MANY HOMES
MADE HAPPY
SHOES AND STOCKINGS
FOR NEEDY CHILDREN
More Than 600 Present at Temple
Christmas Night, Where 400
Sacks Of Candy and Nuts Were
Distributed

Charity is of at least two kinds, and
perhaps many more. Ono Il theoret-
ical. the other practical. Diminishing
the former from consideration for the
moment. much may be said in regard
to the latter. Here is where the SAL
walton Army shows strong. Practical
help for the needy. Christmas season
was a busy one for the Army. and no
person can tell the good that was
done. Contributions poured in from
those who were able to give, and the
result was wonderful
All day Christmas the work of dis
tributing dinners was kept up, and
many household was made happy
that otherwise would have not known
OF the presence Of the HOLIDAYS The
figures of what the Army did convey
but slight idea of the real good that
was accomplished.
Seventy-one families were supplied
with dinners composed Of the follow
ing: Chicken, pie, one-half pound Of
coffee. two pounds of sugar. one-h II
pound Of butter, one-half sack of DO
tatoes two loaves Of bread, one can
tomatoes. one quart Of fruit, one-haif
box Of apples. That sounds pretty
good.
During Christmas day 80 pairs of
shoes and stockings were given away
to children who really needed them to
protect themselves from the cold.
The climax was reached Christmas
night. Due notice had been given
that Christmas tree would be on ex-
hibition at the Salvation Army Temple
on First street at o'clock, and long
before that time a crowd gathered
that blocked the sidewalk. When the
doors were opened all could not gain
admission. 1t is estimated that more
than 500 entered the rooms and that
200 were turned away. More than
400 sacks Of candy and nuts had been
prepared from the donations and pur-
chases, not quite all Of which were
distributed to the children. Mrs.. p.
v. Barnes had charge of this part of
the work. In addition. doll babies to
the number Of $50 were distributed, al
well as many toys Of different kinds
and books.
Each recurring year witnesses new
triumphs for the Army, and again
next year, so say those who are in
charge, will they be able to do better,
profiting by experience in handling
the gifts and money placed in their
charge for charitable purposes. As II
was Monday, the work was certainly
done in a commendable manner, the
pvorisions and presents Of all kinds
dispensed going where they would do
much good.
The pony and cart won by George
LIE Clair Omann in the Emporium
store contest Saturday came in handy
Christmas, as they were used to carey
dinners to the families to which they
had been decided upon as proper re-
cipients thereof. Thus was the spirit
of Christmas carried out to the limit
of their means, much pleasure being
given.

Edward Blumenthal Held Up
Christmas Eve and Robbed

Have Been Killed by Their
Own Gun

pleasure of your acquaintance"
"Cut out the SPIEL" said the high
wayman-''lets get down to business /"
The above conversation took place
at o'clock Christmas eve at the cor
ner of First and B streets. Mr.. Blum

vas on his way home, to PIT North
First street, and had reached the
aforementioned place, In the shade
OF the trees in front OF Reads laun-

more pleasant when he was rudely
awakened from his revery. There
were two highwaymen, both OF whom
wore masks.
Occupying a front seat in the par
quet circle Of Mr.. Blumenthaps neck
scarf was diamond pin in the shape
of horseshoe, valued at $125 in real
money. 1t was beauty. The rob-
Der liked the looks of it, and appro-
priated 1t to his own use without as
much as thank you or a pleasant
look. AS a matter Of fact, whether
the robbers looked pleasant or not is
unknown. but 1t is presumed that they
did not.
At this stage Of the proceedings Mr..
Blumenthal began to show some of
his old-time speed on the base lines.
and established another record for
quick thinking. A bonehead play
would have been expensive. He had
haised his hands according to request,
and on one Of his fingers Of one Of his
hands he had diamond ring worth
bunch of money equal to a king
ransom. Quick as flash, Mr. Blum
enthal clasped his hands together
above his head, segregated the ring
from its fond embrace on the digit
and tossed it backward onto the
ground, 50 it would not be heard as II
struck the cement pavement. It wal

away with it,
Having finished their job the high

leaving their victim to pursue his way
horneward.
| From what he could see, Mr.. Blum
enthal is Of the opinion that the high
| waymen were both young men, but
no accurate description could be given
by him. Within ten minutes after the
4 holdup the police were notified and
kept a close lookout for the perpe-
TRAITORS. lis
At 1880 Chistmas morning Officers
Smith and Kelly arrested two men at

and they are being held at the police
station suspected of being the gentle
men who turned the trick.
Mr. Blumenthal said his first i'm.
preston was to take the gun away
from the robber who held 1t and beat
the brains out Of both Of the men
Then he realized that the men might
have relatives who would feel sorry
when they heard on Christmas day
how they had been killed. so allowed
his tender sentiment to get away with
