Special to the Evening Review.
BERLIN, Dec. 23. Clprlano Cas
tro, the deposed president of Vene
zuela, was thrown into a furious rage
today upon receiving by cable a copy
of the proclamation of Gomez, the
acting president, announcing that he
had been overthrown and warning
him that his property will be confis
cated, and that if he attempts to re
turn to Venezuela he will be arrested
on the charge of embezzling public
funds. The proclamation is signed by
eighty prominent citizens, and marks
the end of Castro's rule in Venezuela.
Castro, the dictator, who has gov
erned the republic with a rod of iron
ever since he took forcible posses
sion of the Yellow House In Caracas
In 1899 is now openly charged with
conspiracy to encompass the assassin
ation of the man whom he left at
the head of the republic when he
said away on November 23 from La
Guyra, nominally to secure skilled
medical aid in Berlin for a malady of
long standing, and is today thorough
ly discredited.
The Bank of Venezuela has cabled
Its correspondents ,at Berlin and at
Paris cancelling the unlimited letter

he left Venezuela for Europe and no

'A CHRISTMAS GREETING.
A Merry Christmas to you one and
all, my dear members of our dioces
an family. At this Joyous season my
heart goes out in loving greeting to
all our clergy and laity, to the ralih
ful In active city parish, to friends
without the diocese, to the patient
and sometimes discouraged workers
In our distant missions, to ranchers
far away who can have no opportun
ity to make their Christmas cominun
lous, to our Auxiliary women, and
the dear children, to the occasional
worshiper with us, and also to those
baptized and confirmed members of
our Father's family who rarely, if
ever, "praise God in the congrega
tion;" to all may God In abund
ance give the cheer and consolations
of the Christmas truth. How all
thoughts of self, of our successes and
failures, of the indifference of
friends, of the unresponsiveness of
fellow workers, of false judgments
of our actions, and misinterpretations
of our motives, take to themselves
wings and fly away, and our hearts
glow with Joy and love when we
meditate on the marvel of, the In
carnation, on the great wonder-of the
Isove of God. The world apart from
Christ gives us no adequate assur
ance that God is Love, although Rob
ert Browning has taught us to say
"He that created love, shall He not
love?" But that GOD IS LOVE it
Is this that our Lord GUARANTEES.
It Is this love which furnishes the
motive power to carry out the object
of the Incarnation expressed In the
command of Christ "As the Father
hath sent me, even so send I you."
The call of the Incarnation to you
and me is personal and complete. We
are asked to INVEST OURSELVES.
Tbe motive, after all, which must
move the Church, is not proportion
ate giving or systematic giving, pleas
for money, . various incitements to
duty, or the crying qeeds of heathen
at home or the heathen abroad. It
is the example and direct command
of the Incarnate Lord. The "as" and
the so of that command are equal.
His coming Into the world cost Him
poverty, persecution, agony and cru-
sifixion. He gripped the world by
renouncing It, and we must continue
and complete His work as His com
missioned ones, for He Invests us
with the same program of renuncia
tion, and the same promise of victory.
I call upon you, dear people, to IN
VEST YOURSELVES, body, soul and
mind In the service of our Incarnate
Master; then there will be no "mis
sionary problem" and no lack of
means for Church support. The In
carnation of the Son of God Is not a
speculation of the understanding. It
is incomparably the greatest fact in
the whole history of our race, and
as such ft imposes on us correspond
ing moral duties, so that It is no ex
aggeration to say,
"Were the whole realm of nature
mine,
That were an offspring far too
small;
Love, so amazing, so Divine,
Demands my soul, my life, my
all."
Affectionately,
Your Bishop and fellow-servant in
the Lord,
CHARLES SC ADDING.
Bishop of Oregon.

PENDLETON, Or., Dec. 22. De
Iding that It would not be profltnble
to attempt longer to dery the City
Council, Dee Matlock, who was ar
rested recently on a charge of selling
near-beer without a license and who
had declared he would carry his
case to the highest court If necessary,
this afternoon changed hls'pleu from
not guilty to guilty on two counts. He
was sentenced to pay a $50 fine on
one, while sentence on the other was
suspended during good behavior.
This Is regarded as a signal victory
for the city and an admission on the
part of the Baloon men that the city
Is in control of the situation.
