All signs point to a largess-laden Christ
mas-a Christmas of much giving and
much taking and consequently of much
good cheer-a Christmas in which all are
to play a part. ''ole folks an chilluns"-a
Christmas with piles upon piles of pres
ents
The mails, the express companies and the
merry crowds in the shopping mart all
foreten Christmas tidal wave. Never be-
fore in Indianapolis and elsewhere has the
Christmas rush come on so early and with
such proportions as this year.
The current of the Christmas tide flows
wide The postoffice has eclipsed its for
mer records, the express companies say
they have never before had so much bust
ness so early in the holidays and the stores
are busy from morning until night with the
Christmas shoppers. If these things count
for anything. then Christmas this year will
be the most bountiful since the days of the
story books. Many presents mean merry
times and happiness and of such is the
stuff Christmas should be made
The express companies of the city are
doing world of business. 1t is unusual,
the companies say to have such a rush
four and five days before Christmas. The
rush generally comes about the day before.
but this year the companies had all they
could handle even last Saturday, while yes
terday, the shortest day in the year, was
unequaled. Most of the companies have
found it necessary to draft a much larger
force in order to handle the Christmas
trade and are working extra men and
wagons from early morning until late at
night.
Most of the eXpressage is outgoing, show
ing that indianapolis people are liberal and
fro hon y~fn until lott Of frfn I'm fhe
other hand, the incoming mass of Christ
mas packages outstrip all other records.

ARE WOMEN CRIMINALS.
Two Shoplifters Arrested Found to
Have a Long Bad Record.

The police have secured the criminal
records Of the two women who were ar
rested by Detectives Bray and Holtz in the
Denison Hotel last week and their sus-
picions as to the characters of the pair
were proven true. Fanny Hester, whose
right name is Mary Fogarty, was impli-
Gated IN a murder in Chicago last April.
She has been in innumerable scrapes, and
many trials for larceny, and she is one of
the most widely known women crooks in
the West, 1t is said. Lillian Van Dusen
has been arrested in Chicago on several
occasions and her reputation is one which
should be spoken in moderate tone of
voice. James Wilson, the who was
arrested with the women, it is believed is
wanted in Boston, and his Bertillion photo
