Water Scarcity.

People in the Eighteenth and
Twentieth Wards are complaining,
with some justice, regarding the way
in which they get their water. Dur
ing these cold spells it is turned deWn
the main creek only few hours each
day, and in some of the smaller
bitches which this main one supplies
it is claimed it is rarely ever allowed
to run at all, and if the inhabitants
who look to these small secs for their
water want it handy and as they are
entitled to receive it, they are obliged
to 90 away up to the main dilch and
turn it on themselves. This should
be remedied.

FEEDING THE DEAD.
A Strange Chinese Rite Performed
" gSs ) in This City. 'N''f+
Philadelphia Chronicle. ]


Over the grave of MukShaung,
a Chinaman buried in MachpeIah
Cemetery, at Tenth street and
Washington avenue, strange
ceremony took place yesterday.
The deceased Celestial departed
this life April 10, 1915, and once
every three months parties of
Cinnamon, varying in number
from three to five, hold a pow
WOW over the grave and so thro'
the ceremony that in the fiowery
kingdom is called feeding the
dead" Yesterday three China
men appeared at the cemetery,
and, after burning slips bearing
inscriptions III Chinese charac-
ters over the grave, produced
from a hamper they carried four
plates, cups and sancers. "A
chicken was then dissected, "a por-
ton of it being laid upon each
plate. Oranges were produced
and the cups being filledwith tea,i
three Celestials went solemn
ly through the ceremony Of eat
ing, the food from the fourth
plate being dumped upon the
grave in, order that the spirit Of
the deceased should have its por-
ton. Tapers mounted in bam-
boo sticks were then placed in
the grave and lighted,after which
the, Celestials quilted the ceme-
terry. 4..
At these ceremonies the mour-
ners occasionally vary the bill
of fare, bringing other kinds Of
meat, or fruit and rice. a large
vase Of the latter was buried i'm
mediately over the breast and is
supposed to furnish the ghost
with what sustenance is needed
between the quarterly banquets.
1t is the invariable rule with the
Chinese to take the bones of the
dead back to the fowery king
dom, out of which no good ,Ce-
Ilestial can rest In peace. In the
course of two or threetyears Muk
EShaung's bones will be taken UP
and forwarded to his birth place.
His fellow-countrymen have SO
far gone back upon their tradi-
tions as to furnish him with a
marble lgravestone of Mclean
pattern. The inscription was
| Icut after a pattern furnished on
papeR and consists of Il line of
| Chinese characters running from
top. to bottom. What the char
acters mean none but the China
men know, and they won't tell
Another Chinaman buried near
Muk Shaung has not such a hap
py destiny. He married a negro
woman, and was expelled from
the Celestial brotherhood. The
wife saw to his burial, but his
bones are negIected,and no feasts
occur over his grave; neither IL
his dust ever return to the land
lof his birth.

Had a Choice.

The fight at Blackburn's Ford,
just TO the left of Bull Run,
was opened by the Second Mas
sachusetts infantry. Supported
by Il New York and two Mich
igan regiments, they advanced
INTO the woods until they heard
something drop. The regiment
bumped up against eutrench-
ments, and subjected to a tire
mendous fire. Before going into
the woods, the regiment was
stressed" as on parade, and the
Colorcl rode out and said:
"Men of Massachusetts. the
eyes of your country are upon
you'll"
There was a grand yell, and
they went into conquer or die.
After 10 minutes desperate
fighting, they retired from the
woods TO reform behind the sup
ports. Among the last was an
old man. He had thrown away
coat, hat gun and all accoutre-
ments and he was badly C!emor-
alized. As~he passed the left
flank Of a Michigan regiment in
line of battle, a wag called out:
"Only eight hundred miles to
Bostonp
The old man halted for a mo-
ment, and another joker observ-
ed:
"The eyes of your country are
upon youl"

in connubial management on
behalf of their daughters. They
are not generally, we imagine,
more inclined to management
iof this sort than mothers of 9th
er nationalities; but some of
them display so remarkable a
talent for settling their girls adj
Ivantageously that they have
made a name for their entire
tribe. A Paris newspaper gives
a recent instance Of the great
success of, an American mamma
of the peculiar order. Her eld-
est daughter had sailed from
New York with some friends
for tour Of Europe, and, after
doing the Continent, had re-
turned to the French capital for
several months Of rest and pleas
-uring. Attractive and clever,
she had many snitors, some more,
some less desirable. She could
not marry them all so she adroit-
ly reduced the number 10 two
the best of the lot, Of course.
Then she wrote the fact TO her
mamma, adding that they were
both so handsome, agreeable,
well-connected and rich that she
could not decide between them,
and closed with the question,
"What shall | do?" Ten days
later she received a eablegram
from mamma, II sail tomorrow.
Hold both till | come" The
next transatlantic steamer car
ried Mrs. - with her younger
daughter, turned Is, and just
out of school. On arrival she
Immediately took the helm of
affairs, and steered SO deitly
through the dangerous waters,
that in a few weeks she reached
port with all colors flying.
To drop metaphor, she attended
the wedding of her two daugh-
ters at the American chapel the
same morning. After due ex-
animation, she had decided that
that neither of the nice fellows
should go out of the family.
