Without wishing Mr. Baxter any
harm, it was the desire of many of

day's train would have a tough trip,
so that he would realize by person

and conquering. At 4 o'clock the

HIGHLY COLORED HILARITY.
Queer Kind of Fun That Goes With
One Hindu Festival.
The "Holi Festival." as celebrated
annually by the mabaraja of Patiala.
India, is described by Charles Ber
tram in his volume. "A Magician in
Many Lands." Mr. Bertram writes:
"Karlv in the uiuruiu£ I went to the
club, wheie I found many of the
guests, who were taking part in the
ceremony for the first time. We were
provided with a complete new suit of
Hindu garments, and our dressing
was superintended by the mahiraja'a
servants. We had camels, elephants
and victorias provided for us. 1 was
on an elephant. In a kind of bos. and
we drove in procession to the palace
of the native city.
"We were received with great ac
claim by the natives, and I was led to
believe that it was to be decidedly a
dignified occasion, but I was woefully
mistaken. The fun had not begun.
Certain formalities had to he gone
through before the signal was given.
"We took our seats in the courtyard
of the palace at a Ions table that was
loaded with larre tilt dishes filled with
different colored balls as large as or
anges and filled with holi powder. At
a signal the brother of the maharaja
came to the front of the table and sa
laamed to the prince, who took one of
the balls and threw it gently across
the table, striking the officer on the
breast.
"The ball broke and scattered the
powder over his costume. Then there
was a general scramble, and In less
time than it takes to write hundreds
of balls were flying about, their many
colored contents scattered broadcast
on the crowd. Next baskets of loose
powder were thrown upon us in hand
fuls.
"It was no use to expostulate: the
moment you opened your month some
body Oiled It with powder. The battle
grew fast and furious, when suddenly
an enormous stream of water from a
fire engine drenched everybody. The
colored powders became wet and. min
gling together, dyed us all in brilliant
ly variegated hues.
"After this sort of thing had gone on
for half an ht>ur it ceased by mutual
consent, and we returned to the pri
vate gardens of the maharaja. where
we were most unceremoniously pitch
ed into a tank of running w:iter. C
was dyed a deep scarlet all over my
body, ami it was fully a month before
the color entirely disappeared from my
face and bauds."

IS BINDING ON
THE OFFICIALS
Federal officials in every part of
Alaska are finding that the re
cent decision of the attorney-gener
al concerning the Alaska lawB ia
far reaching and tying their hands
in many different ways, says the
Cordoa Alaskan. The United States
commissioner at Sitka recently had
to provide for three children who
were dependent and had to be car
ed for immediately. Ho wired the
marshal at Juneau and was told
that it would be necessary to get
an ord r from Judge Jennings to
make an appropriation for the child
ren from the indigent fund. The
money remaining in the indigent
fund on December 31 reverted to
the United States treasury and is
therefor© unavailable. Judge Jen
nings was in Seattle and took the
matter up with the authorities at
Washington. In the meantime the
citizens of Sitka are caring for the
children.

TEMPERANCE,
In speaking of temperance we
are prone to think of it as related
only to the drinking of alcoholic
liquors.
Dear friends, the word Is not
restricted to any such limited sense.
We are exhorted to be temperate
in speech, in eating, in thought
and in our relation to others.
How many of us who would scorn
to touch an intoxicating beverage,
allow the intempe ance of harsh
speech, ovpr-eating and exhibitions
of violent temper to cway us every
day!
How many of us are actually
mean and contemptible in our own
homes, with frip-'ntful outbursts of
temper, sullen looks, and sarcastic
speech that chill a household all
day, making the atmosphere unfit
to live in!
Tennyson wrote: "Wrangling soon
changes a home into a hell."
Is your home a place of wrang
ling?
God pity you if it is and God pity
you most ol all if you are the wrang
ler in it.
Go face yourself in your mirror
and ask yourself these questions:
"Am 1 a wrangler? Am I hateful
in my speech? Am I upsetting this
home by harsh words and an ungov
erned temper?"
Answer these questions unflinch
ingly; and if you are at fault, in
the name of the Creator mend your
ways and become a fit person to live
with.
Vou have nc moral right to speak
unkindly or b ; hateful in your action
than you have to offer your brother
drink or put any other stumbling
block in the way of his spiritual de
velopment.
Never mind what other people do
or are, just look to yourself.
We should cast the beam out of
our lives before we look for the
mote in others'.—Woman's Nation
al Weekly.
