Miramon returned to the. capital, and cn May 9th overturned Zu1oaga's new govern ment. On the following hay the dip- lomatic bodies suspended relations with Miramon The latter threw off longing to Englishmen, and inaugu- rated a series of prosecutions which | drove all foreigners. including the
 ministers, from the city.
 In November the eCenstitutionalists and Conservatives c1ashed in a de- cisive battle, and the former were vic- torious. In January 1861, Miramon fled and zJuarez entered the capital with his army. In an election which followed the great Indian statesman and soldier was. elected to the. Pres idency. He had inherited a host of troubles however, and. all his genius was unable to cope with them. M ex- ico was utterly impoverished, and in
 July, 1861, the Mexican Congress de- l cided to suspend payments to foreign CTS for two years This led to the
 breaking off of diplomatic relations
 with England. France and Spain. In October these three European gov

 Juarez had used his best efforts to
 protect foreigners, and had succeed ed except in isolated instances, but the occasional outrages were made the excuse for European intervention.

 The answer Of the Mexican Con- gress to the European demands was
 to confer full powers upon Juarez,
 and then dissolve. Tn December
 Spanish troops took possession of
 Vera Cruz, and intervention had be-

 The British and Spanish forces soon

SILVER AND CUT GLASS

Fine, heavy silver and rich cutgIass are universally regarded as ideal wed- ding presents and rightly so.
 In these wares there is beauty, value and utility combined z In them appropriate and desirable articles can be found to fit equally we'll the filI- ed wallet or slender purse; and again there are many pieces of both that are needed for the house quite as much as furniture and other things.
 We make 3 speciality of carrying a. wide assortment of suitable gift arti- cIes in silver, cut glass and etc., espe- ciad1y those nationally advertised. m. J. BUECHLER

She was the wife OF a wealthy bust
ness man. and also the daughter OF a
policeman.
AS they grew rich, both she and her
husband strove to conceal this latter
fact as much as possible-for the sake
of their social prestige
Now, at dinner, the conversation hap
pened to turn to the question of ances-
try, and everybody began talking about
their families. with the exception of our
friend. the policeman's daughter. who
was careful to maintain a discreet ST.
lence But before long even she became
involved in the discussion.
