THE CHINESE NEW YEAR.


Both here and i'm California the Chi
nese are today celebrating the Chinese
New Year. But both here and in san
Francisco the Chinese consuIs. as well
as the Minister at Washington will no,
celebrate the New Year until tomorrow
The difference i'm date between the Po-
pular and the official celebration dates
from 1896 or 1897 and came about
through the western ideas imbbed by
Minister WI Ting Fang.
When tie first Chinese immigrants
came to California, they very natural
ly carried their calendar with them
2-ross the ocean calculating the days
by dead reckoning. The ships on which
they came corrected the calendar at
the lSOth meridian, but of this the Chi
nese knew nothing. The result was
that as soon as they we've east of the
lSOth meridian the Chinese were one
day out of their reckoning. They did
not known this however, and continued
to go on with this error of day. When
any of them returned to China, they
made no counter correction i'm crossing
this meridian the other way, hence
when they got home the two errors had
neutralized each other If there ever
was suggestion that there was any
error i'm the calculation, this fact would
have been taken as proof by the or
binary Chinese mind that there was
not.
But Minister WI with his Yale edu-
cation, of course understood as well as
anyone, the theory of this correction of
dates on crossing the 180th meridian,
and when he was Minister at Washing
ton he issued a proclamation address,
ed to all the Chinese in America set
ting forth the principle of the correc-
ton and urging the Chinese to recog-
nige il, in this proclamation he di=l
rected that the celebration of the Chi
nese New Year should thereafter be on
the day which it would fall on accord
ing to western calculation. This was
of course binding on Consuls and other
officials, but not upon the unofficial
Chinese, and it has been found impos-
sible to get them to adopt it.
One of the reasons given why the
Chinese, usually so doclle in following
the directions of officials have not fol-
lowed this, is that the Chinese almanac
makers I'm their almanacs, point out the
lucky and unlucky days for particular
kinds of undertakings. Naturally the
Chinese who regard these things feel
that If there is any shift of days as
there would be if Minister Wu's sug-
gestions were adopted he might be
getting married or doing something
else of that sort on the worst hoodoo
day in the calendar. Hence he will
take no chances. Hence the popular
and the official celebration of the

.SPRECKELS SAYS
NO ASSESSMENT
THE OCEANIC STEAMSHIP co.
WILL MANAGE TO GET ALONG
WITHOUT ADDITIONAL FUNDS.

SAN FRANCISCO, January 22-At
the annual meeting of the Oceanic
Steamship Company yesterday, John
ID. Spreckels finally agreed to guaran-
tee that there would be no assessment
on the stock although the floating debt
has materially increased i'm the past
year. The overdraft at the end of
1903 was $1,557, 1852, and at the end of
1904 it was $1,71O,SS3, an increase of
$15S4OO.
Mr.. Spreckels first appeared to be un-
willing to give the guarantee, and did
so finally only on representations that
a refusal would destroy the value of
the stock.
In the course of the meeting a stock
holder inquired what was the intention
with regard to the floating deft, and
Mr.. Spreckels said he did not know.
His brother was absent, and they would
have to talk it over.
"That is no way to do" said E. p. e.
Troy. Il have sixty-five shares Of the
stock which / thought was a safe, tenn
porary investment, but if you let this
meeting go without a guarantee that
there will be no assessment the stock
will go to nothing"
81 cannot say anything" said Mr..
Spreckels. Il am not the only one to
consult"
Then" said Mr.. Troy, you had bet
ter adjourn this meeting for a week
so that you can give an answer, be-
cause if you don't the stock is ruined"
on these representations Mr.. Spreck-
els agreed to give the guarantee de-
manded.

IS SHOT DOWN AND
HURLED INTO RIVER
BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press
REDDING, Cal, May 26.-Francois
Heurtevant, a wealthy owner of the
Red Hill hydraulic mine near Junction
City. Trinity county, was murdered
yesterday afternoon and his body
thrown into the Trinity river.
Heurtevant and William Flowers
started from the mine to the Heurte-
want ranch and the former crossed the
river in a cage. Flowers went back up
the hill to turn on the water. While
there he heard a rifle report, looked
across and saw man run from a
clump of bushes, pick up Heurtevant's
body and hurl it into the river. Flowers
could not get across, as the cage was
on the opposite side.
A sheriff's posse is now out, but the
murderer cut the telephone wire before
committing the deed. The object, it is
thought, was robbery. Heurtevant
had bucket in his hand and the mur-
derer may have thought it contained
the cleanup.
One hundred men tonight are drag
ging the Trinity river for the body,
while the posse is securing the country
for miles on either side of the river in
search of Heurtevant's assailant.
Heurtevant intended to take the gold
from a gold cleanup, but at the last
minute postponed the transfer and took
an empty bucket instead. The citizens
of Junction City and vicinity swear a
speedy vengeance if his slayer is
caught.
