Announcement.
The Christ mas Tree.

The church was crowded on Monday
evening by old, middle aged and young,
the latter being in the majority. There
were two Christmas Trees erected upon
which were displayed great variety of
presents both useful and ornamental.
the whole being brilliantly illuminated
by myriads of wax candles distributed
among the branches. After appropriate
exercises by the children Santa Claus
appeared in Wintry costume and the
distribution of the presents was COM
menced. Each child wns the recipient
of nice gift from the committee in
charge of the affair, besides which a
large number of presents from private
individuals were bestowed upon friends
and relatives of the donors.
The committee deserve great praise
for the just and impartial manner In
which the business was conducted, and
the children of Elko were delighted
with the beautiful presents which they
received. The enterprise WAS a success
and speaks we'll for the generosity of
our citizens.
