 GREAT UPHEAVAL

LISBON, May 17.-The revolution is ended, the people have won, new government is in power and order has been restored throughout the republic. During the short period of the revolt severe fighting took place between the adherents on both sides and many lives were lost. It has not been stat ed officially but it is generally under stood that some of the leaders of the deposed party have been executed. This city is now celebrating with wild enthusiasm the successful uprising.

MADRID, May 16.-Many lives have been lost in the Portuguese rev olution but it is rumored here this af- ternoon that the revolutionary party has secured control of Lisbon and, therefore, of the machinery of govern mcnt. Owing to the contradictory ac- counts of the causes of the revolution it is difficult to secure the real facts and only one thing is certain and that is that the people had become entirely dissatisfied with the methods of those in power. The royalists remained practically inactive during the dis turbances and this inactivity is sup posed to be due to their doubts as to whether they are strong enough to take the field.

How the Needlewomsn Can Set CoIors
In Woods.

A needlewoman who does great
deal OF embroidery in colored woods
always takes the precaution of settling
the colors before using them.
She soaks the woods for at least an
hour In boiling water 10 which tea
spoonful OF vinegar has been added.
At the end Of an hour she hangs them
up to dry, patting but not wringing
out the moisture.
The first finger OF the left hand Of
the woman who does much sewing,
embroidering or crocheting becomes
much disfigured because Of pricking Of
the needle. In some instances the I'm
ger becomes very sore.
To prevent Disagreement and sore
ness put a strip Of court plaster on the
fingers. Such precsution IL especially
worth while when working on delicate
fabrics.

LEATHER LEGGINS

Whin you want to build railroad

Where there's niver anybody bin

Why, you call on Leather Leggins an
he bitches up his belt
An he takes it as his ordinary chore
To 20 slashin' through the forests
where the monkeys chatter shrill
An the lazy snakes are hissin' down
below,
Or to drag chain an transit over
gulch an grassy hill,
As he marks the route the right az
way will go!
He's a nervy, wiry devil with his note
book an his livil,
An he doesn't seem to know the
name av Fear,
He's a sort av scout av Progress, on
the payroll as Civil
Though he amt so awful civil, If you
say it on the livil-
On the payroll as Civil lngineer!
Whin you need to dam a river or to
turn it upside down
Or to tunnel underneath it in the
mud,
Or to bore an blast subway through
the innards av town,
Or to blow aside a mountain with a
thud;
Win you want to bridge a canyon
where there amt no place to cling
An the cliffs is steep an smoother
than a wall,
Why, you call on Leather Leggins, an
he does that little thing,
An then comes around an asks you:
rs that all? ?"
Oh, he always has a fire in his old an
blackened brier,
An he tackles amy job that may
appear,
An he does it on the livil, this here
divil of Civil
Though he amt so very civil, if you
put it on the livil-
This here divil av a Civil Ingineer
Now the bankers Gown In Wall Street
gifts the profits whin it's done
While us heavy-futted diggers gifts

But we lifts our hats respectful to the
Ingineer, my son,
For that Teller, Leather Leggins, is
a Man!
Yes, he takes heap av chances an he
works like Billy He'll,
An his job it neither peacable nor
tame,
But you bet he knows his business an
he does it mighty well,
An want to give him credit fer the
same!
He is plucky-on the livil-and you'll
niver hear him SWIVEL
Though Fate does her best TO put
