these are frequently takec away
and the whole house thrown into one
room. Ma w of the outer walls are
also dero, h able, and on warm sum
mer day al . put aside, and a delight
full bre re constantly passes through
the house. The floors are covered
with thick soft straw mats, which
are kept so clean that the people,
even when dressed in their best
clothes, sit or lie on them.
On entering a Japanese house you
must leave your shoes at the door,
Just as you do your hat. 1t would be
an unpardon able offense To come in
side and tread on the mats with
your shoes on The average Japa-
nese eats, sleeps, and lives in the
same room. He has no chairs, no
bedsteads, and no tables to get in
his way. During the day he slls on
the soft straw mats; when evening
COMES, two large comforts are
brought in, and one is spread on the
floor to lie Oh, while the other is
used for a covering. No sheets are
used, and the pillow is a funny little
block of wood. On this simple bed
they sleep as soundly as we on our
more elaborate ones. In the morn
ing the abed is rolled up anu packt d
away. At m,al time little tables
four or six inches high, aud about
sixteen inches square, are brought,
aud one is placed before each person.
The food Is served in pretty little
lacquer or Cnina bowls, aud each
Que ) portion il placed On his own

sticks about eight inches long aud
one-iourth of an inch in diameter.
These answer their purpose well, but
are hard to use until one is accus
toned to them. When the meal is
over, all these things are carried
away to the kitchen, and the room Is
ready for any other use TO which one
may desire 10 put it. In this way
one room is ulade to serve for all the
purposes of household.
The most conspicuous thing in a
Japants Sc room is the hibdchi-a
little wooden or china box about one
foot square. This is KEEP halffull of
ashes, and on top of the ashes is d
handful OF burning charcoal. On
this usually sets a little tei kettle
filled with boiling water, used IN
making tea, whieu Is drank With
out miIk or sugar at every n0ur of
the day. When one enters Japa-
nese house pollteness requires that
the host or hostess, Immediately
offer the guest small cup OF thls
tea. There Is no other provision for
heating the room, and as nc gives but
little heat, Japanese houses are very
cola In winter. They would not
answer at ali in cold climate, aud
even heIe the people suffer from the
cold.
! Japanese food is uupaltable to
most foreigners, and the eating oil
il is an art which must be gradually
acquired. From of old, Buddhism
FORBADE the eating of anything that
had animal life, and the Japanese
are probably as vegetenarisn IN
their diet as any people on earth.

butter were not USED. Butter Is very
unpaIatable TO them but many are

TO ATTRACT TOURISTS.
The Cliff Dwellings, Should Be Advertised
as q Scenic Attraction.

Unquestionably if the wonderful cliff
dweller ruins which abound within
twenty miles or so of Santa Fe were
properly advertised to the world hum
dreds of tourists and sightseers who
now pass by to Arizona and California
would come here to see them ami ex-
plore them. This could be made a big
card for the benefit of local liverymen
and hotels if properly taken up and
utilized as it is capable of being han
died. Doubtless both the Denver & Rio
and Santa Fe railway systems
would aid in widely advertising the
facts if their attention were called
Colorado is boasting of the
presence of thousands of tourists at
present, and looks forward to the COM
ing month as the banner month in his
tory for tourist travel through the
state. If a small percentage of the peo-
pie thus drawn to Colorado could be
induced to extend their summer vaca-
ton trips as far as Santa Fe, by using
these strange and interesting prehis-
toric cities, so near at hand, as a draw
ing card, to say nothing of the climate,
the fruits and the many features OF his
tOric note, the railroads, the livery men,
the hotels, and everybody else con-
cerned, including the tourist and
healthseeker, would be benefited.

The PALACE HOTEL.
1t Is Now a First Glass Hotel in Every
f. Respect,

: Respect.
The formal transfer of the deeds in
the Palace hotel deal took place today.
By this transaction William Vaughn
becomes sole owner of the property,
the consideration being S., 500, with the
proviso that "a 200 shall be expended
in improving the property. For nearly
a month these Improvements have been
under way and have so far progressed as
to justify the opening of the house to
the public tomorrow. The improve
ments In the spacious dining hall have
converted it into a thing of beauty,
much taste having been shown in the
establishment thereof, and there to-
morrow morning breakfast will be the
first meal served under the new regime.
Apartments about the house have also
received attention, the new furnishings
are beginning to arrive and in a few
days everything will be working that
system which Mr.. Vaughn knows so
well how to establish and maintain.
1t can justly be said now that there is
no more h%ospitable, comfortable and
convenient hotel in the southwest than

with one accord will commend and sus-
tain the new management in every eff
fort to maintain this high standard.
