The committees are hard at work, the local committee having offices in the Conservative Life building and the headquarters of the General Conference being in the Chamber of Commerce Building. Although it will be nearly three months before the big Conference session opens, the preparations for it are as full and complete as though the first meeting were to occur in two weeks. Previous meetings of this Conference, which meets but once every four years, have been held in New York and Chicago, it never having met on the Pacific Coast before. The plan now is to open the Conference with a grand concert, the date, as near as can now be determined, being May 2d. Prof. Harry Barnhart of Los Angeles is busy organizing a chorus of 700 voices, to render selections from the great oratorios on this occasion. Weekly rehearsals are being held, and the chorus will be assisted by an orchestra of sixty pieces and a number of soloists. A course of lectures—eight in number, will also be given in connection with the Conference. Those who will participate will probably be Dr. W. A. Quayle of Kansas City, Bishop Chas. H. Fowler, Rev.

The Poor Save For Months to Buy Their Christmas Pig. In Servia they keep Christmas eve in a somewhat peculiar way. The father of the family goes into the wood and cuts down a straight young oak, choosing the most perfect. that he can find. He brings it in, saying, “Good evening and a happy Christmas,” to which those present reply, “May God grant both to thee and mayest thou have riches and honor.” Then they throw over him grains of corn. Presently the young tree is planted upon mas morning, which they salute by repeated firings of a pistol. The national dish in Servia is pork. The poorest family in Servia will pinch themselves all through the year so as to have money enough to buy a pig at Christmas. Skewered to a long piece of wood, the pig is turned over a blazing fire until cooked, the guests watching the process with increasing interest. After dinner stories are told and songs sung. Santa Claus, who, in the person of an honored guest, is present to receive instead of to give presents, departs after the feast, decorated with a long ring of cakes around his neck and laden with such gifts as his friends can bestow. A French Deputy’s Pay. A French deputy receives a salary of 9,000 francs ($1,800). He also receives free railway transportation and free luncheons at the bar of the Palais Bourbon, where many a lawmaker spends more time than he does in the Salle des Seances. Some are accused of taking all their meals at the free lunch counter.

The defences in the Straits are being strengthened. This actien is due to England’s threat that it would make a naval demonstration off Constantinople should the Turks permit the Rassian Black Sea fleet to paes through the Dardanelles. If there is one thing more abhorrent than another in Tarkish eyesitis an English fleet riding the Bosphosus. Of all the losses through the destraction of the Wisconsin State capital by fire the most pathetic was that of the Grand Army of the Republic room and its contents.

In spite of all these privileges, there have been many complaints that, unless he has a large personal income, a deputy cannot live decently. Therefore many members of parliament when they are not well to do have to make up for the insufficiency of their pay by contributing to newspapers or pleading in the courts.—Century. . Look Higher.

The Poor Save For Months to Buy Their Christmas Pig. In Servia they keep Christmas eve in a somewhat peculiar way. The father of the family goes into the wood and cuts down a straight young oak, choosing the most perfect. that he can find. He brings it in, saying, “Good evening and a happy Christmas,” to which those present reply, “May God grant both to thee and mayest thou have riches and honor.” Then they throw over him grains of corn. Presently the young tree is planted upon mas morning, which they salute by repeated firings of a pistol. The national dish in Servia is pork. The poorest family in Servia will pinch themselves all through the year so as to have money enough to buy a pig at Christmas. Skewered to a long piece of wood, the pig is turned over a blazing fire until cooked, the guests watching the process with increasing interest. After dinner stories are told and songs sung. Santa Claus, who, in the person of an honored guest, is present to receive instead of to give presents, departs after the feast, decorated with a long ring of cakes around his neck and laden with such gifts as his friends can bestow. A French Deputy’s Pay. A French deputy receives a salary of 9,000 francs ($1,800). He also receives free railway transportation and free luncheons at the bar of the Palais Bourbon, where many a lawmaker spends more time than he does in the Salle des Seances. Some are accused of taking all their meals at the free lunch counter.

The defences in the Straits are being strengthened. This actien is due to England’s threat that it would make a naval demonstration off Constantinople should the Turks permit the Rassian Black Sea fleet to paes through the Dardanelles. If there is one thing more abhorrent than another in Tarkish eyesitis an English fleet riding the Bosphosus. Of all the losses through the destraction of the Wisconsin State capital by fire the most pathetic was that of the Grand Army of the Republic room and its contents.
