THE shepherds said one to another
Let us go over TO Bethlehem and let
US see this word that is come to pass
which the Lord hath showed to u.s. "
These Shepherds" said the speaker
were keeping the night watches over
their fiocks in the neighborhood OF
Bethlehem when an angel of the Lord
appeared to them and not only an
nounced the glad tidings of the
Sevior's birth. but even pointed out
the place and circumstances
while / cannot pretend to bear any
divine commission TO you. like that of
the angel to the shepherds, yet I will
undertake to conduct you tonight in
spirit and in truth to the city of Beth
lehem and into the grotto of the ma
tivity, and l feel convinced that you.
like the shepherds, will return to your
homes praising and clarifying God
for what you shall have seen and
heard"
The speaker then described the word
Bethlehem and the physical forma-
ton of the place.
1T Is built upon two limestone hills
that run east and west and that are
united by saddle. Extending up TO
the saddle and almost cutting the city
in two is a deep ravine or wady, as 1t
is called by the Arabs, while 1t Is
south, and these hills and ravines
have always made it a strong STRAIT
egic position in time Of war.
ION either side of the central ravine
are natural and artificial terraces on
which flourish the fig, olive and the
vine. On the southern hill is situated
the grotto of the nativity, around
which so many sacred memories
cluster. It is reached on the north
side by a fight Of sixteen steps and
on the south by fight Of thirteen
steps. It is 80 feet long. from 10 to II

II shall not easily forget bur visit
to the grotto three years ago yester-
day. AS 1 stood within the grotto an
indescribable feeling seized my whole
frame, for J realized forcibly that
was standing upon the spot that was
lighted by the brightness of heaven
on the first Christmas night, where
the angels announced the glad tidings
Of the Savior's birth and where the
heavenly host sang, Glory to God in
the Highest and on earth peace and
good will to men, The feeling pro-
duced in my soul that hour was so
deep and permanent that I imagined
that I heard the angels chanting,
Gloria In Excelsis Dec ct in Terra Pax
Hominibus..
At this point the choir broke forth
and repeated the angelic strains. 1t
was very impressive and a wonderful
effect was produced on the immense
audience.
Father Caraher then impressively
told how he celebrated mass in the
grotto at $3.50 o'clock in the morning.
The musical selections comprised a
violin solo by Miss Clotilda Devlin
and selections rendered by a Sicuian
choir in charge of A. B. Collins.

STEEL MEN Talk OF
EXTENDING THE WIRE TRUST
Efforts viii Be Made to Induce Al the
Billet Mills in the Country to Join
the Combine.

CLEVELAND, Ohio, Dec. 26.-There
is talk among steel men of a further
extension Of the scope OF the new wire
trust. 1t is now said that efforts will
be made to induce all the steel billet
mills in the country to ally themselves
with the trust, not as members, but as
contributors. The trust will seek to
induce the manufacturers of billets to
promise not to sell to wire manufac-
turers that may possibly start outside
Of the trust, and in return the trust
will promise to take billets from all
these manufacturers as 1t may need
them. The object of this is to keep
the bil1et-makers in good humor and
prevent their going into business them
selves. Those who are closest to the
source of the information express the
utmost confidence in the carrying
through the plans for the formation
of the trust, and it may be said that
all the negotiations are progressing
favorably

SALINAS, Dec. pa man who gave
his name as Jack" Wilson was ar
rested yesterday afternoon by Sheriff
Matthews and Deputy Sheriff Nesbitt,
charged with having obtained money
under false pretenses. 1t is alleged
that Wilson entered a store at Sole

proprietor to make out check for him,
giving as a reason for the request that
he was unable to write. The merchant
willingly wrote the check, drawing it
for s17 and some cents, payable on
one of the Salinas banks, and signing
Wilson's name, the latter making his
mark. Wilson then cashed the check
and when 1t was presented at the
bank no money was found to his Gre

tie else has been done toward putting
her in proper shape. A new center
board, to replace the one lost while
coming to San Francisco. was made
for her, but did not fit and had to be
taken back to the iron works for al
iteration. If the necessary changes
cannot be made and a good Job guar
anteed a new centerboard will have to
be cast. E. A. Wiltsee, the new own
er of the Aggie, returned from the East
last Thursday and he will personally
superintend the refltting OF the living
quarters on the yacht. When complet-
ed the Aggie will be one of the most
comfortable pleasure boats on the bay.
Owing to the cold weather the de-
mand for coal has been such that the
yards are nearly empty. In fact, some
of them had not even a CARLOAD in
them yesterday. The arrival of the
steamer Progreso and the ship Spar
tan will relieve the famine at one of
the yards, at least temporarily. Both
vessels will begin discharging to-day.
The annual dinner Of the Corinthian

was held in Pythian Castle, 909 Market
street, yesterday afternoon TO discuss
a reception to be given TO Dr. Nansen
upon his arrival here.
AS the meeting was called In a hurry
the attendance was not so large as
expected. The sentiment of the gath
ering was unanimously in favor of
getting up as big a demonstration as
possible in honor of the famous ex-
plorer and scientist.
Consul Henry Lund opened the meet
ing and was elected chairman byaccla-
nation. Mr.. Lund gave the history
Of the movement up to the present
time and suggested plan by which a
cooperation of the three Scandinavian
peoples could be effected In this city.
After some discussion an executive
committee of five was elected
This committee received instructions
to address the Swedes and the Danes
OF San Francisco and ask them to CO.
operate. It was thought advisable to
communicate with the several Nor
wegian, Swedish and Danish lodges
and societies and to invite each of
them to send a representative to the
committee. A general committee could
members as a nucleus.
The committee was also given full
power to- act, to find the ways and
means to get UP anything that could
fit the occasion and do justice to the
Importance of the affair
The singing societies were represent
ed at the meeting, and the chairman of
their committee, P. o. Aune, promised

lows: John s. Lindtner, John Ferem,

Biolstad.
Rev. c. Hoe1, pastor of the Scandi-
navian Lutheran Church, addressed
the meeting in very enthusiastic and
patriotic speech, urging the Scandi-
navians to a friendly and harmonious
combination. He said that this was
an occasion for which all Scandinavia
ans could and ought to pull together,
then mutual understanding would
surely bring about great and credita-
bic showing. He also remarked that
there are about 10000 Scandinavians
in San Francisco, number to justify
expectations of something worth no.

found on their persons.
