Cazys Dizauskas, who, although they have passed less than a week in Washington, have counted some exceedingly pleasant ex- perences. The charge succeeds Dr. Valdemaras Carnekis, who was re- called to Kaunas, the present capital of the Lithuanfan republic, in the early autumn, and will, after serving for a few months in the foreign office, be sent to represent his country in London. Mr. Bizauskas and his young wife have for the last fifteen months been living in Rome, where the for- mer was fn charge of the delicate and important negotiations which the Baic republic has been conducting with all the allles engaged against the central powers in the late world wdr. Their youngest child, a pretty infant of about six months, Alda, was born in the Italian capital. The oth- er ‘small daughter, Drema, is two years old and, like her parents, is a native of central Lithuania.

The Lithuanians, who were the last f the European races to embrace the “hristian religion, follow a different rite from the usual Roman Catholic and their celebration of Christmas and the New Year takes on a most in- teresting phase. As no church of the Lithuanlan rite exists this side of New York, the legation has its own chaplain, a_young ecclesiastical stu- dent from Vilna, who is making his higher studies at the Catholic Uni- versity. A solemn service will occur at daybreak in the legation at F and 20th streets for the members of the diplomatic_household and the eve of the great feast as well as the day it- self will be marked by an observance of all the national customs. But the little ghrl Drema will mingle with the smaller youngsters of the corps and will no ‘doubt have an exciting | time. —_— Isaac Trip., eighty years of . has won for the second time the title of champlon sharpshooter of Fort William, Canada.
