He was a good man and God rest him!
This was the sentiment of brotherly

The Mexican Christmas Jar.

Novel is the method of distributing
the Christmas presents at the Mexi'
can embassy. Following the custom
which prevails in the land to the
south of us, there is suspended from
the ceiling a huge open-m0uth jar, in
which have been placed all the pres
ents, each neatly tied and addressed
to the intended recipient. The chill.
dren and grown people of the party
are armed with long, slender canes,
and with these first one and then an
other makes a dash for the swinging
jar, striking it or at it as they pass
OF course it is only a matter Of time
until the frail treasure house is de-
molished, and then ensues a grand
scramble for the gifts.-Washington

Santa Claus Modern Invention.

Of all Christmas customs the best
known is also the most recent. Santa
Claus is modern improvement. st.
Nicholas, it is not to be denied, is a
fairly hoary figure, and he has long
been known as the patron saint Of
children. Just why is not clear Prac.
tically nothing is known of the good
saint except that he died archbishop
of Myra in the fourth century. There
are one or two legends connecting
him with love and compassion for
young people, but there are also leg.
ends which cause him to be associ
ated with sailors. He is also claimed
as a patron by brigands on account
Of al adventure which he is said tc
have had with band of freebooters
Lastly, he Is claimed by the prOfes
sion of pawnbrokers, and it is a fact
that he is usually represented in me

descendant of this old festival which
was held N honor of the sun.

EFFORT TO RAISE MONEY.
The Y. M. c. A. Board Still Needs
e35, 900 on Building Fund.

Another earnest effort will be made by the
board of directors to- raise the remaining
S35 900 necessary for the proposed new Y
NJ c. A. building. 1t is expected that the
amount will be raised during the month of
February so that work on the structure can
commence before many more weeks have
passed 1t is believed that the business men
of the city will give the board their hearty
cooperation in the canvass.
The association feels very grateful for the
aid already received from these men, An
examination of the list of subscribers al
ready secured shows that it includes almost
one-half of the members of the Washing
ton Board of Trade and also of the Business
Mems Association. Many of these have sub
scribed very literally. 1t is believed that
the other half will not hesitate to add their
names to the list when the facts are laid
before them.
The members of the board of directors are
at the heads of large establishments, but
they intend to give part of their time to
a personal canvass in the next few weeks,
in order to create more interest and secure
the remaining amount of money.
The board members have all put their own
names on the list, their subscriptions ag
gregating $500 Besides giving time to the
raising of the funds the members are visit
ing other large cities in the east for the
purpose of examining modern Y. NJ. c. A.
quarters, with a view 10 making the local
structure as much a model is possible.

PARTED WITH THEIR CASH.
Story of Alleged Swindle Related to
the Police.

Eugene Garrett of HOS 10Th street and c.
Norris. living at 3245 o street, Georgetown,
met at PIP John Marshall place this morn
ing. 1t was their first meeting. and each
did not seem anxious to let the other know
his business. The men were there to see a
man who had said his name was William NJ
Taylor and to whom each had paid $40
upon promise to get position in a Phil
adelphia cafe at a salary of $50 a month
and board. They were attracted by an ad-
vertisement. and sent cards to the man who
had inserted the advertisement. A deposit
of $50 was required. but the advertiser ex-
pressed a willingness to accept $40 on ac-
count, with the understanding that the bal
ance would be paid this morning, when they
would go to Philadelphia. 1t was for the
purpose of making the final arrangements
that the young men went to the house this
morning.
Mr.. Taylor was not at home and the oc-
cupant of the house said he had gone away.
His trunk had been moved. and his wife
and dog had also gone 1t was said at the
house that Taylor is about thirty years old
and that his wife did not appear to be
more than seventeen years of age. The
men who had parted with their money
called at police headquarters and related
to Capt. Boardman the story of their expe-
rience. They said they had been told that
Mrs. Taylor said she was going from here
to Georgia.
