SERVICES AT ST. MARKS.
Bishop Leonard Preached Christmas
Sermon In Cathedral.

Special services n commemora.:cn
of Christmas were hald at st. Mark $
cathedral yesterday morning. The
church wa; beautifully decorated with
evergreens and ported plants, and the
singing by the full slrp..ced choir as
soul inspiring.
Bishop Abiel Leonard preached the
Christmas sermon. He said. IN part:
Today we are celebrating what was
prophesied was to come about, and
which did come about 1900 years ago.

the highest on earth peace. good Will

gle thought contained in that name,
Emanuel-meaning is with us--is what
we will consider today. 1t means that
God is with us always, and as we think
of that, our thoughts go back to Beth
lehem, and remember that the Son of
God had not where to lay his head.
But Christ was God incarnate in hui
man flesh, and the wise men brought
offerings of gold, as to a king, myrrh.

so it has been attempted to picture
Christ. but there is a vast difference
between him ard all other teachers. but
Christ lives in the religion he has
established. For this was established
his kingdom on earth and his form of
grace introduced. The apostles be-
lieved in no dead Savior, but in a living
one. What was intended was that men
should be permeated through ard

OUT AT THE FORT.
A Merry Day For the Troopers of the
Ninth Cavalry.

Ninth Cavalry.
The ninety-six troopers of the Ninth
cavalry enjoyed Christmas day in a
fashion that only husky fellows endow-
ed with healthy appetites know how to
appreciate. There were no decorations
apparent around the barracks at Fort
Douglas. but a large and generous
smile emphatically pervaded the atmos-
phere, for be it known yesterday there
was no irksome drill, no horse exercise,
but passes down town ad libitum.
First and Second Cooks Johnny Fra
zier and John Blue were the heroes of
the hour. especially at noon, when
Trumpeter Vankook inflated his cheeks
on the parade ground and the next
instant the snow-clad Wasatch range
sent back the echoes of the welcome
dinner call. The cavalry1nen responded
on the double, as recently promoted
Sergeant Taylor, who was in charge of
the mess, invited the boys to enfilade
the forces of General Roast Turkey.
The troopers rode roughshod over his
blrdship and then proceeded to rout the
aides. Rost Pork and Oyster Soup,
horse, foot and artillery: trimmings,
peach and apple pies capitulated in
short order, and then the victors pro-
ceeded to discuss the fray amid the
smoke of long filters and Key Vests
to the gurgling of the rudy juice of
the grape, aided by the contents of four
stable kegs of beer
The boys had a right merry time
while it lasted, but did not tarry to
exchange the latest barrack gag or
sing the soothing melody dedicated to
their best girl. They simply boarded
the next downtown car and proceeded
to pay their respects to the best girl
aforesaid. Those who were less fortu-
nate remained behind for stable duty
at 8 o'clock, and beguiled the time in
reading or quiet little rubber near
the stove. and sighed for a good, old
fashioned Christmas in the sunny
south.

ADVANCE TIN PLATE.
Trust Announces a Big Increase In
the Price of It's Product.

PittSburg, Pa, July 1.-THE tin plate
trust is not going to lose anything by
the Is per cent advance in wages given
its employees, who will go 10 work af-
ter a two weeks strike. Today it was
announced that the trust had advanced
prices from S3.87 to S4-37 per box of 100
pounds, standard sizes 14x2O inch plates
with corresponding advance on all 9TH
er sizes. These prices are for delivery
at mills, and do not include freight to
any point. The advance startled and
surprised nearly every person connect
ed with the tin plate market 1t was
expected by some that the settlement
of the wage scale and the granting
Of an advance to the workers would
possibly cause the company to advance
prices a trffe, but nothing like the
advance made.
Brokers contend that the advance is
out of proportion to the advance given
the wage earners and the increased cost
of raw material They say that while
the advance in wages was Is per cent
on the wage scales of last year, the
increase in labor cost on each box of
standard plates is only a few cents
In the past six months the price of
tin plate has increased over 65 per cent.
In January tin plate was selling at 81 So
per box standard size. The increase of
yesterday to S4.37 shows a total in
crease in the price of $1.72 in a little
over six months.
