Mr.. G. -. Hillebrant of Oakland
California arrived in Denison last
week for two weeks visit with his

us that San Francisco is being rapidly
rebuilt and that it will be a finer
city than ever before. He claims that
Frisco was no wickeder than other
towns of its size AMI does not go much
on the idea that the earth quake was
a visitation of Providence on the sins
of the city. He says he is not bit
afraid of earthquakes there in the
future and that the people feel very
confident that there will be no repeti
ton of the disaster as is evidenced by
the extensive plans for rebuilding the
city. Mr.. Hillebrant leaves Denison
for European trip and will be alb
sent for some time.

lafcadio Hearn's Testimony a. to
Strength Of Japanese Vino.

There is no liquor in the world upon
which a man becomes SO quickly In.
toxicated as Japanese sake (rice
wine). and yet none of which the ef-
fects last so short a time. The in
toxication is pleasant as the effect OF
opium or hasheesh. It is soft, pleas
ant, luminous e~xhilaration. everything
becoming brighter, happier. lighter;
then YOU get very sleepy.
At Japanese dinners 1t is the rule to
become slightly exhilarated, but not to
drink enough to talk thickly or walk
crooked. The ability to drink at ban
Quets requires pr~actice-long practice.
There + banquets Of many kinds,
and the man who Is invited to one at
which extensive drinking may be ex-
pected is careful to start in upon an
empty or almost empty stomach. BY
not eating n can drink a good deal.
The cups are very small and of many
curious shapes, One may be expected
to empty so. A quart of sake is a good
deal; two quarts require iron nerves
to stand. But among the Japanese
there are wonderful drinkers. AT a
military officers banquet a captain
offered me a tumbler holding a good
pint of sake. | almost tainted at the
sight Of 1t, for 1t was only the first.
But a friend said to me: Only drink
q little and pass 1t back" which | did.
