IT, the prudent conduct of the courts and
the authorities of the State OF Chihuahua

formed, did not insist upon its demands,
which gave rise to this transient diff
guilty."
THE SILVER QUESTION.
Regarding the silver question, the
President thinks 1t futile for Mexico to
endeaVor to do more than await the prog
Tess of events and urges renewed atten-
ton to agriculture.
The President states that arrangements
have been made regarding a railway
across the Isthmus Of Tehuantepec, which

great work.
He speaks of his deep interest in pri-

IP L. S.-A very interesting enter
tainment was held by the Young Peo-
pies Literary Society last night, in the
lecture room of the Presbyterian Church.
There were several readings, debate
and other literary features. One of the
most interesting features of the musical
portion of the program was, however, a
cornet solo by Mr., Stevens, one of the
talent of the young people, and has en-
abled those once reticent of speaking in
public, now to speak with ease and
iiuency. The society is non-sectarian and
commends itself to all the young people
interested in the cultivation of their men
tai faculties.
