Sir Benjamin Stone's pictures; records of national life and history reproduced from the collection of photographs made by Sir Benjamin Stone, . ips for foreign is an interesting fact that Japans first battleship,the Foo Soo, was designed by Sir Edward Reed. Fromthat vessel one of the most powerful fleets in the worldin ships and in men has developed in a fjuarter of acentury. Sir Edward died in 1906. In what a different walk in life has Mr. E. T.
