Christmas DaY.

Peace and good will the VOICE angels sing
And lOwly shepherds first the tidings hear;
While in a manger lies the newborn king
And none but earth's most humble ones
are near.
Peace and good will, the Savior's gentle
voice
Throughout his life divine proclaims for all;
The meekest child of sin he bids rejoice
And on the sorrOwing heart his blessings
fall.
Peace and good will through centuries Of
blood
The cross Of Christ makes known to all
kind.
Kings have no power to check the onward
flood;
Fen serfs their freedom in its shadow find
Peace and good will we sing in joy today,
As round our happy ares!i91es we meet;
Nor can the richest of our number lay
More than the lowliest at the Master feet
Peace and good will; dear Jesus may we grow
More like thyself and never stOop to bear
Thy blessed peace to suffering ones and low
Nor shrink thy cup of agony to share.

What Ingalls Thinks.

ArcH1soN, Kan, March 10.-Ex-Sen-
ator Ingalls, says he is glad to see Presi-
dent Cleveland exercise some sense in
regard to the Hawaiian affair by with
drawing the treaty. He said: "I hope
that he will keep it in his trousers
pocket. To take in lot of valueless
islands that he would have to fortify and
worry about would be contrary to the
principles and traditions of our govern
ment. The Hawaiian treaty was great
blunder. Cleveland ought to send a
delegation to Hawaii to ascertain the
needs of the people and to see to what
extent the sugar spectators are respon-
sible for the reyolution.''

NEW YoRKy March 10.-Russell w.
Sage said today: t'The decision appar-
emily arrived at by treasury officials to
use the 500, 600 900 reserve is an expedi-
ent that will prove temporary pallia-
tive, but will not tend to allay fears in
the monetary question. The cause of
the trouble will not be removed till the
Sherman bill is repealed, and Europe
will not buy our stocks and bonds with
any confidence till this measure is en-
tirely out of the way.
ST think the election of S. II. n.
Clark to the presidency of the Missouri
Pacific will be gratifying to everybody
concerned. His resignation from the
Union Pacific does not mean anything,
because be will still remain a director
in that company, and the relations he.
tween the companies will continue
friendly.,'

PROPOSED EXPEDITION TO CUBA

WASHINGTON, March 10.-The Post
publishes the following:
ssThe work of arranging the senate
committee chairmanships had SO far
progressed that nearly all had been se-
lected. The most interesting develop
ment is the fact that the free-silver men
propose to run the senate their own way
and are recasting the finance committee
SO as to leave no doubt of the stand
which the committee will take upon any
coinage bills before it. The democrats
| on the committee up to the 4th of March, ,
were Voorhees,, MCPHERSON, Harris and
Vance. Voorhees, will be chairman.
Harris and Vance are both outspoken
| free-silver men and will remain. Nc
Pherson will step aside to take the chair
manship of the committee on naval af-
fairs. Other democrats on the finance
committee will be Coke and Vest, both
avowedly ON the free-coinage platform.
lit will be seen that no matter what
Cleveland desires the personnel of the
finance committee is such as to make ii
/ almost impossible for him to dominate
the financial policy to be efollowed by the
senate All the anti-silyer men, such
as Villas, Mcpherson and others, have
been purposely kept off the committee,

AN Expedition to cuba.

KEY WEST, Fla, March 10.-The
revenue steamer McLane, Captain Lit
tlefeld commanding, arrived here on
Wednesday to replenish her coal supply
and to communicate with the authori-
ties. The McLane has been cruising
actively between Key West and Cape
Florida for the past week to intercept
the pirate steamer which it is expected
will sail with the filibustering expedi-
tion from this port or from some of the
islands between here and Biscayne bay.
The proposed expedition is said to be
under the direction of a prominent Gu
ban leader, General Manuel Marti. 1t
is reported that at least $50 men are on
the island of Key West, who will go on
the expedition, and it is expected that
at least 100 others from Tampa, Florida,
will join at some remote place known
only to the leaders. These men are all
well drilled and disciplined. and armed
with repeating rifles. No people in the
western world are more patriotic than
the Cubans of Key West. They have
set aside day which they have called
Patriotic day. The earnings of every
Cuban for one day are donated at Pa
triotic day to the cause of Cuba. 1t goes
without saying that SO per cent. of the
Americans of this island are in sympa-
thy with the Cubans in their struggle
for independence. None of the vigilance
on the part of the United States author.

The cruiser At1anta's men are still or

McLane will resume her cruising be

soon as she takes on q supply of fuel

Miss Ida Bachto1d Found Dead in Her
Bed.

PORTLAND, Or, March 10.-Ida Bach
told, the 20-year-old daughter of John
Bachtold, proprietor of the William Tell
house, 249 Fifth street, was found dead
in her bed shortly after O'Clock this
afternoon, having expired very suddenly
and under circumstances surrounded
with the veil of ofmystery. Miss Bachtold
cooked dinner for the hotel last evening,
and retired about 10 O'Clock, sleeping
with her younger sister, Lena. During
the night she gave no evidence fitness,
but this morning shesaid she felt too i'll
to get up. At O'Clock she was asleep,
and each time visit was paid to her
room she was calmly sleeping. About
o'clock this afternoon Mrs. Bachtold
went to Ida's room and found herin con-
vulsions. Her limbs were drawn rigidly
and her face was almost black.
DIR. Meyer was sent for at .once, but
before he arrived the vital spark had
been dissipated. The matter was at
once reported to Coroner Holman, who
removed the body to the morgue. The
corpse began to show signs of mortifca-
ton before it was cold. 1t is believed
that death was produced by an overdose
of some powerful drug.

HARDENED TO GOLD.

Siberian Natives Who Are Insenslble to
Very Low Temperature.
How much usage will do in toughen-
ing the human body is well shown by
some facts about the natives of Siberia,
as recorded by the author Of Reindeer,
Dogs and Snowshocs." Cold he says,
seemed to have no effect upon them.
Frequently, when we could not ex-
pose our ears for two minutes without
having them frozen, the natives would
go for an. hour ut time with their
hoods thrown back from their heads;
and when it required constant watchful
ness to keep our noses from freezing,
they did not appear to notice the tenn
peraturc at all.
One morning in January I stood in
perfect amazement at thcir disregard of
the low temperature. They worked for
at least half an hour with bare hands,
packing up the tent and utensils, hand
ling the packages and flashing them to-
gcthcr with icy seal thongs, without
experiencing the least apparent incon-
venience, while 1 partly froze my fin
gers striking light for my pipe with a
flint and steel. the whole operation talk
ing not more than three minutes:
The night before, happening to go
out of the tent after our men had re-
tired, passed their camp, which was
near by. Their fire had burned to n
pile of cmbers, barely affording me
light enough to, distinguish the
sleepers. They were lying cooled up on
small dcersl1ins, with their backs to ihe
embers and thciy fur coats thrown
loosely over their naked bodies. ..
The coat of one of them had slipped
almost entirely off his body, leaving his
back and shoulders exposed to tenn
peraturc Of eighteen degrees below zero,
Fahrenheit, and, though his hair was
frosted, he snored as soundly as If in
comfortable quarters.
