OUR YOUNG PEOPLE
Christmas Day.

The Christmas chimes are pealing high
Beneath the solemn Christmas sky,
And blowing winds their notes prolong
Like echoes from an angels song;
Good will and peace peace and good will,
Ring out the carols glad and gay.
Telling the heavenly message still,
That Christ the Child was born to- day.
In lowly hut and palace hall
Peasant and king keep festival.
And childhood wears fairer guise,
And tenderer shine all mother eyes;
The aged man forgets his years,
The mirthful heart is doubly gay,
The sad are cheated of their tears,
For Christ the Lord was born to-day.

Deer Caught for the Catskill Park

Speaking of the results Of his at'
tempts to capture deer for the Cats
kill Park, Game Warden Fox said to
n Albany IN. ~ Argus reporter:
"We employed little different
method from any of those hitherto
known to get the deer. After they
were driven in the lake boat would
put out, and, after firing two shots as

ers, the men would row up and slip a
sort of moose made by twisting to.

held till help arrived. Then the men
in the second boat turned it on its
back and tied all four feet together,
lifted it out on boat, and there it
vas secure and unharned.
81 do not know just how many vii
be sent down altogether, but 1 think
there will be herd of OF least sixty.
i've in the Catskill reserve, aside from
the three dozen or so now loose in the
woods. This is the breeding season,
and although it is not a fact, as many
suppose, that does always bear twin
fawn, though they generally do, ex.
pect to find about ninety or a hundred
deer in that park next spring. At thia
rate it will not be long before there
will be plenty of deer in the Catskills

Those twelve does were shippei
through Albany via the National Ex'
press, in crates, and will be placed in
the park at once.

The Owner of the Indians Land.

The lands of the Five Nations (in
the Indian Territory are ostens1biy
held in common, but as matter OF
fact the disproportion in holdings ia
monopolistic to remarkable degree.
The real Indian derives little benefit
from his patrimonial acres. The pale
skinned Jacob has stolen Esau's birth
right. There are farms, rich and
highly cultivated, of from 5000 to
25, 900 acres in body; pastures OF
long succulent grass whose fences
horseman cannot encompass from sun
to sun mines opulent with their stores
of coal; but they are controlled by
professional red men, or the mixed
breeds whose dominant blood Is white.
It is said that score OF Ch1okasaw
citizens, in whom combined there Is
hardly enough aboriginal blood to
make a frll-blood Indian, control
nearly ninety per cent. OF the arable
lands of that Nation. A Cherokee
souaw man is said to hold more land
than is held by all the full-bloods IN
the tribe. Under tribal Law there ls
no limit to the extent Of citizens
holding. He can control and enjoy
the usufruct of as much land as he
can fence without encroaching upon
the improvements of q fellow citizen.
AS consequence the National domain
has passed into the possession OF ths
more Intelligent and enterprising ele.
ments of the tribes, the inter-msrried
citizens and mixed, breeds, who con-
stitute probably four-ffths OF the
the population. These landlords, many
of whom operate on a scale colossal
enough to make the estates OF the
land barons Of the Old World seem
mere truck patches in comparison,
utilize white aon-citizen labor IN the
cultivation and improvement OF thell
vast farms. The Indian agricultural
toiler is an anomaly, and colored labor
is uncommon. As rule, especially
in the opening up Of new farms, the
tenant not only furnishes the labor,
but the improvements also, under an
annual rental contract based on
hare of the crop.-Harper's Magazine

Griscom. She was married three times

son Of Andrew Griscom, who came to
Philadelphia from Yorkshire in 1852.
and who is known in history as the
builder of the first brick house in
Philadelphia. Samuel WAS a Friend,
and lived for many years on Arch

house-carpenter, and assisted in the
erection Of Independence Hall. So
much for Betsy Griscom's family. As
Betsy Ross, the widow, she lived for q
long time in the old house before and
after the Revolution, conducting 8

Washington had for her, led the Con
