THE ART OF GIVING.
Reflections, With Ex
amples From Old Times.

Sir Edwin Arnold in the London Telegraph
Now is the season for giving and receiv-
ing gifts, eliminating at Christmas time
and that universally celebrated boxing day,
which may be called "the festival of the
open hand" It is only of late years that
the practice of bestowing gifts at yuletide
has become actually national in the British
empire. Doles and aims used, indeed, to be
distributed, and the day following the great
Christian festival was always what it Is
now one Of good will between the upper
| and lower classes. This was probably de-
rived from the Roman habit of the Fescen-
| nine games, when slaves for time took the
places of their masters, and a genial equali-
ty prevailed, marked by mutual presenta-
| tions.
| Among ourselves, as the medieval cele-
| brations of Christmas, with the mummers
and the yule log, the wassail bowl, the
masque, twelfth night and the rest have
| faded out of fashion, the holy season has
| especially become one dedicated first to
| the children, next to the family gathering
and thirdly to the interchange of mutual
tributes of alta achment, affection or good will
There are still no doubt many rural homes
in which the idea of Christmas, as Charles
Dickens sought to perpetuate it, is retained
and goodly and pleasant such revivals seem
where the circumstances are favorable and
happy girls and boys to help them thrOng
plentiful around the mahogany tree. And
it is astonishing how long-lived and cling
ing the old traditions are. A curious proof
| of this in connection with the gift-siv:ng
might be cited from Japan. Whenever one
makes present there, whatever Its nature
| or value may be, the invariable practice is
to tie it up with red and white string, to
write upon the ''noshi," which is Japanese
character in shape like note of interroga-
ton, and to tuck into it's upperside little
triangular piece of fish skin, or Of parch-
ments representing fish skin. Those three
things are relics Of an immeasurable past
in japanese etiquette. The New Year pres
ent a thousand years ago was generally
salted salmon, tied with band of the ma
tional colors. and with long inscription Of
homage and congratulation. To this day,
though the Japanese themselves have gem
orally forgotten it, the bit of skin repre-
sents the salmon, the colored twine the an
cient national badge, and the "noshi' ex-
ecuted with one stroke of the pen, stands
for the old long-Winded felicitatious

MACLAY WILL NOT RESIGN.
Insists That He is Protected by Civil
Service Rules.

lnSlStS 1hat he IS PrOteCte0 by civil
Service Rules.
A dispatch from New York last night
says: Edgar Staunton Maclay, whose con-
nection with the Schley case led President
Roosevelt to request his resignation as spe-
cial laborer in the navy, made formal de-
mand today for trial by usual naval pro-
cedure. He averred that his case came un-
der the civil service law and that he could
not be dismissed without formal charges,
trial and conviction. The request for his
resignation was sent to him by Rear Ad-
miral Barker, comma ndant Of the navy
letter, formally setting forth his position.
Discussing the case, Maclay said:
1.-THE President cannot have me dis
missed under the law, as see it. 1 do not
see how he can force me out. I am pro-
tected by the civil service laws enacted by
the Congress, whose enactments the Presi-
dent is bound to execute. I do not know
positively. but l believe my position under
civil service furnishes me complete. protec-
tion so long as violate no rules of the serv-
ice, and that I have not done, and I have
so stated in my letter to the commandart,
in answer to the request for my resignation.
No; I did not say that the President is as
bad as the Czar Of Russia.
Il have done nothing more than write
the commandant and ask that charges be
preferred against me, and 1 will do moth
ing more just now. have not been sus-
pended and am working here today. as /
have been doing for fifteen months 1 have
tried to do my duty here and have broken
no rules and shall simply stand by my
rights, more for the principle of the mat
ter than anything else for my position here
pays me very little and is chiefly valuable
because of the experience and information
it affords me as material for my books"
Rear Admiral Barker forwarded Maclay's
letter to Washington.

Cold Street Cars.
the Editor Of The Evening Star:


Is there any reason why the Washington
Traction Company should be allowed by the
authorities to continue to run open cars
this time Of year? 1t does it Of course to
suit it's own niggardly purpose. 1t should
be compelled to leave the open cars in the
shed from at least November / to May l.
1 believe the great epidemic Of grip, which
ragged here last winter and early spring
and which is now fairly setting in for this
winter was and is caused to a great ex-
tent by the exposure to cold and dampness
to persons being obliged to ride in open
cars in cold and bad weather. The first or
motor car Is closed one, while the trailer
Is invariably an open one. Between the
hours of g and o'clock am, when the
working people are on their way to their
tasks, 1t is utterly impossible to get even
standing room in the closed or motor car
and even the open one is full to overfiowing
OF poor, shivering humanity. who could not
get room in the closed one.
In return for the valuable franchise, the
syndicate should be made to accommodate
the travelling public conveniently and COM
fortably, or else sell out to some other COM
pany that could do 1t, not a sham sale for
the purpose Of reorganization, but a gen.
uine one. If it would sell one or two of the
many roads 1t bought and apply the money
to properly and comfortably equip the 9TH
ers, 1t would rebound to it's credit and be
highly priced by the public. Patience has
ceased to be virtue in forbearing with
this company any longer, and IL it does not
remedy matters Congress should take hold
of 1t and compel 1t to do so. W.

A Local Omce.

To the Editor of The Evening Star:
The Star in its editorial Of December 20. In
regard to the appointment Of an outsider
voiced the universal sentiment of the cit-
zens of the District, without regard to
party. While referring to the pledge in the
republican platform of 1896, that the men
appointed to office in the territories SHOULD
be bona fide residents thereof, and that self
government should be accorded as far as
practicable" The Star might have gone
much further in it's citations, for in the
platforms of every convention of both the
democratic and republican parties as far
back 1884 there has been the same
pledge. The term territories was always
understood TO include the District; but to
make 1t clear beyond doubt or question the
democrats in their platform in 1892 and
again in 1896 specified the District by name
as follows:
I'VE hold-that the officials appointed to
administer the government of any territory,
together with the District of Columbia and
Alaska, should be bona fde residents of the
territory or district In which their duties
are to be performed" Platform of 1892,
section o. And that Of 1896 is in almost
accepts a nomination on platform of prin-
ciples he is understood to pledge himself to
carry out those principles, and yet not one
of them has done 1t, for In every instance
officials whose duties were to be performed
In the District have been appointed from
distant states.
Not only Is this practice an outrage upon
the taxpaying residents Of the District, but
1t shows that political platforms are hum
bug, gotten up simply to catch votes and
not to be lived up to or carried out in
practice. OBSERVER.
