The loess r gion of Chin i perhaps the most broken country in the world, with its *heer cliff-: and upright nods, terrains and deep it ravines. Owing to the ea<e with which it cart h- worked, caves made at the has- - of straight < iiffs. afford homes to millions of people :r. the densely populated north ern provinces where the Boxers hove thus far been most active.

It may not be generally known that the Chinese were the discoverers of coal as a fuel. The Venetian traveler Marco Polo says. It is j fact that all over ♦he country of Cathay vChina) there is a kind of bla k stone existing in the beds of the mounts.ms whi. h they tlig out and burn like firewood. This stone burns bet ter and costs less.” Grct Rlx er*. The river? of China are her glory and there are few our.tries in the world so well watered ar.d none wkh such splendid natural wa*er transiH>rtation f. ilitie? The three great rivers of the empire are the Yang-tse-Kiang iChi.d of th- Ocean, the Hoang Ho (Yellow River) aiti theChu* Kiar.g (Pearl or Canton Riven. Of these the Yangr-tse-Kiang is much the largest, flowir.c through extensive an 1 fertile plains an j finally emptying into the Eastern sea after traversing a dis tar, e o' over 2 • miU-s It? di? harp* I- 1 e?* mated at 1 'W rub;' feet p f r second The bank* of the Yang tse are crowded w*h towns an i xl lagets. the most famous of whi h are Nan kin. and the new treaty port of Hankovr The Hoang Ho or Ye!low River is especially* for i:s frequent and violent floods Its current is very rapid and its course sinuous nearly approaching in length the Yarg-:?e. The Pearl or Can ton river white r.ot nearly so large a? the others is a stream of great importance aivd Innumerable vessels trade upon it* waters. A: some points it spreads into Urge vn it betwr-^ narrow gorge? whirh. if dammed, would afford large etoragi . - ?ior Tne Chinese however, have rot rracticai'y worked out irrigation in its different phases as completely as would be expected of such an agricultural peo- P>- Irrigation, nevertheless, is practice*! to a considerable extent through the use of the waters cf the Grand canal, and by wells The Grand or Imperial car.a! is a work of magnitude.
