New PuIImans for ID. Il O. r.. II.

The new sleeping cars that Pullmans
Palace Car company has placed in serv-
ice within the past month on the Balti-
more & Ohio road between Baltimore
and Louisville, KY, are quite an i'm
provement over those heretofore used on
that line. They have large smoking
rooms and an extra size ladies' toilet
room, a feature which will be thoroughly
appreciated by the fair sex who have
had to dress in some of the Columbian
cars hitherto used between those cities.
The Chicago and New York service has
been improved by the addition of seven
new Pullman cars which the Pullman
people say are the best cars they operate
anywhere They have large smoking
rooms, large ladies' toilet rooms, empire

company has recently introduced.

THE FEAST TIME OF THE YEAR.

This is the feast-tinle of the year,
When hearts grow warm and home
more dear;
when Autumn's crimson torch expires
To flash again in winter fires;
And they who tracked October's flight
Through woods with gorgeous hues be-
digit,
Tn charmed circle sit and praise
The goodly logs triumphant blaze.
This is the feast-time of the year
When Plenty pours her wine of cheer,
And even humble boards may spare
To poorer poor a kindly share.
While bursting barns and granaries
know
A richer, fuller overflow,
And they who dwefl in golden ease
Bless without toll, yet toll to please.
This is the feast-time of the year;
The blessed Advent draweth near.
Let rich and poor together break
The bread of love for Christs sweet
sake,
Against the time when rich and poor
Must ope for Him common door.
Who comes Guest, yet makes feast,
And bids the greatest and the least.

LEGEND OF THE MAGI.

The legend of the Wise Men of the
East, or as they are styled in the ORR
ginal Greek, "the three Magi,' became,
under monkish influence, one of the
most popular during the middle ages.
The Scripture nowhere informs us that
these individuals were kings, or their
number restricted to three. The legend
converts the magi into kings, gives their
names and a minute account of their
stature and the nature of their
gifts. Melchior, we are thus told, was
king of Nubie, the smallest man of the
triad, and he gave the Savior gift
of gold. Balthazar was king of Chal-
dea, and he offered incense; he was a
man of ordinary stature. But the third,
Jasper, king of Tarshish, was of high
stature, "a black Ethiope,' and he gave
myrrh All came with "many rich Or
naments belonging to kings array, and
with a multitude of people to do hom-
age to the Savior, then little child ID
days DID,"
The barbaric pomp involved in this
legend made it a favorite with artists
during the middle ages. The picture OF
"The Offering of the Magi," which we
publish, is from a circular plate of sill
yer chased in high relief and partly
gilt, which is supposed to have formed
the center of a morse or large brooch,
used to fasten the decorated cope OF an
ecclesiastic in the latter part of the
fourteenth century.
The Empress Helena, mother of Con-
stantine the Great, found what she con-
sidered the burial place of the three
kings, and their remains were removed
to Constantinople and inferred in the
church of st. Sophia. Later they were
removed to the Cathedral of Milan, and
in the twelfth century to Cologne, where
they still lie, in a magnificent reliquary,
enriched with gems and enamels. These
relics are enveloped in velvet and dec

K,ndling the Christmas Brand.

A part of the yule log is kept to light
the log the following year, and a song
accompanies the lighting of this brand:
Kindle the Christmas brand and then
Till sunset let it burne;
Which quenched, then lay it up agen,
Till Christmas next returne.
Parts must be kept wherewith to tend
The Christmas log next yeare;
And where it is safely kept the f1end
Can do no mischief there.
The last two lines refer to popular
superstition that where this brand is
placed to remain till the next year no
harm can come, and in France it is
believed that it keeps away the pesti-
lence.

The hen is an innocent looking fowl,
but sometimes she is a base deceiver.
That is when she shares the food pro-
vided for her fruitful sisters, but lay
no eggs to pay for it. Hitherto there
has been no sure and expeditions way
to pick out the tramp hen from a large
flock, but the X-ray affords test
which has already been applied in at
least one instance.
Mr.. Rudolph Spreckels, of Caiifor-
MIA, son Of the sugar king, owns great
poultry farm. He has ten thousand
hens; and since the proportion of ster-
lie or non-egg- bearing hens is as one to
five, it recently occurred to him that
he was supporting not less than two
thousand in idleness and luxury.
Mr. Spreckels thereupon argued that
if the Rontgen ray could locate stray
buttons and vagrant fish bones in the
human anatomy. it should serve to
make hen give up her secrets. Two
scientific experts were called in, and
they experimental on dozen chickens
OF these eight were found to contain
eggs. The other four were barren. A
post-mortem examination confirmed
the diagnosis.
Then an X-ray was established at
that ranch, and at last accounts the
ten thousand hens were being revealed
in their true characters at the rate of
thirty al hom. There IS glut in the

miles from Caldwell. Just at present
dozen or more men are at work put

which will ply up and down the wind

and health seekers. An electric rail
road, it is said, will be constructed this
fall, starting from Caldwell, the start
ing point of substantially all legitimate
enterprise. Ar. Glenn, of this city,

Subscription books are being prepared
and will be sent to the local unions,
and it is expected that very consider
able fund will be raised in short time,
and that the work ON the construction
of the building will soon commence.
The question of separation from the
American Labor Federation was con-
sidered and, by large majority it was
decided that the Western Federation of
Miners should continue to remain in
the larger and older organization as
heretofore. The bylaws were so amend
ed as to take in other examinations
otherwise than strictly underground
miners. For instance, mill men and
employees on top of ground, while be-
longing to separate unions locally, are
recognized by the Federation and have
all the rights and privileges of under
ground workers. Mr. Bennett was ell
