AN AWFUL HOLOCAUST.

CHICAGO, Dec. sO.-Nearly 500 people
were killed in ten minutes this after
noon during u fire in the Iroquois
theater. the newest, the largest and as
far as human power could make it the
safest theater N Chicago.
The latest news received in Challis
over the wire places the dead, already
taken out, at 776, and the wounded at
nearly 100 people.
The fire broke out during the second
act of the play, "Mr. Bluebeard," +"
which is the first dramatic production
produced in the theater since il was
erected. The company, which was
very large, escaped to the street in
safety.
The accounts of the origin of the fire
are conflicting, and none are certain,
but the best reason given is that an
electric wire on the lower part of a
piece of drop scenery suddenly broke
and was grounded.
The FIRE spread rapidly toward the
front of the stage, causing the memb-
ers of the chorus who were then en-
gagged in the performance, to flee to
wings with screams of terror.
The Gre in itself up to this time was

NEW YEARS THOUGHTS.

Now comes to some in Challis the
time of resolutions. They are we'll
enough in their way and some of them
are very good, if kept. And yet one
fever for resolutions; since so many of
them are negative aud not positive; as
if life's value was increased more by
things left undone than by things done.
1t seems as though grouping all res
olutions on one day is more sign of
blindness than of sight. We are-so
many of us-blind to the fact that not
alone one day of the year is a day of
fate. Is not rather each new day fate
full?
Nearer to right is the one who
'about-faces" any day of the year,
when he sees in himself weakness or
a wrong. No strength come from de-
ferring self-conquest. The sailor in a
storm does not promise to make every
thing snug when calm comes. He
does 1T right in the teeth of the gale or
he is liable to perish.
Each particle of self-trainiug ac-
complished as the year rolls around,
makes the popular clearance day of
the year very simple thing to face.
1t is then no longer the day for an ap-
palling list of things not hereafter to
be done.
The man with few self-made Sina-
itic Limitations of Thou shalt not, -
when he speaks to his soul on New
Years Day, is the man who has most
force left him foT manly IL wills"
Every 81 will" of right-acting man
has as much to do with his duty tow
wards his neighbor as it has to do with
his duty towards himself or God; for
he who has not deferred self-correctiou
iuds his interest in this worlds well
fare increase as the years go by.
Each step away from selfish soul
saving fears-for some would even say
"This world is given over to the evil
one"-shows a wider world with wis
dom crowned, wider self when self's
un bound.
Near then to the heart of each
broad-minded reader must be a glow
lug, warming sense that New Year
for the old world is bound to mean
more II Wills" of good-doing brought
to fruitage.
NEUGHT should prevent calm
confidence from settling each spirit of
good willing; for imperfections seen
aud known and conquered as they
arise are the very strength and might
of new perfections. The greater the
spread of such an idea in opposition TO
the old fashioned way of making ''New
Years resolutions" the better the
world is bound to be.
-FOUR thoughts seem in order as
we say goodbye to the ola: No re-
grets for honest attemps that failed;

1t isn't the deed you do my friend
It's the deed that you leave undone,
For that is the deed you will rue, my friend,
When the course Of your life is run;
The little word that was never heard,
The gift that you never gave.
Oh, these are the things whose mem'ry stings
To the verge OF the very grave
The tear that you might have dried, my friend
The sigh that you might have stilled--
Oh, you should, and you could, If you only
would
And you wished, but you never willed;
And maybe the cheek that you never kissed
Grew paler and cold and numb,
And maybe it was that the lips it missed
Could have made the sunlight come.
1t wasn't tn good you did, my friend,
II wasn't the words you said
1t was something--son,ething you hid, my friend
Which might have revived the dead;
And the heart at rest in the dead ones breast
Had listened and longed for years
For the little word that was never heard
Till Silence had sealed her ears
Oh, 1t isn't the race you run, my friend
And IL isn't the prize you win.
It's the race that was never begun my friend,
And the race that you wont begin.
For that is the race that would prove you
pace
The race that you ought to try,
But you let it go till your feet are slow,
And you falkland you wonder why.
And the life that you live is dark my friend,
With the good that you failed to do,
And the mark that you missed is the mark ny
friend,
That you couldn't, or didn't view;
The failure you met was mask that set
On the face of Fortune fair,
But you didn't have heart for the task and ye
You were winning, and almost there
You didn't have heart, for you failed to know
What lay in the deed undone-
You had only brief little way to go
And the prize would lave soon been won;
But you pass to your grave in a dream, my
friend
And you wouder, and wonder why;
And you drift along with the stream my friend
And you pray-but you never try.

swallowed up and lesser thoughts

"Happy New Year" is on every lip.
Let the dead bury their dead. For
ward must the eye be turned towards
things to come, newborn every day
from the dead of things that have
been. Unfeeling nature would revolve
on for ages reproducing the same
things; but the mind of man can make
things that have never been grow from
things that have been.
E great reason, that, for happiness
as we look out over days yet 20 come
the sense of might and majesty owned
and controlled by us individual midg-
cts, who cannot fly like birds nor swim
like fish nor scent like dogs; but who,
by reason, can do more than all these
rolled together, even to the physical
transformation of continent and the
moral regeneration of a race.
yet realized what great creature a
human being is and how nightly he
has climbed. If 1904 brings home a
new sense of kinship to greatness, with
its corresponding longings to reach
forth and partake of the greatness, it
VIII indeed be Happy New Year.
Pure sense of kinship with all of
human prowess means real joy at
every forward move, whether made by
ourselves or by our neighbor or by the
mass. The gain of one is the gain of
all; for no man can possibly grasp and
hold to himself every force he lets
loose: any more than an electrician at
switchboard dare to hold to himself
all the power he controls.
Your happiness will be the greater
if 1904 shows you that cooperation of
an orchestra-each instrument sub
ordinated to harmony produced by
many-is a picture of what the world
of various interests must one day uu-
derstand TO be the true interest of all.
Nay; may it not even now be true
that out of the many instruments in
the world with their varied powers
and seeming discord, there is more
harmony for The Great Conductor than
we yet dare believe ?
Every watchfulness of the rights of
others is pure note that eau persist
and prevail through tempests of dis
sonant chords, just as the note of The
Pilgrims in the prelude of Tannhauser
rises clear, sinks again, but finally
rings forth triumphant over all Bac-
chanalian frenzy.
With such hopefulness let our feet
move across the mystic threshold of
things concealed.
Yet though the things to happen
may indeed be unseen and unimagined.
the outcome is not uncertain. As sure
as light is, so surely must it prevail
over darkness. We can foretell, there
fore, a broader, brighter, more gener-
GUS light along the path of the race,
no matter what happens to individuals.
Each year is new opportunity, and
so long as thinking men believe in
good, there shall never cease the seed
ing-time of good and the harvest
thereof.
against doubt let us match belief;
against Indifference energy; against
every impulse to self-limitation let us
array the trumpet-call of wider life
more wisely lived.
Ring out the old year, ring in the
Happy New Year.

ment from the London Post, that IL
Russia wants to regain the sympathy
of America she must provide for those
who wish to settle in Russia. The
paper says: ALAS there is no room
for them" The governor of Tomsk
province has ordered all Japanese to
keep inside their houses, and remove
the signs from their shops, as he can
not guarantee them protection. Gener-
al Altavater, inspector of artillery of
