in widest dreams. A table stood on one
side filled with cake and bons-bonS.
Santa Claus after calling out the names
of the gifts appropriated to the children of
the Episcopal Sunday school, with his pro,
verbal generosity invited all the children
present to come tr AID receive a gift. We
understand nearly thrr" hundred toys were
distributed with an immense quantity of
cake.
We noticcl a BAG suspended from the
ceiling, its transparent material giving to
view bons bons, nuts, and divers other
things. There was q rush towards the spot
and a game something like the the, "Wap
pen Shave was inaugurated. 1t ended In
the most agile piercing the bag and letting
ont the confer is for a scramble among the
spectators.
We cannot sufficiently commend the lib
erality and kindly thoughtf'lness of the
Rector of the Episcopal church in thus pro-
viding pleasant diversions for the young
people Of this place. We are no sectarion,
and we must acknowledge to a feeling of
qualification when we see the Christian min
iStcrs of different denominations uniting in
one common purpose of good will and har-
mony. By such large, broad views, they
must necessarily strengthen each others
hands as well as the holy faith they support.
We think our readers will join with us in
the opening sentiment of this article, that
the season of peace and good will has been
fully %inaugurated in our midst.
NEWSPAPER ulRECToRY.-G. P. Rowell &
Co., the New York Advertising Agents, are
about issuing a complete American News
paper Directory. 1t is a compilation much
needed, since nothing of the kind having
any claims to completeness has ever been
published.
Messrs. Rowell & Co. have SCARED no
pains or expense to make the forthcoming
work complete. We understand the book
will be a handsome octave volume of about
800 pages, bound in dark cloth, and sold
for Five Dollars per copy.
As the publishers are Advertising Agents,
their issuing a work containing so much in
formation, usually jealousy guarded by
those in that business, shows that they are
confident of their ability to be of service to
advertisers, or they would not so readily
place in their hands the means of enabling
every one to communicate direct with pub
fishers if they desire.

How POOP BOYS REACH THE TOP ROUND.
There are 1919 names who pay an income
tax in this city. SiXty-seven persons pay tax
on incomes of 800, 900 or over. Most OF these
solid gentlemen are self made men, who have
come up from the lowest round of the ladder.
The man who leads the list, A. T. Stewart,
everybody knows is an Irish emigrant, who
commenced life with capital of less than
twenty five cts; indeed, with few exceptions,
most of the parties in the list were scarce as
well off as Mr.. Stewart Take Henry Keep !;
he boasts that he graduated from the poor
house of Jefferson county. Jay Gould drove a
herd of cattle from Delhi, Delaware county,
when lad for fifty cents day, in order to get
money enough to reach the Hudson river.
David Groespeck, over thirty years ago, used
to mend old shoes for his brother, who was a
respectable shoemaker in Albany. We all
know the history of James Gordon Bennett
and Robert Bonner, poor boys full of talent and
industry. Rufus Hatch, when a youngster,
had ambition to hold the reins of peddler'
wagon. E. e. Morgan commenced life with a
quart measure of mOlasses 1t is scarce dOz
en- years since Henry Clews was an errand boy
in one of the banking houses down town. The
brothers Seligman started out in life with 1
peddler's pack. David Downs, in his younger
days, retaied pork by the half pound and mo
lasses by the gill H. T. Helmbold was frs

ASAD ROMANCE ENDED.-For many months
past, a poor woman, meanly clad, may have
been noticed sitting at the corner of Plum and
Longworth streets, keeping a lonely vigil,
and waiting for the coming of one who never
came. Her sad history is told in few words.
Her husband died in the army. She would
never believe that he was dead, and was firm
in the faith that he would again return to her,
Constant brooding begat arrangement. An
imposter told her that if she would take her
stand at one of the street corners every day her
absent lord would soon come back to her. She
did so, and every morning the patient watcher
was found at her post, waiting wearily, despite
wind and weather, and, regardless of the jeers
or smiles of passers-by, she peered anxiouSly
into every face, or gazed longingly toward the
river, in search Of the one so dear to her, but
whose features shall never more gladden. hel
eyes. Few that saw the wan and weary watch
er failed to bestow a glance of pity, and man!
were the inquiries as to her sad history. Bu
the faithful sentinel has lett her accustomed
stand, and her vigils are ended The officer
came ye: terday and sent the pitiable creatur
to the Longview Asylum, where, perhaps, sh'
will await her unreturning husband until cale'
upon to join him beyond the dark river.-BW

PETTIcoATs AT THE BAR.-The other day
Mrs Arabelia Mansfield, young lady of 24,
was admitted to practice in the courts of Iowa.
We were heartily glad Of it, for we dare say
there are many functions of an attorney for
which Mrs. Mansfield is admirably qualified.
There is no reason in the world why the great
bulk of what is known as office work in the
legal profession should not he performed by
women, and OF course whatever enlarges wo-
man S opportunities of earning an honest living,
without detracting from her natural position
in society, must be looked upon as benefit to
the community at large. Mrs. Mansfield :
husband was admitted to practice at the same
time and we presume the pair might MAKE q
very efficient firm under the title of " Mansfield
and Husband" or Mansfield and Wife, ac
cording to circumstances We do not recon-
mend them to open separate offices, because
they might happen to be engaged on opposite
sides of the same cause, and one of the two
might have no better ground to go upon thai
abuse of the opposite counsel-which woulC
lead to unpleasant domestic consequences. Blu
if Mrs Mansfield will mind the office while Mr.
NJ. attends to the courts, perhaps no two Othe
lawyers in Iowa may be able to compete witt
them.-N. Y. Tribune.

1t almost takes away ones breath to read Of
a churchman rising in Protestant Episcopal
Conference, and demanding that =" the misera-
BILE dogma of Apostolic Succession" shall be
expurgated from the Book of Common Prayer.
This is what DIR. Bowen OF Ohio did in the
Conference at Chicago on Thursday week. We
do not exactly understand whether the Confer
ence went with the Doctor or not; but it Ger
tainly did pass resolution in favor of remov
ing from the Prayer Book "all words or
phrases seeming to teach that the Christian
ministry is priesthood" The Church ha
now a Committee of Revision, which is decar
ed to be ga body in perpetuity." This wOulC
seem to go pretty far toward the existence of
sect within church which abhors sectarian
ism; and if we may judge by the past, schisn
seems not improbable.

deciphtr one word Of it in thirty four years,
except the writer and the four printers already
