VERY EARLY USE OF THE CHRISTMAS
TREE.
ton of tree having its branches from
top to bottom decked with burning can
dies, with the figure of Child at the
very top sending forth brilliant light
This tree in some way symbolized
Christianity, the candles representing
souls and the child typifying Christ.
1t is said that the Christmas tree was
adopted in France and England in
1910. Prince Albert is credited with
having introduced 1t in England the
first Christmas following his marriage.
which was in 1910. Within few years
after that one of the trees at Windsor
castle bore gifts valued at $40 900. But
more than a century before Prince Al
bert's advent an improvised Christmas
tree, called a 'besant," was carried in
professions in England at Yuletide. Ii
consisted of a pole decked with holly
or other evergreens and ribbons, to-
gether with oranges and apples and
sometimes pair of dolls.
The irrepressible desire for novelty
has led to unique variations in Christ
mas trees A society woman having a
couple of valuable pet dogs got up
dogs Christmas tree and invited forty
or more of the neighboring thorough
bred pups to the ovation.
The device by which Santa Clans
Is cooped up in the trunk of a portable
tree, with his head showing out at
times, is very simple, yet very taking
with young folks. 1t is accomplished
by having two empty barrels without
heads fastened one above the other
and covered with moss, bark and
lichen. Through a knot hole Santa's
voice Is heard. The structure being on
casters, the imp inside can move it
about the platform to the infinite de-
light of the children.
Another device for having a voice is
sue from the Christmas tree is accom-
plished by the use of the telephone. the
receiver being hung III the tree. The
absent ones can then send familiar
tones to those present, and when the
speakers are very dear and unavoida-
bly, absent the message is the best
Christmas present that can be con
ceived Of for the occasion. An cleo
trical outfit for lighting Christmas
trees has been invented at small cost.
One clever boy used IL with novel re-
suits by applying II 90 a magnificent
evergreen standing in front of his
home II was lighted on Christmas
eve after a snowstorm which decked
the branches with heecy garb. Tho

OF THE
Xmas Tree
A Yuletide Sketch by
JONATHAN JOYCE

copyright, 1903. by C. N. Lurie.l
~HHE Christmas tree for the as
play of presents is an evoiu-
ton. The true origin ana sig
nificance of this arboreal fea'
ture of Yuletide are uncertain. Appar
emily it is derived from an ancient Gus
tom. The pagan races of northern Eu-
rope had deep veneration for trees as
the abodes of the gods. For instance,
the linden sheltered Berchta, the spirit
kindly to babes. When celebrating
festivals the chosen tree of the differ
ent gods were decorated with lights
wreaths and tassels, and offerings TO
the spirits were suspended In the
branches.
The Romans used greenery in the
festivals Of Saturn, celebrated in De
cember, and carried the custom among
the Germans. The Egyptians used
trees for interior decoration, their "a
vorIte being the palm.

MARKING THE BOUNDARIES.
Agents Of Interior Department inspect
ing Forest Reserves.

R. H. Charlton and Lewis Barrett,
special agents of the interior depart
ment, sent out by the government to
inspect the Yellowstone forest reserve,
of which the Absarokee division is
part Dy virtue of consolidation, are
now in the field fulfilling their du-
ties, says the Carbon County Chroni-
Gle. Mr. Charlton, who has been out
with Supervisor Edward G. Russell,
returned to Red Lodge Thursday in
company with Mr.. Russell and left
Saturday on an overland trip to Cody
to join Superintendent ANDERSON and
Mr.. Barrett, who are now making the
rounds of the Wyoming portion of the
reserve, defining and marking the
boundaries. Mr.. Charlton states that
the policy of the department is to
eliminate from the reserve such parts
thereof as are purely agricultural and
that in all probability the Absarokee
division will be cut down.

Season Promises to Be Late in Gus
ter County.

Joe Beatty and crew of 10 hand
shearers left this morning for the
north side, where they will locate
shearing plant 20 miles distant from
town on South Sunday creek, says the
Yellowstone Journal. The trouble
among the men at the machine plants
and the recent rains have retarded
the work of fleeing the sheep con-
siderably and at the present rate it
seems improbable that shearing Will
be completed in this locality before
the last of July.
At last reports the Allen plant had
% men working and the Cooper plant
20 men. The hand shearers will shear
at the same cost to the grower %
others in the business.

FOR SHORT TIME ONLY.
Prisoner Escapes from Jail, But Is
Speedily Recaptured.

Tuesday morning r. G. Arleigh, a
prisoner confined in the county jail,
made his escape from that institution.
Although the man is awaiting trial
in the district court on felony
charge, he has been made a ''trusty,'
the sheriff having been beguiled into
the belief that he would not abuse
the privileges of the position because
of his apparent eagerness to plead
guilty.
The escape was made in the same
manner as that of w. Guy Landers,
the forger, who got away several
weeks ago. Arleigh was allowed the
freedom of the corridors and took
advantage of the fact to climb onto
the top of the steel cage in which
the cells are located, and thence made
his way to the attic. Once there,
he crawled through the hole made
by Landers and then lowered himself
| to the ground and struck for che hills.
Fortunately he was observed by some
boys playing ball nearby and they
notified the sheriff's Office.
Search was made OF the Burlington
railroad yards, but no trace OF the man
i was found. A passing butchers wagon
was pressed into service and the pur-
suers followed the road leading to the
bluffs north of town. In a canyon
near Alkali creek the man was seen
and his capture was effected.
Arleigh is charged with selling a
horse belonging to P. H. Smith and
also bicycle that he mad rented from
4 Behrendt Bros. When arrested he
admitted both charges and wanted to
be tried Immediately, saying he was
in a haste ito plead guilty, so thai
he could begin all the quicker what
ever sentence might be given him.
