The day set aside by proclamation of
the President as day of thanksgiving
is at hand and even the prisoners heart
is made glad by the contemplation of
good things in plenty; and out in the
busy world everything seems glad at
this time. The principle streets of our
great cities have taken on their holiday
attire and are all lit up. The air is cold,
crisp and bracing, and seems to crackle
with the merry laughter of the good-na-
tured, hurrying crowds all bent upon
their holiday purchases. Men with
laughing excuse jOStle one another,
bearing in their hands big, fat turkeys
which they are conveying to their warm,
cheerful homes to gladden. the hearts of
their happy families. Here and there
we see people with baskets so big and
heavy that to the onlooker it would
seem that they had as an object to
prove to God that they had good reason
to be grateful for plenty. It is cheer
full picture; but how sadly it becomes
dimmed through bitter reflection that
down the side streets, the byways and
alleys, are but too many of Gods i'm
mOrtalS who can know no gladness,
who shall have no turkey, and The bur
den of whose prayer is bread. Whose
little homes are only made more cheer
less by the cold, crisp air which seems
but little colder than the irony of the
Presidents proclamation. Oh, what
happy day it will be when through the
working of Gods power this grim spec
tire of want shall depart from our world.
What day of universal thanksgiving
it will be when men, unselfish will arise
from their own bounteous tables to say
grace unto God with a consciousness in
their hearts that on the whole wide
earth not one of Gods creatures knows
hunger. Let us take advantage of this
occasion to render thanks unto God
that the dawn of that happy day may
be seen in the spirit of the times.

Thankful for what? If our thankful
ness is to embrace the whole country
then should we give abundant thanks.
But if we take each separately we
find many who have nothing to be
thankful for. 1t may be said we all
should be thankful for life. Why is
life so sweet? For an infidel it is all; !;
for Christian it is just to-day and as
we are all supposed to be Christians
situated as we are we cannot be thank
full for life. There is no pleasure in
life for five-slXthS of the human race
and | don't see what a penitentiary
prisoner has to be thankful for Let
those who have cause of Thanksgiving
celebrate and give thanks. F. @.

The name suggests its object, a day
for giving thanks, and so the President
of the United States designateS it in
his proclamation to the people. A great
many people say "Well | don't see any
thing to be thankful for and think the
day is only for those who have had a
prosperous year. They are so much
taken up with self that they fail to
recognize that they are part of the
nation. AS l look at it, it is the nation,
not the individual, thanking the Giver
of all good and perfect gifts, and the
least we could do to show our apprecia-
tion of the fact that we live in free
and Christian land, would be to bow
our heads unto its Creator, while the
nation gives thanks. SPEs.
To appropriately celebrate Thanks
giving day, all that tends to produce
elevating influences should be carefully
considered together with the main OBJ
ject of its constitution. To me, even
situated as | am, the setting aside Of
this day for thankfulness to the Su-
preme being seems most appropriate
recognition of the marvellous design Of
the universe. 10 the masses of people
in this nineteenth century the day
should be replete with thanksgiving
for measure of advancement so far
beyond all other ages. AS units of this
great sum total of life, we should be
willing to celebrate, not merely our in
dividual condition, but the benefac-
tions that the human race is laden with.

AT public banquet given in London
within few years, one of the post
prandial speakers remarked affably that
the great wrong America did to Eng
land by not allowing herself to be con-
quered, was atoned for by the noble gift
of the turkey. By that it would seem
that the delicious edible bird was un-
known until our colonies had the honor
to introduce it into the old world
An Englishman in Paris asked our
own Franklin why the devil his coun-
tryman selected a stupid, uneatable
eagle as their emblem when they had
supplied them with such noble bird as
the turkey, which was good hot or cold
and most excellent warmed over.
Receipt books are generally and very
appropriately written by women, but
men of all English-speaking countries
have written upon the proper methods
of cooking turkey. One English phi
lOsOpherOf peculiar views on the sub
ject says:
"A turkey roast
Is turkey lost,
A turkey boiled
Is a turkey spoiled,
For a turkey braSed

A devOut American will not admit
that any method of preparing the tur-
key equals roasting, but braising, if we'll
done, is worthy of all praise. .-Miaarae-

ABINGDON VERY SICK.
Mitchelrs High Born Backer Ly-
ing at Deaths Door From
Pneumonia.
Last Night He Was Unconscious,
and There Was Little Hope
OF Recovery.

New ORLEANS, March 17.-George
A. Baird, better known as Squire
Abingdon,is III very critical state. and
his death is expected at any moment.
Ever since the day Mitchell and Hall
left the city the squire has been con-
fined to his bed at the hotel. Daily his
condition has grown worse. AT first IL
was believed that he was suffering
from a severe cold which he con-
tracted when he seconded jim
Hail in his fight with Fitz-
simmons. 1t developed shortly into
pneumonia; high feverS followed, ana
his temperature has been as high as lO6
deg. Constantly by his side renamed
two female nurses, besides his falth1u
valet, William Monk, and his private
secretary, Teddy Bailey. For two days
now he has been delirious, and scarcely
eats any food. Today Drs. Miles and
Fetish called consultation, but moth
ing was agreed upon, and they
will hold another tomorrow. Daily
cables are sent to the Squire's relatives
in England, stating every change in his
condition. Mitchell has been tele-
graphed at Buffalo, and he has sent
word that he will be in New Orleans
Monday. Baird has not been well
for months. but he has never been so
seriously i'll as he is now. Today
he had bad turn, and up to mid
night he was in the same comatose con-
dition. The squire since his arrival in
| the city has been leading life OF dis
sipation, and since HALLS defeat he
hardly went to bed until he broke down
in health. A physician is nearly all the
time at his bedside. and the best of at
| tentlon is given the sick sportsman.
There is little hope for his recovery.

AN ONNnH WANTED
For an Artificial Limb Found in
Il Easement.

For an Artificial Limb Found in
Basement.
Early yesterday morning laborer
going to his work saw something white
and cleaning on the flOcr of the base
ment under the dilapidated old house
at the corner of Main street and Second
avenue northeast. He crawled in
through the window and found the Ob-
ject was an artificial limb, almost new.
The limb was designed for male,
and the straps and sole of the foot
showed it had been worn considerably.
The labOrirg man took the limb to the
East side police station, and from there
it was carried to police headquarters.
The police are at a loss how to ac-
count for the presence of the limb in
the muSty old basement. Capt. BoS-
worth, Of the East side station, created
something of sensation by saying
that the woman who formerly occupied
the house had trap door constructed
from one of the rooms OH the first floor
which led into an underground pas
sage. This passage, he said, began at
one side of the basement and ran clear
to the river. He did not know what
use it was put to, but he guessed it was
built for no good. Capt. Helm remarked
that perhaps the artificial limb had be-
lOnged to some unfortunate fellow who
had been sent down the tunnel and
dumped into the river. At any rate, the
affair of the artificial limb is something
of mystery.
Last fall Maj. Henderson, who was
then at the head of the police depart
ment, was notified of the mysterious
disappearance of a one-legged man, who
had come to this city from Livingstone,
Mont. Nothing was ever heard of him,
and as no further news was received
from Livingstone the matter was
dropped and forgotten. 1t may he that
the limb found yesterday is in some
way connected with this missing man.

WEARERs OF THE GREEN.
Sons of Erin Celebrate in Many
Cities.

Cities.
NEW YORK, March 17.-The green flag
with the gold harp was raised i'll the
place of honor on the cit y hall this
morning because it was st. Patrick's
day. The earliest celebration was
the pontifical high mass, cele-
brated this morning by Archbishop
Corrigan at st. Patrick'S cathedral.
The main feature of the celebration was
the big parade, which started at 2
O'clock from the Washington arch, in
Washington square. Five thousand
men, the largest number which ever
marched in St. Patrick days parade
in this city, took part. Many bang uets
and celebrations took place tonight.
WASHINGTON, March 1.-THE only
distinctive celebration in Washington
i'm connection with the an niverSary of
the patron saint of Ireland was the cele-
bration of high mass by the papal le-
gate, Archbishop Satolli, in s.. PauPs
church. There was no parade, but
there was the uncomfortable st. Pat
rick'S weather, which took the shape,
this year, of snow fall.
CHICAGO, March 17.-Chi cago's cele-
bration of st. PatrIck's day was huge
success. the street parade being the
largest in many years. Col. Francis IL.

THEY ARE HOT.
The Flour City Lumbermen Are
Up in Arms.

y
Up in Arms.
There was meeting of a number of
the local lumber dealers yesterday after
noon, ana the manner in which the COM
mittee on logs and lumber, of the legis-
Iature. the members of which were re-
sponsible for the killing of the scaling
bill, was roasted, was artistic to say the
least. These lumbermen put themselves
on record as being ''agin" every them
be- OF the committee who worked
against the passage of the bill. They
discussed methods of retaliation and it
was decided to ask the Legislature to call
all investigation of the committee and its
business transactions. In fact, the lum-
bermen will demand an investigation,
and they will adduce such facts that the
legislature can hardly get away from
granting IT.
Remarks about Doodle were freely in
dulged in by the lumbermen. They
stated they could prove everything they
SAID, so there was no fear of libel or
SANDER suits. 1t was stated by one
lumbeTman that certain member of
the log and lumber committee came to
him and demanded to be given $1,000
for himself and colleagues as an III
ducement to vote for the bill when it
came up. He was refused, and went
away swearing that he would be even.
Some few days later another member of
the committee called upon HIM and told
him that if he got 81 900 he could fix it
so the bill would pass.
There are four of lis who must be
fixed" said he, land am one of them.
The other three we don't care about.
We are in the majority"
The lumberman referred to stated
that he was prepared to prove that this
conversation was true, and that he was
