TWENTIETH CENTURY.
to This Authority 1t Com
menceS on the First Day OF
January, 1901.

When you see two men seated in a
club or in hotel cafe shaking their
fists in each others faces and cavorting
in the mazes of hot argument, don't be
TOO sure that they are discussing poll
tics or religion, for the chances are that
they are only trying to decide when the
twentieth century begins.
The question and the problem of nam
ing the college classes which will be
graduated in 1900 have now been added
to the "woes that shake mankind" AS
to when the twentieth century begins,
little calm reflection will show that it
begins on January |, 1901.
The Christian era began on January
1, the fourth year of the one hundred
and ninety-fouTth Olympiad. the seven
hundred and fifty-third from the f0un-
dation of Rome and the four hundred
and seventy-fourth of the Julian period.
Now, 100 years from that primal 1st
of January would not be rounded out
until January of the year 1O1.
In other words, as the second century
did not begin until January l, 1O1, so
the twentieth century will not begin
until January l, 1901. The Christian
era did not begin with the year 0, but
with the year l, on the 1st day of Jan
uary in the one hundred and ninety
fourth Olympiad.
The parties of the second part, those
who argue with many quirks and turns
Of reasoning, say that ii is the TWEEN
tieth century as soon as they date their
letters 1900; that 1900 is the starting
nnint n = Lot
thing that takes place after the 1st Of
January. 1860, is in the twentieth CEN
fury. Eut by so doing they do not look
beneath the surface of things and elm
mate that very important factor in
chronology, the year,.
You cannot be really ard truly Gin
de steele" until just before the horns
wake the echoes of the night in lower
broadway and the chimes OF Trinity,
ringing out over the noisy crowd and
silent graves, proclaim that it is Janu-
airy 1, 1901.
Those changes in chronology which
have taken place in the Christian era
have nothing to do with the case. The
world is row committed to the Gre
gorian calendar ard the beginning Of
the year is irrcvocably fixed for lie 1st
of January. Theoretically the era is
supposed TO date from the birth OF
Christ, though, owing to some unce =.
tainty as TO the exact date Of III: Dirt H.
as some say, or more probably for the
purpose of satisfactorily dividing the
years, as others claim, the date has
been arbitrarily fixed for January 1.
1t will be noticed that, although hi
was pope Of Rome who instituted the
! present calendar, there is a difference
between the civil and ccclesiastica
| year, and that Christmas comes week
before New Years day. But these
things do not affect the fact that the
| twentieth century, that unknown cycle
in which The majority Of people now
living will be called upon to play {
| part, begins on January |. 1901.
The world is too much filled with thu
wonder and the g!Cry CT the nineteenth
century for rlCn to lie in Il hurry TO he
GIN Il new one. Wait year, you gentle
men OF the january 1, 1900 persuasion
the twentieth century will be upon you
soon enough.--N. Y. Press.

Ei,,.r Uiurs Arc Lost.

The exposition guards are constantly re
ceiving complaints from women who nave
lost their finger rings. The women enter
the lavatories and remove their rings while
they lave their hands. After drying their
hands they walk out, leaving their rings
on the window sill, The table or wherever
they were placed. After a short absence
they return to find that their finger orna-
ments have disappeared. Then the nearest
guard is entertained with a tale of woe
and asked to recover the jewelry. NO
method has yet been discovered whereby
these articles are restored to their owners.
AS a rule articles which are lost may
be recovered by applying at the headquar-
tiers OF the guard in the police building near
the Service building, as all articles found
lying about by the guards are taken at once
to headquarters, but finger rings and other
jewelry usually disappears as soon as the
owners back is turned.
