All Fools Day.

The custom of playing pranks on
April fools day probably had It's origin
in France, the first nation to begir the
new year Jan. | instead of March 25.
Before the change April was the day
when the merrymaking of the New
Years celebration eliminated in the
paying of gifts and visits In return for
those already bestowed. When the re-
formed calendar in 1864 made the lst
of January the beginning of the new
year. April l was the time for pre-
tended gifts and visits Of mock cere.
mony TO make fools Of those who had
forgotten the change in dates.
The Romans had n holiday similar ib
character 10 this, although not coming
at the same time Of year, the satur-

diversion the sending of people on

Pest, said that although the meeting
Of the Austrian and German Emperors

him on previous occasions that the
conflict in South Africa would have no
dangerous effect on the relations of the
great powers, and added the hope that
no serious surprises would occur in the
future. Count Goluchowslli said innt
