The Chinese New Year begins next
Wednesday and as usual the Celestial resi-
dents of Washington are preparing to cele-
brate the event according to their custom.
The day is the most important in their cal
eudar ana in the past has been celebrated
by them in manner suggesting Fourth Of
July, Thanksgiving, and New Year Day all
in one.
This year the Cinnamon have been un-
usually active in their preparations for the
event.
This is caused. ii is said by the prosperi-
ty which has visited them during the past
year and for which they are preparing to
give thanks. The celebrations do not in
clude any religious ceremony. but as a Chi
naman said to a Times reported they feel
thankful and that is all there is to it. The
celebration will continue for three or four
days during which time there will be Wis
iting and feasting and the firing OF fire
crackers.
The Cinnamon are very fond Of chicken
and this they say will be their principal
diet during the coming festivities. Signs

laundrymen. The more prosperous among
them have hung gayly colored pieces Of pa
per in their windows. These bear inscrip-
tions in their characters which mean Wei
come The majority OF the Cinnamon of
the city will not work on Wednesday and
very little. il is said. will be done during
the several days following.
\ custom which they follow religiously
on the first day Of their new year is In
the payment OF debts. Chnaman lays
his success or failure to his good OF bad
luck as the case may be- and nothing they
say will bring disaster upon them quicker
than failure to cancel their obligations on
the first day of the new year
There Will be receptions at the Chinese
legation New Year Day and the two days
Glowing at which only Cinnamon viii be
the guests. According to their calendar
the Chinese DO not know exactly what year
they are IN. Each epoch begins with the
ascension of the Emperor. and next We'd

OF the reign Uf KwanE SU or the begin
ming Of the reign OF Po Chan II the re-
ports are true that kwang Su is dead.
then the New Year begins at his death
and tie ascension OF his successor 10 The
throne.
In this event the celebrations on We'd
nesday would be several days late. The
Cinnamon OF the city say. however that
they care nothing about this and are not
disposed 10 allow a matter Of that kind TO
interfere with their festivities

Time and again friendly critics Of naval
affairs. when mildly yenturing to question
the bodily presence Of Sampson at the
Santiago battle have been crushed with
the. until now. unanswerable argument
that he was the inventor Of the super
imposed turret. and, consequently could
not have been behind the horizon on that
or any other occasion when glory, loot,
or mules were in sight or within hope.
The turret to which we refer is the new
device which has made the Kearssrge
already famous As a new and successful
type Of battleship. The recent sea tests
to which the great fighting machine has
been subjected seem to be accepted by
naval experts as conclusive that the Kesr-
sarge is the most powerful armored vessel
on any ocean today and that this supe-
riority is due to The superimposed turret.
But il is announced that the officer TO
whom the profession and the country owe
this important step in naval progress. is
not Sampson. whose name has been ''su-
peTimposed, but Lieut.. Joseph Strauss,

But he is certainly entitled TO some OF the
praise, and profit. too. If there be any,
for he was actually present and saw the
drawings. He even brought them TO the
attention of the then Secretary of the
Navy Mr.. Herbert.
