There was no general observance of
the Christmas holiday in the churches,

It required two large trees, lighted
with liio incandescent lumps of all col
ors, to satisfy Klin Park Sunday school,

percentage of absentees was slight, the
church being just capable of seating
all comers.
The large amount of I, -00 pounds of
candy was distributed In 2.4ml half
pound packages. The distribution fol

ST. PATRICK'S WEST SIDE. .
Not since the dedication of the
church, when the augmented choir and
liaucr's orchestra rendered tiolinod's
mass, was the congregation of St. Pat
rick's treated to such a grand and in
spiring musical programme as that
given yesterday. If was Silas' mass
and was sun;r by the regular choir di
rected by Haydn Kvuns, who was also
organist. This mass was awarded llrst
prize in an International competition in
Helgluni in istiil, when 700 competitions
from twelve different nations were sub
mitted. It Is quite as difilcult as
Oounnd's, just us stately and dignified
and by many critics considered more
musical except in the Credo, In which
(lotmod is exceptionally happy.
The rendition of the mass was pre
ceded by an organ prelude from IUn
del's Messiah, by Professor Kvuns and
Weigund's "Asperses Me" by the choir.
Then in their order were rendered Silas'
"Kyii." "Olorl," "Credo," "Kantcus."

tette consisting of Mrs. Kate Sullivan,
soprano: Miss Kittle Gibbons, con
tralto; Kdward Walsh, tenor and Wil
liam Vanston, bass. The soloists ac
quitted themselves most meritoriously,
particularly Mr. Vanston, who' never
before essayed a solo part, his work
In the "Gradualo" being especially c:m
menduble. For an offertory Miss Har
riet Ward, the choir's aceompislied
violinist, rendered Masi-agni's "lnter
ni';;::ii,'' Prof. Kvuns accomp mying on
the organ. "Adeste Fidelis," was given

MORE SNOW NEEDED.
That Was the Only Thing Lacking to
Make Yesterday an Ideal Christ
mas Day in This City.
At the risk of hearing some one sny,
"When ou tret uu inch you wa.il a
yard," we will remark, that the only
thing kicking to make It a perfect
Christinas was a little more snow. Of
course there was enough to uvoid the
terrors of a "fat graveyard," but it
would have been ever so much more
pleasant had there been sleighing. In
fact, but for this little oversight of the
weatherman it would have been an
ideal dav. Crisp air, bright sun and
the ground covered with snow.
The day had no particular character
istic to distinguish it ftoni former
Christmas days unless It wu'i that the
usual quietness of the day was Intensi
fied by the contrast w ith ihe extraordi
nary bustle of the day and cvenlnu
preceding. The streets were pretty
well crowded all day, but il was an al
together different crowd to that of the
day before. Then everybody was on
a rush, throngs were filing In anil out
of the brightly lit stores, street cars
Were Jammed with people and pack
ages and delivery wagons rushed hith
er iiml thither.
Yesterday there was the absence of
nil hustle. The stores were closed, the
streets were void of vehicles, compara
tively speaking, und a Sabbath-like
stillness reigned all around. The morn
ing hud very much the appearance of
a Sabbath everybody dtvssed In their
best and crowds coming and going
from the churches. The theaters were
the points of attraction for the after
noon and evening throngs. All three
houses reported record breaking busi
ness at both inanlnee and evening per
formances. BOY KILLED AT MAYFIELD,
He Was tiding to the Wood to Cut a
Christum Tree.
Charles Oskroskl, a lS-year-old boy,
was killed Christmas eve at the first
Hissing south of Maylleld station of
the Delaware and Hudson railroad by
the No. 2 southbound Saratoga express,
lie and a young brother left home a
few minutes before that to go to the
woods lor a Christmas tree. When
they came to the crossing a train of
freight cais was going by, and after
the last car passed they stepped onto
the track.
The younger brother was In the lead.
Neither of them saw the express train
coming. It does not stop lit Muyfleld.
The younger brother was almost killed,
too. The engine caught his coat and
tore a piece out of the back of it. The
other boy was in trie center of Ihe track,
and the pilot struck him and hurled
him 60 feet forward. When he was
picked up he was dead. There was a
deep rash n the back of his head and
the skull was fractured.
The case was reported to Coroner
Longstroet by Detective Martin Crip
pen, und Deputy Coroner Penny-packer

and enipuneled a jury consisting of T,

Rochester Democrat and Chronicle,
A great deiil Is said nowadays about the
embarrassment of President .McKlnley by
some action looking to the rescue of I he
brave Cubans from extermination. Those
who talk of embarrassing McKlnley seem
to assume that he will turn his back iipun
the declarations of the St. Iiuls platform
upon the Cuban question, and pursue the
peculiar foreign policy of President Cleve

MEARS
FOR FAIR VIRGINIA.
An Excellent Kouiuntie Urania Pro
duced nt the Academy of Music.
That romnntic four-act drama, "Fot
Fair Virginia." was the attruct'ou that
drew two large audiences to the Acad
emy of Music yestertiay uf tenon and
evening. The night audience was. it
course, the largest. In the afternoon
the house was comfortably tilled out at
night even standing room was itltlicuit
to obtain.
The drama was written by Uuss
Why tal, whi) Is seen in one of t:ie lead
ing roles, and the scene is laid In Vir
f.lrm during the late war. The plot
Is Interesting, is logically worked out
and unlike many dramas dealing with
the same unhappy period of the coun
tiy'p history does not depend upon a
few st-Plned situations for Its effects.
The climaxes are the natural sequ-n ees
of the story the dramatist tells and are
therefore all the more effective.
The company that osslsted Mr.
Whytal and his talented wife in de
veloping the story last night was an
excellent o:ie. When the drama was
seen here last season Mr. and Mrs.
Wiiytal appeared In the heavy roles.
Yesterday the appeared in the com
edy parts to which by nature they
seem best adapted. Lottie Hriscoe
made a decided hit In the role of Julian
Esmond, the son of a Southern Yankee.
"For Fair Virginia" will be repeated
ut the Academy this afternoon and
evening.
