REMINDERS OF CHRISTMAS,
Steamers Carrying Packages To and
From the Home Folks"

These are busy days at the offices of
the steamboat lines running to the
landings on the Potomac river, and the
clerks are putting in long hours re-
ceiving and sending out Christmas
packages. Living in Washington are
many thousands of persons who came
from the river counties of Maryland
and Virginia to try their fortunes in
the big city. To most of them fortune
has been kind and Christmas is the
time for remembering the home folks.
Commencing with the trips from this
city last Saturday and continuing
through this week, the steamers car
ried and will carry hundreds of pack
ages containing Christmas remem-
brances to the folks at home, and the
steamers bring baskets and
boxes of poultry. home-killed meats,
cakes and other good things from the
home place to absent ones here.
1t is not at all uncommon for the
steamers arriving here a day or two
before Christmas to have aboard
thousand or more small packages con-
signed to former residents of Maryland
and Virginia now making Washington
their home. The river steamers arriv-
ing this morning brought full cargoes
of Christmas stuff.

POTOMAC OYSTERS SCARCE.
Dealers May Have to Get Christmas
Supplies From Bav Points

II now looks as If the Christmas oys-
ter market at the wharf will be poorly
supplied with oysters from the lower
Potomac and that the dealers will have
to bring oysters here from bay points
IN barrels. Monday four oyster boat
arrived, bringing about 5000 bushels,
and, as the dealers uptown were all
snort on stock, the boats were able to
sell out before Monday evening. Yes
terday one boat arrived. but this morn
ing she was lying at the oyster dock
with no oysters aboard. having sold out
Yesterday. 1t is stated that a number
OF the dredge boats that catch oysters
for this market and Baltimore have
been laid up for the holidays. and this
has made the catch short Buyers for
the Baltimore market are bidding high
Tor the oysters being caught, and while
the Washington runboats succeed in
buying considerable portion of the
catch, the quantity caught is nothing
ike large enough to give cargoes to all
the runboats down river There is a
possibility of several boats with good
cargoes arriving in the next twenty
four hours. but positive knowledge
that they will be here is had.

that four anonymous givers had pledged

1t was reported unofficially that those

'OH, PRICKLY PORKY, I'M IN GREAT
TROUBLE" CRIED PETER.

out while Hooty still sat on guard, but
he knew that Shadow is too sharp to
do anything like that.
"Hooty will give up after a WHILE"
thought Peter. HE isn't going to waste
splendid night like this. He'll find
out that Shadow is too smart to take
any foolish chances and then he'll give
up and hunt for some one else. Shadow
will wait until he is sure it is safe to
come out. and then he'll follow my
tracks. I know him! He'll hunt me
all the harder to make up for this
Whatever am l going to do?"
All the time he was thinking Peter
was running. Presently as he was
passing tall tree he saw several
queer looking little things on the
snow. They-were about as long as pine
needles. but thicker in the middle and
black and white. Peter knew what
they were right away. OF course He
had seen them too often and he had
too much respect for them not 10
know them the instant he saw them.
They were some of the little spears
which Prickly Porky the Porcupine
carries in his coat.
Peter stopped and looked up in the
tall tree. There. sure enough, was
Prickly Porky. A sudden hope flashed
up in Peters heart. Perhaps Prickly
Porky would help him. He knew that
Shadow. like everybody else, was
afraid of the thousand little spears

for any but anxious thoughts. He was
wondering with all his might how long
it would be before Hooty the Owl
would grow tired of watching for
Shadow the Weasel to come out of

driven by Hooty. Peter wished with
all his heart that Shadow would come

to protect himself.
"Oh. Prickly Porky, I'm in great
trouble" cried Peter.
That's nothing new. is it? Seems to
me you're in trouble most Of the time.
Never saw such a fellow for getting
into trouble. Unk, hnk."
But this is the worst trouble | ever
have been in and-and IL thought
mered Peter.
Huh. People who get themselves
into trouble should get themselves out
again." grunted Prickly Porky. What
is it this time?''
Then Peter told how he was running
from Shadow the Weasel, and how
hopeless he felt. because there was no.
where he could go that Shadow could
not follow. He will follow my tracks,
and he is so much smaller than i that
there isn't single place in which
can hide that he cannot find me.
thought perhaps you would be willing
to come down and protect me. II
just don't know what to do" There
was a sob in Peters voice.
Me come down and sit around in
the snow and get my feet so cold
they wouldn't get warm again tonight

What do you take me for. Peter? II
Shadow was coming this very minute
l might do II, but there is no knowing
when he will get here. Besides, You
don't need any help from me All
you've got to do is to go straight home
to the Old Brier Patch. l wonder you

But he'll follow me there and not
only catch me, but catch Mrs. Peter

No such thing grunted Prickly

SKATERS ON THE zoo POND.
Today's Sport Said to Be First En-
Joyed Here This Season,

young America of Washington
turned his attention this morning from
what Santa" is going to bring to how
thick the ice is on the pond at the Zoo.
Evidently he was satisfied, for in jif-
fly skates were procured and he was
soon skimming over the pond. Today's
outdoor skating is said to be the first
enjoyed this year by local devotees.
The cold snap of the last few days
has caused the ice to freeze rapidly and
number took advantage of the fact
to get away. from school and office early
that they might enjoy the sport.
