From Mct1ure's Magazine.
Seasickness starts In the ear In its
cavity are three small tubes, each bent in
a circle and filled with fluid The three
sit at right angles to each other like the
three sides at the corner of a room or a
box. Consequently, in whatever direction
the head is moved, the fluid in some one
of the tubes is given circular motion.
Hanging out into the tubes from their
sides, are hairs of ella, which connect with
rerve cells and fibres that branch on from
the fluid moves. the hairs move the cells
are fired on, nervous current is sent
up to the brain and a feeling of the head

ear canals are affected, are never sea-

But normally the amount of ear feeling
which we get by reason of moving our
head in particular direction comes in
curious way to be a measure of the di-
rection of Thea sound. The feelings We get
from our skin and muscles in turning the
head play similar role. We turn oul
ear to catch a sound. We do this so fire.
Quently for every point that In time We
learn to judge the direction of the sound
by the way we would havS to turn the
head in order to hear the sound best. There
after we do not have to turn the head to
get the direction, for We now remember the
proper feeling and know it. This memory
of the old feeling is our idea of the present
direction. If We never moved our head we
never could have any such notion of the To-
cation of sounds as at present-perhaps
none whatever.

ASHAMED OF WAITE.
Senator Teller Denounces the Extra
Sessfon scheme of Colorado's Governor

Senator Henry NJ. Teller of Colorado. in
an interview. denounces the extra session
scheme of Gov. Waite as one of the worst
things that could have happened to Colorado
While in Mexico he talked with several
officials regarding Gov. Waite's proposition
to circulate Mexican gold dollars in Colo
RADIO as legal tender. They all made much
sport of the proposition and declared il was
not feasible. He did not mention IL to Pres
ident Diaz, as he was ashamed to.
Mr.. Teller believes that the United States
might profitably initiate the financial policy
OF Mexico. which is now, he says. the most
prosperous country on the western con-
tinent. He looks for no favorable silver
legislation, but believes that President
Cleveland would change his silver policy al
once should Great Britain see her way clear
to adopt a double standard MIR. Teller re-
turns to Washington Wednesday.

JAPAN'S DIPLOMATIC VICTORY
Great Britain Abandons Her Claim TO
Extra Territorial Jurisdiction.

Extra Territorial Jurisdiction.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 2s.-News has been
received here by the diplomatic corps that
new treaty has just been negotiated be-
tween Japan and Great Britain, by the
terms of which the claims of extra terri
torial jurisdiction by the latter is aban-
doned. Negotiations looking to the rati-
fication of similar treaties are going on
between Japan and the United States, and
with other European nations than Great
Britain, and 1t Is assumed that they will
now speedily follow the example set by
the latter and fully recognize the right of
Japan to administer justice in her own
territory.
The Importance of Great Britain's ac-
tion lies in the fact that it is really the
recognition of Japan as fully civilized
power The assertion of extra territorial
jurisdiction has always been confined to
barbarous and semi-civilized countries,
whose ignorance of the first principles OF
Justice and law seemed to render impera-
tive the retention by the civilized nations
of the power to administer justice where
their own citizens were concerned even as
against natives of the semi-civilized coun.
try, and within It's borders This has
been done through the medium of con.
sular courts, and the system obtains in
Egypt, China, .Eoan, Turkey and many
other countries.
Ever since the wave of civilization rolled
over Japan her sensitive and proud peo.
pie have resented the continuance of the
extra territorial system, not solely be-
cause of its workings, but also because ii
was standing declaration that Japan
was not civilized, and was reflection on
the Japanese judiciary. Therefore the ac-
tion of Great Britain in surrendering this
claim to the new treaty is of great i'm
portance to Japan as marking distinct
epoch in her advancement to the front
rank of nations.

PULLMAN coMPANYs PROFITS.
10 Has Never Paid n Dividend OF Less
Than Per Cent.

CHICAGO, Aug. 2S.-George M. Pullman
was before the labor commissioners for
nearly three hours yesterday afternoon.
Vice President Wickes who followed his
superior, occupied two hours, and will ap
pear again. In answer to queries by
Chairman Wright Mr.. Pullman told OF
the contracts for work undertaken by the
company at a loss In order that the men
might be kept at work. He said that on
bid for cars for the Long Island railroad
he put in a bid for something between
$500 and $40O car below actual cost
rather than have the men idle. Up to the
time OF the strike the company had lost
more than $4,000 in pursuit OF this policy
Judge Worthington brought out the
fact that the company's original capital
stock of 81, 900, 600 in 1867 had increased to
$50, ,OOO,O 600; that the company had paid
dividends of l2 per cent. during the first
two years of its organization, 9h per cent
during the next two years, and per cent.
annually since, and at the same time had
accumulated a surplus amounting to $685.
900. He also elected the statement that
the stock of the Pullman Land association
was entirely in the hands of the Pullman
Palace Car company
Mr.. Pullman said he remembered no
formal attempt to get him TO arbitrate
with the men. He had declared his will
ness to arbitrate.
After getting an admission that for the
whole year the company had made
money and paid for the year per cent,
or S3SOO,000 in dividends, Judge Worth
ington said:
Has the Pullman company during the
years of its prosperity ever advanced the
wages of its employees Voluntarily"
81 do not know as to that. IL has al.
ways sought to pay fair wages"
What do you see that is Objectionable
In submitting difference like this to ar.
bitrationg'
"The question as to whether our shops
should continue to run at a loss is n thing
that could not be arbitrated. 1t violates
the principle that man has a right to
manage his own business.H
Let me ask you, Mr.. Pullman, whether
you do not think company that pays
dividends of S2,SO0. 900 could not afford to
share the losses of its employees who have
worked for it so long2"
"The manufacturing business Is sepa-
rate from the business of the sleeping car
company. / see no reason why should
take the profits Of the 4, 200 stockholders
in the Pullman sleeping car company and
pay men IA higher rate of wages than was
paid in other parts of the country for the
same work" .. ....-...
In response to further questions Mr..
Pullman said the execution of contracts
at a loss was better for the plant than to
let it lie idle.
