The hospitals contributed their ibare o
tl'c festivities which mork the advent ot
' . lirls'.mas , many of them with Christmas
tree * , ami all with the exchange of presents
a nil other tokens commemorative of the oc-
"Aislon. The ( > alllil faces of patients confined
to their couches were caused to nmllc In hap
piness at the remombranev ot friends In the
busy world outside , and who did not think It
amlts to cheer those who were not blessed
with good health llko themselves.
Chrlstmaa at St. Joseph's hospital was
marked with the visits ot nn unusual number
ot cullers who had friends or relatives con-
Itaod there and the bread halls and cheerful
rooms l > ere the Impress ot their presence with
a. protuMc' ! of flowery decorations , which
brought with them a breath of fresh alp-'from
the bustling world. An nxccllcnt dinner was
served at noon yesterday ntid presents were
distributed between the nurses and patients
with a prodigal hand. Special Christmas
tervlccs were held at noc by Ft" . Jancttp ,
and also at C o'clock. In the evening a
Christmas tree laden with strings of pop
corn and presents , was reared In one of the
largo dormitories for the children and Mr.

At the Swedish hospital elaborate prepara
tions were made for the celebration of the
Yuletlde. Friday afternoon from 3 until 5
o'clock were festivities , In which all parti
cipated. A Christmas tree \\as placed In one
of the largo rooms , and when the IH.TSCS and

FOR AFFLICTED CHILDREN.
The Clarkson hospital observed Christmas
with the usual Christmas tree Friday after
noon. Dean Fair delivered n fatherly address
to the unfortunate boys and girls who find
a comfortable home In this splendid Institu
tion and-tho festivities were further enhanced
with songs by Miss Gertrude Kountze and
violin selections by Miss Helen Mlllard. Upon
the completion of the program the heavily
laden tree was despoiled of Its treasures and
given to tno little patients. Many of the
presents were the donations of the Children
of the King of Trinity cathedral.
At the Methodist hospital many presents
were given to the patients and others were
given freely between the nurses and their
charges. Matron Pfrlmmer reported that the
Sifts both of money ; and other articles from
the city and country were both numerous
and handsome. Among those worthy of men
tion was a present to the hospital by one of
the surgeons of Its staff of ten Iron beds ,
ten invalid stands and tea tables. The hospital
has at present over thirty patients and these
were all regaled yesterday afternoon with a
dinner of unusual excellence.
A most fiulet Christmas was celebrated at
the Presbyterian hospital. Although this In
stitution Is practically used as the emer
gency hospital ot the city , there was little
romembcrnnco manifested by either the city
officials or private Individuals for the efforts
put forth In the .last year by a most efficient
corps of nurses. Presents ivcro exchanged
between the patients and friends and. a few
to the nurses , but there was little to break
the monotony of the day with the exception
Of a good dinner.
In addition to the Christmas tree festivities
held at the county hospital Friday
night , gifts of handkerchiefs and
other articles were distributed among
the women yesterday morning , to
gether with cigars and tobacco to the

ltd Dinner lo the Poor Millie 11 MOK |
\odilile Oci-unlou.
The Salvation Army extended a bounty to
the poor yesterday which was planned and
executed upon a magnitude second to none In
the city. For nearly a month past Enslj < n
Carter , together with his aids , has been busily
engaged lnjollectng : ! material for the feast ,
and judging from the number who partook of
It the meal was a glorious success.
The pewi ot1 the barracks were covered
with beards , forming extenrpor'zed tables , and
when the white cloths were laid they were
laden with viand. ' ; until the tables groaned
beneath their burden of Christmas cheer.
Promptly at 12 o'clock the doors were thrown
open and the large crowd -which had already
collected began scrambling for places. As
soon as the fimt four tables had received their
complement Knslgn Carter , with Captain
Davy and Lieutenant Davy formally opened
the dinner with prayer and a short BODB serv
ice. From this time forward the hungry people
ple arrived In squads of a dozen , and as soon
as one place became vacant It was quickly
ccciolod by nncther. There wcro people
UICTO of all ages , both sexes , color and pre
vious condition of servitude. Ensign Carter
and the entire membership of the corps were
kept busy supplying the v.ants of their guests
for four ftour * , and at the expiration of that
tlmo It Is estimated that fully f > 00 persons
WCTO served. Among those who were ad
mitted by tlcketo were fifty given out by the
Associated Charities , fifty by the police force
and fifty from the county supply store.
Among the viands which formed the din
ner were turkeys , chickens , roast beef , ham ,
pickles , celery , jellies , with a desert of cake
and pie. The hearts of the little OHM were
made glad with bags of candy , ucncoHi and
and nuts , and In addition to this t'jo homes
of five destitute families were supplied with
provisions.
Ensign Carter expressed himself as under
obligations to the big picking houses of
South Omaha and to the merchants of Omaha
for the donations which made the dinner pos
sible , Nearly all the articles which rcado up
ihe spread wore cocked and prepared In a
kitchen In the rear of the barracks presided
over by members of the army ,

The pwtolllco was the goal of hundreds of
people yesterday morning. It was open to
the public only between the hours of 0 and
11 o'clock , but In all that time a long string
of people were lined up before the delivery
windows. Hundreds of Christmas packages
and bundles were handed out , but when the
windows -were finally closed fully 1,000 still
remained In tbo building.
The carriers also had a hard tlmo of It.
They made only one full delivery and that
was In the morning , nut In uplto of the
fact that they did not carry any of the bigger
packages. In the majority of cases they were
compelled to make two trips to cover tholr
routes fully and each tlmo their sacks were
packed as full na possible. Everything was
delivered , however , with the exception of the
big bundles that were uncalled for.
Anionir the IlotelN.
Christmas day was observed by all tbo
hotels In the city , both of high and low de
gree , In the usual way by greater or less
pretentious feasts. The most lavish meal of
the day wai the dinner , -whether served at
noon or In tbo evening. There was a fair
number of guests at all the 'hotels , but not
so great as on other boltdafi of the year , as
trusclcnt Invariably flock home to upend
the hollrt.iys , Their absence was not entirely
made up by the number of local people who
took their Christmas dinners at the holt- . ;
On all the bills of fare the alar parts were
'
played by turkey and the toothsome suckling
pig. Surrounding them were all sorts of
good UilngS and of Chrlstmis cheer , both In ,
solid and liquid form. In the tnorc Important
hostclrles more or less elaborate menu cir < M ,
wcro put beside the plaits. The pick of the ;
bunch was that at the Mlllard hotel. The !
card was handsomely cmbcusM and In one
corner was suspenJed n golden , tiny , tink
ling Christmas bell.
At the majority of the holds the dinner
w s served at noon. At the Mlllird It oc
curred In the evening , nnd the Murray had
both noon nnd evening dinners.
SrilVlCKS AT ST. .HMIV.S CATHOLIC.

lo Cniiiiiieiiiornti * tile liny.
St. John's Catholic church was prettily
J decorated In honor of the nativity of the
j Son of Man , the space within the chancel rail j
( being hung with festoons of evergreen and '
smllax , which relieved the harshness of the
bare white walls. The altar was bright with '
the green of smllax. nnd palms , relieved by '
roses and chrysanthemums. ( Mass was cele
brated nt 10:30 a. m. . Ihn rhnrrh hntntr writ '
filled with worshippers. Hcv. Father Muef-
fels was the celebrant and Haydn's beautiful | I
Second Mass formed the musical part of the
service. The solos In this were sung by Mrs. i
13. A. Cudahy and Mr. Harry Burkley , the
difficult bass solo being rendered by Mr. '
llurklcy with much feeling and expression , i i
The musical feature of the service was the '
ringing of .Mrs. Cudahy. Wlcgand's beauti
ful "Venl Creator" was Interpolated In the
mass , the solo for soprano being sung by
Mrs. Cudahy with most pleasing effect and
smoothness of execution. She also sang the
offertory , "Adeste Fldells , " using Novello's
arrangement. This beautiful composition
was rendered In an artistic manner.
The sermon -was dellveted by Rev , A. M.
nrnnger , who chose for his theme the na
tivity of Christ. He first explained the meanIng -
Ing of thn word Christmas , saying It was an
old English word meaning Christ mass. He
said the mass was the essence of the cele
bration of Christmas nnd without It the
celebration wns a hollow mockery. He as
serted that outside ot the Catholic church
Christmas was a myth a sham. He said the
name signifies n 'inass at which Is celebrated
the birth of Christ. It was formerly celc-
ibrated at the hour of 12. the hour when the
world believes the Savior was born , 1.S97
years ago. Christ now appears on the altar
In the Catholic churches not wrapped In the
swaddling clothes , but shrouded In the sacred
form of the bread nnd wine.
The preacher then explained the meaning
the church attaches to the -word "merry. "
He said It was a repetition of the gieetlng
of the nngcls to the shepherds of old and
signifies the joy which came to the hearts of
Joseph nnd JIary and which comes to the
heart of the true Christian who receives the
Christ. "When the shepherds went to see
their Lord they saw their God ; they saw not
humanity , 'but ' the word made flesli the Son
of God made flesh nnd dwelt among us. Thnt
Christmas Is repeated today on the altar of
the Catholic church ; the same God appears
on the altar symbolized by the bread and
wine. Think what the world would have
been If Christ had not come. What greater
gift than for God to give IHlmself ! Christ Is
God and Christ gives Himself to you In
this mass. Let your hearts Join this song
of pralfe ; let your hearts travel and join the
choir of heaven and ring out the glorious
hymn of Christmas. Rejoice , bo merry , for
this hour Is come to you a Savior , Christ
Jesus. " *
COAL FOR CIIKUHLI SS GIIATKS.

\Vnriiin Severn ! Home * .
The Associated Charities made many hearts
gladyesterdny by the liberal dlstrlbutlpn ol
coal. A small consignment of the long ex
pected supply In the shape of two carloads
of Sheridan coal arrived Friday afternoon
and Secretary Laughland at once set about
dUposlng of It. Christmas morning the
homes of thirty families were visited end
consignments varying from fifty to 103
pounds of coal were left In each place. Four'
cars more are expected shortly from Cam
bria , Wyo. , and their contests will probably
be distributed New Year's day.
In addition to the coil sect out a list ol
the names of twenty-five worthy families
was furnished by the Associated Charities tea
a number of promtaent Omaha women who
take Interest In charitable work , and1 each
of these homes was supplied with a Chrh't-
mas dlnmor. The baskets ot provisions were
mnde up at the homes of the givers and
distributed by them from their carriages.
Secretary Laughland is still engaged In get-
tln-g together a fund for the purchase of
more coal for the poor. Although much in
this direction has already teen done , there
Is a prospect for a most severe winter and
he estimates that It will take at least 200
tons more to tide the destitute over until
sprtag. He Is short about J250 and Is mak
ing nn earnest effort to collect this amount
among the businti. men of the city.
.Serrleex at All Sill lit * .
There was an exceptionally large week day
congregation at All Saint's church yesterday
morning and the day was'celebrated by a
very elaborate and Interesting service. The
church was handsomely decorated with green
and white. The panels back of the altar
wcro decked with holly and between them
wcro huge clusters of chrysanthemums.
Streamers of evergreen were hung over the
chancel and festoons of the same material
were nrtistieally draped around the body of
the church.
The services included a musical program
of exceptional merit , the quartet. "The nirth-
day of the King , " by .Xcidllnger , being es
pecially well rendered by Mrs. G. W. John
ston. Mrs. C. W. Morton , I. M. Guild and G.
W. Manchester. The Christmas sermon was
delivered by Rev. C. J. Walk of the Church
ot the Good Sheperd , who discussed the senti
ment of benevolence on applied , to the occa
sion. Ho said that Christinas was a time
for happiness , when all worldly cares should
bo put csldc. The rich should rcjolco In their
abundance and the poor should bless God for
His mercy. It was a tlmo for the widow to
forget her sorrow and the orphans their deso
lation. All bigotry and prejudice should lie
discarded nnd humility and benevolence
reign supreme. On this day we should bring
our chaplcts of holly and Ivy to decorate the
sepulchers of our blasted hopes and bitter
disappointments. We should let the dead pest
bury Its dead , while we hope that from the
ashes of the past shall spring higher and
nobler and holler lives.
The speaker declared that Christmas was
eminently a day of benevolence. The facul
ties with which the Creator Tiad endowed
humanity and the opportunities of enjoyment
tint Ho hid spread around us were monuments
ments to Ills bencvolenco and love. This was
crystallzed Into n substantial gltt In the
death of His only begotten son and It reached
the lowest depths of man's spiritual wants.
It should be the aim ot Ills followers to Imi
tate Him. As Ho had loved us , so wo should
love one another ; as Ho had helped us In
our hour of need , so we should others who
needed our assistance , and In this was one
of the meat Important lessons of the day.

When the Mississippi river WM chosen for
the dividing line between Illinois and what
later became Iowa It was probably picked
upon as a well marked line liable to stay
where It was put co the map und not apt to
winder off and get lost , requiring the serv
ices of d relief expedition to find and relocate
It , as recently happened In the case of the
lowa-M'lssourl oMte line. As u matter ot
fact , recent experiences have proved that
rivers are , oo belter boundaries ot political
divisions than 1'ind ' Hoes. IA striking ex
ample of their Instability , says the DCS

action ot two slate le&islaturcs to correct the

THU WANDERING MISSISSIPPI.
The'geologlsts employed by the government
and the offlcers of the Iowa geological sur
vey have been looking up the past history
of the Mississippi river and they find that It
has been accustomed to wtadering over a
considerable portion ot Iowa and Illinois In
the bygone agca. In the- list few centuries
It has settled down to a quiet and rathei
uneventful life , staying clcoe to home , but la
Us present course the river Is a relatively
young stream. Some parts of It ere older
than others -ind In a portion of Its course
It is suspected that It formerly ran north
rather than south. In fact , the present Mis
sissippi has beta made up of several formci
rlvens. Ihe general line of the river has
been a drainage channel , however , for a
long time. So long In fact that even the ge
ologLsts , who llko to speak carelessly of ten
or a hundred thousand years as mere mln
utes. or fractions of time , are content to
speak of It with respect. Probably evei
since the cretaceous eoas left the region ,
perhaps earlier , there has boon some sort ol
a river in the region. Before that time
the Allegheny mountains are thought to
h'lve extended west across the course ot
the Mississippi , connecting with the moun
tains of Arkansas. When they sank the
waters of the Interior found' ' an outlet to
the gulf , -which then , and for a long tlmo
after , probably extended as far north as
Cairo. t
In these early days , which are known
rather Indefinitely as la preglfclal time or
Just before the Ice age , the Rock or Illi
nois river was probably the main stream
of that region. Probably both streams ex
isted , as well as aomethlng answering to
the Iowa and the Ceaar. The course ot
the Mississippi above Davenport was oc
cupied by a smaller stream. The uppei
Mississippi of that time probably flowed
north rather than south and some who
have studied the matter thtak that even as
far south as Dubuque this was true.
MISSOURI FACED ABOUT.
Most of the Important rivers of the United
States did flow north then. The upper Mis
souri , for example , down as far probably as
Fort Buford ran off toward the Arctic ocean.
The main tributary of the Mississippi from
the west was the James river , which had the
Missouri valley from Its mouth to St. Louis.
Between Fort Buford and Vermllllon the Mis
souri valley is all now. At the same time the
Ohio river would not have appeared on any
good and correct maps. The rivers of Mark
Hannr.'s domains then ran north and emptied
Into the lakes. They brought with them the
waters of the New and Kanawha rivers , so
that even a portion of North Carolina
drained into the St. Lawrence. If preglaclal
man studied geography In these days he must
have had queer looking maps.
The first tlmo the Ice came down from the
north it left such feeble marks that Its effect
upon the rivers car.not be positively stated.
The second Ice sheet , which Is called
the Kansan , because It never got any further
down than northeastern Kansas but settled
down there and died of old age , came In from
the northwest. It doubtless reversed the up
per Mississippi and seems to have pushed the
lower course of the Mississippi from Clinton
south , far to the eastward ; perhaps as far as
the Illinois river , thus adding a good bit of
territory to Iowa. This condition of thlncs
lasted to ? some time , until the the Ice of the
northeast , the Illinois Ice sheet , came Into the
country to rectify things and pushed the river
over to the west again , and a whole new se
ries of school geographies had to be made.
This time the .Mississippi left Its present
course , at the mouth of the Maquoketa river ,
flowing up that stream to near Spragueville ,
from which point It took a.course south past
Goose lake to Brooklyn creek , down which It
flowed to the Wapslplnnlcon. It ran up this
river to near Dlxon , where it cut across the
country to Moscow on the Cedar. It occupied
the channel of this river to near Columbus
Junction , where It went up Long creek and
across the divide to Crooked creek , which it
turned Into the Skunk river near Coppack.
The Skunk river was not a very big stream
then , but with this Increase of water It broad-
tned Its channel rapidly. The Mississippi left
the valley , however , and cut a channel of Its
own across Lee county and back to Its old
valley above Keokuk. It ran through this
tortuous channel from Green Island to Kco-
kuk as long as the Ice covered the country to
the east.
east.AFFECTED
AFFECTED BY ICE PACKS ,
Ono curious Incident was the fact that the
Ice by damming up Its lower course caused
the Iowa to form a lake. This lake extended
up the Iowa to about where Iowa City now
is , and tip the CccMr to the main line or the
Rock Island road. At Atallssa , In Muscattne
county , the railway runs over the bottom of
this lake , and Its shores , and oven an Island
In It , may bo plainly seen from the train.
When the eastern Ice melted tack the lower
poitlons of the river followed It as far as the
present river channel and the old abandoned
channel , now high above the river , was left
as a mark of this Invasion. TfoU channel Is
very well shown near West Point , In Lt-e
county.
The next Ice which came in was from the
northwest and pushed the upper portion of
the river east from the Goose lake to the
present channel between Savannah and Clin
ton. It was a thin Ice and did not carry
much debris , so that It failed to entirely 1111
the Goose lake channel. Perhaps , also , t'.ie
channel fervecl to carry off part ot the water
from the melting Ice. In any event , It
stretches off acro&i the country now as plainly
marked as any river valley In the state , and
yet In cart ot Ita course It has no Atrcam.
When this lowan Ice was coining In from
the northwest there was a contemporaneous
Ice sheet over northern Illinois. It came as
far west as Hock Island and established the
course of the river at that paint. Curiously
enough It left the river-In such a position
that a narrow strip of the coil fields of Il
linois wan left on the Iowa side and the
Buffalo mines -work this coal. It also stopped
on the other side of Scott county ; possibly
with an eye to preserving the future repub
lican majorities In Illinois from the ravages
of the Siatt county democrats.

DENVER , Colo. , Dec. 25. ( Special. ) The
receipts of gold at the Denver branch mint
on Thursday brought the total for the year
to $12,000,000 , which has been steadily pre
dicted by the officials of the mint since the
first of July. At the close of business on
Wednesday the receipts for the year amounted ,
to $11,963.01. When the books were closed !
for the day at noon yesterday the estimated ;
value of the day's deposits was $07,000 ,
making the total receipts for the year up to' '
date $12,030,495.61. The books of the inlntj
will close for the year on Tuesday next at
noon , and from Information In possession of
the officials It Is believed that the receipts
of the next three business days will amount
to nearly $200,000 , making the total for the
year nearly $12,250,000. The director of the
mint has requested lfte local officers to for
ward an estimate ol the gold production of
the state In advance of the compilation of the
exact figures. The mint Is In receipt of In
formation from the several districts ot the
slate which lead to the belief that the total
croduction will be not less than $21,000,000.
This Is regarded as a conservative estimate ,
and unless something occurs to change this
estimate between now and the middle of next
week , these will be the figures reported. It Is
the opinion of many of the leading miners
and smelter , ; that when the full returns are
received the production will be found to be
very near $23,000,000.
The Increase over the production of ! S9i >
Is more than 200 per cent- The deposits ot
1S9G were $3,913,149.83 In gold and $23,215.40
In silver. The advance In the production h-as
been constant from the commencement of the
year. Each month has shown a heavy gain
upon tfoo corresponding month ot the pre
ceding year , and when May was reached the
total showed plainly that the Increase would
be abnormal. The fact that there are In the
Cripple Creek district not less than 20,000
tons of ore that It Is believed will run from
$20 to $30 per ton which cannot be marketed
with the present reduction facilities , and the
certainty that there will be a very heavy
Increase In next year's production , Justifies
the belief that the production of that district
will bo very largely Increased In 1898 , and
as It Is equally certain that other districts
In the state will also Increase their produc
tion the mint officials have already com
menced to make calculations In regard to the
manner In which the gold product of 1S9S can
bo handled In their present quarters.

DENVER , Dec. 25. Many encouraging let
ters toave been received by Secretary Wil
liams within the last week relating to the
convention ot stock growers to bo held here
In January. The following from Governor
Silas A. Holcomb ot Nebraska would indicate
that thcro will be a large delegation from
that , state at the January meeting :
"I find that considerable Interest Is being
taken by Nebraska stockmen In the conven
tion to be held at Denver next month. Sev
eral days ago I commissioned W. N. Han
cock of Omaha as delegate to represent Ne
braska and upon request commissioned Mr.
Hoblnfon of Omaha as alternate. I am now
In rece.'pt ot a letter from P. Jansen , one
of the foremost stock growers In Nebraska ,
and a gentleman greatly Interested In sheep
breeding , who desires to attend as a delegate.
I have taken tftc liberty of commissioning
Mr. Jansen , as second alternate. I hope thai
It may be possible for each of these gentle
men to be given a scat and a voice In the
convention , as they are representative of the
live stok industry of this state. I would /
suggest that Mr. Jansen would be a good'
man to speak upcti any subject relative to the
sheep Industry In the west. "
A reply was sent to Governor Holcomb
stating that the Interest In the convention
manifested In Nebraska was very gratifying ,
and a'lat all delegates and visitors from his
state would be given the freedom of the
city and every courtesy extended by the con
vention.
