year the states were at Christmas time
considering the ratification of articles or
confederation. December Is, 1881, the dele
gates TO the convention at Philadelphia
had assembled and were framing the
glorious constitution that guarantees to all
citizens life, liberty and the pursuit OF hap
plness.
When the next Christmas had come
around the constitution had two days be-
fore been ratified by eleven Of the states
and the people were discussing the action
Of those states which had refused OF ne
elected to get in line. But I'm 1883 Wash
ington had been elected the first president
OF the United States, the constitutional
congress had been superseded by the first
congress under the constitution and the
people OF the country were looking for
ward to the ceremonies Of the inaugural.
December g. 1900, Frenchmen in Paris
were talking OF an attempt that had been
made to assassinate Bonaparte by an in
fernal machine. December o. 1904, Spain
and England were at war. The following
Christmas, 1896, France and Russia had
decided upon peace. December Is, 1907, the
people Of the United States were agtteted
by a congressional bill to. abolish the slave
o. trade. In 1872 another war was being
waged between England and the United
states The treaty Of Client, by which that
war was ended, was signed Christmas eve.

Snare and DeIusiOn.

On that one subject, at any rate, the
tramp seaman refuses to allow himself TO
be CARRIED away by his imagination. He
and his shipmates, with one accord, agree
that Christmas day at sea is a snare and
a delusion, but why it is not the happy and
lively affair the landsman has painted he
cannot explain. There is a tradition among
them that in old days great feasts were
given on the whalers, but the jack tar Of
that period hardly regarded the whaleman
as a sailor. 1t lie a curious fact that Christ
mas has no place in the tRr's folklore. In
a book on the legends and superstitions of
the sea and of sailors, written some years
ago by Lieutenant Bassett of the navy, who
had delved deeply into both ancient and
modern authorities on Che subject, all the
author could find to say about Christmas
day was that no fishing is done In Sweden
on Christmas, but its nets are set that night
for luck" and that ships models figure in
one Of tho Brittany "pardons." Good Fri
day appears 70 have a far better show, for
there the Portuguese sailors fog an ehisy
OF Judas Iscariot, but, on the other hand,
the seaman's superstition that II is unlucISy
to start on a voyage on Friday has nothing
whatever to do with the crucihxion as il
generally supposed. Freys, the daughter q
Niord, chief god Of the ocean is responsible
for the tradition. She was worshipped by
sailors before the introduction OF Christi
anity, and Friday was her fete day.
It seems strange that when the teach
inSs OF the church transferred the vows
and offerings that had been made TO
heather gods 20 the saints no attention
should have been paid TO the great feast Of
the Christian year. The conservative mar
liner still retains memories OF the power
ful gods whom his pagan predecessors
worshipped. Long after the Norsemen be-
came Christians they called upon Thor
when they found themselves in difficulties,
although they had been taught that Christ
stilled the waves and possessed power to
save them from peril. But Christ's birth
day does not enter into the sailors legen-
Diary lore, and It seems impossible to dis
cover the reason for its not doing so.

There is one thing that German sailors
who have lived on the Baltic avoid on
Christmas day II they possibly can-and
that is sneezing. Why they should have
selected that particular day to refrain from
the act, tradition does not relate but then
the same can be said of pretty nearly every
sailorman's superstition.-New York Even

his adherents could not foresee the victory

continental army at Valley Forge, where
the shabbiy clothed and poorly fed sol

Washington was with her gallant husband,

the great majority of sailors are
concerned, a myth created by the
IEYkY9I landlubber and purely a nc-
Se4S ton of the brain the phantom
ship. To be sure, some notice is made Of
the festival on board the big passenger
boats, and the man-of-warsman gets better
rations on that day; but the ordinary Jack
Tar, to him who mans the cargo ships,
whether under sail or steam, Christmas
day means little or nothing, unless he
should happen to be ashore. It is essen
TALLY lard feast, and its celebration at
sea appears TO be ignored by the ship
owner. More often than not Jack does
not realize that the day is Christmas. His
attention may be called to the fact II he

but 20 the British sailor even this luxury
is denied. thanks to the benevolent solicit
tuds Of the Temperance union.
AS general rule, however, the fo'csle
on a tramp vessel has TO be satisfied on
Christmas day with the same old tough
and bitter beef. the same old biscuit;
the same fare upon which he has been
feeding for months. There is no time for
him TO envy the lOt-at least for that
Christmas day, IL he recalls that It IS

gregate, buttonhole one tar after another,

all the traditions with which the ocean
teens, the Jack tar has made no attempt
to clothe Christmas with folklore. There
is but a plank between him and eternity,
and It is the realization Of this, according
to Gibbons, that has much to do with the
broad grain Of superstition at one time I'M
doubtedly lurking in his nature. But it is
in the winds, the clouds the waves, sun,
moon and stars that he seeks for signs,
and upon them his sentimentalism settles
when he is at sea. Why he has not spared
some of it for Christmas day passeth un-

On the Big Liners.
The celebration of Christmas on board
the great transatlantic liners appears to
be due more to the hospitality of the ship
owners than to any sentiment begotten by
the sailors out of the sea. Strangely enough,
although Englshmen have the credit Of OBJ
serving Christmas day more merrily than
any other people, yet less attention Is paid
to Christmas day on board the British
ocean steamers than on the German and
French. Englishmen, it is true, are not

A PortentiOuH Day.

December Is, 1918, was another porten-
tious day for the Americans The British
we're preparing TO enter Savannah, having
obtained the services Of a disloyal negro,
who was guiding them 20 a weak point
in the American lines. A battle was inn
pending, all were filled with dread and the
celebrations Of Christmas lacked the spOn-

~ - era few important events have
kOSn4ol happened on Christmas day, yet
60 the festival has been preceded
and followed by decisive battles, by trans
actions OF mighty import and by move
ments Of nations that have affected the fu-
ture Of millions OF people. From the earli-
est day It seems to have been understood
that wars were to be temporarily sus-
pended and that truce was to exist until
after the celebration Of the birth OF Christ.
There have been exceptions to this, OF
course, and the exceptions have in each
instance been remarkable. The 1900 Christ
mas will be remembered and recorded IN
histories for the benefit of those 70 come
as the day which recorded the restoration
OF tranquility between Spain and the
United States, which gave 20 the Fillpinos
and Porto Fdcans freedom they could
never have hoped to gain for themselves.
Going back to the first observance OF
Christmas day II lie found that December Is
was not looked upon as the birthday OF
Christ. Until $50 A d. various days were
celebrated by various people, but Pope
Julius caused an investigation OF ell the
authorities 10 be made with the result
that December Is was decided upon. The
first observances were very simple, but as
the years passed aud Christian people in
creased in numbers the day became one
OF more Importance. In 2a3 while devout
Romans we're celebrating Christmas their
emperor, Marcus AuTelius Carus. was
killed by lightning beyond the Tigris De
eember %. 4s6, Clovis, the first Christian
king OF France, was crowned at Rheims
On the same day in the year so Charles,
king OF France, was crowned by Pope Leo
at Rome as emperor OF the west. and the
people combined the festivities of Christ
mas with those incident to the imperial oc-
casiOn. December %, $40, Leo, emperor OF
Constantinople, was sssassinated. He was
an Armenian by birth, but by his valor
became general OF the Roman armies. He
prevailed upon his troops 10 proclaim him
emperor The Christians were greatly in
censed al this and Il was decided that he
should die at Christmas which he did.

RevolutionarY TImes.


Christmas night 1776, Washington crossed
the Delaware and the next day occurred
the battle Of Trenton. The Hessians were
surprised. They took Il for granted that
the revolutionary army would rest upon
its arms and allow them TO spend their
Christmas in peace, but Washington con-
cluded that the deed would be bettered
by the day and he loaded his small army
into boats and crossed the icy waters Of the
muddy river. He reckoned correctly and
the result Of his daring maneuver was
that he attacked Colonel Rahlle at sun
rise The commanding officer and twenty
OF the enemy were killed and 1000 taken
prisoners, Two Americans were killed and
two were frozen to death Washington's
valor, however, saved the American cause.
He had found 1t difhcult 10 secure recruits,
but this coup brought him thousands OF
