most skillful combination of anodynes and

1t is safe to say that Mrs. Kate Douglas
Wiggin is one of the most popular Amer-
can writer's. Her stories of child life,
1.-THE Birds Christmas Carroll and 1.-The
Story of Patsy" particularly, have been
very widely read. These two stories have
reached a greater number of editions than
any other recent American fiction. The
secret of their popularity is that they APP
peal strongly to tn e good sense, the sym
pathies and susce ptibilities of the reader.
They play in a very forceful and whole
some manner upon the fundamental emo
lions of human nature: the mothers love
for her child, sympathy with the unfortu-
nate, and the combined humor and pathos
of child experience. OF "Timothy S Quest
the "London Tines said, 1.-THE tale is
told with a rare combination of feeling
and humor. By this felicitous sketch
Mrs. Wiggin has firmly established her
literary reputation. OF "The Birds
Christmas Carol" which has sold we'll
into its second hundred thousand, the
''New York Evening POST remarked .
zone could hardly imagine how it would
be possible to write sweeter story"
Having achieved such remarkable sue
cess, it is not strange that Mrs. Wiggin
should attempt larger book, more
elaborate and ambitious piece of fiction.
This she has done, and the book now
completed, has been secured by the cat

Mexico" and it was grand and well
attended. This Don Agustin IturbiLe
was a great Spanish official, but he
turned to the revolutionists and was
the first practically to overthrow the
Spanish rule. The soldiers proclaimed
him emperor of Mexico as Agustin
/. and he assumed the title in 1921,
but ten months after matters got so
hot for him that he resigned. Con-
gress would not accept his resignation
as it never recognized his election,
but in regard to his services agreed
to allow him $4,000 per year if he
resigned, as he proposed in Italy. He
went to Italy-Leghorn-and stayed
there until 1924, but then, on the adj
vice of Mexican friends, he returned
to Mexico to attempt again to resume
his sway as emperor. He landed in
disguise in July, 1924, but was soon
afterward recognized and arrested by
Republicans as a traitor to the Re-
public of Mexico. He had drum
head court martial" almost of the
lynch law type, and was refused an
appeal to the supreme pOwer-for he
was taken out and shot, July 10, 1924,
and that settled the appeal question.
His remains lie in the chapel where
the mass was celebrated. The ill
fated Macmillan, emperor of Mexico,
who suffered the same fate forty
three years later, had an exalted
opinion of the Iturbides, and being
childless, named an Iturbide as his
successor when in the zenith of his
power. But the Republicans then, as
now hold the reins Of power.
Among the residents of this city is
Miss Fannie Schiller, daughter of the
estimable proprietor of the famous
Vienna restaurant The family some
time ago resided on Eagar street, in
San Antonio, and Miss Fannie Schil-
Ter was pupil in the city's Garden
street school. Miss Hoebgen was prin-
cipal and Miss Kate lyman was her
teacher. She speaks of these in the
kindest way and of other dear friends.
Recently she celebrated her sixteenth |
birthday at her fathers residence, on |
Gale San Juan Letran, and it was one |
Of those whole-souled German cele |

the recipient of many presents, floral
tributes and good wishes. Some even

celebration is conducted by the state.
All public buildings are decorated
with the national flags and ocolors
draped in mourning, the flags being
at half mast. At eight o'clock "a great
procession was formed and, headed
by brass band, marched to the pla.
zuela de San Fernando, near which
Juarez is entombed. Many represen.
tative societies and bodies Were In
| the procession and carried wreaths
and other floral emblems TO be laid
, ON Juarez' great mausoleum. Among
these was the Mexico v Cuba. the
Mexican supporters Of the Cuban in.
surrectionist. These carried an i'm
mense floral Lone Star with Cuban
StFeamers. At the request of the
chief of police, who feared the Span
iards would resent the Cuban colors,
they were removed during the pro-
cession, but at Juarez' tomb the col
Urs were again added and the floral
emblem in it's entirety was handed
10 one of Juarez' daughters, who
placed it in a conspicuous position in
her fathers mausoleum.
In the plazuela de San Fernando,
niausoleum of JuareZ, was erected a
handsome spacious stand On this
the president Diaz) sat i'm state, sup
ported by his cabinet, many other Of
ficeGs of state, leading citizens and
governors of surrounding states.
Here orations and complimentary
poems to the dead man were deliv-
cred, sandwiched with approved mu-
sic. This done visit to the ceme-
terry was made. 1t was appropriately
decorated. The main thing was pic
ture iaEseIled Juarez. 1t was not very
artistic, but very expressive. 1t

But she stands triumphant and ON the
one hand there are emblems Of the
church thrown like dirt on the ground
and the other hand the regal and i'm
perial trappsngs in the same way laid
in the dust.
Flowers, large, costly and innumer-
able. were then placed on Juarez's
grave until the whole looked like h
flower garden. These were often laid
with a quiet solemnity that was pray
er-like in action AT noon all formal
was over but many fingered
long around Juarez's mausoleum Civ
ing it all the honor of revered saint.
But there was still another ceremony
in connection with the day. Juarez
was a Free Mason, like President
Diaz and at 10 o'clock at night Free |
Masons in their regalia, headed by |
bands marched to the cemetery and |
there did funeral honors to the dead |
in accordance with their Masonic rit- |
lal, and complimentary orations were |
delivered 1t was a strange, weird, |
mystic sight and was done in the view

It was midnight ere the march back

and in the regular ball room, dancers
gaily skipped the festive toe to de-
lightful French and Mexican music
'Ilhe walks outside and galleries were
reserved for spectators who did not
dance. Usually the building is lighted
by arc and incandescent lights, but ON
this occasion the light came from myr-
lads of candles in massive chandeliers
adding much to the grandeur of the
scene.
Prominently displayed was a tri-
color decorated board ON which
blazed the word "Patrie," in red,
White and blue incandescent lights.
The toilets of the ladies, many of
whom were beautiful in face and
form, were most elaborate and ele-
CANT and their magnificent display of
jewelry would have delighted the eye
of a Shy1eck. Gentlemen were in uni

proudly bore honors that they are en-

a grand one, such as rarely equalled
