CHATTER THE PUSARl < AnvENTURF
 Buried in the depths of the great Thorokadu jungle lay the little village of Pandiynn lIalra-,iozen low, round mud hutS with conical roofs, matched with rice-straw, each with its paa,lcd or workshed, granary and cooking-pot stand composed the village A strong stake-fence surrounded each hut, in tended as much to keep off the village cattle as a protection from the wild beasts which infested the surrounding jungle. On two sides of the village the jungle rose like wall; on the third side lay the village tank. Along the Jw,d or dam grew number of giant maruthu trees, with their spreading twisted roots in the water, and their long branches hanging gracefully over it. The placid surface of the tank, with its dark background of jungle looked like a plate of burnished silver. and lav clear and unrutfied save by the splash of some water-bird fishing. or the move ments ot a slowly swimming crocodile On the top of the dam, under a gigan- tic tree and overlooking the village, stood little temple. It was a small mud hut, painted iu vertical stripes of red and white. A rudcly hewn stone idol, smeared with oil and coarse paint, and representing Puliya, the jungle god stood on niche at the further end. A rough slab of stone, on which lay with cred offerings of flowers, an iron tri- dent stuck in the ground before the door. dirty brass lamp, and bell comprised the rest of the sacred furniture and utensils. Through gap in the wall of jungle, on the other side of the village, could be seen the rice-telds, irrigated bv the tank, an eXpanse of emerald green. Picturesque watch-huts and stacks of last season straw stood here and there in the fields
 It was late in the afternoon, and very hot. To the shade of a group of huge dense-toliaged tamarind trees that stood in the center of the village all the ami nal population of Pandiyan appeared to have come. Black undiscovered bufia- loes all standing and staring stupidly, dwarf village cattle wandering restlessly about, pestered by swarms of flies, mangv gaunt pariah dogs snarling viciously at each other and long-legged skinny fowls-all had sought protection from the burning rays of the sun under the shady trees.

When the pusari came to his senses, he found himself lying in the jungle. It was early morning; but there was sufficient light for him to distinguish the surrounding objects, He sat up and looked about him. At first he could not realize where he was; but when re- collection of his night adventure flashed across his mind. he became instantly wide awake. He looked curiously and anxiously round There was not the least sign of any village or habitation of any sort-only dense pathless jungle all roundl- For some time he sat trying to recall the incidents of the past night
 It seemed to him like wild dream
 He shuddered when he thought of it, and rising hastily, he prepared to leave the uncanny spot But he could see no path or track of any kind.

By the new organ. just as the master Of
ceremonies climbed into the shining tree

Another present was cruel reflection by

Rev. II B. Vile, the pastor, made an
admirable address to all present, and about
O'Clock the happy children dispersed to
their homes.

y At 5 O'Clock Christmas morning the
Star shone bright above the main altar of

decorated with flowers and ablaze with
candles, and as Father ,Dinneen stepped
into the chancel to celebrate his first mass
the choir opened che service with that
beautiful hymn, "Veni Creator Optime."
The church Was crowded with worshippers,
and many of other denominations we're
present and enjoyed the service-especial-
ly the singing. Az 1850 z. M, Vespers
were sung, after which Father d. preach

Then succeeded the most intensely in
teresting part of the exercise, especially
to the children, that is the distribution of
the good things, and the Remembering OF
the richly laden Christmas tree, and con-
sisted in: 1st gift for every one. 2nd
prizs for merit. 3rd special present from
some particular friend.
The entire outlay would have been cred
liable TO any church in town, but when
we consider the numbers and wealth of
the Second Baptist church it was indeed
remarkable.
We forbear, believing it unwise, to make
any discrimination Of either any gift re-
ceived or the name of the one who received
it, unless we could give the name of every
scholar belonging to the school, which is
simply impossible.
The entertainment concluded with some
Magic Lantern scenes, pointed ont and
explained by w. d. Gambler. The most of
these were representations of noted events
recorded in the Bible. with now aud then
a ludlcrous one thrown in to create mer-
rlnent.

THE IS VIRGINIAS" AND THE
INDUSTRIAL SOUTH"

These two journals which have done an
incalculable amount of practical good for
Virginia, will, with the new year. be con
solidated and published as one. Maj. Jed
Hotchkiss, the able and thoroughly post
ed editor of the ''Virg inias." will go into
the new journal with all the enterprise and
indomitable pluck in awakening the people
of Virginia to the unconsidered wealth
under their feet, that he has shown in the
old. His residence will continue to be
Staunton, where his editorial labors will
be performed, but the combined journals
will be printed in Richmond, where The
Industrial South and Virginias" will ap-
pear hereafter as handsome quarto
weekly For a resident of Virginia to
wish the new enterprise well is to wish
himself we'll, so we need not say that the
consolidated papers start with an abund-
ance of good will and, we may add
for those who properly appreciate the
good they do, an intense desire for their
wide circulation, in this country and
Europe.

In the rear upper room of the Somer-
vile building, the Second Baptist church
on Tuesday evening last, celebrated their
first Christmas Sunday school exercises.
The first thing on entering the large
hall Whose seating capacity Of over 300
was entirely taken up, chairs, aisles and
all; some bravely standing to the end) was
the three CT dar trees. glittering through
out with all manner of toys. presents and
prizes for the blessed little folks. Conspic-
uous among these childish attractions
were two large siz+ dolls costly nestled
side by side near the top OF the middle
tree looking like veritable angels half en-
sconced, but pt eping out from behind a
dark cloud.
The programme briefly stated, and all of
which was happily rendered, was lst. song
No 12l, from ''River of Life,' Prof. W.
q. Funk of Rocking ham. presiding at the
organ. The audience must have seen at
once that Prof. F. knew how to charm
by drawing from the virtues of wood,
metal and ivory. %. A short bnt appro-
pirate prayer by j. s. Gillian. 8. Song

which Supt. j. Hutchens, 10 few warm

Then came the distribution of prizes
which kept the Superintendent, assisted
by Messrs. Guy Cochran and Jos Shirley,
busy for half hour, while everybody
seemed to be happy and entertained. The
credit Of the entertainment is mainly to
be given to Mrs. Davis Kayser, who got
up the scheme, and to Mrs. Geo. z. Baker
and Miss Fannie Bayly. who were at
great pains in drilling the children and
arranging everything to 60 off smoothly,
as it did.
While the children were receiving pres

last they were aided by the grown people.
