Holidays in Danish Island*.
The natives of the Danish Islands
(West Indies) apparently celebrate
the national holidays of all countries
with complete Impartiality—the Fourth
of July in honor of the country that
wouldn't adopt them; the fourteenth
of July because It is celebrated In Mar-
tinique, and it would never do to let
the French negroes get uhead of them ;
the birthday of the king of Denmark,
because the islands belong to him;
the birthday of the king of England,
because the islands once belonged to
him; the birthday of the German em-
Ijeror In honor of the Hamburg-Ameri-
can line, nnd the birthdays of all the
'oyal families, I presume, as well as
many local and Impromptu holidays of
their own. They also are very scrupu-
lous about observing the Sabbath, at
Iwast in its negative aspect.
