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

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

feet in height. Chamberlain says that

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

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

caves occur, a neighboring ridge is'

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

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
