the same place on two or three previous
evenings Three acts Of fancy skating

skill Of the performer. His rapid gyra-
tons and evolutions almost made one
giddy in watching them, and only the
theory that his brain was Injured to the
whirlng motion could account for the
preservation OF his balance. The begin
mere and the dudes acts were highly
comical and we'll sustained. The
spread-cagle houndering in the one,
and the lah de-dah get.up and ex
qIisite taking on Of the modern dandy
in the other, made merriment enough
for anything. Mr. Wall is to be con.
graduated on having secured such an
attractive variation of tie bill at the

turns to the Coast by the Australia.

SURGEON GENERALS REPORT.

From extracts from the annual report
If the surgeon general of the United
States, published in the Washington dis
patches this morning, it would appear
that document must be, in some respects,
a remarkable one.
The report announces, in an en-
phatic way that "no epidemic disease
has been imported into the United States
during the year." Yet, in the same breath,
DR.. Hamilton speaks of the noted Biloxi
fever as "a fever of a very suspicious
character" Only that the surgeon-gene-
rails report is grave state paper, this
might be set down and labelled "a
Joke" The Biloxi fever was pronounced
genuine yellow fever by some of the most
distinguished physicians in the south, in
Guiding DR.. Holt, of New CLEANS, and DIR.
Swearingen, state health officer of Texas.
The latter having been through the great
epidemic of 1867, and WHO knows yellow
fever when ne sees III. leu, III tne eyes Vi
the surgeon general it was only ''suspici-
ous." And if yellow fever, it must have
been imported, if the latest conclusions
Of science are true.
Again the surgeon-general, speaking
Of cholera, says at usually haunts the
houses of those too poor, or too negli-
rent to pay for regular cleanliness of per-
on and surroundings" This is so much |
ike one of the old time utterances of |
lalf century ago, so at variance with
he recent discoveries of the German Phi
Dsopher Koch, that the suspicion is
trong that DR.. Hamilton's report has
zen, Internationally perhaps, misrepre-
ented by the dispatches.

love makes fairer paradise than ever poet
dreamed.
"In thy presence men forget their cares,
women their trials, and the sceptre OF
household sovereignty passes to the i'm
perious hands of little children.
"There is balsam in thy breath for
the healing of the sore of heart and dis
tressed. Thou pourest wine and oil into
the wounds of those lacerated and bleed
ing from the hard battle with the world.
80 holy Christmas! Thou roundest
out the year with loving kindness; thou
fillest the earth with feasting and glad
ness, and the sky with the music of the
love of God to man, and the hearts of us
all with that peace and that joy which we
know and feel and yet cannot under
stand"
No more can be said than is here said
of this glorious morn, the anniversary of
the birth of Him who brought the blessed
gospel of peace and good will toward
men. Who preached the priceless doc
trine that we should do unto Others as we
would that they should do unto us. That it
is more blessed to give than to receive Who
declared that we must bless them that
curse us, and pray for those who des-
pitefully use us. Celebrate the day with |
Joyous song, with mirth, with laughter,
md with feasting, and for this day at
east let us possess that charity which
hinketh no evil.
