A a result the federal governor of tho port i--ucd a mauifei-to en deavoring to incite anti-American feeling. The American, he said, were responsible for not lauding the borely needed provision. Mnsatlan has been half starving for months, and evacuation can no longer bo delayed. Preparations to ucconiplwli it are going forward act ivcly and it is expected that in a few day the federal garrison will he cIcamTn-r feouthwnrd to Salina Cruz. TJicrc arc now no federal troops in Lower California, and rcjvorts to Itear Admiral Howard, commanding the Pacific fleet, state that the Yacpii Indians arc caut-ing some trouble in the vicinity of Gunymas.

NEAR FAKIR DEHK1 A MEDIEVAL SURVIVAL AUSTRIA htm tlooluvojl xynr upon Soi'via Ihiohuso tho hch to tho Aiistrinn throne was assasshitod by a RtjM'b tuul tho Sorvian ovoi'timout hat? rofusotl to comply with the humiliating tonus donmtulort in retaliation in tho Austrian ultimatum. Tho nation is swept by a "wave of patriotism," better styled blood-lust, to avenge the royal insult alid Huropois likely-to be plunged into general war because of the aet of n wealc-minded assassin. Countless HveS must be. forfeited, homes desolated, Togions devastated, the horror of the battle field replace the smilingverdure of the rain fields, the lair earth drenched with human blood is a sacrifice to tho great god. AuslruUlLungary is a medley of nations and a jumble of races,.. The efforts of its ridel's since the middle ages has evov been For the dynasty. Royalty is still a medieval institution and patriotism still consists in the sticrifice of tlie nation for Jhe ruling family. The Serbs m Austria are jhi the, empire against their will and more or less oppressed by the rival races, the Ger mans and Czechs. It can scarcely be called patriotic for them to fight against their brethren upon command of their oppressors. Tluyhavo been forcibly, annexed and appropriated, and the paii-Servian agitation is the real cause of the war. The danger to the Austrian throne lies in the faot that the confederation it governs is apt to go to pieces at any time, for. general dissatisfaction exists among every people deprived of political liberty. ocrviu is a comparatively has not yet recovered from it territorially enlarged hut doubtedly m us w.cakQiied condition it will lo an easy vic tim for Austria and the bitter nation confidently figures on grnbb.Uig ti largo slice of lis ironuie ana saivc us wouuuco nonor. ."Suppose the assassin of the Grand Duke Franz Ferdi nand had been u liussiau instead of a Serb. Does anyone suppose that Austria would have made the demands upon big and powerful KtiSsia in a 48 hour ultimatum that voro made upon little and weakened Servia? The friendly ser vices of other nations would have been sought, instead of spurned and there would have been no declaration of war to avenge the royal murder. Patriotism would not have .sounded the tocsin so vali ently against a superifir foe. The national honor would not have been so outraged. The human sticrifice is neces sitated simply because of royal resentment and racial greed. The Avar, whatever the outcome, will work a hardship upon the entire world. II; withdraws from useful occupa tion apd productivity hundreds of thousands. Tt diverts into useless channels capital that should be employed in peaceful pursuits. It halts tho progress of the worid. As long as nations persist in bankrupting tbemsoJves by maintaining huge military establishments, just'so long will the threat of war hang liko the sword of Damocles Over the world. Until the myth of royalty is outlived and the 'artificial distinctions of national boundaries and in sular "patriotism" are wiped out in a confederation of the World just so long will the greed and grab of the dark ages constitute political policy. ' Yerba Mate, the Tea "Toma listed mate?" (Will nu take some tea!), is the customary welcome extended to the weary trav eler in the rural di-jtrjets of Para guay, and if the traveler in some thing of a diplomat he will. Ami that, too, eeu if the host does take the first sip from ' the bombilla through which it is sucked from the mate, or gourd, in which it is pie pared, and which is then passed over in him; for male is tho drink and pledge of hospitality all out the country districts of Paraguay, por tions of southern lirazil, and north ern Argentina. To refuse the lios pitublo offer is to io offense, although tho courteous Paraguayan, Ilrnzilinn, or Argenlino is not in the habit of urging the invitation by a little uuu-pluy, as is said to have been tho cutom among our cowboys and heroes of tho west sonic years ago when u tenderfoot refused to "have a drink." Still, Urn stranger had better taku u sip or liwi if )i wishes, to become "persona grata" even if the hombilln has been moist ened by other lips lljan hi-, and the "tea" is somewhat bitter aiid hcihv in taste.
