YuIetide Proverbs. .


 The wise man begs to express much more than proverbial wishes that his entire clientele may enjoy the merriest of merry Christmases.
 The universal spread of dolldom and drumdom is infinitely preferab ble to that of the doldrums.
 Our early days will not. indeed. come back, yet is Christmas an Indian sum mer evening to the venerable, reviv- ing reminiscence of youth. ''The mirror of all courtesy" should be polished on Christmas day. "A royal train, believe me-" is the reindeer equipage of good old St Nick. A Christmas motto: His heart and hand both open and both
 free,
 For what he has he gives. what things he
 shows,
 Yet gives he not till judgment guide his
 bounty.
 Mature teaches beasts to know their friends" and why should they not share in the Christmas good will. Sweet mercy is nobility's true badge" Let us inwardly digest this truism with the Christmas cheer. Enough. with 0vermeasure," will probably characterize the Christmas possessions of majority of us. When does "jocund day stand tiptoe on the misty mountain tops" if not on merry Christmas?

men and women look back, with tender
recollection. to the days they spent under

POINT OF ORDER WITHDRAWN

The House after several days of gem
eral debate on the general deficiency bill
got down to work on that measure YES
| terday and considered it under the five
minute rule. number of local items of
interest came up in the course of the
day.
Ice Plant for Museum.
The House adopted after brief argu-
ment an amendment, offered by Repre-
| sentative Tawney of Minnesota, chair
man of the appropriations committee i'm
| charge of the bill on the floor appropri-
| ating $3.50 out CT the unexpended bal
ance under the head of preservation
of collections in the National Museum
| for the purchase of an ice plant of asca-
| pacity of five tons a day.
What. cried Representative Hughes
| of New jersey when this amendment
WAS read. is it necessary to have an ice
| plant to preserve the collections in the
| National Museum
AT the present time said Mr.. Taw-
ney with smile. they are eXpending
5000 year for ice in the National Mu-
scum and the Smithsonian Institution.
| The testimony given by the secretary of
tie institution shows that they are buy
ing ice and paying $3.50 ton for it.
Government Will Save Money.
The purchase of this ice plant which
will cost less than the annual cost for
ice, will ena BILE the National Museum to
manufacture its own ice at about G1
cents ton instead of paying $3.50 a ton
for ii, they are now
Mr.. Hughes suggested that a central ice
plant would be a good thing. 1t was re-
called that Congress has established three
or four ice plants in the various depart
ments at this present session.
"A central ice plant was my idea orig
i1ally,' said Mr.. Tawney. Upon inves-
tigation / discovered that would mean a
material increase in the cost OF ice, for
the reason that it would necessitate an
independent organization and equipment.
much more expensive in installation. to-
gether with the cost of its maintenance.
Now these machines are small.
think the capacity of the machine re-
ferred to is five tons of ice a day. 1t does
not involve any additional expense to the
government.
The engineer of the National Museum
building will run the ice machine. What
little labor Is required will be furnished
by the laborers now on the roll"
So the item was acted upon favorably

Jurisdiction Over Prisoners.

Therefore we have adopted the rec
tice in respect to the utilization of the
labor Of about $50 of the prisoners in
this jail in the erection of the workhouse
and Jail down here on the Potomac river
in the state of Virginia. For that pur-
pose We transfer jurisdiction to the Dis
trict Commissioners over so many of
the prisoners as can be worked to adj
vantage. authorizing the employment of
superintendent, and, of course while
they are under the control of the Dis
trict Commissioners they will be guarded
and maintained at the joint expense of
the federal government and The District
1T will afford an opportunity for these
ment TO be employed at something where
they will be a great deal better off physi-
cally as well as mentally than to be i'm
confinement in the District jail. 1t will
also enable the government and the Dis
trict to secure the benefit of their la Dor
and to erect this institution at much less
cost than otherwise would be necessary.
While the prisoners are engaged i'm this
work they will be housed temporarily and
guarded in a sort of stockade so thai
| there will be no danger of their escare
and no risk on that account. The inten.
| ton is to transfer these men from time IN
| time as their terms expire.
Most of them are in prison for ONLY q
year. By a system of cumulative SEN
| fences some Of them can be and are i'm
prisoned for more than a year, but very
! few
| After this explanation Mr.. Stafford with
drew his point of order. and the House
acted favorably on the paragraph.
Consideration of the general deficiency
bill will probably be resumed this after

Wickersham's Recommendations.

After the attention of the department
and the President had been brought to
the report of this commission, the De-
partment of Justice submitted modified
recommendation. which included all that
is carried here and something morest
I'm the modified estimate of the DEPART
ment was included recommendation that
we turn the District Jail over to the Dis
trict Commissioners.
Now. the jail belongs to the federal
government. The supervision of the jail
has always been under the Department of
Justice.
The custody and supervision of tine in
mates have also been under those ap-
pointed by the Department of Justice The
jail was built and has until twelve years
aso been maintained wholly from the rev.
enues of the government.
The committee on appropriations did not
feel justified in adopting that part of the
recommendation, because ii was not nee
essary TO meet the emergency which now
exists. namely. that the District .ail. now
housing an average of about 500 convicts
or prisoners awaiting trial. is so congested
that the sanitary conditions are such that
some provision must be made at this ses-
sion to meet this emergency.
