Christmas Greeting

Every year brings its holidays and
festive days but there is only one
day that all nations throughout
christendom celebrate alike. and that
day is Christmas. Ever since the

Jour born" has been celebrated
throughout the world. "Glad It'd.
ings of great joy' has been sounded
and every heart should feel and
every tongue should praise.
Before this great day a whole
month is spent in planning by those
wishing to make hearts glad, and
bring happiness to others. Children
look forward to this great day as an
event in their lives, and youth and
old age are on the tip.toes of expec-
fancy as to what they shall receive
and what happiness they will confer
by what they give others on this
eventful day. Viewing this event as
one of happiness and JOY we should
all study to please and on that day
do nothing to mar the pleasure of
anyone, rather endeavOr to do some
thing that will brighten your home
folks, and if in your power make

General Butler and the Chief Justice.

One day shortly before my Charlestown
case came up was going down in the cars
from Lowell to Boston, and at the request
of merchant friend of mine was taking
down my dog to leave with him. The
smoking car was always a sort of exchange
as we went down. had no sooner entered
the car with the dog behind me than was
saluted with
Hello, hello, Butler; where are you
going this morning."
Down TO the supreme court, gentlemen. y
as that your dog?"
Eyes"
what are you taking him down to court
for?"
"Oh," said, Il thought l would show
him to the chief justice so as TO teach him
to growl."
Shortly afterward the Charlestown case
was tried and decided upon every point in
my behalf, the chief justice delivering the
opinion, and it was so conclusive that it
put off the annexation of CharlestoWn TO
Boston for twenty years
Shortly after this l called in the course
of business into the consultation room,
where sat the chief justice alone, and after
the usual salutation he began, We'll. Mr.
Butler, you won your Charlestown case"
oh" l said, thanks, Mr. Chief Jus
tice; | am exceedingly obliged to you for
giving me that case"

Inc fact that John has withstood the severe
course OF training which he has been subjected

apparent to me that he must be sound in wind,

humanity is Sullyl He has undergone physical
Trials In twelve years such as men of great
strength have found killing In nature in half
the time. Yet he is robust and vigorous today,
andsas matter of fact a better man than he
was seven years ago. He retains his strength
and his agility and his hitting power, and is
much better than he was on July S. 1889, when
he met Jake kilrain at Richburg, Miss. Pass
Ing years have no ill effect on him, it would
seem, nor has his mode of living been
apparently deleterious to his constitution.
when suily met kilraiu in 1889 he had

before the fight he had been forced to allow
kilrain TO claim the title of champion, and six
months previous to the battle his hackers
were 80 doubtful of his ability to
again enter the ring that they sought
to match an unknown, and stand chances OF
his getting into shape. But his remarkable
constitution and his indomitable pluck enabled
him to get into such condition that he
was able TO fight for three hours under

Big Men Easy Game for Sullivan.

view 1otk hecoroer, August 10.
Corbett is IN fine condition aud fears he will
get so light in weight that he has decided to let
up in his work and put on flesh This is wise
move. Jim will need to weigh very much more
than he now does If he expects to stay long in
the same ring with Sullivan. Weight has not
stopped the big fellow yet, ard it probably will
not on the 7th OF September In fact he has
always said that "the bigger the man the easier
tho mark" And when you como to consider
matters 1t appears that his judgment is very
good. The only men who gave him trouble
were men comparatively small, while his easiest
conquests were over men As big or bigger than
himself. ''Tug" Wilson, being small and active,
stood him of for four rounds. Mitchell, at l62
pounds, was the first man to knock John down
and the only man to fight him a draw in finish
fight Mccartney, at l59 pounds, gave him n
tussle for seven rounds, and Jack Burke, at l56
pounds, battled with John for five rounds.
Flood, Ryan, Latin, Slade, Robinson, AL Marx,
kilrain and others OF the big 'uns fell before
him like the wheat before the scythe. The big
men were easy, the small men bothersome.

THE CHINESE EXCLUSION ACT.
Internal Revenue Onlcers Antlcipate
Trouble In Enforcing tho Law.

Isternal Revenue Onlcers Anticipate
Trouble In Enforcing tho Law.
WAsHIsGToN CRY, Aug. 22.-Ten DAYS
from now the internal revenue bureau will
enter upon its first experience in register
ing and photographing all Chinese resi-
dents in this country. With many mis-
givings and doubts experienced officers of
the department fear that the provisions of
the latest exclusion law will be found almost
impracticabIe Of enforcement. Commenc-
ing on the 1st of September every
Chinese in the United States, except the
diplomatic corps and a few recognized
merchants, is required to make application
for residence certificate to the near
est internal revenue collector, describing
himself, his age and occupation,
and proving his identity by pre-
senting and filling three proof-sheet
photographs of his face. His statements
OF facts are to be supported by the affida-
Wits of two creditaDle witnesses and upon
the approval of these applications the col
lector Is authorized to issue him q certifi-
cate emitting him to continue to reside in
this country. ANY Chinamau who fails
to provide himself with such
certificate of registration between
now and the first Of May next is liable to
deportation back to China. There are
10000 Chinese in the United States. Over
10000 of these are in California, and 5000
In Oregon, and there the brunt of the ex-
clusion act will fall. There are nearly
5000 in New York, over I, 600 in Pennsyl-
vania and nearly 1000 in Massachusetts,,
besides 700 in Chicago and 800 in st. Louis.
where no slight difficulty is anticipated.
The internal revenue people quote an
ancient saying about the difference be-
tween leading horse to water and making
him drink. They point out that the
obligations of law are discretionary with
the Chinese. Ii they do not choose to go
themselves to photographers and to make
their applications within the prescribed
time, the revenue officials have no power
to compel them. The only penalty is de-
portation. which falls under the domain of
the encouragement and secretary of the
treasury. Anticipations of difficulty enter
tanned by the internal revenue officials
seem to be borne out by the fact that of the
100000 appropriated in the sundry civil
bill to carry out the law. only $4,000 has
been allotted by the secretary of the
treasury to the internal revenue bureau to
provide the necessary deputies to execute
the law. while $40 900 has been retained by
the treasury department and department
OF justice to meet the cost of deporting re-
calcitrants.
