lurking in the mountains Of Peristeri,
which divide the great road from Res
IA to Monastir from Lake Presba
During the night two Turkish de-
tachments, one from the east and the
other from the west, set out for the
hiding place DC the insurgents. The de-
tachment from the east found the rev
dictionaries strongly posted on pre-
clpitous ridge The insurgents imme.
diately became aware of the presence
Of the troops and began to roll huge
powders down the mountain side, thus
killing four and wounding three OF
their besegdrs The troops unwaver-
ingly continued to climb the mountain,
the face of which was so steep that
the wounded had no chance TO escape,
but rolled TO the foot Of the precipice
as soon as they were struck. The
Turks maintained steady fire as they
pressed upward
After a desperate conflict had been
carried ON several hours and while the
issue was still doubtful the Turkish
detachment from the west reached the
crest Of the ridge The Bulgarians
were thus placed between two fires
They held hurried consultation and
decided to rush the eastern detach-
ment, who were clinging to the rocks
on the mountain side. The revolutions
aries succeeded in forcing the troops TO
fan back to the less PERCEPTIONS slopes
Of the mountain, but lost sixty-tive

However we may regard Christ
mas, whether from the standpoint
of the Christian or that OF the pa
gan, the fact remains that 1t Is the
one day of the year on which the
whole civilized world makes merry.
What Is even more remarkable 1t Is
the one day of the year on which
ones happiness seems to depend on
the happiness of others. To such
degree is this true that celebrated
clergyman once remarked that If
all the days of the year were Christ
masses, the millennium would come.
1t Is Christmas that puts to test
that real Christianity which makes
all the world akin.
More than custome followed In
observance of the day, recognition
of the doctrine of Peace on earth,
good will toward men," expouuded
over eighteen hundred years ago,
prompts words of cheer and deeds
OF love until there Is hardly a man,
woman or child who asks, "Am |
nv brothers keepeI" During the
holiday season, at least, every one
has In his keeping the happiness OF
others and endeavors to discharge
his duty fully to his own satisfac-
ton and In the hope that his efforts

Mr.. Joshua Russell, one of the
pioneer residents of this city, died
at his home on Railroad Avenue,in
this citv last evening at $50 o'clock
In the 18th year of his age, after a
long illness, due mostly to the In
frmities of old age.
Mr.. Russell was born and raised
In this city and for many years
lived on his farm just north of Sis
tersville. He followed farming for
an occupation until within the past
decade when he built himself fine
home In this city where he resided
until his death. 1t was upon
the farm of Mr.. Russell,
on Pole Cat run, that tie
first oil we'll was drilled that
opeued up the great Sisters
Vile oil field. Mr. Russell married
Miss Sarah Sweeney, of Wheeling,
and she was q sister of Mrs. L. A..
Ramey, who resided at Ottawa, o.. ,
where every one was familiar with
the oil business. During a visit OF
Mrs. Ramey with her sister, these
,wo sisters proposed that Mr..
Russell would secure leases tor oil
on a block of land here and Mrs.
Ramey was to get a company to
drill a test we'll. Mr.. Russell did
secure the land and Mrs. Ramey
! found the men, Messrs. Ludwig &
Weeter, to make the test that re
suited In opening up the oil fields
here which resulted In making SO
many happy and prosperous. Mr.
Russells farm proved to be the
richest oil producing farm In this
section of the country and he died
rich man but his wife departed
this life In 1894 before the oil field,
she did so much to open up, was
discovered.

Glass Trouble May
be Compromised

We are pleased to state that ne
gotiations are pending looking to-
wards a compromise by the terms
of which the Tyler Window Glass
Company will probably resume
work In a day or two. Last night
overtures were made and the men
and stockholders will probably
reach an agreement this evening or
tomorrow by the terms of which
the plant will resume WORK. Both
sides seemed to be disposed to agree
to such terms and conditions as
will start the plant up and We are
sure everybody will hope the COM
promise will be reached.

SPIRIT OF CHRISTMASTIDE

will be appreciated. There Is such
degree of conscientiousneSs In
discharging self imposed tasks that
no one tries to make some one else
happy simply to obtain happiness
himself. Say what one may about
The sel6shness OF giving and recetv
ing, 1t Is an indispu,able fact that
the great majority of people are In
spired by the true spirit of Christ
mas which can be satisfied only by
showing good will toward men,"
In practicing the doctrine Of
Him whose natal day Is celebrated,
few ask who Is my neighbour
Just so far as they can, the great
maj ority of people accept the op-
portunity for making any one glad.
Even bitterest enemies have been
known so far toforget their diff =ren n
ces that they have called Merry
Christmas. In the spirit of the
season there Is something irresistt.
BILE almost. which impels one to
forgive and forget all else save the
gladness Of it, the inspiration of It
to nobler thugs, the hope which
1t brings to every one, If there
were no hereafter, Christmas would
do, and In fact does do, much to
make this life worth the living, be

brings Us the greatest degree of
