CHRISTMAS HYMN.
(By E. II. SearS.)

Calm on the listening ear of night
Come heavens melodious strains,
Where wild Judea stretches far
Her silver mantled plains.
Celestial choirs, from courts above,
Shed sacred glores there,
And angels, with their sparkling Tyres,
Make music on the air.
The answering hills of Palestine
Send back the glad reply;
And greet from all their holy heights
The day-spring from on high.
Ger the blue depths of Galilee
There comes holier calm,
And Sharon waves, in solemn praise,
Her silent groves of palm.
GLORY to God!' the sounding skies
Loud with their anthems ring
Peace to the earth, good will to men,
From heavens eternal King"

He Protests; Faces Charge

Hewes Street, Brooklyn, was found
guilty yesterday in the Fifth Avenue
Court, of obstructing traffic. Sentence
was suspended. He mas yet to answer
a charge of assaulting Patrolman
Charles Kerrigan, of the Coney Island
station. Both accusations arise from
the same incident.
The evidence was that after Kerrigan
had ordered Katlin to move his automo-
ollie from the retricted zone in Coney
Island. where he had parked it, they be-
came involved in an argument during
which the Senator pushed the patrol
man from the running board of his
car.
Magistrate Eilperin said that he was
sorry to have to find Senator Katlin
guilty, but he was bound to be guided
by the record.
You mean that you must take the
word of the officer against my word
and that Of my wife," Senator Katlin
said. Il believe you are right accord
ing to the record. The trouble is that
the record reeks with perjury"
Are you sorry for this occurrence ?'

position when private organization,
corporation or individual seeking
legislation from his committee either
contributes money to him or pays his
bills or expends money for him in
