 That Kris is sometimes facetious IS beyond question.

Twas then that our confidence in his gen. erosity took flight and if we re- member correctly, we said many un- complimentary things of him, which would not look well in print, and al though three score years and ten have fled since then, the sting of disap' pointment, on each recurring Christ mas eve, bricks us as reminder that Kris Kringle will not always do to tie to.

 "At recent meeting of St. Johns Episcopal church, in East Boston, 1t, was proposed to make preparations for the usual annual fair, as heretofore. To ths the new rector, Rev. A. H. Monro objected, emphatically. lie said if St. Johns church could not meet its current expenses without hav- ing recourse to fairs, thea tricalS, rare shows. and auctioneering, the sooner it shut down the better"
 The Tucson Citizen prints the fore going, which carries our recollection back to the vealy age when love s bright, peculiar star attracted us. We attended church fairs and our only re- gret was that there were not more of them. We patronlzed the grabbing, partook literally of what, by courtesy, was called oyster soup, and upon an occasion when we thought the soup unusually thln, we shocked the pro priety of the fair Hebe who kept watch and ward of the tureen and manned the ladle, by taking eff our cravat i've wore one in those days) and unbuttonlng our shirt collar, She gazed with wondering eyes upon what, to her, seemed a strange proceeding, when reminded that he who would search for pearls must dive below, and that we were going for the oyster, she regained her composure and explained that the original three had long since been scooped by the minister. We desisted, and requested that she should not grasp the ladle, and gave as a reason, for not wishing to imbi5e, that water swelled a man. She was seem. ingly satisfied, but asked if we earned a pocket magnlfying glass, as she wanted square look at our feeble mustdche to see how much of a man we were
 We left the pert mss and bought a place in the line of struggling expec- tants on their way to the post office, where every one who pad fifty cents got letter. We got one inviting us 10 meet her by moonlight alone, at the end of the lane" We were there an hour before the appointed time and lingeringly waited and listened for approaching footsteps until the gray of the morning, without hearing the rustic of a female gown. Not wiling to give 1t up so, we attended the far the succeeding evening and received another letter announcing the serous illness of her mother as a reason for not keeping her engagement, and that she had secret to impart which might influence our future life, and the letter closed with the injunction, "do not fail to be at the place of ap- pointment." We were there, but had not waited long before another, and another callew youth appeared upon the scene who could give no other reason for beng there than that they were snipe hunting, and wished to know if we had a sack and candle. We have aged since then and with our experience are prepared to em phasize the opinion of tLe Rev. A. H. Munro in regard to church fairs where oyster soup and local post office, grab-bag and ratfie are the principal attractions. Were it not for the pres ence of Gods last, best gift to man, "the joyful occasion would be about as lnsipid as Sally Brass beverage of lemon peel and water.

 When all the details connected with the securement of the verdict in the Wham robbery case are thoroughly understood, when all the hellish de- vices are fully exposed, which they will be, then the honest and law abid- ing citizens of thls district will begin to appreciate the necessity of a thorough organization for the enforcement of law and the punishment of crime. There IS no protection for private rights when such miscarrlages ofjus- tice are possible. All respect for courts and legal proceedings vanish in the presence of such results. It mat ters not by what means 1t was accom- plished (and startling facts are coming to light), the possibility of recur- renee of such fatal consequences warn the citizen that he has very little to hope from the deliberation of iuries under the present reIgn. When jus tice becomes mockery, and lawless- ness goes unrebuked, the citizen is relegated to his original right of self defense. The history of the Wham trial and its astounding result, con clusively establish the fact that the good men of this district must rally to the support of law, or surrender to the criminal element ot tie country.
