Christmas at the Aims House.

Christmas services at the Aims House were
nostponed this wear until after the College re-
opened, in order that the young men OF the
Y. NJ. c. A., who so faithfully visit the IN
mates and hold services for them dnrlng the
year. might be present. This was done win
the full consent and wish of the inmates them
selves, and so, on the afternoon of January 3,
the committee in charge, accompanied by
some interested friends, met the assembled
inmates and held short service in the room
set aside for the Sunday services, and dlslrlb-
uted the gifts which the generosity OF KIND
friends enabled us to provide for them. These
consisted of warm shirts, and to those who can
sew, material to make up for themselves, rlb'
bons and bottles of pertumery to the women;
socks, handkerchief aud tobacco to the men,
and TO each one in addition a box OF contec-
tiOnery, and a bag containing an orange, APP
ple. pear. banana, dates and small cakes.
Baskets of fruit were given to the sick, and to
one man. an invalid, a four months subscrp-
ton to daily paper, to help pass away the
tedious hours of the winter. Olher small ar
tces, such as needles, thread and little com
forts which we found were needed were also
added to the packages, each of which con-
tanned pretty Christmas card, the gilt OF a
friend. Our service consisted OF bright Christ
mas carols, PRAYER bv Mr.. Bartlett, OF the
! College, responsive scripture reading, led by
| Mr. Kidd, and short talk on the lesson OF the
Christmas time by MIR. H. H. Price, of the
Seminary; vocal Duet, ''Sleep, Holy Babe, "
by Misses NJ. b. Shelman and Mamie Kin,
| ker, the Lords prayer recited in concert and
the Mizpah bencdiction. To the many kind
friends who from year to year have aided us
! financially, we return our sincere thanks.
Without this help we conld not possibly give
this annual treat to those whose poverty and
heIplessness has driven them to seek shelter
| in the Aims House. In their name, and at
their request. we take this means of thanking
each and every one, including the kind and
generous friend in far away Cuba, not only
for the money given, but for the words OF en-
couragement and sympathy in our efforts to
carry a little sunshine into their lives. While
there are not as many inmates AS in former
years, there are still some of the old men and
women to whom we have ministered during
the past seven years, and others who have
filed the places of those who have passed tc
their eternal rest, and we can truthtully say
that their wants are simple, their gratitude
Sincere Our Sunday afternoon service is
held regularly every Sunday afternoon at three
O'Clock, and we would be glad TO welcome

sympathy and interest to any OF our services

LATE DANIEL E. ROOT.
A Native of Carroll Who Won Name and
Power In Chicago'S Politics.

Mr.. Daniel E. Root, native of Uniontown,
this county, died at his home in Chicago, Hi
nois, recently. He was prominent in Demo
cratic politics. He was "a years old, and a
son of the late Basil Root, who was clerk to the
County Commissioners from 1880 to l945.
Mr. Root left Carroll about 40 years ago. A
widow survives him, but no children. Of his
political career, the Chicago Journal says:
during the entire period of his residence
IN Chicago Mr. Root lived in what is now
known as the Fourth ward. While not seek
ing Office himself, Mr.. Root early entered into
the activities ofpohtical life. He was a stanch
Democrat, and, owing to his great popularity
and his astuteness, he soon became aileader.
His influence spread until he dominated they
party in Chicago. His word was law and 1t
was obeyed with alacrity. In the old days he
was political Warwick. Scores of men owed
their sminsnce in official life to him. 1t was
often said that he brought out De Witt c.
Cregier, and that to him was due Mr.. Creger's
elevation to the highest position within the
gift of the people of Chicago. Mr.. Cregier' $
Reputation as the father of Chicagos splendid
water system made him desirable mayoralty
timber, and Mr.. Root astutely put him for
ward, the polls confirming his discernment.
In 1885 Mr.. Root ran for alderman of the
Fourth ward against Martin B. Madden. The
ward was, normally, 5000 Republican, but
Mr.. Root was defeated by only 210 votes.
Mr.. Root was elected 10 membership in the
County Board by 10000 plurality, running
ahead of his ticket When President Cleve-
land was in Chicago, in 1893, to start the ma
chinery of the Worlds Fair, Mr.. Root formed
one of his escort as a member of the county
administration. Eight years ago Mr.. Root
was honored with election to the presidency
of the Cook County Democracy as recogni-
ton of his services to the party. Mr.. Root
was member of Abraham Lincoln Post, G.
A. R., fact of which he was always very
proud

Baltimore The number ofmen now mustered
in are 40, with bright prospects Of soon adding

efforts being made to get the company moved
to Westminster, especially If the captain OF
the company is elected out Of the Westminster
members. The facts are almost visible, as the
actions show it; but we hope that such Will
never be the case, as this place certainly de-
serves the honor of having the company sta.
toned here, on account of the earnest and
continuous efforts in holding the company to-
gerher as long as they did under the trying
circumstances. In recent years all efforts
failed to raise a military company II West
