REVOLUTIONARY PARTY CLAIMS SWEEPING VICTORY.
A
New York, Nov. 18. ** The Moxican National Revolu- tionary Party, founded by ex- President Caffes, and the late ex- President Obregon, claims awooping victory in the Presi- dential election for its nominee Ortiz Rublo. whose opponent is Jose Vasconcelos, ex-Minister of Justice--Reuter's American Ser- vice.
Mexico City, Nov. 18.
The casualty list in connexion with what officials call a "compara- tively quiet" Presidential election: is hitherto 19 killed and 50 wound- ed, which includes eight killed in fighting in Mexico Clly within sight of the President's Palace, where shots were exchanged and the asphalt paving was torn up and thrown with terrible effect.

Five policemen were killed Toluca, owing to the overturning of a lorry in which they were pro- ceeding to the scene of a fight.
Readiness for Sacrifice. When David wanted to build an altar for the worship of God he refused to secure it without mak- Ing some-sacrifice. And Araunah said "All this, 0 King, doth Araunah give unto t› King". And the King said unto Araunah

After I recently made a state- ment in the Cathedral of the financial position I received generous gift of $200 from an individual of slender means. Such a sacrifice was, as you can imagine a great encouragement.
If we truly value the rich in heritance of truth and beauty of worship that is ours we shall be ready to make sacrifices to secure these benefits both for ourselves and for others--and especially for others If we have in us the Christian spirit.
We are, I think, a little apt to take our religious privileges for granted. There is little doubt that the Chater Endowment has encouraged this attitude. Endow ments, of course, are an invalu able help, but if they tend to kill the spirit of willing sacrifice they will in the end do

thun good. It is hardly fair to allow the freedom from anxiety which they give us to cause us to sit back and take our Church for granted. The spirit of sacrifice is the essence of Christianity, it is the expression of the spirit of love. A Church or Congregation which is glad to make sacrifices will always be a power in any place. Wherens one without this spirit will be a nonentity. There fore as we settle what we are go- ing to give. let us, for God's sake. be willing to give that which really costs us something. And remem- ber that the need is urgent, and let each of us honestly do our utmost to meet it.'
