A JAPANESE RESTAURANT.
Strange Dishes Served After the Custom Of

Strange Dishes Served After the Custom Of
the Festive Japanese.
[Constantlnople Eastern Expressl
A Japanese restaurant has been opened,
and one who has dined there says: "Llft-
ing the little saucer-shaped lacquer cover
from the soup, and taking advantage of
the concession to European prejudices the
commissioners have made In providing
spoons, instead of obliging him to drink
his soup like tea from the bowl, the ad-
vonturous diner-out will find that he has
before him a savory compound, called on
the card misoshiru. This is made, as the
root word denotes, from misc, fermented
mixture of soy beans, wheat and salt.
Having disposed of this, he will then, IL
his appetite is good and his taste gastro-
nomically catholic, attackwith pleasurable
surprise the many little plats on his tray
With these he will wisely play, turning for
relief from the white sweetened haricot
beans, mixed with kavatake "a kind of
mushroom grown in the shadows of rocky
bowlders), and the delicious lobster pud-
ding or cold omelette and other trines in
cluded under the head of kuchstori to the
hachimono, which may happen TO be a
piece of plump sole stewed in soy.
Then for change he may with the pair
of wooden chop sticks which are laid be-
fore him on a bamboo tray, divert himself
with trying to pick out of small china
cup, made without a handle, the brown
soy colored beans and strips of kikurage,
or ear-shaped mushrooms. Boiled rice is
served in separate bowl. Another sub
stantial dish, wanmori, consists of meat or
fish and vegetables, possibly, for instance
a fresh salmon and slice of vegetable
marrow with pieces of soaked iu, kind of
biscuit made from the glutinous part of
wheat flour. The gravy in which these
pieces deresis.ance are floating is thickened
with transparent starchy substance, OBJ
tanned from the root of n climbing plant
called hy the japanese kusu. For, salad
there are slices of cucumber favored with
scraped shreds of dried bonito, a fish much
in favor on the Pacific coasts; the cucum =
Der being dressed with vinegar and sugar,
but without oil. One other relish must be
noticed, the sliced root of the burdock salt
ed and preserved in misc. A sweet kind of
sake, described as japanese wine, is the
proper beverage at the meal, which is pre-
pared by cooks from Japan, and served just
as II would be in restaurant in Toxic and
without any addition of European dishes.

n Monkey Cured of Horse Riding.
dublin Herald

lDhbth
Not long ago a gentleman who rather
prlded himself on very fine stud of
hunters, found that the horses did not ap-
pear properly refreshed by their nightly
rest. One Of the grooms, on being desired
TO keep strict watch, discovered that a
tame monkey, belonging to the house, was
accustomed to ride on the horses backs
almost all night, preventing them from
taking sufficient rest.
His master, on discovering his penchdnt
for riding, and being averse TO killing the
monkey on account OF his horsemanship,
succeeded In curing him effectually OF his
love OF horses. The next time that the
hounds met he had the monkey put into
full hunting suit, and secured by strap
to the saddle Of his most spirited hunter
and took him away to the meet. When the
fox was found the horse pricked up his
ears at tho well-known sound, and started
off at once. The chase happened TO be a
particularly long and severe one, the
monkey, OF course, from his light weight
being far ahead Of the legitimate hunts
men.
A countryman who was coming from
the direction the fox had taken, was In
terrogated by some Of tho sportsmen who
had been thrown out as 10 the position Of
the hunt, and told them that the fox was
looking tired, but that none OF the hunts
men were near, except little gentleman
In a yellow jacket who took leaps beaut-
fully. Sure enough, Master Jacko was In
at the death, but did not by any means Gp-
preciato the honor. After the fox had
been killed there was long ride home
again, by the end Of which time the
monkey seemed thoroughly wearied out.
After this experience, he was never known
TO mount horse again.

The Ford-Murphy Disgrace.

The new trial of 7. j. Ford and
others for the murder of Andrew H.
Murphy is fixed for the 18th inst.
The preliminary examination of the
peuurers In the case will take place
on the 14th inst. In the meantime
the Juror Scott is detained in the
Parish Prison nominally as an i'm
portant witness; but it is under
stood that he is to be indicted either
TOR misconduct in the jury room or
for previous crimes. The Juror
Runte, whose intercepted letter to
his wife led to the summary dis
charge of the jury, has been releas-
ed upon the ground of moral TRES
possibility in the premises, because
OF his ignorance and low intellectual
level. Two or more other persons
charged with bribery and intimida-
ton will probably he dealt with BY
the Grand Jury at an early date
". o. Picayune, 18Th.
The report of the grand jury after
investigated the crookedness in the
above case discloses state of facts
that is absolutely shocking. Com
munications, it is shown, passed
freely between the prisoners and the
jurors. Bribery was boldly and open
ly proposed and even threats used
One of the jury took upon himself
the task of seducing the other mem
bers, while deputy sheriff having
charge of the jury room seems to
have devoted himself to carrying
messages and letters to and from it,
on behalf of the murderers.
To their honor be it said, Judge
W. L. Evans and Judge Arthur Gas
tlnel, counsel for the murderers,
have Withdrawn in sheer disgust.
