Christmas Spirit in GAINESVILLE.

Plans for caring for the poor of
GAINESVILLE have been left to special
committee of the Elks, Associated
Charities, the Salvation Army and the
Boy Scouts organizations. The Fra
ternal Order of Eagles plan for a
Christmas tree Dec. "a, at which 600
presents with candy will be given the
poor children of the city. One butcher
has offered the Elks committee 300
pounds of beef as a starter for the
Christmas dinners, and a leading flour
concern has donated 100 sacks of flour
The work of delivering the baskets will
be handled by the Boy Scouts.
Under the auspices of the GAINESVILLE
Commercial club, the business streets
of the city have been decorated with
1900 eight-foot evergreen trees, placed
in small tubs, some 80 feet apart.

EIectest Animals.

Writers Of century ago were firm
in the conviction that the greyhound
was the fastest living animal; some
maintained that he could run a mile in
a minute. Modern observers, however,
have found that the best hound is by
no means able to keep pace with
trained race horse. Indeed the late j.
A. Graham, careful student of such
matters, used to say that no living
animal could outfoot a modern race
horse.
A first rate horse running his best
and not handicapped by carrying
rider can run mile in less than 100
seconds. A fleet hound, such as those
used in cOursing, can run a mile in
about minute and fifty seconds. A
jack rabbit is nearly as fast, and an
antelope is considerably faster. Mr..
Graham thought an antelope might
run a mile across the level prairie in
a minute and forty-fVe seconds.
On the other hand, Mr.. Cottar, an
old African hunter, thinks that Thorn
sons gazelle would have no trouble
whatever in running away from the
fastest horse and that Grants gaZelle
and the gerenuk are almost equally
fieet.-Youth's Companion.

WAR time prosperity has come to the
little village of Benton, in Lafayette
county, probably as to no other section
of Wisconsin,, with the result that that
village of 652 population will pay an
average income tax for the year of
$104.85 for each man, woman and child.
The total tax for the year is 500, 1853. OF,
according to the income assessor for
Green and Lafayette counties. The
immense income tax which will be paid
by this village is a result of general
activity in the mining industry. Under
the income tax law 70 per cent of the
tax collected reverts to the town, 20
per cent to the county and the remain
ing 10 per cent to the state, so that in
the case of Benton the town will re-
ceive more than sufficient taxes, it is
estimated, to meet the needs of the
town for three years, and it will be
possible to avoid assessing other taxes.

THE annual reports of Secretary of
War Newton D. Baker and Maj. Gen.
Hugh L. Scott show wide divergence
Of opinion in decided difference as to
facts in the military condition of the
United States. Secretary Baker says
everything is we'll in the army, except
possibly few minor ailments; General
Scott says nothing is we'll, except few
minor considerations. Baker says re-
cruiting is increasing; Scott declares
the army is about 40,000 short of its
present peace strength. Baker says
the National guard will probably con-
sist of about 457, ZOO men, auxiliary TO
the regular army; Scott says the Ma
tional guard sadly fell down in the re-
cent border mixup and that it is today
several thousand short of its minimum
strength. Baker praises the guard;
Scott says it is a military failure. So
there you are.

Money No Object,

AS an instance Of the reckless char

chaises, with four horses to each.
drawn up at the door Of the Kings
Arms hotel. These were presently
driven off. On tnquiring what great
person had arrived, the officer was
informed that all this display was the
freak of a common sailor, who had
just received $500 in prize money, and
having been granted but weeks
leave, his ingenuity had devised the
most ostentatious mode of getting rid
of this windfall. He had hired one
chaise and four for himself, another
for his hat and a third for his cudgel.
It was his intention to make the trip
to London and back, which would, he
hoped, nearly consume the whole sum-"

Two of the earliest Christmas plays
that have come down to us are to be
of Hilarius, monk of the twelfth GEN.
tury, who is said TO have been an
Englishman and who is known to have
been pupil of the monk Abelard. Of
the three mystery plays which he is
thought to have written in collabora
ton with Jordanus and Simon, prob
ably brother monks, two were evident

NEEDLESS NAVAL STRENGTH.
"A nation without a merchant ma
rine, with public press clamoring
for a great war navy, reveals a con-
dition that must give us pause.
Let us suppose that today we had
the greatest navy in the world. We
would then have invested $1,000,-
100000 or about 1 per cent of the
total wealth of the United States.
What would we do with it? We
have no merchant marine to protect.
Shall we institute a policy of foreign
conquest in order to make it pay?
Some one thunders: I'VE want it for
defense" Friend, 81 spent in coast
defense is worth as mere matter of
defense as much as SIS spent on navy.
Let US not deceive ourselves, navies
are for conquest, usually for conquest
of trade, sometimes for conquest of
unprotected lands.
Great Britain's navy and merchant
marine net her about 100000 an
nually over and above all expenses of
maintenance and operation. She
needs her navy. She has got to have
it 1t pays.
We operate our navy with no trade
provinces, no merchant marine, no
foreign trade, at loss of about half
a billion annually. Yet our newspa-
pers thunder: "Give us the greatest
navy in the world" What for? We
have no way in the world of making
the one we have pay expenses.
Great Britain is not an example for
us to follow. She must develop from
without inward or cease to live as a
world power. We must develop from
within outward or continue to make
ourselves ridiculous in futile attempt
ed imitation.
