MEx1co,s COLLEGE FOR GIRLS.

The first college for girls in North America was the Collegio de Ia Pas, often called the Col1egio d~ las Wis cainas which was opened in the City of Mexico 147 years ago to-day, Sept 9, 1767. Several wealthy Spaniards founded the school and it's building was commenced in 1732, but their de- cision that the institution should be independent of the church aroused great opposition. The building was completed in 1746, but the authori- ties refused permission for it's opening. and the promoters were about to burn the edifice rather than give in to the church when Charles III, of Spain granted charter to the college. The Viceroy of Mexico took part in the inaugural ceremonies. The original name of the institution was Colegio de San Ignacio de Loyola, but it was changed to Co1egio de, la Paz by Pres ident Comonfort, in honor of his daughter. The college building cost over a million dollars and is one of the most beautiful of Mexican build ings. The students, about 500 in number, are now taught such practi- cal arts as stenography. typewriting, bookkeeping, telegraphy and office work, as we'll as English and French, and such ttartes'' as painting, music, embroidering, lace making and dress making.

 throat as he croucned Evidently the revolver he carried bothered him, for he placed 1t upon the chair. Luc1Ile's fingers darted out, closing. upon the welcome butt just as the woman leap ed across the distance that separated her from the couch upon which the blanket bulged deceptive1y, driving the ugly knife down with force that sent her off her balance. Lucille knew she could hide no longer and stepped from behind the door, the revolver leveled upon the pair, her voice shaking de- spite herself.
 Hands up!'' she cried.
 The man cringed, crouched away from her, but the sight of the girl there seemed to enrage the woman completely. Brandishing the knife wildly, she leaped forward, then 1urch- ed from si@e to side simultaneously with the discharge of the gun, slip ping, wounded to the floor in heap The man crouched still further away, and Lucille advanced upon him.
 Somehow she felt no eompunctfon now, felt no fear, only felt the neces- sity for immediate haste in getting away. She signaled to the felIPw that He S1Ou1d get or HIS ropes 10SCanL- ly. Sounds of activity came from ev- cry direction. She was shaking like a runaway horse with the strain The young fellow was equally nervous, but the revolver at his chest made him hasten. Lucille forced him under the blanket, missing warning in his ear which he evidently understood, as it was emphasized by a meaning prod that was more eloquent than any other language point of a businesslike gun. Voices were in the hall now. Lucille dragged the body of the Wo- man under the couch and squatted iE the woman's place just as the door opened and a head was poked inside. She mumbled something inarticufate, gutteral, peevish voiced, and the head was withdrawn after. the owner cast one glance at the figure under the blankets. He had no sooner closed the door than the girl picked the knife from the floor and ripped the blanket into strips, securely tying her prisoner and gagging him.
 Then, after waiting second at the door, mastering her courage, she step ped into the hallway and down into the open air.

The Mystery of a Voice

 TT was the sight of the ocean that

She \ shrugged her shoulders and march ed steadily down the foul smelling, dirty little street until she glimpsed a build ing taller than any others surrounding it and decorated with a gorgeousness of elaboration which made her forget everything save admiration for the skill and patience expended in such work. Before the door stood a closed pal anquin, evidently the vehicle for per sonage of great consequence from the rich silk robes thatoverdowed the sides. 'tLucilleY' came a hoarse whisper.
 This time she knew she had made no mistake. She even identified the di- rection from which the voice came. But surely nobody save Hugo Loube- que knew her in this place, and Hugo Loubeque-

 I have had a singular experience in loyemaking. Have been Wooed, but not won, by an earnest suitor of forty two. I am a, young lady of twenty five years Never was there a more determined proposer. He says he will not take no for an answer. Strange, 1t seems to me, that he never mar ried: never paid any attention to a. girl until he happened to come where I was. Then his heart went out to me, he declares Now he is in good, comfortable circumstances; has no 1fv- ing relatives dependent upon him ex- cept a sister, we'll along in years. He is her only support.

TO-DAY'S POEM


 Ye Mariners of England That guard our native seas! Whose flag has braved, a thousand
 years,
 The battle and the breezeI -Four g1Qrious standard launch again To match another foe: And sweep through the deep, While the stormy winds do blow; While the battle rages laud and long And the stormy winds do blow. The spirits of your fathers Shall start from every wave For the deck it was their field of fame, And Ocean was their grave; Where Blake and mighty Nelson fell Your manly hearts shall glow AS ye sweep through the deep, While the stormy winds do blow; While the Tbat1et rages, loud and long And the stormy winds do blow. Britannia needs nc bu1warks, No towers along the steep; Her march is OCT the mountain waves, Her home is on the deep. With thunders from her native oak She quells the floods below As they roar on the shore, And the stormy winds do blow; While the battle rages loud and long And the stormy winds do blow. The meteor flag of England Shall yet terrific burn; Till dangers troubled night depart And the star of peace return Then, then, ye ocean-warriors! Our song and feast shall flow To the fame of your name, When the storm has ceased to blow; When the fiery fight is heard no more, And the storm has ceased to blow.
 IT Campbell.

 Did you ever notice that the man who makes the most extravagant promises while a. lover is the man who proves to be the most tight-fsted of husbands?
 The narrow minded man cannot see why his wife needs a parIor Tl%a family uses the living room and why. shouldn't that be good enough for company? he argues. He doles out pennies to his wife to keep up the ta.- ih!ei raises no end of a fuss if the bills soar higher now and then an account of company. Cake, pie, indeedi If the family sits down to a little soup, crackers and cheese at night why shouldn't company have the same? he pines. It's as much as they get at home. It's a good dinner that's bring ing them, not friendship.
 He won't hear to his wife purchas- ing an evening dress. declaring party gowns are all extravagances. As long as he is satisfied to see her in a, white shirt waist and black skirt. what need she care how she appears in other peoples eyes?
 He thinks doing the housework should be pleasure enough for any wo- man. He remembers that his mother and sisters used to make their own hats. He don't see the need of giving a wife money for headgear.
 The woman WHO IS lO SIC14 man has no joy in life. She can never throw off her Encouragement She sees no hope flor betterment in the future. She looks with wistful eyes at the wife of the broad-hearted man across the way
 Their lives are such a contrast The broad minded man is liberal in his af- lection; always meeting his wife with a kiss at the door. He loves to see the smile on her lips. hear her happy laughter He brings her little tokens of regard-a= book, a flower or a box of sweets now and then. He believes in making life pleasant as they journey along He may not earn a. dollar more than his neighbor across the way. but { he lays aside a portion of it to be de- voted to her, realizing that the wife who Iabors in the home must have some good times to offset it. He will strain a point, now and then, to get her a new gown or to enable her to take her friends to a theatre party. He made no promises as a lover, but turned out to be all that could be de- sired as a husband.
 As long as a wife will stand flor a narrow-hearted mans conduct, he will I keep in the same rut. Every girl should study her beau carefully ere she WedS him.

making tpp speed for England or has
headed hack for an American port to
escape capture. At the Offices of the
steamship company. the officials de-
clare they have no word from tho
LGsitania. wireless messages picked
up at Portland, Maine, are said to indi.
cate that the Lusitania has put back
and that two British cruisers are hur-

are unconnrmed, however.
The Cunard ofices here do not ex-
pect to hear from the Lusitania unless
she has turned back, and then not un-
til she has arrived In port. Sending
a wireless to New York would reveal
her position to the hostile cruisers
combing the sea for her, and no
chances are being taken.
