NEW YEAR WITH
YANKEE DONS.
*T J. M. SCANLAND,
mHB Spanish Mexicans of Callfornln
and the southwest celebrate
their New Year's In tb?
fUjKjfl same romantic and pastoral
styl^hat their ancestors brought from
the "mother country." This celebration
Is not so replete with Acadian
simplicity, however, ns In the Acadian
days liefore the "Americanos'* came In
such largo numbers. Iu those "good
old days that come uo more" the dons
led the customs of the country, and,
though some of the forms are observed.
the Rplrlt. charming simplicity and
much of the genuine hospitality have

these pretty scenes. Each village still

the pnst generation. Their Christmas
lasts until after New Year's. With
their ancestors, however, life in this
quiet and distant land was an almost
perpetual Christmas.
Now. as In former times, the villagers
make presents more of a useful
nature than otherwise, such as poultry.
vegetables, fruits and perhaps
sheep or an Andalusian pon.v. The return
presents are of equal value. This
fs n point of honor, ami to return n
bauble to the donor of a valuable present
would subject that person to endless
ridicule.
On New Year's day the principal don
of the village or settlement gives a
(rand dinner, to which everybody Is invited.
And they generally come. The

domo around with a. verbal invitation
for everybody to honor the don by attending
his annual New Year's dinner.
Now there Is not so much formality.
This dinner lasts nil day and
the next or as long as any of the
guests continue to honor the host by
their presence.
Tables are arranged under arbors,
and the barbecued meats, the fruits,
wines and other edibles which have
beeu collected for tlie past week are
?erv?d by the pretty senoritas of the
don's household, some of his numerous
relatives of course assisting in dispensing
the honors. During the day there
are the usual horse racing, cocking
mains ami perhaps a bullfight. The
latter, however. Is not ro fashionable
now as in the early and "good old
days."
In the evening the amusements lend
off with what is called the "lottery of
love." By this lottery it is determined
who are to Im? sweethearts for the coming
year. The name of each young
lady present is written upon a slip of
paper and placed In a box. and the
name of each young man Is placed In
another box. A little girl and a little
|>oy are blindfolded, and each draws a
panic simultaneously. The senor and
aenorlta tints mated by chance are to
i>e "compndros." or companions, for the
year beginning with that evening. The
acnor must accompany her to every
feast. Indie or public* entertainment

fo Invite some one else. When the
couple are not happily mated, this refusal
Is usually the case, and, while

pilsmnted them, the formalities must

After this lottery tlie halle, or "gran
dance," is announced by tlie don, who

thanks his guests, and the bnilc opens
with a contra dance, the tirst step being
a half turn to the right and embrace
partners, the senor very delicately
puffing ills arms around the senorltn 1

dance la omitted only when intimate
friends compose tlio "set." It Is a very I ]

of love, will no doulit be coutinued
in these settlements as long as there

dons to celebrate the day.
(irprllnc the Mnv Ceutury.
The wide discrepancy between the indications
of various timepieces, which
covers a range of perhaps a quarter of
an hour, even In clocks which enjoy a
reputation of being well regulated,
naturally results In a rather ragged heginning
of the welcome to the infant
year. The early birds have the advantage
In the total amount of noise
produced, but their premature efforts
are purely local In effect. The real
symposium of hubbub does not make
Itself heard until at the exact instant
when the last minute of the dying year
lias breathed its last. Then it rolls
forth in chaotic volume, accompanied
by engine whistles, bells, firecrackers,
yells and every variety of born toot
that lias ever been devised by the Ingenuity
of man. It seems to endure for
many minutes without an appreciable
break, although there is nn linenn.
tinned report that individual noisemakers
have been known to stop for
breath or to give their second wiud a
good flying start. Chimes which in ordinary
times are irresistible in sweetness
can scarcely be heard on New
Year's morning except by ears close to
the belfry or during a lull in the babel
of noises all around.
A Success.
"Was the wedding a success?"
"I guess so. The bride's mother was
in tears, the groom's mother went her
one better and had hysterics, you
couldn't hear a word of the ceremony,
and the church was so crowded that
three women fainted. Yes. it was a
success all right."?Idfe.
The Vnni|iirc llut.
South America, especially Venezuela,
is the home of the vampire bat, that
horrible animal whose blood sucking
propensities are so well known. In
Venezuela the vampire when caught Is
often made the subject cf an experiment
that is as curious as it is <-rm?l.
though lu connection with such n loath
some nnimal as this giant hnt the cruel
ty Is rather naturally lost sight of b\
the people who have to suffer from its
ravages.
The vampire is captured In a thiol,
cloth. It is then taken out. and through
Its two extended wings nails are drlv
en, securing the animal to a door or a
wooden paling. A cigarette is then
lighted and placed in the hat's mouth
At once t lie animal's eyes shine
strangely, and it begins to puff the
smoke in ami out with frenzied gasps
Its actions being exactly those of the
most hardened smoker, keeping firm
hold of the cigarette the while between
Its sharp, deadly teeth. When the elg
nrette is nearly finished, a blow on Unbend
puts an end to the animal's ex
Istonce.
The extraordinary part of tpe expert
tnont lies In the fact that the hnt does
not at once reject tlie cigarette, as he Is
of course at liberty to do. There an
many who affirm that tlie bat really
does enjoy tlie tobacco. The probnbili
ty Is that the animal is so maddened
by fear and pain that lie puffs away
unrcnsotiingly nixl liercely. his Instinct
telling him that in the properties of the
tobacco lies oblivion.

peudcd from his shoulders l?y straps. ]
The body of the sack Is made by cutting
heavy cotton two bushel grain
sacks in such a way that the tlap '
hanging below in the illustration (Fig. y
1) Is cut opposite to a similar flap*1
thus making two of these picking
sacks from one two bushel sack. A ,
heavy steel wire curled into a hook at <
each cud is sewed around the mouth 1
of the rack, excepting that the space t
between the books shown as coaling 1
against the picker's body Is left vacant,
there being nothing between the
hooks but the cloth of the sack.
The suspenders are fastened penna- ,
uently at the back and are crossed on (
the individual's back, brought over the i
shoulders, and each lias a ring in the i
end which is hooked into the curved I
wire, as shown, thus suspending the 1
suck to the picker. The bottom of the ''
sack as shown iu Fig. 1 is open and
contains two rings at the bottom.
These rings are connected when iu use
to hooks at upper front rim of the |
sack, as shown iu Fig. 2, where the
picking sack is ready for business.
When full, the picker lowers the sack
into the box or barrel, unhooks tile llap. i
and the apples gently slide from the
bottom of 1110 sack Into the package,
thus preventing all bruises. President i
Wellliousc has made 27 of these sacks
for use this year. i
