LIFE,


Life is such a common thing
Just made up of days
That keep on in a circle
And never change their ways.
Morning, noon and night-that's
all
That We ever know
Such a common place affair
Is the road we go.
Life Is such a common thing
/ Some glory and some grief;
An hour of happy springtime
And then the whithered leaf
But just because it's common
We all can live a bit
Joy and pain, and sun and rain,
And Gods love over it.

Rebels.

Ell Paso, Tex, Dec. 23.-Refugee
federal soldiers arrived yesterday at
Juarez to report that the $50 feder-
al irregular troops garrisoning As
cincion practically were annihilated
Wednesday when rebels attacked the
town, about seventy-five miles south
west of Juarez. The attack was
made shortly after midnight, and
fighting continued only for few
hours. The garrison commander re-
ports by letter to Gen. Trucy Aubert

teen of his men escaping besides
himself. He is hiding at ranch, he
writes. The fate of $50. federal reg
ulars at Guzman, near by, is not
known, but it is believed that the
town was taken by rebels before AS
cencion.
The rebels were commanded by
Gen. Inez Salazar. The revolution
lists are reported as mobilizing at the
captured town. Gen. Jose Blanco,
with 500 federal troops, is moving
against Ascension from the Casas
Grandes district to the south. A
train bearing 600 regular cavalry Of
the Seventh regiment arrived last
night at Juarez from Chihuahua
City and will proceed early. today
against the rebel mobilization.
A battalion OF regular infantry al
SO, it is said officially, is moving
from the west against Ascencion,
forming a pocket in which it is hop
ed to trap the rebel force, which the
federals now admit numbers more
than 1900 men. Rebel agents in
Ell Paso declare that General Orozco,
Jr., is in the field with an army of
more than 1000 men.

Washington, D. c., Dec. 23.-As

increasing greatly in number. There
now is at work on the canal and the

FIVE REACH LAND SAFELY

St.. Johns, N. F., Dec. 23.-Twen-
ty-two of the twenty-seven members
of the crew of the Furness line
steamer Florence, from Halifax, N.
S., for St. Johns, lost their lives in
the wreck of the vessel on the lodges
west of St. Shots during north
west gale last Friday. Five exhaust
ed survivors who reached land in a
boat brought the news last night.
The steamer carried no passengers.
Captain Barr of the steamer and
all his men reached shore after the
vessel struck, but the lofty, inacces-
sible cliffs of st. Shots prevented
their escape. The big tide, backed
up by the northwest gale, made it
impossible to remain there, and all
hands were obliged to put back to
the ship, which was pounding heav-
lily. -, ....t.
Captain Barr felt confident the
wind would go down, but Second
Mate J. Hedley volunteered to take
four men in one of the ships boats
and seek a more favorable landing
further along the coast. In the
heavy seas then running the cap
tain was unwilling to risk more
lives and gave his consent to the
second mates expedition with re-
luctance.
With great difficulty Hedley pilot
ed his small boat along the coast un-
til he saw a break in the rugged
line of cliffs: Then, pointing the
nose of the boat directly into the
surf avoiding the outlying rocks
and on the crest of great breaker
Hedley ran his craft in without be-
ing upset. Tumbling out hastily to
avoid being sucked back by the un-
dertow, the mate and his four COM
papions dragged their boat up the
beach out of reach of the sea and
made their way back along the cliff
where the steamer lay.
The wind and sea in the mean
time had increased. The combers
broke continually over the decks OF
the vessel, which was grinding heav-
lily on the rocks. Hedley and his
men searched in vain for some path
by which the cliff might be scaled
or the crew of the Florence Nhelped.
The coast in that vicinity was UNI
inhabited. The few fishermen's huts
were deserted for the winter and
Hedley had to take refuge for the
night in one of these abandoned
shacks.
At daylight Saturday Hedley
found the wind had been steadily in
creasing. Hurrying back to the point
of which the Florence lay, he could
see no sign of the steamer. Consid-
cradle of her cargo of lumber was
floating along the short, but no
small boats were visible. ...
The five survivors made a long
and thorough search along the shore
for their shipmates, but no traces
were found. They then started for
St. Shots, the nearest inhabited
place. several miles distant. Two Of
