CHRISTMAS AT REESE CREEK.

EDrroR CHRoNlcLE:-
Now that the great and notable day on
which Christ the Saviour of the world
was horn, has passed, we feel like giving
to the readers Of the estimable CHRoN-
IcLE brief account of how the eve was
passed. At the chapel on Reese creek,
the place were the good people Of the
vicinity 80 much love to meet, there was
prepared the most borntifully ladened
tree ever known in this part of the
Lords Moral Vineyard" Tho children
were finely remembered by the parents
ofthe school district, with rich and
costly presents, and while the children
were bountifully remembered the adults
were not forgotten. All came empty
handed, but all went away loaded, no
one failing to receive some fine gift.
The presents were nicely arranged with
a view to good and permanent benefit
to those most in need of them. The
programme of the evening was arranged
about as follows The opening exercise,
music, by Prof. rrfchard's choir, which
was followed with prayer by Father ].
E. Reese. Then followed declamations,
dialogues and singing by the school
children. After that Santa Claus ap-
peared on the scene and proceeded to
distribute the presents, to the great de.
light and jov of all the little ones. After
the presents were all distributed and
the old and venerable Santa Clause had
taken his departure. the exercises Of the
evening were closed by singing and all
retired to their several homes, much
happier for having been there.

ANOTHER FIRE.

At II o'clock on Friday m orning the
community was again startled by an
alarm of fire, while column of black
smoke poured from the store just occu-
pied by Henry Topic as a tailor chop.
A hole was quickly cut IN the building
above the fire and good stream of
water soon accomplished the extinguish-
ment of the incipient blaze. The fire
evidently originated from a defective
flue, burning hole in the ceiling and
then communicating with the cloth lin.
ing and the goods below before it was
discovered. The goods were speedily
removed without much damage. If
argument is required to convince some of
our citizens that frame buildings should
not be re-erected within the fire limits it
certainly was effectual produced by this
fire, which would have been very de-
structive had it occurred at night.
