CHRISTMAS CAROL.

Hark! those strains, so sweetly falling,
On that festal morn!
To our hearts are they recalling,
Christ, our King, was born.
He has come to give blessing
To the poor, the sad;
He has come with kind caressing,
Making children glad.
Chorus:
Hank. those strains so sweetly falling,
On that festal morn;
To our heart they are recalling,
Christ, our King, was born.
HE we to the lowly manger,
At the village inn;
Let us greet the wondrous stranger
Saving all from sin;
Let us bring a royal treasure,
Like the wise of old;
Love sincere and without measure,
Better far than gold.
Chorus.-Hark, etc.
What though wintry winds are blow
ing
Leaves from off the tree;
And no more the flocks are lowing,
On the upland lea;
Christ each little lamb is tending,
Folding II with care;
From the storms of life defending.
From its chilling air.
Chorus.-Hark, etc.
May those angels, at the dawning,
Singing in the sky,
Ever with kindly warning
Bid the tempter Fly.
When no more on earth is given
JOY like this today,
May such messengers Of heaven
Bear orr souls away.
Chorus.-Hark, efs.

We love little children. They are
the future. No period of life is more
full of interest than that Of childhood
We watch the expanding mind of q
fine boy as we do the unfolding OF a
flower. Childhood is the primrose sea-
son Of life; and when we see clus-
ter OF little innocent urchins around
the hearth. If our wishes could be re-
allied all their after days should be
those of sunshine and happiness. We
like children and sympathize in all
their little griefs and share in all their
hilarious and boisterous merriment. In
this season of festivity they should
never be forgotten. Send them early
to bed on Christmas eve,on good terms
with themselves and all the rest of the
world, and then fill their suspended
stockings for the bounties of st. Mich
olas with trinkets and toys, and give
them good and useful articles OF the
season. Oh, the pleasures Of these Of
fees! None but a parent ever did or
ever can conceive them. Look at their
bright and shining faces in the morn
ing and read your reward in their as
constituent and gratitude. Parents,
neglect not your little folks at this
season of the year. You purchase a
large amount Of happiness at a trifiing
cost. Never be unmindful of your
duty in this respect Please your chill
dren on proper occasions and they will
please you in after life.

The next morning when Archie
rushed into the room where the Christ
mas tree stood loaded down with gifts,
he found beneath it an express wagon,
and on the wagon was beautiful red
and green sleigh, exactly like the one
he had given to Dick.
Well, Archie was very happy that
day, but he often thought of Ellen
and poor little Dick, and when the
odor of roasted turkey and mince pies
crept through the house he wondered
II they would have any Christmas din
ner.
He asked his mother about 1t as she
was brushing his hair. She only kiss
ed him for reply, but in the dining
room, where all the family from far
and near were assembled around the
table heaped with all manner OF good
things, she said:
Archie, come here and welcome
your guests" and he found himself
seated between a pretty young girl
dressed In white and very small boy
in new suit of clothes. 1t was Ellen
and her brother Dick.

Maj. Gen Jas. f. Wade, president of
the u. S. evacuation commission at
Havana has received certain instruc-
tions from President Mckinley which
seem to indicate that he will be APP
pointed military governor of western
Cuba. Gen. Greene will be governor
of the city of Havana. He has already
virtually taken hold
The u. S.-Cauadian commission is
nearing the end of its negotiations
But it is feared the reciprocity features
will prevent an agreement. The Amer
leans have made proposition show
ing what concessions they can make,
but it is said TO fall short of what the
Canadians expected. The latter will
offer counter propositions and on these
the work of the commission must rest
or fall. 1t is expected that the lumber
schedule will be the principal point of
difference.

Gen. Garcia Is Dead.

Gen. Calixto Garcia, the distin-
guished Cuban warrior and leader, and
the head of the commission elected by
the Cuban assembly to visit this coun-
try to confer with President Mckinley
and members of congress, died at the
Hotel Raleigh, at Washington, where
the commission has it's headquarters.
The sudden change from the warm
climate of Cuba, with the hardships he
had there endured, to the wintry
weather of New York and Washington
is responsible for the pneumonia which
resulted in his demise. In his dying
moments, as all through his busy and
active life, his thoughts were for his
beloved country and its people.
Gen. Garcia was 60 years of age. He
leaves an aged mother in Havana, a
wife, two daughters and two sons.
One son was with.him when he died.

WESTERN CANADA eRAIRIEs.
Future Welfare OF the Continent Lies La
Their Fertile Fields.


The rapid progress that is being
made in the settlement OF the fertile
prairies of Western Canada Is leading
to the investigation of its resources by
those interested in having provision
made for those living In the crowded
east for those who have been strug-
Cling for years on impoverished farms,
for the renter who is unable any longer
to bear up under the strain imposed by
the landlord, and for the farmer VINO,
unable to purchase farms for his sons
in his own neighborhood, has to look
around for lower priced lands. me
investigation shows that ii Is impos-
sible to meet these conditions success
fully outside of Western Canada Al
ready millions of bushels of wheat are
being grown there each year, while as
many as $4,000 head Of cattle were
shipped out this year. A representa-
tive Of The Germania, Milwaukee, one
of the leading German papers In the
United States, recently made a trip
through Manitoba, Assiniboia. Alberta
and Saskatchewan, where lie the free
government lands Of Western Canada,
and in a future issue will appear ex-
tracts from fiattering letters contribut-
ed to the Germania and other papers
by their special correspondents. AS
an inducement for immigrants to make
their homes in Canada, the Canadian
government offers 100 acres Of land
free of cost to any settler.

The United States and Spanish peace
commissioners concluded the work and
finally settled the terms of the treaty
of peace. The Spaniards are exceed
ingly bitter over the result, though
observing the forms of friendliness
and courtesy to the end. One of the
Spanish commissioners said: 1.-THE Eu-
ropean nations have made n great mis-
take is deserving Spain and leaving her
to spoliation by the brute force OF a
constituencies giant. They all know
that in the Philippines America has
taken more than she can digest She
will ultimately sell the islands to Eng
land or Germany, and when the trans
fer is attempted it will precipitate gen.
eral European strife. We have refused
to sell any island in the Carolines. We
never thought of considering an offer.
Nor have we consented to negotiate
upon any questions except those di-
rectly involved in the protocol signed
at Washington"
The Treaty is Signed.
AS soon as the treaty of peace was
engrossed the commissioners held their
final meeting and signed the document,
which contained II articles. After the
treaty had been read in both Spanish
and English two copies were passed
around the table, the commissioners
signing them in the order of their
rank; William r. Day, Senator Cush'
man X. Davis, Senator William p.

George Gray; Senior Montero Rios

A Glorious Army Order.

Major Miles has issued the fol-
owing general order to the army:
"The army is engaged in active service
tnder climate conditions which it has not
,efore experienced. That it may perform
is most difficult and laborious duties with
he least practicable loss from sickness,
he utmost care consistent with prompt
md efficient service must be rendered by
III, especially by officers. The history of
,ther armies has demonstrated that in a
lot climate abstinence from the use of in
oxicating drink is essential to continued
lealth and efficiency.
Commanding officers of all grades and
,ficers of the medical staff will note care
ully the effect of the use of such light
,everages-wines and beer-as are per-
nitted to be sold at the post and camp ex-
.hanges, and the commanders OF all in
dependent commands are enjoined to re.
trict. or entirely prohibit, the sale OF
nch beverages if the welfare OF the troops
,r the interest of the service requires
iuch action.
SIN this most important hour of the ma
ions history it is due to the government
rom all those in its service that they
hould not only render the most earnest
,fforts for its honor and welfare, but their
ull physical and intellectual force should
20 given to their public duties, uncontam-
mated by any indulgencies that shall dim,
itultify, weaken or impair their faculties
md strength in any particular. Officers
If every grade, by example as well as by
authority, will contribute to the enforce
nent of the order.
with view to avoid extreme suffering
lmong wounded horses or mules on the
ield of battle, it is hereby ordered that
veterinary surgeon, or some other person
letailed by the commanding officer, will
accompany troops in an engagement,
whose duty it will be to put an end to the
lgonies of all horses or mules that in his
Judgment are suffering to a degree requir-
ng such action on his part.

The word of the wind to the aspens

But over the hill or down in the swale
He vanished as I drew near.
asked of the quaking shadows,
questioned the shy green bird,
But the falling river bore away
The secret would have heard.
Then 1 turned to my forest cabin
In Glove of the kaaterskill;
And at dead ofnight, when the fire was low.
The whisper came to my sill.
Now know there will haunt me ever
That word of the ancient tongue,
Whose golden meaning, half OWNED,
Was.lost when the world was young.
/ know 1 must seek and seek it,
Through the wide green earth and round;
Though come in ignorance at last
To the Place of the Grassy Mound.
Yet it may be I shall find 1t,
If l keep the patience mild,
The flexible faith, the open heart,
And the calm of a little child.
