The whole exercises of Christmas
eve were quite interesting. The ever.

for the children. This was due to the
efforts OF Hon. Thos. B. Teter, who
got the government to donate over $50,
to be invested in presents for the chill
dren. A large number of their par
ents and friends were out. The hal
was quite full. The program consisted
Of songs, speeches, recitations, etc.
After the exercises were over, Mr.
Mitchell, government clerk, was called
on for speech. He spoke about twent,
minutes, and congratulated the pupil.

every entertainment they had, the last
one was the best. He declared thai
he could fairly see them learn, and that
they could compete with the white
children anywhere. He was sure they
would make useful citizens of society
Christmas was duly observed with
turkey-eating and various games.

The First Snon.

The first snow came. How beautiful
Il was, falling so silently all day long,
all night long, on the mountains, on the
meadows, on the roofs OF the living, on
the graves of the dead! All white, save
the river that marked Its course by q
winding black line across the landscape,
and the leafless trees that against the
leaden sky now revealed more fully the
wonderful beauty and intricacy OF their
branches.
What silence, too, came with the
snow, and what seclusion! Every sound
was muflied, every noise changed "a
soft and musical. No more trampling
hoofs, no more rattling wheels. Only
the Ginning sleigh bells, beating as
swift and merrily as the hearts of chill
drer. --Longfellow.

ELECTRICITY IN HARNESS,


Boston Hns n Horseless Carriage
English In Appearance.
From the New York Times
horseless carriage, propelled by electric
ity. Is one Of the latest novelties enjoyed
by the thoughtful Inhabitants of Boston.
The new carriage is not a toy. but a vehicle
weighing 800 pounds and carrying six or
seven passengers.
Like some other Boston inventions, 1t Is
English in appearance, with American
works inside. ItJresembles an English
break with deep well underneath the
noor,rin which the IS forage batteries and
motor are placed. The batteries consist
of forty-four chloride cells, arranged in
four groups of eleven each
The motor has nominal strength of four
horse power, and turns the hind wheels by
means of an intermediate shaft and chain
gearing. In order to allow the vehicle to
make sharp turns without upsetting, the
intermediate shaft is cut in the middle, so
that different rate of speed can be applied
to each wheel
The steering apparatus Is connected with
the front pair of wheels, each of which is
hinged on the axle and may be locked at
any angle by means of spring latch
worked by the foot of the operator The
speed attained by the carriage varies from
four to fourteen miles an hour, according
to the grade of the roadway and the
amount of power turned on. An electrical
controller gives three well-defined rates of
speed, and no rheostat for intermediate
speeds has been found necessary.
