lively Campaign in Mexico.

That there is restlessness in the Dor
Ger states of Mexico against the meth
'ods adopted by the government to pro-
mote peaceful campaign for the
presidency has for some time been ap-
parent. The enforced subsistence of
an anti-Diaz candidate when the cam
pa1gn was opened by no means quieted
the opposition. The political exiles in
Yueatan have created a diversion cal
culated to draw heavily on the military
force, while the insurgents on the
Arizona frontier, at the other eXtremi-
ty of the country. are proceeding to
develop miIitancy.- Meanwhile one Ma
dcro of Nuevo Leon, which lies in be-
tween, formally announces his candi :
dacy for the presidency, calls upon the
administration for physical protection
in making his canvass and is prompt

the anti-Diaz faction to tumultuOus
demonstrations all along the Bio

Southern hospitality is proverbiaIly
generous In The Old Dominion Mr.
Thomas Nelson Page recounts an in
stance showing that this hospitality
was not always appreciated. A guest
asked the loan of a horse to carry him
to his next stopping-place, a town
which lay at a considerable distance.
The host accordingly lent him his
horse, and sent along negro boy
it was before the war-to bring the
horse back.
After several days the boy was still
missing, and some one was sent to
hunt him up. The messenger found
him at last, and demanded why he
had not returned with the horse
cause dat gent'man done sell de
horse" was the reply.
We'll. why didn't you come back
and say so?"
Hi, He done sell me, too" said
the boy.-Youtn Companion.

Upon a glass of 1zA
Along about ten thirty
She needs some solid fare
And goes with Grace or Gerti@
To purchase anseclair.
At twelve on pie she lunches
And through the afternoon
From time to time she munchea
A dainty macaroon.
Her pocketbook shs'll piilage
At dusk, and gaily trudge
To purchase in the village
ingredients for fudge.
At night, with loosened tresses.

To cook up awful messes
Upon a chafing dish.

And all the house is dumb,
She goes to bed still chewing
Her little wad of gum.

THE FIRE IN THE GnArn.

l.
Grandpa's chair Is vacant
Near the fire in the CRATE
Where he told his tales OF boyhood--
Kept the little ones awake;
One eve, worn and weary
sleeping on his knee they lay,
Death called that night-like the IRE
bright
Grandpa. passed away.
CHORUS.
So let tho room be cheerful
Place the Old armchair
Where we talked to Grandpa,
How he'd watch the failing ashes
And sadly mediate,
Gently sigh, we all must die,
Like the IRE in the CRATE.
II.
One bitter night, in winter
The snow fell fast and wild,
A girl looked in the window
A careworn, hapless child;
Then Grandpa whispered. baby"
And toddled to the gate
To save from sin he brought her in
Near the fire in the crate.
III.
'Tis chauty's bright flame,
Reminding of the evening
The orphan Mary came,
So ragged. cold and hungry,
With Grandpa from the gate;
For him she kneels, a pray'r she yields,
Near the fire in the CRATE.

LET US HAVE PEACE

April, half a century after the deatl
knell Of slavery and state rights were
proclaimed over the embattled walls
of Sumpter.
1t might be possible to get together
1000 men from the north and south
that we're thrilled by the news from
Bull Run, and joined in the mighty
struggle that followed. These aged
veterans with Theodore Roosevelt
leading could march short distance
and dedicate a spot Of ground upon
which to erect monument to the
glory and honor Of American soldiers
under "Glory to God in the highest,
and on earth peace, good will toward
mem
From that crowning glory Of broth
erly love Theodore Roosevelt could,
like a messenger from on high, ap-
proach successfully the old world
rulers and say to them that war is no
longer necessary TO crafty the whimS
of passion or butcher million human
beings to appease commercial greed,
or crush the weak to enrich the I'M
godly. Universal peace must come.
1t will soon be impossible for any
nation to arm against the inventive
brain of man. Let the United States,
the Grand Army of the Republic and
Theodore Roosevelt extend the in
vitatiOn, but let the remnant of the
grandest army of freemen that ever
marched raise the banner of love in
Washington.
" neither a world peace comes soon
or not, let the heroes of the blue and
the gray unite in a grand jubilee
celebration at Washington in April
1911, and thus lay the foundation for
a great peace monument in memory
of American soldiers who died that
the nation might live and endure
fire tested through the centuries,
and if the immortal Lincoln was
living he would march between the
blue and the gray and praise God for
the spirit of brotherly love.
General Wolgemuth, past depart
ment commander, says the day has
come for final blue-gray peace jubi-
lee rally under the leadership of
Theodore Roosevelt. lie expects to
raise the question at the ,Watertown
Encampment this month and wants
the veterans from all states now resi-
dents Of this state to start the jubilee
program, and in the language OF that
great Commander: LET Us Have
Peace"
