Part 16
On the afternoon in question the fair ones of Portsmouth were initiated into all these mysteries, and probably regarded the electric fans as some new and horrible war device. I heard a remark to that effect, anyhow!
Not all the visitors, however, were so inclined to regard everything as a war machine. On Sunday a good many visitors of both sexes found their way to the Kasagi, and peeped into the wardroom, where the officers were wrestling with naval Kriegspiel.
“Race game,” said one lady; “how babyish these foreigners are!”
“I don't know, my dear,” replied her companion, apologetically. “Perhaps they gamble on it for high stakes.”
“Oh,” was the response, “of course that makes a difference!”
For the “At Home” the Kasagi was _en fête_, draped in flags, and generally looking her smartest. Even the engine-room was on show, though I only noticed one visitor venture there—a lady in a light fawn-coloured rig-out, not the best thing to penetrate the mysteries of an engine-room in. Perhaps, however, she contented herself with peeping in.
The main feature of the “At Home” was an entertainment given by the bluejackets. There was quite a long variety programme, with fencing between each “turn.” As these encounters are accompanied by wild yells every now and again on the part of the combatants, they are particularly interesting.
There was a conjuring entertainment, which mightily amused the crew, but perhaps puzzled the visitors somewhat as to what it was all about. The best thing of all was a song by a Japanese sailor—a monotonous chant that grew gradually louder, accompanied by various movements with a sword, suggesting that something exciting was about to happen. Then came in English, “That's all; you know!” It was well done, and its flat finale very amusing.
There were dances of various sorts, sack races, egg races, and a few other sports with which we are familiar, interesting here because the performers were Japanese, and also because of their intense zest and evident pleasure. Some English songs by Japanese sailors were one of the interesting bits, too.
Finally, on leaving, each lady guest was presented with a paper chrysanthemum. They had previously been asking the Japanese officers how they managed to get them to bloom in the summer season! The imitations and colouring were perfect. The material for construction: odd bits of paper and—Japanese bluejackets.

“He made the Sporting Novel something so entirely different to what it had been that he must be recognised as the originator of a new species more elevated, more refined, and more largely imbued with the spirit of modern society. No reader can take up any one of his best stories without feeling himself in a fresh atmosphere, and on a higher range of thought and feeling than he was conscious of in the sporting writers of the preceding generation.”—_Standard._
“What is most rare in writers of this class Whyte-Melville possessed to a considerable degree, namely, the ability to hold the attention of readers, whether they were sportsmen or not.”—_Saturday Review._
“An edition more worthy of the novelist has certainly not been issued before.”—_World._
“Fulfils every requirement of the book-lover in paper, type, illustrations, and binding.”—_Saturday Review._
