Steubenville, O., July 7.-Joseph ].
Gill, Republican, of this city, sent his
resignation to Governor Nash as the
member of congress from the Six
tecnth Ohio congressional district, to
take effect upon the qualification of
his successor. The condition of his
health is assigned as the sole consld-
Grafton in this action, which is taken
upon the advice of physicians. The
district is one of the Republican
strOngholds in the state, but as Rep
resentatiye Gill's resignation comes
as a surprise, there are no names
mentioned for his place in congress.
In rendering his resignation, Mr..
Gil says 81 hereby tender my resig-
nation as representative in the Fifty
eighth congress from the Sixteenth
congressional district of Ohio, to take
effect upon the election and qualifica-
tion of my successor. In this COM
munication it will not be in order to
make extended reference to the reason
for this action. but may be permitted
to express my sincere regret that the
state Of my health, which is the sole
consideration, is such as to compel
this step, taken in accordance with
what seems to me to be the prudent
advice Of physicians.
Congressman Gill is wealthy
retired manufacturer, who recently
purchased controlling interest in the
Columbus Evening Dispatch. He was
first elected to congress in 1899 to fill
the uneXpired term caused by the
death Of Captain Danford. By his
RESIGNATION at this time Mr.. Gill re-
line ,isLca nearly $1,000 in salary.

ter, and laid them along the bottom and
sides of the oven. The pig, wrapped in
ti-leaves, was placed on top, and the
whole covered over with plenty of
earth. By this means l was told, all
the juice and flavor were preserved.
The result was a triumphant justifica-
ton of the method, for nothing could
have been more delicious. Then there
were several kinds of fish, wrapped
also in ti-leaves, chicken cooked like
the pig, taro in soft chunks, a most
excellent dish of stewed fruit, and squid
Gas the dry octopus tentacles are call
ed, which tastes like the distilled and
doubly condensed smell of Billingsgate
Market. Before each guest was
highly-polished calabash of koawood
containing poi-something like sage or
arrowroot, but of a grey color. 1t
would have destroyed the correctness
of local color of the feast to have used
knives and forks, so everything was
eaten with the fingers, and each guest
was provided with a fnger-bowl for
frequent washing. Now, eating with
the fingers comes quite natural to one
after a few minutes, but to watch 9TH
ers doing it is not appetizing. ! should
have been content to sacrifice a GER
tain amount of the local color in eX-
change for knives and forks, by which
to have done justice to the excellent
viands. Poi was an important part of
the meal. That national dish is eaten
by ladies with the first finger and by
the men with the second, except when
it is thin, and then it is called two
finger poi. The lady on my left was
an interesting talker, and while she
was giving me the account, as she
had heard it from her father, of the
great battle fought in the mountains
behind us, when Kamehameha drove
his enemies right over the precipice of
the Pail, she kept gesticulating with
lumpy festoon of poi round her fore
finger. The act was unconscious and
graceful on her part, but riveted my
attention in specializing as to whether
it was going to fall on my trousers or
on her dress. 1t finally reached her
mouth, however, without doing either.
In the garden beside the dining-room
four native musicians sang and played
during dinner. Their music is full of
melody and quite Western Sometimes
one thinks it is a Spanish or Italian
love-Song, sometimes the suspicion
crosses ones mind that some of our
most popular composers have been out
here and have borrowed a few airs for
comic opera; but then there are others
with a plaintive strain running through
them resembling with wonderful close
ness the wall of the old Irish melodies.
A DINNER AT TOXIC.
Probably the most artistic of this
worlds circle of dinners was one given
to me at Toxic, in Japan, which en-
bodied the elaborate and ancient cere-
mony of the Cha-no-yu with a most
excellent repast. 1t was a delightful
rickshaw drive through Shieba Park,
and then through shop-lined streets
until one got out amongst the villas
and gardens of the bay, which stretch
ed out on the left, CLASSY calm, and re-
fleeing the reeds that grew far out
from the shore. 1t is very bad form
not to arrive punctually. Two other

guests had just alighted before u.s.
One of them was great authority on
tea ceremonies, and the other was the
greatest artist in landscape gardening
in Japan. An attendant guided us
through the labyrinth walks of the gar
den to the waiting-room, a little thatch-
ed summer-house built of bamboo,
where ordinary tea was ready for us.
A panel was drawn back, and there
, was our host bowling his greeting to US.
You must be hungry" he said: II
will go and prepare something for you
to eat at once"-and he retired, sliding
the panel of the door after him. A few
minutes afterwards he signified that he
was ready. Then, led by the principal
guest, we went to the door at the other
side of the house. On the way he stop
ped where a spring of the clearest wa
ter flowed into a rough-hewn stone
basin, and poured some over his hands
from a little cup fitted with a long
bamboo handle. We then entered the
tea-room by a low door. 1t was a tiny
room, severely plain in style and eX-
quisitely clean. 1t was lighted from the
roof and from window near the door.
There was no decoration or ornament
Whatever except the kakemono-a
beautiful picture of a cock by the cele-
brated Chinese artist, Mokkei. On the
picture, which was four hundred and
fifty years old, the Japanese priest
Hogetsu, two hundred years after it
was painted, had written some verses.
Now the cock was suggestive of the
morning correctly speaking, our de-
jeuner should have been at an earlier
hour, and the ceremony of Cha-no-yu
hot oil ~, soft iocr Of fI,n n-f
and the vessels used should be in har-
mony with the season. The verses that
this confident poet had dared to write
on the margin of the picture were as
follows: 'In the stiffness of a deep
valley in the mountains the faint
growing of the cock is heard afar, and
the murmur of the pine trees-perhaps
it is only the pine trees I hear-any-
how, what matter? L will to sleep
again" Very reverentIy the chief
guest knelt and bowed before this
work, even as he would have saluted
it's artist, and he and the others ex-
amined it carefully and then took their
places.
A panel was drawn aside and our host
entered with a box of charcoal to re-
plenish the fire, which was sunk in a
llllie SQudIe IetSpldGlc llSetI tiie CCllCl
of the floor The arrangement of the
thick black sticks of charcoal and the
thin white ones was watched atten-
lively, as it was artistic in itself. He
carefully wiped away the finest vestiges
of dust with feather and then from
a gold-lacquered box produced two lit
tie balls of incense, which he put on
the glowing charcoal, and placed the
round bronze pot in position over the
fire. A fine, delicately aromatic per-
fume presently diffused itself through
the air-not that heavy, overpowering
incense used in churches, but clean,
aDpetizing, refined.
He retired and presently returned
bearing a red-lacquered tray, support
ed on four short legs, on which were
three covered bowls and saucers for
sake. One contained rice. the other
soup, and the third crab. The recollec-
