THE WESTERN CHRISTMAS

Christmas, the sacred day. has evil
IDENTIFY been built for all mankind.
The Star Of Bethlehem. the Sacred
Manager and the Son of the Lord win
be praised in thousand languages
and scores of different worship, bur
in the West it has grown to day sof
pleasure giving and it is safe to say
that not hungry mouth will be with
out food in this State and men of
all nations vie with each other TO
do good to their neighbor, or the
neighbors youngster.
Carson is one of the typical towns
of the glorious West the element OF
purchase and gife was abroad yester-
day.. The sight of it all was the
children of the Indian School They
purchased to the capacity of their
limited purses, the purchases are for
gifts to their neighbors of blood. The
spirit of gift has been installed into
the red man by his white brother, and
whether the birth of the Lord has any
thing to do with the generous Gus
tom is doubtful. The simplest gift
that money could buy was tucked
away with the intent of making a
gift to another. 1t was Christmas,
not of the prayer book variety but
from the liberal heart, that means
more than mere religion. The custom
has started and will grow, whatever
the meaning.
, Shoulder to shoulder with the daugn-
ter of the Indian stood the children ct
the Oriental. The Chinese purchas-
ed as freely as the white in order
to make the fAend know that there
was true friendship even in the bosom
of the foreign born. and the child OF
the Orient gives to the offspring OF
the man with the Bible Christ.
This is true Christmas spirit, whesh-
er the son of the Indian or the daugh.
ter of the prelate does the giving, It
Is with the intent of bringing happi
ness and that is the constitution Of
the gift that blesses. Little is known
by many who receive or give among
such classes regarding the Prince III
Peace, the Man Of Love, the Gentle
Nazarine, but the doctrine of DO un.e
others as ye would be done by" is the
simple creed that was followed out
yesterday in the crowded stores OF
this Western city. 1t is the gift that
comes from the sincere heart and it il
as deeply valued as that Of the mil
lionaire.
May every mothers child be blesse'
by this kind on Christmas Day for Il
love of truth that seeks signmfwyl
is the
Love Of living, doing, giving;
Love of truth that needs sign
Till the earth throbs with tn
measure:
God in man, the Love Devine."

HEALTH OFFICERS
RESISTED
George Knex, COlOred. Pulls a
Pistol on Or. VOORHEES, and
Officer Goodwin.
A GENERAL SCRAP RESULTED.

County Health Officer VOORHEES, and
Deputy sheriff Claud Godu in got into
di fficultias on a vaccination expedition
Friday afternoon.
DR.. VOORHEES, was called to the Dyer
farm south OF town, on account of the
appearance Of q case of smallpox among
some negroes. He took Officer Goodwin
along as helper, and ia accordance with
the resent Instructions given by tbs
Health Board began vaccinatinR every
one who lived close by. No trouble
was experienced until the home OF
George Knox, colored, was reached. As
the gentlemen approached the house
they were warned away. DIR. Voorhiss
asked if the negroes did not kr ow who
he was, when George Knox replied yes
he did know who they were, but they
should not come into his house.
Deputy Goodwin forced an entrance at
this juncture and found himself looking
down the barrel of a pistol held bv
George Knox. He clinched with the
negro and they had rough and tumble
fight on the floor, in which the officer
suffered a sprained thumb and bruist q
hand.
During the melee, Rachel Knox, a
daughter of George, secured her fathers
pistol and when DIR. VOORHEES, started to
the officer g assistance, he too. looked
into the pistols cannon-like mouth. The
doctor is said to have side-stepped out
of reach and upon hie disappearsnce. the
girl ran up stairs. jumped out window
and when last seen was making good
time toward the Tennessee line.
George Knox was brought 70 town
and yaucinated and lodged 10 Jail on a
charge of assault with pistol.

MULE DAY
The Crowd, The Buyers and
The Long Ears Were
Here.
PRICES OFF $40 TO SIS.

An unusually large first Monday crowt
assembled IN town Monday, and rhey
brought mules with them. In fact. the
mules began coming in Sunday in two
and three and droves. When the mar
ket opened, the public square and the
streets adjoining we're lined with mules,
good, bad and indifferent.
The market on fat mules was off from
$40 to 8l5, and still more on mules Out
Of condition. The demand, while moi
strong, absorbed all the good. fat mules
offered and some Of the others. but many
of the poorer class Of mules were carried
home.

T. N. Figuers' piano contest came to
a close SaLui day night, and the beauti'

Soap, Ointment and Pills
the Worlds Greatest
Skin Cures.
PRICE The SET ST
Complete Treatment for Every
humour, from PlmpleS
to SCrofuIa.

The agonizing itching and burning
of the skin, as in eczema the frightfrR

hair and crusting of the scalp, as in
SCALED head the facial Disagreement,
as in pimples and ringworm; the
awful suffering of infants and the
anxiety of WORKOUT parents, as In
milk crust, letter, and salt rheum, all
demand remedy of almost super
human virtues to successfully cope
with them. That Cuticura Soap, Oint-
ment, and Pills are such stands proven
beyond all doubt. No statement is
made regarding them that is not justi-
fed by the strongest evidence. The
purity and sweetness, the power to
afford immediate relief. the certainty
of speedy and permanent cure. the abb
solute safety and great economy, have
made them the standard skin cures
and humour remedies of the civilized
world.
The grandest testimonial that can
be offered the Cuticura remedies Is
their worldwide sale, due to the per-
sonal recommendations of those who
have used them. From small begin
ming in the simplest form, against
prejudice and opposition, against
monied hosts, countless rivals, and
trade Indifference, Cuticnra remedies
have become the greatest curatives of
their time, and, in fact, of all time,
for nowhere in the history of medicine
is to be found another approaching
them in popularity and sale. In every
cline and with every people they have
met with the same reception. The
confines of the earth are the only
limits to their growth. They have
conquered the world.

Should the Democratic caucus have

Year Ont, The New
Year In.

Many Columbiaps, especially the
young people, watched the old year die
and the new year come 10 Saturday
night. The advent.of the new year was
marked by the ringing of bells and the
blowing OF train and factory whistles.
Some prosaic souls, upon whose minds
the passing years make little inn
preston, were awakened by the noise,
and thinking there was another fire
near the depot, turned over and went
back to sleep again. There were of
course many good resolutions made:
some of " hich have already been bro
ken; some of which will be faithfully
adhered to.

Promptly at noon today the Fifty
fourth General Assembly OF Tennessee
will convene at the Capitol, the Senate
and House of Representatives meeting
in their respective chambers. Today s
session of both homes will be Of short
duration even should both perfect a

lhe Senate Will DE caIIed to order
by K. w. Thomas, of Humphreye
County, Assistant Clerk Of the last
Senate, 10 the absence Of Chief Clerk
James A. Kirby, who is in the Philip
pine Islands There was some doubt
among the Senators Sunday as to the
necessity of perfectIng a temporary Or
gsnizs ton, the opinion beng expressed
by several that Senator Cox should be
elected Immediately after the call to
order, the Clerk presiding during bis
election, which will be purely formal
though the roll of members will be
called. Should there be temporary
Speaker elected it is not improbable
that this honor will be conferred upon
d. e. Garrett, OF Robertson County,
who will be the Chairman of the Senate
caucus.
The members of the Senate will be
administered the constitutional oath
by member OF the Supreme tCourt
or the Court OF Chancery Appeals. On
Sunday night there was but one mem
Der OF the former court, Judge Wilkes.
10 this city, and It may be that there
will be no other here today. In this
event the osth will be administered
either by Judge Wilkes or a member
of the Court OF Appeals. Should Judge
Wilkes per form this duty in the House
aud there be no other member OF che
Supreme Court in the city, then a
member OF the Court of Chancery Ap.
peals would perform that service for
the Senate.
The Organization Of the Senate will
require but short time. After perma-
nent organization resola ton will be
adopted providing for the appointment
of three Senators tn wait on the Gov
ernor in cor junction with a similar
committee from the House of Repre-
seEsatives and inform him that the
General Assembly is organized and
ready to receive any communication
that he may have to make. This corz-

whefl the message of Gov. Frazier will
probably be transmitted. 1t will likely
be tomorrow before the customary res
olutions authorizing the Speaker to ap-
point Chaplain. doorkeepers and por-
ters is passed. Immediately after the
massage of this resolution the appoint
rnents will be announced. There are
warm fights for all the places and SEN
