A HAPPY FUIILY.
On Christmas eve no happier family
In the. city gatheied aiound Its spaik
ling tite than that In the Home. Old
and young were alike enchanted with
their gifts, and nnu deal little girl, te
ceutly lescued from honlble sunound
lng.s, actually piled for joy at the
thought of a Christmas ttee It was
something she had never expected to
have. Could the Christmas donors have
'witnessed the Joy their offeilngH gave
they would have felt themselves rich
ly rewarded. Early in the jear a fam
ily of several children hud been brought
us vvhosu existence it could scarcely
be called life beggared description.
Their mother dead, left to their own
devices, their clothing a few filthy rags,
their bed tho eaitheii floor, nu old lamp
doing duty for both flic and light,
their food of the scantiest and most
revolting description, it was almost in
credible that finch conditions could ex
ist In a civilized community. The In
fluences of a ChiUtlan home have
worked wonders, and tho transforma
tion Is marvelous At the head of the
Joyous little procession on tho Christ
mas eve matched the youngest of theso
children, solemnly and carefully car
rying It his arms a doll. He took his
position directly In front of ithe tree,
and after a prolonged gaze, laid his
roll down under tho protecting
branches, then folding his Httlo hands
he rocked to and fro In pure delight,
utterly absorbed In tho radiant vision
t!uut tilled his soul. His eyes glowed,
his breath carae shore and quick, For
long time he said nothing; then, as
i fleeting manager went by with both
Powder
hands full he caught her dress and
said, with u gaep, an he pointed at a
trinket on tho 'tree: "Oh Missus!
Won't you give mo dat little fiddle?"
"Are you Rolng to say your jirnyers
tho same tonight?" Inquired one viva
cious spit It at bed time. "I'm not
I'm going to thank Ood four my Christ
mas piesents, and because we're going
to have tutkey tomorrow." Ah, the
poor little denied lives, the stunted
conscience, the dense ignoiance, the
Pitiful canes that tho Home's foster
ing care receives Very quickly, In
most Instances, comes the response to
kind, gentle treatment and mild, but
firm discipline, such ns most of our
chniges have never known. Some one
recently passing n gioup of the chil
dien oveihentd the conclusion of the
whole matte! . Said one learned lit
tle person "Ood mnde all of us, but
we've got to mind Mrs Walker." To
which, after due reflection, the ehoiun
assented. "That's so," Their attach
ment lei the matron Is pleasant to wit
ness, and she Is quoted as hlRh authoi
Ity Not long ago vwien tho boys' dor
mitory was full ot happy childien pre
pailng for their nights test, It was
suggested that they tun a race to see
who coul.l first get to bed Presently,
from a little white nest, came a elation
voice, "lni in bed first. I've beaten
everybody, oven Ood" "No jou
haven't,' was the rejoinder from some
one of superior knowledge. "Ood nev
er goes to bed; he never sleeps. Mrs.
Walker says so," which was an un
answerable nigument McfitthoiouKh
y Is the comfort of tlie old lnules looked
aftei. llltthday gifts and dalntv teas
fall to their lot, and the sunshine of
loving care brightens the itw light of
their lives Do we need a motto for
the new joai'.' "The greatest of thc-e
Is love''" Do ve require an Incentive'
"Inasmuch as ye have done It unto one
of the least of these my biethren, ye
have done It unto me " As we take
up the burden, not knowing what the
future has in store lor us to each one
would be bring Keble's vvoids:
"Then ciieeiily to vour work again
With hearts run braced and set
To lun. untlred love's lilessi d race"

Rev. Dr. Logan made an addiess,
containing leminiscences of the jeais
In which he had been Interested In the
Home. He said that theie aie no
fiiendless people heie In this commun

tian vvmk in this city und its envlion
nient. The splilt which emanates fiom
It Is of even greater value than the
actual aid given the needy.
Rev. Richard Hloins followed with a
beautiful tribute to the work and to
it he tender affection existing between

13. If anybody ever had any doubt as
to the sentiments of the membeis or
the Thirteenth on the question of be
ing mtlPteretl out, thev would soon be
definitely settled, if he had heard the
yells of delight which went up from
all jiarts of the cump. Wednesday
night, when a lather jiremnttiro state
ment was read In the Augusta papers
to the effect that the regiments of the
Second army coi ps.whleh were to leave
the seivlce, would be mustered out at
the enmps in which they tire now es
tablished. This at first wan misunder
stood, nnd the leport was snt afloat
that, ns a matter of fact, tho entire
corps would be mustered out. It was
then that pandemonium reigned, and
the boys showed with what delight
they would hall the news of their being
mustered out.
Theie ure nlioady npparentlv well
founded tumois of approaching changes
going the rounds. The tucmbeii? of the
Flist Man land are positive that Gov
ernor Lowndes, of their state, will
eventually succeed In inducing the war
depaitment to muster them out and It
Is confidently hoped, on the lepresen-
tatlons of their congressmen, that thu
men of the Fifteenth Mlnnesotu will
be at home with their families before
the middle of March. If these expected
changes should take place, both bil
gadeci, and, In fact, the division and
the corps, would bo pietty well bioken
up; and It Is not Improbable that they
would huve a direct bearing on the
prospects of the Thli teenth. They are
now looked forvvnrd to with more than
usual Interest.
CHANCE Or WEATHER.
After a long term of tho most de
lightful weather, there has come a
change nt last. For the past twenty
four bouts It has been mining hard
and all outdoor mill tai y exercises have
been suspended. Little, or no, Incon
venience has been enured by this
change, except to those on fatigue or
on guntd. The wind blew part of the
tar jiaper off the ioof of C Company's
mess hall, and the rain came tluough
to such an extent that the men had to
quit the jilace, and eat their meals in
their tents once more. The membeis
of Company E, which has returned
from provost duty, have had to sus
pend work on their mess hall, as they
had only the meie framework elected
when the downpour set in
Lieutenant Elanchard, of the hojil
tal corps, has peifonned another very
successful operation for an abscess
this time on Private Mnitin Howiey,
of C Company, who recently returned
fiom a long sick fui lough. Dr. lllanc li
nn! feels elated over the success of the
operation, but not any happier than
the long-sufteiing patient, who has
been sick plnce the middle of last Aug
ust. Pilvate Howiey Is a highly es
teemed member of his company, nnd
his many trlends will be glad to know
that since Joining the leglment heie,
he lias Improved much in health, and
will soon be as stiong ns ever and able
to attend to bis tegular duties.
Pilvate Lnn Adams, of A, is In the
leglmental hospital, suffeilng from
some slight wounds lecently sustained
while engaged in foot ball practice. He
fell und spinlned the ankle of his light
loot. The Injur, while painful. Is In
no way seilous It Is now being tie.it
ed dally, and It Is expected that Pri
vate Adams will be all light in less
than a week.
