CHEER 1:
HOLIDAY CROWDS
Weather Has lite Effect Upon
the Shoppers and the Stores
Are Crowded.

Broad Street was alive with Christmas
shoppers Yesterday and the holiday Iatle
was brisk. =-Despites the unpleasant wealth
err the streets were crowded with persons
out for sightseeing and shopping anu :
thousands of packages with 1nolcatiohs u
holiday cheer about them, were seen guns
along under the arms of happy purchas-
ers.
Ir the stores Kaleidoscope pictures or
r,,srry v,,1e-t;de presented themselves, and
the bright faces of the purchasers, with
The hardly less bright countenances OF the
clerks. added to the charm OF the early
Christmas traffic.
The displays this season are more mag
nifcent and diversified than ever before,
and when one gets inside the tSnop uool
it becomes a mental strain to decide as
10 what to buy, and in the mix-up It IS
almost sure to result in the purchase OF
the wrong thing, so that another trip pc
comes necessary, and the CROWDS increase.
The Street falirs, with their jumping
jacks ana walking babies and other JIM
cracks, have not made their appearance
i'll numbers yet. The only one OF THIS
gentry seen on the street yesterday was
the lone. lone balloon man, ana ne aloll !
tire himself out waiting on customers.
balloons were gltt on the market.
Inside the toy bazaars there was confu-
sion incident to the clanorinS of crowds
of eager customers after their toys. It
was the same in the other stores, and
Mr. Mann said that orders for Christmas
flowers were already fast pouring IN
With the settling down of the weather
and the nearer approach of Christmas
Eve the Kaleidoscope pictures Will be
more Kaleidoscope, and jams will be more
damned, and the happy faces of the clerks
will change into ones of WEAKNESS, Tor
Christmas comes but once a year.

America a Saints Name.

Very few people have the least idea
what is the origin of the name America.
That the country was named from
Amerigo NeSpucci. maker of the first
map and discoverer of some portions of
the mainland, they will tell you glibly,
but have not the least idea whence
Amerigo took his name.
Signor Nespucci, like most pious Ital-
ians, bore a saints name; and the
saint was the son of st. Stephen, king
Of Hungary in the eleventh century.
His name was Emeric, and his day is
celebrated on the 4th of November. He
was very holy and very clever; his
name was familiar to the people of all
Europe, and in the fifteenth century
was much used in Italy in its Italian
lied form. So the Hungarian saint
gave his name to our continent.
The stigma which, in the opinion of
many, still rests upon the character of
Vespucci for his supposed appropria-
ton of the credit and honor of the dis
