An Emperor Disappears.

Such was the effect of the strange
happenings of May and June that the
poise of all Europe seemed trembling
and unstable. Men who in all their
lives had respected law and society
began to question the value OF com
munal authority, when even the most
carefully reared power proved unable
to protect itself against what appeared
to be only one invention. Taxation
had created government, which in turn
had devised armies and navies and ex
pended more and more money In thell
equipment. 1t had now been demon

new force, some one engine OF destruc

Mexico went to the gold basis In

for her rich silver mines. In fact. she
is by far the greatest silver producing
country in the world. Her output OF
gold has also been considerable,
though she ranks low in that respect
as compared with the United States
and several other nations. But she
may do better from now on. 1t Is an
nounced that the richest placer gold
fields ever found there have been dis
