It In with u. But It ha a deeper sig--nlflcanre. for it ha been buiH up around mitlonal tradition as old aa the Deluge Itself and strengthened with legends Innu merable of pagan gods and Druldlcal cus toms, of folk tales of heroes who were stolen away to fairyland on that night and the beliefs regarding the falrlea that have sprung up since the Christian era and are till springing up In the unspoiled parti! f Ireland. The fairies have three great festivals throughout the year May eve, or Besltanle night; Midsummer ever, or 8t. John's eve, end Hallowe'en, or Samhaln night. Hal loween, according to the old Druldlcal dl vision of the year, comes on the last day of summer. Their name for It Samhaln night means "summer's end." It is the gloomiest night of the whola twelve months to the fairy folk. The Fe-fiada, or spell of enchantment. Is removed from all the gentle (fairy) hills and rath as the last bit of daylight fades, and all the fairies come trooping forth to moorlands and mountains to join In a mad revel with the khost and witches and banshees and that most demoniac spirit of all, the dreaded 1'ooks. If you have ever been In Ireland on Hal luwe'en you will remember that all night long the wind walls round the housetops and makes a fearful moan. It Is really not the wind you hear, but the great la mcnt or Caoln that the fairies make for the dead summer. As the falrlea are allowed to leave their hills, so mortals sre allowed to enter them, nd many a venturesome lad has gone Into the depths of the rath and brought back wonderful tales of fairy palaces and gar dens and the like. Fairy Cobbler Released. tin Hallowe'en the leprechaun, the fairy cobbler, leaves the thornbush under which he has worked all summer, making and mending th fairies' shoes, and hurries Into the earth to stay till May day brings him out again. You can hear the tap,' tap, tap of his hammer In the long dusk of the summer evenings; the worldly wise say tt Is the woodpecker. As the fairies dance every night all summer and as they are said to wear their shoes out at one dance the leprechaun Is kept busy till the last day of October, when his long winter res begins. When the country folk see the leaves whirl and edd along the road they say, " God bless them," for they know they ara the fairies In one of their many disguises. I'll among the hills In the north of Ire land to this day peasants will spread the table at night before going to bed that the v!rHs nd fairies may not go hungry, I here Is Paddy, for example, who has seen the fairies often. He lives by him self in a wee thatched cabin with only his geese about him, and every Hallowe'en he brushes up his hearth until It Is spotless; lie clears out the dirt from eaoh corner and crack and then he stacks the turf on the fire till the room Is bright from the light of It. Out he pulls a small table from the wall,: on which he spread a elotli and on the cloth he puts a jug of milk ami an earthen dish, of soda bread- This ia for the "wee people," as Paddy calls the falrlea, n.a, when everything Is ready Paddy re tires behind the curtains of his outshut bed mid goes to sleep, so thst his compsny msy hi no way disturb them. Mortals Are Released. corns back loaded to the gunwales with ih. If the old man himself Is ill and not able to go the boys take his ht and tit It lo the bow. and the luck stays by them list the same.

I.ea-eaas from Doneaal. If you should be lucky enough to spend Hallowe'en with the hill folk In Donegal you would hav a night of merrymaking and. story telling that you would never forget; and ever afterward you would count 1t one of the warmest memories of your life, for on Hallowe'en in Donegal twenty cabins will empty their families Into one. The miracle Is that there Is always room enough for all and the stran ger, too, who may come knocking at the door. Young and old gather round the hearth. where the turf grows red and over which the kettle Is hung for a "sup o" tea" later, There are the lads Just back from the quarries or the herring fleet, fine lads, all of them, and the red cheeked carthna, with their shy eyes and their sort voices. There are grannies and grandads and the mothers and fathers, Ood bless them! Tucked away In the chimney corner Is a cradle, full and silent; and big eved children peer out from behind grownup pettiooats. Pad rale, the piper, comes with his war pipes under his arm, and Hughey Burn, the best fiddler from BaJlyshanny to MaJIn Head. Next follow Barney the tailor, who can dance more reels loan there are day In the month. The "maether" comes late, for he has to walk from the school at Ardara a good stretch of mites. Mick, the post boy, come after him. Mick has a voice as sweet as the throstle's, and he can sing tear Into your eye any time hs trie. Last of all come Jamls hobbling down the road you can hear bis, "It's a brave evenin' Just! before he gets Into the yard. iffveryDoay loves Jamie O'Frlel. He I the oldest ahanachy, or storyteller, allvs In the north of Ireland, the last of an old tiaruic family, and he knows a hundred stories by heart In English or Gaelic. There Is no gathering In the parish con sidered complete unless Jamie Is present. The fun begins with the young folks dancing. The center of the cabin Is cleared. Hughle tune up his fiddle and the boys and girls start In with the good old six hand reel, then one dunce follows another In quick succession. There Is the fairy reel and the Limerick, the Waves of Tory and the rlnce fada, Jaaale Tells stories. When the youngsters stop for breath Jamie tells his first story. It Is about Cuchulalu, the champion of the Red Branch Knights of Ulster and the most popular hero of Ireland. Cuchulaln, ao Jamie tells, was stolen away on Samhaln night or Hallowe'en, by Fand, the daugh ter of the king of the fairies, and taken to the land of eternal youth where, to quote Testes, "Nobody grows old and godly and grave, where nobody grow old and crafty and wise, where nobody grow old and bit-, ter of tongue." Fand kept Cuchulaln as ner mortal husband for a year, but on Uie next Halloween, when the gate of Fairy land were open, be came wandering back to earth, back to the hall where King Conor and the Red Branch Knight were feaatlna- They welcomed Cuchulaltv "ryatly, but ne waa unwilling to tay with them, re memberlng the Joy and beauty he had left, At the pleading- of 2mer.

When one of the officers was questioned regarding the difficulty relative to obtain ing proper clothing In the Orient, he said: I had heard a lul about the stories pub lished regarding the imitative ability of Japanese and Chinese tailors. They arc too Imitative. For example:! took around suits of 'cits.' which happeded to have a much needde patch, to a Jap tailor for a pattern, and when 'I got my new suit re turned from him I found that his imita tive sense had inspired him to cut a hole in the cloth of the new suit and sew in a patch. So, you see, that we have not found the Oriental tailors exactly satis factory." The oficers who wished to replenish theii wardrobe were worried only on one point. It was green hats. Nobody could blame the officers, became one reporter among these who went abroad wore a green hat and did not apologize for It. Without a smile, he declared that everybody on Broadway, excepting Oscar liainmeistein, was In on the emerald felt. An officer who listened to this, without showing signs of emotion, remarked that even though such might be the style, he would reserve the privilege for his next tour of duty on the Asiatic station.
