Unhappy Mexico. There is still no sign of Mexico palling herself together. Reports from that "most distressful coup try" are somewhat obscured by the history that is being made in Europe, but enough is learned from the Manila press to show that internal political conditions in the Central american republic aro still as far as ever from what they ought to be. When Presi dent" Huerta left his country for his country's good and followed the aged President Diaz into vol untary exile and permanent. obscurity, it was neither unnatur al nor improper that General Car- rauza, pbief of the Constitution- aliats, stould assume the provi- aioual presidenoy, Asevents have anwise to do so.

Chinese Relics. The establishment of a State exhibition, or Museum, of articles of antiquity and carick in the Palace buildings represents the Gret step taken by the Govern- ment of Obina to preserve those relics of the past in which she is so rich but of which she was gradually being despoiled. Toe collection ornaiste so far entirely of articles laken from the Imperial Palaces at Peking and Jehol, and as they would all command a rendy sale and high prices in Earope or the United States, their preservation a national treasures represents a real saorifice on, the part of a Government in straiten- ed financial circumstances. The start has been made on a small erale bat in the right direction- he articles to which attention bas first been directed have been those that were in the most instant dán- ger. But, though every credit is due to the Chinese Government: at least for taking the matter in hand, it is doubtful whether any- thing would ever have been done but for foreiga initiative and Į agitation."
