A Restaurant Order in Japan.

A traveller has written an amusing account Of his efforts to get some thing to eat when on d visit to Japan. m company with an artist friend he made his way into teahouse, where the two men were ushered by girl into a room simply but tastefully fur nished.
 The girl went out, and presently returned with a Iacquered tray hold ing two very small and shallow cups of colorless unsWeetened Japan tea, which she knelt and presented to us. We tried to explain to her, in English, French, German Russian and the sign language that we were famiSh- ng and wanted something to eat, but our efforts to be ineligible eIicited nothing save a look of embarrassment and a shy Japanese giggle.
 '' Try her with pictures. I suggest cd, You'll never put your artistic talent to better use Draw a fish. an egg, a loaf of bread and a bottle of beer and I'll go through the motions of eating and drinking them. That ought to fetch her.
 And it did.
 "A gleam of intelligence and pleas ed comprehension came into her face as she recognized the familiar objects, and with a giggle of delight she rose to her feet and rushed away to the kitchen to show the pictures to the other maids. When she returned at the expiration of half an hour, We ex- pected, of course. that she would bring the dinner. She offered us in stead two fresh and neatly folded bath gowns, a couple of Turkish towels and a cake of soap"

ArOuseS Interest.

Stanislaus Zbyszko. the Polish wrest-
ling wonder. has undertaken the hard
est task of his career by agreeing to
take on Constant lie Marin and Ray
mond Cazeau in a finish match for one
fall each on the same night
In addition the Pole must pin the
shoulders of the two giants to the mat
in one hour. actual wrestling time. or
lose his entire end Of the purse.
This attraction viii be staged at the
Globe theater on Monday, Feb "a. by
prove the best match of the season.
Wise ones predict nothing but fail
ure for the Polish star, especially as
regards the one-hour limit, and the
general opinion is that for once Jack
Hermann has been tricked into a bad
match.
Cazeau is a rough house italian who
sas made a hit by his rushing method
of wrestling. In his recent encounter
with Zbysxko in this city he put up a
game fight against the Pole. and the
spectators were more than pleased with
the exhibition.
La Marin. dubbed the white hope
of the wrestling game. is the one that
10 looked to to give the Pole the strug-
gle of his career. He came here with
a European reputation of being one OF
the greatest Greco-Roman wrestlers
and since his advent has been gradual
ly developing his ability in the catch
as-catch- style of wrestling.
