ROMANS RECEIVE NO GIFTS
On Christmas Roman Catholic Church
es Have a Reproduction of the
Stable at Bethlehem.

Christmas in italy centers around
the church. Nearly all the Roman
Catholic churches have a reproduction
of the stable of Bethlehem, with all
the prominent figures of the Nativity.
Before the Presepio, as this represen-
tation is called, the mothers gather
and urge their Titles ones to recite
their hymns Of praise to the Madonna
and the Child. Roman children re-
ceive no gifts on Christmas day. On
Christmas eve in many Italian homes
a family festival IS held where the old
and young to the third and fourth gen.
GRAFTON meet at a supper of fish, cells,
nuts, cakes, and fruit, or vegetables.
No meat Is included in the magro
which is, however, a satisfying repast.
1t is followed the next day by the
sumptuous dinner, graced necessarily
by a fat capon, and ended by pau
gallo, a sort of coarse nut and fruit
cake. 1t is the perennial holiday Gus
tom of the Italian tradesmen, as we'll
as the German and Russian, to send
to their patrons complimentary gifts
at Christmas time. These tokens are
recognized in Italy by the mancie, or
small sum Of money given in return.

ALL ARE SURE OF WINNING
Part Of lnter-County Highway System
involved in Heated Controversy
Proposition Submitted to Pop
ular Vote in Cumberland Co.
Especial Trenton Correspondence

Especial Trenton Correspondence.)
Trenton.-Not since Col. E. A. Stew
n has been State Road Commission
er has he been confronted with SO
perplexing a problem as that of deter
mining upon the routes for the pro-
posed State highways connecting
Mays Landing and Cape May Court
House, the county seats of Atlantic
and Cape May, with Bridgeton, the
county seat of Cumberland. Since the
proposition has been submitted to the
people of Cumberland County there
has been a distinct division of public
sentiment. BY far the greater pro-
portion of the community favor a
route from Mays Landing through
Vineland to Bridgeton, and a route
covering the road from Bridgeton to
Port Norris and across the Maurice
River into Cape May county. Millville
people are practically unanimous for
a route for both roads leading directly
through that city, claiming the routes
are shorter and the expense of provid-
ing the highway would be much less.
Colonel Stevens spent a whole day in
motoring over the proposed roads, and
a meeting vas arranged in the rooms
of the Commercial League of Bridge
ton to hear arguments from the pub
lie. Vineland sent carloads of people
over hours before the meeting, all of
whom wore badges fixing their iden-
tity, while scores of automobiles
brought delegations from every Sec
ton of the county, and the trolley cars
carried hundreds from Millville.
Well Attended Meeting.
When the meeting was called to
order by Commissioner Stevens the
crowds had packed the league rooms
and many were unable to obtain ad-
mission. The meeting promptly ad-
journed to the Majestic Theatre, one
of the largest auditoriums in the city,
and this room was soon filed, with
many people standing. The argu-
ments favoring either route were pre-
scented by the leading men of the com
munities of Cumberland county. Bank
ers, manufacturers, business men, mo-
florists of the various places, all pre-
scented their views and were sharply
questioned by the State Commission
or. Colonel Stevens said that he want
ed information, and urged that every
man who spoke for one or the other
routes should present his reasons for
the conclusions he had reached. Fol
lowing the meeting, Colonel Stevens
stated that he would take all of the
arguments under consideration, study
all the physical conditions, and would
lay the matter before Governor Wilson
before he advanced any opinion re-
garding the matter.

coming down in hard, frozen particles
like sifted sands. Across the fields
the wind came nipping like a sharp
toothed terrier, and Hobo Jim glanced
anxiously about through the gloom.
He had been released from the coop"
only that day after two months of con
1nement for having been caught with
a dead turkey in his possession, and
he shivered a bit beneath his thin
clothes as he hurried along the lone
road. To make matters worse he was
hungry, broke and friendless, End to
be hungry, broke and friendless upon
Christmas v Is hard enough luck
for any man. Then as he peered, he
saw through the darkness of the road
side a glimmer Of light that twinkled
before his eyes like a great star of
hope and he paused with his gaze fast
ened wistfully upon 1t.
With a caution grown of long ex-
perience he passed quietly to the back
of the building and peered through a
window. He could see into the dining
room from here, and as he gazed and
shifted at a crack deep within him his
stomach began clamoring like a fam
ished wolf pack, for within a dozen
feet of him was a table piled high with
good things to eat, while about it the
gorged family still sat nibbling.
There Is enough left for a dozen
lunches, and still things to throw
away" he muttered as his eyes roved
over the board. Much encouraged by
the sight he stretched forth his
knuckles in a timid tap, then putting
on his most woebegone face stood
awaiting his fate with a heart that
futtered a~nxiously.
The door opened and a mar stood
before it peering into the darkness.
And Us the lamp light from within fell
upon the hobo's cringing form, the
face Of the one upon the threshold
darkened until 1t matched the night.
$50 1t is you-sneaking around here

ton to run you in again upon suspi
cion. Get. out Of here, thief"
But / didn't steal that bird
whined the caller. Then he paused
suddenly, for once more he was staring
into the mouth of that same unpleas
ant looking revolver. "Oh, I'll go al
right" he added hastily.
Up the road he went hurrying, an
CRY, disappointed, hungrier and cold
er than ever. In the bottom of a peck
ct where he had plunged a hand fol
warmth his big. old-fashioned watch
lay ticking and his fingers CLOSED
about it fondly. 1t was his only pos
session Of slightest value. Twenty
years ago It had been given to him

had been a boy and sick as this one
now was, when a woman had sat be-
side him the long nights through Civ

had read? Yes, he remembered now.
More blessed to give than to re-
c~eive."l That was it. He had never
had a great deal of confidence in
these words and had never tried them
out, still he had sometimes thought
that one day he would put them to
the test. But he had never had enough
for himself, let alone others, while
now-his eyes fell upon the stocking
hanging from the mantle and a queer
look came creeping over his face.
They certainly were in tough luck.
tougher luck than he was In himself.

ENDS MONOPOLY
IN HARD COAL
Supreme Court Orders Temple
Iron Co. Dissolved
is NO ANTHRACITE TRUST
Decision Heralds the Restoration of
Competition and the Dissolution
of the Combination, Announces
the Attorney General.

Washington. The Supreme Court
ruled that the Coal Trust is not a
trust that comes under the Sherman
Antitrust law ban, but some of it's
methods were held. TO be in violation
of the statute.
Justice Lurton, announcing the unan-
imous decision of the court, which for
this case consisted of only six mem
bers, ruled as follows:
There is no general combination
of the anthracite railroads to appor-
ton the amount of coal to. be put on
the market annually by the various
lines.
The Temple ron Company is being
run illegally by the combination of
anthracite railroads and must be sepa-
rated from railroad control.
The 65 per cent. contracts, by which
the anthracite roads bought coal from
independent operators at IS per cent.
of tidewater prices, are Illegal under
the Sherman law.
Those are the three important fea-
lures of the decision.
The case is one of the most compli-
Gated V placed before a court in
this country. 1t differed from other
trust cases, chiefly in that the Gov
eminent went after not only the big
fish, but also the little ones.
1t is not regarded as likely that the
present decision will cause the price
of coal to fall for the consumer. Even
Acknowledgement Wickersham, who
had charge of the suit, was not willing
to predict a cut in prices.
He insisted the Government had
won a big victory, but all he. had to
say as to possible lower prices for the
consumer was:
1T is believed this decision will so
completely destroy the combination
which now controls the price of an
thracite coal that it must result in a
distinct measure of relief to the pub
lic."
