 Lines written in memory of Mrs J. Derwin.
 A soul has departed from this world
 One whose loss we all deplOre;. Death has called one young and fair Her lips are still forevermore. The master said "My will be done, And his will is for the best; Let us hope that her spirit pure,
 In the heavenly home shall fint rest. To a loving husband and infant son, Great and sad the loss will be:
 List little one, tho you won't under stand,
 Someone shall take care of thee. To her parents both kind and loyal. Her demise they will always rN gret:
 Her years were few upon this earth Yet her memory they will ne'er for gS-.
 Sisters and brother they will feel | The sorrow death must brlng:N Devoted were they to the departed one,
 And memories of her will witt them cling. Last. but not least the many friends Who grieve for the one so dear; I And all must say their last farewell But a prayer uttered often we shal hear. May the soul departed rest in peace
 And angels guide the one we love. But we will all meet again some day
 When We shall be judged by Go'
 above.

of food. The usual Christmas dinner
at the palace was abandoned, as Com.
mander Booth was convinced that the
recipients of the gifts preferred to
take them to their own homes and pre-.
pare their dinners after their own
fashion. This made it possible to add
1000 bags to the amount usually dis

In the afternoon occurred the annu-
al Christmas tree and distribution of
many toys to the children. Com

suffered more this year than last, as
the price of foods and rents had been
advanced. In many Of the institu-

Proposed Tariff Revision.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 25.-These pro-
posals~ regarding tariff revision have
been laid before the president by the
republican members of the house of
representatives: That there be no ex-
ira session of the Goth congress to re.
wise the tariff: that the republican
party pledge itself in its next national
platform to revise the tariff at a
special session Immediately following
the Inauguration of the president on
March /, 1909: that to facilitate that
revising a tariff commission be au-
thorized by the 60th congress.
President Roosevelt has not reached
any decision as to this plan. He is
seeking counsel of friends in both
tariff camps, and will make known his
intention later.
Thus far the "standpatters' have
high hopes that they will be able to
bring the president to their way OF
thinking. High tariff men all over
the country are urging the president
to "stand pat with them, while the
element In favor of tariff revision is
very urgent that the president shall
call a special meeting Of the mex con-
gress to meet not later than April,
and to continue at work until the tar
if has been "revised by its friends
AS matters now stand, the ''stand'
patters" have a trihe the better Of it
They held many conferences, and de-
cided that if tariff revision was no
to be avoided on the eve of the presi
Dental election. there must be prac
tically unanimous action by republi
cans in the house.

Strenuous Year For Railroads.

CHICAGO, Dec. 26.-The year 1906
will be long remembered rs one of
trials and tribulations Of railways
and officials that had broken the laws.
Partaking OF the zeal displayed by
President Roosevelt and his admins
tration in moving against law break.
ers and further stimulated to action
by the direct orders Of Attorney Gen.
errl Moody, and even from the presi.
dent himself, the various federal dis
trict attorneys during the year have
prosecuted more legal proceedings
against railroads and their officials
than aver before within an equal per.
iod in the history of the country.
Most OF these suits were brough,
under the Elkins law against giving
or receiving rebates, and in most in.
stances they were instituted not only
against the railways and their officials
who gave the rebntes, but also agains,
the individuals or corporations tina,
| solicited or accepted them. In mos,
cases prosecutions were successful,
the fines assessed aggregating man!
hundred of thous ands Of dollars. Two

A I'M iOn i'isumist.

BUFFALO, N. ", Dec. %. - The
greatest bigamist in the world, a mar
who is accused of having than
100 wives, and who has confessed to
marrying % women and robbing most
of them of all their savings, is in GUS
tody here tonight, 1t is believed. He
has been sought for all over the world.
The prisoner is supposed to be the
notorious George A. Witzhof, who
has married twice as many women as
Infamous Johann Hoch, who was ex.
ecuted in Chicago for numbering some
of his victims. The man is known as
Charles John Anderson, a name un.
der which Witzhotf married some of
his victims, and his accuser, Mrs,
Adell Wagar of this city, has repeat.
eddy identified pictures of Witzhotf as
those of the mar who married her and
robbed her Of thousands of dollars
before deserving her four years ago.
1t is now planned to notify the po'
lice of every city in the United States
where Witzhotf made his bigamous
marriages, and to have rs many O.
the wives come to Buffalo as possible
to try to identify the prisoner.
