Eulalia closed her eyes. Still the Governor stood silently, awaiting some word from his wife. After a while she opened her eyes. "I am sorry," she said softly. "It must be a relief to you to know that it is over." She tried to sit upright. "Will you help me?" she asked. "I think I should like to get up today. It is the first time I have seen the sun for such a long time." "I will call Angustias "No, please. You can wrap me in a cover, and carry me outside, if you will." He bundled her into a qatilt, and took her in his arms without altering his expression. Light as a child she was, as he carried her outdoors, and into the golden sunlight. Servants hurried with chairs, Angustias followed with the baby.

Pedro Fages went about long deg layed and plans for the mission to Santa Barbara, and still another, Mission La Purisima. He wrote scathing diatribes on the laziness, bestiality, gambling, profligacy and immorality of a little pueblo, El Pueblo de Nuestra Senora de Porciuncula la Reina de Los Angeles, which the natives called Los Angeles. (The diatribes did no good.) On a bright sunny day in August, 1784, about the time that EulaUa gave birth to her California flower, there was a great hubbub in the harbor of New York city. All the notables of the new nation were at hand to greet a distinguished visitor, who, with a love for the young country in his young heart, had traveled across the ocean to pay a visit of congratulation. There were public receptions, congressional honors. George Washington extended the hospitality of Mount Vernon to the guest. heart-breakin- saiijirai. NtRj BitM r T pfinTars Parta A la trm Co.

"Now," she sang, "praise God, something will happen!" It was late afternoon before the frigates, the Astrolabe and the Boussole were safely at anchor, and the Governor, who had not left off s put watching, saw two out for shore, seeming to thread their way among the whales diving and spouting about them. As the boats landed, strong barelegged Indians assisting the sailors who leaped into the water, Pedro Fage stepped forward to greet a officer, in impleasant maculate epauletted uniform and white curled peruke, and accompanied by several other gentlemen. For an instant, even while he had his hand stretched in welcome, he had a moment's panic. These were Frenchmen, and he spoke no French, that is no decent French. But the Comte de La Perouse was already greeting him in broken friendly Spanish, and the Governor seized the Count's hand gratefully. When Don Pedro invited La Perouse and his aide, Le Pante Dage-lea young man who spoke no Spanish at all, to dine with him, saying that his wife expected them, the stranger raised his eyebrows, and accepted.

"From Halls of Montezuma," Marines, Fighting Song, Dates to Mexican War place on a farm near Louisville on October 19, 1881. The match, held for a stake of $2,000, attracted a large number of "sportsmen" from many large cities and created much betting- throughout the country. A railroad company even ran special excursion trains to the Kentucky metropolis, says Collier's Weekly, and the incoming crowds were welcomed by the notables of the city. - The United States marines have completed an investigation into the origin of their famous song "From the Halls of Montezuma," which they have made famous in almost every part of the world. The results of the investigation, reports a San Francisco, Calif., United Press correspondent, show that the song had its origin at the time of the invasion of Mexico City in September, 1847, near the close of the Mexican war. Elated with victory of American arms over the Mexicans, an officer sat down in the Aztec club and scribbled the first verse of the pop- ballad. is thus that the marines account for the beginning of the besprightly ballad which has since de come a bulwark of their esprit corps. Later the song grew by leaps verse after verse befeArdd Indizucla often she and bounds, some more or less inadded by ing l0C?keH at the girl, lissome, brown, spired "leatherneck." served her master The investigation of the origin ot ystcnous, wholike a dog, and song also developed the fact the done old Something might be that the music came from an Bra"Genevieve de French opera, lhBut days, months, years slipped bant."

As the song now stands it consists of only three stanzas which begin with "Halls of Montezuma," the place of origin and end with the assurance that the marines will be found guarding the streets of heaven. The song has been the battle cry of marines in the Civil war, the Spanish-Americawar, the World war and in the scores of other international operations in which the n Gun Invention , , A soldier's Invention to eliminate' trigger! on guns developed the idea of improving the accuracy of rifle and pistol fire.
