stingy and perhaps there would be some poor to feed-there always had been 50 far.
 Then came the c4th day of Decem. Der. a heavy snowstorm and much embarrassment for the old couple. Each had secretly sent all the children presents and a letter. neither mention ing the other, and the lawyer had call cd on them and told them that it was time to drop the divorce business and make up or push 1t and have it over with. They almost drove him from the house, and he laughed as he went down the street.
 About noon John came in, gruf and shy. and put great armful of holly on the white kitchen table. She looked at him till he explained.
 May Carr give it to me. They had too much at the church. and she give me no chance to say 1 didn't want it. you know Mays way. She said the Christmas tree was the biggest the church ever had and there were more children needing things. She asked if you had anything pretty or useful you didn't want, and l said l would ask you
 They had missed the church woefui- ly and had always helped out with ey- crything. They had always been cheer fuI and charitable. This appeal touch cd them both.
 Mary rummaged about and sent an offering that rejoiced the hearts Of those who were trimming the tree. Jotin took it to the church. and every body shook hands with him and in the general gladness seemed to have for gotten that anything was wrong.
 About 1, while Mary was alone rest ing after putting up sil the holly. a telegram came for John She did not know where he was. and she suffered the usual agony of simple people un- accustomed to receiving telegrams. She dared not open 1t and imagined the death and burial Of all her children and grandchildren. one after the other.
 While she was in this frame of mind another message came. and the boy had scarcely gone when a third ar. rived Then she sent . neishbor's boy for her husband and received him al most fainfing- He was as frightened as she. but the frst read: Meet o'cIock train tonight Mary."

Where Christmas Trees Grow.
 It is said that at least three-fi -fifths of the 1,5OO,OOO or more Christmas trees used in America each season grow on the bleak hillsides of eastern and northern Maine. Thousands of young farmers and timbermen make good in comes by cutting and shipping the trees. The Christmas tree business in Maine began only about thirty years ago. with four schooners to carry the cargoes of trees. Now many times that number of vessels are engaged in the trade. Most of the trees sent from Maine are frs.

IN A GERMAN HOSPITAL.
Where the Christnas Angel visits
 Suffering ChilAren.

Where the Christnas Angel visits
 Suffering Chillres.
 In one of the German hospitals of our country is observed custom quite in accordance with the beautiful senti- ment the Germans weave about Christ mas.
 Christmas belongs to the children everybody knows that-but 1t belongs to them in . deeper. more beautiful sense than everybody" knows. One Is rensinded of it, however. if he wit nesses such a scene as is portrayed in this hospital on Christmas eve. One of the nurses dresses in long. soft How ing robe of white, bearing In her hand a fir bough covered with snow. The snow is cotton sprinkled with diamond dust. This is the Christmas angel.
 The children are told of tho gentle visitor and wait In their little cots. When darkness is out1ide they bear the strains of sweet music In the distance. The nurses are singing Christmas car ols. and the sounds come through open doors. Then the Christmas angel comes. She goes 10 each little cot. bending over each little form to listen to the whispered secrets. Each one tells her what he wants on Christmas day. Then. with . tender word. she passes out. and to the sound of the car ols they an fall asIeep-those who can slip away from pain.
 When the day dawns all the children are taken into the kindagartsu- Some are carried. some are rolled and soma can walk. Sure enough. each finds there what he asks for-druDs and dolls and trumpets and books- On long. low table Is plate for each one. filled with candles and queer little Ger man czkes. On one wall is . tabIsau cf the Nativity made of smaIl wax 1guer. and s painting on the van compisfse the perspective of hills snd shepherds and the guiding stsr. Ringing from the wall sn the center of the ward is q large hoop covered with laurel At in- fervals around 1t are set lighted can- dIes. It Is suspended from tAs csfnns hy four wide ribbons.

A RULING AGAINST
 GREENE AND GAYN0R
It is Held that They Were Properly
 Extradited.

Savannah. Ga, Jan 13.-Judge Speer in the federal court this morn inS Immediately upon it's converting rendered his opinion on special plea of counsel Of Greene and Gaynor as to the Jurisdiction of the court. This opinion was adverse to the defendants whose petition that they be discharged from custody was denied.
 The court in delivering it's opinion said: "'The plea alleges that the court is without jurisdiction for the reasons therein stated. They are that the de- fendsnts were lately under the sov- ereignty Of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland and that un- der the treaty and under eXtraditiOn proceedings between this government and that of Great lIritain the defend ants were extradicted to be tried upon the charges of participation in fraud by receiving money and knowing the same to have been fradulently ob- tained."
 After citing many authorities and reviewing the arguments the judge said: "Our conclusion is that the ex- tradition was amply authorized by the treaty, that the prisoners were extra dited for alleged crimes indictable in both countries, that the language of the present indictment is In all sub stantial respects adequate to secure their constitutional rights to full in formation of all the charges against them and accord them a fair and righteous trial so far as the indictment goes that the plea must be overruled and disallowed.'
 The defense damurred to this ruling and was overruled.
