Baroness Bonde, whose diary has been

Baroness Bonde, whose diary has been published recently, wrote the following account of the abdication of Louis Philippe of France on the day of that remarkable occurrence: "An aide-de- camp of the minister of war, who was . in the kings cabinet when he abdcated, gave me detailed account of this most signal piece of cowardice. He had re- viewed the troops in Carrousel on horse back, highly rouged, when cry was raised: .'Voici les Faubourgs!" No one had any orders;' no one gave any. The mob rushed forward shouting 'Vive la garde nationales!' 'Vivent les troupesn and shook hands with the outposts. The king retreated precipitately with his sons and a subieutenant of the na- tional guard rushed alone into the pal ace asking to see him. He was admitted and in the greatest agitation said: Your majesty must abdicate.' Very well," says the king, in favor of my grand son. NO, unconditionally,' says the young and self-elected mouthpiece of public opinion. Would you believe it? Of all who were congregated around the royal person Piscatory alone said: Go down and head your troops; fight for your crown and your dynasty!' He was everruled and they all marched out of the palace except the Duchesse dor leans, her children and the Due de Me- mours."

Many years ago the statisticians of the Pension office made careful calcula- tions to show the number of survivors of the War of the Rebellion for a series of years. They used as the basis of their calculations the mortality tables of the insurance companies, but were far out of the way. The old soldiers are dying off more rapidly than was ex- pected. According to the estimate, the total number of survivors in 1902 should have been 93O3SO, while the pension rolls show only 725,10O. To the latter number should be added 2 or per cent to cover those who have never applied for pensions.

CHRISTMAS THOUGHTS
As Presented by Rev. W. F, Dickernan at the Church of the Messiah.

As Presented by Rev. W. F. Dickermar
 at the Church of the Messiah.
 Tn the Church of the Messiah Sunday morning Christmas services were i'm pressive and inspiring. The church was appropriately decorated, and the choir, directed by Frank Coxeter, rem dered excellent music. The pastor, Rev. w. F. Dickerrnan, presented most &C., ceptably thoughts suggested by 'The Festival of Gladness, Peace and Good Will" He remarked that the day cele. brated the birth of one of the most un- successful men the world had ever known, judged by it's standard of suc- cess. Yet, after nearly 1000 years, we have not realized the Christmas ex- pectation as taught by this Child of Bethlehem.
 Attention was first called to the 'gla6 tidings of great joy" an announcement universally extended to all people, with many of whom life is one continuous battle, and little of joy has been real- ized beyond the announcement. The world needs frequent assurances oi such joy and gladness.
 Concerning the Christmas creed, there was an earnest plea for higher con- ception and practice of the peace sen- timent embodied therein. There was noted the marked inconsistency of those who claim allegiance to the teach. ings of Jesus, yet advocate and practice cruel and warlike methods for material extension.
 Finally, the Christmas sentiment Good will to mem was declared to be universal, and more to be desired than the bestowal of material gifts. This includes forgiving spirit, it's need and possibility lying within the universal heart Its exercise was eloquently pre- sented as one of the most gracious gifts to mankind.
 All who listened to the Christmas Carol, as recited by Roscoe Reeves in the evening, enjoyed rare treat. Il was faithfully and impressively render. ed, and proved happy termination oi the Christmas service .~> ..s:'> .'.. -t.
