Today its Christmas morning; we luar no Christmas bell, But still we tell the story which once I we loved to tell? "Goodwill, " Goodwill"?we read it; ^ and "Peace," we hear the name, $ And crouch among the ruins, and ^ watch the cruel flame, 1 And hear the children crying, and ^ turn our eyes away For them there's neither bread nor 11 home this happy Christmas day. o But look! there comes a message from c far across the deep, 1 From hearts that still can pity, and a eyes that still can weep? c Oh little lips a-hunger, oh faces pale t and wan s There's somewhere, somewhere peace p on earth, somewhere goodwill c to man. I Across the waste of waters, a thou- I sand leagues away, s There's some one still remembers that f here its Christmas day, Oh God of Peace, remember, and in ^ Thy mercy keep j The hearts that still can pity, the 0 eyes that still can weep; t Amid the shame and torment, the r ruins and the graves t To theirs, the land of freedom; from ( ours, the land of slaves, c What answer can we send them? We j, can but kneel and pray? v GoN grant, God grant, to them at least a happy Christmas day. ?Mme.

Atlanta, Dec. 20.?John Todd, a risoner in the federal prison here, ins twenty more months to serve, and le may emerge to find a fortune of 110,000 dollars awaiting for him, so Atlanta detectives believe. The treasire is that stolen from a bank at Varwick, Ga., last March, and which | las never been recovered, despite th- 1 irrest of suspects. Yeggs blew the Warwick bank safe in March 5, 1914, got the $10,000 and lisappeared. Two days later John Todd, John Williams, Henry Marks ind Frank Moore, who had all kinds f explosives and ycggmen's tools on heir persons, were arrested as they tepped off a Seaboard train in Montcomery, Ala. It was shown that two if the men had boarded the train at jouvale and the other two at l.ump;in, on the preceding night. These tations are close together and not ar across the country from Warwick. The detectives believe these men ilew the safe and hid the coin. They /ere sent up for two years for brir.gng explosives from one state to anther on board a passenger train, but nree 01 tnem are accused of a train abbery and therefore Todd is likely o gain his liberty many months ahead f the others. If he knows whore 1 he oin is buried, the detectives think, io will waste no time in getting away with it. i y / ?
