1t would be good idea il our town
authorities would enforce the law against
shooting on the street and in other peo-
ules' lots and yards. 1t has become al
most q nuisance, and besides it is dam
gerous. Every negro urchin who has
nothing else to do, and can raise money
enough to hire a gun for day, is Oh:
shooting, and many Of them care very
little where or how they shoot.

minister to shot gun or Winchester rife, say

upon the condit on in which he keeps his arsenal
zs his charges are always entertain ing and
instructive. His re marks were in keeping with
the day. In speaking of the Christ.child. he
showed how differently children were treated
pror to Christ's coming and how Christ made the
change. When the elders tried to prevent the
children from being brou ght before Him, He said:
"FOsbd them not for of such is the kingdom of

heaven" Mr.. Albright related an incident Of
the battle of Lookout Mountain. soldier lay
dying; it was Christmas time and as the night
drew on his restless eye became fixed upon
brilliant star. Remembering the day he feebly
started the Hymn of the Nativity" Comrade
after comrade took it up until the whole army
joined in the triumphant strain.
The Rev. Mr. Half then spoke to for few
moments in the English language. Dwelling
briefly upon the incidents of Christs birth. he
passed to the manhood and works of our Saviour.
He called attention to the universally of Chr SITS
church, AMI how we all might become members
of it. He spoke more at length in the Swedish
language for the benefit and pleasure of his cOun-
trymen who form portion of our population.
The Warden then wished us Happy Christ
mas saying that it was hardly the thing to wish
any one who was detained against his will
Merry Christmas" He thought. however that
he could honestly wish us happy one and that
he would do all in his power to make it so. He
spoke of the past year with its trials and the
future with its uncertainties. He urged us to try
and do right so that if we should be called from
this life that we would be prepared, and if not,
then we could look back upon the year with pleas
ure, and the consciousness that we had done our
best.
Our Chaplain then briefly called attention
to the barbarous methods Of treating criminals in
ancient times. How they were kept for years in
dungeons built under streets and fed through
gratings; how their ears and hands were cut off,
and their eyes put out. From these realistic pic
lures he rapidly etched the influence of Christs
teachings upon these crueties, of the changes
that had been wrought by the message of peace
and goodwill that came to all men.
The Warden then announced the program for
the afternoon. and the audience was dismissed
with the benedicton by Rev. Half.
