In the mind OF Christendom the
Christmas season has for centuries been
set apart as a time Of peace and good
will among men. To the religious
feeling originally prompting this dis
tinction has been added a sentiment
cultivated by the social customs and
usages OF the people OF all Christian
lands. II Is the time OF gift-mnking. of
reconciliations. of reunions, of the
overcoming OF resentments, and the
burying OF feuds and enmities. IT Is
the season when men try harder than
at any other time 10 cultivate the spirit
OF happiness and peace. IL Is because
OF this effort. because of this prevalent
feeling that the Christmas season Is
generally associated with what is
tendcrcst. sweetest and hottest In
human life. that IL is so pleasant always
In anticipation and 40 delightful in
recollection. Who can doubt hat each
recurring Christmastide does leave
the whole world positively better than
IL found IL a gentlcr. kindlicr spirit
among men. more love, more sympathy,
all the world somewhat further aleng
towards the day when war shall be no
more and the peace OF God shall reign
throughout the earth? Christian

GEORGIA's GRANITE.
The Government Experts Report on
it Adversely.

Washington, Jan. Representative
Tarsney of Missouri, who is the god
father of the Kansas City public building,
called at the treasury department to-day
and was permitted to read the report of
the experts detailed to examine the sam
pies Of stone offered by the competing
contractors to be used in the construc-
ton of the proposed building.
Mr.. Tarsney informed the Morning
News correspondent tonight that the ex-
perts report adversely upon the Georgia
granite, and also the Arkansas stone.
He says the only southern stone that
stands any chance in the competition, If
the advice of the experts is followed,
is the Texas granite. 1t is probable how
ever, according to Mr.. Tarsney that the
Wisconsin granite will be selected as the
cheapest and best of the samples sub
mitted.
Representative Livingston and Secre-
tary Hoke Smith were also at the treas
ury department to-day in the interest of
the Georgia granite, but 1t appears that
their appeals will have but little avail
against the adverse report OF the COM
mittte of experts.
