Reversing the Waual order of things, the moral is given at the beginning of the story, Moral: Don't push Santa Claus off the water- wagon, On the pay-roll of the Volunteers of America the particular Santa Claus who figures as the hero of this ante-Christ- mas episode is written down as Michael Dowdell, Time was when Michael was Prone to listen expectantly to the music of the starter smiting the bung, and to play @ solo with the neck of a bottie on ts rim of a glass. But the burning eloquence of a Vol- unteer street corner evangelist awitched bim to the path of grace, He dis- carded rum and excluded mixed ale from his system, Bo earnest was he in the work of regenerating the wioked that he was given a red flannel shirt, & set of white whiskers and @ obimney and posted as an understudy for Ganta Claus in the Circle at Fifty-ninth street and Broadway, His duties were simple, All he had to do was stand beside the chimney, pound Pavement with bis numbed feet, amite his chest with his hands and implore passersby to contribute to the Christmas dinner fund of the Vol- unteers of America, His hours were Teasonable for such easy work—7 A. M to 10 P.M. Along Comes the Tempter, Michael went on duty at 7 o'clock to-day. Scarce had he placed his chim- ney Im position and made ready for the grist of pennies when there emerged from the Subway station the Tempter. A word of descripiion as to the Temp- ter. He wore evening clothes under a big furlined overcoat and hie eyes re- sembled the vieual apparatus of a her- ring, His walk was un y and the way he kept his plug hat on his head caused the mind of Michael Dowdell to revert back to the tales he had heart of the days of miracles, “Helty, Sannyclaus,” murmured the Tempter, approaching the shivering Dowdell. "Yer beatin’ yerself to death. Donchaknow you ain't due till next Saturday night. Well, iMersanythin' I Uke ite @ hussler,’’ Saying which he stuffed @ dollar bill Into the chimney. Michael Dowdell volced his thanks profusely, The Temp- ter skated in a circle for a minute and focussed his Iflamed glance upon the gilded sign of a stloon acrom the street "Come onan’ have a@ ball,’ he com- manded. “Yer face looks like a dill pickle, Yer freesin’ to death, Come on an’ have @ ball,” Tt is due to Michael Dowdell to say of him that he made valiant resistance Every time he resisted a chill wlod struck through bis flannel sult and frapped the marrow in his bones, There was the dollar bill in the chimney— truly @ good start for the day, What harm— Alas, the Tempter Won, Well, anyhow, Michael Dowdell, tn his red flannel sult, white whiskers and bulwark of ganctity, accompanied the Tempter to the saloon, carrying the chimney under his arm, The frat drink waa the undoing of Michael, It tasted like more, Eventually the Tempter but Michael Dowdell re- mained, lashed to the bar, 80 to speak, and spending the dollar bill {n ten-cent installments. When he became convinced that he was really Sania Clous and insisied on | taking bottles of firewater for presea- tation t the poor the bartender called Policeman Doetzer, who took him and Hy that time Michael was waxing elo- quent. He Insieied upon exhorting the court-room from the bridge and Magia- trate Moss condemned him to five days 4. A shocked and grieved pr of the Volunteers of America stripped Michael of his re@ flannel! suit, bis false whiskers and his chimney, and for the remainder of the day there waa another Santa Claus on watch in the Circle, So COTTON FALLS AWAY AFTER A GOOD START, Higher cables steadied cotton in the Opening market dealings to-day and prices showed an advance of from 1 to 5 pointe.
