If there are "folks" on the planet Mars,
and If they are as much interested in our
earth as we are in their abode, they are
having an interesting time in Mars this
week. 1t will be some time before what our
astronomers are seeing is reliably made
known, and in the meantime there will be
a good deal of more or less fantastic talk.
For instance, the talk that the people of
Mars are really trying to attract our at
tention. By the use of much Imagination
and faith 1t is possible to believe that the
lights seen by the great Lick telescope are
signals to this earth. 1t appears that the
telescope has disclosed triangle formed
OF three great lights, seemingly placed on
three mountain tops far apart. They were
seen from the Lick observatory four nights
In succession. They did not burn steadily
as long as the part of tho planet upon
which they were seen was in the field of
vision, but went ont In an inexplicable
manner. They would fash out as soon as
darkness had set in, forming perfect tri-
angle. Then for few hours they would
burn steadily and brilliantly from their
mountain tops, and then all would 90 out
at once as II somebody had turned off an
electric current. At the same tIme great
dark shadows took their place.
II Mars is inhabited there Is nothing very
preposterous about the supposition that
Its inhabitants have as much curiosity az
we have and as good optical instruments.
The idea has struck us that signalling
might be carried on between US and them,
and perhaps the same idea has struck them.
But it will be wise not to get excited over
the matter. The conservative and trust
worthy astronomers do not yet offer en-
couragement to the glowing and somewhat
discredited ideas of Flammsrion. Profess
sor Holden says 1t will be at least fifty
years before we can know much about |
Mars. But while we are waiting we can |
try to learn the noble lesson drawn from |
the red planet by Longfellow and finely
set forth in his poem:

GREAT ACTIVITY NOTICED.
Consul Ii Yupg Yen's Proclamation Has the
Desired Effect Upon His Almond
Eyed Countrymen.

Ii Yung Yen. the Chinese Consul of this
city, issued an order ON Monday to cleanse
Chinatown.
This edict Is very much like the one
Angeas Of old thought the task he set for
Hercules would be:
Augeas and Ii Yung Yen both thought
what they desired to be done could not be
accomplished
But just as Hercules deceived old Augeas
so deceived the residents of the Chinese
quarters Ii Yung Yen yesterday.
There was never as much activity dis
played in the streets and alleys where the
Chinese principally reside than there was
yesterday morning.
The dump-cart and the scavenger made
their appearance in places where they had
never been seen bef0rs.
Rags, bags. bottles. bamboo mattings.
broken lamps and all kinds Of litter were
carted away all day long.
The yellow-faced. almond-eyed Mongo-
lians were thoroughly aroused
There is nothing In the world they dread
mnre than the cholera.
When the ConsuPs proclamation told them
that they had to clean up, In order to avoid
the scourge. they went to work at once.
Of course Chinatown can never be
cleaned. The only way TO make the houses
and easements now inhabited by Chinese
fit for white men is 20 tear them down and
excavate them anew.
But upper Dupont street and its adjoin-
ing alleys are to-day cleaner than they have
been for years.
Vice-Consul King Owyang and Marshal
Sellinger made the rounds of the Chinese
quarters yesterday morning in person to
see what effect the order to clean up had
had upon the Mongolians.
They were accompanied by Fee Chong
Tun, an agent OF the consolidated Chinese
six companies.
Great activity was found to prevail every
where.
Men, women and children were gathering
IN the debris and refuse which for months
had been allowed to accumulate, and they
piled 1t In heaps before their doors.
Carts aud wagons gathered in all this
rubbish and dumped il into the bay.
When the health inspectors visit the Chi
nese quarters they will find them as clean
as the average Monaghan considers they
ought 10 be TO come I'D TO the requirements
OF the C0DsuPs ukase.
