Holiday weather marked not only Christmas Day
proper but ye?terday ns well, when the Christmas
celebrations of a secular character for the most
part took place. Business was suspended very gen?
erally throughout the city. All the exchanges, the
bank? and all Urge business houses were closed for
lhe day. and the streets of the downtown business
section and Lie shopping district took on an aspect
of Sabbath serenity.
The fine weather brought out crowds of people In
the uptown avenues. Bicyclists especially were
quick to recognise the worth of the ?lay for their
particular purposes, and the Boulevard and. In
Brooklyn the Coney island Cycle Path were
thronged with more wheelmen than have been eeen
nt.road since the cold weather set in. On the Si>eed
wjy ,-.nadtedS of horsemen spent the day in holding
the ribbon? over their pet flyers. The theatres did
a brisker business than on any two days of last
?cek the worst theatrical week of all the year.
The principal features of the day were the numer?
ous dinners given by the charitably inclined to
t.'ioee who are seldom able to dine well except at
B.'mebojy else? expense.
Communier Booth-Tucker thought that the Sal?
vati? u Army of the I'nited 8tates supplied, as the
agen; of charitable people, Christ ma? dinner? to
about one hundred thousand persons. In this city
the Army entertained about two thousand guests at
the National Headquarters, In West Fourteenth
Bt., while "basket dinners" were supplied to about
ten thousand families In various parta of the city.
At the West Kourteentii-st headquarters the ofil
cers uf the Army donned white apron? and acted
as waiters the better part of the day, and there
were turkey, roaat beef, vegetables, fruit, tea and
coffee for all who applied In the assembly hall
there were musle and speeches by Commander ,
Booth-Tucker and his wife
l'art of the day ?'as ?pent by the Commander and
Ms staff In an inspection of the city posts of the
Army. The party travelled In a tally-ho. and
r ?sited the headquarters of the flowery Corps, the ?
Woman's Shelter, at No. 243 Bowery, and the post j
at No, ? Chali y St., In this city, and the post at
Concord and Fulton sts , Brooklyn, where two
tiicu?and five hundred children had dinner.
ATTACKED IN DIVVER'S WARD.
When the tally-ho waa passing through Madison- !
?t . e.t Oliver-st?. a crowd of ruffian? was met and
the Salvation Army party was bombarded with
\olleys of old shoes, tin cans, potatoes, an-lent
bananas and antique cabbages. All the old-time
heelers In "Paddy" DIvv?'r's ward seemed to loin
in the assault, which continued briskly without
lateiTUpttoa from the police until the Cherry-st.
post of the Army was reached. Several of the peo?
ple on the tally-ho were struck by the missiles, but
nobody was hurt.
