The Almighty has called needed him most. We can but bow our heads. Queen to Carry On. To the dead statesman, as he was lowered in the vault, she said, with tear-dimmed eyes: “Great and good friend of my youth and riper years, as long as there is still breath in me, for all I am worth, I shall try with God's help to carry on and uphold King Ferdinand's and yvour great work. Amen.” Fifty priests in medieval robes led the six white oxen which drew the body of the late premier three miles to its last resting place, among the peasants whose funeral rites he wished to share. 10,000 Peasants Pay Homage. him away at an hour when we all|g THE EVENING.

SAN JUAN, Porto Rico, November 28.—In the only public statement he has made since his return recently from the United States Gov. Horace M. Towner yesterday asserted that the chances for Porto Rico receiving fa -orable action from Congress on the matter of an elective governor in 1932 and other amendments relating to self-government never were better than at present. Everywhere, he said, he found evi- dences of friendly and cordial interest in the progress and welfare of the island and he was convinced that the chances were more favorable now than ever before for having that feel- ing reflected in official action. “Anything in reason that we ask,” he said, “and the people of the United States can give, would be granted.” —_— Protestant Knights Celebrate.
