Il Japanese hight Ride.

We kld now to take a long night ride,
and at length we rushed out into the
moonlight, our fourteen runners appear
ing and disappearing as we came in and
out of the shadows in the long process.
sion of our train.
We whirled past the houses Of the small
town, indiscreetly close to the paper
screens, lighted from within, against
which were profled the shadows of
faces, sometimes with pipes or cups lift
ed to their lips or the outlines of coiffures
piled up on the head-all pictures more
japanese than their very originals; then
between rounded hills ON which stood
masses of maple trees; then near to empty
spaces Of water; then sank into dark
hollows, at the bottom of which a river
ran as fast the other way.
watched and looked as long as fatigue
allowed, but fell asleep in the uncom-
Portable kuruma, walked every now and
then by some sudden jolt to my extended
arm and head.
Occasionally had dreamy glances at
what remember as a vast blue plain,
with lofty colorless mountains at one
side, and perhaps saw glimpses of the
sea- The night air was cold in the hol-
lows after the sweltering day, and l
found my arm and face damp with the
dew. A japanese poet would have said
that it was but the spray from off the
oars of some heavenly boat which sailed
that night across the starry stream of
the milky way.
In the dawn we saw the white walls
of the castle of the city of Osaka, and
ran across its many bridges, all silent in
the morning. -John La Fargo in Century.

Success In Life.

DR.. John Hunter, the eminent surgeon,
adopted rule which may be recon-
mended to all. When a friend asked
him how he had been able to accomplish
so much in the way of study and discov-
cry in his busy life he answered: MY
rule is deliberately to consider before
commence whether the work is practi-
cable. If it be not practicable do not
attempt it. If it be practicable l can
accomplish it if l give sufficient pains to
it, and having begun I never stop until
the thing is done. To this rule owe
all my success in life" New York

STRIKE. AT CHICAGO.
Firemen and Engineers at the Union Stoch
Yards, Chicago, Go Out.


CHICAGO, Aug. 22.-All the firemen
and engineers employed by the Union
Stockyards Switching Association went
on a strike for higher wages this morn
ing.
At noon forty engines, each having
two men as crew, were lying idle at
the Forty-seventh street yards.
In consequence of the strike 1870
swtchmen are also idle.
As the association does all the switch
ing for the immense packing houses at
the yards, all work at tho packing
houses is at a standstill The tracks
are filled with immense trains of fresh
meat, which were destined for outside
points.
The reasons for the strike are: The
firemen receive sixteen and one-half
cents an hour and the engineers twen-
weight cents. The firemen want
twenty cents and the engineers thirty
cents. The men also desire the Sunday
work regulated.
The demands were this morning made
to G. Il. Williams, secretary of the
stock yards company. The mon refused
his request to go to work until their de-
mands could be considered and struck
at once.

Dun's Report Shows n Good Condition Of
Trade hut Speculation Makes Money
Close.
NEW York, Aug. 23.-R. G.. Dun &
Co.'S weekly review of trade says: The
signs of monetary disturbance which
were noticed in previous reviews we're
not misleading. At Philadelphia money
was tight, at Chicago in strong demand,
at St Louis unusually scarce at Z to S
per cent, at New Orleans tight, at Den
yer and st. Paul in good demand and at
Milwaukee more active at per cent,
firm at Kansas City and rather tight at
Detroit at per cent Tho obvious
and only sufficient relief is the liqui-
dation of money speculations in stocks,
In wheat, corn, oats cotton, leather,
hides, coffee, wool and especially
silver bullion, which have locked up
enormous sums In silver alone about
$40, 600, 600 has been locked up to wait
for higher prices in grain several times
as much and in other products many
millions, while the condition of the
market for securities was indicated by
the fall, averaging about 50 per share in
a single day on active stocks when
money became tight In addition the
enormous imports intended to ant;ci-
pate the pending Tariff bill have yirtu-
ally locked up for an indefinite time
many millions paid for goods and in
duties on them.
The volume of legitimate business
throughout the country continues large,
exceeding that of last year by ten per
cent outside New York and the desire
to market products quickly as pr.ces
rise causes greater demand for currency
from the country than usual. During
the past week the treasury has paid out
only Sol, 600 more than it has taken in.
Wheat closes cents higher than a
week ago, but the advance was much
greater before tho break came. Not
only have exports been arrested, but
$1,000 bushels of American wheat
were reshipped to this country
from Liverpool and trades were
in progress for more. Corn rose
only - cents and oats declined ~, but
pork products were shade stronger
Coffee and sugar were held without a
break, but cotton fell 5-16 on sales of
800, 900 bales and oil declined 81 cents
Exports of products from New York for
three weeks of August are % per cent
smaller than last years and the recent
changes do not yet suffice to bring ex-
portable staples down to the parity of
foreign prices.
