Miss Dolly was seated beneath pine tree
BY the side of table spread out for her tea
A workbox, wel-fled, in the center laid
And on 1t rug for which Annie had prayed.
A soldier in uniform stood by sled,
With bright shining runner, and all painted redn
There were balls dogs and horses, books pleasing to see
And BIRDS OF altoors were perched in the tree;
While Santa CLAUS, laughing, stood up in the top,
AS if getting ready more presents to drop
And as the fond father the picture surveyed,
He thought for his touble he had amply been paid
And he said to hmset, as he brushed oft tear,
Pm happier tonight ttan rve been for IA year.

Aud tripped down the stairs retirelfor the nj ght
AS soon AS the beams of the bright morning sun
Pat the darkness to fight, and the stars by one
-Four little blue eyes out of sleep opened wide,
And at the same moment the presents esped.
Then out of their beds they sprang with bound.
And the very gifts prayed tor all OF them f6nud.
They laughed and they cri,d in their innocent glec
And shouted for "papa7 to come quick and see
What presents old Santa Caus brought in the night
Dust the things that they vaned and left before light
I" And now" added Annie, ina Voice soft and low,
You'll believe there's Santa Claus papa know !"
While dear little Willie climbed up on his knee
Determined no secret Between them should be
And told, in soft whispers, how Annie had said,
That their dear blessed mmma, long ago dead,
Used to knee down and pray by the side of her chair
Aud that God up in heaven had answered her prayer

Annie and Willie's PRAYER.

Twas the eve before Christmas Good night" had been ad
And Annie and Willie had crept into bed.
There tears their pillows and tears in their eyes,
And each little bosom was heavy with sigls-
For to night their fathers command had been given
That they should retire precisely seven
Instead of eight; for they troubled him
With questions nnheard- of than before;
He had told them he thought this deluson "A sin
NJ such being Santa Claus had been,
And he hoped, after this, he should more hear
How he scrambled down chmneys with presents year,
And this was the little heads
So restlessly tossed on their soft, downy beds.

National Associated Press to the Star.
BALTIMORE, MD, April 16.-Denwood B.
Kinds and Isaac D. James had shooting
ARRAY this afternoon in the western section
of the city, which ended in the death Of
James and the wounding of Kinds and a
younger brother, who was present and
took part in the affray. Kinds and his
brother were arrested, but their wounds
are not serious.
The shooting grew out OF an affair in
yolving the honor and subsequently the
death OF daughter of James, who died in
child-bed Oh the 18th of last month.
On the 23d of last December William NJ
James, brother OF Miss James, called on
Denwood B. Kinds at his place Of business,
and accused him with the seduction of his
sister.
Both drew their pistols and fourteen
shots were fired, both men being shot; but
neither Of them seriously. Kinds left the
city and did not return until after the

result was the death Of James who was
shot through the head, and the slight
Wounding of Kinds.

THE SUNDAY QUESTION.
Proposition to Enforce the Old and
Strict Jersey Laws.
National Associated Press to the star.

JERSEY CrTY, N. j., April 16-The Liquor
and Lager Association of Newark proposes
to oppose the efforts OF the Law and Order
Association in rather a novel and unex-
pectcd manner. The Law and Order folks
want the Sunday Law enforced so far as the
sale of liquor and the giving of theatrical
or other performances are concerned.
The liquor and lager people are now con-
sidering the propriety of and taking steps
to have the law fully enforced. If this
would be done, not only the traffic in liquor
and lager would be prevented, but business
OF every kind would have to be suspended
on Sunday. No horse cars steam cars or
steamboats, can be run; no newspapers,
cigars, ice cream, candy, soda water, oysters
or refreshments can be sold; 10 travelling
can be done in carriages or on horseback for
pleasure and no walking except to aid
from church if the laws be made operative.
Such is the old New Jersey State law, which
has never been repealed, and those engaged
in the liquor traffic complain bitterly that
they alone of all people who disregard its
enactments are held UP to public odium
and marked out for punishment
