 The Christmas celebration of the Sun- day school of the Congregational church, Westford, was equal to the general expec- tation and passed off quite pleasantly. The exercises consisted of singing by the choir (the pieces being we'll rendered), recitations made and selections read by the scholars, and, of course. instrumental music The three young violinists, Charles Amidon, Arthur Wood and Johnny Cole, are evidently in love with their instruments and played well. The general opinion seems to be that everything was done in a creditable manner. It seemed to be this year productive season for the Christmas trees. They had fruit on them of all sorts, eatable and wearable, useful and orna- mental, gifts serious, and among the chil dren gifts funny; yes, and among the men too, in few instances. The pastor spoke briefly on fruit bearing and was followed by the superintendent, MT. Amidon, on brotherhood. May we all be of those who overcome. who shall eat of the tree of life which is in the midst of the paradise of God, in the heart of heaven.

A Millionaire Arrested in Chicago for
Persistent Begging.

tence in the Chicago Bridewen for beg
ging on the streets. 81 found him in

was soliciting aims from everybody who
came along. | drove him away several
times, but just as soon as my back
was turned he would return and keep
up his begging" Old man Mueller
would make no answer to questions,
and Justice Doyle fined him $50. This
the old fellow declared he could not
pay, and SO was sent to the Bridewell.
Mueller is probably the richest man in

them was so obvious that to have gratuiously
abandoned this opportunity to enlarge
trade would have been objectionable error.
There were but two methods Of maintaining
control of this question open to Congress- t0
place all of these articles upon the dutiable list
subject to such treaty agreements could be
secured, or to place them all presently upon
the free list but subject to the reimposition of
specified duties If the countries from which we
received them should refuse to give to us suit
able reciprocal benefits. This latter method. |
think possesses great advantages. 1t expresses
in advance the consent of Congress to reciproci
ty ARRANGEMENTS affecting these products, which
must otherwise have been DELAYED and unascer-
tanned until each treaty was ratified by the Sem
ate and the necessary legislation enacted by
Congress. Experience has shown that some
treaties looking to reciprocal. trade have failed

indeed. TINS reciprocity provision is more than
an offer Our part OF the bargain is complete;
delivery has been made: and when the countries
from which we receive sugar, coffee, tea AMI
hides, have placed on their free lists such of our
products as shall be agreed upon, as an eQuiva-
lent for our concession a proclamation OF that
fact completes the transactions and n he mean
time our own people have free sugar. tea coffee
and hides.
Tbs Indications thus far given are very hope
full of early and favorable action by the coun-
tries from which we receive our large imports
of coffee and sugar and it is confidently be-
1eYed that if steam communica ton with these
countries can be promptly improved and en-
