sandwiches, replete with indigestion, is be-
ing superseded by the hot lunch of appe-
tizing soups, stews and entrees, served
quickly: the UNDERGONE bread displaced by
the long French roll or brown bread. Fruits.
too, are an important feature of most
lunch rooms menus now, and oranges, ap-
pies. bananas and pineapples tempt the
appetite soon to be supplemented by the
luscious berries of the changing seasons
AS one who speaks feelingly upon the
subject. having run the gamut of all the
atrocities in the way of lunches, the writer.
for one, is inclined to render grateful
thanks for the evidences of Improvement
and to give hearty encoura cement to all
these enterprises, that certainly are for the
public good. For who cannot recall the
miSerieS of the old regime, with days of
earnest endeaVor marred in the middle by
the deadly lunch of pie, sandwich and ccf-
fee? Therefore, speed the day of complete
emancipation, when the brain worker and
he who labors with his muscles find
midday sustenance ready at hand for a few
cents.
1t is really wonderful what one can do In
this direction with few nickels or
small silver piece. The old luncheon round
er, who has found out all the different
kinds of places, and knows the good and
bad points of each, can with the exercise
of discrimination fare very we'll for break
fast, lunch or dinner. Impecuniosity should
bless the day when these small and wor
thy establishments were started, for they
send many a hungry stomach, when ac
cOmpanled Dy ISnt pocket, away reJOlc-
ing.
There are two distinct classes of cheap
lunch rooms in Washington, the beer and
the temperance places, and both serve a
purpose. The one is after fashion an
old world institution. The other decid-
eddy American. All kinds and conditions
of lunch rooms can be found within easy
walking distance of The Star building, and
a tour of them, extending over a series
of days, is interesting. Each one has its
regular clientele, varied by the presence
of the transents and the wise FOUNDERS,
who move on from one place to another.
The little beer concerns interesting
in their way, and their fare is by no means
to be despised. On the contrary, it is
certainly wholesome and nearly always ap-
petizing. if perhaps lacking in the ele-
ment of daintiress sometimes, as well as
of cleanliness. They are usually conduct
ed by Germans, and when the wife of the
owner or German woman does the cook
ing the result is sure to be satisfactory
from a culinary point.

JAPAN CALLS RUSSIA DOWN.
Demands Modification of Secret
Treaties With China.

a dispatch from London says:
The foreign office takes a pessimstic
view of the immediate future in the far
east. in spite of the settlement of the Tien
Tsin incident, and entertains grave fears
that the relations between Japan and Rus
STA may shortly reach the danger point.
Judging from Information obtained in
various official quarters in London, Japan
has confided to at least some OF the pow
ers her determination to oppose at all
costs any secret agreement made between
Russia and China by which the former
could secure territorial or other advantages
contiguous to Corea.
The British government has received no
official confirmation that the Japanese
fleet is mobilizing, but it would not be sur
prising To learn that such were the fact.
"A highly placed British official said today:
All Japan wants is a free hand against
Russia. This she has got so far as
England and Germany are concerned and,
i presume. SO far as the United States
government is concerned, although / do
not imagine for one moment that any of
the powers mentioned would be drawn into
a war between Japan and Russia. If ia
pan sees nothing for it but to fight she
would have the moral support of obicc-
tions committed to paper by at least two
other powers against secret treaties with
China. That is all; but Japan seems to
consider it sufficient to provide against in
reference"
Confirmation Of the foregoing definition
of the situation was afforded by the sec
rotary of the japanese legation, who said
in the course of an interview:
While rejoicing at the fact that Eng
land and Russia have reached a pacific
settlement over the minor issue, the main
questionable integrity of the Chinese en-
pire-remains unsettled. In response to
pressure brought by Japan upon Russia it
was announced that Russia's secret trea-
ties with China had been modified: but the
terms have been withheld Until
the treaties we will not be satisfied that
the modification does not consist of words
merely, without any alteration in the
spirit In this contention we believe other

Mr.. w. C. Haskell, the District sealer of

Commissioners the fining OF two drivers Of
the Standard Oil Company IN the Police
Court recently for using cans with ham,

a quart. The cans, he states, are still IN

should be destroyed But the representa-

A Specimen Beer Lunch.

The people who frequent these places
show the result of hearty feeding The
most of the customers, barring the afore-
said wise FOUNDERS, do heavy work and
demand hearty nourishment. They most
assuredly get it.
Here is a sample of one of those beer
joint lunches. obtainable in scores of little
cafes down town, and furnished for the
modest sum of Is cents: You begin with a
bowl of vegetable soup-not the anaemc-
looking consomne, but a strong and udor-

Half a dozen men in Washington have
made moderate fortunes out of the dairy
lunch room business since the late Frank
K. Ward started the enterprise. Whether
the evolutionized establishments are as
profit able remains to be seen, but the way
they expand and increase in number would
indicate that there must be money In them.
The fact remains that there are rows OF
