Young MILLER IN THIS
CITY.-PRAISfS ORDFMANN

young" Miller. champion welter-
weight catch-as- catch wrestler OF
the world arrived in Calumet yester-
day To spend the holidays with his
brother Walter Wood of this city.
This is his third visit to Calumet and
he will remain here for about two
weeks.
When asked his opinion of the men
now In the heavyweight ranks, Miller
stated that Henry Ordemann is the
best wrestler in the world outside of
Gotch. Miller expects to see him win
from all of the aspirants for the title.
According TO Miller there is little COM
parison between Ordemann and Lehto,
and IL Is his opinion that the Minnea-
polls man could throw the Finn twice
in an hour without difficulty.
Miller claims to be willing to defend
his title against any welter weight
in the world. and to back himself
with from $500 to $4,000 upon the out
come. Regarding the claim of Sailor
Jack of Duluth, that Miller has been
lodging him, the champion states that
the Duluth grappler is unwilling to
agree to his terms, and that unless he
does so there is no hope of an en-
counter.
Miller recently appeared In n ten
minute exhibition match against
Zbyszko. the Polish aspirant for the
heavyweight honors, at Milwaukee.
Zzyszko weighed $50 pounds and
Young Miller tipped the beam at lao
pounds. Miller has a match with
Gehring. the champion middleweight
for next month. at Chicago.
Efforts are being made by Calumet
promoters to arrange a bout between
Miller and Frank Burns for the Calu-
met theater early next month.

THE WORD CHRISTMAS.
Reasons Why the Authorization XMAS
Should Not Be Used

The modern habit of writing the
word christmas" with an Y is some
thing which good form" alone should
forbid. says an exchange. The Greek
letter for chi, found i'm the word for
Christ has the form of our Y and from
TINS the abbreviation of the word has
followed. A writer in the Capital
News Of Boise, Idaho, reminds us that
stands for the unknown quantity
I'm mathematical problems. Do those
who use it then intimate their ignor-
ance of Christ? Certainly it would not
seem as If any who have a deep sense
of the sacredness of this word.
Christmas" would write il in a hasty
abbreviation. Furthermore, X is the
sign used by illiterate people to show
that they cannot write their own
names. Is this Xmas. then. a sign that
the present generation has not yet
learned TO write or read it's title clear =?
Y is furthermore a voiceless letter;
that is, ii has to borrow the sound of
other letters to make itself heard. IL
rs the ostraciZed letter of the alphabet
and always discarded when it's use Is
not Indispensable.
If is regarded as n sign of the
'ioSS' tidl great Symbol or CHRISTIAN
history IL is incorrect in form. In any
case, to connect the thought of the
cross with the Christmas blessedness
is no longer the need for those who
have witnessed the resurrection. Let
this symbol of ignorance, Indifference
and suffering. then, no longer appear
as disguise of the beautiful word
Christmas"
The writer in the News concludes:
Let this meaningless, ugly sign "X'
mas be banished forever. Let the re-
porter scorn To use ii. Let the city
editor frown upon IL and stab il with
his blue pencil. Let the advertisement
writer cease to make 1t blot and blur
upon his otherwise beautiful lettering
Let the teacher, with his fine sense of
the eternal fitness of things condemn
Ii. Let the student be taught never to
use 1t. Let the people in their private
correspondence disdain TO disfgure
their letters with its presence. Let
every one demand the removal of this
barnacle from the English language.
And whenever we have occasion In
writing or printing to refer to the in
itial event OF the centuries. let us use
that sweet, sacred and beautiful word.
Christmas"
