CHINESE NEW YEAR.


Its Advent Welcomed by the Hfsstng
of Firecrackers.
The Chinese New Year was ushered in
this morning a few minutes after mid
night by Chin Gum Shing. better known
as E. Lung. proprietor of a laundry and
Chinese tea store on North Delaware
street The kissing of Chinese firecrackers,
imported from China for the purpose. was
an event for the Chinese laundrymen. E.
Lung is the first of the local Chinese to
begin the New Year celebration. At Moy
KEGS restaurant on East Washington
street a large red sign with black letters
confronts the visitor, telling him that
preparation is being made for the New
Year and that business is suspended for a
short time. Thursday. the sign reads, the
place will be open for the reception of
guests.
For several days past each of the fifty
five Cinnamon in this city have been pre-
pairing for the event. 1t is known among
the Chinese as the year %, that being the
age of the present Emperor of China,
Kuang Hsu. The Chinese years are
recorded only by the age of their Emperors.
Little red envelopes and cards inscribed
with the heroglyphicS of the Chinese lam
guage, have been sent out and many have
been received. L. Lung, grand master of
the Chinese Masonic lodge of the United
States. was radantly happy last night, as
opening of the celebration. He displayed
a large number of the red cards telling his
visitor that he had received them from
various parts of the country.
When the first packages of firecrackers
were burned last night and their popping
sent yellow light scampering over the side
walk, volume of happy New Year" in
the Chinese language could be heard This
was followed by invocations. 1t Is the
supposition among the Chinese that fire.
crackers, when burned, keep away evil
spirits. T.. Lung has purchased a plenti-
full supply as he had more than twenty
boxes of firecrackers in his store which will
be used during the ten days celebration.
On large table in the front part of the
store he has arranged a supply of choice
eatables of which each guest who comes
to the house during the celebration must
partake.
At Moy KEGS place the celebration will
be on more elaborate scale Moy Kee
with the assistance of his Chinese wife and
corps of Chinese cooks, has brought out
long bolts of red silk, red flags and gor-
geous lanterns which are used In decorat-
ing the front rooms. Each Chinaman is
adorned with a piece of red ribbon which
looks like a vaccination badge. Moy Kee
will open his place tomorrow night and
the celebration will continue Until one week
from Saturday night. Next Saturday night
a banquet will be spread at Moy KEGS
place at which one hundred invited guests
will be entertained. Both Chinese and
American dishes will be served.

MAYOR BOOKwALTER THINKS CITY
SHOULD NOT SHARE.
Cost to City-Cfty Engineer Nell
SON Home.

The bill OF Representative Bamberger
authorizing the Board Of Public Works to
declare surface tracks of steam roads a
nuisance and TO require their elevation was
a subject OF discussion in city administra-
ton circles yesterday. The discussion was
hostile to two phases Of the bill. The first
phase is that which gives the board the
right to proceed TO make elevation I'm
provements in the manner OF streets and
sewer improvements. and assess the cost
against the district benefited The city
officials do not see how this district could
be anything but the entire city. and this
would be, in a genera. way, a special tax.
The division of cost, so per cent. to be
charged to the railroads and 20 per cent. to
the district benefited. was also opposed.
because the district benefited would be the
entire city. If the bill contemplated the
payment of one-fifth of the cost from the
general funds Ii would still meet with off,
cial hostility, because of the city's inabil-
ity, financially, TO bear that burden. The
city officials are not of the opinion that
the city should bear any portion OF the.
cost.
Mayor Bookwalter said yesterday that
the bill had not received careful consid-
Grafton by him, but that he was opposed
to the city being charged with any part OF
the cost. Under the law as proposed"
he said, track elevation would be as IDEAL
istic dream the building OF stone
bridges over White river out of the city
treasury. The simple fact is the city is
not able to do this. To assess one-fifth
of the cost against the property benefited
would mean the entire city as the benefited
district, and do not believe such a charge
should be made"
Should the railroads bear all the ex-
pense?"
Undoubtedly they should The only
thing, TO my mind that the city should
be charged with is the liability for dam
ages consequent to the elevation of tracks,
and do not believe the courts would hold
us for any damages. They did not do so
in Illinois, where the is analogous.
holding that public necessity required the
elevation Of tracks"
Bamberger bill careful thought.
City Engineer Nelson returned from Chi
cago yesterday. He spent two days exam
lining the elevated systems in Chicago in
company with engineers. He said his visit
had been profitable to him from engi-
neering standpoint, and that he would de-
vote his time to the development of sugges-
lions which he will make to the grade
crossing commission. He paid special at
tention in Chicago to the joint elevation
work, that is, that where railroads Joined
in the work. Much elevation in Indianap-
oils will be Of that character. Mr.. Nelson
had a conference with John O'Neill. the
commissioner of track elevation.

HOME DRESSMAKING HINTS.

Tucks and shirring are among the con-
spicuous features of the season and are
specially charming on the frocks designed
for little girls. This very pretty dress
combines the two and is dainty and at
tractive as could be desired. The original
is of null with the yoke of Valenciennes
lace and is made with a square neck and
elbow sleeves, but the yoke can be made
high and snug under portions added to the
sleeves whenever desired, and many ma
terials might be suggested. Cashmere,
wolfe, eolienne and all similar soft woods
charming. simple silks pretty,
dainty washable fabrics are always correct
and mousseline, silk null and the like make
ideal party gowns, The stirring about the
round neck and at the upper edges of the
sleeve is specially noteworthy. as it gives
the broad effect, that always is becoming

1 notice in the list of members and en-
ployes of the Legislature who were soldiers
in the civil war, issued in the Journal of
the oath, is the name of Captain D. N.
Olive, minute clerk of the House. Captain
Olive has served in the same capacity
during many sessions, and have no doubt
he is selected each time because of his ex-
perience and ability to fill the position more
than to any pull he may have. l had
something to do with bringing OUT Cap
tain Olive. In 1863 L was assistant clerk
of the House and appointed Captain Olive
chief journal clerk, and he filled the place
to the satisfaction of all. R. o. BURNER of
Richmond, was the minute clerk and Cap
tain Olive frequently spelled" him and
soon learned to keep the minutes. In 1873

and helped to put Captain Olive at the
minute clerks desk, and am glad TO say
that many of the succeeding legislatures
have continued him in that position. He is
a most efficient officer.

make an appropriation for the improve
ment of the Ohio river for navigation pur-
