A CHINESE NEW YEARS.
How the Day Is Celebrated in q Chinese
Quarter of san Francisco.

How the Day Is celebrated IN Chinese
Quarter of san Francisco
Chinatown of San Francisco was
keeping holiday, and all was gayety and
hustle.
The narrow, picturesque streets were
decorated with rightIy-colored Ian
terms, while overhead above the roof
tops the yellow dragon-fags foated
against blue California sky.
1t was a sunny day in February, and
the streets were sWarming with a null
titude of Chinese-men, women and
children-all arrayed in their richest
holiday attire. The children especially,
with their bright faces and black eyes,
and their pretty costumes, formed a
most pleasing and interesting feature of
this Irving oriental picture.
Everybody seemed to be happy and
good-natured; and ever and anon, as
group OF friends met, they stopped
and amid much ceremonious bowling eX-
changed the compliments of the sea-
son; for this festive occasion was
nothing more nor less than the celebra-
ton Of the Chinese New Year.
The idea of celebrating New Years
day in February may strike some of
my readers as odd. But, since this has
been the Chinese custom from time i'm
memorial, and is older by several thou
sand years, than our acceptance of the
1st of January as the proper time, the
Chinese, perhaps, are not far wrong in
supposing themselves to be at least as
much in the right as ourselves. This
question, however, was of no con-
cern to this merry holiday throng.
They were quite satisfied with the ar
rangement; and, with the utmost
belief in their own superiority, they felt
at heart an inborn contempt-common
to all Chinese-for outside barbarans.'
This term embraces all nations not liv-
ing within the sacred boundaries of
"the f1owery kingdom" and includes
the inhabitants of all the world; and
these unfortunate outsiders are broadly
divided into two classes-eastern and

NEW SORT OF FUNERAL.
Burial Service Is Read by q Phono-
graph,

Burial Service Is Read by Phono-
graph.
The latest kind of funeral is one in
which the burial service is read by a
photograph. At Gravesend, near Coney
Island, several funerals have been con-
Quoted by phonograph recently. Cler-
gymen are very few and far between in
that section. The undertaken of the
village saw that something had to be
done to supply the want of a clergy
man, and, being a man of inventive
genius, hit upon a phonograph as be-
ing the best way of solving the prob
lem.
He persuaded a duly ordained min
lister to read the burial service into the
cylinder of a phonogTaph, and also Sc
cured cylinders with appropriate
hymns and prayers. a huge trumpet
serves to intensity the sound and causes
the voice from the phonograph to be
both loud and distinct When the
coffin has been laid beside the grave, the
monograph, which stands where the
minister ordinarily would be, is start
ed, and the ceremony begins.
First of all, portion Of the Scrip
lures is read, then quartette renders
the hymn Nearer, My God to Thee"
after which the Lords Prayer is re-
cited. The phonograph voice then
reads solemniy the burial service. Com
initial of the dead is followed by an
other prayer. Another hymn is sung
and then the phonograph pronounces
the benediction. The effect is very SOL
emn, for the far-away sound of the SON
orous voice seems somehow to intensi-
fly the meaning of the service.
No use, other than a religious one,
is ever permitted with the phonograph.
and its big trumpet has never ground
out popular ballads. The undertaken
takes a really serious view of the in
strument, and when not in use it is
kept alongside the family Bible, with
a decorous crane band depending from
the faring trumpet.
The inhabitants OF Gravesend have
become quite used to the phonograph
and say it is just the thing for them.
Some of the older villagers, who make
a point of attending all funerals in the
vicinity, say that a funeral would not
seem like a real funeral without
"Abe's' machine. Abraham Stillwell,
the originator of the idea, holds that
there is nothing inappropriate in the
idea, and several ministers have as
sured him that they fully approve of
the plan.-N. Y. Journal

The Depreciation Of Silver, the Colorado
Senator Declares, Gives an Advantage
TO Japanese Agriculture aud Japanese
Industries.
Washington, March &c. - Senator
Wolcott, who has interested himself
SO much in international bimetallism,
expressed the opinion today that the
recent action of Japan in attempting
to depreciate silver would hasten in
ternauonal action to restore the equal
ity Of the two metals, and made the
following statement giving his reasons
for this belief:
"rhe monetary situation in Japan
is not only interesting, but most far
reaching and perhaps not generally
understood. The result which Japan
seeks is to make permanent the de-
probation of silver in relation to gold,
and to preserve thereby the advantages
which this depreciation naturally gives
to japanese agriculture and Japanese
Industries, and it is not in any sense
an attempt to equalize values There
was time in the history of the United
States when we might have taken
step identical with that which Japan
now proposes. If, during the years of
our civil war, when our money was
worth but so per cent of the gold dol
lar, we had by law declared that hence
forth our dollar should be of the value
Of so cents only in gold our legislation
would have been parallel with that
which Japan evidently intends. We
chose to follow a different path
"The action Of Japan accords, in
measure, with that of Austria a few
iected in Russia, with this difference:
Austria forced the permanent deprecia-
ton of its money, measured in gold,
to the extent of some 16 per cent;
Russia will establish a reduction of
about 95 per cent in the value Of its
rouble, while Japan proposes to per-
manently depreciate its exchange, rela-
tive to gold, so as TO lower the value
Of the yen to about 48 cents on the
dollar. The action of Japan must not
be construed as an attempt to estab-
lish and maintain a gold standard; it
is simply an attempt to preserve the
economic advantages which she at
present enjoys because of the gold
premium which exists in Japan, and
this at the expense of the great COM
mercial countries of the world which
have heretofore maintained the stabil-
ity of their coinage as well as their
financial integrity
"Of course, at the present price Of
silver, measured by gold, the result Of
| the action of Japan would be to drive
| all it's silver out Of that country. 1t is
| premature, however, to attempt to
forecast the full effect of her action in
this respect. The course of Japan
must, in my opinion, only serve to has
ten some agreement between the lead
ing commercial nations of the world
looking to a settlement of this ques-
tion upon an international basis"
Senator Jones, of Arkansas, chair
man of the Democratic national COM
mittee has recently received two let
ters from England regarding the pros
poets of blmetallism by international
agreement One of them says the gold
standard Is more firmly fixed in Eng
land now than ever before, and the
other says that the times seem to be
very favorable for bimetallism, and
expresses the belief that in case the
United States should make the proper
effort bimctailisn might be brought
/ about.

FREE CURE FOR MEN.
A Michigan Man offers to Send His Dis
oovery Free.
Claims to Be a Benefaotor to weakened
Mankind

There is always more or less suspicion
attached TO anything that is offered free bnt
sometimes q man so overilows with generosity
that he cannot rest until his discovery is
known to the world. in order that his fellow
men may profit by what he has discovered
1t is upon this principal that resident Of
Kalamazoo, Mich, desires 10 send free 10
mankind prescription which win cure them
of any form of nervous debility relieves
them of all the doubt and uncertainty which
such men are peculiarly liable 60 and restores
the organs to natural size and vigor As IL
costs nothing TO try the experiment il would
seem that any man, suffering with the
nervous troubles that usually attack men
who never stopped to realize what might be
the final result, ought TO be deeply interested
in a remedy which will restore them To
health, strength and vigor, without which
they continue to live an existence Of untold
misery. As the remedy in question was the
result Of many years research as to what
combination would be peculiarly effective i'm
restoring to men the strength they need, it
would seem that all men suffering with any
form of nervous weakness ought to write for
such a remedy at once. A request to II. c.
Olds Box l7l2 Kalamazoo, Mich, stating
that you are not sending for the prescription
out Of idle curiosity, but that you wish TO
make use of the medicine by giving it a trial,
will be answered promptly and without
evidence as to where information came from.
The prescription is sent free and although
some may wonder how Mr. Olds can afford to
give away his discovery, there is no doubt
about the offer being genuine. Cut this out
and send to Mr.. Olds so that he may know
who you came to write him. 12-2S7St
