Chinese New Year.

The Chinese New Year occurs on the
18th instant. which ushers in the eleventh
year Of the reign Of Kiyang Shu, the pres
ent Emperor of China. The Chinese New
Year differs from the Christian New Year
10 that it simply celebrates q new period
in the reign OF the monarch, and not q re-
llgious event. The occasion in China Is
always observed with great rejoicing, the
giving OF fessts, the explosion OF hre-crack-
ers and social calls. The celebration OF
the event virtually begins OF the first OF
February, and does not end until the
fifteenth OF the same month, the extension
of the festivities being for the purpose OF
giving persons living at distant points
sufficient time in which TO visit their
friends. During the period mentioned
business il suspended. and the people give
themselves up 10 enjoyment.
In this country there will be no marked
observance OF the occasion, except In San
Francisco, where the Chinese residents
will celebrate ii after the fashion OF the
fatherland. In Washington, where 1t Is
Estimated that there are only about twenty
five Cinnamon. outside Of the members OF
the Chinese Embassy. 1t Ii the intention 70
have q quiet celebration. The day will be
spent in f~easting and social calls, and no
work will be done. In New York. Balti-
more, Philadelphia and other large cities
the day will be- similarly honored. The
Chinese Embassy In Washington will prob
ably give a reception on the 18th OF Febru-
ary. but beyond this there will be no spe-
eisl observance OF the anniversary.
