India as a Winter Resort.

India is rapidly becoming a fashionable
winter resort for tourists. As the autumn
advances the Peninsular and Oriental COM
panys floating hotels take out heavy freights
of passengers, which include many persons
besides those who are merely returning to
their duties after leave of absence No doubt
the trip is expensive, and it eau not be really
appreciated unless the tourist is a med with
u good budget OF letters of introduction. But
TO many its great attraction is that it has not
Yet become vulgarized. The winter climate
is enjoyable; the official world welcomes
those whose social position in this country
renders letters OF introduction unnecessary;
and even the ordinary tourist is appreciated
If he comes properly recommended. Posi-
bly,, the recent heavy fall in the velue of the
rupee will cause the Anglo Indian to think
twice before he indulgeS i'll lavish hospitality;
but this seems 10 have little effect on those
who wish to see how India is governed. The
tourist troOping season has set in with excep,
tionGl severity this year, and before long we
shall be hearing that the excursion agents
have taken the matter in hand with a view
to arranging cheap circular trips with fixel
charges for everything. James Gazette.

Yesterday afternoon about 4:3O as one
of the TINES reporters was passing up
Broad street he noticed a crowd on the
corner of Tenth. Proceeding to that
point he found Policeman A. T. Walton
endeayoring to carry drunken woman
to the station-house. While the TINES man
was making a mental note of the affair and
admiring the officers patience in dealing
with the woman he was politely re-
quested to assist in escOrting the refrac-
tory female to the police station. AS
there was no other alternative, the de-
sired assistance was rendered, and after
much struggling on the part of the
woman, she was finally landed in cell
in the Second police station. Here she
refused to give her name, and amused
herself in the vain endeavor of battering
down the cell door, loudly screaming all
the while

A Noble Charity.

The two branches of the Woman S
Christian Temperance Unions, assisted
by the Ladies Mission, yesterday gave a
Christmas dinner to the needy and indi-
gent portion of our population. The
ladies had the use of Old Market Hall,
and had the tables arranged in such a
manner as to accommodate about $50 at
one time Each child was presented with
q toy and a package of candy. Large
paper bags were provided for those who
did not wish to eat their dinner with the
crowd, so that it might be carried home.
1t was estimated that between 1900
and 1900 persons availed themselves of
this generous charity.
Everything passed off pleasantly, and
too much praise cannot be bestowed upon
the ladies for their efforts in making the
dinner perfect success.
