According to these monks, the Wise men were three great kings called Caspar, Me[choir and Bal­ thasar. Caspar' was the ddest -and from tlie north.

The huge six foot Santa Claus wets busy cracking Jokea na he waddled about and took down the gifts from the Christmas tree. In the .middle of one of his sto- riea there entered flnothCLMg.,fat-5aHj_ fa Claim, carrying a colossal basket full of bread, and behind him were three or four negroes, also carrying baskets of bread, One of the Shrlnor committeemen at once inferred that some one had cent a gift of bread to ba distributed and signed a receipt for jthe 15(1 loaves. In a few minutes they were handed around to tho heads of families, and ho additional smile of Christmas Joy went around with them. When the festivities were nearly over and the crowd had begun to dis­ perse a man came running in and ask­ ed: “Did you get 150 loaves of bread?’ “We did.” waa the reply. “What did you do with it? ’ “Gave it away,” “Well, that was an order from the Caito!l Institute. It came here by mistake.' But it is all right. We are glad you gave it awuy, and If you need more let ua know,” atul the man went away, evidently fully oatlsfied with the Incident.—New York Times.
