Japanese Types.

From Harper's Weekly.
There are two totally distinct tvnes in
Japan. which may almost be sai' 10 be
each others oppos;tes The first. which the
Japanese themselves call the Chinese or
Corean, is the more common. Those be-
longing to it have round faces fat roses,
full cheeks, rather thick lips-very pretty
ones often-and very good white teeth.
Those belonging to the second, or true
Japanese type. have long ana comparative
ly pale faces, noses arched like the beak Of
a bird thin lips, large eyes, with not very
strongly marked eyebrows, and teeth most
ly good, always very white, bat ofte;, lung
and irregular This is the aristoc, dtic
tyne, which when at It's best is really worthy
of admra ton. To be call ID hanlSom. a
japanese must belong to it, while those of
the Chinese cast of countenlnce are never
more than pretty.
Strange to say, the moral character of
the sections of the community differs
much as does their appearance. l have
noticed that as general rule, those with
Chinese faces are gay, laughing ana rest
less, full Of careless good humor, while the
others are silent, Indifferent melancholy,
sometimes even dismal.

at the figures returned by the company.
The Atlantic and Pacific requested a
reduction of $4,000 per mile and in a
private letter it was stated that the
company would be satisfied with a
mileage valuation of $4,000. The letter
further explained that the company
only desired that the valuation should
be temporary and would not take
the favorable action of the board as a
precedent in determining the valuation
of the road in the future. The facts
that the road was in the hands of re-
ceivers and was oppressed by debt and
the effect of the late strike were pre-
scented to the board as reasons for the
request.
The Prescott and Arizona Central
asked reduction that would leave the
valuation OF the road at $500 a mile.
1t was presented to the board that the
road was not now in operation, that it
had been twice sold and that the COM
pany was struggling to pay off its in
debtedness. Unfavorable action was
taken on all these petitions.
The consideration of the values OF
other varieties of property was post
poned for the reason that the report
from Pinal county alone had not been
received. The board telegraphed for il
and it is expected to arrive by mail this
morning.
