 FROM MEXICO z. J. Langston Got Away From Escolon on the

CRITICAL.

C. J. Langston, former master me- chanic for the Cotton Belt here Who for more than ten years has been engaged ill developing his silver and lead mines i'll the state of Chihuahua Mexico, i2as arrived in Pine Bluff and will probably remain here, with relatives @ few days or until after the so-called revolution subsidies in that coun.ry He left Etscolon, Chi huahua, Mexico, on February g. on left that place for Fl Paso and spent several weeks in Fl Paso in hopes Of being able 70 return to his mines. interviewed about the trouble in Mexico, but it is known by his most intimate friends that he deemed it unwise 70 remain in that country et this time.
 According to statement, which h-d to be drawn from MT. Langston by persistent questioning, more than 75,000 Americans have hurried out of Mexico into the sta@as in the past few weeks because of fear of war in chat country and because of the repeated attacks that are being made by the insurreetos.
 Were there many people leaving the Mexican country af the time you came over the border?" he was asked.
 Well there were lot of them ahead of me- replied MT. Langs- ,on, trying to evade the question, and a few behind me. The Fl Paso papers estimate the number of ref uges from Mexico in the past few weeks at 75,000 Americans alone.'
 MT. Langsson says that there has not been a train out of Escolon, his home town, since February 9, and he smilsd when he said he was for tunata enough to catch the last one. According to the former Pine Bluff ian the Madero government has three factions to contend with Just now, the Gomez, Zapata and Crozco bands. Croszco was formerly in charge of Maderos army, but he reca ntly turned against the government and nas joined the insurrectos.
 Mr. Langston says that many cities have already been taken and are still occupied by the anti-goyemnmsnt forces and that an attack is looked for daily On Mexico City. Business is practically g.. a etandstill through out &he Northern part of Mexican territory. He has been tere ten years, but he believes that the sit uation in Mexico at this time is more critical than it has been a& any time turing that period.

WEDDING ANNIVERSARY HELD.
Mr.. and Mrs. Joseph Bartlett Enter
tanned 200 People at Plainfeld.

Plainfield. June 24--Last Saturday
afternoon and evening, June p, Mr. and
Mrs. Joseph Bartlett entertained about
200 of their friends and relatives, the oc-
casion being the golden celebration of
their marriage. Joseph Bartlett and
Clara Paige Hutchens, were married in
Barre by Rev Edmund Copeland on June
p. 1862, and came TO the home farm
to live. the farm where Mr.. Bartlett was
born and brought up. having never left
the home town or farm for any length OF
time.
To these people were born six chill
dren, two daughters and four sons. They
We're Augusta, Mrs. Cleveland Kellogg,
who died February 81, leq2; Alice, who
died in young womanhood, June 5, 1878;
Edward d.. a resident of this town;
Levi who died July o, 1906 Roscoe, Of
Canaan, VT; and Clement, also resid
ing in this town. OF the six children,
two were present at the reception, and
of the / grandchildren, 10 were pres
ent to help their beloved grandparents
celebrate this rare occasion.
At the proper time, the bride and
groom" were led to the place of hon
or, and the congratulatory address was
made by brother, 4. ]. Bartlett, who
was followed by the crowd who, marched
around to the strains of wedding
march played by Mrs. L. j. Bartlett,
congratulating the happy couple.
Following these ceremonies, program

received by them in great surprise.

THE RULE or THE GALLERIES.

There is great deal of reason behind
the suggestion that the galleries be elm
mated from the great national party
conventions on the ground that huge
crowds of people assembled as spectators
have the chance to sway nominations
by the very loudness and length of the
clamor which they put forth. 1t is pos
sible, too, that the giving out of tickets
of admission to spectators might be
maneuvred so that one faction of party
would receive major portion of the
tickets and thus could turn their attend
ance to account by wild bursts of enthu-
sasm for the candidate of their faction.
In case the convention should contain
any considerable number of unpledged
delegates, which is, OF course, possible
even in these days of close contests, such
enthusiasm from the galleries might
prove infectious and, therefore, the loud
est shouters would get many of the
struggling votes. That is manifestly
wrong. What the country wants is a
convention as nearly deliherative as pos
sible and swayed by logic as much as
possible, rather than by noise. But
where the galleries of the convention hall
are crowded with thousands of excited
individuals shouting like dervishes it Is
not possible for convention to exercise
calm thinking. The galleries do no good
to the convention and they serve merely
to satisfy the amusement-loving natures
of sporting men, politicians and those
with time hanging heavily on their
hands. The galleries ought to be elm
mated from this time forth.

Now that he has intimated that he
will resign, President Hamilton of Tufts
college will not gain anything by re,
naming overlong at the head of the
Medford institution, although he is gen
orally credited with having given good
administration; an executive with resig-
nation pending cannot WELD the most
powerful influence because Of the knowl-
edge that his policies may be entirely
supplanted by the IDEAS OF the incoming
president. The reasons which lead up to
the threatened resignation seem to center
about President Hamilton's inability as
a money getter, or at least his failure
to secure endowment and requests, to-
gether with his unwilingness to act as
money-seeker now that Tufts stands in
great need of more funds. Otherwise,
he has done well at the head of the
institution for more than ten years, ac-
cording to those who are in position to
make fairly close and, at the same time,
impartial judgment of the events of
those years.

actually be candidate of third party
remains to be seen. Although nominated
by the boiling convention and accepting
that nomination, Roosevelt's attitude
was not that of fnality with regard to
becoming candidate there was not that
element of certainty which generally
characterizes his utterances and his po-
sitions. Instead of positive position, he
advised his followers to return to their
homes and ascertain the sentiment upon
which to base judgment as to the wisdom
OF calling another convention; if the
sentiment was found to be strong
enough, then they would call conven-
tion to take formal action in promoting
his or some other candidacy of the So
called progressive party. Albeit that
sentiment in the Roosevelt states may
be found to be strong, the chances seem
to be against the calling of another
convention and the naming of a candi-
date from the Republican party to run
against Taft and the Democratic nom
inee. But in the event that second
Republican candidate actually enters the
field, it means the disruption of the
party and the easy victory OF the Demo
cratic nominee, for it is probable that
the prestige which goes with the regular
nomination Of the party would Offset the
votes which Roosevelt, the most likely
candidate of the 'progressives,' would
be able to sweep to himself in his cam
paign in person.

THE REPUBLICAN PARTY'S
DILEMMA

The Republican party is left in cha
otic state by the action of the regularly
rallied convention and the boiling con.
vention held at Chicago Saturday night
and the November result is difficult to
conjecture even. The only certain thing
Is that President Taft will go before the
voters of the country again and seek
their voters in his entirely laudable am
bition to secure a second presidential
term. Whether or not ex- president

named by the boiling convention, will

KEEP THE SPIRIT FREE.

A wise man once remarked that one
who would hear some good music, see a
fine picture, read good thought, each
day would have happy life, and though
the direction does not seem complete,
not having anything in it to satisfy the
heart, there is a great deal Of truth in
it. None of these things is beyond the
reach of the poorest, unless it is the
music, which is not to be heard with
out price where there are no birds,
but the sky and plants will furnish
beauty, and books provide thoughts to
sweeten ones days work. 1t is a great
help daily life TO lift ones thought
above the grind if only for a moment.
1t is like a breath of fresh air after
being in an unventilated, crowded
hall. One does not have to be mental
ly commonplace because ones work is
in the kitchen or in an Office or shop.
However bound the body may be the
spirit may be free, if one wills it to be.
Epictetus was slave, but he was also
a philosopher, whose words have help
ed millions. Keep your spirit free
whatever your bodily condition may
be. That you can do.-Dora Morrell

Let home stand before all other
things. No matter how high your am
bition may transcend it's duties, no
matter how far your talents or your
influence may reach beyond its doors,
before everything else build true
home, Then from its walls shall come
forth the true woman and the true
man, who shall together rule and
bless the land. Is this an over-wrought
picture? We think not. What honor
can be greater than to found such a
home? What dignity higher than to
reign it's undisputed mistress? What
is the ability to speak from public
platform to large, intelligent audiences
or the wisdom that may command a
seat on the Judges bench, compared to
that which can insure and preside
over true home, that husband and
children rise and call her blessed?'
TO be the guiding star, the ruling
spirit in such positions higher honor
than to rule an empire.

THE BEST KIND OF PEOPLE.

Now and again one runs across a per-
son who seems to have absorbed all the
essential wisdom of this life. Such a
one not only lives easily with his kind,
avoiding all unnecessary friction, but
he lives helpfully. One such person
said: "There are two things one has
to do in life; first, make up ones mind
firmly, once and for all, that one does
not matter much, but that everybody
else in the world does matter. And,
second, one has to learn that the inn
portant thing is not what you can do
with life, but what you can do with
yourself
There is immortal wisdom in these
two counsels of perfection. The person
who can once convince himself that his
own fate is vastly important, compared
with other peoples has come at the
very kernel of Christianity. And the
person who has learned that the
events that drop from fate are newt
able and persistent, whereas the spirit
in which one greets events is infinitely
plastic and modifable, has added the
Stole philosophy to his Christianity.
1t was the Stole emperor who insist
ed that life is not given into our hands
either to mould or to hold back, "but
it is in the power of the soul to main
tain its own serenity and tranquility,
and not to think that pain is an evil.
For every Judgment and movement
and desire and aversion is within and
no evil ascends so high" In our own
limited sphere, then, we are creators,
making all events that touch US take
the shape of our own spirits.

The social neighbor is not always
the useful neighbor, yet each in her
place has special influences to exert of
equally beneficial consequences The
sympathetic neighbor is also popular
one, but she has to exercise continuous
tact, lest her solacing influence may
occasionally be overdone or utilized at
untimely periods. The inquisitive
neighbor is always dread to every
body within the reach of her inquisitive
curiosity, as she does not seem to
have any intuitive respect for others

personal affairs to an outsider.
