the colds themselves that you
need to fear, but the serious dis

For half a century Mr.. Howells has

as compared with scores upon scores

ignoramus as a military strategist

CURRENT THINKING
FIRST INVASION OF MEXICO.

The first invasion Of Mexico by a
foreign power reached its successful
conclusion 6S years ago, when Gen
Scott and the American army enter
ed the City of Mexico. The conquest
OF Northern Mexico had been effected
before Scott marched on the capital.
He landed at Vera Cruz in March
with an army of $4,000, and the fci-
lowing month began the advance in
to the interior. They were confronted
by strong force of Mexicans in the
strong Pass of Cerro Gordo but de-
feated Santa Ana's men and passed
onward.
The Port of Perota and the City Of
Papalpa surrendered without resist
ance, and in May the victorious Am
orleans entered Puebla There the
army rested until August, when the
advance was resumed, and the Mexi-
can army of 10000 was defeated and
broken up by a force of a third its
number
The battlemented hill of Chapulte-
pee, overlooking the capital. held out
until September 13, when the Stars
and Stripes waved over its shattered
castle, and on the following day Scott
entered the city.
In 1863 another foreign army
marched from Vera Cruz to the City
of Mexico, the French under Bazaine
capturing the city in which the Aus.
trian Archduke Maximillian set up
his short-liYed empire.

with Bulgaria fighting on the side
of the Teutonic powers. Burgas, in
all likelihood, is destined to play the
part of the most important naval base
OF the central powers upon the Black
sea- according to a primor on war
geography just prepared by the Ma
tional Geographic Society "Burgas,
Odessa and Sevaastopol will prove the
points of chief interest in the naval
and expeditionary struggle for DOM
ination Of the great inland water
body.
Besides the advantage of an ex-
cellent, rOomy harbor securely shelf
cred in a deep-mouthed bay, Burgds
has d central position on the Black
seas western shore. 1t was Bulgaria 5
second commercial port before the
wars outbreak, and was rated as a
harbor of great strategic importance.
1t is connected by branch line with
the great orient railroad
"The port-city is built on low-lyin2
ground. In the splendid harbor be-
fore it the fleets of Bulgaria's allies
or of her enemies might anchor with
plenty of room to spare. The harbor
was formally opened In 1904, and
during the years of peace since then
its commercial importance increased
rapidly. Manufactured goods and
fuel, coming from Austria Hungary
Belgium, Germany and Great Britain
were imported through Burgas, while.
in favorable years, there was a large
export Of grains wool, tallow, cheese,
butter and altar of roses. The pop
ulation of the port is about 1900"

1HETTER than present,-bet-

mas tree, is the Christmas
story, says Laura Spencer Por-
tor, a current magazine writ

In the midst Of many sug-
geshons as to how we may best
preserve and set forth the
Christmas spirit" she writes
the story stands as perhaps
the most lasting and satisfying
answer. Gifts shall be given,
the poor shall be fed, and the
needy supplied. But above
these worthy and needed
means OF shedding abroad the
Christmas spirit, the Christ
mas story hangs like a Christ
mas star a higher and brighter
lovely though the rest
may be.

Christmas story hour. Let it
be the quietest hour of Christ
mas Day, perhaps in the late
afternoon when the gifts have
been examined and enjoyed
and the romping fun is a bit
quieted down. Or, best of all,

FRANCIS JOSEPH

m HE anniversary of the ac-
" cession of the Emperor
Francis Joseph to the
throne of Austria has been cell
ebrated throughout that land.
He has reigned for 67 years
the longest period in which any
European sovereign has surviv,
ed holding his seat and his au-
thority.
While Austria-Hungary has
held its own among the powers
of Europe during his reign, his
personal fortunes have been
most lamentable. The mur-
der of his wife. daughter of the
Duke Macmillan of Bavaria,
by an Italian anarchist in Ba-
varia in 1898, was followed
onlv a year later by the violent
death of his only son and heir,
under strange conditions. He
has no direct successor; the
heir presumptive is his me-
phew.
And now he finds, in his
S6th year, his empire involved
in the greatest war the world
has ever seen-one of the prin-
ciDals in the conflict. the first
ally of Prussia. Whether an
ether great sorrow is to come
to him only the fates of con-
flict can decide.-Boston Post.
