Chinese Children
Sing New Song to
Air of America" /"

NEW YORK, Jan. "A celebration OF
the establishment OF the Chinese repub-
lie, coincident with the Inauguration OF
It's first president was held in Chinatown
today.
Hundreds of Cinnamon rushed 20 their
BARRIERS early in the day and had their
queues cut away, serving as they said,
the last symbol OF Manchu rule. At
noon, when 5000 Cinnamon gathered for
the celebration, not queue was seen.
Many Of the Cinnamon also shook off
their sandals and in heavy American
shoes. climbed the stairs of the old Joss
house In Mott street which was re-
christened the "Chlnese Public Hail.
and gravely bowed before portrait OF
the new president, Dr. sun Vat Sen,
The holsting of an enormous flag OF
the new republic on top Of the ola Joss
house was the signal for cheering which
would have done credit to any American
foot ball crowd.
Chung Hua, Chung-Hua, hoola, hoola! I!
Vivela, vivela! Chun! Chun' Chun!" fairly
shook the old walls OF the Chinatown dis
trict
Chinese girls and boys, dressed in
American fashion sang a new Chinese
national song entitled The Country OF
the Chinese Republic" to the air OF
America"
The sentiment Of the song was some
thing as follows:
"Dr. sun Vat Sen has sown the seed
and grown the republic All or the
Chinese should be patriots, OF one heart.
one love and one life for their country
and liberty and freedom. Manchu rule
is gone and the Chinese shall remain
forever free"

NATIONS RUSSIAN TRADE
United States Sends twenty-five

WASHINGTON. Jan 2.--The large
number OF Inquiries received by the De
partment uf Commerce and Labor re-
garding the trade between the United
states and Russia has led to the prepara-
tion OF statement upon that subject
by the bureau Of statistics OF that de-
partment IL shows exports from the
United states to Russia approximately
81, eco 900: imports from Russia, $l2,0oo0O'
in the fiscal year 1911 and indicates that
trade between the two countries has
practically doubled in the last decade
the increase occurring In both imports
and exports. Hides and wool are the
principal articles imported from Russia
and cotton, agricultural implements,
binding twine, manufactures OF iron ana
steel, and manufactures OF leather are
the most important OF the exports to that
country.
The above statements are based upon
figures OF the United States government
showing imports from and exports to
Russia as reported to the bureau OF sta
tstlcs by the customs authorities Of this
country They differ materially, how
ever, from the official figures OF the
Russian government showing her exports
TO and imports from the United States.
Figures Disagree.
The Russian figures of imports from
tho United States are much larger than
United States figures Of exports TO that
country. while Russian figures OF eN-
ports to the United states are much
smaller than our own statement OF I'M
ports from that country. These dis
crepancles between the official figures
OF the respective countries are due chiefly
to the fact that, in many cases. GOODS
/ In the trade between the TWO
countries are not consigned d.
! rectly TO the country OF ultimate
destination. In such cases goods sent
| from tho United States to Russia or
/ from Russia to the United states arc
consigned first TO German, English or
other mIddleman who forwards them To
| their ultimate destination, This Is par
! tcularly true of cotton, which Is the
most important article OF export from
/ the United states to Russia. The united
states figures of total exports to RUSSIA
I'm the calendar year 1903 show htte
less than u7,OOO,OOO, while the Russian
figures show nearly S3O0OO,OOO worth OF
| imports from this country, On the other
hand. United States figures for the same
year show imports Of over N6"O'Wo
worth OF merchandise from Russia, while
Russian figures for the same period show
a little less than ss,OOO,OOO worth Of ex-
ports to the United States.
The following table, compiled from the
official reports OF the United States gov
ernment, shows the value OF our imports
from and exports to Russia in each fis-
cal year from 1901 to 1911:

Police Kept Extremely Busy Hand

TOO SMALL FOR CITY
Hope OF OFFICIALS that u May he
Increased During Coming Year
and that Auto Patrol May
he bought.

Last year showed a total OF 800 ar
rests by the local police department. OF
this number eight were for murder. Most
OF the arrests made, however. were for
minor offenses and misdemeanors.
This Is reckoned tribute to South
Omaha where, on account Of the great
number OF foreigners and those not Rc-
customed TO American ways. greater
number Of crimes would not be uneN-
pected.
The work Of the police department was
carried out during the year with an aver
age of sixteen men, which Is far from
sufficient number in city of $1,000.
Last year the department was handi-
capped By an overlap In the police fund.
This cntailed reduction OF the force
for several months and even yet the
force Is running short handed II Is
hoped by the chief and many citizens
that the police department will he in
creased during the coming year,
In order to facilitate tho capture Of
prisoners and reduce expenses II is eN-
pected that the police board and the
city council viii be ablo to provide some
means OF purchasing an auto patrol dur
ing tho year The patrol in use now Is
old and more or less dnapidated and
when hurry calls are received from out
lying districts the police arc at dis
tinct disadvantages The purchase OF an
auto patrol would, II is argued be of
immense assistance " the police In Quell-
ing rotous fights which are likely to
break out from time to time.

POINTED way 10 SALVATION
Preachers Advice Was All Right but
His Friend Also Had Something
Wise to Say.

Senator Samuel A. Ettelson, speak
ing recently at a banquet. told the fol-
lowing:
A colored preacher stood up on a
Sunday and said, Ny text this morn
ing, brothers and sisters, am What
shall do to be sayed? To me there
seems only one way to be saved, and
that am to quit this'ere extravagant
living. Back to the simple life, say I.
There am going to be no chance for
you to be saved 80 long as you keep
up this high living. II there is any
thing that is going to kill our race 1t
Is these'ere Injuries. Better go hun
cry and cold like the wolf. Go out
and face the rains and fight the
storms Go wade Hike the crane. You
will grow rugged and you will grow
tough, but you'll walk like man.
Yes, sir, that am de way to salvation,
that am de way to get saved
just then tall colored man, ris-
ing from his pew in the rear Of the
church, interrupted the preacher,
shouting This am no way to be saved.
You just jump right through that back
window and run just as fast as your
legs will carry you, for the county
sheriff am here with a warrant for
your arrest for stealing them chickens
from Massa Martins coop last Friday
night. &C Chicago Tribune.

WANTED TO FINISH THE JOB
Pride In His Work, Not Tender Heart,
Was What Induced the Chauffeur
to Return.

They were going along the public
highway at leisurely rate of forty
miles per hour, when decrepit hen
and rooster started to do the chicken
special-cross the road.
The front and hind wheels on the
right side struck the poor, old, stiff
jointed rooster amidships, and with
one squaWk he succumbed.
Immediately the man at the steering
wheel started to slow down and to
look about for a place to turn.
His solicitous wife turned to her
seatmate and said:
Isn't that just like his tender heart
He won't be satisfied unless he goes
back and settles for that rooster. He
just can't bear to feel he has injured
anyone or anything
Then louder, to her husband, she
said: George, remember that ap.
pointmeRt. We haven't any time to
go back for anything"
CHANGING at the clock near his feet
and at the speedometer near by, he
sighed and said:
You're right, Jennie; but just
know If / had turned back / could
have killed that old hen just as easy
as / did the rooster. Judge. Z
