Heralding the Holidays.

With the summer seemingly a
dream of only yesterday and few
for1orn leaves still clinging to the
trees, it is hard to realize that the
sun will rise only a few more
times between now and Christmas
Yet such is the fact. In SO short
a period as Ieight days the atmos-
phere of the holidays, filled with
brightness and gaiety and the
laughter of children, and laden
with the aromatic odor of spruce
and pine, will prevade the town.
1t is hard to say who has been the
first to blow the trumpet heralding
the approach of Eye merrie time.
Like the maiden who puts aside
her house dress and dons her cos
tune for the ball, the staple, all
the year round goods have. to a
large extent, been displaced by
toys and dolls, and the ten thous-
and and one knick knacks and ar
ticles appropriate for Christmas
gifts. Many of the show windows
are triumphs of the window dres-
ser's art.

The Talk Of the Town.

Savage beasts of the jungle, subservi-
ent to the will of man. can be seen at
Hagenbeck's s Arena, 9TH avenue and
55th street, New York. daily, and it is
safe to say that no performance ever Civ
en- in that city equals the one now at
Tattersall's in novelty. Aside from the
entertainment offered and the wonderful
display of human will power over brute
force, the beasts in their way display all
the human passions depicted by actors
and actresses on the stage. When at
work the tigers represent fierceness. the
lions dignity, the leopards treachery, the
bears low comedy, the elephant homely
wit and the dogs love and devotion. The
wonderful performances of these animals
have become the town talk. 1t is ac-
knowledged to be the premier show in
town.
At all OF the mat1nees children are ad-
mitted at half price, and the big audito-
nun is crowded every afternoon with
Youngsters who enjoy the comedy of
the bears as we'll as the ferceness of the
lions. Hagenbecks name has become
popular. He is known all over Germany
as "Uncie Carl" and his name IS as
likely to become endeared to the chill
dren of this country.

Valuable Aids for vet. U. Workers

We are in receipt of two little
booklets, entitled, "A Word to
Moderate Drinkers and What is
in the Cup?" They are from the
pen of Mary A. Freeman, wife of
Mayor Z. P. Freeman, of Eureka
Springs, Ark, who is one of the
ablest workers in the w. c. t. U.
to-day. These booklets are writ
ten in a most stirring and convinc-
ing manner, and the man who can
read them without being infu-
enced thereby is almost beyond re-
demption. They will prove
wonderfully powerful weapon in
the hands of the women of any
land, and every one who is in sym
pathy with these noble temperance
workers, should take these booklets
and hand to their friends who may
be inclined to look upon the cup
as harmless. They are sold at five
cents copy, and the proceeds of
their sale is to be used toward a
building for the w c. T. U. of
Eureka Springs. Orders can be
sent to Mrs. J. c. Fraker, Eureka
springs, Arkansas.
Here is a grand opportunity for
the w. c. T. U. of Passaici to get
in some effective work by distrib-
ing lot of these booklets.

place in almost any room. 1t is evident
ly the work of a genius, and as Teas,
Coffees, Sugars, Spices, etc. are neces-
sary articles, and as the Great Atlantic
and Pacific Tea Co. sells only the best
at the lowest prices, every family that
purchases any of these articles there
during next week will receive picture.
The Tea Company is always surpris-
ing its patrons in happy way and this
is one of them. Remember the place

Mechanical Toy Exhibition.

The Toy Show and Christmas di splay
which opened on Monday night at the
Lenox Lyceum, Madison avenue and
goth street, New York, is one of the at
fractions of that city that has a great
deal tc recommend it to public favor
There is amusement for everybody, and
the showing of Christmas goods makes
the Exposition valuable to visitors to the
city. The Santa Claus is great hit.
He goes down the chimney, visits the
children in their little bed, gives them
presents. and goes back again. The
Lenox Lyceum is scene of beauty with
its Christmas decorations and handsome
booths. There are entertainments on
the stage which interest everyone, and
an important fact to be remembered is
that every lady purchasing ticket of
admission for rs cents. and every child
who buys one for Is cents, receives a
valuable present The managers are
generous and the show should be pop
ular resort until its close on the goth.

The Editors Embraced.

Congressman Scranton, editor
of the Scranton Rebu6liean, and Col.
Boies, millionaire editor of the
Scranton zrlbune, have been at such
daggers' points that each sued the
other for $4,000 damages. Sun
day both happened to attend the
same church where Evangelist
Mills was preaching. Both were
shown to the same pew Both lis
tened to Mills talk of charity and
neighborly love. His words
burned into their souls and melted
them. Suddenly, as if by inspira-
ton, the two editors turned face
to face and then embraced. They
Immediately received the congrat-
ulations of their friends present

RAILROAD NOTES.

The winter schedule of the Royal
Blue Line appears on page four.
The Burlington Route carried
2,3oo, 900 to Chicago, during the
Fair, and from local points near
Chicago carried 2,7oo, 900 making
total of 5000, 900. This immense
number of people travelled without
an accident of any kind, and with
out serious delay.
Erie baggageman John Cannon
has held that position for As years,
making an average of 85,28o miles
a year; taking out two years lay
off on account of sickness, injuries
and leave of absence would make
43 years of solid mileage, making
to his credit I,967,o4o miles
more miles than any one engine,
car or man in the world has
travelled.
The use of search lights on To-
comotives has evident advantages
and is exciting much attention
among railroad men. President
S. E. Fulton of the Cincinnati
Southern, running from Cincinnati
to Chattanooga, has introduced
electric headlights on the engines
of all passenger trains used on the
mountain division of that road.
The lights are visible four miles
and are working successfully.
The d. L. & w. Railroad Com
pany owns GA passenger cars,
which are operated on the eight
divisions of its system. The
Morris & Essex division operates
twice the number of cars of any
other part of the system. Of the
GA cars, 3Ia are passengers cars,

the people of Passaic City and suburbs
population of more than &c, 900, largely

The advantages which it possesses for
those who wish to bring their wares to

rapidly, and it's afeld which merchants
in all lines of business would do well to
