably filled We rode out through a level country occu pied by rice fields. It is the time of rice harvest In all the little fields men, uotmn and children were busy Hor.ses wne being brought in. loaded down with sheaves of the yellowed graiu In jards about houses and out houses shi.eJis were sptead out to dry. llaiidluis of the loaded stalks were taken and drawn through coarse metal combs to separate the grains: these still In the husk were fuither cleaned by flailing with flails quite like those of fcluiope of a hundred years gone by. Two or three or more persons thresl d in unison or alternately, and a pretty sight it was to see the move ment of the taliing instrument and to note the rhythm. When it bad accomplished ha!f Its iour.se. the basha stopped lor its iiduav rest. An old uom.-in brought out a tabako-bon at which the pasFcn gers m:xht warm their hands or light their cigarettes.

It is perhaps 100 to 150 feet in height. Chamberlain says that t fa "a gray, tufaceous sandstone." which we are in no position to deny. It is soft, especially when moist and cot exposed to the open air: It is probable that it Is easily excavated by means of a cutting Instrument knife, or even spade. The cliff pre sents Itself in two slightly separated laces exposed to the midday sun: that is, facing southward. Where dry and 'ong exposed the material is almost chalky white and nearly hard. At the base and on the summit of the ridge and on the s'opes beyond the exposed cliff faces there Is a growth of pines sprinkled with maples, the latter of which were In fine color ing There is comparatively little diversity In the caves They have rectangular openings ranging fiom 1'A te :t feet or so In height and of somewhat lesser breadth. Very commonly there Is a ledge or platform preceding the doorway and excavated from the mas itself: passing through the little door, one finds himself in a small rectangular vaulted chamber; the floor, level with the bottom or the entrance doorway, forms usually a narrow aisle running from the front o the rear of the cave; on either side of it there is a platform or bed cf the original rock some eight Inches to a foot higher than the floor: these platfoif-s are usually bordered by a nan o or margin li to 2 inches wide i above their general level. While this form may perhaps be con sidered typical many cf the caves hav. but one platform or bed instead of two: a very few have three, the third transverse witn reference to the others and at the rear of the a;art meiit. Of course, where there is but a single platform-bed the flooring of the central aisle is extended over the re maining section of the room. The UB intended for bedB or sleeping- places They are curiously like the Japanese tokonoma. If. as has been claimed, the Japanese nam "toko noma" means a sleeping-place it would not be Inappropriate to apply the term directly to these curious con structions While we agree complete ly with Tsubol in his idea that these little caves are sleeping-places, we are by no means equally convinced that they were made for or by a pre Ainu population From the caves to the highroad ts a matter of five miuutes walk At a midway point is another curious and interesting object. Whatever may be tbe material of the ridge in which tbe caves occur, a neighboring ridge is' composed of calcareous material with I flims nodules scattered through it caretaKer. and the place la sadly neg lected The shed before the altar contains Indeed some curious olives. among them a great board on which are represented in brilliant colors and poor art the heads of something like 300 horses, each accompanied by a written name. Why these horses should be here represented by a votive we cannot say. but interesting surmises might be framed On either side of the supporting cobwork there are cavities within the limestone rock. One ot them is directly under tbe shrine itself The other has been rut into the opposite wall of the rock cleft diagonally through to the natural front face of the ridge. In both these cavities there are today ranged great numbers of little figures of tbe kind ly goddess. They make a strange Im pression of loneliness here In their chilly, unsunned, neglected caves. Some modern genius Is developing a curious Idea in tbe case of this lime cliff. At present passageways and rooms are being excavated in It There la a main entrance several feet in width and height, rectangular in form, and developed to represent the doorway of a rather imposing edifice which opens directly into a fair'y large room cut In the solid rock. This room is decorated with urns and vases left in the cutting. Near by. a small er room, also rectangular, has a plat form, table, jars and vases, all com ing from the original rock mass: it also opens to the outside world, but by a much narrower and less impor tant doorway. The two rooms are conceded at their rear by a narrow passage cut through the living rock, rom the large room other hallways havr been begun, and apparently the plan is to develop in this rlace a series of carefully made rooms with furnishings all from the living rock. So far as we could learn of this room, the place will be used, and has been used already, as a social hall or res taurant. Is it not curious how an old idea affects all fo'lowing time? Unques tionably the shrine of Kwannon in its rocky cleft and the groups of Kwan non figures In the caves below have been suggested by the old-time cav erns. Had they not been, thu strange idea of tbe religious founders would scarcely have been given birth: and so it is the fact that some ancient men dug homes in tbe old cliff, that led some recent financier to under take this strange, rock-cut restaurant or refreshment hall. But we hear the 'tin horn of tbe basha driver, hasten back to the road side, and crowd bur way into tbe un fortunate vehicle. A seventh passen ger has to share the seat with the driver, and we jolt away five miles to the station, where we arrive with less than five minutes to spare to train time. Japan is a great country of con noisseurs and collectors; It Is a land of perennial exhibits. Yesterday we had the pleasure of seeing a curious collection by a well-known connois seur, a man of wealth, education and position. It was the collection of toys of Marquis Tokugawa. The marquis is a younger member of tbe family of the last of the Shoguns or Japan. I!e has a beautiful property behind the Shiba park. On his prop erty a large building is devoted to his private library, one of the best in all Japan lie is interested in vari ous subjects in ethnography and an thropology, and among other things has made a very considerable collec tion or toys, not only Jaranese. but from all portions or the world. These have been on exhibition to invited guests Tor the past three days, and it was this exhibition that we had the pleasure of seeing. There had been a large attendance of visitors, and printed catalogues were gl-en to all. Several laige halls were devoted to the display which was arranged hi on a series of tables and to some degree upon the walls. A classification had been adopted, and the specimens arranged with reference to it. Japan, as evuryore knows, is a veiitable children's paradNe Nothing is too goou for the little ones. Prom the be ginning of the year at January I I. with its kites and battledore and . shuttlecock, on to the closing of the year, the childrens' year is marked by a succession of toys appropriate to the season. Iifcadio Hearne never wearied or mentioning the ariety and daintiness or these devices Well. J here they were displayed In all va- riety Notable .or course, were the i different kinds of dolls, in which Japan delights. There are dolls in old families that have been passed on from generation to generation through 200 years. In the dolls of such col lections one may follow something of the history of hairdressing among these people. There are dolls of every size from little creatures les than a half-inch in height to dolls as large as the children for whose amuse ment they were fabricated Most curi ous perhaps of all are the dolls with little beads of peas and clothes of ancient damasks and brocades: these are 200 years or more of age Also notable among the toys of Japan are the great variety and range or win puzzles: we hae oun-elves some of these but In comparison with the Japanese ours are nothing In kit" flying perhaps no people reach the Chinese, but certainly tbe Japanese are a c!ose second. Tbe walls of a whole hall were occupied with dif ferent types of kites The local ar1atioo of toys in Japan is rather interesting The same toy may have characteristic differences in different areas A whole room was devoted. In connection with the ex. hlbiu to a great table-map of tbe em pire. and upon this map were care fullv arranged In geographical posi lion the characteristic types of some of the more common toys, giving a most suggestive illustration of ti.e difference in art ideals and technique 't will be seen that tbe marquis has an educational idea underlying his dis play In a handsome lecture hall in the library building, during tbe three days or the exhibit, lectures were givn upon the subject cf toys ic their historical, ethnological and edu national aspects When we were hee vest- rday a professor of the Women's Normal school was speak mg to an audienr of perhaps 200 persons upon the subject of the edu cational meaning an.t value of c-bil dren's toys iCotJ right.
