santa Claus Distributes Prizes to Riders
in the Ring.

The fourteenth annual Christmas d
was held at Durland's Academy. 8 70 J.!
West Sixty-sixth street. last night aho
was a great success. The academy, which
wa ta~stefully decorated with Christmas
greens, was well filled with an appreciauve
audience and the performers were hberany
applauded for their efforts. The nrst
item on the programme was called the
grand entree, and about 100 riders, COM
manded by Mr.. Louis Parisette. rode into
the ring and circled about in a way that
was fairly dazzling to those who were
looking on. While all these riders were
m~anpuvring, Santa Claus, drawn by Tour
horses, drove into the ring. santa Wa
attended by two boys. and on the car WIN
him was a Christmas tree and many boxes
of presents. He drove around the ring
a few times bowling to every one, and men
took a position In the middle and presented
a souvenir to each lady. The ladies had TO
ride up TO the wagon to get the prize, ana
many OF the horses showed q particular
aversion to the saint Of the, season and
positively refused TO 60 near him,
After Santa Claus had retired there was
a jeu-de-barre competition. The prize
was a silver cup and II was 0 py =.
Eckerson, who succeeded In deienoin8 ms

Baron Pau Veitinghof and Mr.. Mar
shall Clapp appeared in the next lumber,
which was called Hungarian Post. Each
handled six horses. Three leaders were
abreast, behind them came two ana rhe
rider was mounted on the last horse. n
horses were handled very cleverly..
The rough riders, Messrs. Marshall Slapp,
George Rockwell, james Rabbit, Walter
Sharp. Michael lyman and Archie Mon
tieth commanded by j. X. Hegeman. DR.,
furnished n fun Of the evening.
They first rode into the ring without
saddles and did the usual rough riding
tricks. Then they had some cowboy FUN.
Their costumes were very picturesqueand
elaborate. Some picked up handkerchief
lassoed their mates. Mr.. Hegeman, who
was dressed as a Mexican, was very clever
with the lariat. Then came the pony ex-
press illustrating how the mail used TO be
carried on the Western frontier. Mr..

TO STORE NEW york WEALTH.
Personal Property Of M~nienaires 70 Ne
Kept In Newport.

PROVIDENCE, r. l.. Dec. 30 When last
summer the Industrial TRUST Company OF
this city established a branch Of its banking
business In Newport. by absorbing the
National Bank Of Rhode Island In that
city, and when William c. Whitney. Lew
p. Morton and other rich men OF New FORK
bought In 5000 shares Of Industrial Trust
Company stock at $500 a share, on a par
value Of 500, IL was not generally realized
that Newport was to become the depository
of large wealth, to be transferred from the
strong banks Of New York city.
The bank in Newport for years In the
summer season has handled much New
York money. deposited with 1t by the New
port summer colony, who used the bank a.
a medium Of exchange for the seasons
expenses. But now the bank. under the
management Of the Industrial Trust Com
pany, will soon be the storage place OF
the treasures Of many New York million
aires.
The establishing by the Industrial Trust
Company of a branch in Newport was
caused by conditions imposed on wealth
in New York State, chief OF which Is the
Inheritance Tax law.
The operation Of the Inheritance a
law diminishes he personal property OF
an estate, and occasionally causes incon-
venience by sealing the contents OF safe
deposit vaults until the representative OF
State is ready to inventory IT for the bene-
fit OF all the people. Taxation indeed, Is
the main issue with a man OF this class
1t is proving sufficient of an issue TO make
him willing to take up a legal residence in
this State. Already there have been several
cases of such change in legal residence and
In the coming months it is expected that
many more will he recorded.
Next spring the company will build a
safe deposit vault, where the jewels
of New York's society people may be kept
as free from danger of thieves and taxes
as in any place in the world.

THEFTS AFTER FIRE.
Louis windmueilcr's Store Apparently Left
Open AMI Unprotected.

On reach ing his place OF business at 20
Reade street on Monday morning of last
week Mr.. Louis Windmuller was surprised
to find doors and windows open and the
gas lighted. There had been a fire next
door at % Reade street on Sunday after
noon and the firemen broke open Mr.. Wind
muller's premises, and appear to have
left them in the state in which they were
found the following morning.
A cursory examination OF the sto OK
disclosed that several articles were missing:
a bolt Of heavy cloth. some half dozen
swords and six dozen Of the best wine.
including 'Mouton Rothschild, -Rauen-
thaler- and "Liebfrauenmilch;' cheaper
qualities were only sampled. A very ag-
~rravating loss was that Of a new overcoat
delivered for the holidays late on the
saturday afternoon before and carefully
placed in a pasteboard box on Mr. Wind
muller's desk by his tailor MIR. Wind
muller is in sore need OF this overcoat and
will be loath TO buy another. Traces that
several locks had been tried, while others
had been forced. leave no doubt OF the
character Of the persons who had been
allowed 20 enter. Whether any more goods
we're taken cannot be- determined until
account Of stock, now being taken, In COM
pleted.

premises for thirty-hve years. the place

I instantly how this happened. Answ.

promptly, sir.
Jacks comrades were in dismay,
but Jack himself was cool and smiling.
He presented arms, and then, bringing
his rifle to order, explained how he
came to wash up, and his theory about
getting into his clothes in case of an
a'arm, and then ADDED: But there was
rro alarm culnel. The rebs rushed us,
and there was no time for any band
box business. There wasn't time for
anything, and / just got into line, and
| want to ask you, culnel, right now, il
you had no clothes on, and the rebs
came at you that way, and the captain
was a-ragin' and the orderly was a-cuss-
in and the boys was a-yellin' and the
bullets was a-hyin', l ask you what
would you do, culnel? Answer plompt-
ly.'
"The colonel looked down at Jack. at.
Happy Jack, never happier than in this
crisis, and the sternness went out of
his eyes and face, and smile came as
he said; Il wouldn't have thought of
clothes, Jack. would have tried to do
my duty. (The boys remembered when
the colonel rode into a fight in dressing
gown and slippers.) Go back to your
quarters, if you can find them, and get
into your clothes just as soon as the
Lord will let you. will put your cap
tain under arrest for allowing you to
wash up in time of battle But he
didn't"

his clothes and scramble into them, but
the maneuvering and fighting that fol-
lowed carried him farther and farther
from the bushes on which his clothes
were drying.
"While the men of the company were
laughing at Jacks plight and calling
on him to dress up the fight went on,
and Jack said not word. Finally, an
other brigade took up the pursuit Of
the retreating confederates, and We
were ordered to our old position along
the river. Jack was again exultant, be-
cause he could see IN the distance his
washing taking the air and the sun,
undisturbed by confederate or bullet.
All seemed going Jacks way again,
when the colonel, not little proud of
his command, stopped to let the regi-
ment pass in review. He caught sight
of Jack, ordered the company to halt,
and Jack to step out of the ranks. He
thundered at the s.sless fellow score
of questions, winding no with: How
did you come to be in this plight, sir?
You are disgrace to the regiment and
the service. and want you to tell me

Trust to be rewarded when it's time for
your reward,
But waste no precious moments beating
blindly In the air
Calling out for blessings and for favors
from !the Lord
Just a llttlee duty done is worth a life of
solemn prayer.

GENERAL LOGAN'S CLOSE CALL
Canteen Shot from His Hand While
Taking a Drink of Contraband
Applejack.

Several old soldiers were sitting in
the lobby of the Palmer house relat-
ing their war experiences, says the
Chicago Tribune, when one of them
turned to George Burghardt, who
served for two years as one of the
escort of Gen. John A. Logan, and
said: Come, George, tell us that can
teen story"
at amt much of story" he re-
piled. 1T was in the early summer
of 1862 and our regiment was on it's
Champion hill and gone into camp to
the left of Joe Davis home. Along
about dusk Gen. Logan sent out a
squad to scout around and see what
was going on. We came upon a set
tiers cabin which had been deserted.
Some of the boys, including myself.
went inside where we found several
kegs of applejack. OF course we all
filled our canteens and incidentally
put little under our belts. An hour
later we returned to camp and when
taps sounded we were feeling pret-
ty good and rolled in. Early the next
morning Gen. Logan, who had heard
about the applejack, sent for me and
l was trifle scared for fear he was
going to reprimand me. When APP
peared at his headquarters he was
standing at the door waiting for me.
AS l drew up in front and salutei
the general said: 'Burghardt, l want
drink of that applejack.
III felt fiattered that the gei-wal
should wish to drink from my ssh-
teen, so l unsluns it and handed it
to him. AS he rsssed it to his Ups
there was crash and the next in-
stant it went flying over his head. A
spent ball from some unknown quar-
ter had struck it full on the side,
making big dent In it."

A ChiId,s Query.

The recent death OF the third duke
of Wellington called to mind mem
ories of the first bearer of this his
toric title. A pretty story was told
at the time of little girl who wit
messed the great dukes funeral from
the windows of Lord Ashburton's
house. The child watched the mourn
full procession pass by, and said moth
ing until the hero's horse appeared,
it's saddle empty and the dukes
boots reversed in the stirrups. "Moth-
er," queried the little one, "when we
die will there be nothing left of us
but our boots?"
