Christmas eve is an hour of rejoicing and merry making wherever the Chris- tian religion is known, It has comedown through the ages, and, instead of the in- torest in this oocasion diminishing, it is constantly on the increase and probably will be so until the end of time. With this glad Christmas tide came the tokens of love given byone dear friend to anotker, and this example set by the wisemen, as they lavished their gifts of frankincense and myrrh upon the Babe in the manger, is likewise closely followed, and many a heart is caused to leap with joy as the tears of thanksgiving course down the cheeks, as a little mess- enger of love is received from dear ones far away. Monday night was aseason of rejoicing in this city, such as has never before been equalled. The good citizens of this place have been abundantly blessed in the year which is past and goueand never before have they been so able to bestow gifts upon their loved ones as now and right well they have improved the opportunity, as is proven by the enormous amount of holiday goods which have been bought and sold in this city during the past month. Year by year the quality of Christmas gifts improve and instead of light, trashy stuff, which has been sold in such large quantities in former years, more substantial articles were substituted. To be sure there are more or less of these toys sold each year, and always will be so long as there are children, for what would Christmas be to the six-year-old without the little jump- ing jack or the toy whistle, or the tin team-boat or locomotive engme. These things arve just as essential to complete the happiness of the child, as aro air and water essential to the life of man. Inhundreds of housesin Omaha Monday night there was such rejoicing as is only had upon Christmas eve. There, in one corner of the parlor, stood the beautiful ) Christmas tree trimmed with long strings of pop corn and tinsel, while myriads of waxen tapers added a dazzling brilliancy to the scene. 1n addition to these, the tree was loaded with presents for the various members of the family, and the whole presented a scene which made the children fairly shout for joy as the doors were thrown openand they were per- mitted togaze upon the beautiful objects, and not alone the children, but the older ones who had been instrumental in bfinginil\wut this state of things, were carried back to their childhood days, and they entered into the merry-making with a zest which they would not have believed they were ca- pable of. If there is any- thing which truly rejoices the heart of the parent, it is to be able to bring joy and happiness to the hearts of the dear little ones, for whose existence they are responsible, and many a heart was made happy in this way last night. A Dk re- porter was perm d to attend one of theselittle fami fflathoringe Monday night and speaks with every assurance of the joy which is derived from such a scene. As we left the house and wandered up and down the streots, we passed many homes wherein like festivities were in rogross, and before somo of the bril- }inm.ly ghted windows we stood lost in thought and our mind wandered from he gay and festive scene to the lowly ot or the hovel .were the lavish hand never bestows its gifts, but it was too sad & contrast and we shook ourselves from the lethargy and drifted away like a weed before the wind in search of an- other item, As we wandered along we came in front of the FIRST PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH, and from within came the sound of me; voices and the glad notes of song as if inviting us to enter, We obeyed the summons, and walking up the steps pushed the I door upon its hinges, and stood looking upon a most happy scene, The church was a) proprinusy trimmed, and in the front part s [3 largo Christmas tree. The children were all jubilant and each one of them was Pruontud with a little pail of candy. The seérvices were both interesting and instrucuve, TRINITY OATHEDEAL.

X' merry, and Christmas day was ushered in with” tie tinkling of thick-bottomed glas CHRISTMAS DAY. Beautiful Weather and an Unusur gy Quaiet Time — Amusements of the Day. Wo doubt if thure hasever boena time, not for many years at least, when Christmas duy was as mild and ploasant as was yesterday. Instead of the bleak and chilling blasts of December, the clear sky and balmy breezes of spring were here, and, as we listened, we fan- cied we could almost hear the song of the robin or the chirp of the cricket. ‘‘How little it seems like Christmas,” was the remark on every side—and how, true it was. The word Christmas indicates the merry jingle of sleigh-bells and the happy sleighing party, and a Christmas without snow 18 like a Fourth of July without fire-crackers. This may, in a measure, account for the quietness of the day in this city. The places of business were all closed early in the day, and the streets pre- sented more of a Sunday appearance than of a holiday. There was nothing in particular to at- tract the attention of the |]mblic. and the people wandered listlessly about the streets during the forenoon, with no ap- parent object in view. After the Christmas dinners had been disposed of, however, the numbers of people upon the streets increased, and they wore going up and down, some to visit friends and some to other places. AT THE MATINEE, Boyd's opera house was well filled in the afternoon with people to witness the production of *“Lispet, the Tomboy,” by the Leonard Grover Comedy cnmj)any. The company were very well raceived, and some parts of the play were well rendered and called forth hearty apjlause. The same play was given in the evening. AT THE ROLLER RINK, In the afternoon the attendance was not so large, but in the evening a large crowd assembled to witness the exhibi- tion sl g by Prof. Daniels and Master Bert Blias, a ten year old from Des Moines, Jowa, Together they did some very fine work and the little shaver is certainly a wonder on wheels. Ho is as gracoful and active as can be and will doubtless be the prince of roller skating in a few years, After the double exhibition, Prof. Daniels delighted his many admirers by an exhibition of his skill, It is needless to say that it was immense. Good music was in attendance and everybody had a most excellent time. Under the management of Mr. Daniels, the roller rink is becoming a most favor- ite rerort for male and female, both young and old. TRINITY CATHEDRAL Appropriate Christmas services were held in Trinity Cathedral yesterday fore noon and evening. The music prepared for the occasion was most excellent. The church was beautifully trimmed and dec- orated for the occasion. THE SOUTH M, E, CHURCH The Sunday school of the South Omaha M E. church, gave their entertainment at their church, corner of Tenth and Pierce street, last night. The Christmas tree was a large one, and was fairly loaded down with presents for the little ones. Ger. 0. O. Howard delivered a very fine address to the little ones, which was anxiously listened to. Mr. G. W, Tib- bals had charge of the singing, which was good, The little ones enjoyed themselves hugely. AT THY BAPTIST CHURCH, The Christmas festival for the Sunday school of the Baptist church. was held last evening and was a thoroughly enjoy- able aflair, The entertainment consisted of recitations, dialogues, solos, duets and choruses by the children, and these were well eclected and well rendered. The room was handsomely decorated with flags, the most attractive foature being, of course, the Christmas tree, well laden with handsome presents for the children. The appearance of Santa Claus, who dis- tributed the presents, assisted by six lit- tle fairies, was the c'osing and most at- tractive feature of the evening., The houro was ked with people, many being ohligcl]p:oc tand the entire evening, FIRST M, 'K, CHURCH. At the First M. E. church a large crowd of children and grown people gathered last evening. A Christmas tree was the feature of the evening, but mem- bers of the Sunday achool contributed to the evening's enjoyment by recitations, song, ete. It was a joyous occasion and every one was happy. " AT THE CATHOLIC CATHEDRAL e survices were as usual grand and m- pressive, gh mass was celebrated at five in the morning by the pastor, Rev. Fr. O'Connor. The church was thronged. The main altar was beautifully decorated with natural and artificial flowers, and lit up by dozeus of tapers. Above all the illuminated star to'd the story of the birth of the Saviour as plainly as columns of print. The side altars were profusely decked with flowers and burning tape: the latter in the form of the letter *‘M” and a heart, Pontifical high mass was celebrated by Rt. Rov. hop O'Counor, with a corps of assistants, beginning at 106:30.

The bank was about eleven feet high, and the men had dug under it for a dis- tance of eighteen inches, when it caved in upon them, The falling dirt caught Forrest upon the legs and buried him nearly up to his h He was immodiately extricated and moved to his residence. only a few doors distant, where he died about 4 o’clock. The coroner was notified and immedi- ately empaneled a jury, who upon hear- ing the evidence, state that they found that the diseased came to his death by a mass of carth falling upon him at the place above mentioned. It is the prevailing opinion that a Iarge chunk of dirt must have fallen upon him in such a manner as to have injured him internally. He was about 37 years of age and leaves a wife to mourn his loss. His funeral will take place to-morrow. il Messrs, Guild & Meclnnis, the 16th stroet dry goods merchants, extend to the public their cordial thanks for the large patronage conferred upon them during the holidays.

Do this long before you intend leaving, so that you can forger about it and have to ask it all over again the day you decide to go, Romember, too, that one of the most admired guests in any house is the one who is always ringing for ice-water and wling because the towels are not on d at exactly the minute he takes his bath.
