all and Toby sat down on his ample
launches. 81
Git UP, you.' shouted the clown.
But Toby never winked.
"G'wnn out err hcre.' cried the little
fellow, or I'll bang yer one"
This was too much for Toby.
''He's insulting the American flag"
he muttered. II don't care for myself,
but no Teller in the Spanish rig Is goin'
ter hit this flag" and he put back his

Old Glory said Toby, in true Barbara
The clown was angry He brought
his wip down on. Toby-thwack!
Toby Knocked MIN down with his left

NEW SUNDAY SCHOOL
ORGANIZED IN FULTON

The Rev. II. j.. McKeefrey. pastor Of
st. Patrick's Church, will organize sun
day-school for Catholic children In DON
ahue's Hall, Fifth and Louisiana Streets,
Fulton Sunday evening at o'clock 1t
Is the purpose to continue the school every
Sunday evening.
This is an advancement In Catholic cir
cles that has won favor. The growing
congregation necesstates another sun
day-school. Fulton has a population of
about 700 Catholic citizens, and tho indie
fatigable efforts of Father McKeefrey to
s9e that all the children attend Sunday
school regularly meets the unanimous APP
proval Of his parishioners.
Since Father McKeefrey became pastor
Of ST. Patrich's Church the congregation
has rapidly increased, and to keep pace
with the growing demands. another Sum
day school has become necessity.
The father will perfect arrangements
for the new school Sunday at +. M, at
which time all the Catholic children living
In Fulton are expected to attend.
Teachers are being fast selected, ana

ent Is so widely known in the profession.

a largo number OF the Cathonc peoPle
favor a chapel being erected In Fulton,
but it is not known whether a PROPOSE
ton Of the kind would be accepted just
now by the Catholic clergy. 1t Is known,
however that n few years ago talk of
the kind was INDUCED in. and contrlbu-
tons for such purpose were freely Of

large site of land voluntarily to erect
tho chapel besides considerable money.
There We're other citlzens VINO Vo'uh-

this time it is thought that these free

BARNUM-BAILEY SHOW

The fact that Barum & Balley's shows
will close their season in this. city, has
suggested the idea of attempting TO m

no definite proposition has been made
to the show management, nor Is II Ger
tain that the building could be had for
the purpose stated. The cost OF trans

equal the revenue that would be derived

Children Given Treat.

One of the pleasant features of
Christmas at the Naval Academy was
the Christmas tree and presents pro-
vided ON the Santee by Lieutenant
Commander George M. Stoney, in
charge of ships at the Naval Acad-
emy The treat was for the children
of the enlisted men attached to the
Santee, one hundred of whom were
present and enjoyed Captain Stoney's
hospitality. The tree represented a
full rugged ship and was handsomely
decorated with gold and silver tinsel,
colored balls and good things intend
ed for the children. A treat of cake
lemonade and candies was also pro-
vided, and the happy party was visited
by Santa Claus himself, while old Nep-
tune helped to serve each child with
bags of candy. The efforts of Cap
tain Stoney to make glad the hearts
of the children were greatly apprecia-
ted by the parents and friends of those
entertained and the occasion will long
be remembered.

POLICE HIVE A BUSY DAY.
Petty Offenses Before The City
Magistrates Yesterday
And Today.

There were the usual number Of
persons whose way of celebrating the
Christmas holidays was to get drunk
as possible and give the policemen and
magistrates some work.
The celebrating began on Christ
mas eve with row in the Saunders
saloon on Market Space A fight took
place in which billiard cues and
balls were used promiscuously as
weapons. Two colored men, Benja-
badly used up and a charge has been
laid against the former. Justice
Fledmeyer had case with some comi-
cal incidents before him Christmas
morning. Pierce Kane, a marine,
was charged with stealing live tur-
key from Daniel nj. McCorkle, a
sailor living in Annapolis. Kane was
drunk and after taking the turkey
marched straight through the Acad-
enly grounds with the bird across his
shoulders. McCorkle was indignant
at first and wanted the charge pressed,
but softened before this morning and
very magnanimously paid the costs in
the case. Justice Feldmeyer, believ-
ing that there was no real intention
of stealing the turkey, released Kane.
Philip Travers, marine, was fined
on Christmas morning for disorderly
conduct on Christmas eve, but was
released ON giving an order for the
amount. Failing to appreciate the leni-
ency shown him he again became in
toxicated and was disorderly in the
new eating house occupied by Mr..
Philin GuienOt He refused to leave
and assaulted the waiter. During the
scuffie front window was broken.
The man was arrested by Chief Tay-
lor and resisted arrest. At this point
a rather interesting incident took
place. Travers, it seems, was absent
without leave and squad had been
sent for him. The squad commander
rather dictatorially demanded that the
marine be turned over to him, but the
chief refused to surrender the prisoner
until he had answered for his civil
offenses. This morning he was fined
50. 75 and committed TO Jail in default.
