Rioting At Para.

When the latter of the two recent
naval revolts In Brazil was put down,
three weeks ago, 1t was announced
that the mutinous sailors had been
sent to states remote from Rio
Janelro, where they would be employ
ed in the construction OF highways
and railroads. The mutineers had
surrendered, and It was officially an
nounced that the disorders were at
an end.
Since that time comparatively lit
tie news has been gotten out of the
Brazilian capital, but there have been
persistent rumors of disturbance in
the State OF Para, on the north coast,
due to political dissatisfaction. Riot
Ing is said to have occurred at Para,
but confirmation or a denial from
the government are lacking.
Recently there have been two re-
volts in Brazil-one in the navy and
the other by the naval battalion in
barracks on Cobras Island, a short
distance from Rio Janeiro.

Charity.

Though faith may falter, hope ma.
wane,
There's one thing that assureth,
The one that will ever remain
For charity endureth.
And he who runs the christian race
This charity possessing,
Needs not another work of grace
Nor seeks the second blessing.
The good shepherds feed their sheep,
And loving watch-care take,
Der each lamb they vigil keep
Not all for lucre's sake.
With charity for our kind,
To claim as loving brothers
Should we naught but envy find,
For thirteen hundred others.
Who all like sheep have gone astray
With hearts and lives impure
o teach them now the better way
And make the fold secure.
May charity her mantle spread
Ger Adams fallen race.
Not for merit but instead,
A work of mutual grace.
To find the Apostolic church
With all it's Priestly powers;
Why should we for another search
When the true church is ours.
