A CHRISTMAS OPPORTUNITY.
A Santa Claus whose Pack should he Gen.
erOusIy Filled.

TIC THB EDITOR or THE SUH-Sir: Ono Q
more the time has come for me to speak to
your readers on behalf OF the little ones and
needy mothers to whom It has become my
privilege to minister at Christmas time. In
narrow prison cells men will be thinking Bit
terly, hopelessly and with regret unspeakable
OF home-homes from which they are sepa-
rated by long dreary terms Of years, and in
these sad homes mothers will be explaining
to their little ones that because father is
away there can be no Christmas.
To many aman the bitterest thought at this
Christmas time will be the fact that his dear
ones will be cold and hungry, and II is to
these that we OF the Volunteer Prison League
will specially turn our thought In helpfulness.
Having found them and learned their needs
through the men among whom ! work in prison.
we are able in many instances to give them
not only a happy Christmas, but to practically
aid them in such q way as to lift the unendura-
BILE burden from their shoulders. We have
on our books the names OF hundreds OF little
children thus left fatherless. and by close in
sight into these homes we have come TO real
lie the struggle OF the mothers, who have to
work desperately hard to provide the barest
necessities OF life and have nothing left over
to make this a festive season.
Our little friends in happier homes can help
US with the gifts OF toys. dolls and clothing,
and I am glad TO say that In the past these

Of clothing, shoes, stockings. toys and grocer
les and we give to each family chickens or
a turkey for the home dinner. As these
families have been visited or careful inquiries
been made by letter where they live at a
distance, we are able to make our help really
At each need.
Last year your readers responded to our
appeal for funds in N way that enabled us to
give a wonderful Christmas 90 many who had
given up Sa nta Claus as dead and gone, so far
ashley were concerned. Donations OF money,

New FORK

Two things may be deduced from the
honorable CHAUNcEYM M. DEPEw'ssurvey
of his career Of fifty years Of adulation
and two years Of weighing him in the
balance. One is that, presuming IN the
brevity OF the public memory, he assumes
that he has lived his notoriety down and
can resume his old standing as an Amer
lean Senator; and the other is that he
deems himself to be good enough to
represent the State Of New York in spite
Of that notoriety.
Mr.. DEpEw says that for fifty years he
had nothing but fiattery and praise from
the press In a measure that is true.
But the press had not found Mr.. DEPEw
out. He was too well intrenched behind
his -fifty-seven varieties (more or less)
Of directories. Moreover, he manu-
featured much Of the flattery and praise
himself. As his own press agent he
never had an equal. But the amazing
thing after all is that he has come out
of the ordeal Of censure and judgment
with not a feather Of his egotism and
impudence wilted. Truly, CHAUNcEY NJ.
DEPEw is an abnormal type. The law
books presume that a child of eight
knows the difference between right and
wrong: DEPEw at seventy-two cannot
make the distinction. Regarding himself
as rehabilitated, although the demand
for his resignation is louder than ever,
he takes the front Of the stage as an
authority on legislation.
Mr.. DEPEw's self-projection on the
screen indicates that he has no idea of fire.
signing the place honored by SEWARD and
SILAs WRIGHT. But, going back to the
v Of his reelection in December, 1904,
that is not surprising. There was at the
time considerable opposition to his re-
naming in public life, even before he
was found out. He gayly dismissed the
doubts concerning himself with the char
acteristic sentiment: Optimism wins"
Optimism is still DEPEw's strong suit.
DEPEw is Senator, and so is PLATT,
who said spontaneously with DEPEw's
tribute to optimism: Il never retire when
other people try to force me to retire.
/ probably shall remain in the United
States Senate as long as ] can"

Abreast Of tho Times.

Twenty, or ten, or even five years ago,
the worthy dealers in kosher meat who
have appealed to THEODORE RoosE-
WELT to help them out Of the scrape into
which rising prices and the thrift OF their
customers have brought them would
have been laughed at for their simplicity
and innocence. What tradesman would
have sought the aid OF GROVER CLEvE-
LAND or BENJAMIN HARRISON or WILLIAM
MCKINLEY to compose the difference be-
tween him and his customers? Fear OF
ridicule would have deferred any who
might have been imaginative enough to
conceive such a plan.
But the butchers are not laughed at
to-day, nor do they enter their plea at
Washington rs a last, a desperate resort
in dire need. They have not exhausted
every other means of settling the dis
turbances in their business. In fact,
they have done nothing TO bring peace in
their trade. When troubles came to them
their first thought was Of the President
at Washington. They turned to him as
naturally as a child to its parent or a
robbed mar TO the police.

This is a cheering note for those who

responsible for the deaths of patients Of
sensitive temperament who had undergone
operations and needed absolute quiet TO

Not q Chair Leg Artist.

1t is ~dispiriting to see a Southern news
paper. the Raleigh Times, unjust to a
rising and risen Southern statesman, the
Hon. JEFF DAVIS. 1t calls this foe Of
high combed ROSTERS and the high
collared crowd" a chair leg artist. .
The innuendo is that Mr.. DAVIS Uses the
leg Of a chair in his controversies with
opponents. We are not familiar with all
the legends that cluster about the illus
trious Arkansan, but history shows him
as nc chair leg artist. At Little Rock
in 1908 Judge CARROLL ID. WooD caught
him by the collar and struck at him.
There was no fight and no chair leg.
In 1905 former Congressman HUGH DINs-
MORE battered his skull and blackened
his eyes. Governor DAvIs's weapon
was a cane. Attorney-Genefal ROGERS,
who threatened to kill him if he said
certain things, appears to believe that
sprinting is Mr.. DAvIs's best weapon.
Mr.. ROGERS averred that by pointing a
corncob pipe at the Governor he could
make him jump into the Arkansas River.
This assertion must be taken as tropical
and extreme. 1t mars the rapidity,
nervousness and wild impetuosity of
Mr.. DAvIs's speech and action. He is
a poet and an actor, but his rank on the
amusement stage is higher than and
different from that Of a chair leg artist.
No timorous Senator need fear that Mr..
DAVIS when he enters the Senate will be
armed with a chair leg or any other
dangerous implement save his own voice
and his strong desire to injure the gam
blers' of the Cotton Exchange. Mr..
DAVIS has brought himself into many
rows by the eagerness and warmth of
his speech; but he is a man Of peace.
When some playful adversary threatens
to put him out of the way he meekly
declares his willingness to DO a victim.
All he asks is that his epitaph may be
properly civil to a friend of the people,
and especially the people Of the hills and
valleys of his home county. He is usually
sure that the other fellow will take his
life before the campaign is over. Mr..
DAVIS is always ready to bare his bosom
to the foe.
AZ q % % eAo ~ q oA NNodt SON viii buIy
me In the old graveyard and write on my headstone
the motto: HI died a martyr 10 the common
people,"
Is this the language Of a man who
wrenches off chair legs and handles
them, so to speak, with the oppressors Of
the common peoplep Mr.. DAVIS is a
martyr, not a prosecutor. II Captain
BEN TILLMAN should point a corncob
pipe at him he might rush to the Poto-
mac. He runs well. To say this is to
make no imputation against his ap-
proved valor. Who can tell what a poet,
a neurasthenic, will do?
Yet a song in another than his usual
key may be expected of him. He has
~concussed and contorted himself into the
Senate. The only sensation he can now
produce is to keep quiet and sing small.
Can he do that without disappointing the
common people? At any rate, there is
nc chair leg up his sleeve.

NICHE FOR A DEAD HOOSIER.
Indiana Undecided as 10 whose Statue II
shall Place In Statuary Hall.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 3.-There is a niche in
Statuary Hall which the State of Indiana
is entitled to fill under the act of Congress
inviting each State 20 furnish statues Of
two Of her citizens who rendered the coun-
try distinguished service in a civil or
military capacity. The Hoosier State
placed in one nook the statue of her war
Governor, Oliver p. Morton, a civilian.
At the time the Legislature authorized
the Morton statue there was some sort OF
private understanding among the legis-
lators that the figure Of Thomas A. Hen
bricks should in course of time take its place
beside thai of Morton, thereby giving
REPRESENTATION TO both Democrats and
Republicans. But this agreement over
looked the States military heroes and
took no note Of her literary celebrities.
The Legislature of l902-O3 passed a reso-
luton, introduced by State Senator James
s. Barcus Of Messages and Papers Of the
Presidents" notoriety, authorizing the plac-
ing of a statue OF Gen. George Rogers Clark
in Statuary Hall. At that time the Hoosiers
were reading Alice of Old Vincennes, " by
Maurice Thompson, and Virginia Harmed
was playing it. Gen. Clark, one of the
characters, seemed an attractive historical
figure. but Cove Durbin vetoed the bill
authorizing the execution OF a statue Of
him.
The ambition to fill the vacancy in Statuary
Hall remained quiescent until recently,
when the members Of Gen. Lew Nallaces
civil war regiment started a movement
to lave the efflgy of the distinguished
diplomat, author and soldier authorized.
Friends of Gen. Benjamin Harrison have
now met the Wallace suggestion with the
contention that Gen. Harrison is the States
distinguished son and as such should keep
Morton company in the American Valhala.
Meanwhile friends OF Thomas A. Hem
bricks insist that the alleged compact with
them shall be kept. The whole subject
will be threshed out in the ndian Legis-
lature this winter. Gen. Wallace's friends
are most active. They claim that as
soldier, statesman, author and dlp.omat
he is a more representative Hoosier than
either Harrison or Hendricks, and besides
he was born in Indiana.
A waggish Hoosier has suggested that II
the militant figure Is to be insisted upon
the State might memorialize Senator
Albert j. Beveridge in his fayorite attitude
Of handing a lemon to the Fairbanks Presi-
dental boom, but the resolution OF Con-
gress contemplated memorializing only
the departed, and neither the Vice-Presi-
dent nor Senator Beveridge is willing 20
admit he Ia a dead one.
