CHRISTMAS AFTERMATH.


Some Casualties, Some Reflections and
Some Other Things.
Although the holidays are only
fairly begun the supreme festival
day has passed and the city is
beginning to wear an air of sober
business, having emerged from
the spectacular. The delicious
delirium of intoxication has faded
into an irridescent dream. Some
yet remain who now and then
''take something" with which to
irrigate the dryness of decline,
but those who think "the best of
life is but intoxication" are in a
decided minority. The great fire.
works. firewater combination
played star engagement and its
popularity was greater by far
this season than in several
lengths of Christmases. The ev-
olution from chaos to order was
a gradual process and there are
yet several clamps in mourning"
that will require several days to
metamorphose back to normal.

nation has been the hero of many
battles. His elder who took care
of the frewater is also the 'hero

handling of fireworks. Mrs.
Smith, wife of "stormy" Smith,
Santa Fe yard master, had one
of her hands badly burned by the
premature explosion of a sky
rocket.

mining OF that metal in Mexico. Mr.. Reed
was president OF a national bank IN

banking friends by adopting populism. He
was delegate to the st. Louis convention.
