NEBRASKAN STARTS
BACK MARCH 80

81 do not believe the statement that
the Nebraskan s sugar cargo will
be diverted from San Francisco to New
York, or that the Nebraskan will take
it there said the freight agent of the
American Hawaiian Steamship Com
pany yesterday. "The Nebraskan is
scheduled Ito start back for Honolulu
on March So, and / know of no change
in the schedule.
The statement which was referred to
was that contained under a San Fran
cisco date line of March II, as follows;
Probably the most interesting feature
was the refusal of the owners of the
cargo of raw sugar which arrived on
the steamer Nebraskan on Tuesday to
deliver to the purchasers here on the
ground that the quotation was fake
figure, juggled Intentionally by the
sugar trust for the express purpose of
making the price on this particular car
go Use. per ID. The owners promptly
ordered the steamer to make ready to
sail for New York and make delivery
there. In order to show how complete
ly the sugar trust is manipulating
prices 1t may be stated that Yesterday
the price on raw sugar was advanced
to DC. In New York and as that market
rate is the governing element in pay
ing for the cargoes arriving at this
port it is probable that the Nebraskan s
cargo of about 1000 tons will now be
delivered here 1t is also worthy of
note that the sugar trust did not want
the Nebraskan to sail for New York.
The voyage would require quite a long
time and the trust is Wei aware of the
fact that raw sugar is almost sure to be
considerably higher about the middle of
the year. Hence the sudden advance
to Sc Yesterday

CHRISTMAS REF
From Time Immem0rinI Part Of the
Holiday Celebration.

from Time ii G mOr1nl Iart OF the
Holiday Celebration.
From time immemorial a tree has
been a part of the Christmas celebra-
ton. 1t may be seen outside the tradi-
tional Managers in the missals and early
paintings of the preraphaelite Italian
school. In the tree or near it are seen
angels in flowing robes singing IL Of
a scroll of Illuminated paper the
"Peace on Earth and Good Will To-
ward Men" or "Glory, Glory, Halle
luiah!"
The correct German Christmas tree
always has an angel or a Christkind on
the topmost branch, with a tinsel star
at the end of a staff, like a p%antomime
fairy, and If the tree belongs to a very
orthodox family there is usually at its
foot a small toy group representing the
Saviour's birth in the stable at Bethle-
hem.
The lights on the tree are said to be
of Jewish origin. In the ninth month
of the Jewish year, corresponding near
ly to our December, and on the TWEEN
ty-ffth day, the Jews celebrated the
feast of dedication of their temple. 1t
had been d%esecrated on that day by
Antiochus. 1t was dedicated by Jul
das Maccabeus, and then, according to
the Jewish legend, sufficient oil was
found in the temple to last for the
seven branched candlestick for seven
days, and it would have taken seven
days to prepare new oil. Accordingly
the Jews were wont on the 18th of Kis-
leu in every house to light a candle, on
the next day two, and so on till on the
seventh and last day of the feast seven
candles twinkled in every house.
1t is not easy to fix the exact date of
the Nativity, but 1t fell most probably
ON the last day of Kisleu, when every
Jewish house in Bethlehem n Jeru-
salem was twinkling with lights. 1t is
worthy of notice that the German name
for Christmas is Weihnacht (the night
of dedication), as though it We're asso-
ciated with this feast. The Greeks al
so call Christmas the feast of lights,
and, indeed, this was also the name
given to the dedication festival, Cha
nuka, by the Jews.-New York Mail
and Express.

AN UNEXPECTED GUEST.
The Butterfly That Lived In n Christi
mas Tree.

-
mas Tree.
Papa, Archie and May went to the
woods to get a Christmas tree and
found just what they wanted-a little
pine, bushy and straight.
There is something l must cut off"
said Archie. lie pointed to a little gray
bunch on one of the twigs and pulled
out his knife.
mo, no!' cried May, holding his
hand. Let it stay. It's a poor little
aaterpillar's house,
May was right. One Indian summer
day a caterpillar, dressed in brown
velvet, was taking a walk in the
woods. At last he came to the little
pine tree and thought to himself,
what a nice place to spend the win
teri
So he made himself a little house.
He made it very tight and close, of
fine, soft thread, and fastened up the
door. He did not leave himself even a
window to look out. If there had been
one, how it would have surprised him
to see that he and his house and the
pine tree were riding in a sleigh with
papa and May and Archie.
He would have been still more sur
prised if he had seen the tree standing
in the parlor, covered with toys and
trinkets and little candles.
ut must be spring at last" he
thought, for it was very warm in the
parlor.
So he poked a hole in the wall of his
house, and out he came. But what do
you think? He was not a caterpillar.
"Oh, see the lovely butterfy!' cried
May.
He flew to the tiptop bough, and the
children said there was nothing else
on the tree SO pretty as the butterfly.
HE must have come down the Chin
ney with Santa Claus" said May. And
she never guessed that he came out of
the caterpillar's house.-Youth's Com
panion.
