AS He Goes Marching On.

|. With poignant emotion we note
the fact that Madero Francisco ].
Madero to be precise - is marching
upon Juarez with an army, as we
write, and will doubtless reach it in
course of time.
Our emotion, however, is not
that produced by novelty; for Mad
ero Francisco |. Madero afore-
said has been marching upon
Juhrez when not otherwise employ
ed for 10, these many months. We
would not put too fine a point upon
it; but to the best of our knowledge
information and belief Madero has
been thus engaged since the 9th of
last November or Whereabouts
Moon since then have waxed in ar
gent splendor only to wane in chilly
gloom; year has died. a year has
been born; the Missouri Capitol and
the New York ditto have roared
heavenward in a chaos of flame,
leaving the legislators behind; the
RECIPROCITY bill has lost the first
heat and is again coming down the
stretch; Sylvia Pankhurst has visit

all this time Francisco l. Madero
has marched upon Juarez like the
march of the moments into eternity
or the supers in a war drama
athwart the rear of the stage.
A mathematician might pause
here with profit. How far, in all,
has Medero marched? Since No
vember 81 we have had three days
of that month, thirty-one each of
December and January, twenty
eight of February, thirty-one of
March, and twenty thus far of
April Ia days in all. Allowing
for twenty Sundays and twelve 9TH
er holidays, when the insurrectos
may have played monte and pelota
we have left 1872 days. Twenty
miles a day is but moderate for
these seasoned troops. This totals
2,44O miles already covered by
MaderO and his gallant men in their
sempiternal march upon Juarez.
For the last few weeks they have
been reported very near. Republic

The Rebuilding of King SoIomon's

By j. H. Franklin.
Centuries have passed since King
SolomOn's Temple was destroyed
and new worlds have come into be-
ling. Long ago when Christ was on
earth and spoke of building up the
temple in three days the people
thought he meant the ruined temple
of Jerusalem instead of the temple
of the spirit. Now an Omaha man
proposes that the Masons of the
world rebuild this structure. He
lays down a definite basis for action
proposing that the MasOns organize
The Temple Association, the direct
object of which shall be the rebuild
ing of King Solomons Temple on
the same location in the same city
as the one was builded which made
the name of Solomon known the
world over for all time"

search and the book contains a
