Panama, March IS. The interna-

par.mant of Cauca has in no way i'm
proved and would appear to be ap-
preaching a crisis.
The election to the presidency of
Colombia of Gen. Rafael Reyes is de-
clared in some quarters to be the only
thing that can possibly prevent a
movement for Cauca to secede from
the United States of Colombia. and if
Jeroquin Vaiez is elected instead of
Reyes, it is asserted that revolution
surely will break out.
The Bogota government is fully de-
termined to hold Cauca and is send

town in Cauca. Passengers who have

Butte, Mont, March Is. - Reports

Of damage done by high water from
the Yellowstone. At Miles City the
Ice in the Tongue river broke up this
week and gorged where it empties into
the Yellowstone, four miles above
Miles City. The river overflowed its
banks and the entire residence portion
of the town is flooded. Dynamite is
being used to break up the blockade,
but so far the attempt has been un-
successful. At Glendive the ice has
piled up short distance above the
new steel bridge crossing the Yellow
stone, and fears are entertained that
when the mass breaks it will carry the

completed last fall.

Because Of Shows Crust.
Two Harbors, Mimi, March 13.-It
is reported by timber cruisers who
have been in the woods to the north
that, owing to the crust on the snow,
wolves are slaughtering deer as never
before. During the winter the snow
remained dry and light. In this con.
dition the deer could run in it better
than the wolves, but now, after the re-
cent thaw, a crust has been formed
over it, thereby giving the wolves the
advantage. The wolves run lightly
while the hoofs of the deer strike
through to the ground, and when
wolf goes after deer the result of the
chase is certain.

heart of all:
Oh. mothers in homes that are
happy,
Where Christmas comes laden
with cheer,
Where the children are dreaming
already
Of the merriest day of the year.
As you gather your darllngs
around you
And tell them the "story OF
DID,"
Remember the homes that are
dreary!
Remember the hearts that are
cold!
And thanking the love that has
lowered you
With all that is dearest and
best,
Give freely, that from your abun-
dance
Some bare little life may be
blessed!
Oh. 60 where the stockings hang
empty,
Where Christmas is naught but
a name,
And give-for the love of the
Christ child!
Twas to seek such as these that
He came.
