were wondering what they would do
should another arrest be made, when

how it has relieved him.

and why it was that after my Sabbath
duties had been performed, sleep was
a stranger to my pillow till nearly

Mexico City.-With the same en-.

entry into the capital last week,
Francisco l. Madero was welcomed

On his return from a five days trip
through southern Mexico.
With Madero was Ambrosio Figue-

men composing the insurrecto army
of the south, and whose loyalty to
Madero admittedly has been one of
the reasons for the rapid triumph of
the revolution.
Madero returned satisfied that the
Inhabitants of the south will support
him and that normal conditions
have been resumed in that section.
Only one person and one place are
exceptions to complete peace. The
person is Emilio Zapata, an enemy
of Figueroa, under whose command
he was supposed to have acted, and
the place is Cuernavaca, where Ia
pata's men were quartered.
Zapata is characterized by the
rebel leader as a bandit and unless
he disbands his men at once, Ma

him and Zapata will in that event

The Worth of the Voice.

How wonderful is the human voice!
1t is indeed the organ of the soul!
The intellect of man sits enthroned
visibly upon his forehead and in his
eye, and the heart of man is written
upon his countenance. But the soul
reveals itself in the voice only; as
God revealed himself to the prophet
of old in the still, small voice, and in
the voice from the burning bush. The
soul of man is audible, not visible
A sound alone betrays the flowing OF
the eternal fountain, invisible to man

the beauty and variety of the plants
growing about it's shore. The vessel
remained eight days, and before she
left the British flag was hoisted. AS
is the custom on each recurring ami.
