OKLAHOMA GRASS HOUSES
(N. Y. Times. )

The grass houses formerly built by
 the Wichita Indians of southern Ok
 lahoma are exceedingly interesting
 The grass is gathered early in the spring, when it is yet fresh. The sod
 after cutting usually takes place i'm mediately after a rain, the sod being removed to a thickness of about eight inches. Buffalo grass sod is the only kind that will answer the purpose of the builder. He commence to lay the foundation as does the stonemason, digging away the earth to a depth of about one foot. The grass portion of the chunks or sod is laid to the out side and the house is built to a height
 of twelve to fifteen feet. in the form of a pointed dome. There is no hole in the top for smoke to pass out, the latter being carried away through a pipe outside of the hut. The door is usually on the south and there are no
 windows. Through each tuft of sod is
 run a willow reed string and these
 strings are bound clear around the
 structure. The grass remains greer and will grow if there is plenty oi | rain. It is not at all uncommon lo ses the sides of these grass houses turn green as spring approaches, just as l do the pastures near them. The houses are very warm in winter ana
 cool in summer. They never leak.

that most stars have dark bodies revolv-

quite eccentric, and life such as we know
probably could not exist under the eX-
