ALL HAIL! ALL HALL
The Holiday Season Is Again With
Us.
WHAT WILL THE PRESENTS BE
Probably the Most Difficult Thing
to Decide Is What to Buy and
Where to Buy Ii. So q Few
Pointers May Interest You.

Butte, Dec 21-Necessarily q news
paper man must make the circuit OF the
city in which he is employed, and be-
ing naturally of an inquiring turn OF
mind. he ascertains a good many facts
which the average citizen in other
walks of life passes by unnoticed; not
that the former is any brighter, but
it comes In his line of business.
The holiday season always awakens
memories of the past, enhances the
pleasures of the present, and inspires
hopes for the future.
We who have passed into mature
man and womanhood recall the scenes
of childhood back in the old home; on
these festive occasions the pleasures
we experienced on Christmas morn
when well filled stockings gave us re-
newed assurance that Santa Claus was
no myth. How. as young men ana
maidens, the tokens of friendship or
love, led us to take a more cheerful
view of life and strengthened the ties
which bound US.
How those of mature years seemed to
have their youth relieved by being
kindly remembered during this holiday
season. The same sentiments which
were characteristic then exist to-day,
and the things which appealed to these
sentiments then still appeal. Butte
was never in better shape, or as good,
as to-day, from a financial standpoint;
our people were never SO able to be
generous. Then let us all unite to make
this one of the happiest seasons that
Butte and her enterprising people have
ever known. Butte's stores are loaded
with an endless variety Of goods Of
every description. appropriate for
Christmas presents, so that the most
fastidious can find just what they
want.
The jewelry stores are especially at
tractive, and none so attractive as that
of Legs. His windows are bowers of
beauty, in which the richest gems
sparkle, and the finest product OF the
jewellers art are displayed.
The line of ladies' watches is espe-
cially fine and no doubt many of
Butte's budding maidens' hearts will
be gladdened by the possession of one
of these beautiful little 'tickers" on
Christmas morn. The beaux will be
just as happy IL they can swing one of
those handsome gold-headed canes, and
even the older gentlemen, as a rule,
take kindly to a cane If 1t comes in
shape of Christmas gift. A genera
tion or two ago opera glasses were en-
joyed only by the few; now they are
the thing for all who are in the swim.
Legs has them in every style and at all
prices.
We are all Interested in silver, and.
as a silver producing community, we
should all buy silver as far as possible.
We cannot describe the stock at Legs /,
but 1t is superb; everything in silver
that the heart could wish Great trunks
of silverware at any price, up to sever
al hundred dollars each. The fact is,
all this stock must be seen to be ap-
preciated, and our advice is not to put
of your buying till the last day.

The Amateur in the Air.

In his illustrated balloon lecture, Eighty Minutes in the Heavens, or the Experience of an Amateur in Thirty four Voyages" Captain D. s. Thomas says: "One can hardly describe the peculiar fascination for ballooning which often possesses beginners. There may be some little nervousness at the start. but once in the air and sailing over hills and valleys, over mountains and plains, over cities, towns and vii lages, across sparkling rivers and over beautiful fields and dense forests, the young voyager loses all sense of fear and dwells only upon the grandeur of the scene"

CONFESSION IS REPUDIATED AN0THER PHAsE IN THE FAMOUS
 BARBARA AUB CASE.

Great Excitement in the Court Whom tho
 Report of the Young Woman's Retrac-
 in State of Great Mental Excitement.
 New York, Dec. 11.-Barbara Auh, who confessed to Recorder Golf on Thanksgiving night that she had false- ly sworn when she testified in the trial of Walter l.. S. Langerman that he had criminally assaulted her, is said to have repudiated that confession.
 There was great excitement about ths court of general sessions to-day when the report of the retraction began to get about. Assistant District Attorney Townsend, who prosecuted Langerman, stated that one of Barbara,s aunts had informed him that Barbaras retraction was made to her in the Tombs. Bar- bara, while weeping, told her aunt that her confession was false and that her testimony given at Langerman's trial was true. Barbara said she had beem forced into making the confession by Miss Kellard one of the women in charge at the Door of Hope, where Bars bara was stopping after the trial.
 Frederick B. House, counsel for Barr bara Aub, was called to the Tombs prison this afternoon, where he met his client in the presence of two of her aunts. MT. House was then informed that his client had retracted her confess sion. 4
 MT. House, when seen later, said:
 You can take my word for it, thera has been a. retraction made. It was not made to me, nor in my presence, but to | one of her aunts, who has interested herself in the case"
 On being asked whether Barbara was mentally unbalanced, he replied that she was in state of great mental ex- citement. MT. House further said that he would call at the Tombs early to- in writing. When District Attorney Fellows was seen regarding the retrac- tion he said there was no probability of putting Langerman, who was releas- ed after Miss Aub made her confession. again on trial; it would be a needless expense for the county. He also said he would want stronger evidence against Langerman than was now in his possession. In regard to prosecut- ing Miss Kellard for subornation of perjury in forcing the confession from Barbara, the district attorney would not commit himself.
