m. rish. Of History.

The boys and girls Of Gold Hill and
Virginia City arc In a state Of delightful
excitement over the coming Of Christmas
which will be ushered In at IL o'clock TO-
night. Various explanations have been
mado Of the custom Of giving presents at
Christmas time and the origin OF the fam
ciful santa Claus. But the most plausible
~-sccording TO that excellent authority
upon such points, the San Francisco
Groa;rI,-is contained In n OF the
books Of O'Shaughnessy, . phgnecian
historian contemporaneous win nero
dotus. At that remote period tho
Caliph Of Bagdad was accustomed 70
assemble his troops at this period OF the
rear for . grand fete. and to promote the
spirit Of hilarity generous rations OF
Santa Cruz rum were dispensed the
soldiers holding out their boots, a
sort Of leathern stocking. TO receive the
liquor, tin cups not then having
been introduced - an article OF military
convenience. After receiving their Santa
Cruz-or rather their Santa Claus, a.
the term became c~onfoundod through the
Arabic pronunciation-the soldiers became
exceedingly uproarous In their reveiry'
and the ensuing week CAM to DO desig-
mated a. tho .'holler days" Thus how
cruelty Ia one Of the sweetest fsncies OF
childhood dissipatsd by the chill touch OF
the ruthless historiani There may be
some, however. who will not believe this.
At any rate. we can al join in singing;
..Thriee welcome. old Christmss. We greet
thee again,
with laughter and Innocent mirth in thy
Let 10y MI the heart. and thihs en- the brow,
While we snatch q sweet kiss n-sth the mis- le-
toe .bough-
Ths mistletoe ooush,
The mistlstoe b ugh,
We will snstth sweet kiss meath the misile-
toe .boush."
The season Of friendly congratulation Is
al hand. This Is . land Of plenty. and no
one should deny himself the joys incident
TO the occasion. Iieportorially. tho NEWS
wishes all Its readers . Merry Christmas.

.. The Pilgrim.''

Hazlitt. tho famous tramp printer. who
has walked from Maine 10 Texas and frsm
Arizona to Dritish Columbia. was In Gold
Hill last Saturday. Ho Is known ~ "Tho
Pilgrim" wherever he goes. and never
asks for more than work enough to get his
food and necessary supply Of the ardent.
lie Is . man without q home and looks
with contempt upon the man who sleeps
regularly In q bed. Tho writer OF this
item has known "Tho Pilgrim for
twelve years. During that time he has
ever remained the same enigma that no Ia
to-day. The Winters and Summers that
have passed over his head have left scarce.
ly . trace upon his brow. Always quiet,
dignihed and courteous. he commands rc-
spectful treatment even from those who
despise his weaknesses. Some day this
nomadic life will end. and the tired
body will be at rest. However,
II may DO that his unqulct soul will
be condemned TO wander forever upon
the dcsolate banks Of the StyI for the
want Of the necessary obolus ~ pay the
ghostly ferryman. II Hazlitt's inclina-
tons remain after death rs they o are.
no will enter no protest against such an
arrangement. Indeed. he would probably
object to any other settlement Of this futu.
rity question. A wandsrer he Is, and .
wandsrer ho IL content 10 remain. May
he never want for Q good box in which TO
sleep. and may his supply Of beer money
never fail. Diogenes was esteemed . phil.
osopher because he slept in 4 tub. HAzlitt
has slept in moro tubs and barrels than
that other philosopher ever saw. Judge
70 between them.
