There are some signs of improved con-
ditiQns in the passenger rates between Chi
cago and st. Paul The roads have not
restored rates. but they have for the time
being ceased to juggle them and nearly all
of them have said that they thought the
fight had gone to a sufficient length. There
is an excellent chance that the rates Will
be restored all along the line, and the 500
will refrain from hurting any bombs for a
time. The feeling against the Great West
ern road for accepting the reduced rate
made by the Eastern roads. for the meeting
of the Elks in Minneapolis is dying out,
as the general opinion is that it acted clearly
within its rights. even had it been q, mem
Der of the association agreement. The 9TH
er roads did not like the acceptance of the
low rates, but they could not deny that
the Great Western had the right TO make
any rate it chose and that it had acted in
good faith by giving notice Of its intention;
1t is likely that a meeting OF interested
lines will be held in a short time and the
rates fixed up, if some new cause of war
does not develop before the meeting can
he held.

THE DECORATIVE JAPANESE,
Home Ways of Summer Life Among the
MikadOs People.

Home Ways of Summer Life Among the
Mikado's People.
Gardens excepted, there are no out
ward manifestations of the old poetry
of japanese life so remarkable as those
summer houses occupying all the pic
turesque sites of the country. Wherever
there is a view worth going to see you
will almost certainly find a summer
house built to command it, no matter
how wild or poor the district.
You will find summer houses cling
ing to sea cliffs over the thunder Of
breakers, nesting in shadows of gorges
over the roaring of rapids, strutted out
over the precipice fronts like eagles
nests at the verge of dead craters, for
in Japan there will always be summer
guests wherever there is summer beauty,
travellers happy to please their eyes
and rest their feet and ~ leave some
coppers in payment for the privilege of
the vision and the repose.
The summer house at which l am
now staying is typical of the class, a
skeleton structure of two stories, simply
and strongly built after the manner of
peasants dwellings and at cost of
perhaps $50. Timber is cheap here. On
the other side of Japan such build
ing could not be put up for $500. 1t
stands on the edge of lofty cliff and
overlooks little bay near ancient
Moinoseki. From ground floor to roof
it is open on three sides, and on the
seward side shelter from the sun and
wind is given by trees rooted in the
cliff below, but towering far above the
eaves-enormous pines, with branches
many feet in girth. Between the zig
gags Of those mighty limbs there are
glimpses of the sea and fishing sails
Canvas or straw fitting like white or
yellow butterflies, and the far pale
thread line of the Hoki coast, and Dia-
sens cone thrusting into the clear sky
like some prodigious blue crystal, or,
looking directly down over the needle
foliage of younger pines you see the
whipping of the bay and bathers laugh
ing among the rocks, and children play
ing with seaweed and shells. You view
the world as fishhawk views it,
though l presume with vastly different
sensations. After a swim it is delight
full to sleep here, the sharp, sweet sea
wind in your hair. You are furnished
with bathing dress, sandals, big
straw hat of curious shape to keep off
the sun barley tea and cakes a smok-
ing box and pillow, and the price per
day of this entertainment is-3 cents!
The guest is expected to bring his own
food with him and to provide himself
with towels. -Lafcadio Hearn in At
lantic Monthly.

FREELY FLASHES.
The Method by Which the Insect Emits
Its Beautiful Light,


Its Beautiful Light,
"By what process do firef1ies produce
the beautiful flashes of Light" That is
a question frequently asked, and as en-
tomological books fail to give salts
factory reply the following explanation
may be interesting:
have made a special study of the
light, and carefully examined the mech
anism of the illuminating segments in
both male and female specimens. The
light emitted, when tested by the spec
troscope, gives a brilliant spectrum,
which is continuous through all the
colors from the red to the violet rays.
The Illuminating organs consist Of dis
tinct spherical cells, each one Of
which is about 10000 of an inch in
diameter, and the beetle has power to
illuminate one or many Of these cells at
will, producing light of corresponding
intensity. The cells contain a fluid sat
urated with phosphorus, and the cover
ing of the cell is so thin that atmosphere
coming in contact with it may affect
the contents.
IL LAS UCCh ouBSCelCu tuuU luO DStGlO
produces the flashes of light or renders
the phosphorus suddenly luminous by
electricity-by the injection Of warm
huids-or by friction. But it is certain
that the flash of light is made in an
other way. We may clearly trace a con-
nection between the spiracles and
trachea (spiral air tubes) of the beetle
and each of the illuminating cells, and
find that the little creature renders the
phosphorus contained in the cells lumi-
nous by forcing air upon them. The cells
when thus excited emit light from their
surface
We may initiate the act of the beetle
by dissecting one and placing the illumi-
mating organ under a microscope, COW
cred by thin glass cover. When the
cover is lifted so as to admit little air,
the cells become luminous.
We may add that the name ''firefy"
is MISSIONER, as the lightning bug"
is a true beetle, belonging in the natural
order caleoptera, and in the family

A Very United Family.

The value attached by the poor, and
even by those who are not in the depths
of poverty, to decent surroundings in
family life is very variable quantity.
Decent lodging is not by any means
universally regarded as one of the prime
necessaries of life Occasionally it is
relegated to quite back seat
An instance was given before the
commission of family of seven per-
sons-father, mother two grown up sons
and three grown up daughters-all liv-
ing in one room. With them this ar
rangement was a matter of choice not
necessity, for they earned between them
about 81 week, more than $3.50 a
year, and even from a Stun landlord
they could no doubt have afforded TO
rent another room or two Having
screwed down the item of rent to an
irreducible minimum, they determined
to have a thoroughly good time, and this
is how the witness describes their pro-
ceedings: I'm the evening they would
Ill go out TO the music halls and to the
theaters. On Saturday afternoon they
would take five tickets each for some
omnibus or conveyance that was going
into the country, and on Sunday they
would go to Brighton and to other
places. I" 1t is comforting to reflect that
these Arcadian beings were a unit
ed family and always took their pleas
uTe together as we'll as their maps. 1t
is not stated whether they took in
dodgers. From 1.-The Housing of the
