Washington, D. C.. Deo. 27, dS98.?'There appears,
from present indications, to be no long
er any doubt of the final ratification of the
treaty of pence. Senators and reprsenta.il ves
who are tn Washington during the Chrlsmas
f~ holidays are convinced that the opposition to ,
the policy of territorial expansion will not go
?o f?r as to cause senators to vote against the .
ratification of the treaty. Any opposition 1
that may develop to annexation of outlaying
territory will in all probability be postponed '
until after the treaty has been finally ratified,
and will probably develope when thequrs- ?
tlon of a new form of government for the
Island comes before congress for considera.
tlon. The opposition will urge a form of self *
government lor the Cubans and the Philip 1
pine islands, an far as Is consistent.
Senator McLaurln, who returned from t
, . Charleston on Saturday in company with
Senator Hoar, of Massncbuesetts, and also
Senator Martin, of Virginia, both express the
opinion that the treaiy will not be rejected,
although neither senator will definitely slate
bis position, or what coarse lie will personal- i

tb6 president will send the treaty to
the senate soon after resasembUng It will .
be at oDce referred to the commit- '
' toe od foreign relations, and the I
committee will devote a waek or more to Its ,
consideration, after which It will be reported
back to the senate. The senators do nut like
to discuss the treaty pending Its consideration
by tbe senate, as It will be considered, <
doubtless, in executive session, and It would (
- be improper for them to go into details in advance.
> Senator Tillman Is quoted as being in (
opposition to ratification, but It is thought '
Senator McLaurln will vote to ratify the *
treaty.
Senator Tillman 1* much Interested in the

mittee on naval affairs and has paid considerable
attention to tbe subject. An effort will ,
be made to get tbe bill before tbe house during
the first two wceas after the Christmas i
holidays, and It Is hoped that a day will be ]
granted by the committee on rules. Senator
t Tillman and other friends of tbe bill In the
' senate will make an effort to get the measure 1
through the sennte If the house pauses it. 1
Mr. James Baker, who went to Charleston
With Senator Hoar and Senator McLaurln,
bas returned to Washington. For the past
six years be has beeu assistant librarian ol .
| the United Slates senate, and Is popular with
all of the senators and others who come in 1
j contact with him, or who have business at
' the library, He is a uatlve South Carolinian.
wblctf perhaps accounts for bis efficiency and
courtesy, which be always displays. He is ;
highly regarded by both Republican and Democratic
senators and whatever changes
may occured in the senate, when the body
ooroeB under the control of the Republican
party two years from now, the general hope
Is expressed that Mr. Baker may be retained
and ft Is thought tbat be will be.

Cuttings from the Niagara vines suitable <

Pecan tresB one year old, which Is the most
suitable age to set out will be sold at three
:ents each, pecan nuts will be sold at fifteen
:entsa pound, they ure the flue Texas grown
iuts. The vines and trees can be set out
my time between the 1st of November acid
LhL of April, If they are set before spring It Is
>est. The winter and spring rains cause the
ilrt to settle firmly around the roots and
when warm weather comes they begin to 1
jrow nicely and It Is rarely a vine or tre?>
lies, the nuts can be planted up to May 15th,
aut If planted In Spring they must be soaked
:en days before planting. The pecans will
row in any section along the Seaboard Air
Line and the nuts command a good price.
\u acre set to pecans will return a revenue
burtlmeB wbut an acre set to cotton will

than a hickory nut tree- They can be .
set In the woods and will do well if a spac?
en feet square is cleared of trees and brush,
rney can be set In old worn out and abandon*
3d fields if a hole three feot square and two
feet deep is dug and filled with rich dirt from
he woods, and in planting the old worn out
le'ds in peoans we are enhancing the value
>f the lauds to at least twenty dollars an acre ,
n four years. If the trees are properly cared
'or in lour years they will be fine thrift trees
ind a farm in pecans four years old can be
Aadiiv sold for twenty five to fltty dollars an j
icre. It ooly requires about thirty trees to
in acre and at three cents a tree the cost
would only be ninety cents- Three hundred
:reesataco8t of nine dollars will set ten ac es.
Persons desiring to secure vines and
trees must arrange to purchase them through
their nearest S. A. L., Station or Industrial
Agent. Trees and vines will not be sold to
?ny one at the price named unless an Indusrial
or Station Agt. guarantees that tbey are
to be planted on land that is tributary to the
Seaboard Air Line. That is on land.owned
>y persons who do business at some polntR on

The silence of the solemn mid
night, centuries ago, was broken bj
angles chanting over the birth of a
barb, "Glory to Grod in the highest
and on earth peace, good-will tc
men." Now Christendom pauses
in its industries, that it may commemorate
the nativity of that
babe, the son of a Jewish peasant
girl.
It does well. Many who observ<
Christmas Day have not hailec
Him as Master; but on believer anc
unngnever nas laiien tho benedic
lion of His life. Whatever of contrast
there is in politics, aocioty
religion, between the first century
and the nineteenth, is due to the
advent of that Jewish peasant.
Paganism left man as it found
him. Christianity has elevated
him. Alone of all religions it has
met the cravings of Ihe humar
heart. When He whoso birth
Christmas celebrates, came intc
the world, all men, save the Jews,
were without God and withoul
hope. He revealten into them
God the Father, and tho power oi
endless life.
Mjgnt had been consecrated as
ight; cruelty as law, an^d selfish
oess as a principle. The Jewish
peasant taught men "so to pray
that to the fatherhood of God thej
should link tho brotherhood of man
and thus learn justice, mercy and
love. These 'seem elementary
truths to Christendom, but to tho
Pagan world they were the darkest
of unsolved problems.
Then the tendency was to barburism;
now through Christianity a
sustained moral progress is possible
to nations. And whatever of ad
pance tnere nas Deen curing toe
nineteen centuries, in a benificenl
civilization, is but the expression oi
that^^pulsive and impulsive life
whicV ^Christ breathed into the
world,
Pagaeism knew nothing of those
political dogmas on which the new
civilization is founded, the quality
of men the saprcdness of human
rights. They arc trite words now
Why? Because the religion ol
Christ has emphasized the equality
af all men before tbo Father. In
lias taught that thero is no man ec
iegraded but that to hira may come
the right and the power to become
x son of God.
No Pagan roligion held out a
band to woman, But the Nazarene
snforced the fact that, to use the
}utint thought of Matthew Henry,
she had not been taken from his
feet, to bo beneath, him, nor from
his head, to be above nim, but from
his side, to be his companion. A
woman bethed the Saviour's?feet,
fitting -homage to Him who enthroned
her beside man.
That the world might not become
pandemonium, heathenism made it
a penal colony, in which there was
no law but force, no code save that
of blood, Christianity has trans
formed tbe prison into the school oi
reform. It was modulated force bj
right, and tempered justice with
mercy. Compare tho criminal code
of Christendom with that of Pagac
Homo, and it will bo seen how the
Son of Mary has cast out devils.
Labor, education, philanthropy
international law, ana morals
would, if we had the space enable
us to make still more vivid tho eon
trust between this Christmas, and
that whose dawning the angel;
ehanted.

, Once, when I was a schoolboy, goa
ing home for the holidays, I had a
o long way to go to reach the far-away
little town in which I dwelt. I arrived
at Bristol, and got on board the
n steamer with just enough money to
pay my fare; and, tl^t being settled, I
thought in my innocence that I had
n paid for everything in the way of
.. meals. I had what I wanted as long
' as we were in; smooth water. Then
came the rough Atlantic, and the
y need of nothing more.
I had been lying in my bertffc, for
e hours, wretchedly ill, and pait caring
t for anything, when there came the
steward and stood beside me.
y "Your bill, sir," said be, holding out
d a piece of paper.
. "I have no money," said I, in my
u wretchedness.
"Then I shall keep your luggage.
What is your name and address?"*
10 I told him.
fnnV nff the pan he
iUStaiilJJ JJV bVVA VU wmw v?|i
wore, with the gilt band about it, and
ti held out his hand. "I should like to
ie shake hands with with you," he said.
I gave him my hand, and shook his
e as well as I could.
1] Then came the explanation?how
. that some years before some little
ll kindness had been shown bis mother>
by my father in the sorrow of her widII
owhood. "X never thought the chance
" would come for me to repay it." he
>n said pleasantly, "but I am glad it
. has."
18 "So am I," said I.
>u As soon as I got ashore I told my
father what had happened.
"Ah," said he, see how a bit of
ts kindness lives! Now he has passed it
on to you. Remember, if you meet
'mn anybody that needs a friendly hand
oi you must pass uuu iu bucm.
v Years bad gone by. I had grown
^ up and quite forgotten it all, until one
;b day I had gone to the station of one of
our main lines. I was just going to
' take my ticket, when I saw a little lad
st crying, a thorough gentleman he was,
e trying to keep back the troublesome
tears as he pleaded with the booking
3e clerk.
id "What is the matter, my lad?" I
asked.
7e "If you please, fir, I haven't money
ill enough to pay my fare. I have all
but a few pence, and I tell the clerk if
30 be will trust me, I will be sure to pay
d, him."
s j Instantly it flashed upon me the for'
gotten story of long ago. Here, then,
or was my chance to pass it on. I gave
jf him the sum needed, and then got into
the carriage with him. Then I tola
Id the little fellow the 6tory of long ago
n_ aDd of the steward's kindness to me
"Now, to day," I said, "I pass it on
3a to you, and remember, if you meet
jn with any one who needs a kindly
hand you must pass it on to them."
ur ''I will, sir, I will," cried tne lad, a9
he he took my hand, and his eyes flashed
with eurnestnes;".
