Ouo of the best of thu early stories of the .lapanoso if the "Takelori no Okiim no Monocular ! , " or , as translated by Mr. Victor IJk'kctis and publishi'il un der the title of "The- Old liamlmo Hewei-'a Story. " The midorlyiut , ' ideas in it are obviously ChinuM ! . sajs the AUiominitii. but the tresitirii'iit hears the iniprobs of a moro hiuik'itmtivo rare , and ; told in the words of Mr. Dickens , it becomes a jinieeful nnd interesting story. Of Ihu bamboo huwor , litUu is said and no hint tfivcjii of the hidilon virtue which marked him out as ti favorite of the tfods. Hut just as the glory of ISuddha appears only to the oy ' * of the faithful on Iho ho-oiu of the nmts which spread over the valleys bonuath the mountain temples of the ROI ! and the relics which to ordinary mortals luivo the snmblunco of dusl < y beads shine in the sight of tin ; devout believers as lustrous tear drops , so to the ijious bamboo bower nlono was rovealcd in the heart of n bamboo stem a shining light < jn- conipa ing a lovely llguro of a tiny infand. With reverent care the woodman carried home tlio child , who irrew into a maiden of such surpassing loveliness- ) that all tlio nobles in the laud bought her in mar riage. With her pros3iieo canu for tune to her protector , whoso only dread was that the time would arrive whoii ho should lose the delight of her society by her marriage. But lo his joy ho found that hho was us unwilliiii'to accept tho1 lionmgo of her suitoras ho was un willing to bestow her hand. Five of her noble lovers , however , so persistently urged their suits that she had recourse to the expedient which in fairy tales of all nations is invariably adopted by unwilling brides. To each she seta task as ditllcult to accomplish as "nuni- boring sands and drinking oceans dry.1' The lir-l she S'-nt in quest of the Holy ( trail , the sacred bogging bowl of Liiuklha ; the second was ordered to bring anil lay at her hvt a branch from the tree whoso roots are of silver , whoso trunk is of gold , and wlio-so fruitage i of pure white jade , which grows on the sacred mountain of Horai ; the third was commanded to present her with a fur robe of the pelt of Ihe llaiuo-proof rat ; from the fourth she required "the rain bow hued jewel that hides its sp.u-Klo deep in the dragon's head1 ; an.l the fifth was charged with the search of the cowry shell winch the swallows bring over the broad Mja plain. It is nefdle-s to say that one and all failed lo fulfill Ihe required conditions. Meanwhile Ihe milcado- heard of the buanty of the inaidon , and. like the ' kings' in the Gorman forests , the Htis- siau wilds , and tlio Indian mountain' , he , under the pretense of hunting , approached preached the woodman s cottage and succeeded in catching a glimpse of tlio lovely form of the lady Knguya. So enamored did be become of the vision that he besought her to share his throne. Hut no better did he faro than the other lover : ! , and was fain to put up with an occasional letter in reply to the missives which ho con stantly' dispatched to the woodman's hut. 'At length the Lady Kaguya an nounced to her protector that the time bad come for her lo return to her homo in the moon , whence she had originally descended to earth. And , though on the appointed night a strong guard was posted around the house by order of the mikado lo prevent the Might of the maiden , a troop of heavenly being , es corting a chari'iot. descended through the air and bore away tiieir pri/.e to her celestial abode. HE PLAYED THE GIRL. Donning Female At tire to Il His Sister atal'ariy. A certain light coinple.xioned young man. with no visible signs of a board , and his charming sister , Fannie , look a treed deal alike , says the Albany ( N. Y. ) Telegram. A pink domino parly was given at the house of a lady on Stallord street , West Troy , and Miss Fannie was invited. She was im full of fun as her brother , and when the latter requested that ho bo allowed to take her best dress and attend the party .she readily conbonte.d. Wednesday evening Fannie assisted Jlarr.v in gutting the tonmlo toggery on , anil arranged the bustle to perfection. When thu jaunty little hat wasp ) HOLM ! upon h is hoailgoar of switches and frontpicco , ho looked too sweet for anything. Ho looked exquisite , and she cautioned him to bo careful about crossing his logs at the party or bitting down all ever llio. bustle. Harry promised to bo careful , and af ter the last bit of powder hail been aji- nliud to his cheeks lie sallied fortn. Fannie ( or Harry ) was the boll of the ball. Ho was kissed by a score of fair maldoiiB , which caused the red blood to How to his powdered chocks and made him look moro lovely , Harry was al lowed to outer the dressing rooms , and it was all lie could do to talk as near like liis sibter as possible , He was en gaged for every dance , and was escorted to biippor by a prominent young citizen who now is curbing his stupidity in not knowing that ho was ] K > uring his love into the car of a mini. Harry was es corted homo nnd those who atlondud tlio allair would never have known the secret , but Fannie could not keep it , and just told it to ono young lady who attended the party. The story is now all over town and there are a do/.cn young moil who would line to punch liis head and any number of girls who feel like scratching his eyes out for the things that they &uid in his hearing.

The special committee at the meeting of the supreme council , Knight of Pythias , to whom was referre.l the Pennsylvania mat ter , report , first : To sustain the supreme chancellor ; secondly , to reinstate the grand lodge of Pennsylvania , provisionally , for tiio purpose of making amendments that are re quired ; thirdly , "that thu Institution of the 'loyal' grand ledge is not approved , and is declared null und of no effect ; " fourthly , "thai it is hereby imperatively unjoinod upon Iho gr.mil lodgo" to refrain from any pun ishment of any subordinate lodges loyal to the supreme chancellor , but all shall bo on the same footing ; llfthly , that the reprcscnt- ntlvcs from the two grand lodges who came to present the case bo paid mileage and per diem the same as thu supreme representa tives. In a supplemental rcpjrt the committee , wnich included Hon.V. . 11. Gulo und Hon. John Van Valtcenberg , I' . S.

A number of years ago , says if writer in the San Francisco Examiner , wo investigated somewhat i-ito the origin and history of fra ternal co-operation , aid : were surprised , gratified and , in fact , astonished at thu ago and success of scores of such organizations throughout the world , and us recently there have been published some articles denying that fraternal co-operation is of any ugi1 , or has any stability , or can be permanent , the following facts and cjmments are j'iven : The oldest fraternal bencllcinl society in the w.'rid is the Count doVinton society , nrjranUiid In ll l , and is still in existence. The next oldest is the Loyal Kvanus society , established in IMS. The registrar of Eng land ivp.cts eighty-nine friendly or bene ficial societies in ex stance that were orga nised in the seventeenth century , and over 1KK ( ) such societies thill are over fifty years old. In England Itl.T.Vi friendly societies are reported , with 7OJO,000 members. Tlio Hny.il Liver Friendly society , organised in l-fiJ. reports S ! > "iOTi , ( members. As the old world for many years has proved the value of these organization ! ) , it lias gone beyond any experiment and meets the patronage and i o-'opi-ratiou ol the people. In this country tlio co-operative feature is comparatively new , but as years roll by the great practical value and necessity of sucli organizations will be manifest to all. For a time there was a great spirit of hat red and jealousy on the part of life insur ance companies toward the secret benevolent association. * . The life insurance companies liave connto see and know that these fra ternal societies have educated the people up to life , and especially endowment insurance1 , and almost abolished the objections made by wives and children. Peonlo have learned that taking out u policy deus not necessarily imply that a man is Koing to dm immediately , or Hint the paying of it premium is equivalent to a dose of strychnine , and thousands now hold life and endowment policies that before these fraternal societies liimlliari/cd the pub- lie with the idea , won d have looked upon a iifo insurance agent as they would some fore runner of a pestilence. Tlio feeling toward Iho benevolent as sociations has not hecn of recent date. In Ib.Yi the leading actuary of the world said it was impossible for the Odd Fellows to pay ? . " > per week sick benefits und $75 funeral benefits on f ! or W per year dues ; hut at the end of thirty years that mime act uary Is now ono of thu foremost advocate ? of the truth that co-operative endowment Is feasihlo and pc'i-mam'iil. The public gen erally are coming to know these facts , and for this reason , if nothing else , the growth of all tlio orders having benevolent endowment associations connected with them is no rapid and permanent. io Senate. Thu annual meeting of the senate of the A. O. U. W. was held at Cleveland , Ohio , recently. In addition to all the old senators the following members appeared ut their first annual meeting : Messrs , J. DoWolfo , Columbus , Ohio ; L. K. Parks , Toledo , Ohio ; F. K. Smith , Saginaw - inaw , Mich. ; J. N. Study , Hichmond , I ml. ; G. H. lliifgins , Warren , Pa , ; G , W. Dexter and John Fairbanks , Chicago. The senate now consists of twenty-tivo members , eight een of them having been elected by assem blies duriiiK Iho past four years , which indi cates thu cltaniro that lias been made in the composition of Iho body. Among Iho important nmtterH brought before the meeting might bo mentioned the regular monthly assessment onihelOth ; another , requiring that a copy of thu application bo attached to the benefit certificate , in order to conform to thu laws of some of the suites in cases where fraud maybe bo siiK.ecteil. | The article rclatluc to hiuard- ous occupations wus thoroughly recon structed , and passenger conductuis wcro ex- ceptcd from the list. A niiinbur of important propositions came before the meeting , but were voted down. Among them wore- The reducing of the maximum benefit to ? 3,000 ; ono calling for u biennial cession of tlio senate ; a proposition to strike out the suicide clause and u number of minor changes , F. N. Gage , of Chicago , was elected presi dent for the ensuing year. Lakeside , near Sunduaky , O. , was selected us the place for holding the next meeting. Tlio Pennsylvania Cane. When the meeting of the supreme lodge , Knights of Pythias , was in session at Cin cinnati the supreme council to whom the Pennsylvania dlttlculty was referred took tlio following action ; It approved the action of Supreme Chancellor Howard Douglass in suspending the grand lodge , agreeing that Ihe grand lodge charter should be restored conditionally upon their complying with the orders of the supreme chancellor heretofore issued. The grand ledge is placed under the order of the supreme chancellor until such action is taken. Tlio supreme lodge refused to admit the representative from tlio old or loyal grand ledge until the orders originally issued by Supreme Chancellor Douglass were obeyed. At the following day's session it adopted the report of the committee on en dowment rank , authorizing the board of con trol of that department to levy an assessment in addition to one per month , as licretofoie , when necessary. The ledge adopted a reso lution declaring explicitly that no authority has ever been granted for the creation of a ledge of colored knights , and that no colored man can lawfully bo admitted to any lodge. * Good Templar Oflteers.

An honor , almost without precedent in the annals of Freemasonry in New York slale , says un exchange , was conferred upon Grand Master Fnlnk J { . Lawrence , at tl.o annual meeting of the Grand , lodge in New York city hist week. lie was elected to a fourth term as grand master , a distinction which has been enjoyed , it is said , by only ono man before him , Mr. Lawrence has dovotcd his best energies during hm three years as grand master to the payment of the big debt upon the Masonic Uiinplo , und has been so far suc cessful that only about $75,000 remains to be liquidated. The debt has been decreased f 100,000 during the past year , and there is ovcry reason to believe that another year will see the temple free from debt. All of thu old oIllecrH were re-elected at Ihu same lime wllh Brother Lawrence , and every past grand muster living was present , except two. * Alioul OdtPillown.
