CHINES ON WATER WAGON
Chinamen Will Board Thirst-Killing
Buggy New Lear's Day.
MELICAN MAN ALSO INVITED
Saturday la Flrat of Chinese Neir
' Trap and It Will Ba Celebrated
by Raab. (or tha Water
Wagon.
"Ilaplce New Lear," likewise happy day
for thoaa who have toppled off the water
wagon or dropped the whip and climbed
down after It as the great tank paaaed on.
Promptly at 12:01 Saturday morning' the
Chinese cart will start from Eleventh and
bodge streets, near tl.a police station, and
Omaha Chinamen will welcome all Ameri
cans or others who wlnh to Join them In
ushering In the year of 14.9U6. p
"It'll gland chance to lide for Mult-
cans who rollee from lound wagons," said
a Celestial. "Alee may come but thern
wearing celluloid dollars and lide until
H.309."
Many Americana have slipped from the
round top wagons which they caught at
midnight January -1 and some of those
who announced in the newapapers that
they were in comfortable seats, just be
hind the drivers, were the first to slide
oft the buggies. But the Chinese have a
flat top wagon, and If the crowd Is large
have promised to Use a hayrack or bob
sled. ' '
No qualifications ' will be required, ac
cording to Wan Lee Blng, the driver, tx
oit that the celluloid collars be left at
home. Gradually the Americans who ride
with the Chinks will be expected to Warn
to drink water through their teeth. In
stead of spraying It between their shoe
pegs, as the Chinese laundrymen are re
quired to do.
Only Plan fur the Day.
Outside of the preparation for launching
the water wagon, the Chlntae of Omaha
have made tittle or no preparations for
celebrating the day. They have been send
lug greetings to their friends In tha old
country, but Just what Is written on the
postal cariis. Is an unsolved mystery at the
postofflcev1 Wan Lea Sing translates some
of the characters to mean "Hoppy Nu Yer."
while after an hour's hard work postal
clerk at tha office has pulled a penman
ship wreck apart, which was deposited on
a newly laundried cuff and addressed to
China. The clerk Is authority for tin
statement that the greeting sent on. the
cuff meant "flippy Year." but no one
seems to know what year. Wan Le Sing
thinks H Is 14.3U8, but other Chinks make a
strtug of figures .which looks like the
total sum of money Lawson has expended
telling the "shrimps" about the system.
Mall coming to Omaha Chinaman from
the cities within the walls will be delivered
if possible to the right ChlnkB, but the
mall carriers may be compelled to hand
some of the cards with fractured addresses
to the first Chinaman they meet, and let
him do the rest.
Some of the Omaha Chinamen will turn
over a new leaf on Saturday, but the police
believe most of them will turn over on their
bunks and roll another litter of pills.
