CHRISTMAS EVE in PARIS.
Picturesque Scenes at the Madeleine,
Historic French Church.

Picturesque Scenes at the Madeleine,
Historic French Church.
They drove to the Madeleine through
streets already full of life and move
ment of hurrying crowds, darling fig
ures now plunged in the black shad-
ows and now slipping out into the full
glare of the clustered lights. The big
perspective Of the Place de la Con
corde, thickly sOwn with lamps, was
shot through with glistening reflections
from the tops of carriages, the arcade
Of the Rue de Rivoli was brilliant as
stage setting. the hotels in the broad
Rue Royale were ablaZe it'll light, and
far at the cad of the street, where the
lofty portico of the Madeleine showed
clear against the starry SIX, a hundred
sparks twinkled from the cabs fitting
along the boulevard.
The steady roll of W. els merged
with the varying notes of horns in
motors and the sound OF talk and
laughter from the sidewalks. and all
blended in a great hummng symphony,
struck through with the rattllng, syn
copated clack-clack of hoofS upon the
asphalt, like the staccati of sharp
drums.
The crowd at the Madel A>.e was al
most impossible. but SOL chow they
gained the steps. the vestibule, and
were swept in the solid pack of men
and women through the door at the
right. The great floor was filled with
a throng rs varied as Paris itself.
Piety and Tie idlest curiosity. youth
ard age, came together. AS the pro
cesSion came in sight its song was
joined by the organ in the sanctuary,
and the music rose louder and fuller
III single Godlike voice ranging down
from the dazzling altar.
Suddenly. like artillery, the great or
gan overhead crashed out in volume
OF sound That flooded the whole vast
interior like i wave. sweeping over
the heads Of the kneeling crowd and
mounting 70 the shadOWy arches Of
the roof The very conclusion took
the listeners breath away and in the
rec0il men and women burst into
tears, and pillows Of emotional excite
melt rolled back and forth through the
church. = Winfield Scott Moody in

STOPPED THE OVATION.
Richard Wagner's Peculiar Expert
ence In Vienna.

ence In Vienna.
When Wagner was at the height OF
his popularity he visited Vienna. Bar
empire, was Informed that the Prus-
sian party intended to give him an i'm
mense serenade-a serenade which
would have the air of German protest
against the tendency of the ministry to
make the union Of Hungary and Aus
tria more intimate. The demonstration
promised to arouse strong feeling.
"Your excellency is warned" said
the chancellors advisers. 1T is impos-
sible to stop this manifestation unless
Wagner goes away, and he loves ova-
tons too well. Nothing will induce him
10 depart"
''You think So" said Beust. with a
SMILE
An hour later Wagner was invited to
dine with the chancellor He was fiat
tered by the invitation and accepted it.
After dinner, at which Beust was de-
lightfully affable and entertaining. the
chancellor remarked: Herr Wagner,
are you interested in autographs:
have some very curious ones to show
you" And he opened Il portfolio where
We're letters OF Ealmerston, Bismarck.
Napoleon Ill. Heine and others.
Suddenly turning to a paper, dated
1913, he said: "Ah. look at this. It is
very curious What would your friend
his hiGhness the king Of Bavaria say if
this paper. which would be significant
in connection with the poiiticaI sere
made which, the Germans are going to
give you, should be published tomor
row in the Vienna papers?'
The composer examined the paper
and recognized, with surprise. an old
proclamation Of one Richard Wagner,
who. an ardent revolutionist in 1913,
had proposed to the youth Of that time
to set fire to the palace of the king of
SaXony. He saw his autograph and
! that it might be the means of getting
him into serious trouble
Every curious, is it not, Herr Wag-
ner?' said the minister.
Every curious, your exce!lency," re
piled his guest.
The next morning Richard Wagner
left Vienna, reca..ed to B1ireuth by

MAKING WAMPUM.

A Process That Requires Both Pa
thence and Skill.
With certain tribes wampum is still
highly priced and necklaces are worn
By men. women and children whel
they are the fortunate SposseSsors o
them. To make wampum various kinds
of shells are used white and those
having a lavender hue being most
liked
The thin shells are broken into little
pieces and by aid of nippers are made
as nearly round rs possible. Whea
each piece is drilled in the center. the
old time fire kindling style of drill be-
ing used, the shells are then strung and
rolled with the hand on Il fiat stone,
which grinds them until they ar"
smooth and even.
Comparatively few Indians among
those who prize wampum beads most
highly have the skill or patience to
make them. even though they had the
materials. The fact is there are but
few wampum bead makers IN the coua-
try, and it often happens that long Pill.
grimages must be made to secure thu
requisites for really fine beads. and, ~
with the white mans trinkets. that
which is "far fetched and dear bought"
is most sought after for OrnamentatOn.
Around some Of the ancient ruins

is probable that they We're deposited

Christmas In Guam,

Christmas was celebrated in Guam
last year in as true American style as
the possibilities of the situation would
permit. Great interest was taken by
the Americans in celebrations for the
native children. A number Of enter
tainments were provided. A feature
was floating Christmas tree, mag
nificently decorated, which was parad-
ed through the streets of Agana drawn
by six plumed mules with costumed
outriders and preceded by native
band and from which Santa Claus dis
tributed abundance of good cheer.

oxygen and Mushrooms.

A singular way OF removing oxygen
from the air hv the aid of plant is
as follows: Inside a glass bell jar, sus-
pended over water, is placed a mush-
room, and sunlight is allowed to fall
upon the plant. The mushroom alb
serbs the oxygen from the air in the
jar, and the carbonic acid formed dur
ing the process is absorbed by the wa
ter, which gradually rises in the jar
