A petition has been resting peacefully in
'tho bosom of the city council for nearly : i
year past , asking for the placing of an arc
light at the corncivof Broadway and Pearl
streets , but no action has been taken about
it , notwithstanding the fact that the com
mittee on lights , to which it was referred ,
reported favorably. The people who have
to travel in the vicinity of the corner are
wondering what has become of the petition ,
and in the. meantime arc walking by faith.
Tlio Congregational Sunday school hud an
entertainment last evening at thu church.
The building was crowded with the pupils
mid their friends and a pleasing cantata was

been prepared. At the Presbyterian church
a similar entertainment was given , all but

tcrided and very interesting' .

ho would bo expected to make the presenta
tion speech to Captain Maltby , but he had
no Idea that he too wns to bo victimized.
When Onicer Watt stepped forward and 1
opened the ball by giving him the cane that
the hoys had bought , the chief's ' little speech
to the captain was knocked out of his head ,
The captain got his cano by default.
A number of accidents have- been caused
recently by boys who coast down the various
hills throughout the city , and considering ;
the carelessness they display , the only won
dcr is that they do not occur more fro
fluently. There has been hardly a daj
lately that some serious runaway lias no' '
been caused by horses taking fright at tin
passing sleds. H Is likely that some actiot
will bo taken by the city authorities in tin
near future to prevent these accidents in tin
future by setting apart ono or possibly twi
streets upon which coasting shall ho allowcc
ami prohibiting the pastime on all othe :
streets in the city limits.

J. 1J. Daniels , who has been carefully
avoiding all ofllccrs of Iho law for several
months past , was run In yesterday morning
and now occupies a cell In Hie county Jail ,
where lie will probably stny for some time
yet. Daniels has been In the employ of a
medical Institute In this city as n traveling
agent , and In that capacity had had a hard
row of stump * to navigate , being frequent
ly arrested on charges of obtaining money
utiilcr false pretenses preferred against
him by patients who thought they had not
received the worth of their money. A fcxv
months ngo ho was arrested at Txigan , Harrison
risen county , on a charge of this kind. His
brother was arrested nt the sumo time and
Is now serving a term of eighteen months In
tlio penitentiary. .1. B. succeeded in getting
out on bail by putting up * 00 in cash in a
Logan bank , whereupon the bank signed his
bail. After he hud made good his escape
from the city , however , it was discovered
that the bond wan worthies1 ? , as be had not
signed It himself as principal. When ar
rested yesterday the charge of being a fugi
tive from Justice was placed opposite his
name on the police register.
Another charge has sini'o been made
against him. It seems that last summer IIP
was summoned ns a witness In the case of
Wheeler against Ucndon , xvhlch was on trial
In the district court , lie failed to show up
and .Iiulgo Dccmer Issued a ben-h warrant
for him. Yesterday a deputy sheriff called
ut the city jail and tools him In custody on
the bench warrant. He will liavo to dispose
of this cuso before ho is given up to the Harrison
risen county onielals.

But the little prince had stopped

It was the day before Christmas nnd
the little prince's eyes had boon grow ,
intr In1 K01' " 11 lno afternoon. The store
windows wore BO full of wonders and he
ao full of babyiiwo nnd mlinirution. He
had not learned to weary of it nil , tc
dread the rushitu ; crowds , and to thinli
bitter thoughts about money nnd the
sweet thintjH ho would like to.do. He
almnly wanted everything ho eivw , ant
when ho found ho could not luu-o it he
just forgot the want in eomo now won

Ho stood holding his mamma fuel
while the hurrying people jostled tlion

"On , see jess see ! " ho cried

Ills eyes were two round wishes.
"Oh , precious , " she answered , tryin {
to push un. "Mamma couldn't buy nn

Still ho hung back , his lip quivoriiij

"All right , don , " ho answered , am

Of course , the tAilor was very sorry
of course , it was fi mistake. Of course ,
it never would liavo happened , except
for the Christmas rush , and of course it
could not possibly bo changed that day.
Of course , she would have to glvo it to
her husband ns it was and liavo it
altered afterwards. "
"Of course , you will niter it today an
have it ready , ns yon promised , or , of
course , I will not take it at all , " slio
answered , borrowing his own expression
in rather n saucy way.
The tailor looked at her determined
face nnd changed his tone. They could
change it nnd finish it thai duy , ho ad

could not promise to do.iver . the gar

Hert's lltto ! wife detested carrying

So she and Iho little prlnuo had wan
dered from store to store all the after
noon until now , with the (11-088111 ? gown

Il was close upon dinner lime. The

his tired llttlo mamma whenever slio
glanced his way. Ho knew she could
nol ho'il him with thai bulky bundle In

going lo keen it , too.
Dear little prince ! Thai wns nol his

and Borl wau lirod , or ho never would
liavo noticed when Iho litllo prince in-
sstcd ! on his hhving his place at the
lablo moved from iho end a omul to
"mamma's side. " As it was ho looked
annoyed , though he said nothing.
The liltlo prince was hard to plcaso
thai ovouing. Ho could nol eal bread
Ihui mamma had prepared because ho
"wanted to butter it himself. " ilo
threw u spoon across the lablo because
11 happened nol lo bo Iho ono marked
with his naino , and succeeded alto
gether , in proving that hib day's work
had been far too heavy for his baby
strength.
Bert was silent for the first ten min
utes. Then , "My dear , " hosaid , and his
little wife know instanlly thrl what ho
meaiil to say would not bo pleasant.
"Do you "thinkho went on with a
sinilo that was only a half smile , "that
jou are giving mo ii fequaro deal in this
" '
mutter ;
"I don't know what you mean , " she
said , constrainedly.
"Beg pardon , but I think you do. As
many times as I huvo told you how I
enjoy our quiet dinners when wo
two are alone and as easy as it is for yon
to have that boy asleep before this time ,
it scorns to mo that your keeping him
up to lurnthe whole meal topsy turvy ,
is not exactly doing as you would bo
done bv , lo sny Iho leasl. "
"But , Bert" the began to speak nnd
stopped. If she could tell him how she
and the little prince spent thodiiy how
sadly they hud tired themselves , and
all for him ho would forgive them on
the instant , she was sure. But Iho idea
of divulging a Christmas secret before
the proper moment wns nol to bo con
sidered. So she waited.
"It would be different. " ho resumed ,
'
"if you had anything in'tho world to do
except care for the boy. But you have
told mo repeatedly "your Christmas
wor'c was all done days ago , and you
hud only to be lusty" from now on ,
and I tell you when a man comes
'
home ns tired'as I am . ; l
"Other people besides men gel tired
sometimes , too , " eho interposed. "You
may not know what I've been doing , but
I huvo had a very busy day , and as for
the baby , he's us tired as you are , every
bill"
"Then why isn't ho in bed whore ho
ought to be ? You know very well "
"Say , papa ! " suddenly cried the sub
ject of contonlion in a voice of high ex
citement , "I hanged my stockin' up
ever since early dis mornin' nn' I know
soinesing ! I know Santa Claus is jess n
joke an' its truly you an' mamma dat
put in presents anil sings after I'm gone
to sleep. I foun' dat out tin' I know it.
tool"
"Yes , my son ! " said Bert , in a voice
us low us lie could make it. "Did you
think your papa was deaf ? I am nol. ]
can hear quite na well as over. " Then
to the litllo niolhor , "Where , I'dliko.tc
know , did IIG got tlio habit of shouting
ing in that style ? Do you over stop hiir
and toll him to speak softly , or do yet
Int him go on thai way all day long ? "
"I don'l like your manner , Borl , " she
said indignantly.
"It's hadn't found that
a pity you ou
Bomo yearsugo , " he said , dryly.
"I don't cnro , " wailed the litlh
prince , as the chill of thoiitniosphen
struck his tender heart. ' ! don't lik <
pupa , an' I sink bo's bat1 "
"IIiiHh , darling , hush ! " said mamma
'Oh , nol" said Burl. "Lei him spenl
liis mind. Don'l make him a hypocrili
with all his other faults. "
"I don't I don't ! " the child went on
"I wls' I didn't hnVo him he's so bad1 !
Ills Fobs grow louder with every breath
"
" " "inummu
"Llttlo Prince , whispered
"You will have ttj go away unless yoi
stop. Mamma cun't lot you stay and cr ;
like this. " .
"Call Bridget imd lot her take bin
and put him lo bad , " Borl proposei
sharply.
No no no ! " Urlokod Iho child. "
won'l ! I won't le , her ! Oh , you bad
bad impa ! "
"I always go with him , Bert , yo
know"said mamma.
"Well , it's tlinoJho learned to go wit !
some ono olso. " '
"Bort " hnr c'yps wcro pleading , b
he did nol meel them. "Borl , dour-
it's Christmas Eve. "
"Yes , and last Sunday il was Sunda
dinner that must not be spoiled by dh
elp.ining him ! Meantime , for the sak
of present peace , nro wo to lot our bo
grow up an ungoverned , t-auey good
for-iiolhlngV"
"You uro imroaBonablo ! " she in
swerod hotly , turning to the woepln
child once more and wiping tlio tout
from his llushou. oxcltod faco. "An ;
ono could bee that H would ho foolish t
o try nu Innovation at a limo lilco Ibis. "
e Still Iho llttlo prince could not I
sr quiet , and in a moment mamma rosotli
srU cidedly. "Come ! " she said.
8 No nol I want to stay to 'cert !
10 want to oh , I do ! "
10n The litllo mother found it hard onoug :
to lift the struMglinHcroumlng oo
lo out of the chair to which ho clung , nn
loh it was small wonder that during tl
s- operation one of his wildly Hying fei
s33 shot a glass ol water from the table
crnfih In plocos on the hnrdwood floor ,
llorl started it p.
"I shall punish him for that"ho stilil.
The Hiimll woman put her child bo-
hiniWior. Ilo clung to her , frightened
into pllonco by the sound of the break *
Inir glass ,
"You shall not oven touch him while
you are angry , " she cried.
"I shall punish my boy when I think
best ! "
"You shall never strlkomv babv while
1 llvo ! "
They faced each other Oollantly.
"Oh , very well , " Said Bert , after a
pmiso. "Go on jro on. You're doing
bravely. I lultnlru vour method. Tench
him to scream for wluit ho wauls until
ho gets it , anil then to call his father
names nnd say ho hales him. By and by ,
when ho gets big enough to knock mo
down you'll fool your work is done , won't
youV It's wonderful your method ! 1
should think you would want lo in-
slrucl a class a mothers class why
don'l you ? "
11 was lee much. She covered her
face with her htinds
"Oh , " she sobbed : "You cruel , sar
castic , heartless thing ! How my
brother would halo you If ho could hour
you lull : to mo like that ! Oh , I can't
boar ill On Christmas Kvel Oil , it's
dreadful ! I won'l slay with you ! I'll
take Iho baby anil go somewhere any
where away from hero ! I never c.ui
slay , t wunl to go homo , whore they
love mo , nnd I will ! "
Bert Irled to look ludilTorent , during
Ihls outburst lie shrugged his should
ers and , strolling buck to his place at
the table , hu helped himself to an ollvo
which ho did not want. Ho pretended
not lo nollco when Iho door closed be
hind the litllo prince and his mtuanm
oil Ihelr way upstairs.
Tired men are sorry , sometimes , after
dinner.
Bert siolo silently up the stairs and
stood oaves-drooping nt the door of llio
room where the litllo prince wus being
put to bod.
"But I can't love him , can IV" ho
hoard in a baby voice , still broken with
sobs
"Why , sweetheart , of course you loyo
your own dear papa. "
"You don't love him do you , mam-
mn't"
"Oh , yes , yes , yos. I ilo , I do ! " There
wore tears with Hie admission , and Borl
found some in his own eyes nl Iho same
Instant.
"Well , don , 1 will , if you do ! " was the
answer.
"And now , darling , toll mamma you
are sorry for Hying into such a rage and
saying and doing all these naugiity
things. "
"I can't , mamma ; I can't , 'thout I toll
lies. It don't come into my heart to
fool sorry not a bit ! "
Then iho lender voice replied anil
\\ont on and on so softly that Bert could
nol hear Iho words. Ilo guosssd thai
she was praying with Iho liltlo culprit.
Suddenly ho hoard : "It's como it's
here ! Oh , mamma , it came right into
my heart , and oh , 1 fuel so sorry ! I do
I inn 1 didn'l oughl to say dose words
nn' . inoro'n ever , I didn't ought lo kick
dal glass , an'oh I never never never
will utrainl"
A silence followed. Bert , know lhal
they were locked in ono another's arms.
After some time the little prince said :
"Mamma ! " "Yes , darling. "
"I'm so sorry I kicked dal way ! "
the words had a drowsy drag. " 1 sink
I must have forgottod glass would
break ! "
Bert lislened after thai until ho henrd
the lilllo mother rise up from the bed
side of the sleeping child and como
softly toward the door. She started , as
she came upon him , standing there , but
ho did nol give her time to turn away.
"Sweetheart ! ' ' he took her face in
both his hands "I didn't ought to say
dose words , and oh , I never-never
never will again ! ' "
There wore hot tears upon her lushes ,
but her head wont down upon his
shoulder and ho held her close.
"Dourest , sweetesl little wife , " ho
whispered. "I am sorry oh , so sorry !
I think I must have forgotted class
would break ! "
And then , although her face was
pressed against his coat , lip know , aoino-
how or other , thai she smiled.
