The clock strikes twelve, and a
| gray-haired old man, leaning upon a
staff, passes out into the dark cold
night, never to return. Who can tell
how many tender regrets, how many
mournful memories linger around
him. As he passes out to take bis
place among his predecessors, the
new born child of Time comes bound
ing in, and with merry smile and
ringing laugh, scatters broadcast his
merry greetings aAtqhesdaWhing of
a new year many good resolutions
will be formed, few to be Eept, more
to be brokeni many who greet the
newcomer tonight So jby@lly,J amid
scenes Of mirth aud revelry, will, ere
. he takes his departure, have passed

the changes which will have taken
place in every home, some for the

\ Let us shnpe,, that the, record Of the

many scenes OF horror and of crime

there be no record of Spanish butch
