TnE position of the great war secretary
in history is fixed in spite of friend or Zoe;
neither vituperation nor eulogy can alter
the record of the iron pen, and it is a
waste of time to reopen in congress a dis
cussion which never rightly belonged
there. Representative Wheeler is chi fly
to blame for his ill-timed attack, in viola
ton OF the dictates of judgment and pro
priety, and has made a monumental ass of
himself in the matter.

A Little Boston maiden, - years Of
age, has been much exercised over eth
ical and religious problems during tn,
past winter. She was at first n Theos-
ophist, but when the Lenten services
at Trinity began it seemed to her that
the responsibility OF the family de
manded that some one should occupy
their pew in the church and as nobody
else seemed likely to do so she gravely
hetook herself to the afternoon meetings
and became much inclined toward the
faith inculcated by Mr.. Brooks. There
Is a good deal of it that is like theoso-
ply she assured me, -and l think per
haps it's better to go with your own peo-
pie instead Of with folks that live as far
oh as India, so ! can't quite tell whether
I'd better be a Theosophist or not. DO

Interesting Information About the Yaquis
Mode of Warfare.
The Yaquis do not want to nave local
self-government, but they absolutely re-
fuse to obey the laws OF Mexico and to
recognize the sovereignty of the Mexican
governmet. This Indian tribe numbers
about 1000 people, who live in the dis
trict between the Yaqui and Mayo rivers.
Their territory is divided into eight town
ships, of which Belem, Tiron, Palanm.
Rebeira are the leading ones. Each
town is governed by a patriarch, elected
for life, and these patriarchs in turn elect
a generalissimo, or chief. likewise for
life.
The chief of the Yaquis enjoys abso-
lutte power over the property and even
the life of the members of the tribe, and
his will is checked by no law. He is en-
titled to one-fourth of all the crops raised
on Yaqui territory, and can take all the
land and even personal property he may
want. besides. The present chief makes
full use of his power. He is about 40
years old, is married, and has n
daughter. In cattle and real estate he is
now worth about 1926, 900, but his re-

der, usually most violent after nightfdl.
are among the cheerful manifestations of
neuralgia; 1t is an affection OF the nerve
