"Tramp's Hotel"

Washington Letter.
Itissaid thatnecessity makesstrange
bedfellows. No better Illustration of
this adage can behad than isafforded
by the Night Lodging House, or
Cramps Hotel' as it is Familiarity
called, where during the recent cold
snap many of the disappointed office
seekers and others stranded in the
Capital City found shelter from the
weather. Although the Lodging
House was only established a few
years ago it has grown to be one of
the features of Washington. When a
visitor arrives he is required to give
full statistics concerning himself, af-
ter which hearty supper of hot soup
and bread is served; he is then re-
quired to take a bath-this feature is
one of the invincible rules of the
house-after this being completed he
is given a comfortable bed for the
night and breakfast in the morning.

Ere this reaches many Of the read

have dawned upon us. The little
ones are eagerly awaiting, earnestly
expecting to find their stockings full
of good things from the bountiful
supply of Santa Claus. To older peo-
ole, it is solemn reminder that
time flies. BY many, Christmas is
looked upon and kept as a day of
revelry, but being the day on which
the Savior was born, it ought to be
kept in quite different way.

Costly Codes.

Nashville Banner.
Among the items of expense pub
lished in the comptroller's report is
that of $4,000 % paid according to
the direction of the legislature for
codes to be furnished free to the JUS
tices of the peace of the state. The
remarkable feature of the wholesale
purchase is that instead of buying
books at wholesale prices, the legisla-
ture appropriated the peoples money
to buy a wholesale lot of books at
retail prices. No business concern
would have bought these codes with
out STIMULATING for proper discount
upon the retail price. If the legisla-
ture had had a just regard for the
people it would have saved some
thousands of dollars of the peoples
money by making just and business
like transaction.

The South's Noontide of Prosperity

Obion Democrat.
The South is just entering on the
morning of her development and
prosperity, but she is travelling to-
ward a lasting noon with rapid
march. The face of the Southland
is changing and the old go-easy ways,
the slow moving pastoral manners,
the languid and delightfully."- gener-
Gus and chivalrous life are passing
away and with them many of the
cherished and charming old-time
Southern customs and sociabilities.
The country is becoming imbued
with the energy, enterprise and cold,
strict business methods of the North
and East, and mingled with the
music of the mocking-bird, the boot
of the owl, the huntsman's winding
horn and the singing of the darkies
in the cotton fields may be heard the
whirr of wheels, the hiss of steam
and the hum of machinery. The
plowshare of business is turning up
the fower-garden of sentiment. The
lilies and the peoples are being
crushed beneath the iron wheels ofin-
dustrial progress. The old times and
the old ways are departing. With
some of them we part without regret,
but with Others we feel like taking
a fearful, lingering look as we see
them fading into the misty shades OF
the eternal yesterday.
