THE ABYSSINIAN CALENDAR.
Names of tho Days and Years Are
Those of Snints-MethOdO Of
Reckoning Time. .'<s"

A fearful and wonderful thing is
the Abyssinian calendar. Nearly every
day is a saints day, and is known by
it's proper name, and not by it's date.
For instance, if you ask an Abyssinian
whether certain thing happened on
the 18th of Hadar (the equivalent of
our November 23), he will not under
stand what you mean; but if you say:
"Was it on Abuna Aragawe (the name
for that day. that you stole that
sheep?" a comprehending smile will
overs pread his handsome and intelli-
gent features.
The year is divided into IL mouths
of 80 days each, and at the end of the
year, to make up the 365 days, are
added five days, called "Quagme."
Each year in succession is called
Matthews, Markos, Lukos, Johannis.
Matthews, Markos and Johannis have
each a "Quagme" Of five days, but
Lukos, or leap year, has "Quagme"
of six days. The Abyssinian year be-
gins on our September II, and, al
though dating as we do from the birtls
of Christ, they are nearly eight years
behind US in time-Septembe II, 1900,
was in their calendar 1st Maskaram,
1893. Their method of reckoning the
hours of the day is also peculiar, to
our notions. They count the day as be-
ginning at sunrise, and not at mid
night, as we do. Thus our seven a. m.
is their IL o'clock day; eight p. m. is
their one o'clock day, and our six p. m.
with US would be two o'clock night
with them, and our four a. M. would be
tn cir ten o'clock niUht

RED DRAGON REINSTATED.
Something Over Which All LOYAL
Welshmen VIII Be Likely to
Feel Elated, ,

There will be rejoicing in Wales
and among loyal Welshmen the
world over now that the Red Dragon
Of Cadwallader is to find his due
place in the heraldic achievement OF
the princes of Wales. We published
the other day the order of the king
in council that there be added to
the achievement of prince of Wales
the badge of the Red Dragon" This
ancient badge is to be borne as a
badge, of course, and not quartered
on the shield of the princeton the
sinister side (the spectators right
that is) of the royal crest as heir ap.
parent, while the ancient badge o.
the ostrich feathers is on the other
side, the crest and the two badges
appearing thus in line over the
shield. The badge is: ION mount
vert dragon PEASANT gules, diffet
enced as in the royal crest with b
label of three points argent" The
duke of Norfolk, the earl marshal
of England, is charged to see that
the necessary directions be given
says the London Graphic.
The Red Dragon of Cadwallader OF
Wales is represented in a painting
in one of the heraldic manuscripts
in the British museum-a manuscript
which contains colored drawi( gs> OF
the royal badges from EdwarN III.
down to King Edward VI, d nd it
was presumably written in the\days
of Edward VI.
The banner of King Henry VII. in
the Vincent MS, No. 1872, in the Col
lege of Arms, shows that the king
quartered the red dragon in a ban
ner with his other badges. 81 nry
also used the dragon as supporter,
and it can be seen with the white
greyhound in the chapel at Wind or,
supporting portcullis unsigned Nth
rose. From this time the Ttlor
monarchs used the dragon as onj of
the supporters of the royal al ms,
Henry VII. descended from OwenITu-
dor, thus proclaimed his Welsh an
cestry; but the dragon droppedEou out
when the Stuart dynasty succeeded,
and has not reappeared until tow,
at last, the king, with his usual Ira
cious sympathy with national astra-
tions, has restored it to the achtve-
ment Of arms of the heir appabnt,
who takes his title from the prhci-
pality. " +
The question of the admission of
the emblem of Wales has eomelup
from time to time. In 1893 the csm-
plant was that Wales was. hot
represented on the coinage, and as
Wales claims to possess shield of
arms as we'll as a badge, it was ten
said that these arms Quarterly or
and gules four lions PEASANT gurd-
ant counterchanged)s ought to | be
CHARTERED with England, scotlnd
and Ireland in the royal BAN Ter:
while another suggestion was hat
the. red dragon should be-; mad a
charge and quartered on the baher.

FAIR COMMISSION At WORK UPON
MATTERS PERTAINING TO
EXHIBIT.
A Working Body. Full Of Vim and En-
ersy, That Will See Wyoming
Properly Presented to the People
Of This Mundane Sphere-Laramie
Members In Attendance.

1t is more and more in evidence each
month that Wyoming is to be present
ed TO the world in a fitting name al
the St. Louis Louisiana Purchase
worlds fair in 1903. The commission
appointed by Governor Richards is at
work. The first Wednesday in each
month finds it assembled at the state
capital planning and discussing meth
DDS, exhibits. space, ways and means.
etc. And they are men who are cap
able of representing Wyoming efficient
ly in any capacity.
At the meeting held in Cheyenne yes
terday President Slack was in the
chair and Messrs. Homer. Nelson and
Beeler of the commission were present.
Prof. Roberts, in charge of the educa-
tional exhibit, was also in attendance.
Several gentlemen, including Judge
Carey, State Superintendent lyman,
Prof. Churchill and Mr.. Ward of Den
yer We're present to aid the commission
with their advice.
The question of securing space was
discussed at some length and it was
decided to ash floor space as follows:
For mineral exhimit, 1OOx1OO; for agri-
culture, 5Ox50; for fish n game, COX
80; for education, 2Ox3O.
The plan for the educational exhibit
was discussed in some detail. One fea-
ture suggested by Judge Carey was a
number of pictures of the school
houses of the state, showing how the
school had progressed from the print
tive frontier country school to the
grand university. Mr.. Ward of Den
yer related an incident that had come
under his observation. Near Hartville
several years ago he had seen a teach
er conducting a school OF several chill
dren in a hencoop. This called to
Judge Carey's mind a school where
there Was n pupil for the teacher to
teach Zone chicken in the coop.)
Prof. Roberts stated to the commits
sion that he had been requested to pre-
scuI LILO uldttcT VI CiiulSh cAIilDll, dilu
it was decided to request the ministers
of the state to express their views up
on the matter.
President Slack and Mr.. Homer will
visit st. Louis this month and while
there will take up the matter of floor
space. They will also discuss exposi-
ton matters generally with the men
in charge of the fair.
In the near future Secretary Beeler
will be calling upon the people of the
state for their earnest and energetic
cooperation in the matter Of getting
together a c%reditable mineral exhibit.
The secretary is energetic and capable
and the people can rest assured that
any confidence they may place in him
will not be betrayed.
