SPRING FESTIVAL IN CHINA
Beginning of the Year Is Time Of
Rejoicing Throughout the
Whole Country.

In the United States one knows that
spring has come when he sees boys
playing marbles and flying kites. In
China, says the Christian Science
Monitor, there are regular spring play
ing festivals that all the people have
part and which are especially in
teresting for children.
Just when the spring festival comes
depends on the moon. It Is the be-
ginning of the year in China, and in
the first moon the magistrates and 9TH
err important persons in the town go
out in procession "to meet the
spring."
1t is at the lantern festival, the 18th
Of the first month, that the children
have the best time. Brightly colored
lanterns are everywhere, at the doors
of shops and houses, and carried in
professions. Boughs of evergreen are
also placed above the doors, and there
is an abundance of moon cakes" lit
tie round sweet rice cakes.
The boys dress up in all sorts of fam
tastic clothes, sing, dance and give lit
tie plays. They wear masks Of ami
mails and Of human faces. Companies
of them go about through the streets
of their villages, and from one village
to another. Now and then a group Of
maskers will be seen on high stills.
There is a very pretty dance where
every dancer carries lighted lantern.
This is called the lantern dance.

ExpIaininu "Mizpah.D

Mizpah or Mispeh is the name of
several towns in Palestine. The name
Is derived from verb of the ancient
Hebrew signifying to look or watch
| out. The word occurs In several places
in the Old Testament. The first men,
ton is the most significant. Jacob and
his prospective father-in-law, Laban,
met on slope of Mt. Gilead and en-
tered into a covenant. Laban had sew
eral times violated his agreement as
to the wages he was paying Jacob,
and Jacob demanded fair deal. When
they came to an agreement they raised
monument of stones, which Laban
declared should be called "Galeed, and
Mizpah." ''This heap shall be a wit
ness between me and thee this day.
The Lord watch between me and thee,
when we are absent, one from the
other" This passage is used as
benediction by the Young Peoples So
ciety of Christian Endeavor.

British CoIumbia's Coal.

Writing of the discovery Of coal In
British Columbia j Johnson in his "First
Things in Canada" states: Zone day
In December, 1S49, an officer of the
Hudson's Bay company in Fort Vic
tOria was Informed by the foreman Of
the blacksmiths shop that an old Ma
naimo Indian chief had just stated that
he, knew where there was STUFF like
that which the white man was using In
the b1acksmith's fire. The Indian was
told that if he would bring some pieces
of the stuff he would have his gun
repaired free and receive a bottle Of
rum. The chief reappeared in the fol-
lowing April (1S5O) with his canoe
laden with coal. A prospecting party
went out and found the coal where the
city of Nanaimo now stands. In 1874
the production of coal from the Ma
naimO mines amounted to 1000 tons !;
In 1896 it exceeded 100000 tons.

Leaders of the democratic party in
Wisconsin ask the voters of that party
to go to the primary next Tuesday and
support the members Of their own par
ty. That is logic and the spirit of
the law. That was one of the points
made by the proponents of the pri-
mary election, to keep each party
within itself so far as nominations for
office was concerned. Under the eau
Gus system which preceded the pri-
mary election law that right to vote
only for your own party men was pre-
served. Under the old caucus system
which antedated that, the gathering
was not protected in the form in which
it was later, and packed caucuses
were not an exception to the rule, re-
sulting in much dissatisfaction 1t is
now advocated by some newspaper
men that the democrats invade the
republican caucuses and vote for can
didates on the republican ticket. This
is wrong and thoroughly against the
spirit of fair play.

Common Heather pvirn Out.

In the case of such a plant as the
common heather of England and Scot
land, found growing wild in Nova
Scotia, it is a matter OF curious inter-
est to determine whether it is native
to the soil or has been introduced from
Europe. Lawson decided that the plant
had it's home here. There was a time,
it is thought, when The plant was alum
dant in our northern lands, and it's
present rare occurrence marks dying
out of the species On this side of the
ocean. Its vigorous growth in Europe
is due to the circumstance that there
it is young plant on virgin soil.

Brother Palmer of the Oconomowo OF
Enterprise evidently attended ''tea'
the night before he wrote the article
on the state senatorship. But that's
nothing new in newspaperdom. We
have made a few mistakes ourselves
The joke Of the mater is that he has
Arthur Mulberger as the candidate and
the picture of a republican, while the
candidate for the office is Senator
Charles Mulberger a life long demo-
crat. The intention was good so what
need anyone care. It only goes to
show that on newspaper work the best
OF us are liable to make mistakes.
