Chief C. D. Walters , of the ilro depart
ment , wns most agreeably surprised yester
day innrintiK by the moil in his charge , who
presented linn with nn elegant gold watch.
The affair was very neatly managed by the
fire laddies. The big boll on the central sta
tion was cut out from the circuit , nnd an
alarm turned in from house No. 4 , on Upper
Broadway. That brought the entire depart
ment , including Chief Walters , to the spot in
short order. On arriving there the chief
was invited to step forward , nnd Mr. J. n.
Dietrich presented the watehwlth appropriate
remarks. The recipient was completely sur
prised , but imitintrecl to express his thanks
for the honor done him as well as for the
handsome token of esteem. The greatest
surprise , however , was yet to coine. .As
eoon as ho had presented Chief Walters with
his watch , Mr. Dietrich turned to Assistant
Chief Nicholson nnd presented him with n
line silver watch. The assistant was too as
tonished to reply. Ho had been nctlvo in per
fecting the arrangements for the Ilrst pre
sentation , nnd when ho was called up was
too utterly astounded to speak. The affair
didnot require much time , and passed off
very pleasantly.

How flic lnyVnn Celebrated.
Christmas iloy in tlio IJltifTs passed as
others have done in p.ist j'cnra , very quietly
and yet joyously. Upon every corr.cr was
heard the fnmtliur jtrcetitiK , "A Mcrr ;
ChristmaV n * frirnd exhibited to fricni
the plft whtoli Simla Clans had brought him
UnrlnR the c.irly hours of the day a feu
stores were oponr-d to deliver purchase * of
the day before , but tlioro was no attempt to
"do business. " Tlioro were numberless re
unions , and families broken by removals mid
marriages were untliorcJ once more , with
out the loss of one , nround the family board.
At many tables there were vacant chairs ,
and as the Invocation for the blessliiR oi
heaven was raised many nn cyo was dlmtnci
and hearts grew sad. Hut they are the
changes the years bring to all the record of
human life.
At St. Paul's. In some of the churches
religious services were hold. That at St.
Paul's Kpiscopid church was most appropri
ate and onloviitito. At 10:31 : a. tn. , the rec
tor , Hov. T.J. Muehiiy , delivered an excel
lent discourse. The musical exercises were
excellent. The following programme was
rendered :

This Christmas celebration will be con
cluded Friday evening , at which time the
Sunday school and church qunrtcttc will
render tlio pleasing Christum * cantata , "St.
Nicholas. " Tlio work has been in good
hands , is well rehearsed , neil will prove an
enjoyable entertainment.
First llaptlsti Church Last evening the
children and adult members of the First
Haptist Sunday school and church gathered
In their edifice. There was little attempt nt
formallty.no regular programme of exercises
having hcun prepared. H was a merry crowd
and with songs and short speeches the hours
passed most pleasantly. There was an old
fashioned Christinas tree , loaded to the top
with beautiful gifts for the children , and a
genuine live Santa Claus. Every child re
ceived a present at Santa's hands.
A pleasing feature was the voluntary
giving to the poor. Many articles which will
make the worthy poor more comfortable and
happier , wore brought topcthcr by those who
came. To day these articles will bo placed
where they will do the most pood.
Hethany Haptist Chnrch At the same time
there was a joyous gathering at the Hethany
Haptist church. The scholars of the Sunday
school gathered and spent a season in healthy
enjoyments furnished by the teachers and
adult members. The Christinas tree with its
fruitage of wealth for the boys and girls , was
there. In the good cheer exhibited there
was that which promises much for the future
of this young and rapidly growing church.
Mites From the Motor. Thetnotor line did
a latul ofllco business. During the forenoon
tlio rush was from Omaha to Council Hlufi's.
Every tram was packed to its limit. Most , of
these persons spent the day with friends
here. It was not altogether n one-sided ar
rangement , however , for many Uiuffitcs ate
their turkey with their Omaha frientts , the
motertlolng.by far the larger share of the
carrying business. A good service was ren
dered , trips being made in about twenty five
minutes. Ucyond the sneak thieving nar
rated elsewhere , there were no accidents or
incidents worthy of special note. '
The switch at tlio west end of the bridge is
nearly completcO. Two more cars have ar
rived and in four or five days a ten-minuto
service will Uo put on. The cars are well
heated and the trip is made a most conforta-
blo one.
The hotels were well patronized , although
many regular quests accepted invitations to
dine with private families , somewhat dimin
ishing the number that would otherwise have
filled the dining halls/ Still there wore
plenty to do justice to the splendid Christ
mas banquets spread at the princinal hostler-
ies. The saloons did a rushing business dur
ing the entire day and evening , vicmcf with
the motor in securing u monopoly of the busi
ness. Disturbances were scarce , as the po
lice were on the alert , and promptly looked
up all drunks and too hilarious parlies.
Notice the beautiful finish given col
lars , cuffs und shirts by Cascade Laun
dry company.

Santa at the Inntitutlon.
Santa Clans has some very heavy worU for
Christmas , but docs it Joyfully. Among his
greatest ami happiest was the caring for the
pupils of the institution for the deaf and
ilumb. The family is of goodly size , there
being 275 pupils and about fifty oftlcers ,
teachers and employes. To core for every
member of this great fair.lly , and make the
day n happy one In every detail , Is enough to
malic the head dizzy , Santa had able assist
ants , however , Superintendent Ilothcrt prov
ing to be a host within himself , and his wor
thy wife , the matron , being equally active In
her department. Tito children spent Christ
mas eve very Joyously. The chupol was very
handsomely decorated , festooned with green ,
nnd glittering with holiday baubles. In the
center stood as beautiful a Christmas tree as
was over seen. It was fully twenty feet
high , nnd adorned elaborately. When lighted
and surrounded by the happy faces it , was , a
picture Indeed.
The early part of the evening was devoted
to nn entertainment on the stage. The reci
tations wore In the sign language. A very
amusing hat drill was given wellby six boys.
Tableaux were given with charming effect.
A scries of comical shadow pictures closed
the programme with great merriment.
n'J'lio rest of the evening was given to re
freshments unit social enjoyment. The pupils
received bags of popcorn , nuts , candies and
fruits. Those wore put up in attractive und
hoifntlful packages. There was dancing ,
strangely enough without music , nn orches
tra for them being needless. It is surpris
ing , however , how gracefully they can
dance , keeping cxenllunt time , and going
through all the usual llguros and steps.
Yesterday morning there was nn oven
liapptar time , The pupils were seated in the
chapel , while Prof. Wyckoff gave them a
Christmas tulle. In the meantime the boxes
nnd parcels received from friends were dis-
[ rjHuted through the various rooms. To
tkifst ) tvero iMjded numerous gifts by the In
stitution , soffld Oi LUP PUPilf' ' "Ot having
friends nulo to send tlictil em. After the
close or the exorcises in the chapel tiiS pupils
went to their rooms , and each found uponlii
or her bed the elf ts. A happier scene could
not bo Imagined , livery pupil received some
gifts.
gifts.A Christmas dinner was served. Some
idea may be gained of the work of prepara
tion by the fact that over seventy turkffye
were rooked. It took u whole barrel of cran
berries far the sauce , and to make the mluco
pics 110 ! pounds of meat was required.
Following this came a series of surprises
for Superintendent II. W. Hothert nnd nib
cutlmuulo wlfu , Tbe teachers raiding at
the Institution presented 'them with h beau
tlful silk umbrella. The .ofllcors nnd em
ployes came in with n full china dinner set
and the domestics in the various department
with si large group photograph of themselves
The gifts presented showed the esteem n
which the superintendent , otl'l ' matron nrc
held by all who meet them in dally contact
They wcro nil received with the highest ex
pressioni of appreciation nnd regard.
Superintendent IJothcrt Is a strong com
binatlon of executive ability and big
licarlcdnoM. The arrangements for malting
the children happy clearly indicate this
It is no easy task to receive so many hundred
packages nnd parcels , sec that each one Is
properly delivered , notify the friends send
ing them that they have been received nil
right , planning that they shall be nil dis
tributed at the sumo time , nnd perfecting
every detail for so huge a Christmas gath
ering. For those friendless ones gifts had
to bo selected , or mado. so that none might
be slighted. The merchants of the city gen
erously donated some articles nnd many
others wcro provided by Mrs. Ilothcrt mill
the various departments.
The trustees of the Institution authorize ) !
Mr. Uothcrt to select for them suitable gifts
for the school. Ho wisely secured some
Indian clubs , dumb bells and inno''cnt games ,
chcs * . checkers , etc. These arc given to the
school ns a whole to bo used in the gymna
sium and playrooms.
There have been crent changes wrought in
and about the institution of late. The elec
tric plant is one of the greatest. There are
four hundred Incandescent lights so.iU.orod
through the buildings , so that there is not n
dnrlc corner or nook. When lighted at night
It looks like a fairy city. The superintend
ent tins had It so arranged that by a simple
turn of the wrist lie can give signals by
these lights In any und all parts of the build
ing , lie can tell the children to make less
noise , go to bed , warn them of a lire , or give
them any noudcd information In accordance
with a prearranged code of signals. As they
depend upon the eye , rather than the car ,
this Clectric signal arrangement Is very val
uable.
The heating nnd ventilation are as per
fectly arranged as the lighting. f.Iuagps in the
& porintcmlenl'a oflleo indicate even the cou
rt..km of the great boilers , and he can see for
himself that the rooms are not allowed to
get either too cold or too warm.
For tire protection there are escapes and
hose for every part of the building. Watch
men are on duty all night , seeing that the
temperature is kept suitable , and that no ac
cidents occur. With commendable thoughtfulness -
fulness the custom of having a man watch
man for the girls'part of tlio building hus
been changed , anil n viomun watchman is
placed on the lookout there.
A passenger elevator is now running ,
though not fully completed. It Is the only
institution for the deaf nnd ilumb thus fav
ored , it is run by water , and every contri
vance is being used to prevent till possibility
of accident.
The water supply Is now nbundant andcon-
viently arranged. The artesian well for a
year furnished the water , sending it to the
topmost story , but it was found that , the
supply needed some change , so a reservoir
has been built , and a pump of large capacity
now forces the water. Hot and cold water ,
closets , bathrooms , and nil needed comforts
for the pupils are conveniently arranged , so
that the sanitary conditions are almost per
fect. As a result a healthier , cleaner gather
ing of children can be found nowhere.
The health of the institution is furthered
by the food. The storerooms , bakery , kitchen
and dining-room are all so conducted as to
tend to the welfare of the children. All are
scrupulously clean. In such rooms as need
it cement floors and wainscots have been put
in , doing away with all possibility for rats
and mice , and drains und ventilation arc kept
so clean that no unsavory odors can creep in.
One of the greatest of the late improve
ments is that in the hospital department.
The HfUi Jloor , which was simply aji attic ,
bus boon transformed into one oi the most
complete hospitals to bo found anywhere.
Tlio various wards are made very attractive ,
the views from the windows being lovely ,
the rooms lijiht and airy , supplied wita hot
and cold water , closets , bath-rooms , etc.
The nurse has conveniences in a separate
room for proparintr delicacies. The ph.vsicaii
has his room with all needed appliances at
hand. One ward is called a preparatory
room , where a sick onp can , ba
cared for if there are any indications of any
contagious disease. When these are devel
oped sufficiently to determine , the nntlcnt
can bo easily removed to the contagious
ward , or to one of the others. Tim conta
gious ward is so arranged that no infection
can possibly enter another part of the build
ing. Hy speaking tubes and other contriv
ances easy communication can be had with
other parts of the building , and without any
danger of contagion. The health of the pn-
| iils is evidently good , for the hospital de
partment is empty , not , one being even in the
convalescent ward.
A viiilt to the institution and a mingling
with the children reveals a very happy state
of affairs. The avowed policy of the present
management is that the institution is for the
pupils , rather than for the officers and em
ployes. In every arrangement there is
evinced n desire to make these people hap
pier and better. They are taught table man
ners , and the tin cups and battered plates
common to reformatory institutions are re
placed by the crockery more in keeping with
> uch nn educational institution. The pupils
iinvo their meals served iirst. la fact , they
ire ilrst in everything. This was pleasingly
llustrated in the distribution of fruits and
candles. The smaller ones wcro the first to
receive their bags , and the older and larger
ones , who could bettor brook a little delay ,
cumo afterwards. The pupils show in
, heir mien nnd appearance that they
feel that they have a home , und are nt home
n it. Their individuality is also respected.
They are not numbered simply , ns though
they were branded cattle , but cuch hus his or
icr peculiar wants nnd wishes considered.
Their clothing , their beds , their places at the
Lablo , their personal property , is treated as
really theirs to have and control , under such
general regulations as are of course necessary
n such a largo household.
Prof. Wyckoff , who has charge of the edu
cational department , is keeping that fully
ibreast of the others. The course of intel
lectual training is thorough nnd successful.
In the art department there Is good work
joing done also , as the numerous pictures
upon the walls throughout the institution
: estlfy , they being all the work of pupils.
I'lio industrial departments are giving the
pupils practical training , a portion of each
day bciner devoted to these. Iowa can well
feel proud of its Institution. Its legislators
should not DO niggardly in making appropria
tions to further the efficiency of the institu
tion. There are numerous needs , and the ex
penditures made by the trustees show that
the money of the people is not being used for
more luxuries , but for the bettering und the
education of the pupils themselves.
