THE CHINESE CHRISTMAS.

WASHINGTON, December 25.-"Ylas, dis

samee as Mclean Chlismas," said one Of
the most prosperous Chinese laundrymen.
OF TINS city 10 the fEGIsrER correspondent
this evening after celebrating the Chinese
Christmas with great enthusiasm.
"How do you celebrate the occasion?'
"Samee like Mclean man-eat, dlink and
gilt dunk"
..The pagan then, after some persuasion,
led the way to a downtown laundry, where
was found motley gathering of Celestials
who were in the midst of their reiigio
ceremony. One who appeared to be the
director, had taken an elevated position on
an ironing table and was boboing his head
up and down and chanting weird song.
This was Chang Flu, the orator of the day.
At the conclusion of the chant, the China
men, who stood around in semi circle,
raised their hands imploringly, at the
same time casting their eyes upwards and
repeating their prayers, OF which a phone
tic report produces the following jarg0n:
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. wah
hy-pOLE-. Inc CeTtuiOuS 10 huOmA aS
"worshipping heaven.
When the prayer had ceased and az had
psrtaken of rice, Chang Flu descended
from his improrised platform and led the
way to an inner room. Here a sumptuous
banquet was spread. consisting OF all the
Chinese deliclcies and some of the Ameri
can luxuries. A noticeable feature OF the
feast was three suspicious looking bottles
labelled in large gold letters "Gin." The
banquet room was gsyly decorated for the
occasion. The principal object was a cab
net representing the armament. 1t was q
skeleton frame covered with sky-blue tissue
paper, the latter being perforated. Through
these pertoratiops the light Of several can
dies besmed forth, making the whole scene
resemble that OF the sky on starry night.
On top OF the cabinet were several candles.
which threw dim, yellow light over the
room.
At the conclusion of the banquet the
worshippers knelt before the cabinet and
ofieried a series OF prayers. Then the
whole party in single file ascended to the
roof and spent half hour in concludiny :
their days devotions.
At the Chinese Legation the day was
celebrated by the ambassador and attaches
in grand fashion. The ceremony consist
ed in worshipping heaven, and was much
more digniiied proceeding than that before
described. A devout member OF the l. sga.
tion acted as high priest and conducted the
devotional exercises.

NEw YORK, December 25.-A dispatch to

The Sheriff Of oakland county, Michigan,
Hiram S Lewis, has sent n communication
TO the authorities here asking for power to
arrest Josiah Cornelius for the murder OF

he has since resided, and was recently

Cumstarces OF the murder are as follows;
Cornelius and Ayres, who were then about
20 years Of sge. resided at Mount Holly
srd were rival suitOrs for the hand OF .

night in the latter part OF December the
rivals met on Washington street bridge

assisted by Cornelius. The next day
AyTes died and warrant was nj

CoLUMEUs,.O., December 25.-The Cover
nor was in a good humor to day for the
usual Christmas pardons, aud took up a
lot of them, issuing psrdons to the follow
ing:
James NJ Stewart sent up from Athens
county in January, 1889, for three yesrS,
for perjury. The crime was committed
while Stewart was intoxicated, and the
pardon asked for by the prosecution aud
many citizens.
Alonzo Stevenson, sent up from Muskin
gum county, August, 1oS2, for five years,
for procuring an abortion, in regard to
which later developments have shown
grave doubts.
James McCrum, sent up from Pickaway
county, December, 1880, for l3 years for
manslaughter. Strong papers were on file
asking for the pardon.
Levi Schaffer, sent up from Darke
county, January, 1882 for life, for murder
in the first degree. Schaffer is now seventy
two years old, is a pensioned soldier, and a
great sufferer from his wounds. The sen.
fencing Judge says there is grave DOUBT as
to Schaffer's guilt, and unites with many
others in asking for the pardon.
Even with this rather liberal exercise OF
executive clemency there were a hundred
or more disappointed ones. Mothers,
wives and sisters went away with sobs and
sighs. The Governor will probably close
his work on the pardon bureau with the
issue of couple of certificates OF iiI0'ty u"

Republicans On Eiddlcberger, who refused
to 90 into the Republican caucus, they now
look with more favor. Mahoncs submis-

with his own people. lie is accused OF
want of spirit and lack OF sagacity, if not

being said and harder still are only for the
moment suppressed. Recently Malone, in
his forlornness, said that he would be will

Blaine, to which the Maine statesman is
said to have replied that he was quite in.
different whether Malone supported him
or not; he was paying little attention now
10 those who had been admitted at the side
Goor and given seats on the back row. One
thing, however, he would say, the Virginia
Senators should keep silence and behave as
became wanderers who had merciiully been
given shelter.
