DIR. N. P. VALERIUs & Co.
Since their rev importation OF
Clydesdales, Dr.. n P. Valerius & Co., OF
this city, have made the following sales:
To Albert G Blatz, Milwaukee, the fa-
nous Clydesdale mare, Nancy Lee, 1900
pounds; John Schmidt, Tess Corners. a
Clydesdale mare, 1900 pounds; George
Kline, Fort Atkinson, Clydesdale stallion
and Shetland pony, 400 pounds; and
the Clydesdale stallion, Captain Curtis,
was sold to Messrs Mertens, Heiuen &
Schweiderhan, of Jordan, Minnesota
Captain Curtis is one of the best speci
mems or CIydeSdaleS ever imported INTO
this country and very superior stock
horse, which is proven by the fact of one
of his colts being shown at the last Dunn
bartonshire show, in Scotland and gain
ed first prize. The purchasers of this
fine bred Clydesdale exercised excellent
judgment in their selection. He has a
rich color and weighs 1900 pounds, and
only rising, four years old. Captain
Curtis was sired by Blue Ribbon, and he
out of Darnley, who is sire of the best
breeding horses Of this class at the present
day. It will be surprising if G. G. is not
heard from in the future, both AS a stock
horse and in the ring.

Hymn encOt.

A most pleasant and interesting
event in society circles here was the
marriage this morning of Max. III.
Gaebler and Miss Bertha Rlumenfeld,
youngest daughter of David Blumen-
field, editor of the Weltburger, the
nuptial knot being tied by Rev. j. M.
Campbell, of the Congregational
church, at the home of the brides
parents in the Sixth ward, in the pres
ence OF a few friends and the immedi-
ate relatives Of the contracting par
ties. The bridal pair were made the
happy recipients Of many elegant and
costly gifts, ali bearing testimony to
the high esteem they are held in by q
legion of friends. The groom, SO long
and favorably known in this commu-
nifty, certainly deserves the prize he
has obtained for a life partner, and
the bride is none the less to be con
graduated over the wise choice she
has made. May earth's richest
blessings always accompany them in
their Journey through life is the pray
er of all their friends. Mr.. and Mrs.
Gaebler leave this afternoon on a
short bridal trip to Chicago after
which they will return here and settle
down to enjoy married life.

WATERFOWL. March 20. 1885,

EDITOR REPUBLICAN:-The majority
of those who attended Turner Hall on
the 18th of March do not acquiesce in the
opinion of TIE one sided writer who en-
deavored to render justice TO the members
of St. Patrick's Literary society in the
columns of the Gazette of last week.
They believe them worthy of greater
commentator than he was willing to
bestow. 1t seems by the general bearing
of his article that borrowed oratory and
acquired gestures are deserving of infin-
itely greater praise than sterling merit as
evinced by those who participated in the
drama.

The True Meaning of sChristmas.

Christmas is the greatest day in the year.
Is there feeling that there is getting to
be too much of it? not too much of it in
the way of kindliness and brotherly love,
but in the way of worry and expense. The
weeks before it are full of feyerish excite
ment, of nervous expectation, of perplexi-
ty; the days following it, of exhaustion.
Childhood is on tiptoe in two hemispheres,
and childhood has become so conscious of
it's deserts that it is next to impossible to
surprise it, except by too small gifts. The
day has to carry tremendous load. The
obesity that might be distributed in health
full streams throughout the year is poured
out in it in prodigal waste by some, who
| seem glad to relieve themselves of oblIga-
tion by single act. In point of cost it is
equal to half dozen weddings. Year by
year the expense of gifts increases. Is this
the dictate Of fashion, Or owing to the
growth of kindly feeling? Is it a sponta-
neous response to the spirit of the day, or
do any PEOPLE make gifts because they are
expected to, and because everybody else
does, and because there has grown up of
late years a rivalry in this matter? Since
the Puritan distrust of this great feast-day
abated, the American people, who are the
most generous people in the world, have
taken up Christmas with the same enthu-
siasm that lately almost buried funerals un-
der weight of floral tributes. We readily
incline to excess, to an excess that destroys
the object we seek. Even for our pleas
ures and amusements we work harder than
any other people, and probably get less rest
and entertainment. At the rate we are

Three Angels on the First Christmas Morn
ing.

When God created man He commanded
His angels to visit him an earth and guide
him In his ways, SO that he might have a
foretaste of the bliss of the life to come.
But man sought after sensual joys in the
place of those in heaven, and growing
greedy of worldly fruits, began to quarrel
with his nelghbors for the possession of
them; and the guardian angels wept among
themselves. Put when the strong oppress-
ed the weak and took from them by force
the product of their toll, Justice roIe up
sorrowing, and, leaving earth, flew back to
heaven. And when the weak overcap1e the
strong with treachery and deceit, and got
from them by cunning what they fsar ed to
| take by force, Truth rose up sor-o,ying,
| and, leaving earth, flew back to heaven.
And when the injured went forth to slay
| their injurers, and crimsoned the plain with
their brsthers' blood, Peace rose up SORROW
ing, and, leaving the earth, flew back to
heaven.
Thus each bad act scared some good
angel from the world, until Forgiveness.
the most beautiful of all, alone remained
behind. And when she heard Anger and
Revenge whisper dark deeds in mems ears,
and coansel them to repeat what had been
done to them, she rose up solrowng and
said:
II will not leave the earth. While my
sister angels were heIe might have rested
in my Fathers bosom, for man needed me
not; but now that they have fled, I will
seek to make man listen to my voice, telling
him that as he cherished forgiveness here,
so that forgiveness will cherish him here
after.'
At that moment a new and most beauti.
full star blazed in the heavens. It was the
star of Bethlehem. Pointing to it Forgive.
ness said. "Behold, the light of the world.
1t shines as a promise that will ever d well
upon the earth" And Peace and Love,
repenting, flew back and have never since
left the earth. So the ioveliest angels Of
heaven came home to the world on the first
Christmas morning.
