THE KINGDOM OF THE MEEK.
BY PRISCILLA LEoSARy.

BY PRISCILLA LEoNARu.
Kings choose their soldiers from the strong
and sound,
And hurl them forth to battle at COM
mand.
Across the centuries, DER sea and land,
Age after age, the shouts of war resound;
Yet, at the end, the whole wide world
around,
Each empty empire once so proudly
planned,
NIets through Times fingers like the
dropping sand.
But once, King-despised, forsaken,
crowned
Only with thorns-chose in the face of loss
Earth poor, her weak, her outcast; gave
them love,
And sent them forth to conquer in His
name,
The world that crucifed Him, and pro.
claim
His empire. Lol pride's vanished thrones
above,
Behold the enduring banner of the Cross!

nothing for the law, but only for the

the bluff and sweep toward the track
He set the airbrakes. and shouting to
the fireman to jump, made his way to

loose from the rest Of the train and the
cars, brought to stop by the brakes,
were left safely standing on the track.

Mexican Rebels Desire Uncle

Ell Paso, Dec. s8.-Jose Sanchez AL
varez, former prominent mine and land
owner at Parral, Mexico, now a lieuten-
ant colonel in the insurrectionary army
in Mexico, while here talked readily of
the trouble il Mexico and did not mind
having his name used
''Of course we don't know whether we
will win,'' he said. But any of us pre-
fer to die rather than to lose. You are
not getting the truth out of Mexico, nor
have you any idea of what is going on.
We have between 1000 and 5000 men in
arms all through Chihuahua They are
the same kind of men Of which the
rural police are made, good fighting
men.
Politically we want the Americans
to know that we believe them our
friends, and the action Of our troops
will bear out that statement. If the
United States would promise to over
see fair election as it did in Cuba
we would throw down our arms at
once.
THAT is all we want We could take
the city of Chihuahua if we wanted it,
but we could not hold it long at pres
ent.
ALSO we could tie up the National
railways but we don't want to do that
either. While it is called the National
railway, it is owned by Americans, and
we don't want any Americans helping
the Mexican government"
1t is now stated that there are at
least 1900 Mexican federal troops in the
state of Chihuahua, taking the field
against the insurgents in the noun
tains. Reports came over the railroad
wires today that a thousand men had
been sent out from Torreon to the
southwest to form a junction with the
troops marching from Chihuahua on to
MADEIRA and Temosachic.

Mass Meeting Called by Mayor
Becomes a Mob.
OVERPOWERS POLICE
Smash the Rolling Stock as Fast
as 1t Comes Along.
Disturbance Results in the In
jury of Is Men.
OVERPOWERS POLICE

Toronto. Ont, Dec. "a riot here,
remarkable for its spontaneity and for
Its fierceness while it lasted, resulted
IL the injury of Is men, the complets
wrecking of IL street cars and the
shattering of the windows in over 100
more. For two hours a, mob of several
thousand persons surged back and
forth on the principal business thor
oughfares, demohshing every street
car that came within reach and COM
pletely tying up traffic.
The diSorderly scenes followed a mass
meeting held at Massey hall Two
weeks ago the Toronto street railway
installed pay-as-you-enter cars on the
principal car lines. Much dissatisfac-
tion developed over the innovation. 1t
was claimed that the cars were not
adapted to that kind of service.
Protests in writing and by personal
appeal became so numerous that Mayor
Geary and the board of control decided
to hold a public mass meeting, at which
the matter could be discussed. Repre-
sentatives of the street railway also
were invited to attend.
The meeting resolved itself into a
series of fiery denunciations of the
street car company and broke up in
disorder. The audience became mob.
The first street car that hove in sight
was stopped and was reduced to a
scrap heap.
Car after car was attacked by the
mob, which grew in numbers every
moment. Protests by Mayor Geary and
other officials passed unheeded- Police
reserves were summoned but they We're
outnumbered so to 1 and were utterly
powerless. For over an hour the car
nival of destruction continued un-
checked.
Traffic of all kinds on King and
Younge streets was tied up. The mob
showed consideration for the passen-
gers, allowing them in almost every
instance to leave a car before attack
ing it An order was finally issued to
stop running cars into the downtown
district and not until it had been car
ried out were there any signs Of a
restoration of order.
The crowd gradually withdrew from
the streets and the street car service
was resumed.
