The idea is the same that prompts some pious people to enclose tracts in all their correspondence. From Manila, the broadcast gospel is the ' good news' that the time is at hand for the first annual Philippines carnival. All are welcome-even Japances; at least, so we trust; for if the venom of race hatred is permitted to besmear this fraternal mani festation of businesslike enterprise, then 13.00 the whole thing becomes a mockery and a farce, like the old story that the valley of the Mississippi offers hospitality to all mankind, or at least that part of it that was supposed to be writhing under the oppres sion of feudal and effete Yurrup. Though American ports are daily turning back undesirable immigrants, though the ory i America for the Americans, it might not be so if the biggest thing in Empires were promoting, a carnival. Manila wants visitors. It is sending out into the highways and byways of the world invitations to come and see. It is good idea. Far Eastern society is supposed to rote "calling" a bore, but perhaps that is an invention of somebody whose calls were not returned.

We have already published the elaborate prospectus, showing what big things are to be done during the week commencing Monday February 3id. It is quite refreshing to find local differences ignored, local squabbles dropped, and all hands united in a pull-together mood to do something for the prosperity of the islands they occupy At carnival time the cur-

There he entertained a number of. fomalos and concluded his pleasant funday afternoon 838 in debt. As be had one dollar only in bis pocket the proprietor of the hotel decided to keep the bicycle until payment was forthcoming, and the youth was quite agreeable. As he did not return the mashine that night the master of the bicycle shop put the matter in the hands of the police, and the cyclist was arrested and charged with Iareery. The case was remanded pending a reply to a letter written to the youth's parents in Canton.
