Sammies Uncle
Dick
By RUBY DOUGLAS
J*""™! ILEXIA stood over the
y ( jf a kitchen range popping
corn, and the reflection
j of the crimson coals in
\ her cheeks was like a
a full-blown blush rose.
' It was 1 he day before
flji'jatm Christmas and. save
for the long strands of
popcorn Alexia was
preparing, her great
"j\ Christmas tree was
- dieted. It stood in
the dining-room, its
branches projecting about the windows
heavily laden with mysterious berib
boned parcels and rainbow-hued orna
ments.
"A real Christmas, after all," cried
Alexia, and the smile which accom
panied the words would have led one
to believe that she was in her sixth
winter instead of in her three-times
that-many with a few years added—
just a few years, though! The fam
ily Bible said Alexia was two-and
twenty.
A great gust of wind drew her at
tention suddenly without. She stool
by the Window wondering if it was to
bo a real blizzard like they had in
the west.
The heap of snow was growing
larger and larger, and she watched the
feathery fiakes pile up on each other
affectionately. All at once a white
something, larger and more substan
tial than a snowflake, was drifted onto
the heap. It was a tiny white en
velope.
When she had finished the popper of
corn Alexia opened the window and
picked tip the damp little paper. One
short word was written in a much
blurred and childish hand: "God."
Alexia would not have been so sur
prised if it had been Santa Claus.
Children often write to him.
Out of the envelope she pulled a
piece of note paper—probably surrep
titiously borrowed —on which was writ
ten in the undeveloped hand of a little
one:
"Dear God. please make me a Christ
mas tree like the one in the window
across the court. I can see it. I will
put this on the roof so's you'll get it
sooner. Yours truly, Sammie."
So Sammie was the name of the lit
tle boy she had seen so often in the
opposite window. He seemed lonely;
she judged that his mother was dead
and that the child's father was a busy,
thoughtless man. An old housekeeper
was the only person she ever saw
about the apartment.
It was because Alexia had been a lit
tle lonely herself as Christmas drew
near—her first Yuletide in the city—
that she had gathered this little circle
of poor children and planned a party
for them. Her reasons were not purely
philanthropic.
There was no need of two persons
being lonely. Alexia philosophized, and
she straightway went over to inter
view the old housekeeper in regard to
Sammie. She did not mention the
note, for, should the child find out,
his faith would be shattered.
On Christmas morning, before Alexia
was fully dressed, a small young male
visitor was announced. No name was
given, and she wondered if some of the
poor little children, in his joyful an
ticipation of the day. had been unable
to restrain himself until the appointed
hour of the party.
But it was Sammie. He stood breath
lessly in the hall without either coat
or hat, his little cheeks bright with
the nipping breath of Jack Frost.
"Uncle Dick's come," he said, by
way of introduction to his mission.
"My Uncle Dick came last night, and —
and I can't leave him all alone. Please
can't he come, too?"
"Of course, Sammie, bring Uncle
Dick along." she said, taking his little
round face in her hands.
Alexia's children had all arrived but
Sammie, and the dining-room was
filled with ejaculations of delight ai
each new view of the splendid tree.
She was beginning to wonder wheth
er or not i'ncle Dick had prevented
Sainmio's coming when an impatient
tingle of the bell seemed to say "Sam
mie."
Alexia answered the ring herself.
■'Here's I'ncle Dick," said her small
Triend before she could open the door
Tor him. "Where's the tree?" he cried,

TRUCE OF CHRISTMAS DAY
Song of Israel Causes Suspension of
Hostilities Which Neither Army
Could Resist.
"On the night preceding the 25th
of December, 1870," began a captain,
according to the Methodist Recorder,
"I was in command of a company of
volunteers engaged in the defense of
Paris. The siege had already lasted
three months, and in the trenches my
brave comrades were enduring martyr
dom of suffering and privation. The
cold was biting bitterly; the stars were
shivering in a cloudless sky; the moon
shone brightly on the snow-clad plain
between us and the enemy; the Gen
man trenches were so close to us that
we could hear the passwords of their
sentinels as, hour by hour, they were
relieved and passed into their camp.
"As I was walking about to keep my
feet from freezing, one of my men
came up to me, and, saluting, said:
'Captain, I have a strange request to
make; I want you to permit me for a
little while to leave the trenches.'
" 'Leave the trenches?' I replied.
'But why? Because it is so cold? It
will he warm enough when we begin
to fight.'
" 'lt is not that. I ask you, as a
favor, to allow me for a little while
to leave my post. I cannot tell you
why; hut, if you grant me leave, 1
promise you you won't regret it.'
" 'lmpossible! You want togo to
Paris. If I give you leave, I cannot
well deny it to tne rest.'
" 'No, not to Paris,' said he, smil
ing, 'but in that direction,' pointing
toward the German lines. 'I shan't be
long.'
"He had aroused my curiosity. I
granted him permission, but warned
him that he would most probably get
killed.
" 'No fear,' he said, and, leaping over
the ramparts, he walked into the mid
dle of the plain.
"We followed him with our eyes,
listening for the sharp crack of the
enemy's rifles, and expecting at every
step to see him fall. Not a sound,
save the crunching of the frozen snow
beneath his feet! As soon as he had
come within hearing of the German
sentries he paused, saluted, and began
to sing a well-known Christmas hymn,
with the refrain:
"Noel! Not-!! Christ is King o, Israel!"
"It was so unexpected and so simply
done, the strain took from the night,
the scene, the circumstances, such a
beauty and sublimity that the least
religious of us hung upon his lips,
and the hardest hearted in our trench
were moved. The Germans neither
spoke nor stirred. It seemed as if a
speii had bound them all in silence and
in immobility. The simple strain had
doubtless made them think of home
and of the happy groups around the
glittering Christmas trees beyond the
Rhine. They were evidently listening. |
for no other sound was audible —not j
a step, not a movement of arms. As j
soon as X had done his hymn j
he gave another military salute, turned |
on his heel as on a pivot, and delib- |
erately walked back to our line.
" 'Well, captain,' said he, 'are you !
sorry that you gave me leave?'
"Before I could reply, a soldier had
begun to move across the snow from '
the opposite eamp. He, like X ,
saluted, and, between the companies
of armed men, he sang a German ver
sion of the 'Noel, Noel,' that the
French recruit had sung. I had given
orders, though they were superfluous,
not to fire on him. He sang the hymn
through, verse by verse, and when he i
came to the refrain, the soldiers in
both camps joined in the chorus:
"Noel! Noel! Christ hath ransomed
Israel!"
"The same emotion filled all hearts'.
All diversities and enmities had been
forgottten in the presence of the
Prince of Peace. The soldier then de
parted to the German lines and dis
appeared. A few hours later we be
gan to fire again."

The practice of making presents on

HER RULE OF XMAS GIFTS.
Painstaking Aunt Hai a System of
Hei Own by Which She Distributes
Gifts tp Her Relatives.
The right rule for a gift, according
to Emerson, is that it should be some
thing which will "convey to some per
son that which properly belongs to his
character, and is easily associated
with him in thought."
There are few people indeed who
i'o not at least try to consider the
particular taste and character of the
friends to whom they give, says the
Youth s Companion. Hut once iti
awhile a matter-of-fact person quite
tails to perceive that this is necessary
A good thing is a good thing, in the
eyes of such a giver, and it may be
assumed that the recipient will_ there
fore like it, and be grateful, unless, in
deed, he happens to have it already,
which is the one possibility to bo
dreaded.
There is a placid, painstaking, pro
saic, but much beloved aged aunt to a
iarge flock of youthful nephews and
nieces whose system, based upon this
comfortably simple view, refuses to
consider even the drawback of du
plication. Every Christmas she
everything she gives, and her pres
pnts are of two kinds: one for gir'.s
and one for boys.
One year it may be penwipers for
the brothers and needlebooks for th-3
bisters, the next, mufflers for the one
and mittens for the other. Theso
articles she patiently and leisurely
produces for weeks beforehand. They
are always tasteful in tint and ex
quisitely made, and are usually wel
come.
An unfortunate schoolgirl whose
birthday in November had brought her
already two pairs of bed-shoes, in
what she had discovered to be Aunc
Elmira's bed-shoe year, tried to avoid
a third pair by a word in season con
veyed discreetly through a cousin.
"Dear, dear!" murmured Aunt El
lnira, softly, halting her knitting
needles for an instant. "Both pairs
blue, did you say, child? I must bo
sure that my pair is pink, and —yes,
that is a very good idea —I'll knit
them a size or two larger, so she can
wear out the other first, and be quite
sure they will fit when she is ready
for them. Pink with a white finish
should be pretty."
Very gently the cousin hinted at
some other present, but Aunt Elmira's
head was shaken at once, a slight but
decisive shake.
"No, dear," she affirmed, tranquilly,
"two kinds of gifts are all I can make
in one year without feeling myself
worried and flurried. Ruth will find
her bed-shoes just as serviceable and
just as pretty a year or two later, if
she can't wear them now; it doesn't
matter. My mind was made up long
ago, my dear, that too many Christ
mases were spoiled by worrying."
Perhaps Ruth was not wholly grate
ful for the pink shoes, and the system
may-be questioned; but Aunt Elmira's
lrienus certainly find the spectacle of
one person always unhurried, unwor
ried and unruffled, even in the wild
weeks before Christmas, a soothing
and refreshing sight.
CHRISTMAS TREE FEATURE.
Dancing Dolls Above Parlor Decor
ation Produces Pretty Effect
for Holiday.
Dancing Christmas fairies always en
hance the children's delight in the
Christmas tree, and once made can bo
used year after year, says Woman's
Home Companion. Buy up a dozen or
more of five and ten-cent dolls, and to
add to the variety have among the num
ber some Japanese and colored dolls.
Dress these to represent fairies in bright
hues of spangled gau/.e, tarlatan or tis
sue paper, and liberally sprinkle their
hair and garments with diamond-dust
powder. Each doll should be provided
with a dainty pair of fairy wings made
from spangled tissue paper and fastened
to the body by means of concealed wires.
These wires should be coiled to obtain
motion in the wings, and nothing better
can be used than the fine spiral coils
that come out of worn-out. wire-stitched
brooms. The least motion will set this
spiral to quivering, causing the wings
to move as if in flight. In like manner
use the spiral wire to attach the dolls in
hovering positions over and around the
tree. The effect is magical; every foot
step causes jar enough to start the dolls
dancing and circling above and around
the tree, as if invisible fairies of the air
had come down to join him in the
Christmas glee.

On Christmas Eve put nine mistle
toe berries 10 steep in equal parts of
honey and vinegar, quaff the decoc

a girl should pull 12 hairs from her
head, make them into a ring, put it
into the prayer-book at the marriage
service and sleep with the book under
her pillow. Her future husband will

HAS NEW GOVERNOR,
CAPT. FRANTZ TO SUCCT.ED FER- I
GUSON OF OKLAHOMA.
President Selects Ex-"Rough Rider"
for Post—How a Political Career
Was Begun by a Boxing Con
test with Roosevelt.
Washington.—Capt. Frank Franta
will be the next governor of Oklahoma. I
Ho will succeed Gov. Ferguson when j
the latter's term expires, January 13.
Mr. Roosevelt had shown his confi- j
dence iu the "ex-Rough Rider" captain j
by appointing him postmaster at Enid,
and later Osage Indian agent. He j
eagerly acted upon the suggestion that
Frantz be named as the successor of j
Gov. Ferguson.
If Capt. Frantz should live to receive ,
his commission as governor of Okla
homa, he will be 33 years old, by far
the youngest of the six governors who
have served the people of Oklahoma.
Capt. Frantz was born in Woodford
county, Illinois, May 7, 1872. He is the
son of a farmer of Virginia ancestry. !
He is a man of athletic bu..d, direct
and vigorous in his manner and con
versation. He has the address of the
successful, educated business man, and
his amiability invites friends iip. A
slight impediment in his speech an- j
noys him at times. He is a mixer, !
but has never engaged sufficiently in j
politics to show his ability as an or- j
ganizer.
He was educated in Eureka college,
Eureka, 111., removed to Wellington,
Kan., in 1890, and mined for several
years in California, Arizona and New
Mexico. In 1893 he went to Okla
homa. The Spanish-American war
aroused his patriotism, and he enlisted
in Arizona as a private.
Gov. McCord, of that territory, ap
pointed him first lieutenant, and when
Capt. "Ducky" O'Neil fell in battle,
Frantz led his captainless Troop A
through the engagement and was given
the commission left vacant by O'Neil.
He was mentioned in general orders
for his bravery, and was recommend
ed by Gen. Joseph Wheeler for a brevet
commission at the close of the war.
But congress refused to grant breveta

Oklahoma.)
to volunteer officers. On the back of
his discharge from the army, in Col.
Roosevelt's handwriting, are these
words: "1 promoted him for gallantry
and efficiency in the fight of July 1."
After the close of the war, Cap'
Frantz returned to his home in hind
and engaged in the mercantile busi
ness. He married Miss Matilda Evans,
of Enid, in 1900. They have three chil
dren, two boys and one girl.
Soon after President Roosevelt en
tered the white house Capt. Frantz
called upon him. During their con
versation Frantz remarked that he had
boxed some at Harvard. Then nothing
would do but he must put on the
gloves with the president.
"Bully!" exclaimed Mr. Roosevelt
as he got up rubbing his jaw aftei
the first punch had put him off hia
feet. "But you can't do it again."
They sparred for a few seconds, then
—biff! And the president of the United
States lay on his back on the gymna
sium floor. A right hook to the jaw
had done the work.
Mr. Roosevelt was not out, but he
was not so eager to get up and "mix"
it again.
The boxing bout was ended and
Frantz' political career begun. He was
first made postmaster at Enid. Then
he declined the Osage Indian agency
because the salary of SI,BOO was not
enough. He nr-t Secretary Hitchcock
iu St. Louis l>y request.
"J didn't indorse you for the posi
tion," admitted Secretary Hitchcock,
"but the president wants you. He says
there has been considerable graft at
the Osage agency, and he wants you
to clean it up."
"All right," answered Capt. Frantz,
"if the president asked me togo to
South Africa, and there wasn't a cent
in it, I'd take the trip. I'll take the
place."
Frantz was installed as agent for the
Osage Indians, and there has been no
hint of graft since. Now this same
Harvard rough-rider-boxer has been
named governor of Oklahoma.
There are four Frantz brothers. Or

The Fashions of the Winter
One is impressed by the combination |
of thin stuffs and velvet, almost every
good .dressmaker will have a model
showing this feature of the season's
styles. Net and velvet are united, and
with good effect, the net heavy and sub
stantial, the velvet used as band at the
bottom and rather sparingly otherwise.
One excellent model of brown net thus
trimmed was brought to our attention,
and also a good black, made up over
white. The brown had a brown founda
tion.
A peacock-blue broadcloth embroid
ered elaborately in the feathers of this
proud bird, was completed by a hat of

velvet in the peacock blue, one of the
small tip-tilted affairs we expect and
see on every other woman we meet.
Although the style is common, many of
the individual hats are not at all com
mon, still spell style. A peacock green
cloth of softest, most beautiful appear
ance, had one feature particularly no
ticeable; the sleeves slashed to the
shoulder to disclose cream net under
sleeves. and the vest made with a V at
the neck to give another hint of the net
waist.
Brown, which we seemed to think
quite out of fashion, promises presently
to be in the height of fashion. A warm
shade in velvet is most effective when
employed with rich dark fu.s, and re
cently we were attracted by a handsome
seal coat made with rolling fronts and
a straight, loose front of brown velvet,
embroidered delicately in gold. Brown
crepe de chine is exquisite. This well
appreciated material now comes in all
shades. Crepe de chine loses none of its
vogue; we should say it is more in favor
than ever. The lovely dahlia shades are
particularly lovely in crepe; and also
the lighter shades of red at present so
much approved, the old rose and pinks.
Yesterday a girl out for a walk flashed
by in a chic costume of rose broadcloth,
Fancies in Feminine Dress
Icy winds may blow, snow lie deep on
the ground, yet Milady appears on the
street as well as In the house with
sleeves cut off at the elbow. The three
quarter sleeve is a long one these days;
banished the one-time wrist length, save
for shirt-waist and such strictly utili
tarian garment. Of course this means
expensive long gloves. What is saved
in sleeves is more than lost in "hand
shuhe."
The fashionable long glove for even
ing wear is the white suede, and it is
often seen with the dressier afternoon
costumes. It makes one long for the
excellent and cheap London glove; here
in America we have to pay so much for
this trifle of the toilette. To those in-
I terested in economy we would add that
the long black suede glove is in excel
lent style, and that long glove may mean
the 8. 12 or 24 button. A black glove
makes the hand look small, and the
suede outlines the arm prettily.
We note the number of attractive hats
j that are trimmed with illusion. This
I morning we saw a very good one with
I a lace crown, the crown a low cone, the
brim edged with white velvet; a ruff
of white illusion almost concealed the
brim and mounted well upon the crown;
a dusted of three camelias nestled in
the illusion on one side, well toward the
front, and under the turned-up back was
a quantity of ribbon the same soft shade
as the camelias, a pinky white.
A beautiful largish hat—none of the
hats this year are very big— of violet
j panne, was a dream. The panne tilted
[ smoothly, this giving a satin sheen
| much better than folds or pulls would
have been. The shape was uot unlike
a longisli sailor of years agone, theouly
I trimming a ruche of white illusion.
| And concerning the color of hat one
! should wear, taste is divided between
; the hut that matches the costume exact
ly and the one that contrasts. An ele
| gant gray gown nnd wrap were worn
with a hat of i>eacock blue velvet; the
effect very good. Peacock blue and
peacock green are In highest favor in
! both millinery and gowns; the cheap
l feathers have not driven them out.

very becoming, and not a few are seen

the skirt a high princess, the coat short,
with waistcoat of lace showing. One
meets, day and evening, both light
shades and dark; there is not now suctk
criticism of overdressing as once there
was. In the current phrase, everything
goes.
A new shade is apricot, a pinkish yel
low that, in spite of prejudice, is very
fetching, and very becoming when be
coming at all. It is especially good in
soft cloths and in millinery. Glaring
colors and combinations, we rejoice to
say, are relegated to the background—
are quite banished. Long may they
stay away! The peacocks are brilliant,
but they are beautifully, not crudely,
brilliant. The tinsel used is not the
cheap, showy sort, but of rich beauty,
and lovely embroidered beltings are seen
at the exclusive shops.
It may not be out of place to speak or
the coiffure of the season and the style
of comb in favor. The hair is done bigli
on the head, with a very loose, puffy ar
rangement at back and sides. The pref
erence is given to a single back comb,
a wide, elaborate one. For the puff at
the back many make use of the "rat;"
alas, many who present a most untidy
appearance, the pad showing througa
and adding to the disheveledness. This
style is good when not exaggerated; very
bad when untidy. Lovely combs may be
had with an edge of gold filagree, the
first cost considerable, but they never
tarnfgh, can be banded down as an heir
loom.
Taken by and large women this year
present a neat, smart appearance, the
tailored suits to have the credit. To be
sure, there are loose effects, but the lines
are long and straight. The neat wom
an does not necessarily mean prim; to
day it means smart.
A few weeks ago we chronicled the
use of ribbons as trimming, and wouhl
again call attention to the fact that they
are distinctly in style. A show window
may have on display a half dozen cos
tumes trimmed with ribbon, and to-day
we paused before one filled with net
evening gowns adorned with rows and
rows of ribbon frills, the frills narrow;
and in colors. One white net had laven
der frills; a prettier costume was or
pink and white and one equal to this in
prettiness was of blue and white. A
very white toque went well with the
last, its sole trimming a soft Huff of pale
blue high on one side.
To obtain the fashionable low tiare
for the skirt there is now in use a feath
erbone framework with silk ilounce at
the foot. It does not interfere with the
natural lines of the figure and does bolct
the skirt out gracefully. Some dress
makers make use of hair cloth flounces,
but the featherbone frame has goon
points. It is made up daintily as pos
sible, the bones covered with shirred
ribbon. It is not so expensive nor so
heavy as a much befrilied petticoat, and
gives the right hang to the skirt above
A smart raincoat is in box coat style,
and has'pockets above and below the
waist. The favored colors are tans, Ox
fords and olive greens, and the coats
now come in heavier materials than for
merly, meeting the demand for a win
ter wrap. The separate long coat is
growing in favor, a coat that may be
worn with different gowns. Women
have got tired of the suit with its ten
dency for the skirt to fade and present
ly not match the jacket; welcome the
separate warp.
