JOHN REFS.
Rumored Finding Of His Body
A Pittsburgh Account.

Late last night, report was tels-
phoned from Bellaire TO the kroisTER
announcing that the body OF John Reis
had been found in the river. Reporters
were detailed from the main and branch
offices OF the REoisrER, to work the
matter up. The story was that the body
had been found near Benson's Ferry,
the head horribly mutilated and the
corpse bearing the evidences oil foul
play. Such tale was enough TO enthuse
any reporter, and our ENJOYS secured
without ceasing. The rnmor had circu-
lated like wildfre and the banks OF the
river Mt either side, ut Benson's
Ferry, were crowded with peo-
pie. Very soon the reports began
TO conflict. One man heard il was near
Benwood the body was found; another
said it was near the Ohio shore at the
Jerry, and third ayerred II had strand
cd at the head off Bogg's Island. ku-
mors were much more plentiful than
corpses, and the strictest search failed
to discover anybody who had seen the
body OF John Refs. 1t was said that
certain mill man had seen Il, but he was
found in Bishops saloon and stated that
he had only heard OF it. A well known
South Wheeling physician told the re-
porter that the condition OF the water
was such that some days must elapse
before the body would come TO the sur.
face. The cool water would
tend to preserve it and prevent decom-
position and the formation OF those
gases which distend corpses and cause
them to float. 4 river man said II was
folly to expect to find the body near
the spot the drowning occurred, and
that he had no doubt it was now as Tar
down as Moundsville.
The Pittsburgh Leader says:
1t is asserted now by persons who
knew him that John Refs, the
drowned man, is a Pittsburgher, and
formerly lived with his father, Henry
Refs, on Copper-works hill, at Soho.
The John Refs who is referred to by
the persons who know him in this city
was puddler, and worked at More
heads mills on Second avenue at Soho,
but left here about three years ago with
several others to 90 to work at Wheel
ing; coming back about year ago on
visit, and he is OF the same name as the
man who was drowned; his father has
become alarmed about him, and came
into town this morning to telegraph to
Wheeling for information. He is not
certain that it is his son who was
drowned, hut fears that it
may be him. Up 10 this writing
nothing definite has been learned.
Ii the man drowned at Wheeling is
the John Refs who lived here his death
seems like the fultllment of doom that
was intended for the whole family, as
his wife and child were drowned some
six years ago while out skifi-riding at
Bellcvernon, on the Monongahe,a river.
The two referred 10 above who were
drowned were out in a skill with sever
al others, aud Mrs. Refs being very
large woman was seated ina chair which
had been placed in the skitf, holding the
child upon her knee, when the waves OF
passing steamboat rocked the skill 80
violently that the child was thrown out,
and, in attempting to save it, the moth
or also fell into the river and both were
drowned before they could be rescued.

VIZ notice but few new designs on
Christmas slippers. They are still made
on lasts nodded after an Erie canalboat
which makes it very convenient for the
wearer to turn around without lifting his
feet from the floor. The little nails so
much appreciated by geatlemen with ten
der feet, show no deterioration in quanti-
ty orpoint The worsted contortions are
of the old cxasperating types. You will
perceive the point Of these rcmarks-the
points of the nails, at all events-when
You begin your annual msrtyrdom this
Christmas morning.

"Ohl my child! l am nearly frightened
to deathl" sobbed the poor woman.
''Motherl" cried Nina. sob, mother!

for we never needed him SO much. But
it was not Germany, and I did not find
him; but-oh, mother-I found grand

''Motherl Fatherl' cried the poor
woman; and the next instant they rushed
in and had her in their arms.
So Nina had q merry Christmas after

got well, and that Santa Claus did not
forget her.

sCbristmas Is comingp the children cry,
Dar little children, who live al home,
And do not guess what II Is 10 roam
From morn till night, with stOekingless feet
Up and down, through the Ice and Sleet.
"Christmas Is c0mlngl" thinks little Tim,
But wnat can the Christmas do for him4
Hia home u cellar his daily bread
The crumbs that remain when tho rich arc fed
No mother N klSs him when day Is gone;
NOplaCe 10 be glad In under the sun.
That wonderful fellow, old Santa Claus
Who never Is lido u moment, because
He Is kept 81 busy wiihpiling the toys
Into the Stockings Of girls and boys,
No wond, r he sometimes fotgois, you know,
Into tie homes Of the poor ;0go!
But, d,Rr little children, you understand
That tue rich and poor all over the land
Have ono dear Father who watches you,
And grioyrs or smiles at the things you do,
And scme Of bis Children are POOR and sad,
And sone arc always merry and glad. ~
Christmas will bling 10 you many Joys
Food aud plenty, froliC aud toys;
Christmas 10 some will bring nothing at oil,
In place Of laughter the tears will fall,
Poor little Thu 70 your door may come
Your blessings are many; spare him some.
The Christmas bells will sweetly ring
The song that the angels love 10 sing,
The song that came with the Sayiour's birth
Peace, good will, and love on earthlh
Dear little children, mig. lpny,
Sweet bells In some lonely heart to-day.

A Tisht.Fisted Mans Christmas.

Oh but he was tight-fsted hand at
the arindstone. Scrooge! squeezing,
wrencni2g, grtsping, clutching, coyet-
GUS old sinner The cold within him
froze in his old features, nipped his
pointed nose, shriyeled his cheek made
his eyes red, his lips blue, and spoke out
shrewdly in his grating voice. He car.
ried his low temperature always about
with him; he iced his Office in dog days /;
and didn't thaw it out one degree at
Christmas.
Once upon time, old scrooge sat
busy in his contingencies. He could
hear tho people in the court outside go
wheeling up and down, stamping their
feet upon the pavement stones to warm
them. The fog came pouring in at
every chink and keyhole, and was 80
dense without that the houses opposite
were mere phantoms.
"a merry Christmas, uncle God
save you !" cried cheerful voice.
