A CHRISTMAS SONG. A bird upon a holly spray, Ning sweetly all on Xmas day: "<Jood morrow, folks. How do you dot A tnenie A mas, all of your* 0 rich, ye poor, ye old, ye young, Heard welcome of yts joyous tongue, And all were glad to hoar yt day Ye bird upon ye holly spray. And if you do believe ys true AN t 1 have told herein to you Ye bird upon ye holly spray Shall surely say to you today: "Good morrow, friends. How do you dot •Peace and good will to yours and you." —Eugene Field. 112 Father Lamier's \ i\. New Cassock. J 1 • j ■/ "Jeanne, you will give nuts, red ap ples and dried plums to Gelynotte and Moreau to till the sabots of the little ones. Et in secula seculorum," mur mured M. le Cure, who then resumed the reading of his breviary, which had been interrupted by the numberless preparations for the fete of the follow ing day. He bent his spectacles anew over the book, closing his ears in vain to the joyous outbursts which rang throughout the place 011 this the eve of the day so blessed. Joy tilled the air and troubled his meditations. He could not prevent his paternal heart from sharing in the innocent pleasures of the flock over which lie had watched and to which lie had ministered for more than 30 years. This year, for the first time in his life, the cure was ta celebrate the holy anniversary with a delight less intense, r~7 Ui&'i 'rr* "MATTHEW, IIAVK YOU MY CASSOCK?" a heart less light, than usual. Care Ir ritated and troubled ids serene benevo- ' Jeuce and checked his compassion for others, his forgiveness of wrongdoing. Play actors were installed opposite the rectory, at the Hotel du Dauphin, at the other side of the square. What a trial it had been for him! For ten i days tliey had boon there. Soulaire had ! seemed as though seized with a fever. At each corner of the street many col ored posters were to be seen, and in front of them groups of people gath ered, commenting upon the spectacle of the previous night or that heralded for tlio coming evening. The streets, which, as a rule, were deserted at 'J o'clock, were thronged until after midnight. From end to end of the little town the merits of the respective players were talked of. A roll of drums was heard beneath the window, and M. Laniier sprang to his feet. The nasal voice of Father Onesime, the public crier and game keeper, was heard distinctly calling aloud in the same tone as the worthy man ordinarily invited tlio citizens to hill the while worms or to muzzle their dogs: "Ilochary Troupe. Soulaire Theatre •(Grain Market), this evening. For the lirst time the great success, 'The Abbe Constantin,' comedy by Ludovic Ila levy of the Academic Francaiso. M. Artemon of the Chatelet will till the role of the Abbe Constantin. Mile. Valerie, from the theaters of Brest and Algeria, will appear as Bettina. The •usual price of admission." A roll of wheels announced the ar rival of the diligence, which halted at "the hotel opposite, and the passengers flighted with a great deal of noise, the •omen precipitating themselves from 10 interior like a cloud of wasps, deaf ing the driver. "Late, as usual. Matthew. Where my new muff? Matthew, where is otor's mechanical horse?" And Matthew, with his fat face uslied and framed in the ear laps of Ills cap. dived down into the hood of the imperial, which was inflated like a balloon, and withdrew packages and boxes. "Come, Matthew, the abbe's new cassock," said Joanne. "Matthew, have you my cassock?" uddonly cried from a window in the otel du Dauphin a man who dirplay -1 a face covered with soap, a napkin iround his neck and a shaving brush n his hand. The driver introduced his arm anew .«to the hood and after a careful search drew forth two parcels of un *qual size. "Here Is something for you. Mile. Jeanne. And here, M. Artemon. is all hat was given 1110 for M. Hoehary's company." And from the top of the diligence lie held out a long, narrow card box to the comedian, who leaned forward to receive it. In its aerial transit the cover, which had been bad ly tied on, fell to the ground, and a •is of yellow hair was caught by temon on the wing, like a flag float-, : in the wind. ttina's wig!" exclaimed the ex . actor. "Bettina's wig and not • cassock, the cassock of the Abbe instant In. Whore the devil have you >ut it. rascal?" "On my word of honor, 1 have noth ing e15..," asserted Matthew, display lr,s; his-empty hands. "How aunrying, fellow! There has been some mistake, mademoiselle. Mademoiselle," lie en lied despairingly to Jeanne, who liad turned away will; a majestic air, "are you sure that you have not tile cassock?" "Scamp!" said the haughty house keeper disdainfully. Down the stairs M. Artemon flew, four steps at a time, and rushed into the greenroom, where the rest of the company were assembled. His hurried entrance tilled them all with conster nation. "My friends," lie exclaimed tragic ally, "the posters must he changed or the performance postponed. I can not play the role of the Abbe Constan tin tonight." "Artemon." said a cavernous voice, "what is the meaning of this caprice? What of th'j box oiiice money, the ex penses of tin- „iammcs and the ad vi rtisi"" You know as well as I do v...1 we are at the em l A our re sources and that our last venture was a failure. Don't try your Mile. Mars on us, my good fellow. We play to night!" "But can you not understand? I have not a cassock!" gasped the un happy Artemon, letting his arms fall with dejection. "Cannot a cassock bo improvised with a black dress and a cloak of one of the ladies?" hazarded Ilochary. "The ladies are much too short and slight," groaned Artemon, who re joiced in an imposing corpulency. "As for me, I have only the Figaro costume, Peruvian pantaloons and the black coat for I'ierrot and a flowered morning gown." said the manager pen sively. "For heaven's sake, ladies, aid us with your suggestions! We must play the piece at any cost." The situation was critical for the poor artists, whose present tour had been far from successful. The lead ing man then proposed to gallop at full speed to the neighboring city, but this suggestion was not deemed prac ticable. "What is to be done? There is not one garb of the required kind among the properties of this accursed hole," repeated Ilochary in an outburst of impotent rage. Suddenly Artemon struck his fore head violently, and his entire bearing denoted a genuine inspiration. "All, my friends," he exclaimed, in a voice full of emotion, "what a wild hope! So much the worse. I will at tempt the adventure. It is our only hope of salvation." In a few words lie explained. "Come to 111 j- arms, my son!" ex claimed M. Ilochary, extending his legs with enthusiasm. And Artemon ran off to finish his shaving, to don his black frock coat and then direct his steps to the cure's. Happily for the actor, Jeanne was absent putting the last touches on the church decorations, and it was one of the chorus children who innocently opened the door of the rectory and in troduced the visitor into the room where the good cure was terminating his devotions. At the sight of this ap parition M. I.ainit-r became fixed upon his seat like a statue. His good, rosy visage, usually so calm, was now Hush ed to the roots of his thin, white hair, and instinctively he clasped his book to his breast. Meanwhile satan's instrument bowed deferentially. ">.'o, M. le Cure," lie said; "it is not alms we ask. Lend us simply your cassock!" "My cassock!" gasped the Abbe La nder, astonished. "You wish my cas sock?" "The oldest and most wornout in your possession, one that you may h; ,*o thrown aside," Artemon hastened to say. "I am to play tonight the role of the Abbe Coiistantiu, and 1 cannot rep resent my character without conform ing to its demands and carrying out its sacerdotal dignity." M. Laniier sprang from his seat. "Do you think for a moment, mon sieur," lie said, overcome by surprise and anger, "to profane a gown that lias served at worship and to make me the accomplice of these sinful amuse ments? Your ignorance respecting holy things and religion is your only ex cuse." "Pardon me, M. le Cure," continued the actor, slightly embarrassed, but not the less determined. "It would not bo the lirst time religion lias lent its aid to the drama. Do you recall the celebrat ed mysteries of the middle ages? More over, 1 was educated in a seminary, and it was there I was led to adopt the vocation of actor in playing the role of Athalic for the l'eto of the superior." M. Laniier, without being disarmed, looked again at the actor with new interest, if this unhappy man had followed a bad calling, his point of departure had at least been good. His heart could not, therefore, be corroded throughout, and perhaps it would be possible to point out to him the error of ids ways. "How comes it." said the abbe, with bitterness, "that you play 011 Christ mas eve?" "Alas, M. le Cure," replied Artemon, with simplicity, "we must eat on that %ight, as 011 any other!" M. Laniier was touched to the heart by this reply. "Poor fellow!" The soul of the good priest was tilled with grief. lie felt too unhappy to refuse till! speaker anything. "But," lie groaned, looking plaintive ly at Artemon, "can you not choose another piece rather than expose a servant of God to the risk of such a sacrilege and also to risk perverting the souls of those disposed to be for vent?" Artemon approached him confiden tially. "You see, M. le Cure, you have never attended the theater." "But—well, certainly not," replied the abbe, startled by the very idea. "It is for that very reason that you regard it as a place of evil. Why, the CAMERON COUNTY PRESS, THURSDAY, DECEMBER 21, 1899. theater Is the scnool of morals which seconds those of the church. Our dra mas are simply sermons put into ac tion. There is 110 piece which virtue | is not lauded and vice and hypocrisy scourged. Ah, it is a noble work, that of the comedian, in the eyes of those who understand it!" •'What a pity this Artemon is not a 1 preacher!" thought M. Laniier, fasci- i nated. "His large face, closely shaved, With its cheeks like a Dominican, ! would look very well in a pulpit, and j his insinuating voice and speaking j gestures would be very effective for good." "Among us, I dare to say, there are I many good fellows," continued Arte- j moil. "United households, good moth- ' ers of families, good citizens, abound : with us." He procr ' .) cite examples. Mile. Valerie, a child of the stage, who was ! the support of her parents; M.and j Mme. Ilocliaray, models of conjugal ten derness —one and till held their hearts i in their hands and never refused a service or kindness to a comrade, never ! refused to do a good work, a good ac tion. "Is an actor ever to be seen on the ! culprit's stool except for debt?" said the comedian, bringing his warm pan- j egyric to a close. "It is true we are, 1 for the most part, roving grasshon*" .J, j and grasshoppers have not ai, more chance today than they had in La j Fontaine's time." The words were spoken with dis- j couragoment, owing to the immovabil ity of tlu.' cure. As ho spoke the actor t arose and brushed his hat with gloomy ! energy. "Well," he sighed, "we alone shall pass a sad Christmas while all the 1 world besides will be blithe and hap- j py. M. lo Cure, pardon me for having j taken up so much of your time." He turned toward the door. The old priest aroused himself. "Jeanne," lie called in a loud voice, ! full of the exaltation of triumphant j charity, "bring me at once my new cas- j sock!" "Ah, M. lo Cure!" exclaimed the actor, overcome by the unexpected sue 'is and pressing the priest's hands with of- j fusion. As Jeanne entered with the cassock j upon her arm in great folds the priest j rebuked her for loitering. "Now bring mo my shoes with the | silver buckles. Bun quickly! Why, a ; snail would go as fast. Is it not so, M. Actor? And a hat also—you must '■ have a hat." "What?" said Jeanne, shuddering, j "Are you going to lend your clothes to ; the theater, M. lo Cure—your new cas- j sock —you, who will hold mass at mid- j night"— "Truly, I do not ask so much," pro tested Artemon, confused, while tlio cure laid the cassock on his arm. "An old cassock would serve my purpose. I beg that you will not deprive yotir- j self." "What are you thinking?" replied M. > Lainier. "Beneath the robes my cas- ! sock will not be seen, while yours will be, so to say, under lire, and if the rents were viewed it would be a pity. The Abbe Constantin must not call | fortli ridicule." "llow can we ever prove our grati- I tude?" siiid the actor, his eyes actually j filled with tears, and he reiterated liis i thanks until he had crossed the thresh old of the door. "My dear fellow," said the cure in j a trembling voice, fearing to appear to place a price upon his kindness, "go ; as quickly as possible, accomplish ! what you have to do and return when > the performance is over to attend the i midnight mass. The good God will j thus be satisfied with you, and I also." i On this evening Artemon fairly vi- I bra ted with emotions, surpassing him self in his acting. When, before the gloriously ilinmi- ! nated altar, the good pastor extended his arms lovingly above the crowd kneeling before him, he trembled with Joy to perceive, at tlio lower end of the lateral aisle, among the workmen and laborers, a group of men and women i with weary faces and varied cos tumes, who bowed their heads re- I wl "YrrtAT? ARK YOU GOING TO LEND YOUR CLOTHES TO THE THEATER?" spectfully under the benediction. The poor people had also arranged a little j surprise for their benefactor, and the I weak but expressive voice of Valerie i sang with warmth the "Christmas of tdam," accompanied by a harmonium. Whatever may have been their past, or whatsoever the future might have i in store for them, for that hour at least a ray of God's grace had filled their souls, recalling the sweet and holy remembrances of their childhood. "Peace on earth and good will to- ; frard men! Hosanna in the highest!" The Abbe Laniier, in an ecstasy of mercy and love, raised his dazzled eyes toward the vaulted roof and seemed to see at this sacred moment, among the quivering wings of the an gels and the sparkle of the stars, the luminous smile of the Saviour who walked upon the roads of Samaria and Galilee, surrounded by the miserable ind worthless, and wli-.-s-' the sin ful w unan had v. ip"d with her golden hair.
