A Bottle of Old Fashioned Thanksgiving at New York, Nov. 27.—"Tell me, if you cnn, what can be done to stop men from beating down values nnd making the properties worthless on which multitudes of people of modest fortunes have invested all they have? What can be done to stop strikers from tlieii violent acts by which they prevent honest men from working because they do not wish to join their unions? What can be done to prevent organized labor from stopping the Industries ot the country and forcing on employers their exaggerated and preposterous claims?" Hay-Varilla Treaty as Good as New York, Nov. 27.—President and Mrs. Roosevelt reached here at 7.20 this morning from Washington,»to attend the funeral of the former's uncle, Jpmes K. Gracle. A signflcant feature of the President's visit was the extraordinary precaution taken to guard the President from harm. Five hundred policement, mounted and afoot, md a score of plain clothes men and secret service agents were detailed to protect him. The extra precautions were warranted by the fact that the President, during the past week, had received threatening letters from cranks. While proceeding across town Drom the ferry, by way of Twentythird street, the President's carriage narrowly escaped collision with a trolley car at the junction of Twenty-third •street, Fifth avenue and Broadway. Only the promptness of the driver in pulling up his team prevented the carriage from being smashed. The President and his party were startled and resumed their drive at a slower gait. ■\nbther incident happened as the President was leaving the church, after the funeral services. A gray-haired Dld man managed to evade the 6fflcers uid stepped before the President. Handing him a letter, he said: "Please read this on the way out." The President took the letter, glanced at It and threw it to the ground. By this time the astonished detectives had grabbed the man and hustled him to police headquarters. He gave his name as Arthur T. Deming, aged 65, of 126 Storm avenue, Jersey City. Besides the letter, Doming had a tin can' This was found to contain charcoal. Deming said it was medicated charcoal and that it would cure all ills. The President left Jersey City for Washington at 12.55. The fine building of the Wilkesbarre Young Men's Christian Association was badly damaged by Are early this morning, but fortunately the greater part of that portion of the building occupied by the association itself was not touched by the flames. The principal damage was done on the ground floor. The two store rooms on the upper side of the main entrance are opcupied by Jermann's dining parlors, and these were the scene of the fire. The flameB broke out in the rear part of the dining rooms, tyid are supposed to have been due to an overheated stove, as an employe of the dining rooms had turned the draft on the kitchen stove about 4 o'clock and then returned to bed. Shortly afterward, the room was discovered to be oil fire. The two store rooms occupied by the dining parlors were completely ruined, together with all the contents. The flameB also crept Into the Joists of the second floor, and in order to" get at them it was necessary for the flremen to go to the second floor, cut holes In the floor and pour water and chemicals through the holes upon the flames. Fortunately they were successful in extinguishing the flames before they gained a foothold in the rooms on the second floor. The reading room, game room and parlor were, however, considerably damaged, and the window frames of the second floor were ruined by the flames leaping up from the store rooms. The other store rodm In the building is occupied by Maxey's drug store, but it escaped the flames. Some damage was done to the room and stock by smoke and by water that soaked through from the burning rooms on the upper side. A large number of young men occupy sleeping rooms on the upper floors of the building. On account of the smoke, they were afraid to venture down the front stairway, and the flre escape on the rear was enveloped by flames leaping out of the storerooms, with the result that the young men were obliged to make their escape through rear windows and adjoining buildings that are lower than the Y. M. C. A. building. They were badly frightened, but none of them suffered either in person or property. The loss on the building is fully covered by insurance. FURS Home and Abroad. Ratified.

We have a line of them Companion, New York, Nov. 27.—In the genuine old fashioned way New York celebrated Thanksgiving. It was a day of feasting for the poor and a day of entertaining or being entertained by those in comfortable circumstances. Washington, Nov. 27.—M. Bunau-Varilia, the minister of Panama in Washington, has just received a communication which he regards as having the value of a decree to the effect that "in view of the approbation given by the delegates, Amador and Boyd, to the Hay-Varilla treaty you are authorized to notify officially to the government of the United States'that as soon as the document Is received by the Junta of the republic of Panama it will be ratified and signed." Within Reach These words were the keynote of a strong arraignment of modern social conditions by the Rev. Dr. Morgan Dix at the Thanksgiving day services in old Trinity church. A Good Lunch, Of Every Woman In the history of the city's institutions no more generous dinners were ever provided. Charity was unbounded, and many wealthy men nnd women loosened their purse strings to provide repasts that never will be recorded. Turkey, with all the accessories, was eatan in every prison In the city. In every hospital and every public Institution.Speaking of the causes for thanksgiving, Dr. Dix said: A Good Cigar; The finest lot of them ever shown here, and never before at such low prices as we are asking. The stock includes some elegant furs, all new styles, and in different colors and lengths and sizes. "Peace is within our borders, and plenty and prosperity are the outcome of the sensons of the year. The spirit of anarchy has done no more murder in high places. The state is Becure from foreign assault and domestic disaffection. For these and countless other Instances of the divine favor and goodness we lift up hands and hearts and do give thanks. What Mortal This dispatch, which Is dated at Panama, Is signed by J. A. Arango, Tomas Arias and Manuel Esplnosa, members of the junta, and countersigned by De In Espriella, minister Of foreign affairs. The dispatch is in reply to two communications addressed to his government by Minister Bunau-Varllla, one dated Nov. 24, of Some 900 words, being a summary of the provisions of the treaty, and the other, dated Wednesday, urging immediate rati flea tion. M. Bunau-Varllfn Is, therefore, of the opinion that the dispatch he has just received constitutes a virtual ratification in view of the fact It Is signed by three members of the Junta and countersigned by the minister of foreign affairs instead of bearing only the signature of the latter, as Is the custom with ordinary communications. At the Bowery branch of the Young Mat's Christian association 500 men war* ted in relays of 100 each, all at the expense of one man who has taken a great Interest In mission work in the Bowery, but whose name was not made public. The New York Protestant Episcopal City mission, of which Bishop Potter Is president, fed more than 1,000 men and boys at God's Providence mission, in Broome street, just off the Bowery. Mrs. Potter has taken a great interest In the work of this mission. The superintendent gave away 300 basket dinners. Could Ask Prices Range From 98c up. "Still, shadows fall, and under them we add intercession to thanksgiving. What ca*ts some of those shadows? Let me answer briefly to justify what has been said: Class alienation; the insolence of wealth and the angry dincontent of the poor; the growth of luxuries, riotous living, the misuse of money and its reckless squandering on pleasure and pride; education without religion; the steady breaking up of homes by divorce and ndulterous remarriage; the appearance of vast systems of religious impostu# and their success In making converts; the spirit of gambling in every place where it can be practiced; the cold blooded assaults on private property by those who attack corporations and drug them down to bankruptcy for their own advantage in order to curich themselves by the losses which their acts bring about; the insecurity of life through contempt for the law and tbe freedom of assassins, whether sane or Insane, to wreck their will upon their innocent victims; the steady decline of womanhood from Its old Ideals and its deterioration through copying the ways and invading the sphere of men.

THANKSGIVING WEDDINGS. EVANS BROS. E IP-PRICES M. Bunau-Varllla Is greatly pleased at the rapidity with which events looking to the construction of the Panama catlal have occurred. He railed attention to the fact that on Nov. 4 the independence of Panama was declared. In the twenty-one days which have elapsed since that time Panama has been recognized ns a government de facto and a government de jure by the United States and a treaty has been negotiated and practically ratified. Wednesday afternoon Miss Mary Carlln, of Cork Lane, was united in marriage fo John Bilbow, of Browntown, in St John's R. C. church by Rev. J. B. O'Maiiey in the presence of many friends.

Delcasse, and diplomatic relations with all prominent powers having been begun through their representatives in Washington. Moreover, the finances of the new republic have been placed In the hands of J. P. Morgan & Co. and the fiscal Affairs of the young nation placed on a substantial basis. Minister Bunau-Varilla sums up the situation with an assurance that he Is acquiring "the American spirit of hustle.""These are some of the things that cast a shadow on the years. No one sees how they are to be stopped, and no one who thinks it over from a Christian standpoint can doubt that If they are not stopped the harvest will toe frightful beyond telling."

What can be done to stop strikers from tlieii violent acts by which they prevent honest men from working because they do not wish to join their unions? What can be done to prevent organized labor from stopping the Industries ot the country and forcing on employers their exaggerated and preposterous claims?" Hay-Varilla Treaty as Good as New York, Nov. 27.—President and Mrs. Roosevelt reached here at 7.20 this morning from Washington,»to attend the funeral of the former's uncle, Jpmes K. Gracle. A signflcant feature of the President's visit was the extraordinary precaution taken to guard the President from harm. Five hundred policement, mounted and afoot, md a score of plain clothes men and secret service agents were detailed to protect him. The extra precautions were warranted by the fact that the President, during the past week, had received threatening letters from cranks. While proceeding across town Drom the ferry, by way of Twentythird street, the President's carriage narrowly escaped collision with a trolley car at the junction of Twenty-third •street, Fifth avenue and Broadway. Only the promptness of the driver in pulling up his team prevented the carriage from being smashed. The President and his party were startled and resumed their drive at a slower gait. ■\nbther incident happened as the President was leaving the church, after the funeral services. A gray-haired Dld man managed to evade the 6fflcers uid stepped before the President. Handing him a letter, he said: "Please read this on the way out." The President took the letter, glanced at It and threw it to the ground. By this time the astonished detectives had grabbed the man and hustled him to police headquarters. He gave his name as Arthur T. Deming, aged 65, of 126 Storm avenue, Jersey City. Besides the letter, Doming had a tin can' This was found to contain charcoal. Deming said it was medicated charcoal and that it would cure all ills. The President left Jersey City for Washington at 12.55. The fine building of the Wilkesbarre Young Men's Christian Association was badly damaged by Are early this morning, but fortunately the greater part of that portion of the building occupied by the association itself was not touched by the flames. The principal damage was done on the ground floor. The two store rooms on the upper side of the main entrance are opcupied by Jermann's dining parlors, and these were the scene of the fire. The flameB broke out in the rear part of the dining rooms, tyid are supposed to have been due to an overheated stove, as an employe of the dining rooms had turned the draft on the kitchen stove about 4 o'clock and then returned to bed. Shortly afterward, the room was discovered to be oil fire. The two store rooms occupied by the dining parlors were completely ruined, together with all the contents. The flameB also crept Into the Joists of the second floor, and in order to" get at them it was necessary for the flremen to go to the second floor, cut holes In the floor and pour water and chemicals through the holes upon the flames. Fortunately they were successful in extinguishing the flames before they gained a foothold in the rooms on the second floor. The reading room, game room and parlor were, however, considerably damaged, and the window frames of the second floor were ruined by the flames leaping up from the store rooms. The other store rodm In the building is occupied by Maxey's drug store, but it escaped the flames. Some damage was done to the room and stock by smoke and by water that soaked through from the burning rooms on the upper side. A large number of young men occupy sleeping rooms on the upper floors of the building. On account of the smoke, they were afraid to venture down the front stairway, and the flre escape on the rear was enveloped by flames leaping out of the storerooms, with the result that the young men were obliged to make their escape through rear windows and adjoining buildings that are lower than the Y. M. C. A. building. They were badly frightened, but none of them suffered either in person or property. The loss on the building is fully covered by insurance. FURS Home and Abroad. Ratified.

We have a line of them Companion, New York, Nov. 27.—In the genuine old fashioned way New York celebrated Thanksgiving. It was a day of feasting for the poor and a day of entertaining or being entertained by those in comfortable circumstances. Washington, Nov. 27.—M. Bunau-Varilia, the minister of Panama in Washington, has just received a communication which he regards as having the value of a decree to the effect that "in view of the approbation given by the delegates, Amador and Boyd, to the Hay-Varilla treaty you are authorized to notify officially to the government of the United States'that as soon as the document Is received by the Junta of the republic of Panama it will be ratified and signed." Within Reach These words were the keynote of a strong arraignment of modern social conditions by the Rev. Dr. Morgan Dix at the Thanksgiving day services in old Trinity church. A Good Lunch, Of Every Woman In the history of the city's institutions no more generous dinners were ever provided. Charity was unbounded, and many wealthy men nnd women loosened their purse strings to provide repasts that never will be recorded. Turkey, with all the accessories, was eatan in every prison In the city. In every hospital and every public Institution.Speaking of the causes for thanksgiving, Dr. Dix said: A Good Cigar; The finest lot of them ever shown here, and never before at such low prices as we are asking. The stock includes some elegant furs, all new styles, and in different colors and lengths and sizes. "Peace is within our borders, and plenty and prosperity are the outcome of the sensons of the year. The spirit of anarchy has done no more murder in high places. The state is Becure from foreign assault and domestic disaffection. For these and countless other Instances of the divine favor and goodness we lift up hands and hearts and do give thanks. What Mortal This dispatch, which Is dated at Panama, Is signed by J. A. Arango, Tomas Arias and Manuel Esplnosa, members of the junta, and countersigned by De In Espriella, minister Of foreign affairs. The dispatch is in reply to two communications addressed to his government by Minister Bunau-Varllla, one dated Nov. 24, of Some 900 words, being a summary of the provisions of the treaty, and the other, dated Wednesday, urging immediate rati flea tion. M. Bunau-Varllfn Is, therefore, of the opinion that the dispatch he has just received constitutes a virtual ratification in view of the fact It Is signed by three members of the Junta and countersigned by the minister of foreign affairs instead of bearing only the signature of the latter, as Is the custom with ordinary communications. At the Bowery branch of the Young Mat's Christian association 500 men war* ted in relays of 100 each, all at the expense of one man who has taken a great Interest In mission work in the Bowery, but whose name was not made public. The New York Protestant Episcopal City mission, of which Bishop Potter Is president, fed more than 1,000 men and boys at God's Providence mission, in Broome street, just off the Bowery. Mrs. Potter has taken a great interest In the work of this mission. The superintendent gave away 300 basket dinners. Could Ask Prices Range From 98c up. "Still, shadows fall, and under them we add intercession to thanksgiving. What ca*ts some of those shadows? Let me answer briefly to justify what has been said: Class alienation; the insolence of wealth and the angry dincontent of the poor; the growth of luxuries, riotous living, the misuse of money and its reckless squandering on pleasure and pride; education without religion; the steady breaking up of homes by divorce and ndulterous remarriage; the appearance of vast systems of religious impostu# and their success In making converts; the spirit of gambling in every place where it can be practiced; the cold blooded assaults on private property by those who attack corporations and drug them down to bankruptcy for their own advantage in order to curich themselves by the losses which their acts bring about; the insecurity of life through contempt for the law and tbe freedom of assassins, whether sane or Insane, to wreck their will upon their innocent victims; the steady decline of womanhood from Its old Ideals and its deterioration through copying the ways and invading the sphere of men.

THANKSGIVING WEDDINGS. EVANS BROS. E IP-PRICES M. Bunau-Varllla Is greatly pleased at the rapidity with which events looking to the construction of the Panama catlal have occurred. He railed attention to the fact that on Nov. 4 the independence of Panama was declared. In the twenty-one days which have elapsed since that time Panama has been recognized ns a government de facto and a government de jure by the United States and a treaty has been negotiated and practically ratified.

Delcasse, and diplomatic relations with all prominent powers having been begun through their representatives in Washington. Moreover, the finances of the new republic have been placed In the hands of J. P. Morgan & Co. and the fiscal Affairs of the young nation placed on a substantial basis. Minister Bunau-Varilla sums up the situation with an assurance that he Is acquiring "the American spirit of hustle.""These are some of the things that cast a shadow on the years. No one sees how they are to be stopped, and no one who thinks it over from a Christian standpoint can doubt that If they are not stopped the harvest will toe frightful beyond telling."
