MESSAGE TO CONGRESS

Washington, Dec. 4.-President
Roosevelt's message was sent to both
houses OF congress shortly after they
convened this morning and its read
ing occupied the greater part of the
session Of each body. Previous to its
receipt there was much speculation
as to probable recommendations OF
various questions Of importance. The
appearance OF the messenger bearing
tho Official document occasioned a
hush in both houses. and close atten-
ton was given the reading. FREE
quently there were demonstrations OF
approval as the president through the
message gave expressions OF emphati-
cal cases, these signs OF approval as
a rule coming from the Republican
side OF the chambers. The greatest
amount OF interest seemed to be mani
tested when reference was made to
the Japanese question. though there
was equally close attention when the
sections referring TO the corporations
the railroad question and the ship
subsiEy were read. The reading OF
the prssident's visws on the divorce
question caused murmurings N the

The Little Hunch-Back's
Christmas.

A long time ago, in little -four
ishing village, there lived a lonely
widow with little hunch-back boy
They were very poor and hardly had
the necessities of life; although she
was a very pious lady and her little
boy was very ambitious and loved to
work, but he could not get anything
to do aud he always went by the name
of 1.-The little hunch-back"
1t was Christmas eve and he was
passing down the street, looking at
the beautiful, decorated homes, and
he could hear the gleeful laugh of
the children shouting Merry Xmas. -
His heart grew sad as he thought of
their warm homes and their good
things TO eat. And oh, how he wish
ed that he could get his mother a
warm shawl 10 wrap around her frail
form, because she had not been well
for some time
AS he was walking along, thinking
Of his sad fate and hearing the
shouts of Merry Xmas" everywhere,
he saw something before him and
