Our Late Easter.

Easter falls upon a later date this
year than it has for 19 years. Easter
of this year is April 23rd. and the
Christian feast has not come so late
in the season since 1886, when it fell
on April 25th. This last date is the
very latest on which Easter can
come, and it will not fall again on
that date until the year 1943. Easter
has a range of 35 days on which 1T
can fall. The earliest date is March
22d and the latest is April 25th. In
1918 it fell on March 22nd, and it will
not do so again until the year 2285,
which is too far distant to cause
much worry among the present gen,
Grafton. When Easter fell on April
25th-the latest date-in 1886 it was
the first time it had been so late since
1886. Easter will fall on April 23rd
in 1915 and again in the year 1000.

The Revival in Wales.

For some months the little princi-
pality of Wales has been stirred by
one of those "gales of the Spirit"
which a recent writer in the London
Spectator declares to be a sign of the
vitality of the Christian religion.
''The Welsh Revival" is a standing
headline in some of the London pa
pers, beneath which will be found col
umns of reading-matter concerning
religious awakening the like of which
has not been known for generation.
No one man is the leader of the re-
vival, no committee manages It,. 1t
is a spontaneous movement, which In
a period of three or four weeks has
resulted in the conversion of more
than twenty thousand persons in a
single county; and it is not losing
strength, but gaining.
Ethical results have been imme-
diate. In one town, where the usual
number of cases of drunkenness and
disorder on a court day was ninety,
the number at the next session after
the revival was only twenty. There
has been, too, a noticeable increase
in local trade, because the money
which used to go to the public house
now goes to the grocer and the tailor.
The new converts join the churches
and assume their share of the cost
of public worshin and feuds which
separated men for years have ended
in handshake.
Those who are inclined to regard
all "revivals" as temporary in their
effect, and who class this one with all
that have preceded it, should consid-
er the testimony of Mr.. w. T. Stead,
who visited Wales for the sole pur-
pose of studying these spiritual phe-
nomena. "The best and most in
fuential men in Wales to-day" he
says, care those who were brought in
to the church by the great revival
of 1S59."-Exchange.

Proposition to Make a New State Out
of Appalachian District.

Col. Campbell Slemp, the only Re
publican Representative in Congress
from Virginia, and now solidly in
the saddle as dispenser of Federal
patronage in that State, says he will
introduce a bill at the next session
of Congress for the creation of a
new State out of Eastern Tennessee,
Southwestern Virginia and South
eastern Kentucky. He has discussed
the matter with President Roosevelt,
who has given his approval to the
proposition, which must first be ac-
cepted by the trio of States which
come together in the mountainous
section of land to be included in the
proposed new State.-Washington

ALLIGAToRs IN CAPTIVITY.
Not Hard to Raise, but Are Cannibals
and Eat Their Young

From the Scientific American
| Probably long as alligators have been
known the young have been kept as Gu
riosities. and most amusing pets do the
little fellows make. Unlike the young of
other wild animals, which are sometimes
domesticated when small, they grow very
slowly, especially when out of their natural
environment, and are consequently we'll
adapted for this purpose, as number of
years elapse before the alligator is large
enough to be troublesome or even danger
Gus. Alligators do not appear to be very
intelligent, the recognition of the person
who feeds them in captivity being about
the limit of their mental attainment The
older ones are sluggish and lazy, though
they sometimes fight yiciouSly with each
other, and are capable of doing terrible eX-
ecution when aroused
If properly taken care Of the young alii-
gator Will thrive even In unnatural circum-
stances. His main requirement is sufficient
heat, and if the box cage be kept at too
low temperature the little reptile becomes
languid and almost torpid, refuses to eat
for long periods and frequently dies at the
end of some weeks If however the tenn
perature of the air be raised, or the tank
wherein he lies be warmed by the addition
OF little hot water, he soon reviveS and
atteStS his continued interest in life by re-
newed activity and the temperance of his
appetite. Unlike the older members Of his
family, the young gator in captivity is
quite HVely, some tunes or an investigating
turn of mind. and usually combative, his
antics are often diverting. If he can escape
from his cage he will travel considerable
distances, and unless overcome by cold will
wander indefinitely, subsisting as best he
can.
Many people who have attempted to keep
young alligators have made the mistake OF
trying to feed them a vegetable diet for
the alligator is first and last carniyore.
The diet of the young, who should be fed
nearly every day, is simple, and consists of
bits of fresh meat, insects and worms.
They often show great fondness for the
ordinary earthworms. and will frequently
refuse all food but these. The larger speci-
mems in captivity are fed about three times
q week on fresh meat small live anil
mails, and they require little attention other
than this
The older ones, particularly the males.
will If possible, eat the small alligators
with avidity, and to check these cannibal-
istic tendencies the reptiles must be prop
erly segregated.
Alligators seldom breed in captivity and
while the females sometimes lay eggs, the
latter are usually unfertile. However, the
eggs that have been found in a natural
condition in the curious cone-shaped mud
nests are easily Matched by the application
of heat, and while the young are at first
feeble and helpless, they usually survive If
carefully handled. AlligatorS live to be of
great age, and there are a number of au-.
thentic records where individuals have been
known to exist for nearly a century.

Small Houses and Large.

From the Pittsburg Gazette.
Architects say that while, here and there
a millionaire is building a huge house with
forty, fifty or more rooms, the tendency
seems to be in favor of smaller houses. In
every city are TO be found old-fas hioned
mai sions as big as hotels and about as at
trs ctive in point of architecture. They are
a reminder of the days when a mans
wealth was indicated by the size of his res
idence. Houses are being built today of
half their size, which are twice as eXpen-
sive, owing to the nature of the finishing.
Never was there a period In this country
when more beautiful homes were being
erected, of every conceivable style of archi-
lecture. A quarter of a century ago fine
mar sions looked very much alike. Most of
them were either hideously plain or charac-
terized by an excess of horid ornamental
ton. The tendency today is toward ele-
CANT simplicity and Individuality.

King Haakon VII of Norway.
From the Review of Reviews

FROM the review or reviews.
Once more the ancient throne of Norway
in the Drontheim Cathedral, vacant for
more than five hundred years, will hold a
sovereign. Prince Charles of Denmark has
accepted the storthings proffer of the
crown, the approval by popular vote took
place on November IL and 13. and the coro-
nation will probably be celebrated on New
Year day, 1905.
Who is this man Charles, what can he
do, and why was he chosen by a parlia-
ment which has always shown republican
tendencies?
Prince Charles is a young man of thirty
three summers, of gentlemanly appearance,
in excellent health, and of a very easy-go-
ing. liberal turn of mind. He is by nature
men, who do not mind the harness so long
as they don't feel the whip. The very
thing that is going to make Charles popu-
lar in Norway before he shows his face
there is the fact that he. as typical sail
or prince" is considered a proper and nat
uraI connecting link between the old vik-
ing spirit of feudal Norway and her pres
ent day peaceful love of the sea. Another
circumstance in favor of Charles is that he
understands the language of the Norwe-
gian people, and their traditions and his
tory are part of those of his own country,
Denmark, under the dominion of which
Norway remained for four centuries.
Charles is the second son of the crown
prince of Denmark, whom he strongly re-
sembleS, and this also counts in his favor,
for the crown prince is a scion of the house
of Sonderburg-G luckburg, whereas the
crown princess is a daughter of the Berna-
dotte King Carl XIV of Sweden-and the
Bernadottes were never popular in Nor

Mexico Learning From United States


From the Review Of Reviews.
The study of English is compulsory in the
Mexican public schools Every year Mexico
sends to the United States a number of
school teachers to study American peda-
gogic methods. A great many Mexican
children are being educated in the schools
and colleges of this country, where for
merly they were sent to Europe. The num-
Der of Mexican visitors to the United States
and the number of American visitors to
Mexico is increasing every year. 1t Is said
that Yucatecans know New York better
than the City Of Mexico, and that west
coast MeXicans are more at home IN San
Francisco than in their own capital city.
Thus each year the American way of liv-
ing is taking a deeper hold on the Mexican
people,
The vice president of Mexico and an
nounced successor of President Diaz Is very
much AmericaniZed in his ideas. In fact,
! he might easily be mistaken for a plain,
shrewd American business man from his
appearance, manner and methods. He has
always been exceedingly friendly toward
Americans. AS governor of the state of
Sonora, he encouraged them to invest In
enterprises in his state and to settle therein.
He spared no effort in seeing that their
lives. property and civil rights were pro-
tected. He IS well informed about the
United States, and is a student of English.
He has three daughters in school at San
Francisco, and Is educating all of his chill
dren in the United States.
