And the first movement Of that first great
Christmas musical work was a bold recita-
tive. with the words fear not"
Surely, we are most Of us shepherds in
the fields and we are sore afraid. Afraid
Of this and Of that, frightened by our own
thoughts, error-stricken by our own
dreams, alarmed at the phantoms which
we ourselves c%onjure up and have not the
courage to drive away.
Afraid that some may ~criticise us.
Afraid that some one is angry at us.
Fearful that we may lose this blessing or
that opportunity. Timid, lest we might
fail. apprehensive lest we should be con-
sidered presumptuous in our efforts, faith
less in our own great and glorious posi-
%bilities, and generally speaking, literally
scared to death" by our own imagina-
lions.

The famous spectacle, ben Hur," which
is well known to all, is coming to Omaha
for a single week at Boyd's theater, COM
menclng Monday. January 5. Special &C
commodations will be arranged on all roads
leading to Omaha during this week and
everything Is being done TO provide for the
accommodation of out-of-town patrons.
The production is the original Klaw g.
ErlanGcr organization, with the same cast,
scenery. horses. camels and ornate cleo
tricnl effects. There are a few bars Of mu-
sic-serving the same purpose as q volun-
tary before divine seryice-snd when the
curtain rises Il discloses tho illimitable
waste OF desert, the tired camels, the three
wise men gathered 10 greet the appearance
OF the star. "a focus OF dazzling ~luster."
Following the prelude comes the brilliantly
colored pictures Of the housetops Of Jeru-
salem, the terrace Of the palace of Ben
Hur. Next Is the dim interior CT the Ro-
man galley ship. the muscular, grim-vis-
aged slaves Juggling In rythmic motion at
the cars. Then the wreck. with Ben Hur
and his captain struggling in the waves,
Then the great chariot race. Two Roman
ohariots, each drawn by four horses. form
the center OF the marvellous picture. The
animals run like mad, urged on by the
whips OF the characters, Ben Hur and his
enemy. MESSIAH. The wheels Of the char
lots rumble and sway. Now Rem Hur is
ahead. now Messiah, then Ben Hur and the
race is ended. The final scene reveals
Mount Oliyet. where a great multitude
gather TO greet the NaEarene and where
the Savior performs the miracle II cleans
ing the iepers. Christ's personality Is
never represented in the heh. but his
presence is Indicated by q ray Of marvellous
br!lliancy, which is reflected ~ q shaft OF
pure white light from the halo over his
kcsG. To present the spectacle no less
than $50 people are requleed. N 'hs chariot
race eight horses are used. While four
more are kept in training for emergencies.

The Christmas offering at the Boyd will
be "Florodora." The c~ompany's engage
ment is for Ave performances, opening
Thursday afternoon christmas day.. With
the exception Of one or two changes the
piece is the same as was given at the Boyd
twice last season. The scenery is new and
more elaborate than carried last season.
The sextet's personnel has undergone a
change. 1t is called a beauty bouquet. 1t
contains the handsomest women possible TO
get In New York. The names Of the prin-
cipals Is an indication OF the worth Of the
attraction. Isadore Rush has the role Of
Lady Holyrood. Corinne that Of Dolores
and All Whoelan that of Tweedlepunch.
Others are Charles Dox, Charles Bowers,
Willard Curtis, Alfred Cahill, Frances Ty-
son and Grace Hazard. In all the company
numbers 100 people.

USEFUL HINTS.

Chocolate is greatly improved by
adding a teaspoonful of strong
coffee just before serving.
When beef and pork are too salt,
soak the meat for several hours in
one part sweet milk and two Of
water, before using.
Make your knot on the end of the
thread that first leaves the spool.
and you will sew with a smooth
thread and an unruffled temper.
Wilted vegetables may be partial
~ restored in quality and freshness
by placing them in cold water for
an hour or more.
Turnips, boiled like beets, with
their jackets on, are of better flavor
and less watery. \ small bit Of
sugar added while the vegetable is
boiling corrects the bitterness often
found in them.
Do those who use ammonia on
their plants remember that am
monia is a stimulant, not a food?
While it is useful to force plants
into bloom and growth, after the
soil is exhausted, a fertilizer must
be applied or the plant will use up
its own vitality in bloom.

TEXAS LEADS IN RICE.

The Texas rice growers and those
interested in the history are jubil-
ant over the publication of the gov
eminent crop report from thesDe-
partment of Agriculture in Wash
ington, D. C. That report shows
that Texas has big lead over any
other of the rice growing States, the
average yield per acre in Texas be-
ing one and a half times that of IFS
nearest competitors, North Carolina
and Georgia, and nearly twice that
of the others. The estimated yield
per acre in Texas as gathered by
the United States Government Of
ficials is 40 bushels or III barrels,
which on the generally accepted
acreage of 100000 acres, will make
the aggregate yiek for Texas this
year two and lfmillion barrels,
or on the reyisedS acreage as report
ed by Prof. 7. I. TAYLOR of the State
University, $4,000 >eres would
give a yield of over two millions OF
barrels. This yield Of III barrels
per acre places Texas on the very
top pinnacle in rice growing and is
q record Of which every person in
terested in the rice industry, either
directly or indirectly, should well
be proud. With such a record Tex
as can well go before the country
