A World’s Christmas.

In every portion of this great globe
of ours. where civilized man has a
home, the natal day of the Divine Sav-
iour of the world, will be more or less
observed. The consoling angel’s song of
“Peace on Earth, good will to men,’
has rolled down through these eighteen
centuries with an ever-increasing vol-
ume of human benefaction and bene-
diction. The poet’s prephetic yearning!
iii our grandest of missionary hymns
has been literally realized, and to-day
as never before recognized, that
“earth’s remotest nation has heard
Messiah’s name.” Who can doubt the
divine elements which surrounded the
coming to earth of the Christ-child on
the plains of Judea, in the little town
of Bethlehem, in view of its humaniz-
ing and ameliorating effects upon all
mankind through all the ages, and hOw
much of God-given happiness may be
ours to-day by making the life of some
pour child or fellOw-man, less hard, by
some simple gift or some kind, encour-
aging word, where other help is impos.
sible. Bear in mind it is not the value
of the thing given, so much as it is the
kindly spirit with which anything is
bestowed. It is one of the loveliest ex-
hibitions of our modern Christianity
that on this special Church festival,
the children are interested and made
happy by little tokens of affectionate
remembrance and regard. Of all the
days of the year Christmas is pro-emi-
nently the one when man to man, as
brothers should be, when the needs of
no sorrowing son or daughter of earth,
should be forgotten or unsupplied,.. but
when, “whatsoever ye would that men

should do unto you ‘doye even so unto _

them!” Thus living, and thus serving
it edivine Master, may we be sure of
enjoying another “Merry Christmas.”

Cheaper Telephone Service.

The decision of Judge Carpenter, of
the United States Circuit Court, sitting
at Boston, annulling the Berliner tele-
phone patent will if sustained by the
United States Circuit Court of Appeals
put an end to all telephone monopoly
in this country and put all telephone
manufacturers and corporationson an
equal footing. Unless special privi-
legesare granted to existing or new tele-
phone companies by municipal ordi-
nances telephone service hereafter will
be open to competition and will be
furnished at a- fair margin of profit
upon the capital actually employed.
The enormous royalties heretofore ac-
cruing to the owners of exclusive tele-
phone patents wil[ cease.

The decision will prove Of great ad-
vantage to those to whom the telephone
has became a daily necessity. The in-
strument has become one of the con.
veniences of modern life which cannot
be dispensed with, but heretofore it
has been so costly that thousands who
would have been glad to avail them-
selves of it could not afford the ex
pense. Open competition in telephone
service will quickly double and proba-
bly treble the number in use, and if
the profits are more moderate than for-
merly the convenience to the public
will be greatly increased.

An Examiner Who Examines.

The cashier of the Central National
Bank, of Rome, N. Y., has gone wrong,
and the bank is short $27,000. V The de-
faulting cashier dealt in stocks, got on
the wrong side of the market, and all
the rest of the oft-repeated tale. The
unusual feature of the Reme defalca-
tion is that Bank Examiner, J. Van
Vranken, suspected something was
wrong before thebank was entirely loot-
ed, and by coming back to look further
into the matter when he wasn’t expect-
ed varlfied his suspicions.

The cashier’s deal in stocks with the
bank’s money is not to be commended,
but the Bank Examiner’s diligence in
hunting for and discovering the short-
age while there was some money left in
the bank is, and if other Bank Exami-
ners will imitate his methods it will be
worth money to others and stockhold-
ers. Examiner Van Vranken seems to
be an examiner who examines.

income Tax.

The great and decisive reason against
the enactment of the income tax in the
Wilson Tariff bill is contained in the
first article and second section of the
Constitution of the United States :

“Representative and direct taxes
shall be apportioned among the several
States, which may be included within
this Union, according to their respect-
ive numbers.” . ~ '

The income tax, being a direct tax,
is in flagrant violation of this provision
of the fundamental lain—N. Y. Sun.

“THE Sin: CRACKE
Burglars Visit TheBoston Store
Early this Morning.

The Safe Ruined and But Little
Money Found.

 

The Norwalk Boston Store received
a visit gem burglars, at an early hour
this mornicg, ‘who were presumably
members of the gang who have been
operating in this section for several
weeks. ' -

Early this morning. Mr. P. F. Burns
of the firm went to the store before
leaving for New York. This was be-
tween five and six o’clock. He went
to the business office of the store which
is located in the south-eastern part of
the building on the second floor, and
facing on Wall street. He found that
the safe had been blown open, and
rifled. Without waiting to investigate“
he went into Wardwell’s market and
asked where he could find a policeman,
and seen after dispatched a man to the
home Of Capt. Wallace Dann, who had
retired for his usual morning’s rest.
Mr. Dann hastily dressed and went to
the stere.

In the meantime Mr. P. F. Master-
son, another of the firm, was summoned
and a thorough investigation was.» made.
Mr. Dunn in his search was not long in
finding out that the burglars had come‘
through the vacant lot on High street
in the rear of the store, scaled a fence

the store without being disturbed. It

Screen and a GAZETTE reporter, from
the investigation and search made that
one of the burglars used a ladder which
they placed against a window at the
back of the store and with little trouble
opened the same, and gaining an en-
trance Opened a door close to the win-
dow, permitting his confederate or con-
federates coming into the store.

They then repaired to ”the office and
undisturbed drilled a hole in the safe,
and inserted enough powder to blow
the safe-door open. The outside por-
tion of the door was not torn from the
hinges, but - was separated from the
inner lining and the fire-proof filling
between the two thrown on the floor.
A lambrequin used for deadening the
sound of the explosion was found burn-
ing, but fortunately the fire did not
communicate with other inflamable
material near by.

In the search a can of powder with
but a small portion of its contents gene,
was found under a shed at the Malkin
carpenter shop on High street. In the
office where the safe was blown open a
steel jimmy about three feet long with
a chisel edge was found, also an empty
bottle which had contained oil, a half-
pint bottle with about a teaspoont‘ul of
powder, a brace (comparatively new)
and three bits or augurs, a small fun-
nel probably used in pouring the pow-
der into the hole cut in the safe door,
and a short piece of fuse.

The papers that were in the safe were
scattered about the floor but so far as
is known none were stolen. The
amount of money taken was not, as a
member of the firm says, in excess of
$100, and consisted of the small denom-
inations of silver and kept to be used in
making change. The proprietors had
made an arrangement with their bank
by which they deposited the receipts of

not posted on else they would probably
have confined their operations to a
more lucrative safe than this one
proved to be. Oddly enough, they
took none of the valuable goods that
they might have helped themselves to.

door their steps being easily traced by
the imprints left by their feet from
stepping in the lime-like substance of
which the safe door was lined. They
rescaled the fence With the aid of the
ladder and on the opposite side an ash
barrel assisted in their getting to the
ground.

Chief Dann says that shortly after 1
o’clock, this morning, he saw a double
team hitched to a coach go through Wall
street and up High street, and now in-
clines to the belief that the burglars
were in this vehicle. He also says that
he went off duty at 3 o’clock, Officer
Kenney at 2 o’clock and Officer Bart-
ram at 5 o’clock.

Samuel Malkin who lives on Main
street, it is understood, heard u noise
as if of an explosion at 5:15 o’clock this
morning, and now thinks that it was
from the (xplosion of the safe.‘ Mr.
John Malone who lives on Wall street.
opposite "the Street Railway depot, is
positive thathe was awakened b, the
neise of an explosion at 3:30 o’clock,
and getting out of bed looked out of
his Window, but seeing nothing unusu-
al again retired. His wife he says was
also awakened by the noise.

NO clue has yet been obtained as to
who the burglars are, but Chief Brad-
ley is hard at work on the case and

them.

Reilef for Rheumatism.

“This information,” said a well known
ph sician to a correspondent of the.
Telegram, ”may save many lives; at
any rate it will prove an invaluable
boon-to people suffering from rheuma-
tism in any form," .

“Rheumatism is caused by acidity of
the blood. It should never be neglect-
ed. This remedy, as I know by long
practice, is very eflicacious and it is as
sim 16 as it is powerful.

“liere it is” he added, .“When a
rheumatic twinge is experienced, the
patient should buy a bottle of Dr.
David Kennedy’s Favorite Remedy
and take one teaspoonful in milk or
' water to suit the action Of the bowels,
three timesa day, and continue daily
until the last wastage of the malady has
disappeared. That’s all, but if taken
as I have prescribed, it will save
many doctors’ bills, to say nothing of

known if to fail.”-—Albany, N. Y., Tele~

Amusements. '

uovr’s OPERA HOUSE.

James B. Mackie, the popular come-
dian who is known throughout the
ecuntry as a most careful exponent of
typical character roles, will produce
this season an entirely new curio-ciico
comedy from the pen, of Geo. C. Jenks,
Esq, entitled “The Side Show, or Wait
for the Wagon.” Mr. Mackie will
appear as “Grimesey,” and as this
character is an elaboration of “Girmes-
ey, Me Boy”in “A Bunch of Keys,”
and “Billy Grimes” in “Grimes’ Cellar
Door,” it will give Mr. Mackie more
scope to display his remarkable versa-
tility. He will appear at‘Hoyt’s Opera
House, next Friday evening. ,.

NORWADK OPERA HOUSE. ‘

The-many admirers of Archie Boyd
in the “Old Homestead," will give him
a warm welcome in his new play, “The
Country Squire,” said to be as good,
pure and enjoyable as any play of rural
life ever written. The tale is alive
with interest ; the plot is well knit and
clearly deveIOped ; the dialogue is
varied and full of animation ; the char-
acters are drawn as they should be
drawn in drama, in the rough by point,
touch and turn of speech, by flash of
thought, passion and incident; the
actor is guided without being cramped
in his effort to make live in the flesh,
what the author has indicated rather
than portrayed in the lines. The com-
pany will appear at the Opera House,
Wednesday evening.

NOBWALK OPERA Honsr.

At the Norwalk Opera House “Sla-
very Days’3 is underlined for Janu-
ary 22, 23 and 24, and a special la-
dies’ matinee 24th and as most of
the “Slavery. Days” company were
with the famous “South Before the
War” company last season, a grand
performance can be relied upon.

The features are the troupe of buck
and wing dancers, two quartets, one
octet, and a score or more of genuine
