 Witham, contrary to the usual cus- tom, was allowed to emain in his cell all day yesterday the officials telling him that they had decided not 10 work him on the city streets any longer. The man seemed delighted to be allowed to rest, but later in the day became surly and apparently sus- pected that something had been dis covered concerning his Tast life.

WELCOMED h KICKING.
Odd Incident That Proved the Popu
 arity of Dumas.


 In My autobiography" Mme ,Ill dith. the great French actress. writes of Alexander Dumas the elder:
 This giant of a mulatto, with his big, black, mocking eyes. his wide E"S- trilS, thick lips. heavy chin, his crisspN curling hair and his forehead with it's strange bumps, like that of some un- ruly child who is always fighting with his comrades. was truly representa- i've parsonage, q type retectinS all the passion of the romanticists. There would have been something wanting to his time if this grandson of a necress had not been seen striding along the Partisan bOuievards, if his laugh had not been heard on the terraces of the cafes or if he had not appeared playing fnS part with naive self satisfaction in official ceremonies and at the Tuilcries ball, or walking about behind the scenes at the theater with his arm arMlnd the waist of some actress. or eatang and drinking enough for four in the merry suppers at which authors and artists used to meet
 His popularity was simply unequal ed. There was story current in my time of singular wager made by Mery of Marseilies Walking one day in some public garden with a friend. he suddenly said to him: Do you see that big, ridiculous looking fellow? l bet you 100 sous that if l kick him. no matter where, instead of flying into q rage he will make me a polite bow
 'The bet was taken, and Mery, creep ing stealthily up behind M. Prud homme, gave him tremendous kick in the small of his back. The man turned red with indignation. but Mery cried oh, I beg your pardon, sir; l took you for Alexander Dumas, with whom l have an account to settle
 His victim, only too proud to be taken for such a great man, at once re tented and. taking off his hat in the most amiable manner, he said, with a bow, There is no harm done, mon sieur.' The hundred sous were Won.'

The Old Chicago Captain Made Two
 Plays to DahIen's One.
 Tim Hurst, the veteran umpire, told this one on Bill Dahlen when Bill was youth toiling under Cap Anson in Chicago. Said he:
 "Anson called Dahlen good and hard in a game I was umpiring in Chicago Dahlen took it without saying a word, but few minutes later Bill remarked to me, Watch me bark that old fel- lows shins' Ans was not as agile then as he was in his younger days. and he stopped with much effort. All through that game Bill made great stops, only to throw the ball a few feet in front of the bag, and it was up to Anson to stop it with his shins.
 However, that was not the end of it. A few days later the White Stockings had to make trip to St. Louis. and Anson told Dahlen he would not be taken on the trip. Bill had been told that several times and he thought Ans was foo1ing. The train left Chicago about midnight and Dahlen was with the rest of the team.
 "When the train was about twenty five miles out of Chicago the conductor told Anson there were sixteen men in the party and he had received only fifteen tickets Anson said there were only fifteen men and named the berths they occupied.
 "'The man in berth No. IT says he is a member of the Chicago team. said the conductor. who was referring to Dahlen Hes stringing you, replied Anson. Poor Bill was asked to cough up and couldn't. The train was stop ped, and Dahlen was put off the train about thirty miles from Chicago. How he got back to Chicago only Bill him. self knows, but he would not talk to anybody for q week.

reconciliatiOns took place. New Years
calls were made and New Years gifts
bestowed. There also originated the
New Years resolution. for every Re-
nlan resolved on New Years day to SO
regulate his conduct that every word
and act should he happy augury for
all the days Of the ensuing year
On account of the orgies which mark
ed the New Years arrival not only
Teutonic races, the early Christians
looked with scant favor upon the
whole season. By the fifth century,
however. Dec. 25 became the fixed fes
tival Of the Nativity. whereupon Jan. 7
assumed Il special sacred character as
the octave of Christmas day.
The giving Of gifts on New Years
day has been superseded largely in An
glo-Saxen countries by the giving OF
Christmas gifts. but the custom still is
retained in France This custom was
one Of the most ancient and UNIVERSAL
~ observed Of New Years day.
The druids distributed branches Of
the sacred mlStletOe. The Roman en-
perors exacted gifts. and so did the
English rulers down to the time of
Cromwell
The world over on New Years it is
custom to drink to the health of
ones friends.
: The custom of making New Year
resolutions and turning over a new
leaf is universal and, like political
platforms. is as much honored in the
breach as in the observance. But the
temptation which surrounds frail hu-
man beings in this wicked world are
many and insidious.
What a menace to our comfort,
What reproof to him that boasts.
Those habits that, discarded, ia.
Haunt our presence still like ghosts!
