BACK IN WASHINGTON.
President Arrives 1t the Capital-Haas
Boy Doing Well.

Washington, Feb. Is. The latest
news from Groton is that the condition
Of Theodore Roosevelt, Jr., is satisfac-
tory.
President Roosevelt returned to the
White House during the forenoon in
a very happy frame of mind after ave
anxious days at the bedside of his
boy. The journey back to the seat OF
government was made much more lei.
surely than the hasty dash into New
England last Sunday, when the presi.
dents anxiety to reach his son outran
the fastest special train.
The trip to Groton was made In four
teen hours. but eighteen hours were
consumed in the return, and in this
Homecoming the president had a chance
to make three short rear car speeches
to the crowd at Worcester, Woonsock
ct and Providence. In each he assured
the waiting hundreds that Tied" was
all right and out Of the woods, and in
each case the crowd seemed as joyous
as the president and cheered vooifer
ously.
Inc journey after leaving Providence
was uneventful. The president receiv
ed no word from Groton during tn
trip except few newspaper report
that the boy was progressing favora
bly, through the convalescent stage
There were only few people at tn
Pennsylvania station here when tn
president arrived. Assistant Secretar
Loeb met him, and the party was driv
en- rapidly to the White House.
Miss Alice Roosevelt left for Groto,
over the Pennsylvania road at -
o'clock In the afternoon. It is sxrec
ed that If the improvement in IT,
young mans condition continues f.
another week he will be brought her
at the end of that time. Mrs. Roos,
welt and Miss Alice will be in Was
ington when Prince Henry arrives

Chicago's Beau Brummel Alderman
Shocked at New Workers. Blunder.
They do such things in some western
towns, but Alderman Dickinson Of
Brooklyn has set the fashion in the
effete east by appearing at the aide
manic reception to Prince Henry in the
city hall of New York the other after
noon in full dress suit, spike tail

says the New York Evening World.
One explanation is that Alderman
Dickinsons everyday suit met with
a mishap. Another is that his evening
dress suit had never been worn before
and this was the first opportunity the
gentleman from Brooklyn had to dis
play himself in it.
"Bathhouse John" Coughlan, the in
comparable refulgent poem in GALL
gaskins of Chicago. was inexpressibly
shocked when told that Alderman Dick
inson of New York appeared in dress

Prince Henry. "Bathhouse," also an

"Anybody but an alderman sobbed
'Bathhouse john anybody but an

when he had recovered from his emo
ton, 1--WE have one foul blot upon the
fair name of our city that is a dead

Sarah jackson and Frank Vim were
before the Mayor last Wednes-
day charged with robbing an
other negro named johnson
on Saturday night. johnson was
drunk and fell into their hands and
was relieved of his weeks rations and
81 in cash. The testimony was so
conflicting that it was impossible to
arrive at the truth, but there was
sufficient evidence to convince the
Mayor that Johnson had been robbed,
and as Sarah Jackson is an old offender
the sentence was SO or 20 days. Frank
Winn's sentence was also $40 or 20
days.

State Superintendent of Education
McMahan has appointed Mr.. II. 6.
Osteen a member of the county board
Of education to succeed Mr.. r. ".
McCutchen, who is a resident Of Lee
county.
The next Legislature will probably
take some action toward reducing
the salaries of the county officials of
Sumter county. It doesn't seem rea-
sonable that the salaries should remain
the same as they were before Lee coun-
ty was cut off.
Street Commissioner White has finish
ed the work on the clay-sand roadway
on Liberty Street. The clay has been
graded and sand also spread over
the surface. The big roller has
been run over over it, but it is thought
best to let it dry and harden before
opening the street for use.
Within the past four weeks some
deadly disease among horses and mules
has been almost epidemic in parts of
Clarendon. The symptoms are of a
violent kind indicating brain affec-
tion, which the people think is
blind staggers." Seven horses and
mules so far have died with it.
The talk of reduction in the
salaries Of county officers does not meet
with hearty approval. It IS said that
the work and expense of discharging
the duties of the several county Offices
will not be any less than heretofore
and that it will be difficult to get
competent men to accept the Offices at
any smaller salaries than are now
paid. Nevertheless the salary question
will be brought up when the Legisla-
ture meets and it is to be hoped the
decision then made will be for the best
interests of the county.

! JEWISH FEAST ON CHRISTMAS DAY.
A Coincidence in Dates Which Attracts
Much Comment.

: For the first time in the history Of
the living, none of the writings of
the dead speak of it, the Jewish feast
Of ChanukkhanN and the Christian
feast Of Christmas fall on the same
day. It is rare coincidence when a
Jewish feast comes On the same day
as a feast of the Christians, and
Hebrews in all parts of the world
have spoken of the fact this season.
The Jewish feast, which comes on
December. % this year, is the Feast. of
the Lights, or the Feast of the
Dedication. Therefore it will happen
that Christians and Jews will cele-
brate on the same day, but for differ
ent reasons.
Chanukkhan is one Of the half-fes-
tiyals of the Hebraic 'church, which
falls this year on the 25th day of the
Jewish month Kislez, or otherwise
spelled Chisleu. This is the midwin-
ter month corresponding to our Decem-
ber. The feast is in commemoration-
of the rededication Of the temple in
Jerusalem after the Jewish victory over
the Syrians under the famous leader
Judas Maccabeus.
The Jewish people, having some
time before this fallen under the yoke
Of tne Syrians, we're misued in many
ways and forbidden to worship after
their own form, but commanded to
worship the statues Of the Syrian
gods. The leaders of the people re-
volted with Judas Maccbeus at their
head, and although but few in number
when compared with their enemies,
oVercame their foes.
The temple, which had been terri
bly, desecrated, was cieansed and re-
illnmined with the ever-burning lights
which were known as the perpetual
lights, the altar was rebuilt and a
feast held.
At this time the feast is observed
not so much as synagogue feast, al
thongh there are special services in
which music written for the day is
used, the lights lit,, and sermon
bearing on the event commemorated
preached. This synagogical service is
held on the Sabbath Of the week of
the feast, for it properly opens on the
25th of the month and lasts for eight
days. It is especially a home feast,
however, and one Of the distinctive
features of its celebration is that on
the first night one candle is lit and on
the next two, and so on, each sue
ceeding nj ght being marked by an ad-
ditional candle until eight are light
