XMAS DO|NCS AT GIDEON

TANANA, Dec. 31. The cele. bration at the A. B. hall on Christ. mas eve, was the most successful and best attended of any event ever held in Panama.
 Old and young, rich and poor, mer- chants and minsrs, officers and pri- yates, all gathered as one large family and enjoyed the evening to the utmost.
 The hall was decorated with fes- toons of greens suspended from the center and arching gracefully to the four corners.
 The rostrum, on which stood a large, beautifully trimmed Christmas tree, was banked with spruce boughs and gay colored ornaments.
 The program started shortly after o'clock Dr. Harris was master of ceremonies, making short but ap- propriate opening address, after which the musical program - ar ranged by Mrs. Bosard - and the children's literary numbers, under the direction of MT. Mozee, were car ried through.
 Mr. A. Frenzel, the German musi- clan, rendered two violin solos, which were artistic and revealed the talents of the player.
 H. L. Hedrick, who has a rich, powerful voice, sang Rocked in the Cradle of the Deep" while Mrs. Bosard and Mrs. Rodman rendered piano duet, "Mazurka" (by Ne. vin).
 Miss Cornell and Miss Heeter were heard in a vocal duet, entitled q Love You Truly" This was great ly enjoyed by all, as was trio Sweet and Low" sung by Miss Cornell and Messrs. Burnyeat and Hedrick.
 Marked declamatory ability was shown by Miss De Ette Shaw, who

 vtations to Same Banquet.
 WASHINGTON. Dec. 15. - The New York Herald published the following special dispatch from Washington:
 Whose dinner is It. anyhow? :? That is what q score or more mem bers Cf congress and others who have been invited to partake of de lectabla viands at the Willard hotel Friday would like to know. Several days ago Senator s. H. Piles. of Washington. sent out invitations to dinner which he said he was go, ing 10 give to some friends in congress.
 Next day Mrs w. E. Humphries. wife of Repro sentative Humphrey. of Washington. called up several repre- sentatives and asked if they would accept invitations to dinner to be given at the New Willard Fri day. One told Mrs. Humphrey that he would be delighted 10 attend, but he had promised Senator Piles he would dine with him at the same time and place.
 That's queer" said Mrs. Hum- phry. Senator Piles is going to attend MT. Humphreys dinner. Why, I believe it's the sar"e dinner A few discreet questions brought out that the dinner is to be paid for by representatives of concerns that want to sell the government some submarine boats for the Pa cific coast. and that neither the senator nor the representative from | Washington is to be more than the | acting host"
 Senator Piles was out of the city today and therefore could not be | seen regarding this.

MAMMAS SOON END STRIKE
No Dinner for Messenger Boys Who
 Walked Out.

PITTSBURG, Dec. IS. It took the fond mammas of about 900 strik- ing messenger boys but . few min utes to break the strike against the Western Union Telegraph company today.
 Mamma refused to furnish dinner when the young striker arrived at noon from headquarters and this started something. It would seem that most of the heads of families in which thsre were striking boys had formed . plan to impress the need of work on the lads, and there was general mo dinner" move ment all along the line.
 A sad and hopeless looking lot of Jinnerless messenger boys returned to strike headquarters from their homes. They sat about quite a spell, when apparently by common consent they rose and started down the street pell nell toward the Western Union ofi1ce.

 Mir.

 Sir Edward Carscn supported the resolution He said Mir. Redmond stood where Parnell stood; the loy- alists stood exactly where the men who opposed and beat Parnell stood. The present fight was for the Brit ish connection CT none. This ques- ton involved grave considerations.

GERMANS BLAMED IN MEXICO
 FOR ERICAN FEELING
A. H. Brown, Denver Man, Tells of
 Teutonic Activity Foster

LOS ANGELES, Cali, Nov. 23.- A. H. Brown, a Mexico mining man, whose home is in Denver, and who arrived today from Mexico, made he prediction that the revolution merely is in it's incipient stage and that it may grow to such pro- portions that Diaz may be compelled to abdicate.
 Everything depends on the army" Brown said. If the army remains loyal, the revolution soon will come to an end. If assertions continue as they have in the past, Mexico is facing a serious situation.
 Furthermore, if Reyes. who, fig, uratively speaking, was banished to Paris, returns to take the leadership of the revolution, it is all off with he present administration. I un- derstand that Reyes is on the way.
 Americans in Mexico are not so much responsible for this dis turbance as is the government it. self Valuable concessions have been given away to Americans in Mexico from which there is untold graft that gees into the pockets of the Mexican officials.
 Germans are the cause of much of the feeling against the Ameri- cans in Mexico. The willy German does not invest his money in devel- opment schemes. He waits until he American has done that and he, the German, comes in for the commercial business.
 Fear that the Americans will absorb this profitable business has led the Germans to urge the Mexi- can on in his resentment of Amer ican invasion"
