ORIENTAL LANTERNS.
How They Are Made and Uses t'
 Which They Arc Put.

Which They Arc Put.
 The lantern of the east is as old as civilization. It's primary object is to protect the flame from sudden drafts. Beyond this is the concentration of light for the convenience of reader and, last and least, the regard for beau ty. The oldest form is 0 perforated cylinder or rectangular box. Of this type there are numberless varieties, old and new. The ancient ones which have been preserved are of iron, copper and brass, nearly all simple in construction and finish, but a few richly decorated. Occasionally one runs across lanterns made of silver or ivory. These come from palaces or temples and in most instances are richly carved. Not in frequently the perforatione are fitted with pieces of colored glass. rock crys. tai, amethyst and garnet.
 In China and Japan the travellers or street lantern is feature. This is a sphere or ellipsoid ranging from six inches to two and even three feet in diameter, mads of oiled paper, cloth or silk. In Cathay this lantern is used to show the rank of Its owner by the col bring or inscriptions on its exterior. The humble citizen uses a small affair in white or red, the official of low rank a sphere foot in diameter hanging in front of his sedan chair, while the high mandarin employs huge lantern, re- splendent with his titles in colors, car ried by an ablebodied cooly who walks a yard in advance.
 It Is in house lanterns that the great est variety is found. Of these the gen eral type is a four. five, six, seven, eight or ten sided box, whose length is usually twice Its width. Each side is pane of glass, plain. ground, frosted or decorated. From the angles hang pendants of many sorts. The frame work is usually of teak, but ebony, rosewood, mahogany and other woods are employed. Often the sides of the lanterns are alternately wood and glass, the latter being covered with ground deSlgnS ana the rormer r1cnly carved in relief or inset with ivory, mother-of-pearl or silver.
 Upon the pendants the artificers put their hardest work. Some are made of colored beads, strung and massed with fantastic shapes and knots. Others are strings of little bells, which ring with every passing breeze. Lines of glittering tinted glass balls betray the origin of a favorite mode of decorating Christmas trees. Quaint objects in gaudy enamel or colored porcelain, con- nected by threads, chains or wires, con- stitute fourth and very pleasing group. Floral festoons made of arti- fcial flowers are popular, especially with the fair sex.-New York Post.

CRUCIAL TEST OF LEVEES.

Memphis, Tenn, March 17.-The
crucial test of the great Ievees along
the Mississippi is at hand and if they
withstand the pressure Of the immense
volume of water now rushing south

of the government engineers will be
fully verified. The river gauge Monday

water ever known here, and the wealth

high watermark in the great flood Of
1897 was 1878.
In North Memphis the situation is
assuming serious phase. Hundreds
Of people are abandoning their homes

ice in this part of the city has been
practically abandoned and sliffs are
being brought into requisition.

Official Paper Of

$l.OO PER YEAR.
THE STATE SANATORIUM.

The project for state sanatorlum
for the treatment of tuberculosis to
be erected in northern Minnesota
has been sleeping but it is far from
being dead, and despite the heavy
demands that are being made. upon
the state treasury this winter, it is
expected that the bill for the sanato-
rum will pass, and that work will
be begun this summer.
The project is not new one. All
the general features OF it have been
under consideration for several
years and the necessity for such an
institution has been pretty conclu-
sively demonstrated.
The report OF the commission ap-
pointed by the legislature to lnyes-
tigate theit project makes it very
plain that the sanatorium is a neces-
sitv. Similar institutions in othe-'
states have accomplished great re-
suits and the climate of northern
Minnesota is thought to be partic-
ularly suited to the favorable treat
ment of tuberculosis, wherefore 1t is
expected that the establishment OF
the sanatorium will within a few
wears teach the people ,of the state
to so live that consumption shall be-
come as rare as it is now common.
Under the terms Of the bill all pa
tients deceived in the sanatorlum
must pay their own expenses II abe
4o do so. OtherWire the cost Will tasl
anon the counties from which they
come The state will bear the cost
Of administration only.-Crookston
Times.
DR.. G., S. Wattam, of this city, IS
member af the commission appointed
bvIthe governor to look into the fea-.
sibility of establishing sanatorlum
and he has taken special interest
in this matter. 1t certainly IS
% coiect worthy Of the serious cen
sideration of our lawmakers, now as
sembled in St. Paul. On no grounds,
.exceDt financial, can there be any
opposition to establishing an lnsti-
tuition of this kind. A rich state
like Minnesota. where more than
thousand deaths from consumption
occur annually, can we'll affor6 to
do everything that can" be <done to
ward off the dreaded disease. Bet
ter economic in other matters, The
present legislature hasj been very
lavish with the peoples money, and
especially does the appropriation Of
millions of dollars for the interior
decorations Of the state capitol,
seem the height of extravaganza.
A few frescOes less on the capitol
walls and few thousand dollars in
stead devoted to this humanitarian
project, would be wiser expendi-
ture Of public money. Let the sam
atorium be established.

hours and half he was the guest Of
the city Of Spokane and Of the Inland
Empire. During that time he greeted
and spoke to many thousands Of the
people through the most attractive
sections of the city, drove three times
across the Spokane river at different
points around the falls, turned the sod
for the 8. A. A. c. building, and per-
formed the same service for the new
Masonic temple, addressed 5000 school
children in Occur d'Alene park. took a
birds-eye view of the city from the
heights of Seventh and Eighth avenue,
drove at the head of the parade down
Riverside avenue, decorated as never
before, and addressed as many thou
sands of people as can come within
reach of his voice. The president then
returned to his private car and pro-
ceeded on his way to Helena. In the
evening the city enjoyed the fare and
noise of the most elaborate fireworks

an almost worshiping host; but it was
more inspiring, because it was the tri-
butte Of free people to hero Of war,
and statesman OF peace.
Spokane's welcome to Roosevelt will
be remembered for years by those who
participated in 1t, however humble the
part they played-from the lusty shout
er on the curbstone to the gentleman
in silk tile who was fortunate enough
to secure place in the parade. 1t was
a pageant such as the Inland Empire
has never seen before, and which it
will not see soon again.
Estimates are that from $4,000 to
$4,000 people saw President Roosevelt
deliver his address. Probably not to
exceed one third that number heard his
address. At the intersection of Lincoln
street and Main avenue in front of the
speakers stand, thousands were mass
ed as tightly as they could stand. Far
out on the haymarket on Main avenue,
on the steps of the Vincent church and
from every direction about the stand
hundreds more gathered. On the basis
OF one person to every square foot 1t is
estimated that the crowd around the
grand stand numbered easily from u.s.
900 to 100000
Thousands made no effort to hear
the address, preferring to line the route
of the final drive to the Northern Pa
cific depot to catch farewell glimpse
of the president rather than to Join the
pushing, perspiring mass in front OF
the speaker. Probably 5000 persons
gathered near the depot to witness the
departure.
Conservative estimates place the
number of visitors in the city yester
day at 10000.
The fireworks display, that formed
a fitting close to a most brilliant day
for Spokane, began at 3 O'Clock, and tt
say that 1t was the finest ever seen IL
this city would express the consensu!
of opinion Of the spectators, but woult
be mild praise.
