Consequently, terror was brought Into Mexico City, together with the news that the troop train was de stroyed. Even the feeble efforts that had been planned for a Christmas observance were forgotten. And Christman Day was dismal enough. The day before, shops were dark and deserted. There was no shopping. There was no holiday spirit There -f.nnrd no Thought of anything ex cept that Villa’s murderous rebels were marching on, unimjHtded, to ward the capital. News came also from the west coast, where, In the vicinity of Apa- euipo, it is reported, the rebels are revealing even greater strength. The Federal troops, without supplies, made resort to a forced loan on the Spaniards in that city. Industry Is Paralyzed. Commercial and industrial activi ties on the west coast are at an end. The construction «>f a railroad out of Ae.ipulco has been stopped, and the Americana who were building it are on their way to the capital. In Mexico City the people are Im poverished. There is no money for the necessities of life In many In stances, much less for a Christmas celebration. Fears exist for the sol vency of all banks, and checks are accepted only with great trepidation. The banks open their doors only by mutual agreement, and when deposi tors apply, only limited amounts are paid out. The announcement made In the pa pers that the clearing house would handle checks had no effect on the general state of mind. Depositors, instead of trying to obtain their money by resorting to the clearing house, in their lack of confidence rc- eorted to the method of making per sonal efforts to withdraw their de posits from the banks.

PHILADELPHIA, Dpc. 77.—■Judges McMlchael and Ferguson have re fused a divorce to Clement R. H.

An order was made against him, but Judge Orlandy, in the Superior Court, set it aside. NEW YORK, Dec. 27.—Up-State, over in South Jersey, on Long Island and, indeed, wherever the possum makes its home, these cold nights find pursuers on its trail. After the supper dishes have been cleared away the hunters get the dogs together, light the torches and go out to tree the game. New Yorkers who go to the Virginias, the Carolinas or Flor ida frequently join in the hunt "for the fun of it.” Not long ago Jefferson City, Mo., got together 250 automobiles and just after sundown Governor Major, mem bers of his staff and other friends started in their machines, with horns and dogs, and followed by motor trucks bearing refreshments and ne gro "beaters.” for an all-night possum hunt. Someone sent President Wilson a large sweet potato last October. From MacFarland, N.

Lieutenant Starkey, Judge Advocate at Jefferson Barracks, says clemency will be shown Charleton if he proves h» deserted to aid an invalid mother. FREED FROM JAIL TO WED. CARTHAGE, MO., Dec. 27 Because he desired to get married and promised to keep out of trouble in the future. Circuit Court Judge I». E. Blair paroled Andrew Mayers, a prisoner in the county .iail at Carthage. After his parole was granted. Mayer was wedded to Mis" Anna Yeach. <»f Joplin, awaiting him in the courtroom. Orlandy said, "is founded on the theory of husband and wife living to- i|**lKer as such, and the natural and rdaeonabh* expectancy is that chil dren shall be born to that lawful Wedlock.” Rehearing Granted. Shortly after that decision, Cun ningham began an action. The mas ter recommended a decree, and the >urt approved it. On the plea of former Judge James Gay Gordon, counsel for the wife, a rehearing was granted. Judges McMlchael and Fer guson then rejected the report of the master. Judge McMlchael in his ^pinion says: However strange, abnormal and against nature was their compact and their subsequent mode of life, it does not seem to have affected libellant’s health for ten or twelve years, anti although he does assert that after that his health began to break down, the testimony If* that, up to a com paratively short time before he left the respondent, he was In good health. No Cruelty Shown. "It is difficult to decide this case merely on general principles. The testimony must he studied, and al though we have great respect for the master and for his learning, and are sure that his findings are conscien tious, yet we think his finding that there was cruelty wits against the di vorce laws of Pennsylvania as Inter preted by the higher courts and against the evidence. No evidence of nagging within the legal definition was presented which was sufficient to sustain the libellant's contention in that respect. "The testimony ns to refusal is vague and indefinite. And the fact of the compact and of their life to gether for fourteen years without ab solute relations has forced the •con clusion on the court that their meth od of life was by mutual consent, and not on account of the refusal or de nial by the woman of conjugal rights. Pennsylvania Different. “There are well-reasoned cases in i other States which have held that the refusal of equal rights Is a ground for divorce. Thus it has been held In Xe.v Jersey that refusal is construct ive desertion. "But the courts of Pennsylvania have taken a different view. "They have held that the refusal Is neither an act of cruelty nor an act of desertion, and we think we are bound by these decisions.” Judge Ferguson, associate of Judge McMlchael, says: "The extraordinary fact that Mr. Cunningham persisted in close and intimate relations* with his wife for a period of fourteen years shows clear ly that he acquiesced in his wife’s be havior as a compliance with the agreement they had made.” usual manner. Somebody sent Bryan family a possum. After they had fattened it for several days it es caped. Three days later the possum was found In an alley, and it took ref uge in a big tree. One of Mr. Bryan’s colored men climbed the tree, shook off the possum and the Secretary caught it A Possum’s T. R. Button. Possums are found as near New York us the Orange (N. J.) Moun tains. Henry Clark, of Orange, hunt ing one night last month, caught a possum, and when he dressed it he found a celluloid button in its stom ach bearing a picture of Colonel Roosevelt and the words “Vote for Theodore Roosevelt for Governor.” Whether the pssum gulped down the campaign button recently or whether It swallowed it when Roosevelt was running of Governor is a question. If you waht possum hunting, go tc New Jersey. Up along the hills In the northern part of the State, where the Hackensack River begins, is the place to go. Woodcliff Lake has within its borders a number of possum hunters, and almost any point in Bergen Coun ty is a good place to start from. John Sharp Williams, of Mississippi, was recently the guest of 25 Missls- sipplans at the Hotel Astor, where the menu included possum and sweet po tatoes, crackling corn pone and hom iny. Oscar W. Underwood, of Alabama, also likes the possum, and not so long ago he was the guest at a possum din ner given by the Birmingham Press Club. A Historic Possum Dinner. Robert Love Taylor, of Tennessee, and famous as Fiddling Bob Taylor, not long before he died received word that an especially fine possum was be ing sent to him from Waklos Ridge, in his State, and he planned a possum dinner. But he wouldn't have It cook* d by a Washington chef. "That would be desecration.” he said. “Nobody knows how to cook possum but a Ten nessee nigger.” And he sent to Wal dos Ridge and got a negro to cook the ar.lmal in true Tennessee style. The party that sat down to that dinner included Senator Crane, of Massachusetts, and other Northern ers, besides men who knew' the val le of possum, such as Senator Bradley and John Sharp Williams, and they said it was the most successful pos sum dinner ever given outside of Wal dos Ridge. Recently John Stewart Bryan, in The Richmond Times-Dispatch, dis owned the possum. This hard blow from a Southern editor came when Mr. Bryan said in an editorial: “Pres ident Wilson grows bigger daily. Hav ing had a possum wished on him from some lummox in Mississippi who wanted to get rid of the beast. Wood, row did not pretend to eat the ‘on’y American marsupial,' but sent it to the zoo. Possums are about as fit tj eat as cotton cake." One Way to Cook Possum. But a Southerner who loves possum takes issue with Mr. Bryan and says that if the possum is prepared in this manner Mr. Bryan will welcome the prodigal back again: “Singe the hair of the possum in hot wood ashes, be cause its skin Is a delicacy and must not be scalded. Then parboil him. This takes a certain strength away and makes him more tender. Then put him in a pan with a good deal of butter, pepper and salt and a litrlo brow'n flour, leaving the head and t'i 11 on. Cut little slits along the ribs and haunches and fill them with red pep per pods. Baste him with gravy while browning. cook sweet potatoes around him and then ser»'e him smok ing hot, though some, tc be sure, pre fer him cold, like roast pork. “You must have corn dodgers very brow’n and very crisp, persimmon pickles, chow’chow' and tomato ketch up, and lastly pumpkin pie and a sec ond cup of coffee. Then a darky and a banjo and a mint julep, and be happy.” The first thing, of course, Is to get the possum. You go out after him when there is n "frosty feelin’” in the air. A negro hand usually locks up the possum dogs in the morning so that when night comes they will he “right sharp.” Possum dogs pay no attention to the scent of raccoons, rabbits or wildcats. When the do vs strike a possum scent, they follow' the circuitous route of the little ani mal and soon the possum is treed. A rifles does the rest in case the possum can not be shaken off the tree and dispatched by the dogs or the hunter. Verses That Offended Wilson Penned by Soldier Who Died in 1904.

Modest Senator Uses 10 Words in Records FORT LEAVENWORTH. KANS., Dec. 27.—A young man called "Bud” started all the trouble for the Cara baos. He was a reporter, and none of the officers at Leavenworth, which is the second chapter of the Carabao, ever heard of him, although some of them were in the Sixth Infantry. “Bud” worked on a New York newspaper as a reporter before en listing in the Sixth Infantry. When he was discharged somewhere in Ne gros, he remembered he had a pro fession to fall back on, so he began to write copy. He was "broke” and this copy was his “last hope." The copy came from Isabella, Island of Negros. It was rattling good copy. "Bud'’ got money for it, and turned school teacher. It was in a village practically unknown. On Sat urday nights there was a chicken fight. ___•, “Bud,” whose real name was Wil liam C. MacDougal, -tlied there in 1904. Here is some of his copy: DAMN, DAMN THE FILIPINOS. There’s a land of dopy dreams. Peaceful, happy Philippines, Where the Bolomen are busy night and day; Where the natives steal and lie, And Americanos die. While the soldier sings this Filipino lay: Chorus: Damn, damn, damn the Filipinos, Pock-marked Kakiak ladrones, And beneath the starry flag, Civilize ’em with a Krag, And return to our beloved homes. Social wants are very few. All the ladies smoke and chew. And do other things the padres say are wrong; Presidentes cut no ice, For they live on fish and rice. And the soldiers still will sing that same old song: ’Neath the nigger’s nipa thatch, Where the lazy lepers scratch, Only haven after hiking all day lortg, As I lay me down to sleep. Slimy lizards o’er me creep. And 1 hear the soldiers sing this evening song: At Fort Leavenworth there are 78 army officers; 43 are “scared to death” and the rest think President Wilson should have some sense of humor. A New Parody. The official name of Leavenworth is the School of the Line. A booklet on the press contained the “Damn” song. It was out last week and can’t be hurried back. Also It contained, the “Cotton” song, which was paraphrased from a Koster and Bial comedy.

Oh, I’d I’ve been having a hell of a time since I came to the Philippines; rather drive a bobtail cart than live on pork and beans; They call me the Governor General— I'm the hero of the day— But I have troubles of my own, and to myself I say: Chorus: Oh. am 1 the boss or am 1 the tool? Am I the Governor General or a hobo? A hobo? For I’d like to know who’s the boss of this show— Is it me or Emilio Aguinaldo? It w’as to be printed in the Songs of the Line class.

J. Down at the Town Hall last night there was a public debate with, the lo cal “champ” Weather Prophet Devoe. expostulating that Noah saw' the firs: pretty ribbons strung in the skies, and the Rev, Dr. Hume, of Brooklyn, a-coming right back at him and a-go ing it up hill and down dale that It was Adam got the first peek—yep— before Eve started playing big time at all. "No, sir,” said "Champ” Devoe: “there wasn’t any rain till the worid went all wrong and the moon changed her course and the flood came. And when the rain stopped, then, Noah was first in it, at the first afternoon of the big sky show. Before that there wasn’t anything but mists. And men grew' to be giants and never died, and women could go shopping and never be caught in the rain. First time a rainbow* is ever mentioned In the Bible was when. Noah looked up after the flood.” “No, sir,” said the Rev. Dr. Hume “How comes it Noah w*as preaching 100 years about rain if he never saw It? It isn’t necessary to have rain t> see a rainbow. You can see rainbows iri the Niagara mists any day the sun is shining. So, if there w'ere only mists before Noah’s time, there were rainbows, just the same. Brother Devoe knows nothing about sunshin* —it’s all moonshine he’s been giving us—and him a prohibitionist, too”’ “And,” chirped up the Rev. S. F Davis from the audience, “he went and prophesied squalls for to-night, and the stars are shining.” Then everybody laughed “Ha, ha. ha!” at Prophet Devoe. and the rrmei- ing broke up. But Just the same. t«j a mere amateur it would seem that . Eve ever saw a rainbow' she’d ha\e told Adam to go get it and chucke away her fig leaf for the new deco ration.
