Tucson, Arlz.—There resides In this tiorder town a rancher who 'has a good Ittea of how Napoleon felt when he was oanlshed to St, Helena to pon- ‘<ler the vicissitudes of war. He is the former General Fran- elsco Robles Manzo, 200-pound ex-un- •<lersecretnry of war of Mexico, com mander of Sonora and the conqueror •of the Yaquis. Today he Is a political refugee from his native country. In the 1929 Kscohar rebellion Gen eral Manzo served as a commander of *11 rebel forces In northwestern Mex ico. With the defeat of his army by the {edentls he was driven across the international boundary, leaving be hind him a fortune accumulated after years of labor in his home at Ortiz, Sonora, Mexico. Despite his comparatively low’ estate here, the once noted military leader may look across the boundary of his mother country to a number of eco nomic achievements which still stand as monuments in Ortiz to his enter prise. In making his escaf>e he left be hind 5,600 head of cattle, a 125,006 light and power system, a modern stater works which he founded, ex tensive ranching Interests, some 200 miles of Improved highways In and adjacent to Ortiz, and modern har- racks bousing sortie 2,000 soldiers whom he commanded. “Whatever glory that was once mine was wiped out In a moment,” lie said, smiling sadly. “But I *tUl have my wife and four children and I am a good rancher—so perhaps I should not be despondent There still may be brighter days ahead.” And the once highly honored fed eral officer, clad now In dungarees, goes about his work as any other Mex ican laborer. And occasionally from hi* Ups sound Mexican national an thems he loves so well. Incidentally, one of General Manzo s favorite historic characters Is Na poleon. - Miraculous Blooming of Lily Is Reported Rome.—A strange story of a miracle •comes from a village In the Abruzzl mountains. In the Church of Gulliano Teatlno there Is a statue of Saint Anthony. It is the custom to place a Illy In the left hand of the saint on June K1 -of each year. Though this dies after a few days. It Is reported that ever since the year 18H2 It has come to Ufa and budded again shortly before the Feast of St. Anthony. It was decided this year to test this phenomenon. By agreement witli the parish priest. Father Bonette. the mayor of the village. In the presence of the congregation, took three lilies, placing one In the hand of St. Anthony and the others in the hands of St. Rneli and St. Gabriel, whose stalues alsu adorn the church, 'rite cloister gate* were then closed with the municipal seal. Upon investigation a few days age tt was found that, while the two -others had withered a way, St. An thony's lily was quite fresh ami bortt two buds. Great excitement prevails in tiie locality. “Glamis” Castle Most Mispronounced Name London.—The name of Glands eas tie, where the duchess of York was In retirement, Is said to lie the most mispronounced word heard these day? in the United Kingdom. Much of the confusion, some say 3s due to the fact that Shakespeart in “Macbeth” wasn’t too sure of its pronuncation. It has been variously pronounced “•Glammiss,” “Glamme,” “Glams,” but the correct pronunciation, authorities maintain, is “Glarms.” Shoes Stolen Off Feet of Sleeper in Station Augusta, Ga.—Tilings have come to •a pretty pass when one’s shoe's are stolen otT one's feet, hut that's what happened to J. II. Anderson, of 'Charleston, S. while waiting for an early train in a railroad station in Augusta, Ga. While waiting, he took a nap ami •'loosened the airings on his new calf skin shoes. Sometime later he arose, only to receive a shock when ids un shod feet lnt the cold door. His shoes bad vanished during his long nap. ^Ideal American Girl” Work*, Friends Learn Delaware, Ohio.—The “ideal Ameri- «e:in girl,” Miss Alice Thompson, has been made director of religious educa lion In a rhiladelphia church, friends I**re have learned.

YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOP IC—Hqvv Christ Gives Strength. I. Peter Confeeeing Christ (Mark 8:27-29). The time was near at hand when Christ should make the supreme offer ing of himself for sins on the cross. Knowing the tragic experience through which the disciples would pass be cause of It, he sought to prepare them fordt by leading them Into the appre hension of the cardinal doctrines of the Christian faith such as: the in tegrity of his person, atoning death, resurrection, and second coming. Peter's confession was provoked by two questions of Jesus. 1. “Whom do men say that I am?” Opinions differed, but all recognized him to be a teacher or a prophet with more than human authority and power. 2. “Whom say ye that I am?” Jesus persistently claimed to \>e the very Son of God. He would have his disciples to possess a personal and experiential knowledge of himself as to being God manifest in the flesh. II. Christ Warning Petar (Luke 22:31-34). 1. He told him of Satan’s desire concerning him (v. 31). Satan is con stantly striving to destroy men. 2. Christ’s prayer for Peter (v 32). He prayed that Peter’s faltlr tfall not, not that he should escape the siftings. 3. Peter’s confidence (v. 33). His fall began when he refused to listen to Christ’s words about the cross. Believers begin to w’eaken when they no longer desire to hear about Christ crucified. 4. Denial announced (v. 34). This was to take place three times before the crowing of the cock. III. Peter Denying Hie Lord (John 18:25, 27). ' 1. Before tiie. servant maid (vv. 15-18). j Peter blundered In attempting to follow Jesus at tills time (John 13:36). Presumptuous boldness frequently leads into embarrassing positions. Un der tiie taunt of tiie Jewish maid lie openly denied tiie Lord. 2. Before tiie servants and offi cers (v. 25). Peter was now warming himself at the enemy’s tire. When questioned, lie denied Ids relation to tiie Lord. Sep aration from everything that Is op posed to tiie Lord Is necessary in. order to have a clear testimony (II Cor. <5:14-18). 3. Before the kinsman of Malchus (v. 26K • This man had seen Peter with Jesus in Getlisemune (v. lit) when Peter rashly cut off tiie ear of Malchus. He put tiie question straight to Peter, “Did I not see thee in tiie garden with him?” At Hie utterance of the third denial, the cock crew’, reminding Peter of Christ's warning (Mark 14:72). IV. Peter’s Restoration (John 21:13-17). Peter had thrice denied his Lord. Therefore, before ids reinstatement in the Lord’s service he must thrice confess his love for Jesufc. In tills reinstatement and commission of Peter D set forth the motive and nature of the service which lias Christ’s ap proval in all times. Love for Christ, not primarily love for tiie sheep, proves the genuine shepherd. 1. “Feed my lambs.'* « ^ The word “feed” as well ns “lambs” signifies that the work here enjoined is that of nurturing babes in Christ. 2. “Feed my sheep.” The word hero means to feed, guide, correct, and lead tiie maturer classes of Christians. It carries with It not alone responsibility of feeding, but cor rective discipline. Failure will in evitably follow if tills be attempted without love. * ”. 4 “Feed my sheep.” This doubtless relates to tiie care of aged Christiana. The word “feed” re turns somewhat to tiie meaning as in tiie first Instance where he says, “Feed tuy lambs.” ho that the min-. istef*s responsibility to cure for the 1 aued is equivalent to jhat of the young. ‘ IVter wqs to express devotion to 1 Christ by a martyr’* death.
