CHARITY--FOR DOGS AND CATS.
I
HRISTMAS is nearly here—Christmas, the day of
good will and peace among men. It is, well to remember that there is not good cheer for all, even in
times of the greatest prosperity. Let the world be
ever so bright, there is always sickness and sorrow and suffering in it. The.glad anticipation of the coming good time,
so‘near at hand, gives point to this story from Chicago: .
“While the Thanksgivving dinner of turkey and trimmings was being prepared for the seventy fortunate inmates
of the Chicago Home for Friendless Dogs and Cats, last
Thursday, an unfortunate father, Charles F. Maloney, of 559
South State street, was trudging through the South division,
carrying his diphtheria-stricken two-year-old daughter, in
search of some asylum, home or place where she could be
taken in and cared for. Refused admittance at hospital and
dispensary, one after another, he finally reached a police
station, whence he was directed to the health department,
but the child died before he reached the Commissioner’s
office.”
In that great city; on Thanksgiving Day, there was*a
haven for friendless dogs and cats, but noshelter or relief for
a dying child. Worthless animals were housed and warmed
aud fed by what is called charity, but this sick chiid, like
the Son of Man, had nowhere to lay her head, and her young
life went out while her stricken father was tramping the
streets vainly seeking relief. The incident carries its lesson. It is a lesson that none should forget, especially at
this season when the very festival we are to celebrate commemorates the commandment ‘Love ye one another.”
The mass of people are neither heartless nor cruel, but
they are thoughtless and selfish. Poverty and disease and
wretchedness are not pleasant sights to. see, and people
turn aside from them to lavish their gifts and generous
impulses on those not in need. The lady ties a ribbon
around the neck of her dog that would make some poor
girl happy. The poor relation is given cast off clothing or
some cheap trinket while the wealthy neighbor’ is remem=bered with jewels and silks or rare books and pictures.
The world is snobbish as well as selfish. Even the
rich toady to each other on God’s holiday, and mutually
bespatter each other with presents and prasses, while the
poor and friendless are neglected and forgotten.
Yet Christ was born in.a manger and drew his associates—the Apestles of the Christian faith—from the
lowly and the ignorant such simple folk as could not on
the Saviour’s birthday find pewroom’ in many a fashionable church of a big city—God save the mark! The Christian charity that provides shelter and food for dogs and cats
and lets the poor of humankind die in the streets is found
in the Devil’s scripture.
Christmas and Him in whose name is celebrated.
The poultry raisers of Sonoma held
a convention at Petalama. last week
and decided toagain ask the Legislature to establish an experimental station in their county. Attention was
called to the tmportancs of the indnstry in that part of the State and it was
shown that in Petaluma and its immediate vicinity there were nearly a
million bead of poultry, The Sonoma
men consider that they are entitled to
such a station, agricultara) stations
being established in other parts of the
State to investigate and help less important industries. Few people are
aware of the magnitude of the poultry
business that has been gradually developing in Sonoma county within the
past few years.

Reciprocity Treaty.
President Palma of Cuba expects to
have the reciprocity treaty with the
United States signed and ready to send
to this country within a day or two.
Then after it bas been confirmed by
the United States Senate, he will ask
the Cuban Senate to. act favorably
upon it. It is not likely that it will
go through thé United States Senate
without a herd fight, for there are too
many interests affected by the proposed tariff reductions.

BRITISH AND GERMAN
FLEETS SEE WABSE
Lonpon, December 10—A dispatch from Caracas says
that the combined fleets of the Germans and British today siezed the Venezuelan fleet consisting of four warships at
La Guirre Harbor. An ultimatum will be delivered tomortow asking for compliance with the demands of the British
and German Ministers. All German and British subjects
here were arrested today. :
President Castro says the Venezuelan Government has
not received an ultimatum from either country and claims
that as none have been presented Venezuela consequently
has never refused to settle them. “Great Britain’s action,”
he says, “is without justification as we can not decide foreign
claims before the revolution is crushed. We intend to enforce our rights.” Diplomatic representatives of Germany
and Great Britain left Caracas without awaiting the Venezuelan reply. . ms
WASHINGTON, Dec. 1o— Secretary Hay today brought
before President Roosevelt and his Cabinet the latest phases
of the Venezuela situation, which is expected to become even
more acute.
Minister Bowen cabled the State Department that the
German and British Governments requested him to take
charge of their affairs and.extend protection to their subjects
The request will be granted.
The State Department has full knowledge of the intentions of the British and German governments, having been
sounded in advance.
Lonpon, Dec. 1o—In the House of Commons, under the
head of foreign affairs, Secretary Cranborne said that the
Government had no official information of the seizure of Brit.
ish subjects in Venezuela or the seizure of Venezuelan w ar
ships by the British*German fleet.
Lonpon, December 1o—The Admiralty has received information of the seizure of the Venezuelan gunboat Bolivar at
Port Au Spain.
