The Lutheran Sunday school of Union
town held its Christmas service on Christmas
eve. The audience, which filed the church.
was well pleased with the well rendered pro-
gram, The Saviour of the World. The
church was decorated with holly wreaths and
nicely trimmed tree. The music was bright
and well executed by The choir and school,
with George Englar at the organ.
The children of the infant class, trained by
Miss Clay Mering and Miss Florence Weaver,
acquitted themselves nobly in song and reel
tation. Each member of the school was pre-
sented with a pound of pure candy and an
orange.

few neat speeches, presented the following
individual gfts-Longfellow's Poems to Miss
Florence Weaver, by the scholars of the in

1t was mother, YES dear mother
Can we help but shed tear"
Yes we miss her oh we miss her
When we see her vacant chair:
And how sad the room is without her.
For there is no mother there.
How we loved her, yes, we loved her
All, no earthly tongue can tell;
But the angels now have called her
Up to Heaven with them TO dwell.
By HUSBAND AND CIIIIDEEN.
Farewell dear siSter-in-law, Il long farewell.

Till we are raised with thee to dwell

But is she dead? No, no, she lives.

The Spanish government suggests that the
United States government could best USE It's
good offices in securing a speedy end of the
war in Cuba by stopping flbustering eXpedi-
tons leaving the United States to aid the

The Crisfed Leader, a Republican paper of
Somerset county, thus truthfully sizes up the
Republican party of Baltimore
Judging from the recent action of the Master
ties in Baltimore, they want to run the whole
State. And at this distance from the scene and
from what gather from the papers, it seems that
the Grand Old Party in Baltimore is controlled by
the worst elements We regret that this is the
because fear the charter for Baltimore is in
such bad hands that the representatives Of the
counties will not axe any stock in it,
