Through all the gladneSS thrills ten

Christmas carols are sung from door TO

about and sing:
God rest Won all. good gentlemen.
Let nothing you dismay;
For Jesus Christ our saviour
Was born on Christmas Day.
The song becomes u part Of the morn

while the pretty carols are not a feature
Of the American Christmas, the spirit
of them is deeply and universally felt.

Personal Observation Of the Ell
feet of Office. Hunting and Its

bdHSeEs.
From the New York Evening Post,
Under the spoils or patronage system
of the civil service people are permitted
and encouraged to believe, first, that
they can 90 to Washington and obtain
an office as a mere matter OF favor, aud
second, that it depends upon the mere
pleasure OF the President or a Cabinet
Minister to give it to them. A person
comes to Washington with that belief.
He has a paper setting forth his merits
and bearing the signatures OF some
prominent men. He presents that
paper to tire President or the head OF
department and receives the reply that
these dignitaries are unable to DO Tor
him whet he wants. ""hy," he says,
sit costs you nothing bat mere stroke
OF the pen to give me such place as l
ask for" Then he continues to hang
around the White House and the de-
psrtments, still hoping. Gradually his
means are exhausted, perhaps his family
suffering and his mind emblttered.
"You can give me the place" he says to
the President or Secretary, I'll you only
will. Ii you do not give it to me you
show that your will is not good towards
me-" We have heard this sort OF
speech scores of times. The applicant
thus remaining unprovided Tor frequent
" considers the dispenser OF appoint
ments his personal enemy, and then II
he is viciously disposed, he begins to
threaten, with more or less evil intent.

land. Her remarkable successes in the
speculative world, her sudden advent
into notoriety, the fact that She was
woman and dealt in stocks, many OF her
fortunate predictions which have been
fulfilled, have combined to render her
an object OF public interest and to gain
for her the title of "The Witch OF Wall
Street" When it was known that she
would arrive the Parker House from
New York, on Sunday morning, a rep.
re sentative of this paper was dispatched
to interview her. And so it happened
that in the hotel parlor the writer
found himself face to face with q

her forehead clustered her wavy hair.
which was tinged here and there with
gray, and was simply parted in the mid
die without any attempt at adornment.
She was richly, but not at all sho~lly,
dressed.
Upon be n asked "a to the general
accuracy Of her financial predictions,
she replied that as lar as stocks are con
cerned she had been quite successful,
and )ntinued:

may, OF course, be slight fluctuations in
the meantime, but say it will sell of

but it was so near sixty it would not
make any difference. 1t was fabulous

count the depreciation it had suffered
before nv going to st Louis. never
lost money in Wall street but once, aud
then it was not much.
"How did it happen"
"We.l, ,ho st,ry Of my loss is rather
peculiar. 1t was on the morning that
the President was shot. ! went to the
Office and gave ny order to sell my
stocks. / had a strange feeling that
there was no need to hurry about it and
would not push the sales; and while We
were taking we read on the tape that
the President had been shot. Before
we sold them they ran down five per
