ECHOES OF THE ANTE ROOM

The Masonic Veterans Association of Ne
braska will meet in Omaha Monday, Janu-
Rry 26, in annual session for the purpose
OF electing officers Of the year and rams
acting other business. The association is
composed Of Masons who have been mem
bers OF the order for twenty-one years or
more and has representatives in almost
every county o: the state. The meeting
will be- held in Free Mason's hall, and
at noon there will be spread a luncheon
in the banquet hall.
This may be the last o. the meetings
TO be held at the hall, as there is a feeling
on the part Of a number of the members
that the meetings should be more OF a
social nature. This idea is carried out in
a number OF other jurisdictions and the
annual meetings are held at the home Of
the retiring president, with the wives Of
the members present. and the day is given
over to social pleasures, as the a~ssocia-
tions have little other object than per-
petuating the ties Of friendship and &C.
quaintance between the veterans. The
latest reunion Of veterans to be held was
that OF the Detroit association, January Z.
Invitation to attend the meeting was sent
TO Gustave Anderson, an honorary member
OF the Detroit association. 1t was held at

CHINESE CHIEF BORNE TO
THE GRAVE in STATE

Never has Chinatown seen q more
imposing funeral procession than that
which followed to the grave Chew Qui
Yet. president Of the Kong Chow asy-
lum, the oldest and richest of the Six
Companies, says the San Francisco
Chronicle. Chew Qui Yet had been
noted Canton judge, and was called to
San Francisco many months ago to
serve two years term as head of
the powerful Kong Chow asylum. Be-
side the body stood numbers of bril-
liantly clad dolls in the dress of man.
darins and court ladies, which were
to be burned at the grave of the great
man, and thus accompany his spirit
into the other world that he might be
attended by such servants and friends
as beftted his station. The room was
filed with mourners in blue and white
robes mingling with the many visitors.
Outside in a court there was glori-
Gus feast-whole roasted pigs that
might tempt the appetite of the most
spiritual ghost and cakes and other
material delicacies to be placed upon
the grave.
When the funeral procession started
from the house 1t was preceded by a
regulation American band, playing a

other that compares with it, although
we have not been able to confirm the
interesting information we find in the
guide books that seven different states
are visible to the naked eye. We can
see Tennessee, of course, which Is one,
and Alabama, Mississippi and Georgia,
which are four. The man who wrote
the guide book was able to identify
three more states, but he does not
name them. 1t is possible, however,
that his vision was so superior to that

the grand panorama outspread before
one at this elevation"
The summit of Lookout Mountain Is
1900 feet above the level of the sea,
and the hotel is LOO feet above the
city of Chattanooga. The situation is
similar to that of the famous Sparrow
Hills, overlooking Moscow, which ex-
perienced travellers declare commands
the grandest spectacle in all the world,

is only about 700 feet above the city,
while that of Lookout Mountain Is

SELF. CONFIDENCE is OFT
THE SECRET OF SUCCESS

Self-confidence is the explanation of
all successful careers. 1t is virtue
that should be carefully cultivated in
the young. for lack of self-trust may
amount to complete self-effacement in
the competitions of life. There was
something imposing in the excessive
self-reiance of Napoleon. who de-
clared If there was no one to make
cannon and gunpowder he could make
them. 1T is | alone who have ar.
ranged the finances, you know" This
was colossal egotism. 1t is true, but It
was the motive power that made Ma.
poleon one of the most magnificent
military successes in history. II Is
better to possess the quality of self
confidence in excess than not to pos
sess It at all. Montague. among the
shrewdest of practical philosophers,
says, ITO speak less of himself than
he possesseth is folly and not mod
esty." Offense lies not in relying upon
ones self, but in speaking boastfully
of ones ability and exploits. A writer
observes that same offensive cyclists
are of indispensable importance to the
carrying on of American life, whom
we could Ill spare; any one of them
would be national loss. But il spells
conversation. They are ever thrust
ing their pampered self between you
and them. Nature utilizes misers fan
atics, cyclists, to- accomplish her ends
but we must not think better of the
foible for that"
Self-confidence is, therefore, to be
carefully distinguished from self
praise, which, even in the greatest OF
men, is intolerable. A man should
believe In himself, but he should moi

We have inally had the backbone of
the long continued drouth broken by the
coming of nice rains. The drouth has
lasted for nearly six weeks, only two or
three little sprinkles of less than enough
to lay the dust for day. Under all
these discouraging circumstances our
tobacco growers have persisted in their
efforts TO plant their corn and set out
their tobacco, and much of it is now
growing finely and showing a healthy
outlook for good crop. In some sec
tions of New England very heavy rains
have fallen, accompanied with hail. The
tobacco districts escaped this storm, but
rain in abundance has come, and all veg
citation appears to join with mankind in
songs of thankfulness.
The prospect for fine crop of tobac-
CO, it seems, was never better than now.
1t is hoped that our plucky growers will
be rewarded by housing one of the best
crops that ever grew. The stand in the
fields is good, and the time for stocking
over never was better. The work of
hoeing is hindered by continued rain. In
the meantime the grass is growing Won
derfully, SO we must not complain. At
Hatfield | hear thai some pieces of to-
bacco are so we'll started that topping
will be commenced in two or three
weeks, probably as soon as the first of
