CHRISTMAS IN MEXICO
A RELIGIOUS FESTIVAL.

NHRISTMAS celebrations in Mexico
differ greatly from ours and usual
ly last for several days. Bright
lanterns suspended in the air proclaim
the glad tdings of the holidays, and
every Mexican jacal, no matter how
humble, puts out its beacon to light the
steps of the Saviour should he per-
chance appear. The story Of the birth
of the Redeemer is annually portrayed
In all Mexican towns and in q SYM
bolic language which the most igno-
rant can readily understand.
The performance is given by fifteen
players, consisting Of Joseph and Mary
and the infant Jesus, two archangels,
Lucifer and three Of his mini0ns and
a number of shepherds. The costumes
are adapted to the Mexican conception
OF the characters and are novel in the
extreme. All of the costumes are got
up tastefully. and, while strict con-
formance with the requirements Of the
first century might rob Joseph of his
sOmbrero, still IL is doubtful If the
lesson which it is desired to instill in
the minds of the people would be as
effective il all the minor details Of the
early Jewish fashions were followed.
The scene of the play opens near
bethlehem, where the shepherds are
tending their iocks, by a host of angels
appearing and telling them Of the birth
of the Saviour and inviting them to fol
low to where he lies. They follow the
star which leads them to the stable, in
the manger of which the infant rests
in the arms of Mary and Joseph. While
rejoicing, Lucifer, armed with two
swords, appears and attempts to de
stroy the child Jesus, but Is repulsed
by two angels, who keep watch over
him. Not to be outdone, Lucifer sum-
mons three archdemons, who fight with
the angels for the course Of half an

Then the shepherds break out into

Legal Proceedings to ImpeaOh
His Honor May Start
at Once.
HARBoR NO. 50 AS PLAINTIFF
Attorney Ashford Scores Man
He Helped to Elect as
City's Executive.
lrrom Monday Advertiser.l

In all probability, within forty-eight
hours Honolulu Harbor No. 81, of the
Masters and Mates Association, whose
members are now on strike against the
Inter Island Steam Navigation Com
pany, will commence suit to GUST Mayor
Joseph j. Fern from his office in the
municipal government.
The grounds advanced are that he is,
in violation of the provisions of the
municipal act, accepting employment
from others than the city-that he is,
in short, employed by the steamship
company as 'crimp,' as counsel for
the harbor referred to him last night.
The suit will, of course, be brought
in the name of citizens and taxpayers
and is now under serious advisement by
| A. s. Humphreys and @. w, Ashford,
the legal directors of the strike.
This latest sensational development,
/ in which the strikers, for almost the
first time in the history of the country,
are seeking to GUST the city's chief
executive for alleged pernicious activ-
ity in the opposite cause, came after
the strike was hardly week old
The harbor states that it believes
that it has ample proof of its allega-
tions and that it is convinced that
Mayor Fern has been drawing money
from the Inter-Island Steam Navigation
Company ever since he sat in the
mayor chair.
The present dissatisfaction with Fern
is because, as the harbor stands ready
to set forth in court, he Is ac-
lively using his personal and political
influence with the supposedly weaker
members of the harbor, and particular
ly the native Hawaiian members, to in
duce them to break loose from the har-
Dor and remain with or return to the
service of the company.
What makes it worse, state the Of.
ficers of the harbor, is that he has per
sonally assured several of the white
members that he is using all his inhu
ence to induce the native Hawaiian
!, members to stand pat with the harbor
! "He was lying at the time, and hi
u knew it," stated O. w. Ashford last

General Reyes Is Killed
Leading a Charge
Of Rebels.
Loyal Troops Surrender
and Arsenal Is
Captured!

CITY OF MEXICO, February 10. =
CIV Associated Press Cable.) = This
city is in the hands of the rebels,
President Madero and his family are
in hiding behind the fortified palace
and the bodies of dead men strew the
streets of the national capital, the
result of a revolt by the army yester-
day. General Bernardo Reyes, one of
the great leaders of the revolution, has
been killed, and two hundred or more
loyal Mexicans who attempted to de-
fend the capital lie lifeless in the
streets and along the walls of the build
ing which they attempted to save from
capture The rebel loss is not stated.
The revolt came yesterday, carefully
planned by the revolutionists and was
entirely unexpected by President Ma
dero and his close adherents. In mo-
ment the blaze started and with shouts
for the lives of the President and his
advisers and for the success of the
revolutionists, the revolters charged the
public buildings.
Machine guns, manned by loyal
troops, defended the government build
ings. These poured forth a deadly fire
and the best gers were moved down as
they advanced. The Jail was reached
first, Generals Felix Diaz and Bernardo
REYES, of the revolutionary forces,
being among the first liberated. They
led the final charge on the palace.
General Reyes Shot.
General Reyes was at the head of a
force of one thousand mounted police
who had joined in the revolt. Many
of these were killed in the first charge
and General Reyes was among those
who fell. The loss of Reyes disheart'
ened the hesiegers and when they were
finally attacked by force of Chapul'
tepec students and other volunteers
who came to the defense of Madero
they withdrew to side street.
In the meantime, General Diaz had
led a second division and after stub
born fighting succeeded in capturing
the arsenal and powder works, the prin
cipal sources of ammunition supply FOL
the entire Mexican army.
Wild confusion reigns throughout thu
city. General Diaz is practically il
control and has set about to restor,
order and reorganize his wildly enthu
siastic forces.

however, to some education of the peo-
pie of Hilo on this subject, it will be
of benefit. During many years while
a promotion committee managed in Ho-
nolulu has made the Volcano the big
gest feature of worldwide advertis-
ing campaign, Hiloites have over and
over again committed the absurdity in
press and speech, of accusing Honolulu
of knocking the Volcano trip. There
has never been any more basis for the
tourists to Hilo, to visit the Volcano.
And Honolulu hotels, reaching all over
the world for patronage, make of tho
Volcano great reason for visiting the
Hawaiian Islands. One Of them has
just issued booklet Of about "a hun.
bred pages of illustrated statistical and
historical matter and in this Honolulu
hotels booklet there is more space de-
voted to the Volcano than to any other
one subject, and no other single sub
ject has as many pictures in the book,
