SANTA CLAUS BOARDS A
PULLMAN SLEEPING CAR.
How Old Kris Kringle Visited a Little
Lad on a Train.

Santa Claus never appeared SO
lovely to me as on last Wednesday.
Christmas eve, on board a Pullman
sleeping car, the last place in the
world to look for the fat little man.
remarked Hunter G. Rice, a business
man Of New York, at the Shoreham.
II shall always treasure in my mem
DRY the incidents of that night, and
for the rest Of my life I shall teach
the little ones always to believe that
Santa Claus is real.
81 was bound for my home in West
Virginia to spend Christmas. At Bal
ti1nore there was brought aboard in
the arms Of a good doctor a little
curly-headed boy just past 5. He was
tenderly placed in a berth and put
in charge of the conductor. The ply
sician told us that the lad was going
to his home at White Sulphur Springs
for Christmas, after having spent sew
eral months at one of the Baltimore
hospitals, where he had been treated
for hip disease. His little leg was
shriveled and helpless, his pretty face
wan and pinched, but he was full Of
the Christmas spirit.
"a correspondent Of a West Vir-
ginia paper boarded the train at
Washington. He saw the little fell
lows pale a peering out through
the curtins, and to the newspaper
man the boy confided that he was
waiting for Santa Claus. The writer
tried to soften the disappointment
that he believed would come in the
morning by telling h ~youngster that
Santa Claus didn't visit sleeping cara
on moving trains, but that doubtless
when the boy got home he would find
that Santa Claus nae been there. The
little fellow wouldn't have it, and in
sisted that his stocking be pinned
on the outside Of the curtains, and
when that was lone he turned over:
and peacefully went to sleep to dream
Of Kris Kringle.
W got busy. Everybody on board
that train became interested. A Uni
ted States marine going home for tha
mondays offered a brand-new pair OF
government socks in place of the
stocking. An inventory was made Of
the baggage OF every man on board.
"A klno!y-faced matron suggested that

ADDRESS PEOPLE
Give Eight Reasons Against
Adoption of Nation Wide
Prohibition.

Washington, May 1.-THE conven-
ton of the National Wholesale Liquor
Dealers, association closed today with
the election of officers and the adop-
ton of statement to the people OF
the Uaited States giving eight reas-
ons why national prohibition should
be opposed.
National prohibition this statement
asserts, would be curtailment OF the
sovereign rights of the individual
states, a constitutional interference
with the rights of the people; a
police rule which would be hateful to
the people; would outlaw recognize
ed and lawful business recently de-
cared so by the supreme court OF the
Ulited States would constitute de-
struction of property, and in the
absence of provision for compensa-
ton would be in defiance of justice.
"Once the power of confiscation by
constitutional amendment is conced-
ed, the constitutional guaranty of pro-
lection of all property would be with
out meaning" concluded the state

Big ROCK KNOCKS
CARS into RIVER
Three Cars of Two Colorado
Trains on Brink When
They Come to Stop.

Glenwood Springs, Col, May IA
More than a score were injured today
when a huge boulder crushed down
the mountain side, four miles east. of
Basalt, AID struck combination
of cars in Consolidated Midland
trains Nos. and 5. Three cars-the
chair, diner and one sleeper-had
their ends dipping in the Frying Pan
river when, by a miracle, their de-
scent was haulted and tragedy
averted.
The rock slide, caused by the ex-
cessive rains, occurred without worn
ing, the great boulder ripping down
the mountain side and striking the
train with tremendous force.
