with its teeming millions of people, It IS
not to be wondered at that, when the rice
is safely gathered and the wheat gar
nered, all China should go into a deli
rum of joy. for, during one winter. at
least, the nation is protected against
the ravages of famine.

Viva la Reina!
Hail to her Majesty, Queen Francisco! (!
All hail to Youth and Beauty: to Mirth

Once again has her Majesty deigned

royal proclamation bid her loyal sub

and making forever notable La Fiesta de

The Fiesta! The term stimulates the
imagination and the mind is carried back
to the days of romance and chivalry;
to the days sometimes miscalled 1.-The
good old days" when the troubadour
sang of knightly deeds and the cross
hilted every knightly sword. And back
of that time the echo is caught up and
thrown back reverberating through the
long and dreary centuries, as nations
have risen to magnificent opulence and
power and then sunk beneath the sands
of time almost beyond the ken Of human
knowledge. But they all kept Fiesta

erhood linking the active, aggressive
personality of today with the Babylon
ian satrap, the Assyrian prince, the
Phoeniclan sailor or the Lazarus that
had his prototype in all nations of old,
as he has in the civilizations of today.
The Fiesta! The etymology of the
word feast" or Festival" Is hidden in
obscurity. BY some it is contended
that 1t is from the Latin "festum," from
the same root as fast; while others,
with equal emphasis, declare 1t is from
the Greek word "hestia"-health. Be
that as 1t may, the feast or festival was
observed at time long anterior to that
when either Greece gave to the world
its stores Of knowledge or Rome dis
played the capacity for administratio
that made the empire forever famous.
Whether casual or periodic. with ritual
grave or gay, carnal as the orgies Of
Baal and Astarte or spiritual as the wor-
ship of the early church, the feast
was a festival or "holy-day." inasrnuch

ultimately made to prove beyond doubt
or cavil that a close and intimate con-
nection existed in prehistoric times be-
tween those divisions now known as the
"old" and the new" worlds? Who can
say? The suspicion that has in recent
years been taking definite shape and that
has been crystallizing into a dim belief
that the story of the lost Atlantis was
not altogether a myth, would, in such
case, receive fuller warrant; and the
characteristics of the wonderful re-
mains alluded to, which have by some
investigators been identified as Phoeni :
clan, be made to again enforce the
truth of the oneness of the human race,
as well as the triviality of nations rise
and fall, save as 1t may contribute to the
advancement along ethical lines of the
aggregated human family.
"soN OF HEAVEN" CELEBRATES
The calendar Of the early peoples of
America Is bound by historical interest
tc the calendar system of Central and
Eastern Asia, the resemblance between
the two being rather striking. Among
Mongols. Tibetans, Chinese, etc., series
of signs are combined to mark the years,
months and days. and cycle or series of
twelve animals is used, viz, the rat,
bull, tiger, hare. dragon, serpent. horse,
goat, ape, cock, dog and pig, which is
possibly an imitation of the ordinary
Babylonian- Greek zodiac familiar to
modern peoples. The Mongolians not
only count their lunar months by these
signs, but they reckon the successive
days by them; and also by combining
the twelve signs in rotation with the five
male and female elementS-f1re, earth,
iron. water, wood-they obtain a means
OF marking each year in their sixty-year
cycle.
In China everything is done on an i'm
mense scale and is Of extreme antiquity.
and its ingenious calendar and diverse
systems of religion have given rise to
a regular system Of festivals. The feast
of first fruits or harvest is the most i'm
rortant, and the Chinese account for the
strict observance of the festival by say
ing that Noah, the founder Of their ma
ton, established the feast when the first
grapes were gathered from which was
manufactured the wine which caused the
old navigator to make an exhibition of
himself in the presence Of his family.
While this may be an extravagant claim,
there Is no doubt that the festival. Is
celebrated in much the same manner
today as 1t was 5000 to 1000 years ago.
In China agriculture is deemed the most
honorable, as it is the most, ancient, of
all occupations; for although the earliest
writings seem to indicate that the earli-
est race that peopled China was nomadic.

the date Of his supposed entrance into
the moon Cat the beginning Of spring.
The Phrygian festivals were also ar
ranged on the theory that the deity was
asleep during the winter and awakened
in the spring, and the seasonal charac-
ter of the Teutonic Ostern, the Celtic
Reltin and the Scandinavian Yole Is
equally obvious.
Alone of all the ancient nations the
Persians had no festivals, as they had
no temples and no common worship
These "Puritans of polytheism' wor-
SHIPPED the sun only. as the visible mani
festation Of deity and his representative
on earth-fire. They scorned show and
pomp and large religious gatherings,
as being contrary to the spirit of the
teachings of their great interpreter and
master Zoroaster.
A very striking contrast to them was
found upon the discovery of the Ameri-
can continent. When Cortez and his fol-
lowers were received with open arms by
the ancient Mexicans on the supposition
that the old tradition that "the white
spirit would return from the east and
from over the sea, it was found that
while noted for the perfection of their
calendar they also possessed an elabo-
rate system of movable feasts, distrib-
uted over the lunar year. The most i'm
portant were those in honor Of the gods
Tescatlipoca, Hintzilopochtli and Tlaloc,
held in April. June and December. The
Peruvians also observed four great solar
festivals and feast at each new moon.
OF the more important celebrations, the
principal was the Yntip- -Raymi (sun-
feast). which preceded by three days
fast, began with the summer solstice and
lasted for nine days.
The similarity in many particulars OF
the observances of the races upon the
American continent and the races of the
old world ante-dating classic times, fur
rishes matter for absorbing interest ia
the scientific inquirer. Will the en-
graved entablatures Of Easter island,
the carved monuments Of Yucatan. the
marvellous Aztec stone. and last, but
probably not least in importance, the dis
covery in this county of a stone spinning
whorl marked upon its surface with the
distinctive emblem of Christianity be

gormandizing; and in the absence Of CIV
ilization-though such civilization may
only be in embryonic form-any attempt
at keeping festival must necessarily be
f1tful and comparatively futile. AS re-
lgion developed so also did the festival
idea, and both in time assumed distinct
i've character. At first glance this might
not seem to be so, for Sir John Lubbock
in an authoritative work published some
years ago, drew attention to certain
races having absolutely no religion, and
yet, in their crude way. having kept fes-
tival. But 1t has since appeared that the
English scientist spoke without full
knowledge, for in a later edition of his
work he eliminated from the list Of races
OF people destitute of religion a number
of those mentioned in the first edition.
Already, and after the lapse of a very
short space of time, we know without
doubt or qualification that another re-
vision Is necessary, and that some of
the peoples supposed to be degraded and
50 low in the scale of humanity as to be
totally lacking in the religious instinct
have, in fact, a religion. While, perhaps
not scientifically justified. 1t is fairly safe
to assume that no division of the human
family is totally minus the religious
faculty.
LA FIESTA IN EMBRYO
The religiosity Of the savage Is shown
in reverance for the dead, and the cere-
monial observed is extremely meager
and simple: but 1t ever tends to become
more elaborate, and, above all, 1t calls
for repetition, and that at regular inter-
walls. His eyes are bent downwards
and his vision bounded, at most, by the
horizon. But whenever there has been
repetition Of ceremonial. and at stated
intervals. then a calendar has begun to
take shape. Obviously the simplest cal
endar is the lunar-the calendar Of ma
ture.. The hymns of the Rig-yeda in

Somewhere on the Storm

Not Sighted by Vessels Arriv-

Prevailing Gale Reported to
Be One of the Fierc-
est on Record.

CHARLESTON, S. c., Feb. 9.-Admiral
Bunce and the four ships of the North
Atlantic squadron are still somewhere
upon the storm-tossed Atlantic.
Up to late hour the lookout at his
toric Fort Sumpter has not made out
any ships approaching the harbor. and
great uueasiness is felt regarding the
safety of the squadron. The Clyde line
steamer Comanch arrived late in the
afternoon after a tempestuous trip from
New York, having been blown out of
her course and driven. by the storm and
delayed by the force of the gale
Captain Pennington said that he
wishes never to be out in a fercer gale
on the Atlantic. He saw no trace of
the ships of the squadron on his way
down, although if they had been upon
what is known as the Southern drill
ground" he would have passed close to
them. No other incoming vessel has
sighted them.
Thedispatch boat Fern put out to
sea during the morning with special
dispatches and mail from Washington
from Admiral Bunce, but she could not
find the ships and returned.
Commander Richardson Glover, who
has received orders to join the North
Atlantic squadron, reports that he has
seen nothing of the missing ships.
