CHRISTMAS WAS QUIET
No Disorder Occurred to Mar the
Pleasures Of the Happy
Season

:. 1t is generally admitted that condl-
tons in Alexandria we're more serene
yesterday than on any Christmas Day
within the memory of the oldest l1haD-
liant; yet all classes seemed to ENJOY
the pleasures of the season. Mayor
Fishers order forbidding the use OF
explosives was generally observed, but
few discharges being heard in any Sec
ton of the city, and most Of these
were ocsasioned by the small ana
harmless cracker set off by little boys.
No arrests were made during the day,
the people on the streets who showed
the effects of tarrying TOO long with
the wine being in good humor. There
was but little horn blowing.
Conditions yesterday were in marked
contrast to those on Christmas Day a
few years ago, when it was necessary
to swear in about twenty-five extra
policemen in order to meet any emer-
gency which might arise.
The day was practically given over
to church service, Sunday school en-
tertainments, and family reunions.
1t is gratifying to realize that most
of people prefer a more sane obser.
vance of the great holiday.
Bountiful Christmas dinners were
served by Sergt. R. H. Cox, to the
prisoners ae the city Jail and by Supt
