world. unites in the celebration Of a
national holiday which means to the
Jewish race what the New England
THANKSGIVING has become. There is
one distinction. however. The New
England Thanksgiving of the Puritans
has been perverted into sort IF pc
riod for family reunions: the feast Of
tahernaces is a period of thanks and
merrymakinE. during which the homes
Of orthodox Hebrews are thrown open
to their friends and rich and poor
| alike are welcome to the entertain

Just how much damage has been
done by the recent drought would be
hard to say Nothing has been known
like it since 1872, and the farmers have
been great loosers thereby. There is
one strange thing. however. 1t is that
the cultivated crops have not suffered
as much as would be expected. 1t was
thought at one time that the damage
done would be almost irreparable.
While they have lost. it is not in pro-
portion to the extent of the drought.
The rainy season of the present time

lsIamism in China.

The MQhammedan press in India is de-
voting much attention to the troubles in
China, whereas the Hindu press and pre-
sumably the Hindu people show very lit
tie interest in the matter. FROM Pans-
lam sources in Stambcul, the Russian vi
edomosti estimates that there afe in Chi
ma $4,000, 900 Mohammcdans, although the
Panislam authorities themselves put the
figure at between S0000,000 and 100 600 900
The Viedomosti comments substantially
as follows:
In China, Mohammedanism has not won
its way, as elsewhere, by the sword but
peacefully. Four hundred years before
GeEghis Khan, to whom is generally at
tributed the introduction of Islamism into
China. there were many Mohammedans
in that country.
In the eighth century. the rulers of Chi
ma We're on the best of terms with the
princes of Mohammedan states. Follow
ers of the prophet were at liberty TO set
tie and travel in China, and all through
the Middle Ages Arabian travellers and
merchants were Hospitality received in the
| Celestial Empire. At time when reig-
/ ious liberation was unknown quantity
| in Europe, Mohammedans and Buddhists
| lived peaceably in China. From the
eighth to the fourteenth century they
We're, it is true. deprived of their political
rights; but these We're finally restored tC
them, and in the interim they suffered nc
annoyance.
! AS an example of the strength of Islam
/ in China the TAPPING revolt NAV be cited
Ii was nothing more or less than an at
| tempt to make China a Mohammedar
state. The original mover in the rebel.
lion was the Mohammedan, Imam Mat.
schesana, a fanatic who had been Il
Me cca and Constantinop1e.
The same journal is of the opinion tina
a rebellion similar to the TAPPING revolt
might at any time burst out in China an6
Iaggravate the already troubled condition
of that country.
