Dear Friends The feast of Christ
mas. which we aer about to cele-
brate, is, above all things, reminder
of Gods love for It's. God so loved
the world that He gave His own
Son to be our Saviour. And He came,
came, not in pomp and majesty, i'll
spring fear, but, in the sweet and at
tractive form of a little child. inspiring
love. God love- and love is the cs-
sencc of the Christian religion. There
fore, if we would be true Christians,
we would must cultivate spirit of
love, love OF God and love of Our
fellow beings. This spirit should be
manifested at all times, but especially
and in more impressive way at this
Holy Season. We contemplate the
infinite God under the form OF little
babe, lying in a manger, bereft OF
every material comfort, holding out
His little hands to us, telling us how
He loves us and how he longs to be
loved by us in return.
We should show our love in prac-
tical manner on Christmas day by de-
voutly assisting at Mass, and, if pos
sible by receiving our Saviour in
p Holy Communion. We should show
our love, too, by contributing gener-
ously for the support of the church.
Sacrifice is the best test oil our es-
TEEN of anything. or of any one, and
a willingness to make sacrifices for
them is the best proo' OF our love for
Christ and His church.

TragicDeath
of Clarence
Wise

A fatal accident, resulting in the
death of Clearance Wise, occurred in
Latapie canyon, about seven miles
west of the Sales brothers ranch, on
Walker river, yesterday morning
about 9 o'clock.
1t seems that Wise and cconpa-
ion named O'Brien were driving a
wagon loaded with wood down the
canyon, when the team became un-
manageable, left the road and over
turned the wagon.
Wise was buried beneath the wood,
and it was necessary 'ior O'Brien to
attach a chain to his leg and haul
him out with the aid of horse. Life
was extinct
The unfortunate man made no out
cry and was, no doubt, instantly
killed.
A coroner's inquest was held this
afternoon at the Phipps' undertaking
parlors, when DR.. Leavitt, who ex-
amined the body, testified that the
neck was broken, causing instant
death.
The jury, consisting of H. N. Willis,
Harry Lewis, Amos Quilici, returned
verdict in accordance with the above
facts. Miss Ivy Van Etten acted ast
stenographer.
Clarence Wise was Que of the best
known young men of the community
and his tragic death is the subject of
general discussion in the city. He
was native of Mason Valley, aged
81 years. and leaves a heart-broken
mother and three brothers to mourn
his untimely death.
The funeral will take place Friday
afternoon. under the direction OF
A. S. Phipps.
