new auto, had the misfortune to meet
with distressing accident Sunday af-
ternoon. In turning the bank corner
onto Front street he found bunch of
motorcyclists lined up near the foun-
tain to have photo taken, occupying
one side of the street, while another
auto was approaching on the opposite
side, and in endeav oring to avoid col
lision he ran into II year old son OF
Richard Affeldt, who was standing IN
the street. The boy was knocked
down, his clothing torn, and he sus-
tanned several cuts, though not seri-
ously hurt. Under the circumstances
the accident was probably unavoidable.

Christmas matinee was confined almost exclusively to a few of the first class theaters in New York city.
 On the road 1t is different. The ac- tors have to work just as hard as they ever did, and opposition from local managers will probably prevent the elimination of the Christmas matinee outside of New York.
 With some companies Christmas is not the disagreeable occasion that 1t is with others. One or two owners make it a practice to instruct the man. ager with the company to have a Christmas dinner prepared at the ex- pense of the show. Sometimes a cater CT is called in, and the dinner is served on the stage between the matinee and the evening performance. In that event the dinner usually proves prolific of material for the house press agent, and the affair is duly recorded in the daily papers. Sometimes it is served on the stage after the evening performance Other times arrangements are made at some hotel.
 It was one of these after the per formance affairs that came pretty near putting travelling stock company out of business in town out in Iowa last Christmas. This theater, by the way, boasts of the only dog critic in exist ence. This comes from the fact that If the dog doesn't like a show he will start to howl, and he has to be re moved from the theater before the per formance can be continued.
 Only a month before a well known concert singer was appearing at the theater. She had about finished one of her best selections when the dog poked his nose over the railing of an upper box and began to howl his dis approval. That led to the temporary punishment of the dog critic from the heater. But when the stock company came along the manager heard about the dog, and, willing to take a chance that the dogs judgment of his show would be favorable, he suggested that the dog be allowed to sit by big well, which was part of the scenic effect in one of the acts, just for the sake of realism.
 Now, this same manager had con- cluded to give his company a dinner on the stage after the performance. In the course of the play the dog was brought out and tied to the we'll Everything went all right until the dog sniffed the turkey and the other good things at the side of the stage, and without waiting for the finish of the act he made for the food, dragging

CHRISTMAS IN MANILA.

CHRISTMAS for the majority of the
 225,OOO inhabitants of Manila that is, the Filipinos-begins on Christ mas eve. There are no stockings hung, however, for stockings are not popular, even with the most aristocratic SenOri- taS, who usually go bare ankled. Mid night mass is the occasion which brings thousands to the churches. These fine edifces are thrown open and blaze with myriads of candles and electric lights.
 Manila at midnight on Christmas eve is probably gayer than at any Oth- CT time of the year. The streets are thronged with carriages and people in their best attire. Many Americans turn out on Christmas eve also to see the displays and the people and make church to church inspection tours in parties. Fine trained choirs and string ed orchestras render excellent music.
 The weather during the holiday sea- son is just cool enough to dispel the chronic laziness which pervades Ma nila during most of the year and put little spice into the blood. At noon the thermometer will probably not go over 84 or S5 degrees. At night, how ever, a blanket on the bed is not too much.

THE BEAUTIFUL SANTA MYTH.
Don't Undeceive the Little Ones About
 St, Nick.

Don't Undeceive the Little Ones About
 St. Nick.
 If your daughter is just six or seven years old and you are beginning to feel your conscience pinch you at deceiving her any longer with the beautiful myth of Santa Claus, just silence that con science and wait until she finds out the truth for herself
 If your daughter has any illusions left in this day of disiIlusion, let her keep them. She will feel more resent, ment toward you for shattering them than she will for deceiving her. You do not think it necessary to tell your grownup girl all the things you have discovered about love and matrimOny and thereby terminate her dreams that those myths are all they seem to be. do you?
 After all, the sweetest part of a girls life from babyhood up is the dream part. Some day she will find out that there is no Santa Claus, and then she will find out that there are no fairies, and then she will find out that TO- nance doesn't last, and then that mat rimony has it's thorns, and then that women grow old, but why open her eyes to these things?
 Let a child believe in Santa Claus just as long as he or she will and pluck the delicious fruit from the mythical Christmas tree to her hearts content. It is bad enough to discover the sawdust in the doll of life when it begins to fall out without being told about it when you thought it was real ly flesh and blood.
 If any mothers conscience is trou' bling her about the Christmas f1b tell ing just now, let her sit down and try to remember that awful day when she first discovered that there was no Santa Claus, and that conscience will shut up tight and never open its mouth again.
