BIG CELEBRATION
ONINCHINATOWN
CELESTIALS ARE MOUNTING
WATER WAGON
ALL SORTS OF GOOD REsoLu-
TIoNs FOR YEAR 2s61
Los Angeles Citizens and Visitors
Tour Oriental Quarter During
Week of Gay FestiVl-
ties

HI HE big scramble for the water
wagon is on in Chinatown. The
II Chinese are making their resolu-
tions for the new year, 1861. Unlike the
busy American who takes only day
for this delicate process, the Chinese
in an endeavor to do the work COM
plete justice spends seven days and
seven night at the work. Whether his
result is more satisfactory than that
of the American can not be absolute
ly determined. But it is safe to say
that there viii be less dissipation in
Chinatown during the next few weeks
than there has been for some time.
Nothing counts until the New Year is
at least a week old. After that the
chop suey dishes will be a little Iarg-
er and more in accordance with the
pure food laws, there will be less money
spent at gambling, and father will not
smoke for while at least.
Yesterday was the first day of the
celebration. The streets were crowd
ed with idle Chinese and sightseeing
Americans. Many Los Angeles citi-
zens with visitors were through
the district in automobiles. The
ground everywhere was covered with
red paper from the firecracker of the
night before. There was a smile on the
face of every Chinese. According to
custom his debts were all paid on the
day before. Most of the men smoked
holiday cigars and all seemed happy.
The merrymaking will last an entire
week Every day big day." explained
a Chinese yesterday There will be
feasting and fireworks morning, after
noon and night. The enthusiasm is
expected to last up until the very
last moment in spite of the fact that
the stunt is 2cj1 years old.
The Chinese lilies are in full bloom.
This it Is said, is a good omen. The
inhabitants of Chinatown therefore
are looking forward to year os un-
usual prosperity. The most optimistic
of them even have predicted a fall
in the price of meat.

TRIES TO BE COP
BREAKS Ills HAND
Lad with Ambition to Act as Police
man Begins by Smashing
Nose of One of His
Playmates

A mighty funny bee must have been
buzzing in the bonnet of little frankie
Haynie when he conceived the notion
of becoming a cop. For his 12 years
he is an observing youngster and
ought to know what a cops job is-a
Los Angeles cops. anyhow.
His first step in the fulfillment OF
that laudable ambition-lest we forget
to become a Los Angeles splitter of
pates was to smash playmate in
the nose and break his own hand. So
all day today he will have to lie tucked
in his little bed. So much for want
ing to be a cop.
Frankie's idea of a policeman, based,
he says, on what he seem" is a
great big fellow dressed up in a uni
form that would make the wardrobe of
a Turkish brigadier general look like
the Sunday clothes of a cave dweller.
Said big fellow must them arm him
self with a huge bludgeon which he
will wear concealed in the daytime
and conflne his ferocity to narrowing
teamsters and pedestrians.
But when darkness falls-ahi this is
the time when, according to Frankie's
conception, the cop Kisses: Now for
the dirty work." Then it is that he
creeps up behind the man who weighs
about 100 pounds and stands nearly
five feet and beats him up for spit
ting on the sidewalk.
But the minute frankie started in
to perform one of these heroic acts
he went to the hospital He was a
trihe disillusioned last night, for be
fore the nurse turned down the light
she told him about some of the things
he overlooked. For instance, he would
have to be a fine sleeper and not be
too curious when he heard a noise that
sounded as If some good citizen was
being hammered to pulp over the mere
matter of watch or pocketbook. He
wasn't quite ready to abandon the
idea then, so the nurse said innocently
enough:
''Well. Frankie, If you want to be
policeman, you must go to Sleep
