JAPANESE GAMESTERS.

Some of the Games to Which They De-
 vote Their Time.
 The little men of Japan are the gam fest gamblers in the east. The average Jap, says the St. Louis Globe-Demo. crat, will play the shirt off his back any day in the week. Their favorite game, and, indeed, the national, is ''harra," or, in English. flower. The cards are little oblong slips of paste board, forty eight in the deck. These are divided into twelve series, each representing Q month. Ten of these combinations bear the picture Tn bright colors of some flower. The other two, August and November, are represented by rain pictures and the moon, respect ively. There are generally six players, and four cards each, with three to the table, is the original deal. The game is q sort of combination of the features of casino, euchre and poker, is easily and quickly played and, to the Japs, is deeply interesting-the more so as they bet heavily. There are two three big Japanese gambling houses here, and they are well patronized and profitable. The drop is only ten per cent. of every pool put up. Cappers for these games watch every incoming steamer from the Orient, and when newcomer is at all approachable he is introduced to a "harra" joint.

AN ILLUSION.
The Story of a Reader Who Would Not
 Scare the Bird.

The Story of Reader Who Would Not
 Scare the Bird.
 Speaking of illusion," said gentle man who resembled George Washing ton, "I recall reading some years ago an essay on 'Woodpeckers, by Maurice Thompson in his 'By-ways and Bird Notes The species of this bird, which the essay described, was very wild and unapproachable; but we had just caught track of one in a southern forest, and were trying to steal close to the tree on which he was at work. Stealthily, from bush to bush, we crept, getting nearer and nearer, but compelled to do it with almost absolute noiselessness. We'll, the writer had skillfully earned me with him in his stealthy attempt to get a good view of that bird, and just as he was describing his most delicate ven- ture and we were trying to make the last bush, it was necessary to turn the leaf of the book if I would follow the narrative. So completely did imagine myself in that Virginia woods that for just an instant I hesitated to turn the leaf of the book lest I should make a noise and frighten the bird"

Cannon on Runners.

In the Austrian army many exper- iments were made last winter near KralSau in the substitution of snow- runners for the ordinary cannon wheels. Maj. Gen. von Eschcnbacher, of the Austrian artillery, now reports that the tests resulted favorably to the innova- tion. The wheels of the cannon were made fast with strong brakes and steel runners of a snowshoc pattern were bound with rope to the undcrside of each. The cannon were dragged for three hours in snow between nineteen and twenty-nine inches deep and the estimated saving of effort in the trans. portation was approximately twenty five per cent. Several drifts more than three feet high were passed without difficulty. On ordinary declines, two men at the muzzle were able to retard the speed of the descent sufficiently. An "ice-riug" brake served the same purpose on a mountain side. The fit- ting of cannon with runners required ten minutes and the removal of them five minutes.

OUR hEALTH-GlvlNG GAMES.

Something About the Abuse of Athletic Sports.
 A distinguished American author writing from England, remarks tha the ''canker" of athletic sports is jus as prevalent in the schools and college of Great Britain as it is in those of the United States.
 Canlxer, says Youths Companion, is a strange word to use in such connec- tion. It meant originally the same as cancer, Latin word for crab, but in modern days applied to a terrible dis ease that slowly and secretly eats its way to the vital organs.
 As all good things are abused, so are athletic exercises, but surely there is nothing about them that ought to sug- gest cancerous disease. If this Ameri- can traveller will cross over to Germany, he may there discover state of things in the colleges and universities that savers strongly of canker. He will not find any popular enthusiasm about ball games, nor any athletic or aquatic con- tests between rival universities; but he will meet abundant evidence that too much anxious study, relieved by fight ing duels and drinking beer, produces effects upon students that may be cor rectly called deadly.
 The abuses of our athletic system are known and lamented; but we should not on that account undervalue those sports which not only strengthen and discipline those who take part in them,
 
 thought and conversation to the whole community of students.
 With us, the years spent in the high school and college are generally our happicst, and it is rare indeed that an American student has so much as Q thought of wickedly taking his own life, or of putting to hazard the life of another

JUDGE Ross has decided that the United States held the Itata without any color of legal right to do so. IL has been claimed that had the Ita:a and her arms not been seized by the United States that the war would have been ended two months earlier and 1000 lives and $2,OOO,OOO worth of property been saved. As all the United States asks for the murder of her two sailors at Valparaiso is a money consideration, perhaps com promise might be effected.
