by the highest officials of the Denver
& Rio Grande that the matter of an
agreement between the railroad COM
pany and the government as to the
right of way for the canal in the
narrows above Palisade had been ad-
justed in a satisfactory manner. Sec
rotary Garfield will sign the contract
today or Monday. There has never
been any good reason to doubt that
the signature of the secretary of the
interior would be attached to the con-
tract. II has been a foregone con-
clusion for some time, especially
since the announcement made first
by The Sentinel several weeks ago of
the fact that in his annual report
Secretary Garfield had formally ap-
proved the Grand valley project.
A number of other matters were
informally discussed at the meeting
last night.

AS to Christmas Shopping.

Procrastination is the theft of time,
especially when Christmas shopping
is deferred. A person can buy a
Christmas gift in the last weeks of
November in less than half the time
it takes to make the purchase If it
is delayed until the week before
Christmas, when the shops are crowd
ed. More than this, when Christmas
shopping is done in November there
is more time for deliberation, which,
where young ladies are concerned, is
a weighty consideration.
But the principal reason for early
shopping is that it it is merciful to
the sales people,, To the young man
or the young woman behind the coun-
tersin the department store the Christ
mas season is time of wearying and
unceasing labor, extending almost to
the dawn of Christmas Day. If peo-
pie will delay making their purchases
until the last, then all will want to be
waited upon at the same time. Ere
quently there is ill humor because the
weary clerk cannot give immediate
attention, and this is contrary to the
spirit of Christmas, which is peace
and good will toward men.
The beautiful custom of making
Christmas gifts is so widely and firmly
established that the amount of shop
ping as the season approaches is
prodigious and seems to be increas-
ing year by year. The motto of every
shopper this year, especially when
the weather is as delightful as that of
this November. should be. do 1t

Battle of the Wilderness.

Never, l think, did an army set off
on a campaignu when the fields and
the bending morning sky wore fresh
er or happier looks. Our horse felt
it all, too, and, champing their bits,
fiecking their breasts at times with
spattering foam, bore us on proudly.
When we gained the ridge just be-
yond Stevensburg, which commands
a wide landscape, an inspiring sight
broke on our eyes. To be sure, we
had been riding by troops all the way
from Brandy, but now as far as you
could see in every direction, corps, di-
visions and brigades, trains, batter
les and squadrons were moving on in
a waving sea of blue; headquarters
and regimental flags we're fiuttering,
the morning sun kissing them all, and
shimmering gayly from gun barrels.
and on the Ioud-speaking brass guns,
so loved by the cannoneers who
marched by their SIDES. Every once
in while a cheer would break, and
on would come floating the notes of
band.-Morris Schaff, in the At

BACK FROM MOROCCO.
Mrs. Charles r, Miller, Formerly of
this County.


From the Baltimore American of
November 29.
Mrs. Charles R.. Miller, who has late
ly won unique fame as the only wo-
man war correspondent in the world,
and who has just returned from Me-
lila, in Morocco, where she was on
the firing line in the interest of Les
lies Weekly, has ben publishing in
that journal photographs taken by
her on the spot and articles describing
the warfare between the Spanish and
the Moors. In the latest issue she
tells the cameras story of Mehlla
with it's scenes of war, especially of the
prison camps of, the Moors taken in
battle, and the article accompanying,
relating in detail the building of these
rude prison cities, one sheltering q
600 captive men, women and children,
their mode of life, the humane atti-
tude of the Spanish toward their half
savage prisoners, are interesting and
graphic in the extreme. Not the least
interesting feature of the narrative
is the wonder which Mrs Miller her-
self and her ceamera excited among
these people, particularly the women,
who had never before seen woman OF
another race, and to whom the camera
was a thing of unknown terrorS. A
significant point in her article is her
observation on the physical qualities
of the Moors, their fearlessness and
determination in their fighting, and
the consequent trouble the Spanish
are apt to have with this hardy and
warlike race. Mrs. Miller's excursion
to the battlefields of Morocco, where
she was the only white woman out
side some Spanish servants, makes an
era in journalistic enterprise.

Remember the Inmates of Our County
Home.

The near approach of Christmas re-
minds me that there are number
of the citizens of our highly favored
county, who are willing to assist me
in carrying Christmas cheer to the
inmates of our county home for the
poor and aged. Death has been very
busy during the past year, and many
families faces will be missed this
Christmas, but others have taken their
places, a number of whom are sick
and almost helpless. To them, this
may be the last Christmas on earth.
Can not we make it the best and
brightest they have ever known A
little help from the many, to whom
life is more blessed with friends,
and home comforts, enables US to sup
ply their simple wants and wishes,
and give them happy day, the mem
ory of which fingers with them
throughout the whole year. They are
old, they are feeble, many OF them
friendless. They are those of whom
Christ has said, "In as much as ye
have done it unto one of the least OF
these, my brethren, ye have done 1t
unto Me- Who will help brighten
their lives with the Christmas cheer?
/ know the responses will come, as
thew always do, and only ask, please
send contributions for the purpose as
early as possible, so that we may nave
time to select carefully appropriate
and useful gifts.
