Christmas Eve.

Christmas Eve.
Several Of the Sunday schools Of this
place had special exercises last Thurs
day evening, and made tho occasion
joyous.
AT n. =. CHURCH.
Two very large apple trees. given
by Mr.. Il. X. Woodruff, the Superin-
tendsnt, from his orchard, were placed
In position on either side of the pulpit,
laden with apples and illuminated
with tapers. After the welcoming I'D.
dress, by the superintendent, and re-
sponse by the Pastor, Rev. Warning,
eight young ladies appeared, each
bearing q block Of wood, symbolizing
the eight graces mentioned In 2 Peter,
L., 5-7--" Add to your faith virtue,
and to virtue knowledge, and to
knowledge temperance, and to tenn
perance patience, and to patience,
goidliness, and to godliness
brotherly kindness, and to brotherly
kindness charity. These blocks
were SUCCESSFULLY placed In n1onu-
ment with faith at the foundation and
charity at tho summit, each Of the
young ladies quoting an appropriate
text ~ she placed her block. Then
the eight recited In concert the eighth
vsrsa: For II these things be In you
and abound. they make you, that We
shall neither be barren nor unfrnitful
In the knowledge Of cur Lord Jesus
Christ" Each acted, her part well,
and the effect was good.
Willie Randolph then recited Q
brief Grafton and poem, and was heart
lily applnuded.
Near 300 packages Of fruits, cakes,
nuts and oonfectioneries were distrib-
uted, and the hearts Of the children
were all made glad.
PRESBYTERIAN.
The church was very handsomely
festooned with evergreens, and filled
almost to.crowding by throng Of old
and young who came to enjoy the fes-
tival and sociable. They were not
disappointed. They found joyous fes-
tivity and happy sociability under
very favorable circumstances, sur
rounded with exceedingly tasteful and
suggestive Christmas decoration.
The tree, occupying the center In
front Of the desk, was large and sym
metrical evergreen, and was laden
with good things for the members OF
the Sunday-school. 1t was illumina-
ted with sixty wax tapers and numer-
Gus sparkling spangles, giving 1t an
appearance bright as thoughts of
Christmas, rich and generous as Santa
Claus. Fruits, confectionery, nuts
and cakes were supplied In lavish
abundance to all in the house, and af-
ter two hours of feasting, music and
social converse, the throng departed
with reluctance, having spent q merry
Christmas Eve In way they will
ever rejoice to recall.
LUTHERAN CHURCH.
The house was crowded and many
were compelled to leave for lack Of
room for sitting or standing. Opened
with excellent singing by the school.
Brief addresses were delivered by the
superintendent, J. g. Young, and
pastor, Rev. J. Creigler. The tree
presented q beautiful appearance,
decked with scores Of lighted tapers,
and fruited with oyer three hundred
presents. The children were over
joyed and enthusiastic as their names
were called. and they received their
gifts. Fruits, cakes, candies, etc, were
distributed In bountiful supply and
all went way happy, feeling that they
had Just attended one Of the most sue
cessful Christmas festivals given in
that church.

EXPLOSIONS "safety oil /" lamp
explosion occurred one evening last
week In the house of J. II. Chrismsn,
six miles east of town. The lamp was
blown into atoms and the blazing oil
thrown about the room promiscuous-
iy. BY prompt aud judicious action
Mrs. G. saved herself and tie house
from burning.
Mr.. Converse, Of Clay township,
tells US of an adventure Of a similar
nature In his house last week, with a
coal oil lamp. Fire ran down the
tube and ignited the oil or the gas be-
low. For q time it found sufficient
vent through the tube, and did not
burst, but sent threatening flame TO
the ceiling. Mr.. C. Picked up the
lamp and tossed II out OF the door into
the snow. Then 1t exploded, throw
Ing the flaming oil and glass about In
frightful manner. He thinks the
house could not have been saved Ii the
lamp had exploded before being
thrown out.
People do not properly realize the
danger they incur In using any Of the
explosive oils for Illuminating purpos-
es, and the necessity OF keeping their
aamps always properly trimmed
