Enjoying Christmas.

Bings-"Good morning, Wings, did
you have a merry Christmas?"
Wings-"Oh, no. not very. We went
up to my daughters In the morning
and took along deed to that Wall
street block I have been wanting her
to have. She would get 1t anyway, in
time, and l thought | might as well
celebrate Christmas right. We had
dinner there. but I ate too much and
was sick all night. | missed mother
too. She is no longer with US. you
know Wife seemed sort Of pleased
with her new diamond ear rings but
on the whole l can't say that had a
very happy Christmas! What did
you do?"
Bings-"Had the rip-roaringest time
you ever heard OF, by jing. Well, you
know, the day before Christmas we
went down town. wife and and the
kids, and we Just got into the spirit
OF the thing by buying presents for
everybody! Not costly presents, you
know, but just things to make 'em
know We hadn't forgot-and then we
bought a lot OF sensible things for
the Wilsons-you know that poor fam
lily up on the Main road-and when
we started for home, we were a
sight. Everybody in the street car
laughed at us and one fat old duffer
liked to have had apoplexy when Alice
dropped her bundle of toys and
knocked off mans hat with a cur
tain pole she had under her arm,
well. we got home and deposited
our bundles. Then we separated the
family gifts from those we were go
ing to send out and started for VIII
sons. When we got close to the
house, I went up and peeked through
the window. Mrs. Wilson sat leaning
over a cracked cookstove that was
struggling feebly to be cheerful and
the children were huddled about trying
to keep warm. There wasn't much
Christmas spirit in that home until
we broke through the door and began
to get busy! And when we left. every
body was crying and laughing at the
same time and as we walked home
through the snow, my heart Just kept
flying up like one OF those dago bal
looms on string and wife said hers
persisted in acting the same way'
When we got home. we had the
Christmas tree and all next day was
so happy it slipped away like JOY
Gus dream! | certainly got all that

KILLS NEARLY
WHOLE FAMILY
-Four Dead From Drinking Wood
Alcohol in Writ County and
Another May Die.

Four dead and one likely to die
in the family of E. S. Boyce, of Pal
estine, Writ county, Is the result OF
drinking wood alcohol.
1t appears that Francis Boyce.
aged about 81 years. went to Park
ersburg and secured bottle of wood
alcohol that bore no label. He
drank IT and the poisonous liquor so
crazed him that he ran out OF the
house. caught train and was picked
mp at Wellsville. o., and sent home.
In the absence of Frank, his
father, aged Sc. found the bottle and
the taste of the liquor being to his
likink, he drank freely and supplied
his children, Jennie. 10 years old.
and Harry. years old, and baby
about eight months old, with the
fluid. The father, the daughter
Jennie and the baby, died from the
effects of the poison Saturday, and
their funeral took place Sunday af-
ternoon from the M. E. church at
Palestine. all three being inferred in
the one grave. The unusual cir
cumstance caused large number to
attend the obsequies. 1t being said 1t
was the largest funeral ever held in
Writ county. Sunday afternoon the
seven-year-old SON, Harry, died, and
last evening Francis. who purchased
the alcohol originally, was reported
as likely to die.

CHARLESTON. Feb. 23-Any-
thing In the way of revenue bill
can be taken up al the extra session
of the legislature according to the
proclamation of Governor Dawson,
which was presented TO the members
just before the adjournment of the
regular session last night. or rather
this morning, just as dawn was
breaking.
OF the many bills mentioned In
the Governors message specifically a
majority have been passed by the
legislature, but there is also a saw
ing clause in the message which pro
vides that any bills which the Gov
ernor does not approve may be taken
up AT the special session.
The legislature will meet in extra
ordinary session this afternoon at 2
O'Clock, but only for the purpose of
organizing, as the members are all
worn out by their all night vigil be-
fore the adjournment.
It is probable that an adjournment
will be taken until Monday afternoon
when the labor of the extra session
will start.
The message of the Governor to
the legislature is worded so that al
most any kind of legislation can be
considered at the extra session and
how long 1t will last is mere matter
of conjecture. Neither the house
now the senate were in good humor
and the result may be quite an ex-
tended session.
