bered in Centerville. 1t will be remembered
hereafter as an occasion for especial thanks
giving. The people there were spared the
spectacle of an awful holocaust, which might
have been as bad as any recorded in the an
nails of public edifices coming to grief while
filled with people. There were the incidents
which on other occasions have made scenes
of horror thai one shoulders to read. There
was an ediice crowded so that people could
hardly move there was a collapse of the
floor, with many people, men, women and
children, thrown into a vortex, as it were, in
frantic fear there was a lighted stove in the
same building to fall into the vortex and
scatter it's Goals on inf1ammable substances,
and to complete the holocaust.
4 X 4 4
1t was a happy crowd that poured into the
Methodist church on the hill last evening to
participate in the festivities attendant on
the distribution by Santa Claus in person of
an abundance of presents which that ubiqui-
tous individual had provided for the worthy
scholars of the Sunday school. They filled
every seat and stood on every inch of stand
ing room. and even filled the entry out into
the wintry street.
\ X X X
1t was about a quarter past 8 o'clock. The
lower end of the church floor is laid over a
cellar about eight feet deep. Up by the pull
pit, where the two Christmas trees and the
stove stood, the floor is laid on the ground.
A cracking sound broke the universal har-
mony and the floor over the cellar began to
sink into it, letting its unusual weight OF
human beings down. Seats, people and all
slid into the vortex and an appalling series
of shrieks and yells changed the scene of
happiness and mirth into one of horror.
Fortunately the stove did not move, nor the
I lights fall. The people were mixed in the
| pit in inextricable confusion. The crowd
| who were above it near the pulpit rushed
forward and aided in completing the catas'
trophe. The screams were heard all over the
town, and hundreds rushed thither. Win
dows were broken open and the women and
| children handed out through them or the
doors.
Wonderful to relate, when all was over, nc
| one was any the worse, save and except the
fright and a few bruises. The panic did not
last long.

CHRISTIANS e
And Other Observances Of the Happy
Holiday.

Christmas was we'll observed by the sew
eral churches and Sunday schools of Deer
Lodge. For the Christmas eve festivities
the evergreen decorations at the Presbyte-
rian church were renewed and tastefully re.
arranged. The pulpit stand was supplanted
by q beautiful Christmas tree, which was
loaded with we'll filled candy bags and
oranges, and the Christmas exercise, ''Tha
Birthday Of Our Lord" was we'll rendered.
Harry Mcmillan and Mabel Catlin each
gave = short recitation, KIM Lung sang
"Hold the Fort in Chinese language, Rev.
A. f. Bishop made a short address, closing
with the presentation Of an Oxford Bible to
Ruth Trippett a. q reward for learning the
whole of the "shorter Catechism," and re-
citing it at one sitting. After the exercises
the candy and oranges were distributed
among the children Of the Sabbath School,
and all seemed very well pleased with the
evenings entertainment, especially the Pas
tor, who received, in N envelope, a mum Der
Of five dollar gold pieces as his Christmas
present from different members of his con-
~gregation.
The success of the entertainment at the
Christian church Christmas eve was very
gratifying to the friends of the church. The
songs and Rotations were richly enjoyed.
The tree was q beauty n yielded as much
fruit as the Sunday School could get away
with, and a bountiful supply for outsiders.
The free lunch of ice cream, cake and coffee
was sufficient for everybody in both quality
and %anantity.

The Christmas Festival of the Episcopal
church was held in Beaumont's Hall on
Christmas eve. 1t consisted Of the usual de-
v~otional exercises, with the Christmas can
tata, "Santa Claus Mistake" rendered by
the Sunday School children, assisted by one
or two others. All of the parts were rem
dered admirably, especially those Of the
diminutive soloist. 1t is needless to say that
no child received the "bundle of sticks" but
every one went away satisfied with the gen
erosity Of Santa Claus. mm~
The usual service was held at the church
on Christmas morning, with the sermon by
the minister, Rev. A. B. Howard. The mu-
sic, directed by Prof. Kennicott, was excel
lent and appropriate.
