Presents at Trinity.

The members of the Sundays school
of Trinity Methodist Church enjoyed
their Christmas celebration and re-
ceived the Christmas gifts of the school
last night. The exercises took place
in the lecture room of the church,
which was filled with the officers,
teachers and pupils of the school and
their friends. o.
A delightful little sketch preceded
the distribution of gifts. 1t was de-
scriptive of the repentance of a stern
father, who had told his children that
Santa Claus was myth and sent them
early to bed. He overhears their dis
cussion of his action and the prayers
that they make for the appearance of
Santa Claus and his gifts. Then he
provides for them more bountifully
than they had hoped for in their fond
est dreams of the kindly Christmas
saint.
AS the finale of the sketch ap-
preached a curtain that extended
across the platform was drawn aside
and the Christmas tree, sparkling and
glowing with numberless vari-colored
electric lights, was revealed. From the
tree the presents for the, children were
handed out.

AS GUEST OF NATION.
The King of Siam Wants to Visit
This Country.

From the Washington Post.
His majesty the King of Siam wants
to visit the United States. His pro-
gramme is to come as a guest of the
nation. Congress is asked to furnish
him with a royal escort and pay all of
his bills.
The opportunity to welcome a royal
parsonage in proper state is so rarely
afforded that something more than a
ripple of interest was created yester-
day when Senator Frye, as acting
chairman of the Committee on Foreign
Relations, introduced in the Senate a
resolution authorizing the President of
the United States to extend to his ma
jesty an invitation to visit this coun-
try as a guest of the nation. Another
provision of the resolution appropriate
ed a blank sum out of the national
treasury for the purpose of enabling
the President of the United States to
extend suitable hospitality to the King
of SIAM"
The document which Senator Frye
submitted to the Senate in connection
with this resolution were quite inter-
esting They stated that Hamilton
King. the American minister at Bang
kok. had been unofficially informed
that the Siamese king would be
pleased to visit America in the near
future" and Mr.. Kings formal and
official letter in which he commune
Gated this fact asserted that the visit
of his majesty would undoubtedly add
TO the intimate and cordial relations
now existing between the two coun-
tries. Far more entertaining, however.
than this formal communication was
lengthy epistle in which Minister King
set forth some facts about the royal
rulers proposed visit which were not
referred to in his other document.
His Majesty's Episodes i'm Europe.
Minister King took occasion to recall
in the first place, that while his ma
iesty was on tour through Europe
1son1e circumstances occurred which
gave rise to much newspaper comment
and no end of misunderstanding.
While these circumstances are pot
specifically mentioned, it viii be re-
membered that they were of nature
that did, as Mr.. King states, furnish
lively talk in the newspapers. II is
against a repetition of this comment
and Misrepresentation says Minister
King, that his royal highnesss wishes to
guard himself. He evidently does not
wish TO trust himself TO American
newspapers unless he comes as the
nations guest, for, says Minister King.
'he is man of fine feeling and rare
caution"
In further discussing just how the
King Of Slam shall come to the United
states. the American minister at Bang
kok remarks that II is easy enough
10 arrange visits between monarchs,
but that his royal highness appreciates
that coming to a republic is a very diff
ferent thing He would be glad 10
come" writes Minister King, lin pri-
waite capacity. for the sake of the edu-
cation Il would be TO him and his peo-

THE BEST RELIGION.
Discussed by Rev. DR.. I. p. Mendes
in Temple Mickva Israel.

Discussed by Rev. DR.. /. p. Mendes
in Temple Mickva Israel.
Rev. 1. P. Mendes delivered. at the
Temple Mickva Israel, last night, a
lecture on Which Is the Best Relig-
ion postponed from last week. The
basis of the lecture is the story of the
Jewish Minister of a Mohammedan
Prince, who, by a plot of his enemies,
was commanded by his master to say
which was the better religion. that of
the Jews or that of the Mohammedans.
He extracted himself from the difficult
~ by an apt story.
According to this story a merchant
is presented by a friend with a ring
possessed of such talismanic qualities
that its wearer would secure and main
tain the virtues of truth, generosity,
wisdom and purity. The merchant had
two duplicates of the ring made and.
shortly before his death, gives each of
his three sons a ring and tells each
that he has been given the original
After the fathers death the sons
compare the fortunes left them and
each counts as among his treasures
the original ring. But there being but
one ring possessed of the virtues and
the sons being unable to detect which
it is, they go to a sage, state the case,
and ask of him which is the original
ring. The wise man declares that only
after death will they know, for then
will be determined who has possessed
the virtues ascribed to the ring
So continued the narrator of the
tale, there are many religions in the
world, and God Almighty has caused
each to have followers. but not until
after death will it be learned which is
the true religion.
There is no question, said DR. Mendes
that has caused greater curiosity OF
| caused greater animus than this ques-
| ton of Which is the best religion?'
! Those who have studied religions will
require but little originality of mind tC
so change and adapt the teachings al
! them that they are able to present tc
the world what they call a new re-
ligion. In this way Mahomet made q
religion to suit his own ambitions.
The mild and unpretentious man Of
| Nazareth preached a religion of true
Judaism and drew His inspiration from
the laws of Moses, and lived His life
according to these laws.
In summing up his conclusions tn;
| speaker said that religion after all wal
mainly a question of birth, teaching
and environment; and that the bes
religion is that which will inspire ever!
human being to make him live a lif,
of truth, generosity wisdom and pur
ity; and teach a broad humanity tina
will fold in its embrace all being
created in the likeness of God: ant
that will make for the universal broth
erhood of man.
That and that alone, he said, is tn
best religion for the world to accept, t
inculcate and to perpetuate. and sue
religion the Jew, the Christian an,
the Mohammedan can each do a par
to establish.

FIND BABY IN CHRISTMAS MAIL.
Child Was Sound Asleep in Basket
That Had No Address on IL.

From the New York Press.
Indianapolis, Dec. 25.-While the
clerks in the Union Station postoffice
were asserting the Christmas pack
ages which had been mailed there dur
ing the evening, at midnight last night,
they came across a basket that had
no address and no stamps on it. No
one remembered having accepted such
a package and this led to an investi-
cation. When the covering of the
basket was removed a bottle of milk
dropped out, and still further investiga-
ton revealed a boy baby, supposed to
be a week or ten days old, sleeping
soundly between a lot of flannels and
baby clothes of the finest possible tex
ture. t7l
The infant wass turned over to the
police and taken to the Orphans Home.
There is no clue to the mother or to
the manner in which the basket got
among the packages in the sub-station.
1t is surmised that the mother, or the
person who deposited it there, reached
in through the window while the backs
of the employees were turned or per-
haps entered the room under similar
conditions and deposited the basket
among the Christmas packages.
But for the fact that no address was
noticed the little one might have been
sent out with the holiday mail The
police saw woman near the sub-sta-
ton window during the evening, but
there was a crowd around, many OF
those in it carrying packages, and no
suspicion was excited.

CLAIMS HE WAS BEATEN.
j. III. M. White Says Attempt Was
Made to Rob Him.


]. H. M. White reports having been
held up and assaulted on Wheaton
street Thursday by three white men.
White saw Justice Jones yesterday
and had warrants issued for men
known to him as Minitree, Murrell
and Crosby. He said that they jumped
in his wagon and assaulted him. -
White was driving on Wheaton
street when two men jumped on his
wagon and demanded Christmas pres
ents, saying that a dollar apiece would
satisfy them According to the COM
plainant, they We're not intoxicated,
although it was quite evident that
they had been drinking. He claims
he had $15615 and that it was only
saved through strategy.
The prosecutor says that a negro
woman who does his washing saw
what was happening and rushed up,
declaring she would assist the men in
robbing White. White said he handed
the woman the money and that she
ran to his home on Waldburg street
and Waters road and handed it to his
wife. White did not report the mat
ter at police headquarters. but went
to the magistrate and had the war
rants charging assault issued.

Gave and Received Gifts.

The Sunday-school of Wesley Monu-
mental Church held it's Christmas cele-
bration last night. The Sunday-schooI
room was crowded with teachers, mem
bers of the school and parents and
friends, and all enjoyed the exercises.
The delight of the children was great
and they were infinitely amused by
the quips and antics of Santa Claus.
BY their own great joy the children
contributed to the pleasure of theiI
elders.
Beautiful decorations We're displayed
on the stage, above which hung
Christmas bells, which were made to
ring in unison during the exercises.
Gifts were distributed by Santa CT aus
among the children, each receiving a
toy, fruit and candy. AS the children
came forward, they left their presents
for the poor, thus experiencing the joy
of giving as well as that of receiving.
Prayer by the pastor Rev. ed. F.
Cook responsive readings, a Scripture
reading and a talk by the pastor made
up the programme of the exercises.

The programme of the Kings jour

ing across the United States to Wash

gest a special train, but this would

does state, however, that if Congress
fails to pass an appropriation for Civ
ing his majesty a national entertain
tainment, there are a great many pub
lic-spirited men in the United States
who would be glad to contribute to a
fund for this purpose. Among others
he mentions Gen. Sickles of New York.
and Rev. Daniel F. Bradley of Grand
Rapids, Mich. The latter. it seems,
was born in Siam and was the init
mate friend of the King of Siam until
he was % years of age. When Minis
ter King went to Bangkok, he carried
a personal letter, written in Siamese,

Siam. who sent back a personal letter
in reply 1t is quite evident, there
fore, that if his royal highness comes
TO the United States he will find at
least one man with whom he is ac-
quainted.
Minister Kings letter goes into a
great many other details, such as the
railway construction and sewer and
bridge building which Americans might
control in Siam if the King was treat
ed as the guest of the nation. This is,
of course, very practical view of Sc
curing some return for the money to
be expended in paying the royal bills,
but it is doubtful if it appeals to Con-
gress. The general impression yester-
day seemed to be that if the King of
Siam wanted to make a royal tour.
he was welcome and would be protect
ed from the assaults of a curious and
King hunting mob. but that it was
| hardly the business of the President
of the United States to begin inviting
monarchs, even of a little kingdom like
Siam. The question, however, is to be
fully considered by the Committee on
Foreign Relations, and if the King
| is invited, he VIII be given the best
time of his life.
