Improvements.
J. H. Coffer's restaurant at Seabright
was moved last week by Matthews
Brothers of Red Bank. The building is
18x60 feet. The building was moved to
the south side of the lot and Mr. Coffer
will build an addition to the north end
of the building.
Charles P. Irwin of Red Bank has the
contract for rebuilding John G. Gillig's
bulkhead between Fair Haven and
Oceanic. The bulkhead was damaged
by the recent storm.
New brass railings have been put up
on the stone steps leading to the en
trance of Asbury Methodist church at
Long Branch, The railings were the
gift of Jesse P. Monaharj.
M. P. Yard is moving a small frame
house at Keyport to the rear of the lot
and will build a store where the house
now stands. The store will be 15x40
feet.
Joseph Brakeley of Freehold has in. stalled a water system in his factory for
fire protection. Ho has also provided
several chemical fire extinguishers..
Smock & Evans of Red Bank have'
their new machine shop nearly inclosed. The shop is oh the river bank at
Fair Haven and is 20x85 feet.
James Campbell of Long Branch haB
built an addition to his house, comprising
two bedrooms and a bathroom.
Harry E. Chisman of Keyport has
bought a lot from William H. Watts

Frank Riddle of Mannsquan will build

The Red Bank people cannot get to
Belford or other points unless by a very
circuitous trip via Long BranchTlr Matawan. Business between Red Bank and
Belford, Atlantic Highlands and Seabright is greatly hampered through lack
.of better train service.
Of course, there is not enough in the
matter to concern the railroad greatly.
But neither would the cost "of a trip to
Red Bank and bac,k. between 5 and
o'clock, p. M. be a costly experiment.
And it would accommodate the public.
The new management of the Central
Railroad Company of New Jersey has
proved itself attentive to p'opular petitU
tions by being the first to give the public
a theatre train. No doubt the desire of
the people for another train to and from
Red Bank will be as ^courteously regarded. The indications are that the
new officers are not bound utterly to the
prejudices'and policies of predecessors.
More liberal tendencies toward enterprise
are to be observed. A request, therefore, for a little accommodation like the
addition to the schedule of a train to Red
Bank may be favorably entertained. It
would certainly be in line with progress
too.

upon their own invitation, and with a

the home of their victims and sought
admission. With honest and sincere
hospitality, the bridal parties made the
best of the situation, swallowed their
annoyance, made their unbidden guests
feel that they were overjoyed to see
them, invited them in and treated them

There are tew articles more appropriate for Christmas Gifts than
Jardinieres for plants, and Fern Dishes, uniting the artistic and useful,
and they never wear out. If a Palm, Boston Fern, Arancaria, or
•Azalea in bloom, is sent with a Jardiniere, or the Fern Dish prettily
filled with Ferns, it is still more acceptable,
I offer for the Holiday season a great assortment of Jardinieres and Fern Dishes in all sizes;, and, as I buy in quantity direct
from the makers, I am offering them at much lower prices than they
can be had for elsewhere. As to Palms, Ferns, Etc., I have them in
almost.endless variety and sizes.

Broad Street, Red Bank. N. J .
RAILROADS MUST VACATE.
THEY'CAN NOT OCCUPY PUBLIC
HIGHWAYS.
The Court of Errors and Appeals
... Decided an Important Vane last
Week-Cases In Point at Bed Bank
and Atlantic JUghlanas.
Edmund Wilson of, Red Bank has won
the suit against the New York and Long
Branch railroad, which compels the
railroad to vacate one of the streets jn
South Amboy. The railroad seized the
street after it had befcn laid out and held
itagainst the public. It put up a building on it and shut the public entirely
out; of the use of the highway.
The case has been before the courts
. for more than a dozen years. • The street
had been laid out as a highway before
the New York and Long Branch railroad company was organized, but in
spite of this fact the railroad occupied
thestreet, maintained obstructions there,
and refused to remove them. When the
case was taken into court the railroad
gained some temporary advantages, at
first, and it waa thought for a time that
it would be impossible to dislodge the
railroad from the occupancy of the
street, or to make it give up' its possession of the highway., When Mr.
Wilson- came into the case he took up
the matter in a different way, proceeding by bringing an action in ejectment.The case was carried through all the
' courts !of the state and last week the
court of •rrors and appeals decided that
the railroad had no right to the street
and that it must give up possession of
the same.
The law which forced the railroad to
vacate this street was invoked by Mr.
Wilson in the interest of Red Bank
when the railroad refused to put down a
crossing on Oakland street. The people
of the western part of Red Bank had
been clnmorous .for a crossing over the
railroad at that street for many years,
hut the railroad had refused to recognize
their demands. When General^ John
Sheehan got in the board of commissioners he made a determined effort to
have this crossing put down, and the
matter was finally roferred to Mr. Wilson, with instructions to begin suit unless the railroad company consented to
maintain a crossing. It waa just about
that time that Mr. Wilson had beaten the
railroad company in one of the courts on
the South Amboy cnse and the railroad
agreed to put the crossing down without
further trouble if the commissioners
would wait until that summer's busisess
was over. This offer was accepted and
in due time the crossing was constructed
and itJias since been maintained.
Atlantic Highlands is said to have a
similar case, but now that the court of
errors and appeals has decided that railroads can not occupy streets, some of the
people of Atlantic Highlands think that
they .may get their street opened. The
street occupied by the railroad at Atlantic
Highlands is Mount avenue. This street
runs from the residential section of the
toivn to the business part of tho place,
crossing the railroad on the way. Some
years ago the railroad built a pumping
station in the middle of the street. More
recently Che railroad has built a big toolhouse in the street also, and since then it
has put up a fence which has completely
shut out the public. The commissioners
•of Atlantic Highlands have sent frequent
notices to the railroad company, telling
them to vacate the street, but the railroad company has treated these notices
with silont contempt. The people ore
.anxious to hare the commissioners begin
faction against the company to make it
vacate the highway, and now tbat°the
highest court of the state has decided
against the railroad in a similar case, the
people there nre hoping for relief from
this encroachment. People coming into
Atlantic Highlands by way of Mount
avenue drive down Mount avenue until
they reach the street west of the railroad,
when they have to make a detour of a
block in order to cross the traotcs.
Andrew J. C. Stokes Buys Property.
Andrew J. C. Stokes of Freehold has
bought six properties at that place from
John B. Gordon. Tho properties include
two houBesand lots on Monmouth avenue occupied by William E. Johnes and
Luther VanDorn ; a house and lot in the
P,each Orchard occupied by Henry Brophy'; a house and lot on Center street
occupied by Austin Fitzgerald; two vacant lots in WeBt End ; one vacant lot
in East End, and one vacant lot on
Union avenue.

WHAT SHALL I GIVE?
£
That is the great question of the hour. What to give that will be acceptable, that
will give the recipient lasting pleasure, and that will come within the limits one can afford.
We print below some, suggestions. In our large stores we have so great a variety
of things that will make fitting presents that we cannot even'name one-tenth of them. The
only way you can get a fair idea of what we have in the way. of Christmas gifts is to make
a visit to our'store. Then you can see the goods themselves, you cart see how excellent
they are in quality,- and how cheap they are in price. Here are some of the things.we
might mention: .
Pictures,
Dinner Sets,
Crokonole Boards, Bric-a-Brac,
Lamps,
Tabourettes,
Medicine Cabinets, Pocket Knives,

f
One of our strong points has been, our Holiday Furniture. This is not the usual
cheap goods, made up showy, in order to sell at a cheap price. It is the pick of the best
manufacturers, made to stand the sudden changes of temperature of our climate, and. above
all, made to stand the sudden changes from extreme humidity to extreme dry ness, which
makes so much furniture look like the traditional "thirty cents." Our furniture is .handsome, well-made and moderate in price. A piece of our furniture will give happiness for
years to come to any man or woman who takes pride in a nicely furnished home. Here
are a:few ideas in this line:
•
A Lady's Desk, in golden oak' or mahogany finish,
carved or plain front, with drawer and pigeon holes.
A great variety of styles from $3.25 up.
A Morris Chair, fittings all of brass, reversible cushions of velour or other durable stuffs, in a. great variety of woods, from $3.98 to $20.00. Morris Rockers,
exceptionally well made, at $9.00 to $16.00.
A Fancy Rocker, leather cobbler seat, carved back,
.some of colonial style, in golden "oak,-mahogany and
other woods ; all prices, ranging from $2.00 up.
A China1 Closet, plate glass front in golden oak,
glass shelves, elegant and dainty carvings, round
ends, canopy top; beveled plate glass mirror at top.
A Bookcase, to keep the family library, which in
these days is always getting larger. Nothing like a
bookcase to keep books in good condition. A great
variety of styles, sizes and kinds of woods. A bookcase encourages the young folks of the family to increase the store of books, makes the home more attractive and does more to add to the enjoyment of
the home than almost any other piece of furniture.
A Music Cabinet, keeps the musie together and in
good condition, any piece can always be found when
wanted ; daintily made and beautifully decorated.
-

'
A Parlor Cabinet, to display choice china, curios
and family heirlooms; an attraction to any room and
the price is as attractive as the cabinet.
Dainty Chairs, various styles and designs, to carry
out the modern idea of variety in the home ; all of
them pretty, all of them moderate in price.
A Comfortable Couch, as high or as low- in price as
you wish to go ; excellent value for your money no
matter what grade you buy; some with adjustable
heads ; all of them covered with durable upholstery ;
just the thing for papa when he comes home from
work tired out, and just the thing to give mamma a
little rest when she has a few spare minutes during
the day. Good ones at $3.T5 ; better ones at $8.00
and $9.00 ; and extra good ones at $18.00.
A Set of Dining Room Furniture, Table and Chairs,
Extension Table, chairs.cane seat, or upholstered in.
leather; never before so good for so little money.
Tables, $3.50 to $22.00. Chairs, $1.00 to $3.00 each.
A Sideboard—most families can't get along without
them now; haridjr for the table cutlery, for the glassware, for the napkins and table cloths. Carved or
plain fronts, double and single doors, convenient
drawers, some with shelves for display purposes;
§9.00 to $80.00.
-H FOR THE CHILDREN '&The children do not want to be forgotten. They are an important part of the household on Christmas. In many families they are the most important members of the household on that day. We have provided for them, though we can't begin to tell in this advertisement of all the things .we have for them. But here are some reminders :
A Pair of Skates, wooden tops or club skates, also
racing skates for the youngster who thinks he is a
skating sharp ; prices from almost nothing up.
•A Eocking Horse, the greatest plaything a child
ever had—children in the ark cried for their turn on
the rocking horse and this plaything has kept up its
popularity ever since. Comfortable seats for the
little riders where they .can't fall; will last a family's
lifetime.
•
s
A Velocipede for the youngster, girl or boy, who is
just too big for the rockiqgjrorsej Rubber tires, steel
wheels, comfortable seat, and easy running axletrees ;
lasts forever; $1.25 up.
A Gun, if the boy is old enoujgh to properly use it.
'Twill give the boy a heap of pleasure and it will send
him out in the fields and woods a good deal, and it's,
worth its price for that reason "alone. ^AU breachloaders, thus ensuring safety. All the equipments
for the gun also.
A Pair of Gloves, that no cold can come through;
will keep the hands warm in the bitterest, zero
weather ; every male member of the family ought to
have a pair of these ; 25c. to $2.50.
A Sled—There will be lots of opportunity to use it
this winter, for there's going to be a good deal of
snow according to the goose's wishbone and the
squirrel stories. We sell the steerable kind as well as
ordinary sleds.
•
An Express Wagon, made of wood, gaily painted,
useful for a child to haul things in as weft as desirable
as a toy; 95 cents to $2.00.
A Doll Carriage, all styles and all sizes, some with
canopies, some without, pretty as can be, and will delight any girl.
Children's Desks, will enable the boy or girl to keep
his belongings together; will teach him habits of
neatness and will always be a source of pride to him.
Maybe one pf the things we have mentioned above is not exactly what you have been
thinking of getting. No matter, come to our store—if it's in our line it's here, and it's
here at the price you can afford to pay. It's as good as a visit to a bazar to come to our
store, and if you don't want to ^buy, or have made up your mind to buy elsewhere this
year (which isn't probable, of course) come just the same, and you'll get an idea of the
prices. We want to see you whether you buy anything or not. There won't be any hard
feelings on our part if you don't buy a cent's worth, but we rea,lly do want you to see our
things.

"Its all right," he said, dropping into
a Beat beside Xafarge. "I've' sent a
message that on no account must they
let McGrath bring those things Into the
house."
He relapsed into gloomy meditations,
from witch Lafarge charitably endeavored to" arouse him.
' "The Mallorys are a fine, old fashioned family," said he. "Here's'the
grandfather—a magnificent, patriarchal
old chap—and Mr. and Mrs. Mallory,

Hale writhed in his seat.
The Clyde la an apartment house of a
pretentious character. Liveried servants open doors and stand ready to answer questions with glib misinformation, Lafarge and Hale entered, leaving Wallace to search for McGrath on
the outside.
.
"Yes, sir," said an obsequious youth)
"the man was here, but we got.a mes' sage from you, that we mustn't let him
bring the bundle into the house."
"What did you do?" demanded Lafarge.
"We sent word up stairs," responded
the liveried youth, "and Miss Mallory
came down and brought the bundle In:
She said she understood what yon
meant."
"Lafarge, this Is fate!" said Hale,
striding toward the elevator, with a
BCOWI upon,his face that made the colored man in charge of the car turn
white.
"•
A neat mnid opened the door of the
Mallory apartments.
"The things you- sent have come, Dr.
Lafarge," she suld.
The chemist responded with a groan,
as he leaned for a mouieut against the
wall.
. . .
"Why, what's the matter, Donald?"
asked a most agreeable voice, adding
immediately: "How do ,you do, Dr.
Hale? I'm so glad Donald brought you
along."
"Grace," gasped' Lafarge, "what did
you do with that bundle?"
The girl seemed bewildered by the
strange .behavior of the man, but she
could hare no notion that anything
really serious had happened. All this
must bo a part of the agreeable mysteries of the Christmas season. Perhaps Dounld was afraid that the people
for whom the gifts were intended had
Been them prematurely.
A boy of ton stood heslde her, his
arm around her waist. She disengaged
herself from the child, and, turning
lilin around till his "back was toward
her, gave him a gentle tap between the
shoulders.
"Run along, Bert," said she. "This is
confidential."
"She's hidden all the presents. Uncle
Donald," said the boy. "But I'll bet I
know where they are."
"Hurry, Grace!" said Donald, approaching her.
"I put tbe package in Aunt Sarah's
room," whispered the girl. "It's right
by the foot of her bed. Aunt Sarah has
'nerves,'" she added, smiling at Hale.
"The children don't dare to rummage

Hnle'niid Lnfnrgc exchanged nn ago. nlzed glance, and the latter stepped
hastily toward a passage that ran rearward.
"Donald, what is the matter?" exclaimed Grace, running after him and
laying a hand upon his arm.
"That's right," cried Hale. "Hold
him, and I'll Ret tlie thing."
Lafarge seized him by the shoulder,
and the three were for an instant most
absurdly posed.
"Grace," said Lafarge, "there has
been a fearful mistake. A package

mixed up with those presents."
•"My goodness! Is it poison?" she
gasped. "How dreadful! Yet it really
can't do any harm, since the mistake

ran straight against Hale, who, with
remarkable agility, placed himself in
her path.

Christmas without candy, toys and
flowers would not be much "of a Christmas in many homes. Especially it •"
would not be much of a Christmas for
the youngsters if they were to wake up "
on Christmas morning and find that old '
Santa Clans had forgotten to fill their
stockings up to the-top with toys and •
things... And what would Christmas be
to a little girl unless a doll were in her '
stocking? Old Santa Claus has a number of storehouses in Red Bank where
he can replenish his pack. Tetley &
Son's is one of them., They have books
of all kinds at all sorts of prices ; they
have dolls with jointed bodies and •
moving eyes; they have iron toys, me- '
chanical toys, and a big variety of playthings ; and they bave calendars and •
diaries.
F. W. Moselle makes a specialty of ' y
games for the amusement of children. '
Checkers, dominoes, crokinole, trip to
Paris, halma, and many other games '
are in his stock. He also has iron and'
tin toys, magic lanterns, trains of cars, • ,
and toys that will operate mechanically
when they have been wound up.
At Welter's five-and-ten-cent store on
Broad street are hosts of things suitable for gffts for the little folks and for
bigger folks as well. The stock is not
confined to articles that sell for five and '
ten cents, but there are dolls, toys and
household trifles that runup as high as '
a dollar or a dollar and a half. Horses !
and wagons, books and games, dolls' go- •
carts, and a variety of other goods make
it easy to get enough tMngs there to'fill
a dozen stockings, and yet to have all
the things different.
The variety, store of Frederic Stevens
on Broad street, adjoining Truex's grocery, is, as. its name implies, a store '
where small articles in great variety are•'" '
sold. Rings, buckles and other ornaments for girls and children might be
called Mr. Stevens'a specialty, if he has :
a specialty in a stock so varied as his. •
Hand-painted china, cut glass salt and
pepper holders, a nd novelties of all kinds
will be found here.

Charles B. Salter has just opened a
store in the Milward building on Shrewsbury arenue to supply that part of the
town with toys and games. Mr. Salter
keeps Christmas books, building blocks,
Christmas tree decorations, pocket
knives, and a great assortment of other
small goods suitable as Christmas gifts.
Laug's store is headquarters for candy,
not only for Red Bantt people, but for
people from, -many miles around the
town. The Laugs have been in the
candy business in. the town for more
than a quarter of a century. They keep '
all kinds of candy and a great part of
what they sell is manufactured on their
own premises, under their own- supervision. Besides the candy they make
on their own premises they sell Huyler's
candies, and they, also have a large
stock of Christmas tree ornaments.
NoChristma8 table is complete without floral-decorations. Blooming plants
make a continuous show for days and
weeks, but when these cannot be had cut
flowers supply the deficiency for odor,
color and beauty on the table. At Lovett's flower store, in THE REGISTER building, roses, carnations and other cut
flowers are kept constantly on hand, and
blooming plants can also be had there.
Jardinieries and fern dishes filled with
plants make as choice a Christmas gift as
can be imagined; while palms, rubber
plants and other winter house plants are
to be had in almost endless variety.
Those who lmve no opportunity to obtain
Christmas trees for their homos from
the woods, will bo able to get them at
Lovett's; and wreaths, holly, cro3se and
other Christmas decorations can also be
obtained at this store.
What would bo q Christmas table
without fruit'? or what would a boy
think if he did not find bis alioeH full of
assorted nuts on - Christmas ^morning? ••
In many places after Santa Claus has
filled the stock ings on Cliriqtmaa eve he '
amuses himself by filling the shoes of all
the youngsters with nuta of all kinds, '
and then hiding the shoes so that the
children can have a' little search for •
thorn,in the' morning. It is a nice old
oustom, this of Santa ClauB's, for it gives '
a peculiar interest to Christmas morning '

CAMERAS.
.
You could not well make a mistake in giving a camera as a Christmas gift, for there
is scarcely a boy or girl, young man or young woman, who would not be delighted with
one'—particularly with the kind I sell. I have'cameras in stock as low as $ji and from
that the prices range as high as\ you want to go—$206 for instance—but you can get
good cameras that will answer every purpose of the amateur photographer anywhere between $1 and;.$12.50. The* price is regulated largely by the size of the picture the
camera takes—the.work of all of .them is about the same. The cameras I Handle include
Premos, Eastman Kodaks, Cyclones, Vives, Centurys and Senecas.

He resumed his attack upon the food,

a most comfortable camp. The tents
were raised already, and the men might
take their ease without worry. Mason
leaned back against a, hillock and, drawing a tiny pamphlet from an inside pocket
of his faded army coat, studied it attentively. The others did not notice him for

hunter after prey.
',
Forward he went, searching, the Interlacing ..bushes with his keen eyes, his
rifle at the cock and every muscle tense
and ready for action. His stained and
dark uniform would have made a blot on
the snow, but he, kept to the cover of
the bushes, and no one looking there
would have known that a man was
passing.
H e could hear the notes of the Christmas hymn swelling in a chorus of many'
voices, but it was unheeded.. Mason now
had work to do, and he meant to do i t
He crept on up the ravine'and near the
hill stopped, and listened intently. H e
thought that he heard a'soft crunch on
the snow, as of some one moving behind
a thick,clump of bushes that grew near,
but he was not sure whether it was a
friend or an enemy. He approached a
little, lying down oil the snow, and drew
himself forward with body outstretched
like a snake. H e heard the sound again,
very faint now—so faint that it would
have passed unnoticed by any ear less
keen than his own.
Mason felt that it was an enemy behind the bushes—an enemy who knew
that danger was approaching and would
be cautious. ' His blood swelled with
the pride.of conflict and the emulation
of skill. He would watch this wary foe,
and his muscles became tenser than ever
. as he prepared for the test. He glanced
. only once at his rifle to see 'that the
weapon was ready and then resumed
his sliding and slow advance. He reached the clump of bushes and, laying his
ear to the snow, could hear nothing.
Bat he was confident that his foe was
still on the other side. 'He could not
have escaped unseen, and, sure alike
in his courage and his judgment, he
began to creep around the bushes, his
finger on the trigger, ready to fire at the
first glimpse. He reached the other
side, but nothing was there—only a trail
in the snow to show how his enemy, too,
had made the circuit—and the bushes
still stood between.
But Mason was sot discouraged. He
.did not expect to catch the man without
trouble. The unknown would, have been
a very cheap sharpshooter indeed If he
had allowed himself to be overtaken so
easily, and Masou felt pleased because
the enemy matched against bis skill and
courage seemed altogether worthy of
him.
He began the second circuit of the
bushes, more careful now than ever, not
making the slightest noise, lest his enemy
should hear and take warning. When
he was half way arou.'cd, the sound of
shots to both left and right .rose, and he
knew that his comrades were in battle
with the other sharpshooters. But they
were too far away to be seen, and he did
not take his mind from his own particular part of the work. It was ona of the
merits of Mason that he knew how to
attend to his own business.
He was as patient now as the Indians
whom he imitated, creeping forward and
then turning back, seeking to entrap his
•wary foe. But the man seemed to return with him every time and still remained >hWden. Mason could not tell whether i his enemy was endeavoring to
escape or pursue. He laughed noiselessly at the thought that he himself
might be pursued while he was pursuing.
Well, it did not matter. It merely made
the test of skill all the more interesting.
"The Dhephcrds went their hasty way."
He heard the notes of the music agniu,
louder and clearer than ever, and then
more rifle shots. The skirmish was flaring into increased activity. He listened
to it a moment, although be never doubted that bis comrades would win. But
he trusted that they would not win too
soon, as he wished to finish his own
affair without help.' ,
Then he turned suddenly and went
swiftly back on his own track, catching
a glimpse of a dark figure around the
curve of the bushes. He raised his rifle
and fired, but not quicker than the other
man.
The reports were simultaneous,
and a bullet clipped the clothing on
Mason's shoulder. Whether his enemy
was struck or not he did not know, and
there was no sound.
Mason was annoyed. H e must device
some method of finishing it quickly. He
lay quite still and pondered deeply for
a minute or two. Then an idea came to
him. He took off his cap, placed it on
the end of his gun barrel and, lying fiat,
thrust it out in front of him, raising it
slightly in the air. He made no mistake.
There was a flash, a report, and a'bullet
whistled through.the cap. Springing to his
feet, loaded rifle in hand, he ran forward.
His enemy, trapped so neatly, leaped
up; his empty rifle still smoking at the
muzzle, and ran through the thickets.
Mason followed fast. The. passion of
the chase was upon him, and he resolved
that the man should not escape. He
raised his rifle once and marked a spot
on the fugitive's back where he could
plant a bullet. But be did not like to do
it. He would rather shoot him in fight
face to fnce.
The man as he ran made desperate effortB to reload his rifle, but failed. Presently he threw it away, as if ho feared
that it would impede his flight. Then he
ran faster. But Mason, too, increased
his speed. Tho despairing fugitive heard
the crunching footsteps on the snow
v
coming closer and closer.
They roaened a little glen, and hero the
fugitive sank down among some bushes,
exhausted.
"Throw up your hands!" cried Mason,
raising his rifle.

The sounds of the combat elsewhere had

They could not hear the noises of the
camp—only the sounds of the Christmas
song.

evening and then had shaken off began
to steal over Mason again.'

suddenly- cried the man.
"Yes, I hear it." '
"Do you know what It means?"
' "Yes; it is Christmas night. You need
not tell me that. I know it. What havo
you or the likes of you to do with such a
night as this?"
Markham looked up into his face.
"It's not me, Dan; it's you that ought
to think about it,!' he said. "It's murder, Dan, if you kill me—me an unarmed:

night as this—Christmas night, with that
song ringing in your ears. Whenever you

'You led me a long chase around that

"Three or four times I thought I had

'And three or four times I thought I

"Maybe BO," replied Mason, who was

GOLDEN MISTLETOE.
The Wonderful Tree in a Beattti The Poor Were Xat Foraotton 'in

/til drove.
There is an anoient custom for ftie
reotor.of Piddlo Hinton, in Dorsetshire,
to give away on old Christmas day, the
6th of January, annually, a pound of
bread, a pint of ale and a minoe pie to
every poor person in tho parish, and this
distribution is rogularly made by the
reotor to upward of 800 poor persons.
At Stafford there ia an old charity for
providing ,poor people with plums for
their Christmas puddings, and a kind
hearted man at Bnrnham left a sum
sufficient' to provide the inmates of the
poorhouse of the parish with a Christmas dinner, followed by a proper supply
of ale, tdbacoo and snuff.
At frinoo Risbbrough, in Bucking
ham'shire, there was a very singnlar
Christmas usage. Up to about 1818 a
bull, a boar, a saok of whoat and a Back
of malt were given away to the poor by
tho lord of tho manor at about 6 o'clock
every Christmas morning. This practice
was then discontinued, and for about
five or six years beef and mutton were
distributed in piaoe of the above artiolea.
Mr. Grubb—fit name for the dispenser
of what Rittinaster Dugald Dalgetty
would call "the provend"—of the parsonage honse, the then lord of the manor, whose father first stopped the above
oustom.ary distribution, produced to the
commissioners of charities a case whioh
his father had laid before a justice, relative to this custom, with a view of obtaining the opinion of counsel as to
whether it could be sustained as a custom ut common law, and whether he
should be subject to legal process if ho
omitted to make the distribution.
It appears from the document that
the custom had then prevailed for a
considerable number of .years; that it
was mentioned in the local histories,
but that its origin was lost in obsourity.
The praotioe, while it lasted,"seems to
have been productive of muoh intoxication and riot. The poor, are said to have
paraded the town during the whole
night preceding the distribution with
an incessant clamor, effectually banishing all repose. On the following morning they marched in crowds to Mr.
Grubb's house, and these assemblies often comprised many Btrangers as well as
parishioners. On the doors being opened
they all rushed to the feast prepared for
them with so little decorum and forbearance that often in their zeal for
priority they inflioted wounds on one
another with their knives. The whole
Remaining portion of Christmas day, it
is stated, was spent by many of them in
the public houses. The justice before
whom the matter was heard waB of the
opinion that this custom was not sustainable OB a common law right, and
the charity commissioners reported that
they had received no sufficient evidence
that the custom could be considered BB

Acoepting, then, this prevalent faith
in the actual lifo and soul of the trees,
we must pass on to the snbjebtson hand
—the goldon bough or mistletoe—the
' olassio gloomy vale and its locality,
wherein the legend of Balder the Beautiful and his death by the mistletoe
shaft are in touch with the anoient doctrines of tree worship.
It is often stated that Virgil gave this
name of tho golden bough to the mistletoe, whereas he only compares it with
the mistletoe.'
In the sixth book of the "iEneid" he
' tells us how two doves, guiding iEneaa
to the gloomy vale, in whose depth grew
the golden bongh, alighted upon a tree
"whence shone a flickering gleam of
gold. As in the woods in winter odd,
the mistletoe—a plant not native to its
tree—is green with fresh leaves and
twines its yellow berries about the
boles. Snoh seemed npon> the shady oak
the leafy gold, so rustled in the gentle
breeze the golden leaf." Virgil does not.
eay it is the mistletoe, and yet what
else? Its identification is perfect.
The poet locates the gloomy vale in
the neighborhood of Lake Avornus, but
Italian tradition, aa recorded by Servius, points to the grove of Kemi, Aricia.
Now the story of this Arioian grove is
embodied in Macaulay's lines:

SWISS CHRISTMAS DINNER.
Iloast Goose. Occupies the Place of
Honor—The National
OIHII.
In this beautiful country, where the
laws and the customs vary in every canton, tho mistress of the kitchen has a
wide variety of German, Italian and
French cooking to seleot from. But on
ChristmaB day, although all these styles
may be united on one table, there is an
invariable although unwritten law that
roast goose shall bo the ohief dish. The
dessert is a marvelous mixture of Swiss
confectioneries, comprehending everything from little cocoanut oakes to elaborate structures of flour and sugar interspersed with all sorts of nuts and Bjball
fruits.
But between the opening goose and
the olosing patisserie is introduced the
really national Christmas dish called
the Geneva fritters. These fritters are
made after the following rocipe:.

had slain his.predecessor, and, in course
