Eour Degrees OF drunkenness.

There is Rabbinical traditionthat when
Noah planted the vine, Satan attended and
sacrificed a sheep, lion, an ape, and hog.
These animals were to symbolic the gra-
dations of ebriety. When a man begins to
drink he 'is meek and innocent as the
lamb; then becomes bold as the lion; his
courage is soon transformed into the fool
ishness of the ape; and at last he wallows
in the mire like hog.

THANKSGIVING.
A Few s'Acss Concerning '.The Day We
Celebrate

In pursuance with a time-hOnOTed Gus
tom, to-day has been set apart by the Presi-
dent Of tl.e United States as a day of
thanksgiving and praise to the Great God
who rules the universe, for the blessings
innumerable which have been shOwered
upon lis, as a nation, during the past twelve
months. The business houses generally
will be closed, and as will be seen by our
local columns, religious services will be
held to-day at the leading churches of the
city.
This is eminently day of sOciability
and good cheer-a day when one should
feel at peace with himself and all the
world.
IN THE OI.DEN TINE.
The first Thanksgiving Day in America
was proclaimed and observed in the colony
Of Massachusetts,, under circumstances of
deep distress, in the winter Of 1912. In
its early history, the day was observed in a
much more aUsteTe manner than at present,
being necessarily tinctITed by the severity
which marked the Puritan character, and
in those days Thanksgiving sermon (al-
ways of doctrinal character) was from two
to four hours in length.
Thanksgiving Day is now peculiarly
American institution, and will probably re-
main so as long as the government stands.
The first national Thanksgiving dates back
to the third year of our Revolutionary war.
Friday, Oct. 81, TIT, the following resolu-
ton was adopted by Congress-:
"Besolved, That a committee of three
be appointed to prepare recommendation
to the several States to set apart day for
Thanksgiving for the signal success lately
obtained over the enemies of the United
States"
The committee drew up their document
and recommended that Thursday, Dec. 10,
be observed. On the 18th of October,
1870, Congress recommended that Thurs
day, Dec. Z, be set apart as a day of thanks
giving and praise for the blessings with
which He had crowned the nation, and eS-
pecially for the failure of Arnold's treason,
and the succeeding year Thursday, Dec. 13,
was observed as day of national thanks
giving because Of the capture of CORVALLIS
and his army. Thursday, Feb. 10, 1895,
was set apart by President Washington as
a day of thanksgiving on account of the
suppression of the Whisky Rebellion in
Western Pennsylvania, and the second
Thursday in April, 1915, was appointed by
President Madison as a day of thanksgiv-
ing and praise on account of the war of
1872 having been brought to a close.
Of late years the festival has been gen
orally observed throughout the length ard
breadth of the land, and Thursday, Nov.
q, is becoming recognized as the most
suitable day for its observance. As our
readers celebrate it to-day, they viii have
the consciousness that it is also being OBJ
served by millions of their fellow country
men, and it is proper that it should be, for
as a people we have been favored by
Almighty God, above all the nations of the
earth

Finances Improving. The past few
days have witnessed such a distinct inn
provement in the financial situation of the
country, that there is little hazard in
prOpheysing a re-establishment of apparent
as well as real prosperity before the first of
the approaching new year. Almost all the
large business houses of the East that sus-
pended have proved their condition sound,
and have resumed business on favorable
terms for all parties concerned; almost all
the banks of reputation have retained the
confidence of their several communities,
and now find that their deposits are steadi-
ly on the increase, while commercial mat
tiers generally are resuming their wonted
channels. This growing prosperity is no
where more demonstrated than at the
rooms of our Public Library, where the
money for tickets for the next Gift Con-
cert comes pouring in and is constantly in
creasing in volume. No doubt desire to
assist the library, our great State institu-
ton, has something to do with this, but
the immense sums received indicate state
of healthy prosperity, and prove also that
the multitude want those twelve thousand
prizes which will be distributed on the Sd
of December. 1t

TIE CITIZEN acknowledges the receipt (from somebody of very useful and ac- curate photographic sketch of that DOT tion of Arizona passed over by the troops under command of General Crook, during the campaign against the hostile Apaches from November l5, 1872 to April 8, 1873. The sketch is compiled from original notes and information furnished by Cap tain George M Randall, 23d Infantry, Capt. J. N. Hamilton and Lieutenant F. Michler, 5th Cavalry, and Lieutenant A. O. Grant, lst Cavalry. It covers country from the Gila nOrthward to the San Fran cisco Mountains, and from the Juniper and other mountains about Camp Hualpai southwest to and including the Santa Te- resa and Graham Mountains. There is very little of all the country between the points named which has not been travers- ed by the troops and all important topo- features noted, and the sketch shows it to be very mountainous Who ever sent us the sketch, has our thanks for it.
