CHRISTMAS 1888.

In the kind providence of God
we have lived to see another Ami
versary Of the birth of the Savior.
and our hearts are filed with graft
tude. This Anniversary Of the
greatest event in the christian
world has come down through the
centuries which are folded away in
times archives, and it comes to us
now with its nineteen thousand
years Of richness, and beauty, and
holiness. What heart but feels the
impress Of its annual coming.
Since childhood we have been
taught to hail it with joy, because
on that momentous day, so far back
in the past, a Savior was born, q
prince of peace was given to the
world. It is a sweet story-this
day a Savior is born. In lowly
manger, wrapped in swaddling
clothes-he is found by the wise
men Of the East, who are directed
thither by the cloudy pillar by day,
and the pillar Of fire by night. We
think that the occasion far from be-
ing less thought of and less appre-
eiated, is only more reverenced and
observed. Another christmas day
has come, it has come. to all, to
young and old, white and black,
and tue day will be celebrated with
becoming joys every board will be
provided with its christmas dinner,
and cheer viii abound ; hearts will
be glad and be merry, Absent re-
lations will return, and broken
families will be reunited. Some
however willnever return, they have
died and gone from the scene Of
life---let US think of them with affec-
tionate regard. We would not, how
ever, mar the happy occasion with
sad and gloomy thoughts, but think
of the pleasure, the JOY that is
ours. Reader, our best wishes are
given you;: ray this christmas be
marked by no sadness, no care,
but each one Of you enjoy it without
stint. May JOY be unconfned. A
happy christmas to each and all,
to young and old, and may the lit
tie ones stockings be filed to over
flowing with good things and sweet
things.

Indian Trubles.

The AIissoulian furnishes us with the
following account of recent depradations
committed by gang of thieving wards
of the government: On Sunday three
Indians and boy went to the town of
Martina, of which place the population is
mostly Chinese. After loating short
time they started back, and robbed the
first Chinaman they met, Wah Lee, of an
ounce of gold dust and SIS in currency.
They then started down the creek and
choked and held up Win Sue for So so,
after which they met All Wah and re-
lieved him of $1S475. These despera-
does in the meantime robbed other China
men of various amounts, but, being in
debt, the celestials would not own up to
being robbed, and the amounts are not
known. The robbers were apparently
not yet satisfied and were bent on destruc-
ton of life, and crossed the creek to a
cabin in which were four Cinnamon.
They attempted to. carry away red
blanket from the place, but Sirg Ok,
known as 1.-THE Doctor" objected to los
ing the garment and held ON to it, where
upon one of the Indians shot him In the
head. The poor fellow died in an hour
or two in an clubhouse. where he had been
placed by his superstitious comrades.
The murderers next went to their camp
about nine miles below the town, where
there were several lodges and five or six
squaws and children. They got away
with the plunder which amounted to he
tween $3.50 and $500. About 10 or II
o'clock on Monday, as Mr.. Dickson and
Jimmy Smith, with SIX Cinnamon were
coming down the road, they were over
taken by the Indian party, and one OF
them remarked: ssMika hiyu pappoosep
which was a good-natured inference in
Chinook that Mr.. Dickson had plenty Of
children; and as the driver Of the outfit
had about 100 ounces Of gold which he
was bringing to Missoula, he was not
anxious for a battle. One of the party
who had his face bedaubed with paint
was supposed to be Koonsa, who killed
Frank Marengo on the Jocko last year.
Later Three Indians and . boy
were arrested in town yesterday. one o
whom was the notorious Koonsa. One Of
tic Cinnamon who vas present 1t the
