CIeso Season Fee Seals.
An international agre•ment 1.. pre-

urged upon Right Zinn. Jam.•. Bryen

Joseph Roscovitx of Victoria. }(.('.
Under the terms of the Paris Award
of 18113. Canadian and American seal -
era had agreed not to catch seals b.' -
fore the fret of Angled in any year;
that they will not catch any seals
within the three-mile limit. of the
I'ribyloff islands and that the 11.e of
firearms in the real fisheries he ale
solutely prohibited. Unfortunately
they reckoned without the Japanese.
who, not being bound by the' terns
of the Paris award, are free to do na

ing a i -nurse, which, unleaa snore ter-
minated, must inevitably result in
the ext„rminat.irn of the seals
The effect of this course of setinst
by Japan has teen that the fknadian
sealing fleet has been relunell from
fifty ships to five. In the meantime,
the Japanese seaalerm have opened
their annual hunt an early in they -ear
as May. and have been using firearm's
Mg freely as they wished. Despairing
of any international agreement being
reached that will restore to them
their former freedom of action, the
Canadian seelers have now adopted,
another tack.
They are asking the Governments
of Great Britain and the United
States to apprnaeh Rsnsia and Japan
with a request that a dose season

ten years at least, 'hall lin establish-

proposition ie a matter for the future

Both the British ambassador and the
Premiei have sefted the importance
of the request. and each has prornie-

EVANS' BIG FLra.T.
The Way It Would Have Toyed With
the Spanish Armada.
Speaking ot the fleet of -American
battleships now Oil its wry to I'aclflc
waters as an "armada," as some writ-
es appear fond of doing, is comparing
very
things with great8• !t t thlttga very
small. It IN true that the Spanish ar-
mada 1u 158.., to which allusion of
course 1s math, tilled a largo place In
history and was a very spectacular at
falx hi its day, but Its power ns com-
pared with that of life fleet under Ad-
miral Evan* -waw the power of a crow
compered with that of an engle. 'The
"Invincible armada" of Spain, which
wet out to invade Awl wtpture England
In :GSA, was a formldrible demonstra-
tion of naval power tar that period.
though It met with complete disaster.
The armada consisted of about 130
vessels, some of them of great size.
bot all 'wooden and without any prp-
tertion against even the feeble artil-
leryof that day. They carried 1n all
sn
2.431 guns and ore then 19,000 men,
besides the worklug crews. As tbesol-
diere could not help work the ships,
they were really lu tho ivay and much
more helpless on shipboard ?lieu mod-
ern marines. The cannon which
formed the armament of the ships
Were mere toys compared with -thenar
of the present day. Finally the ships
were all Bailing ships, cumbrously
built. hard to maneuver and liable to
be lust out of action by adverse winds.
Torpedo boats and mobitors were un-
known at that day.
The 'Atnerle.n Beet consists of six-
teen first rinse battleships. elgbt ar-
mored cruisers. nine protected cruh.-
ere, six gunboats, six torpedo boat
destroyers and three monitors. The
ahlps carry a total of 2.184 guns. any
one of which could sink tho biggest
ships in the Spanish armada with one
abot from a distance that the heaviest
gun to the Spanish fleet could not cov-
er half the way. The concentrate] fir.'
of all the ships in tie $panlah fleet
would not make a dont hu the armored
aides of one of the Americau shpts,
while a .ingjv broadside from the Int -
ter would sink or disable the entire
armada. Finally the American ships,
being worked by',team stud eleotrlelty,
are entirely independent of w1ii4 and
weather. After they hod stenmed
through the Spanielt armada once,
from end to end, coming oft scathlr4s,
there would 11e nothing left of the ar-
