EDITORIAL RRESpONDENCE.

Columbia, Sept. ll.~-An esteemed
citizen, who signs himself US viii
Smith, cuts clipping from my corrc-
spondcncc and sonds it to the Office post
marked Columbia, in which he takes
exception to my reference to Attorney
General Bcllinger as General Bellin-
ger" and writes: SIS it not time to
stop these scnselcss titles? When was
he general? What did he commando"
We do not know Mr.. viii Smith and
really do not sec why any one should
take exception to giving people titles.
The State law fixes the title Of the At.
torncy General just us it does that OF
Governor, and we only left of the word
"Attorney," us has been the custom
for many years. We regret that it
should have annoyed Mr.. Will Smith,
but there are other things that people
can command besides armies. Mr..
Bellinger is commanding the legal dc.
partment Of the State, and in the par
ticular reference in my correspondence
to General Bcllingcr, he is command
ing the suits against Col. Neal, or we
should say Mr.. Neal. We really agree
with Mr.. Will Smith, that Il great
many OF these titles are meaningless
and prefer to be called plain mister.
However, in this case the title was
properly applied.

The Ncwbcrry dispcnsary matter did
not get further than the beer privilege.
1t was rumored that certain charges
would be preferred against the county
board in the matter of the recent cleo
tion, but when the test came, nothing
was said. | presume for want Of proof
People should be careful how they talk
and make charges, unless they know
what they arc talking about. The beer
dispcnsary, however, was taken up and
the petition lUr its removal granted
AS there has been considerable talk
and misunderstanding about this peti-
ton, | will secure copy Of it and send
it for publication on Friday. | am
sure, however, as have before stated,
that the petition only asked the loca-
ton be changed, and that the board
was not asked to close up the establish
mcnt. The investigation has resulted
in good. All beer privileges arc to he
closed and that is one OF the best
things done by the State Board.
But for the investigation of the
Newbcrry case this action might not
have been taken, certainly not Just
now. There is no use to have these
beer privileges, and | do not believe
they were intended in the framing of
the dis3cnsury law. II we arc to have
the dispensary law, it is better not to
mix it with privileges. Wherever
these beer privileges have been tried,
they have been the cause OF moro or
less friction. Beer can be sold from
the dispcnsary just as we'll rs whiskcy,
and then the dispenser does not depend
on the sale for his pay. He works on
Il salary.

The story of love is as old as the world,
and as all embracing as the universe It
furnishes the sentiment fol- all romauces-

The novelist considers it wholly from the
sentimental, intellectual SIDE but there is
another aspect even more important-thc
physical side. Sentimental love between
men and women leads to close physical as

children. And so health must be consid-
cred. weak, sick1y head -achev, back
achey woman cannot be a good, helpful
wife. She cannot bear healthy, happy
children. She cannot give her children
the proper care and training.
A sick woman has no right to marry,

But no woman need be sick unless aft.

In the church, tastefully decorated
with an abundance Of evergreens, re-

First Baptist Sunday school last even

cial programme and entertainment.
An hour before the beginning of the
programme the audience began to ar

announced every seat was filled.
The principal decorations were, of
course. the trees-every bough of
which was laden with choice preseats
for the little ones. Suspended between

The trees We're covered with tinsels
and trinkets, which reflected the light
of the incandescent lamps very artis-
tically. Owing to the fact that much
intiammable material was used in the
decorations, no candles We're lighted.
An excellent programme, which was
arranged and conducted under the di-
rection of the ladies of the church, was
rendered and merited special mention.

PRISONERS EAT TURKEY.
Twenty Eight Inmates of the County Jai
Have Good Dinner.

Christmas in Jail isn't such a bad thing
after all when one has a dinner such as
Sheriff Conley served yesterday to the e
involuntary guestssin his hotel. OF course
his dinner wasn't in the same class with
that Manager Reynolds sat before his
guests. There was no Manhattan cocktail
as an appetizer, no Blue Points, no deli
cate fish from the Southern coast, no
plum pudding and no rich, ripe old cheese;
no strawberry short cake, no champagne
punch-but then it was good and far bet
ter than many sat down to.
The appetizer was unnecessary. There
are but two meals day in the jail.
1t was shortly after o'clock yesterday
afternoon when the dinner was served.
At that time all the prisoners were as
sembled in the big corridor across which
ran two tables An electric bell out in the
sheriffs office rang, giving notification
that the cook was ready to pass out the
dinner. To the sheriff himself fell the
duty of responding, for the office force.

Following the dishes came, in great
pans, the eatables. First there was roast
turkey, lots of it. done to a nice, golden
color. Then mountains of mashed pota-

a stack of apple pies. cut of which was
laid at each place. Finally there came big
buckets of coffee, rich and brown which

In the female department just across a
narrow hall from the big cage, Mrs Rody
was presiding over a similar scene. Mrs
Rody, by reason of her long experience in
Jail life and her matronly ways. usually
runs things in that department.. Her
guests, however, We're few. There are but
three women in jail and one of these, Mrs.

CHRISTMAS WITH POLICE
Despite the Good Cheer Fractures
of the Law Were Few,
TIM SULLIVAN IN JAIL
He Returns to the Cells for His Old
Ofense OF Trying to Terrorize
the Bad Lands-Other
Offenders

Tim Sullivan's ambition 10 be the terror
him in the city jail. He spent his Christ
mas there specializing as to what would
happen to him when he faces the police
court to-day
Tins particular offense this time con-
siste in trying to create riot in Main
vile bagnio. The last time but one he
did create a riot and was slashed across
the countenance with a razor for his
pains. Promptly on getting out he went
across the track again and tried to start
something. Fifty dollars fine and two lee
lures that were fifty more each was the
result. Then he promised Judge Kennedy
he would be good and would abstain from
evil track crossing. How well he has kept
his promise is evidenced by his present
condition. He anticipates bad quarter
of an hour when he goes into court.
Will Higgins Christmas jag was of the
destructive order. 1t was acquired Christ
mas eve and inspired him with desire to
break things. Over in the bad lands,
where Higgins secured it, everything but
the windows are too tough to break so
the glass front of Joe Benzler's Germania
saloon had to be sacrificed. Higgins made
it look as if a lyddite shell had been doing
business there. For this sin Night Chief
O'Bren and Officer ingalls, put Higgins
in the boogie house, where he ate his
Christmas dinner.
There is no story connected with the
case of Thomas Peterson, arrested for be-
ing drunk and disturbing the peace. He
was simply, soddenly, disreputably drunk
and brutally noisy when officer Bozanitz
corralled him.
A man who did not give his name
found himself drunk yesterday, realized
that he belonged to jail and went there.
From his dress and appearances he is en-
ployed in the ore bins He tried to tell
a story of having been robbed of slO6,
but sleep overcame him as he sat in a
chair. 1t was Christmas and the glow of
the Yuletide charity was in the hearts of
the officers, so they did not put him in
Jail He had his sleep out and went away
greatly refreshed.

NOT A ONE WENT HUNGRY
No Cases of Destitution in Ana
conda on Christmas.
CHARITY OF A RICH MAN
at His Instance Every Poor Family Was
Sought Out and Supplied With Pro-
visions and Christmas GIFTS
for Children,

No poor families in Anaconda failed
to have merry Christmas yesterday.
Is there another city in the country
where the same was true?
Unknown to the bulk of Anaconda
population there is a systematic meth
cd of distributing charity in this city.
It is under the direction of the Ep-
worth League of the Methodist church
and D. r. McRae, who has charge of
what the league calls it's mercy and
help work, has direct supervision. He
keeps informed of ali cases of desti-
tuition and monthly distributes a large
amount in charity.
This work keeps him in touch with
the poor people. Hence it was that
several years ago when generous citi-
zens of Anaconda wanted to dispense
Christmas charity they put the work
in his hands.
This year one of those same gener-
Gus citizens notified Mr. McRae and
J. A. DUNLAP of the Presbyterian
church that he wanted them to seek
out all the poor families in Anaconda
and give them a happy Christmas.
They have done so and have disbursed
between $500 and $500, all of which has
been paid cheerfully by the gentle
man named, who is surprised that the
sum was no greater, for last year he
gave $1,000 and another gentleman
gave $500 for the same purpose.
Less than 60 families were found by
the modern Saints Nicholas who had
charge of disbursing the good things.
Last year they found 104 These fig
ures show conclusively that there is
less restitution than there was a year
ago.
A week ago last Sunday Messrs. Nc
Rae and Dunlap began their work
They made thorough canvass of the
city. calling at lis homes where they
had reason to believe gifts would be
acceptable, and yet they found only
so odd cases where their aid was re-
quired.
These cases for the most part were
widows or grass widows with families.
Their names and addresses were care
fully noted and on Friday and Satur-
day wagons made the rounds distribut
ing the goods. A large quantity of
groceries, including several luxuries
that usually do not grace the boards
of poor people. meats and other sup
plies went to each house. In addition
there was separate gift for each child
in the family.
After the work was all done and
after the gentlemen had made a thor
cugh investigation they were convinc-
ed that absolutely not a family in the
city was in want or without good
Christmas dinner yesterday.
All this distribution, of course, was
apart from the regular charity work
of the Epworth League and was a spe-
cial offering from the gentleman men,
toned in the foregoing. He has made
it imperative that his name be not
made known. as he has no desire to do
his giving in public.
