Arabian Nights.

The Arabian tales, like the romances
Of chiyalry, convey us into the fairy
realms, but the human personages
which they introduce are very dissim-
liar.
These tales had their birth after the
Arabians, yielding the empire of the
sword to the Tartars, the Turks, and
the Persians, had devoted themselves
to commerce, literature, and the arts.
We recognize in them the style of a
mercantile people, as we do that Of
warlike nation. in the rOmances OF
chivalry. Riches and. artificial lux
uries dispute the palm with the splen-
did gifts of the fairies. The heroes
increasingly traverse distant realms,
and the interests of merchandise excite
their active curiosity, as much as the
love of renown awakened the spirit
Of the ancient knights.-Anonymous

Differing Types Of Marble.

In its tests Of So different types of
marbles, the United States bureau Of
standards has found the compressive
strength Of the dry material to range
between 1850 and 5O,25O pounds per
square inch. Wet specimens were usu-
ally somewhat weaker. and in few
instances loss of strength from soak
ing was as great as Is per cent. Az

specimens were much weakened,
though some were little affected, while
few were actually strengthened. The
electrical resistance varies so greatly

terial for switchboard. Marbles ex-
pand irregularly on heating, and part

SANTA BANNED BY
PURIT AN FAT HERS
No Christmas Festivities or
Gifts for Children in Massa-
chusetts in Early Days
DAY JUST LIKE ANY OTHER
Condition Somewhat Better for Young
sters in New Amsterdam-Holida
Observance ToyIess in the Colo
MES in Seventeenth Century

In the early days Of this country's
history Christmas festivities were not
generally observed and poor old "San-
ia Claus" and all he represents, had
a hard time of it.
In Massachusetts the observation Of
Christmas was utterly denounced as
an evil, ungodly and pernicious Gus
tom, and any child daring to think Of
as much as plum pudding on that
day would make herself liable to re-
proof by the authorities. All along
the stern and rock-bound coast, Ger
aldine Ames writes in the Churchman.
the only Christmas trees in the days
of the Puritan domination were those
that nature had planted there and had
adorned with fleecy snow. The fires
burned brightly on the open hearths,
but as far as the children knew
Christmas was just like any other day
In the calendar. Even after the Pur-
ftan reaction against the forms and
customs of the old church had spent
itself to some extent the children of
the seventeenth century still expected
no gifts in honor of the birth Of Christ.
In New Amsterdam the outlook was
a little better for the children. The
Hollanders had brought with them
their st. Nicholas, and his birthday
was celebrated joyously by young and
old just before Christmas, but Christ
mas was also observed OF course,
they had not many real toys as we
know them today, but in the shoes
that the little Hollanders set by the
fireplace in the shining kitchen, which
was also the living room, were home
made gifts. Many Of these were Of
a useful character. such as hand-knit
caps and mittens, but now and then
a skillful Hollander would carve
model of boat such as that which
mad brought them to New Amsterdam,
or miniature chest of drawers. and
one can fancy the recipients showing
these with pride to the wondering
little Indian boys and girls when they
came to be on terms of sufficient am
ity with them for such conferences.

Madison of Sacramento. Calf. was
shot and instantly killed today by Ger
man soldiers in the neutral zone about
mile from the boundary of the
Coblenz bridgehead.
Madsen and Private Bert Balsinger
of the Eighth infantry, who had been
on outpost duty, were deer hunting
when they encountered a German
patrol of thirteen soldiers. According
to Balsinger, the Germans began fir
ing without asking an explanation as
to why the two Americans were in the
neutral zone.
Balsinger told the American au-
thorities that when he and Madsen
encountered the Germans he was sew
eral yards ahead of Madsen. Bah
singer said he dropped his rifle as
soon as he saw the Germans, who a
second afterwards began to shoot at
Madsen. The Germans contend that
Madsen fired at them. Balsinger de-
clared that the Germans fired first
and that if Madsen had fired he did
not see him shoot or hear the shot.
Balsinger was taken prisoner by the
Germans and later turned over to the
American provost marshal, Major
George Cockreil, and brought to Cob
lenz. Madsen will be buried in the
American cemetery at Coblenz.
