THE HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR.
The Local Chinese Residents Will
Commence Celebrating.
rhs U.n.I Programme with the E1ceP-
ton of FIreWOrks-ReeePtio by
the Chinese Society.

Notwithstanding hard times and
discouraging war news, the local
Chinese will celebrate their New
Year. The festivities will begin
this morning and will last for sew
eral days, at the least. 1t usually
takes a week to celebrate the great
national holiday properly, but the
Chinese say they have no money
this year and will commence again
on next Monday to hustle for the
aimble Hawaiian quarter or dime,
as the case may be.
These are trying times for house
keepers who will have to cook their
own indigestible biscuits for a few
days, or else have their family live
on red papers, Chinese nuts and
candies, the usual offering from the
domestic about this time. While
they are trying their patience over
a stove that won't cook, or kettle
that WON'T boil, their cook will be
strutting around Chinatown dressed
in his best suit of clothes.
All of the Chinese merchants
will keep open house today. Theil
friends will be welcomed and
"many happy returns will be ex
changed. The different meat shops
will be open and the usual exhlbi
ton of vanished pig and Jerkeo
fowl will be seen. Large lanterns
will be placed outside of each store
in fact, the usual programme vii
be carried out with the exception
of fireworks. This is tabu by orde
of the police authorities.
The rooms of the Chinese Socle
ty, on King street, will be ope1
from II m. until 2 p. M, where 60,
Kim, the Commercial Agent, anc
the prominent Chinese merchants
will receive callers. The Hawaiian
band will furnish music for the oc
casion.

We Charge Less
For Perfect Work

than you have been used to paying for
inferior work right along.
AS matter of fact the ExPERT( p who
cleans your watch with pair of bellows
and a crow-bar for so cents makes more
money than the honest workman who
does an honest job and charges an
honest price.
Because your watch is returned to you
running fairly we'll, it is no criterion that
it has been properly repaired. The great
annoyance attendant upon the repair
ing of a watch, is that SO out of SO cannot
tell if the work is we'll done-but are
satisfied If the watch is keeping some
| where near the correct time.
Who can see the jewel protruding half
way out of the plate, or worse, sunk down
through the plate, fastened in with a
| little glue, or hammered in with sledge.
How often the EXPERT grinds off the
broken staff, sinks the jewel q little
lower, tells you he has put in a new
staff and charges you little less than
| the price and you 60 on your way rejoic-
ing. But some day you will discover the
fraud, such work cannot last long. 1t is
dear at any price, which you soon dis
cover to your SORROW.
| Moral: Make no mistake; take il
where you know it will be well treated
and that is the Repairing Department o

CHANGING KEY TO STEM WINDERS

repairing complicated watches OF every
description; demagnetizing; making by
hand any lost part of complicated
watch; in fact any difficult work pertain
ing to the repairing of fine watches is
our especial forte.
The number of watches which find
their way into our Repairing Department
after having been through the hands OF
numerous EXPERTS (?)is.beyond belief.
Whilst we are at all times ready
and willing to do every conceiv-
abe kind and condition of a job
would it not pay you better to
bring your watch to US in the FIRST PLACE
and be assured of an honest amount OF
work at reasonable price, rather than
take it from one to another, causing you
delay and annoyance, TO say rothing oil
the greater expense?

GOV. LORD APPOINTS A STATE CON-
MlTTEE FOR THE MEXICAN IN
TERNATIoNAL EXPOSITION.

Governor Lord, at the earnest nolicita-
lions of the representatives of the Moxi-
ear government, has appointed the fol-
lowing wsll-known and experienced busl-
ness men of the state of Oregon to act as
a state committee for the Mexican inter-
national exposition, which Is TO open on
or about the 18th Of September, 1896:
Hon. j p. Apperson, Oregon city.
Hon. r. b.. Beekman, Jacksonville.
Mr.. ANU Elmore, Astoria.
Mr.. j. w. French, The Dalles.
Mr.. Nathan Pierce. Milton.
Hon. J. b. Waldo, Maclean.
Mr.. Il. G. Pensland. Independence.
The duty imposed upon these gentle
men will be making propaganda for the
exposition among the manufacturers, as
1t will be the means of opening up a new
market of great extent, which has been
very much overlooked by the export trade
Of the United States.
After noticing the forward movement
of the Mexican nation, 1t can be readily
understood that the needs of the people
are increasing proportionately and tina
a market of enormous value Is being
opened to the world.
The object of the exposition Is to bring
about a closer relation between the sister
republics by making this one of the most
extensive eXpositions ever held, not eX.

be attended to.

THE ORIGINAL MOTHER GOOSE

IN. Y. Herald.l

NNs AANioANfI
1.-THE idea that Mother Goose is n fic-
titious peTonage," said Albert Goose, at
the Fifth Avenue hotel the other day, lis
such n common supposition that II Is In
deed a task to make any one believe
otherwise. The ditties and songs of this
narrator of nursery rhymes and melodies
have become so well known In the minds
of children throughout the world that
they now rank as first in the thousands
of volumes of ancient and modern nur-
sely literature,
But as to the impression that there
vas no such a person as Mother Goose,
II Is erroneous. She was my great-great-
sreat-grandmother.
she was one of many children of a
wealthy and influential family in Boston,
where she was born, and lived the best
years of her life. Her eldest daughter.
Elizabeth, was married in 17l5 to a
printer named Thomas Fleet. Fleet was
an industrious young fellow, whose ex-
elusive habits and reserved amer made
him the central character In many Jokes
told by a host OF friends.
I'm due course of time Fleets wife
ave birth to a son. Fleets mother-in-
law, whom he called Mother Goose was
In ecstncies over the event. Her Joy
could not be suppressed, and she went
about the house singing homemade
rhymes.
Fleet invited his friends TO his home.
but on account of the manner In which
his mother-in-law acted he was subjected
to n great deal of ridicule.
He tried to explain to his friends that
he was a man of quiet and was himself
opposed to- his mother-in-law's strange
actions, as he termed them, but his
friends saw their opportunity for laugh
ter, aud after a while called Fleet
Mother Goose
- Mother Goose in time became very
annoying TO the whole nelghborhood, and
atter Fleet had exhausted his wits i'm
trying to suppress the joy Of his mother
ln-law' he was compelled to submit.
Finally he concluded to collect the
rhymes and dltties he had heard and pub
lish them for the express purpose OF
ridiculing his mother-in-law, as he Is sup
posed TO have said for the world in gem
erel md Thomas Fleet In particular
Soon the book was published IN Ter
the title OF Rhymes for the Nursery: or
Mother Goose Melodies for Little Chill
dren.'
The book had the desired eject. mas
much as his mother-in-law felt abashed
at its mockery. and the whole nelghbor-
ai knew then that Fleet did not APP
prove of her JOY.

THE FoRTY-FIFTH STATE.

A great many people think that Utah
Is now a full-1edged state. This, how
ever, is an error. There is no regular
method of admitting states. The various
enabling acts passed by congress have
not prescribed the same course of pro-
cedure whereby a territory shall become
a state. The provisions Of the Utah act
are not all carried out as yet, and until
they are 1t remains a territory.
That provides that a state constitution
shall be prepared by a regularly chosen
convention, which constitution should be
submitted to the voters for ratification
at the election of November 8. These
things have been done. A convention
was held, a constitution was prepared and
at the recent election the people voted
on the adoption or rejection of that in
strument. The vote was in Its ravor.
The act further provides that the re-
suit of this election is to be formally
that body shall find that he provi:!ons
of the enabling act have been compiled
with in due form, and that the new con-
s.itution was adopted by u majority vote,
IL shall certify these facts to the presi-
dent of the United States. The ate
then authorizes him to issue his procla-
cation OF the constitution by the people
and the compliance with all the condi-
items of the enabling act, and "thereupon
Utah shall be deemed admitted to the
Union on an equal footing with the other
states.'
No action by congress is necessary.
The presidents proclamation is final, and
upon its issuance the one representative
and two senators from the new state will
be entitled to their seats. 1t Is TO be
noted, however, that the enabling act is
not mandatory on the president, hut per-
mlsslve. No time Is specified for his proc
lalnation. He may delay 1t as long as
lie may wish. II for any reason, politi-
cal or otherwise, he sees fit to postpone
issuing It, Utah will not become a state
until he does.
The law of congress regarding the ma
tional flag provides that the new star to
represent a new state shall be added on
the Fourth of July next following the adj
mission Of that state, Mr.. Cleveland's
proclamation will douhtlessly be issued
in ample time for the forty-lfth star to
be placed on the blue union on July 4,
1896.

The washington Pilot Commissioners, e
as they are termed, seem to be II pc
culiar body. Infinitely more Interested In
the acquiring of shekels than in the per-
petuatlon of a portion of the government
OF our sister state They grant "branch-
es" tat 800 a headl to any alleged pilot
that may come along and deliberately
shut their eyes TO inlringements of the
law which 1t is part OF their official duty
to prevent. The Washington pilot
schooner Loyal Is u vessel of thirty tons
burden which Is now engaged in the pilot
business at the mouth of this river. The
law Of Washington declares that no ves-
sci shall ply as a pilot schooner that is
under the burden OF sixty tons. Then,
again, the much-heralded Tubal Cain, the
second vessel of this powerful Washing
ton pilot fleet, now being built, Is to be n
lfty-five-ton schooner. Here are two
open violations of the law, but that does
not seem to trouble the worthy commits
sioners. The more schooners there ere,
no matter what their tonnage, the more
pilots there must be, and the more pilots
there are the more double eagles come
into the treasury of this honorable and
strictly business body. The governor
OF Washington ought to investigate,

ECONOMY IN FUEL.

The Eureka Fuel Econonizer is a sci
entifcal preparation which augments the
intensity Of coal and wood neat in the
proportion of 80 per cent.
If the direction printed on each pack
age is carefully observed, tine Eureka
Goa! Economlzer win give to any crdina-
ry or mlddling coal the same value as
THAT of superior quality.
The Eureka Fuel Econonizer prevents
the shoots, the cinders and the formation
of smoke, which may spoil, in an apart
ment, SO many valuable articles, such
ais curtains, paintings, etc.
THE Eureka burns any kind of gas
which might destroy the breatllDble air
apartments and factories in which 1t is
used are consequently more healthy and
comfortable. In less than five minutes,
one can obtain a very brisk fire which
win last thirty hours without being stirr-
ed up and without any addition OF fresh
coal. Hence an economy of coal, work
and money.
The Eureka Economizer produces a heat
more soft and more concentrated; when
a normal heat is wanted, the ventilation
must be parity stopped and, again, ar
economy in fuel is to be relied upon.
We guarantee that our preparation pro-
duces no injurious effect on the hearth,
and does not affect in any way stoves,
ranges, CRATES, etc.
