SENATOR WELLINGTON A BUSY MAN.
One of the Best Dressed Members of the
United States Senate,

One of the Best Dressed Members of the
United States Senate,
The Washington correspondent of
the Baltimore ECening Ne1CS writes
of Senator George L. Wellington as
follows:
Senator George l.. Wellington, of
Maryland, enjoys one distinction that
is unique" said a man who keeps his
eye on the well dressed men at the
Capitol, land it is found precisely in
the fact that he wears the best-fitting
clothes of any man in the Senate and
the handsomest collection of patent
leather shoes and four-in-hand neck
ties that have graced the person of a
Senator or Representative since the
days of the lamented Roscoe Conk-
lings."
The speaker who gave utterance to
these remaks voiced the opinion of all
who have seen Senator Wellington
since the opening of the present ses-
sion of Congress. His clothes fit him
like glove. The coats usually worn
by him are of the Prince Albert varie-
ty, silk faced and lined throug hout
with the very best grade of silk. His
trousers are always well creased, his
hair is carefully parted, and his gen
eral appearance betokens man who
has that most desirable of possessions
valet who understands his business.
Senator Wellington is an omnivor-
Gus reader, and makes it q special
point to read and digest every scrap
of available information relative to
any measure the moment it is intro
duced in either the upper or the lower
branch of Congress. His desk is usu-
ually piled high with books and ref
erence memoranda What books he
has read he knows from cover to
cover. He keeps the Constitution at
his elbow and copy of the rules by
which the Senate is governed not
very far away. No dust is allowed to
accumulate on the papers or books to
be found in Senator Wellington's
committee room or desk. He keeps
them going, keeps digging for what.
ever of new and hidden meaning there
may be in this bill or that measure or
that treaty. He does not rely so much
upon what the previous committee
hos ha11 in fhic thaf flsa ~ or
case. Reports are respected, of course.
Due tribute is paid to the reasons and
conclusions of other men, but prece-
dent or the opinion of dozen COM
mittees is no iron law to Senator We'll
lington. He prefers to reason the
thing out according to his own lights
and if this finding does not agree with
that of others the opinions or reports
of others are smashed like so much
pie crust.
He always looks behind the rule for
reason, is affable and approachable
whenever q Marylander's card is sent
in to him, and invariable goes out of
his way to make the visit of his con-
stituents to the Capitol pleasant and
interesting.
Senator Wellington usually lunches
in the Senate restaurant. He seldom
eats alone. His food invariably con-
sists of soup and few plain and
simple dishes. He is the sworn foe of
waste, and, while he is not stingy, he
looks sharply after his own, as well as
the public, expenditures. This how
ever, is not strange trait among
great men. Washington. Carlyle and
Lord Bacon economical, and Dante
placed the spendthrift in the same
circle of hell as the miser.

Wrecked a Building.

Burglars Wednesday midnight dyn-
amited the safe in the West Virginia
Central railroad depot at Hendricks,
w. Va, and tore it to pieces. They
secured only part of it's contents and
wrecked the building. The report
was very loud, awakening the citizens
and the burglars hurried away, cyl
IDENTIFY after their first grab at the
money. The loss of the building was
several times greater than the money,
as less than $40 was secured from the
safe.

REMITTANCES;
THURSDAY, DECEMBER 25, 1902.
THE FIRST CHRISTMAS.

Peace bIooded over the seven-hilled
city of Rome. Just as color lies on the
face of a rose so the whole world was
laid at the gate of Rome. Her ships of
war were peacefully anchored in the
Black sea. The whole world was I'M
der tribute to Rome. A single tri-
umph of Augustus, it i q said, encircled
the imperial treasury by $50, 800, 900.
The world was ripe for the coming OF
a supernatural conqueror. But Jesus
came as a babe, wrapped in the gar
ments of humiliation. Bethlehem was
built on ledge of rocks. The roads
leading thereto are thronged. A
humble carpenter is in the crowd. His
wife is with him. The inn is full. The
rich and great ones hate engaged and
are occupying all the rooms. He
takes refuge in the cave or stable.
The moon sailed silently through a
sea of ether, bathing with flood Of
silvery light the hills of the holy land.
In the distance nestled Jerusalem,
with its walls and towering high in
nocturnal heavens. Yonder are the
shepherds with their focks, that lie
on the ridges like lingering patches of
snow in the spring time.
The shepherds are suddenly arous-
ed. They rub their eyes open to see
if they can what has happened. Is
it an earthquake or devouring wolf
among the sheep? They look up and
behold throng of angels breaking
out of the heavenly places and stir
ring the stiffness of the night by a
song. The first word thrills you.
GLORY" Oh, the music they shake
out on this stiffness of the night
GLORY to God in the highest; peace
on earth" A greater than a Caesar
has come. The dove of peace shall
now outwing the war eagle. The ell
oquence of Seneca will now pale be-
fore the preachers of Christs gospel.
No wonder the shepherds hurry away
to Bethlehem and find the Christ
child.
Humiliation precedes exaltation.
Joseph was Inundated and imprison-
ed and afterward he was exalted.
The prophet Daniel was cast into a
den of lions, then exalted to domin-
ion. Fear frequently goes before ex-
altation. Jesus humbled himself and
became obedient to death, but to-day
is exalted to the right hand of God.
The world gave Jesus a poor recep-
tion. No room for Him in the inn.
Wickedness sometimes fares better
than goodness. Guilt on the throne;
virtue in the cabin; Nero in the pal
ace; Paul in the prison; the old king
walking in the hanging gardens of
Babylon; the Hebrew children in the
furnace; the rich man in his elegant
home; Lazarus at his gate begging.
See the order-manger, Gethsemane,
crucifixion, exaltation. God will re-
verse positions after awhile. Paul
will be on the throne, Nero in the
dungeon.
Hope and joy are prime elements of
religion. No sadness in the angels
song to the wondering shepherds.
Hope paints the horizon with pictures
of beauty.
Humble beginnings may have glor-
ious endings. Jesus was lowly born.
To-day he is worshiped by happy
millions and shall yet win the worlds
heart.

SUCCUMBED TO HER INJURIES.
Mrs. ID. p. Miller Summoned to Her Etern-
al Rest Thursday Evening.

Mrs. ID. II. Miller Summoned to Her Etern-
al Rest Thursday Evening.
Mrs. d. P. Miller, who was so SER
iously injured in the wreck on We'd
nesday of last week near Oakland,
died at the Oakland sanitarium at
GAO o'clock Thursday evening.
Great as was the apprehension that
Mrs. Miller would not recover from
her injuries, her many friends hoped
against hope, but not until a mes
sage was sent Thursday afternoon
that summoned her relatives and
intimate friends to her bedside were
the true nature of her injuries realiz-
ed.
Ever since the terrible accident
Mrs. Miller had been tenderly cared
for at the Oakland sanitarium. Her
husband and daughter, Miss Helene,
who was also in the wreck and slight
ly injured, were constantly at her
bedside and all that medical science
could do was contributed to alleviate
her suffering.
The remains were taken to Cum
berland on train No. 4 Thursday
night when they were taken in charge
by Undertaken Butler and removed to
the family residence, "a Columbia-st.
Previous to her marriage the de-
ceased was Miss Florence B. Brengle.
She was born in Frederick county.
Besides her husband and one daugh-
ter, four sisters and her aged mother,
Mrs. Elizabeth Brengle, survive her.
Her sisters, Misses Nance and Frances
Brengle, who made their home with
the deceased, Mrs. James 7. Carscadon
of Keyser, w. Va, and Mrs. Emma
Ludwig, of Chamberburg, Pa, were
all at her bedside.
The deceased throughout her life
constantly exercised those tender
womenly graces which endeared her
in many households for her char
liable and church work. She was a
faithful member and an ardent work
er in Centre-st Methodist Episcopal
Church. In all her deeds of kindness
she closely followed the divine rule
whereby each hand was ignorant OF
the noble deeds of the other.
In her home life she was an ideal
mother and inheriting those rare char
acteristics which always retain friends
her home was filled with hospitality.

for the coming year that it has been
our pleasure to receive is that issued
by the Garrett County Bank of Oak

it is away beyond the ordinary. The
central figure of the calendar (which
is in the form Of a hanger) is lovely
golden haired maiden surrounded by
pansies and open fret work in gold
and light green. The calendar is an
ornament to any library.

ADVENTIST HOSPITAL BURNS

OsHplst'ly Destroyed.
ONE PATIENT Is BELIEVED TO ss DEAD
Three Hundred others Have PeriIous
Escapes, some Sustaining In
jurIes-ExpIosiOn Causes
the Fire.

BATTLE CREEK, Mich, Feb. 1s,-Esrly
today the large Adventist sanitarium and
hospital buildings located here we're de-
stroyed by FIRE, with a loss Of about $780,
900, with an insurance OF about $4,000
besides great personal loss to 800 pa"
tients in the main building and who only
had time TO escape in their night clothes.
One life is supposed to have been lost.
Abner Case, aged SO, Of Bath. N. T., Is
missing and It is thought his body lie bur
led in the ruins.
There were at least 800 persons in the
main building when the FIRE broke out IN
the basement. This building was hve
stories high, and as soon as the ire was
discovered the night attendants on each
floor gave the alarm in the Corridors, and
the patients made their escape down the
fire escapes, aided by the nurses. They
did not have time to save their personal
effects. Mrs. II. G. Daniels OF Bath, N. T.,
jumped from q hre escape about Two
stories from the ground and had q leg
broken. She was also injured internally
and about the head. None Of the other
inmates sustained injuries, so far as
known. They were all cared for In the
Phelps sanitarium and in private homes
nearby.
The iremen we're handicapped by insufh-
cient water pressure, and in two hours the
buildings we're in ruins. While hehting
the FIRE from ladders Fireman Henry A.
Lucas fell to the ground and received in
juries of a serious nature. Fireman Arthur
Robinson also fell from a ladder n was
badly hurt about the body; his lungs we're
also injured by inhaling hre. Assistant
Fire Chief Fred II. Webb fell from q lad
der. His head was injured and several
ribs broken. Fireman Frank c. Houghtalins
also received serious injuries.
Fireman Captain Fonda saved eight lives
at a great risk OF his own life.
Among the patients were Ira d. sankey
and Mrs. Sankey, who clambered down the
fire escapes. The management says the
buildings will be rebuilt at once. The
cause of the fire seems to bave been an
explosion of chemicals.

THE removal of our headquarters TO

have a club In New York. There Is not
a club in New York and by moving down
