PEOPLE HOPEFUL AMIDST Their SORROWS

Galveston, Texas, Sept. 13.-The follow
Ing editorial appears in today's News:
cat the first meeting of Galveston's
citizens Sunday afternoon after the great
hurricane, for the purpose of bringing
order out of chaos, the sentiment express
ed was that Galveston had received an
awful blow. The loss of life and property
is appalling and so great that it required
several days to form anything like cor
rect estimate. With sad and aching
hearts, but with resolute faces, the SEN
timent of the meeting was that out of
the awful chaos Of wrecked homes and
wrecked business Galveston must rise
again.
1.-THE sentiment was not that of bury
the dead and give up the ship but rath-
err bury the dead, succor the needy, ap-
peal for aid from the charitable world
and then start resolutely to work to mend
the broken chains. In many cases the
work of upbuilding must begin over. In
other cases, the destruction is only par
tial. No, the sentiment was Galveston
will, Galveston must survive and fulfill
her glorious destiny. Galveston shall rise
again.
"Galveston having been isolated since
the storm of last Saturday night, the
stricken citizens of the town have not
been informed as to the thrill of horror
which went over the world when the news
of the catastrophe was spread. The AS
sociated Press brings the CHEEKY news
that in every town and city in the Unit
ed States commercial, religious and
charitable bodies have organized into re-
lief committees. At present thousands
of dollars and hundreds of cars of sup
plies are enroute and will reach the suf-
ferers of Galveston just as soon as it is
possible to boat them across the bay. II
the desoation here has been awful, the
sympathy and humanity of a great nation
has been ample and very soon the local

CHRISTMAS PARTIES
How the Worlds Greatest
 Rulers Will Spend the Day.
The White House Dinner, the Giving of Presents and the Festivities at the Royal Courts of England and Germany.

Washington, D. C., Dec. 24-The president and Mrs. Mckinley will spend Christmas surrounded by a small, but lively party of young nieces and other young relatives. After the breakfast will come the distribution of gifts to friends, relatives and members of the household. Each member of the White House service will be re- membered with a pretty souvenir from the chief executive and his wife. In the forenoon church will be attended, in accordance with the presidents $ custom, and then will come the old fashioned Christmas dinner. Owing to the large number of large turkeys that have arrived at the White House from various parts of the country, the chef may have some difficulty in making a choice. One of the largest of the gob blers will be selected, however, and the remainder will be distributed among the married employees of the executive mansion.

THE KAIsER'S FEAsTs.

Berlin, Dec. 24-The Kaiser's Christ mas party this year is unusually large and the accommodations of the com modious palace at Potsdam are taxed to provide for the score of relatives who have arrived there for the holi
 day celebration. Tonight, after din
 ner the big Christmas tree in the ball room will be lighted up and the gifts will be distributed. Besides the one big tree in the center of the room, there are other smaller trees ranged abOu,, and all are laden down with gifts. One tree is for the emperor and empress, a second for the personal attendants and guests, and a number of smaller trees for the children. Before repair- ing to the gala room, the imperial fam fly and guests will go to the upper rooms of the palace to witness the dis tribution of gifts among the servants. The family dinner will follow. This is an event of events for the youthful HchenzCllerns, as it is one of the ex- ceptional occasion when they are per mitteI to dine with their parents. The Kaiser is a. marvellous dinner-giv6r, and hts Christmas eve feasts are re- markable for the variety of the menu. of National dishes. Roast beef and turkey occupy prominent place on the board, and he also has sourkraut, sausages, and for great central dish goose stuffed with chesnuts. The dessert usually consists of cheese cake, baked apples and sweets.

as the Loring property. It was an adobe building, of course, and the last of 1t was recently torn down to make room for the new Ellingson block on the south side of Washington street Shortly after an adobe house was built somewhere near the present site of rhalheimer's Central hotel.
 What is believed to have been the next house built, and the oldest one now standing in the city, is the adobe structure on the northeast corner of First and Monroe streets. It was put up and has served a great deal of the time since as a dance house and sa- loon. It has been remodeled and re- plastered at different times until it's ancient appearance is somewhat con- cealed. About the same time a build ing was erected at the corner of First and Washington streets and some of the old walls are Still hidden beneath the later covering, of what is now Goldberg Brothers store.
 Phoenix then had a boom and all most before it could be realized there were fifty or hundred houses built and in course of construction. The first one, built by Captain Hancock, 
 finished early in 1871, hence the pres ent holiday season is practically the thirtieth anniversary of the founding of the city. Let those who are here today, those who have made fame and fortune for themselves, those who have founded>homes, raised prosperous families and whose cup of joy runneth over at the present Christmastide, answer if the labors of the pioneers were in vain, and if their building was not better than they knew.
 After the town was once fairly started there came a reaction, and for a year or two half the houses in it were vacant. Then came another change for the better, the town filled up and building was renewed. By 1880 the town looked like an oasis in vast desert. Growth was gradual and slow till about the time of the advent of the NJ & P. railroad in 1887. Then there was a considerable of a boom and many additions were laid out. This was followed by another period of stag nation till early in the present decade when hard work and constant advertis- ing and the subsequent cons struction of the s. F., P. & P. railroad brought comparatively permanent prosperity and a steady and rapid growth has fol- lowed. Today, Phoenix is perhaps as well known as any city of its size in the great west and it is reaching out for first place in this part of the greatest and best country in the world. But there are yet thousands who have never heard of Phoenix and all who enjoy present prosperity owe it to themselves to build for the future as the pioneers planned for the present.

London, Dec. 24.-Though denied the use of Guildhall by the corporation au- thorities, Repnold's Newspaper, the great radical organ, this evening gives its customary annual Christmas feast for the sandwich men, of London.

The sub scription list this year was headed by a check for $50, received from the Prince of Wales, accompanied by cordial letter, in which his royal high ness expressed a warm sympathy for the sandwich men" An appeal to the queen for a contribution to the dim ner fund, was answered by a letter from Sir Fleetwood Edwards, her ma jesty's secretary, expressing the regret of the queen that she was unable to patronfZe the fund, but adding that the queen fully sympathizes with all such undertakings that would help to cheer the lives of her jess fortunate subjects

Manila, Dec. 24.-The federal party fc- decided upon a new organization, ard tody published in the Filipino ev- cning papers an address to Filipinos.
