JAPAN IS VEKY RAPIDLY BE COMING MODERNIZED. Improved Modes of Transportation Are Now to Be Seen Everywheie nnd the Prices in n Rule Ate Chenp Some Expeilences of nu American Tom 1st in the Land of the Mikado. TolOo Letter In Chicago ltecoul One of the most common ami most importitlit Indications of n gtcut ehnnge In the llfp and civilization of Japan Is to be tern in tlip Improved modes of lpvrl nnd transportation. The an clcpt method, though In some sections Ini' horses and oen weie u?ed, was rrhPiitla'ly pedcstllnn. The common poplc tia velvet on foot and cairlrd or dingged ovee tlir toad their own bag page or freight. ' Coutlcra. cunylng lit' iiiMt Impoitfitil dispatches, lelled upon lleetness of foot. Tlio higher classes and wealthy people, even though not themselves making any e eitlons In their own behalf, were nriicd about In vehicles by coolies, who. with their human litiidens, tiampcd fiom place to place On wat er too, travel and transportation de pended mostly upon human muscular exertion, as all boatp, small or large, had to be propelled by o.tis or poles rcept when fnvcued with a bierze to swell the sails and allow the boatmen a respite fiom their toll. Hut all tills haul labor developed, of com he, a stictigth i f limb and a power of en durance tlint even In tecent yeair have crnblcd the Japanese snldleis to match nnd fight In elthet tbe pli'iciug iold and deep snow of Mum Inula or the hllstoilng heat of rmnicivn. A life of i onstant outdoor exposure to wind, tain, ft 1.1 or bent has toiiKhened and In owned the skin nnd made an alto gether hardv race out of the common people, while the lack of this regular pmtcIsp and (allsthenle training has left Its mark In the compaintlvely weak i niiMltutlors of thop who traveled, not on their own fet, but on the should tis of others. The common vehliles of the olden lavs wetp ordinal y cnits for freight and "notimono" and "kago" for pas sengi'is. The "norlmono" Is a good orod svdan-chair or paluwiuln. In which the tlder ca.i sit In a falrlv comfoi tabic position. The "kago" Is a suit of basket In vvhlth the ttaveler takes a half-sitting, half-tee lining pos ture, not altogether eontfortable at least, for ta'l foreignei. At present the "norlmono" is seldom If ever ein plovej except fee- corpses or invalids, but the "kago" I" still used In moun talnou't legions, vvheie nothing ele Is available. It must be understood, of e-oui.se, that the nobles and their re tainers often lode on horseback, but the cleat maw of the people walked, onel the few tode In "kago" ot "norlmono." N'ow, however, modes of ttavel have i hanged gieatly, and aie still changing veat by j oar. There ate still many P'-destt latin, the "kago" is yet to be (. n boats are Mill piopelled by stcrn enii oai or laboriously pushed along with polen, and pack-henses and oxen even In the stieets of Tokvo ate In fiequent u-e. Hut there aie many other means of communication and ti unspent jttlnn. There have come into se the hoise car, th" stage, the "Jin ilkisha," the tallroad, with the tele grnpli and the telephone; the modern towboat, the steamboat, the bicycle and the electtic tailway, with the electiic light to show the road by night. An excellent postal sjstem and vail ous other model n contilvances for fa- Hltating the means of communication have been adopted run roujinn capital. I had occasion onee to take a tlip to the f in mer capital, Kyoto. In the old dovs travelets might have proceeeled along the Tokaldo, or eastern sea toad. Now they may go the entlte distance over a railway, which or most of the wa follows the old road. The tialns em this line, as on all Japanese lall was, except a shoit one In the island of Vezo, ate opetated on the Kngllsh plan, with the block system.

On their anival in Ameiica some of the gloves were affected with little spots, hardly discernible ex cept to an expei t. but it placed them in the category of "soiled gloves" and the iWaiine Insurance company, with whom they were insured, had to stand a loss of 7 cents a pair on them.
