A MORAL WAVE.
1t Swept Over the Capital City on
Christmas.

The police say that quieter, more or
derly Christmas was never experienced
in the city than the one just past. Peo-
pie appear to have been on their good
behavior. and even the proverbial i'm
biber did not overdo it.
1t is true that K. Rehner took too
much Of the juice that exhiiarates, and
at an uptown hotel made bluff to end
his joys by the hemp route. and at
terward declared his intention of slic-
ing q great ugly hole in his vitals, but ii
ended in his being called down by the
police, and the hand he showed was
small potatoes. He was given free
lodging and was turned loose yesterday
afternoon.
Then Ed. Jordan, a young fellow for
merly identified with a boot-poHshing
establishment, and latterly engaged as
clerk in a downtown shooting gallery
and an-round gambling place, was ar
rested for carrying a concealed weapon.
Jordan must answer for his action.
Dan OHara was also arrested on a
charge of having disturbed the peace,
while two other men and one woman
had spent too much time over the dow-
ing bowl, and in the end were unable to
navigate.
That is the sum total of the Christ
mas gathering at police headquarters
and the officers are inclined to believe
that with the day a moral wave struck

IN THE EVENING.
Joy Was Made to Enter the Hearst of
Little Ones.

In the evening the citadel was filled
with a crowd of about 600 children and
families, all eagerly waiting for the
presents that good Santa Claus was to
distribute. The platform was tasteful
ly decorated. and two Christmas trees
lit with wax candles and covered with
toys added to the attractiveness of the
scene. G. A. Capen acted as Santa
Claus, and made an excellent represent
ative of the childcens friend.
There was little time wasted in hand
ing out the presents. The same SyS-
tematic work that had made the dinner
and distribution of supplies such sue
cess was apparent in the distribution
of the Christmas tree presents.
Every child's wishes had been ascer-
tanned ard as nearly as possible his or
her desires had been gratited. As the
ames were announced eager hands
We're lifted and cheerful voices called
out Here here!" Then the crowning
joy of the day was experienced by the
little ones as the wiShed-for prizes
were handed out. Dolls, drums, trum-
pets, books, games and every other i'm
aginable form of toy was there and
given to the little ones. Some of these
had been donated by the stores, others
by children, and Still others purchased
from the army funds.
Nor were the heads of the families
forgotten There was something for
everyone, and that something was the
one thing desired or needed.
The kindly spirit that pervaded the
whole work was in keeping with the
self-sacrificing and unSelfish devotion
of the soldiers to their duty. and they
made everyone happy and grateful
without wounding the pride Of any or
disturbing their self-respect.
1t took nearly three hours to distrib-
ute the presents, and then the soldiers
left for their homes to enjoy a few hours
of well-earned rest They We're at work
again yesterday morning cleaning up
everything, and before night they had
the hall as spick and span as if no BAN
ql ct had been held therein the day be-
fore.
Early last evening these noble-hearted
men and women were out on the streets
at their rescue work just as if nothing
haG happened to disturb the even tenor
of their lives.

The skirt was perfectly plain and made
with overlapping seams. The black,
tight fit ting coat bodice, which also

vest was trimmed on each side of the

braid, and set closely down the front
were two rows Of tiny black cloth but

A story in one of the late magazines
deals with the love Of an insane woman
for a large wax doll which came into
her possession through the bfunder of
an expressman. 1t is very realistic and

is borne out by facts In real life She
relates most touching incidents of the
delight insane women find in dolls.

In some of the high class furnishing

utility bags These are the large
bowl-shaped tool bags of the old coun-

about in them. Smaller sizes are used
in Ireland by the old women for beg
ging baskets. They are pliable as a
fisherman's hat, and being lined with
leather and bound with stout braid
are strong, yet very light The tool
bags such as are seen here measure
fully thirty inches across; they are car

ARE strillingly effective on light col
