History has few more brilliant records
than that that tells of the march of Coftes
to Mexico by way of the republic of Tlas-
Gala. This republic, through the pleading
OF Malintz, became an ally Of Cortes, and
his band Of few score was increased BY a
Splendid fighting force Of over 20, 600 men.
Nentezuma lad planned to destroy the
white men when they reached the noun
tain curtain that walls in the valley of the
capital to the east, but he changed his
mind when he learned that Cortcs had the
men Of Tlascala OF his back and the forces
OF Zempoala in reserve.
1t would take q book, and one with
greater possibilities Of dramatic interest
and thrilling description. could not be
written, to outline the brilliant exploits
and Incompatible judgment of Malintz.
She fled from Mexico q slave. She re-
turned to DO received as an equal Of the

Through her all negotiat;yns were car

stroy Cortes was averted, and to her wis
dom and daring that historic might of

victory.
Malintz avenged the death of her father
by the overthrow of the Aztec empire and
tho cruel death of its able ruler. Not even

THE NEW PREACHER,

The new woman is no longer to OCCUPY
| tho center of the stage in this age of ad-
| varccd scnsationalism-not II the now
preacher can edge his way to the front.
The new preacher has been displaying
himself in many new and startling pos
lures within the past few weeks.
There is the Rev. $. Miller Hageman of
Brooklyn, who illustrated the parable of
tho ten virgins in his church the other
| evening. Five young women, clad in
white and bearing vestal lamps that were
trimmed and burning, marched out of the
vestry singing "Behoid, the bridegroom
| cometh. These young women, who were
all blends, represented the wise virgins,
who were ready when the bridegroom
came. When the five had finished their
song, five brunettes came out with.
out any lamps. They sang song, the
burden Of which was n plea to enter where
the bridegroom was. When their piea was
denied by tho five wise virgins, the blond
virgins and the brunette virgins, the wiso
and the foolish, got together and marched
back into the vcstry room, greatly to the
IediicGtion of the awestricken congreaa-
ton.
Rev. Hageman's well meant efforts arc
weak compared with the pious pryotechnics
of Rev. Syndicate Wilson, an evangelist
who invited attention to his meeting at
Gal!ipolis, O., by q brass band and the
booming of anvils. Bonfires werc built
around tho church, and every time a sim
Ecr announced his change of heart

Wilson declares that ne will convert every

fireworks.

has made unique bid for notoricty. Rev.
Winchester is manager of Columbia park,
pleasure resort near Middletown, and he
announces that no women will BIO admit
