The Hebrews Observed 1T Ffrst-His-
tory of the American Day.

OF course the idea of a Thanksgiving
Day. is not original with the Pilgrim
Fathers. 1t is as old as mankind. The
Hebrews observed it. first, as the festi-
val Of first fruits. and then as the feast
Of tabernacles. The Greeks had it,
and so did the Romans. In later times
it was a day set apart in the countries
of Europe. Long before the Pilgrim
Fathers left Holland it was a day well
known both in Holland and in Eng
land. lii "Hudigras' it is spoken of
as a day quite we'll understood.
For HudibTas who thought he'd won
The field as certain as a gun.
And having routed the whole troop,
With victory cock a hOop:
Thinking he'd done enough to purchase
Thanksgiving Day among the churches.
But, however ancient the origin of
Ii day, our particular observance
dates from the Pilgrim Fathers. AS a
matter of history, they only appointed
a Thanksgiving Day when they had
something to be thankful for, and in
their bad or unfruitful years did no.
observe the day, and it did not become
an annual custom in New England I'M
til about the year 1859. 1t took it
years and years longer to extend to
the other states, though there are in
stances of such a day being set apart
in New York prior to the Revolution.
During the Revolutionary war the
Continental congress appointed a day
of thanksgiving every year, until the
war ended, the last being in 1854, and
was a day of great rejoicing for the
peace. In 1889 President Washington,
at the suggestion of congress-, appoint
ed Nov. 2S as Il day of national thanks
giving for the successful Inauguration
of the new government. This was the
first of the presidential ThanksgivingS.
Again, in 1895, Washington issued n
second THANKSGIVING proclamation. on
account of the suppression of the wills
ky insurrection. The next presidential
recommendation of Thanksgiving was
by President Madison, in April, 1915,
on account of peace with England.
After this, until Lincoln's time, there
were no presidential calls for the OBJ
Servance of the day. Since 1863 the
last Thursday in November has been
appointed as the day of national
Thanksgiving. Before 1863 the gov
crnors of many of the states appointed
the day, though it vas many years be-
fore the custom extended beyond New
England and the Middle States. AS
late as 1858 only eight of the governors
of the Southern States issued Thanks
giving proclamations.

THE ARTlC WHALERS.
Government Reindeer to be Used for
Their SuccOr.

Their SuccOr.
WASHINGTON, Nov. l6.-Secretary
Gage has requested the secretary of the
interior to instruct the Alaskan OIL
cials to gather about 600 head of REIN
deer from the government herds for
the use of the expedition for the relief
of the ice-bound whalersi in the Arctic.
1t is expected that the Bear, which
is now at Seattle, will be ready
to sail in about ten days,
and within 20 days there
after it is expected hat she will have
reached some point on Norton's sound,
where a large party will be engaged
for the trip overland to Point Barrow.
The herd of reindeer, which will be
killed for food if needed, will be driven
overland, and it Is the confident eX-
p~ectatiOn of Capt. Shoemaker, chief
of the revenu cutter service, and Capt.
Harper, who is in command of the
Behring sea patrol fleet, Thai the herd
will reach Point Barrow and the i'm
prisoned whalers before the middle of
February. The river through which
the herd will be driven is said to
abound with moss, upon which the
herd will feed. and both agree that the
scheme for the relief of the whalers IS
perfectly feasible, and will be attend
ed with but little danger. Capt.
futile, who will command the
Bear, is regarded as one of the most
capable and trustworthy men in the
service, and no apprehension is felt re-
garding the outcome of the enterprise.
The eight vessels now ice-bound have
q combined complement of 265 men.

Freeman, 40; the Fearless. 50; the Jean

AN EVENTFUL Y
The Steamship BelgenIand Picks up Many
Ocean Wallis.

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 1.-THE closing
portion of the voyage of the steam
ship B~elgenland, which arrived yester-
day from Liverpool, was eventfuI and
interesting to those on board. On
Sunday morning the waterlogged and
s~ailless schooner Wylie l.. Maxwell
vas sighted and she was taken in tow
to the great relief of her crew of ten
men, the vessel having become help
less. On Monday morning Il small
boat was sighted drifting heIpiessly
with five men aboard. When the men
were taken on board the steamship It
was found that they were the crew of
the abandoned schooner Theo. Dean.
Capt. James +. liodgson of the Dean
had been washed from the small BOAT
and lost. Capt. lIodgson resided at
Somerville, Mass, and leaves L widow,
two daughters and Il son.
The Theodore Dean left South Amo-
boy Oh Friday last for Norfolk with Il
cargo of coal. When off Absecon light
she lost her main sail, and on Saturday
ut Don when ID miles off Barnegat,
she sprung Il leak, Il plank having been
torn from her side.
The vessel filled rapidly. and with
four feet of water in her hold the cap
tain at l:jO p. IN. ordered the small boat
lowered, and the crew, six men all
told, left the ship. An hour later
the vessel vas seen to sink. Theirs
was a heavy and tremendous gale, and
the small boat was kept to rights with
great difficulty. At $50 O'Clock the
boat IA raised almost on end, and
Capt. Hodgson was swept overheard.
The oars We're also lost, and those in
the boat were left helplers. The boat
drifted from that time until nine
o'clock Monday morning, when it was
sighted by the B~elgenland and the
men rescued from their perilous situa,
lion.

The People of Germany Greatly Alarme

The People of Germany Greatly Alarmed
Trade with the Union Dropping on
Talk of Retaliation, ReprisaI- and Hot
Competition in Other MISUNDERSTANDING
Losses on Account OF the Tariff Law.
WASHINGTON. Nov. 17.-Consul Nom
Afghan, at Chemintz, in a report to the
state department Jon Germany's ex-
ports to the United States says:
Germany is alarmed. Exports to the
United States are dropping off.
Nothing SO alarming has appeared in
20years. America was always her best
customer i'll many lines of manufac-
lures. In the September quarter of
1896, Il consular districts sent to the
United States goods amounting to S14.-
4S!,4lI. In the same quarter in 1897
tine same districts sent 81, 1S9, liz.
The average loss all over the empire
IS nearly 30 per cent. In many cases
this Indicates much more than mere
money losses to our 1t indi-
Gates Il ~diminution in exports from this
empire due TO the Dingley bill. The
public is told to put little confidence
IN newspaper reports even if accurate.
Each issue urges intelligent effort to
retain the United States market"
Consul Monaghan quotes from a pa
per which Says that some of the fall
ing off is due to the rush of goods to
get ahead of the Dingley law, but adds
II a Germany must suffer sever losses
on account of the tariff bill.
Some papers suggest raising import
duties to r~etaliate, especially in the
matter of sugar.
One paper says: I'VE can break off
now because OF Americas incons;der-
ate, almost hostile action and attitude.
The most favored nation clause has been
violated. The universal opinion favors
retaliation. We use but we do not
need American meats, cotton, corr and
petroleum. We must fight her inch
by inch over every line of goods
that go out into markets
to meet ours. The government
must be given full power to put re-
prisals in operation. When the reich
and landing get together this fall ways
and means must DE found for forcing
the United States from its present po
sition. We must wait and see how
LlECh udLldSc Nr DlnSley ) OIL mas
done or will do. Mr.. Mchinley's bill
was as bal in its way as Dingley's. Il
did little real damage"
The paper next counsels against
hasty action, and adds: The con
seriousness that we can count upon
weapons with which to make war ag-
gressiTe or defensive, is enough now.
Corn, cotton and petroleum they must
sell. 1t is not SO certain that we must
buy from them. Russia, India and
Egypt are as near to rs. They have
cotton and petroleum. But we will
wait. Not tirnid, because the only
way to have effect on Americans is by
a display of sharp teeth"
Consul Monaghan says the above is
a fair illustration of newspaper feel
ing in Germany regarding the loss of
trade. He also says that every effort
is being made to make up for the loss
of markets in the United States by in
creasing trade in every other part OF
the world.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 1.-THE govern
ment examiners of tobacco at several
of the more important ports of entry
in the United States, by direction of
the secretay of the treasury, met in
conference in New York recently, with
the view to the adoption of a uniform
practice in the classification of i'm
ported tobacco. The report of the
conference, which has reached the
treasury department, makes three rec
concentrations, rs follows:
First, thai % per cent. of all marks
of every invoice of imported tobacco
should be examined and that the rule
for the present be limited to tobacco
imported from the West Indies, Mexico
and South America. Second, that the
per centage of wrappers found in filler
bales be reached by the count of leaves;
third, that the districts from which to-
hacco is imported be marked on the in
voice wherever practicable. These
recommendations will be adopted by
the treasury department.

The London Papers Discuss the Canadian

LONDON, Nov. 16.-The afternoon
newspapers devote editorial articles to
the visit of Sir Wilfrid Laurier, pre-
mier CT Canada, to Washington.
They are generally in the same tenor
as those of the Pail Mali Gazette,
namely, that the expectation hat the
visit will make the relations between
the United States and Canada closer"
The Globe declares: The statesmen
at Washington have played their cards
badly, and they know it. Canada has
learned the lesson of patriotic indie
pendence anG self-reliance, and the
magnificent discoveries of gold which
promise her in the near future an enor-
nous increase of population have con-
firmed her in the just confidence that
with the mother country at her back
she needs no American assistance in
the work of carving out for herself an
honorable and prosperous career"

Durrant was in court when the motion
was made and the court, after
q hurried consultation of the bench,
announced through Chief Justice Full
Ter hat the mandate should issue
forthwith. Mr.. Anderson thinks this
will settle the matter and hasten Dur
rants execution. He said he would
have made the motion sooner but for
the necessity of giving notice to Dur
