No Lawyers in China.

To prove the laws of China in re-
gard to marriage was found by Mrs.
Low Shees attorneys to be a more
difficult task than they at first sup
posed, but they finally succeeded yes
terday, when they put Chung Pao Shi,
the acting consul-general, on the wit
ness stand in Judge Coffey's court.
Low Shee, who resides in China, is
claiming the estate left by Chew Bing
Quota, a merchant of Chinatown. and
the opposing claimant is Lum Quota,
a woman who lived with Chew Bing
Quota for yearshere. 1t is alleged that
Low Shee was legally married to Chew
Bing Quota in China and that Lum
Quota for years here. 1t is alleged that
bine Vice Consul Ouyan King inter
preted the Consups testimony. No
regular Chinese interpreter in the city
spoke the Consul's dialect, it was
stated, and so the vice-consul was
called.
Judge Coffey smiled when informed
by the consul that there were no at
torneys at law practising in China, and
that lawyers were not wanted in the
courts there, the judges doing all the
questioning to ascertain the facts.
The consul stated that he was ac-
uuainted with the laws of the Chinese
empire and had read the Chinese law
relative to marriage. He identified
Chinese books which were produced In
court as copies of the laws of the en-
pire. He said that an essential fea-
ture of every marriage in China was
the sending Of a card giving the brides
ancestry for at least three genera
tions.-San Francisco Chronicle.

SURVEYORS
RESUME WORK HERE

VI. C. Hinderlider arrived last night
with force of fifteen men 10 resume
operations on the survey for the gov
eminent canal and storage reservoir
Two camps will be establisned--one
up the Animas valley two or three
few miles. The force will be divided
into three parties.
A reporter said TO Mr.. Hinderlider
that when he left here last winter
some of the skeptics said he would
not return--that he had found the
work to be so expensive the govern
ment had decided to abandon the
scheme.
To this he replied that 100000 had
already been expended on the survey
and they did not propose to quit now
but on the contrary would carry the
work to completion.
He had been quoted as saying work
had progressed far enough TO esti-
Ter on the land would be as much or
more than $50 an acre. He said this
was true. II would probably be more
han $50 an acre, but how much more
could not he told at this time. The
cost for watering each acre could he
greatly reduced If the department OF
he interior could be induced to bring
the Navajo lands north of the San
Juan river under irrigation through
the proposed system There are ap'
nroximately 100000 acres of these In
dian lands, and by bringing them un-
der water and the government bear
ing It's proportion of the expense. the
cost per acre would be greatly les
sened.
Asked If he did not fear the cost
would he prohibitive, Mr.. Hinderlider
emphatically said no. He said as
soon as water was put onto the land
II was worth at the lowest calculation
$50 an acre. He cited the case OF
Las Vegas. where he said the people
were begging the government to build
Il storage reservoir at a cost of $57 so
per acre.
1t is settled that the water will be
taken out of the Animas above Ami
mas City and run through tunnel
to be cut through the divide to the La
Plata valley. The tunnel will be
about two miles long.
1t is expected the surveyors will be
in this section all summer.

ANCIENT PEDIGREE OF SACRED
EASTER CAKES AND BUNS

Wnen the great Easter tide rolls
its bosom wonderful mass of drift
wood from those ancient festivals
when man was struggling TO express
his JOY over natures resurrection
from her long wintry trance; but no
single tradition of this Christian ju-
bilee dates further back into the child
hood OF the world t'nan the use of
sacred bread and cakes.
How many of the London venders
who cry Hot cross buns" on Good
ian lands who keep the cross-marked
loaf for sale at this holy period, have
the faintest notion of the antiquity of
sacred cakes?
Like many another rite or symbol
ism which figured in the religious GER
emonies of the pagan world. and
was adopted by the early Christians
with a holier meaning attached, the
Good Friday bun dates back thousands
of years. Hslop tells us in his
WI babN ithf NhuN ioups, vi
bread offered TO the gods from the
most ancient times were similar to
our hot cross buns Of Good Friday.
and that buns. known by that self
same name, We're used in the worship
of the queen OF heaven" Ishtar or
Astorte, as early as the days of Ce-
crofs. founder OF Athens, in 1900 b.
C.
Many We're the virtues ascribed to
these sacred cakes. Not only were
they generally used in the direct serv-
ices of ancient doiatry from time
immemorial, but In families OF the
early Christian period in England, as
safeguards against disease and dan
ger. One authority says that In sew.
eral of the English counties, even to
this day, small loaf OF bread is
baked annually on the morning of
Good Friday and put by till the same
anniversary comes again. 1t is not
meant to be eaten, but is used as
ed into water and made into a sort of
panada. This is considered posi-
tive cure for many disorders
Brand quotes a writer in the Gen
tleman's Magazine, VINO says that
these little loaves were formerly un-
leavened and always marked with the
sign OF the cross, In mis- History OF
Northumberland" Hutchinson derives
the Good Friday bun from toe sacred
cakes offered at the Arkits temples
Some writers date the origin of the
not cross bun. az We have 1t today,
from plague-stricken period Of the
middle ages, when the church, at the
request OF many physicians, agreed to
relax the very rigid diet prescribed, |
for the faithful on Good Friday, and
allowed them to eat bread or buns, |
but the stipulation that they should |
all be marked with the sign of the |
cross. This custom, as applied to
'rn Italy and parts of Spain.
From the earliest times of which
my records are preserved, sacred
:alles and bread had prominent place
n the crude forms OF WORSHIP of the
human race. They took on sacred
'haracter as forming the great staple
n stan Of life, Being regarded as
lirect gift from the heavenly powers.
What more appropriate Offering could
here be to place on their shriues at
estal occasions?
