GLORIOUS IS CHRISTMAS DAWN.

With today dawns another
Christmas. Designed to common
crate the birth of Christ, and so
accepted by Christians, it has
come to be recognized by all as
day of family reunions, a day of
charity and love, a season when
those who are comfortably circum-
stanced feel particularly disposed
to contribute to charitable pur-
poses, to relieve distress and to
bring cheer to their less fortunate
fellows:
The annunciation of the angels
to the shepherds on the plains of
Bethlehem of the birth of one
whose advent was designed to
bring "peace on earth and good
will to men," struck the keynote
of the present universal observa-
tion Of the Christmas season.
We contend, and clash, and
quarrel, at other times, we may
pursue selfish objects, we may be
harsh, exacting and intolerant at
other seasons, but with the most
obdurate there is generally soft
ening and a relenting on this par
ticular day.
When it approaches we lay aside
our everyday cares, even our pref
udices relax for the time, and we
try to forget our differences with
others and our resentments.
The most beautiful feature Of
our usual Christmas observance is
the part which the children play
in it. Christmas has come to be
essentially and fundamentally a
children's day.
On this occasion we seek to re-
lieve them from care and to bring
cheer and joy to the little hearts.
The most delightful arts and con-
trivanoes are brought to bear to
assist IN this work. Santa Claus
comes to the sleeping babes and
amid the ringing of bells, the jim
gle of sleighs and the flash of rein
deer hoofs, he fills the suspended
stocking with the most marvellous
of toys and playthings.
For, to the Christian world this
joyful day celebrates the birth of
a little child, child whose i'm
press upon humanity has been felt
with increasing power as the ages
have rolled by.
In the wider sense and spirit
the day has become one which
men of all creeds deligh to cele-
brate and honor. In the direction
which these observances usually
take there is no suggestion of code
or creed. "Peace on earth; good
will to men," is a sentiment in
which all may join, for no lottier
sentiment and no nobler purpose
can engage the thoughts and eff
forts of rational beings.
That is the expression Of the
Christmas spirit to all mankind,
and that is why Christmas is the
chiefest of all the holidays in the
calendars of Christendom.

WILL FOUND In
BRIDES GARTER
It Had Remained In Odd HXding Place
For Seventy Years, Through
Three Generations.

A will drawn by Jules Chambord Of
Montreal seventy years ago has been
found in a garter worn by his bride
and subsequently used by three men,
bers Of his family or descendants on
their wedding days. The garter was
made In France and was worn several
times before it came into the posses
sion Of Chambord.
At the time Chambord was married
he owned little property which he
agreed to leave to his wife in event of
his death. 1t was known that he drew
a will, but when he died in 1881 the
document could not be found, and the
property was equally divided between
the widow and two children, Henry
and Marguerite. Henry married and
was the father Of four children. Jules,
the eldest, married a woman named
Laporte The issue of this marriage
was six children. all Of whom died of
smallpox except Henry. To Henry was
handed down the garter, his mother on
her deathbed terling him to present it
to his bride elect and enjoin her to
wear it on her wedding day, as it
would bring luck. This he promised
to do.
Henry became engaged to Marie st.
Gabriel and on the day they were to
be married gave the garter to her. In
appearance it looked much like brace
let, only wider than is commonly worn
It was made of heavy silver band
with a gold buckle, to which it was at
tached by double hinge. After the
wedding 1t was noticed that the hinge
had been sprung. and the garter was
sent to a Montreal jeweler to be re-
paired. 1t was the jeweler who dis
covered the will.
In removing the platinum pin which
held the buckle an inner rim Of the
garter slipped from its place, and the
document, a thin parchment, was dis
closed. The writing was still legible.
and the will carried out the promises
of Jules Chambord to leave all his
property to his wife. AS nothing re-
mains of the property the will is Of
course valueleSs.

YAKIMA HAS BIG APPLE CROP
Estimated That Yield Will Total 1900
Carloads This Present
Season.

1t is now estimated that the produc-
ton of apples in the Yakima valley
this year will be the largest in the his
tory of the northwest, says the Va
kima Republic. Men inclined to be
conservative say that there will be
1900 carloads, the greater number of
which a market must be found for.
This year the apple crop will be large
in every part of America and it is
probable the price will be less than
half that of last year.
However, the fancy stock of the
Yakima orchards will command the
usual good price in the New York
markets. Two years ago, when there
was a record breaking crop in the
eastern states, the Yakima red apple
went into the markets of the big
cities and sold at rates that equalled
in some instances three times as much
as was obtained by the growers Of
those states.
Some people who do not know the
reputation of the Yakima apple in the
east fear that the prices will be so
low that they will not be worth mar
keting this year, but there never was
time, except during the hard times,
that the Yakima apple grower did not
product.

SETTLES WATER MIDDLE
Judge Stewart Of Boise Friend Of
Poor Farmers
APPORT|onS WATERS Of BOISE RIVER
EAST GETS oNE-THIRD OF AN
INCH PER ACRE IN DRY
SEASON..
APP0RTIoNs WATERS OF BOISE RN:R

BOISE, Aug. 13.-Judge George H.
Stewart Saturday made an order OF
great moment to ranchers in the val
ley of the Boise and which it is be-
lieved will be the means of saving
many thousands of dollars worth of
crops this season.
The order IS to the effect that for
the balance of this season each appro-
priator of water taken from Boise
river shall be entitled to one-third of
the water allotted in the decree made
by the court last fall.
This order was made on account
of the showings that water in the
bitches is now unusually low and that
many ranchers under last falls decree
are now deprived entirely of water;
that not only crops but also stock and
in instances families are suffering.
Under Judge Stewards temporary
adjustment everyone in the valley
may have one-third of an inch of
water per acre and it is believed that
under that arrangement the suffering
will cease and the season pass with
out any great losses to crops.
Some Of the big water users object
to the plan and have talked of taking
an appeal, but the great majority seem
to be very we'll satisfied.
