And in Mexico, among the poems, nearly
all of the children look like accidents,
which came to the parents as Affections,
as additional burdens to bear through
their sombre journey of life, lamented
for the coming; and whose entire pre-

poverty, sadness and hopelessness, can

People who accomplish things in this
world are those who were wanted in
this world, by waiting, loving and am
bilious fathers and mothers. There are
few such among the lower classes of
Mexico. The two things left to them
by the Spaniards are the Cathedral and
the bull ring, or plaza. Anything which
is bad the Mexicans inherited, anything
that is good among them has been
acquired as against the inexorable laws

THE BROKEN VASE.

What fallen! Crushed! The graceful form
Broken, ruined! Thereit lies.
Alas! What though it was but small an
frail,
loved it. We all will prize,
Will make US shrines Of trifling things
That come on drifts Of fortunes tide
To store among the hearts best gifts
Some thoughts Of pleasure that abide.
Such wealth of beauty decked this vase
Above its curving, leaflike top
Each year the short-lived roses hung,
And let their leaves Of crimson drop
To mark the fight Of summer days;
There lilies rose like whitesouled maids
And pansies called for touch Of lips
Upon their purple, velvet shades
Throughout the great, wide-spreading earth
With all its mighty space,
Was there no spot for ruins touch
Except the cherished little place
Where stood this slender, fragile form
Which now lies shatteredP Scattered DER
The rugs dark surface, cleaning like
Mosaics on the polished floor,
Are its fragments, all alight
With q tint Of sunset hue,
Worthless as are blighted joys
Or baffied hopes, o'ercast by rue
To lie downtrodden in the dust
OF time, in ashes strewn by sorrows hand,
While hearts, perplexed, see visions pale
And, grieving, fail to understand.

ONLY ONCE.

Will the readers of The Conservative
bear with the editor "for once" if a
personal experience involving the break
ing of the Sabbath into smithereens is
submitted for their perusal? On Feb.
ruary 9th, 1902, it being Sunday, we
were detained in the ancient Spanish
city of Chihuahua, while enroute to
the City of Mexico. This important
mart of the Mexican Republic was
founded in 1889, by Diego de Ybarra.
The name is pronounced Che-wow-wa,
and it means "a place where things are
made"
Piety in Variety.
Early in the morning the aisles of the
church of San Francisco were thronged
with devout worshipers. The edifice is
elaborately and extravagantly orna-
mented. It glows in those barbaric
colorings, and resplendent gildings
which have been so dear to the Moorish
and Spanish eyes in all ages. It's con-
struction began in 1717, and it's COM
pletion was in 1889. It has been con-
stantly in use, and numbers thousands
of communicates who believe, as their
ancestors of three hundred years ago
believed, having abated nothing, and
added nothing to their declaration Of
creed. But from the Cathedral services
to the high betting Of the cockpit, the
devotees of the former make only q
hop-skip-and-jump. And their zeal at
the Cathedral is more than equalled by
their enthusiasm at the cockpit. It
happened that on Sunday, February 8,
1909, the closing contests of cooking

1t is now in order to forbid the selling
of lard unless it be wrapped, branded
and colored in manner that will
distinguish it from oleomargarine. AS
every pound of farmers butter which
reaches the eastern market from the
west, has to be worked over and
colored to make it marketable, per-
haps it would be we'll to color it

order to distinguish it from the real

and Chihuahua-which was made of
forty-one fights-came off, and so our
party saw the deciding battles, five in
number, between very game roosters.
The stake fought for by the two states
was $4,000 Mexican money. The
side betting amounted to many thou
sands of dollars. We saw single bets of
$1,000, dozens of bets at from fifty to
five hundred dollars, and the money all
in sight, and all promptly paid over as
battles were lost and won.
Chihuahua seemed to have the best
| birds or the best luck, and the main was
won for that city and state. There
were about one thousand spectators,
and the interest, and exhilarated bet-
tingness of the crowd, surpassed, in ac-
centuated mania for gambling, anything
ever dreamed of by the sporting gentle
men of the United States. A Durango
plutocrat, the owner of rich and very
productive mine, proposed another
cooking main between the two states
for one million of dollars Whether the
cheapness of Mexican currency, as to
its purchasing power, has any influence
upon the gambling conditions Of the
people, it is difficult to determine. We
have changed United States one dollar

dollars of our money you receive two

The Breed.
The race is bred as by brutes, and
without any forethought as to the kind

And in climate almost tropical, where

Paris, May 2l.-Much apprehension
was caused in this city during the
morning by the receipt Of the following
dispatch from st. Thomas. D. w. l.:
Heavy detonations have been heard
from the southeast (the direction in
which Martinique lics), surprising
those of May l."
SO far, however, no official news has
been received indicating that new
disaster has befallen Martinique.
A Fort-de- France dispatch says:
"a severe inundation at Basse Pointe.
at 2 o'clock in the morning swept away
twenty houses, and fifty other build
ings were damaged by the flowing
mud, which has swept over the Vallee
de la Riviere VALLEY of the River.
There was no further loss of life, Basse
Pointe having been evacuated several
days ago.

There will be funeral service on

disinfectants are needed.
"The refugees at Fort-de-F France are

Governor Lhuerre cables to the min

France as follows:
The distribution of food is proceed

is much touched by the solicitude of
