THE CHRISTMAS SEASON.

Just about this time of the
year and later so much is being
said about the Christmas season
and the joys and sorrows of Leo
sAe that all that have the opror-
unity feel impelled to have say
and give some advice to people.
On one hand you meet up with
= grown-up that will tell you
that the season is not what il
snce was when he was a boy /,
and he will begin to explain what
he me .hs and how children did
when lie VAS a boy, all of which
woul 5r vely well were we not
living ii a d iielent age.
Another person viii lament the
fact that the season is devoid OF
the good fellowship of the day
when he used to see his daddy
20 about and make all the family
feel g3,G by liberal gifts and
that every servant on the place
was remembered and made &c
feel happy.
To such we would say that
possibly when you were no-icine
all these things you had more
time for them than you now have
Ill the details of such matters
we're more firmly fixed upor
your memory.
The season is one Of good feel
ing and the fellow that fails t
catch the spirit of the occasion
bses much that would make hin
better, as also does the fellow
that does not seek to max
brighter the path of some OIL
less fortunate tn9n himself.

One day last week Mr.. w. A.

He also received a bad burn, as

TARIFF CONCESSIONS.
French Willing to List Steel securi-
ties Under Certain Conditions,

New York, July 23.-That the pend
ing customs tariff bill and the effort to
secure the. listing Of United States Steel
common stock on the Paris bOurse are
linked in the minds of some prominent
French financiers is the view of Paul
Morton, president Of the Equitable Life
Assurance society, who arrived today
from Europe.
Mr.. Morton said: "A man high in
French governmental official rank came
to me with a tentative proposition that
if the United States government would
make some preferential tariff arrange
ments for French imports, ne could sug
gest a plan whereby the listing of
American securities on the Paris bourse
would be almost assured. I told him I
could not speak for the United States
government, but that I was very sure
that no such proposition would be en-
tertained for one moment by our gov
eminent"

Story of One of the Survivors When
Tarpon Pier Went Down.

Houston, Tex, July 2S.-Graphic tales
are told by those who were swept from
the TaTpOn fishing pier, of Galveston,
into the suf. and rescued Clinging to
bits of wreckage along the beach near
MOrgan's Point.
Ray c. TeetshOrn of Houston says it
was shortly after midnight of Wednes-
day that the first real alarm for the
safety of BettiSOn'S pier was felt Ten
hours later the pier gave way and the
party Of ten was cast into the water.
shortly before the building sank we
went to the roof" said Mr.. Teetshorn.
THE building went down easy-in fact,
simply CTumbIed into the water. Every
body scrambled for himself. l think all
of US started off on some wreCkage, and
the wind and tide carried US through
the water, while the high sea beat US
and the rollers broke over and beneath
US.
THE first piece of wreckage I got
onto Crumbled and broke, and l fshed
which soon became water-sOaked and
sank. Then 1 finally crawled onto a
piece of lumber about twelve feet long
and I stuck to this until picked up.
Captain Bettison, who owned the
pier, was q cool fellow and went about
deliberately giving instructions when
the storm came up. With our life-pre-
servers on we went to the roof of the
pavilion to be prepared for the worst.
BettisOn, the poor unfortunate, discard
ed his cork legs early in the day. ]
