Is THERE A SANTA CLAUS!
An Article That will b e Refreshing to An
J Good Man or Won an who Reads It,

| An Article That Will Be Refreshing to An
} Good Man or Won an who Reads It.
The New York Sun prints the follow
ing little letter and very pertinent an
swer, which, together, make an article
that will be refreshing to any good man
or woman who reads it:
Dear Editor i am years old. Some
of my little friends say there IS no Santa
Claus. Papa says IF you see it in The
sun it is So Please tell me the truth
is there a Santa Claus? Virginia O'Han-
Ion, rs West Ninety-ffth street,
"Virginia," says The Sun, your lit
tie friends are wrong, They have been
affected by the skeptcism of skepti-
cal age. They do not believe except
they see. They think that nothing can
be which is not comprehensive by their
little minds. All minds, Virginia, wheth-
er they be mems or children's, are little.
In this great universe of ours man is a
mere insect, an ant, in his intelligence
as compared with the boundless world
about him, as measured by the intelli-
genCe capable of gTaspng the whole
truth and knowledge.
NGes, Virginia, there is a Santa Clans,
He exist as certainly as love and gem
crosby and devotion exist, and you know
that they abound and give to your life
its highest beauty and joy. Alas, how
dreary would be the would if there were
no Nirginias. There would be ~ child
like faith then, no poetry, no romance
TO make tolerable this existence. We
should have no enjoyment except in
sense and sight The eternal light with
which childhood fills the world would
be extinguished.
Not believe in Santa Claus? You
might as well not believe in fairies. You
might get your papa to hire men to
watch in all the chimneys on Christmas
eve to watch Santa Claus: but even If
they did not see Santa Claus that is no
sign there is no Santa Claus The most
real things in the world are those that
neither children nor men can see. Did
you ever see fairies dancing on tie lawn?
Of course not, but that's no proof that
they are not there. Nobody can con-
ceive or imagine all the wonders that are
unseen and unseeable in the world.
"YOu may tear apart the baby's rat
tie and see what makes the noise inside.
but there is veil covering the unseen
world which not the strongest man, nor
even the united strength of all the
strongest men that ever lived, could tear
apart Only faith, fancy, poetry, love,
romance can push aside that curtain and
view and picture the supernal beauty
and glory beyond. Is il al real? All,
Virginia, in all this world there is moth
ing else real and abiding.
mo Santa Claus? Thank God, he
lives forever. A thousand years from
now, Virginia, nay, ten times ten thou
sand years from now, he will continue
to make glad the heartsof childhood"

There is new fad in Washington this
season. 1t is a chatting dish club. Several
young men have hired a room down town
near their places Of business and conven-
lent to the theaters. Each man has his
locker, his chatting dish, his cupboard and
his private table there. The attendant in
charge Of the room takes care of the icebox
and keeps the chatting dishes always ready
for use A few staples for chatting dish
cookery are to be kept on hand, so that a
man may drop in and cook himself a
luncheon whenever he pleases. For more
ambitious dishes he sends word to the at
tendant to make all necessary prepara-
tions, and after theatcr suppers are expect
ed to be matters OF frequent occurrence. -

Pittsburg steel Manufacturers VIII Honor
His Memory.

His Memory.
The iron and steel manufacturers of
Pittsburg have Tubal Cain, the original
worker in metals, as their patron, and
propose to honor his neglected memory by
erecting statue in the Ohio river at the
junction Of the Allegheny and Mononga-
hela rivers.
The matter has been taken up officially
by the Engineers Society of Western Penn
sylyania and the Pittsbwg Foundrymen' s
association. 1t is proposed to build the
pedestal Of the statue OF iron and steel at a
cost of about $500, 600. Upon this will
rest a mammoth anvil, while colossal
bronze figure of Tubal Cain will stand in
the attitude of swinging an enormous
slcdge hammer.
The position of the statue will be such
that nearly every visitor to Pittsburg by
river or rail will see it from a distance
