At least no exception to that rule had ,wcurred in our former history. On this occasion, there was no such techniacl justification for a revolu- tion. It' was not necessary in order to get peace. for no man desired peace more ardently and sincerely than the King. There was no reason to fight over the personal union of the two monarchies, for this was settle(} and, furthermlore, was an inescapable re- sult and natural outcome of the sit- uation. A democratic suffrage law was no longer an issue. It did not require a revolution, consequently, to give the disaffected elements control of the government. They were in complete possession of power without it. "This revolution was consequently only a crisis of hysteria and an mani- festation of war neurosis. It suc- ceeded, not because the revolutionary party was well organized or pnsse9s- ed military power or pursued a thought-out, carefully planned policy, but because society itself Was a nerv- ous wreck and all the stays of the old order failed. The people and classes which normally maintain the stability of the state saw no escape from the frightful situation in which the country was placed; they had no confidence in a favorable peace or in any measure of salvatinin, They were bereft of energy and power; and shirked the fearful responsibility which goes with their possession for protecting the established order to the last. Since the beat elements nmong the people despaired of sav- ing the situation, they permitted themselves to be 'lambed from their positions of authority with a feeling of relief.

Quick execu- tion, under the busy life of down- town Portland, is said to have been muted out to many men, while mi- lady shopped above. At any rate, that is the gist of one of the marry tale told about police headquarters concerning Port- land Chinatown, by an "unchow" who should know. Moat of the police are aware of the suspected existence of the tunnel. The numerous raids against gambling dene, which to the public are more or less routine af- fairs, are tinged with the thrill of adventure for the police, who won- der which ane of their number will be the first to discover one of the entrances to the mythical passage- way.

Like hyenas, they will slink about. quite close to a house, especially if they think there is a chance of get- ting a. dog or cat. They are particu- larly fond of dogs and cals. This story will give you some idea of a leopard's boldness. Three settlers had hero sitting rather late one night in a small stone house. One of 'bent, who slept In a hut 200 yards away, at. last rose to go. He was followed out of the room by his dog, a small terrier, and in leaving omitted to close the door. In crossing to his own sleeping place the dog wandered from him and, without. his noticing any- thing, was chased by a leopard. In its terror the dog re-entered the room. The leopard. undeterred, followed 1t, and In some way as it entered, man- aged to close the door behind it.

Stewart MAIN STREET PHONE 77 WHY IS A POLICE PATROL SPOKEN OF AS A "BLACK MARIA?" The habit of referring to the vehicle used to convey prisoners and disor- derly persona to a police station or prison as a "Black Maria" had its origin in Boston during the colonial days when a negress by the name of Maria Lee kept a boarding house for sailors in one of the roughest sec- tions of the city. Maria was a woman of gigantic ; statute and prodigious.�ttrength, and! was therefore a great assJatanse to the authorities in preserving the peace. The entire Fawlese element of that part of Boston stood so in awe of her that Whenever an un- usually troublesome person was to be removed to the station house the services of "Black Maria" were usually required. One of the stories told of her is that elle took at one time, and without assistance, three riotous sailors to the lock up, and then, glancing around. demandee1 to know whether "Thar's anyone else wh•i needs Maria's help?" So frequently ass her assistance needed that the expression "Send for Black Maria" became a syn- onym fur the removal of prisoners to jail—a synonym which persisted lung after the original Mack Maria had been supplanted by a barred and guarded vehicle. found myself unconsciously straining my ears for the sound of the explosion. I was disappointed, however, for I heard no sound. But although no sound reached my ears, the explosion came at the proper time down in the heart of the earth. What a terrible ripping and rending there must have been! When the vibrations had died away in the bowels of the arth, there was an oozing and trickling as if the life- blood had begun to run from the terrible wound within. And truly it was so, for when the pump was in- stalled again and the power connected the precious oil rose and poured out, barrel after barrel.. ' Those things I learned when I again drove past the old well in the ' field; and as I drove on, considering the event, I thought that there are more wells than oil wells. There are the wells of the human heart; and those sometimes fail to flow just as the oil ,wells do. And when they fail the Master sometimes sees fit in His wisdom to "shoot the well" of the human heart. It seems cruel some- times, those broken plans and crushed hopes. How many torn hearts there are in the world! And the Master has thought best to have it so in every case. But, oh, how rich is the nil oto love and sympathy and kind- ness, and how full is the stream that flows from those broken hearts! If breaking the heart brings grief, sure- ly the "oil of gladness" that flows at last will soothe and heal the wounded heart; and in the joy that follows we shall not remember the grief. UNDERGROUND CHINA IN STATES Two hours of hard work, with crow• bar and hammer, on the part of policemen in a recent Chinatown raid at Portland, Oregon, failed to gain admittance to the steel room in which Ching Louie and a party of seven other Chinese were said to be con- ducting a game of fan tan. The alleged gamblers, when they had their fill of the sensation of being in the interior of a boiler that was being riveted, opened the doors with difficulty. The heavy hammers had nearly made them prisoners by jamming the locks. At police headquarters Ching Louie, while counting batt from a stack of hundred dollar bills, inform- ed the police thnt someone had spent $10,000 in fitting up the room for a gambling den. The place measured forty feet square. The walls were of (luart4•r inch steel; and the doors of the same material. Galleries had been built around the wane in order that spectators might watch the game from that vantage point. In the centre of the room Was a large table which at times resembled a garden. as there was se much "long green" stacked 071 its surface. Efforts of the police to lig- certain alto was owner of the den were unsuccessful. It is well known that. men who were "pinched" were but hirelings of some Chineae boss who wields great power among his followers.
