PASSOVER WEEK.-As stated yester-
day the Feast of Passover begins this
evening and lasts seven days. During
the entire week the eating of
lcayened food by the faithful
is forbidden. The staff of life gives
way 10 the matzoth, palatahle
wafer. This is not as is often errone-
ously supposed the sole article of diet.
Instead OF restricting the consumption
of food, the Passover week is real y
one of feasting in the average jewish
household, marking as it does the ad-
vent of many toothsome dishes set
apart, as it were, for this particular sea-
son, As is generally the case, the fes-
tival comedies in date with the Easter
holidays. Both being reckoped by the
full of the moon there is nothing espe-
cially remarkable in this.

A CHINESE DODGE.
Scheme to Give the Government Photo
graphs That VIII Fade

A clever scheme of the willy Chinaman
to evade the Chinese registration act mas
been discovered by government detec-
tivessin Philadelphia.
While passing through chinatown
the other day the detective notlced a
Chinaman unloading aphotograph APP
paratus from wagon. AS cameras do
not usually form part of the furnish
inps of the homes of the Chinese the de-
tective's suspicious were aroused. He
followed up his man, and in few days
he had learned the essential details of
the plan the Chinese have taken to avoid
the registration act.
The act requires the Chinese to have
their pictures taken and to file them at
the office of the internal revenue col
lector The picture is pasted on the GER
tiicate of registration, and Chinalnan
can be compelled to go before the collec-
tor and be identified by his photograph
if any question of his legal right to be in
this country is raised. The Philadel-
phia Chinaman with the camera has been
taking lessons in photography and in the
art of using preparation that will cause
a photograph to grow dim and faded
within year. When the registration
act goes in force next May the Chinese
of Philadelphia will have their artistic
countrymen photograph them. and after
applying his fading preparation to the
picture it will be filed with Collector
Brooks. Within a year the picture will
be so dim that it will be almost unrec-
ognizable, and Collector Brooks will be
unable to tell whether the man before
him is the original of the photograph or
recent Importation from China. 1t is
said that the scheme has been transmit
ted to the Chinese In al the large cities
of the country, and that photography is
being zealously studied by the celestial
inhabitants.
