CHRISTMAS AT CH1LDREN's HOME
Among the many happy features Of holt
day entertainments in our city was the
jubilee Of the children at the Home last
evening. Quite concourse of friends
gazed with interest upon the variety Of
countenances in the Home circle. After
song Of greeting by the children, prayer
was offered by Rev. Mr.. Kelly, Of Lima,
Ohio, after which some Of the children
favored those present with Rotations.
Actual sight Is all that can appreciate the
joyous appearance of the almost unnst'
ural faces Of the children as Kris Kingle,
with his retinue Of bells, his beard OIL
snowy white, his robe OF red and his sack
oftoys, preceded by the famous tale bear.
er, Mr.. James Jepson, and accompanied
by his renowned Bitten, stood before the
children as the immortal donor Of toys,
candies, &c.
Every inmate Of the Homo was remem.
bered. Mr.. s. s. Bloch, through his gen.
erosity, presented the toys; Mrs. g. W.
Franzheim, numerous boxes Of candies;
St. Johns Episcopal Church, a beautiful
cross and about fifty presents; Beech
Glen, wagon filled with substantials,
turkeys, flour, &c.
We arc glad to note as the years ebb
away this glorious institution making
such rapid progress, as the result Of the
good judgment and perseverance Of the
directors, lady managers and patrons.

CHRISTMAS AT FULToN.-0n Christ
mas Eve the scholars Of the Sabbath

ed at the school house in that town and
enjoyed an elegant treat. The school
room was tastefully decorated with ever
greens and flowers. In one end stood an
immense Christmas tree, with two stars
trimmed with evergreen each five feet in
diameter on either side. On one OF these
stars was the motto, "God Bless Our
School," and on :he other "Peace on
Earth, Good Win to Men" The tree
was handsomely trimmed with fancy Or
naments, candies, &c. One hundred and
thirty.two children were present, and
each one received fine piece OF glass
ware and about pound OF candy. I'm.
der the efficient management OF Messrs.
Henry J. Spence, Superintendent Of the
Sabbath School, aud George W. Rhodes,
Principal Of the public school, perfect or.
der prevailed. The house was crowded,
and over one hundred persons were COM
PEELED to stand outside. The sum Of
800 25 was raised by subscription for the
expenses Of the occasion among their
own citizens; and when we remember the
size OF the place, it Is q very gratifying
evidence Of the liberality Of the people.

Mime. Lucca and the Weber Piano.
From the New York World
NEW YORK, November 90 1879

NhW 4ohhj NofeuDet ~, 1915.
Dear Mr. Weber-As I leave New York
tomorrow, let me- kindly thank you ior
the upright piano which l used all sum.
mer in Kingston, and before that In the
city since my arrival In America. Your
upright pianos are extraordinary instru-
ments. They have an astonishing iulness
and wealth OF tone, which adapts them
excellently well to the voice. The action
l find charming, and this one surprised
me by hardly ever needing the tuner.
Your instruments fully deserve the great
success which they have obtained.
PAULINE LUCIA.
One by one all the worlds great artists
come over to Weber, because he makes
tie best and most artistic Piano. Within a
year Mr.. Weber has received unsolicited
encomiums from Strauss, the Waltz King,
Teresa Careno, s. B. Mills, Wehli, Chris.
tine Nilsson, Pauline Lucca, and others,
all Of whom were ardent adherents OF the
Steinways, excepting Strauss. Added to
this, Weber's sales almost doubled last
year, and 80 where you will in the East,
the Weber Piano Is the iavorite. The
agent in this city, Mr.. sheib, offers special
inducements to Piano buyers on the
Weber Piano in order to introduce them
more extensively, and all who want the
best Piano can get 1t at sheib's cheaper
than elsewhere. 4ii 'mnlG!Fl
