SESSION OF THE DIET.
Promises to Be Most Uninteresting in
 Its History

1tS I1lStoIy.
 Yokohama. Feb 19.-The present session of the Diet promises to be the most uninteresting in the whole course of it's history, the opposition having practically vanished from existence. It is the custom of the Japanese poli- ticians whenever any one of them hap pens to differ from his party on even the most petty details. to secede and form a new party consisting largely of himself. This utter lack of cohesive ness has been demonstrated of late in the dissolution of Count Okuma's once strong party called the progression ists. On q single point of economic policy the count agreed with the dom- inant party in the diet. whereupon his followers largely deserted him, and there is now no political organization save that controlled by Marquis Ito, the premier.
 In relation to the peace pre1imi- naries in China. the trend of opinion in Japan seems to be strongly in fav- or of more lenient terms. It is rec ognized that a great injustice will be wrought if the indemnity demands are made too heavy- especially in view of the fact that the chief burden of pay ment will be placed upon the people of the south of China, who are not only not responsible for the outbreak, but who kept order and peace during its course. and prevented what would otherwise have been q frightful war, not only devastating China itself, but embroiling all Europe. Instead of an indemnity being laid upon the .in- dustrious and pence loving south, it is pointed out that the western na- tions should bestow upon it some tok- en of grateful appreciation.

Characteristic DiGercnccs.

One of the striking differences in
the characteristics of men and women
is that women like new things. while
men are 10th to part with old things
to which they have grown attached.
Old pipes, old penknives, old walking
sticks-these are the pets of most
men, while some even carry their af-
lection for old things to articles of
wearing apparel, such as old hats and
old shoes, defying the conventions
and thus laying themselves open to
the charge of eccentricity. In the
matter of penbnives nearly all men
are alike. 4 sign in front of an Arch
