Cliristsnas Day ia at lmud and tho jnvcnllo
breast Is swelled with great expectations.
For wcoks they havo beon looking forward
to tho night which Santa Clause selects for
crawling down tho chlniucy to All tho hang
ing stocklnga with proscuts, and that night
will conio when to-day passes Into oarxness.
Although tho financial condition 01 tho
people In this siction of tho coal field as a
whole Is by no moans such as to admit tho
observance of tho gieatost of all holidays In
tho "regular old fashioned way," yet It is
qulto evident that a largo number of families
expect to have a merry Christmas. It
is not an exaggeration to say that hundreds
of men wero seen wending their ways home
ward last night with livoand dressed turkeys
ovor their shoulders. This Is a great turkey
year. Tho dealers say they never wero so
plentiful and they aro finding a demand.
The many turkoy wheels In tie town havo
been doing a big business this week and no
doubt will bo kept busy to night. A turkey
wheel is a great Invention. A man will kick
like a mule when a dealer asks him 1! cents
a pound for a turkoy, but will spend three or
four dollars at a wheel before getting one and
then go homo jubilant because ho beat (7)
the wheelmen out of a five-pound fowl.
To morrow being a day of rtst the people
will havo aruplo time to ponder over a pro-
rum for Christmas. For entertainment and
amusement ilioy need not worry themselves.
Others have already given that attention.
There aro tho Ivorltios they havo arranged
for a grand eisteddfod which will begin in
the morning and last all day. A grand con
cert will follow in tho evening. Tho eistedd
fod will bo held in Forguson's theatre.
Several grand competitions will tako place,
and tho prizes will rango from $5 to $150 in
cash,
In Bobbins' opera house amusement will
also bo found. Tho Columbia IIoso Company
opened a grand fair there last night and will
continue it until January 3rd. 'Tho Grant
Band gives a concert every night. Tho hall
Is elaborately decorated and the numerous

VERY VIOLENT AT TIMES.

Mrs. Nclitmn, of Ashland Inquiry lleliif;
Made,
Last night a strange woman created much
oxcltoment among tho business pcoplo of
Main stroet. Sho visited all tho stores and
saloons along tho street and represented her
self as ono of tho collectors for tho Columbia
Ho8o Company's fair. Peoplo who doubted
tho truth of her statements woro subjocted to
abuse and many pcoplo wero badly frightonod
by tho woman's conduct.
At times tho stranger becamo violent and
sho smashed panes of glass at sovoral places.
In Shoolor's restaurant sho knocked ovor
tables and chairs and wanted to fight with
ovorybody who approached her. At Elijah
Kehlcr's sho seized a uumbor of washboards
and llirew thorn into the street and at Womcr's
sho upset several barkeU of fruit and vege
tables.
At first, when it was bolievod tho woman
was intoxicated, there was great indignation,
but when it became apparent that tho
woman's acts wero not due to drink, tho
wrath turned into pity.
Chief of Polico O'llma found the woman
in a Follslrsaloon on Wost Coal stiect. Sho
rccolvcd tho chiof very cordially and upon
his invitation to tako a walk took hold of
his arm and started oil' as if sho wero invited
to go to some placo of pleasure
Aftorboing placed iu the lockup tho woman
said she was Mrs. Neimun and resided at Ash
land. Sho said she was tho daughter of
Christ Roth, of that town. During her con
finement iu tholockup to day tho woman was
almo3t continuously singing. When any one
other than tho Chief of Polico would ap
proach her she would fly into a passion.
Chief O'Hara went to Ashland this aftor-
noon to Inquire if the woman's statements as
to her relationship are correct and bco what
her friends wish to do with hor.
