Only Two Capable of Supplying Full Divisions. Washington. May 9. The Mexican situation assumed a more warlike as pect today. Activities in the war de partment, which began last night on the receipt of 1 ng confidential ail vices from General Funston, were re newed through the morning and were brought to the attention of President Wilson and the cabinet when the reg ular session began at 11 o'clock. While this activity disclosed that every preparation was being made for eventualities, Secretary of War Garri son said, just before entering the cab inet meeting, that Vno additional troop movements have been Ordered." In the midst of the. military prepa rations came definite word that the mediating envoys had received from General Huerta and submitted to the United States government complaints that new landing ofAmerican troops and war material at Vera Cruz amounted to a breaking of the armis tice which had been arranged by the South American diplomats after their good offices in the Mexico crisis had been accepted by General Huerta and the United States. This also was one of the-subjects before the cabinet. Secretary Bryan stated early in the day that the mediators' note had been Teceived by him and that reply would be made. It was authoritatively: learned, from- a source close to the mediators, that they are of the op(n- ion they will be able to persuade Gen eral Huerta that the United States has not been violating, in spirit at least, the armistice which had been agreed upon. Otherwise a stumbling block would be placed in their way which might render virtually useless their further efforts at mediation. News Is Held Up. The note from General Huerta al leging violation by the United States of the armistice, it was ascertained, reached the mediators, who are work ing in the utmost possible secrecy, day before yesterday and at once was pre sented to Secretary Bryan. The me diators themselves declined to com ment in any way on the matter, but it is known that they are proceeding with their peace plan as if nothing untoward had happened, expecting to see the armistice controversy cleared away soon. They were in conferencec curing the day, discussing their plan, vhich is to include, it has been learned, the constitutional side of the problem and the pacification of .11 Alexico. In connection with the military prep arations, for a possible forward move ment, it became known that the of ficials of the war department have been in long distance telephone communica tion with the governors of New York, Pennsylvania and Ohio, in an effort to determine how soon the militia or ganizations of these states could be mobilized and sent to the seaboard, for shipment in transports. This depart ment has been energetic in its efforts to make all preparations for the pos sible mobilization of the National Guard for some time. iooking After Militia. Latest inquiries of the department were directed toward ascertaining how soon the New York, Pennsylvania and Ohio troop's could be put in motion, in their present condition, without delay that would be necessitated by recruit ing them up to the full war strength. In the theoretic organization of the militia, the Pennsylvania and New York state troops each make up a full tactical division. They are the only states supplying a full division quota. Ohio combined with Michigan, to fill a division, and the other divisions are made up of several states each. A delegation of Tampico oil men who yesterday conferred with Secretary Daniels today visited Secretary Bryan and urged measures for the protection Of the oil properties, in the disturbed section around Tampico. The confer ence was extended and while it was on. Charge Nelson O'Shaughnessy, who called at the state department, was unable to see the secretary. He left, paying he would return later in the day. The British embassy here' has made representations to Mexico City, in be half of the Americans and English em ployed in the oil district in and about Tampico. These foreigners, when they attempted to land and resume their work; were driven off. There has been no response from the Mexico officials. Alt in Garrison's Hands. Washington, May 8. When Secre tary Bryan left the cabinet meeting today he said that no reply had yet been formulated to the Huerta com munication forwarded by the media tors, relating to the armistice. In the Huerta message he stated, question was raised as to the sending of the army to take the place of the naval forces at Vera Cruz. Asked if the un usual activity of the war department since the receipt of Gen. Funston'a cipher dispatch last night signified any, change of policy on the part of the ,Unite&' States toward Mexico, Mr. Bryan said that he could not. discuss the larralrs. or tne war. department. Other members, on leaving the snseilng, aid that it was understood that the entiro question of dealing with the situation at Vera Crux had been left in the hands of the war de partment. This followed the position taken by several of the secretaries during the consideration of the Mexi can situation that the United States was fully within Its rights. In any movement to reinforce the troops now in Vera Cruz, to any extent deemed necessary, despite the armistice at tendent upon the mediation negotia tions. It was pointed out that the armistice would not operate against the concentration of troops in terri tory already occupied by the United States. Secretary Garrison said that the In formation coming to the war depart ment from Mexico City was through refugee sources, and no official or diplomatic correspondence had been received bearing out the refugee re ports. Charge O'Shaughnessy conferred with Secretary of State Bryan and with the secretary to the president, Mr. Tumulty. He will not see Presi dent Wilson for a day or two. Mr. Tumulty, secretary to the presi dent, declared emphatically that so far as was known at the White House, there was no "serious crisis at Vera Cruz." He said the despatches from General Funston detailed conditions as described by refugees and were merely confirmatory of information already received. War Loan Asked For. Albany, May 8. A bill to authorise the governor to negotiate a "war loan" not exceeding $100,000, for tut use of the National guard was intro duced in both houses of the state leg iFlature today.

"That it is not the part of wisdom for the miners In the organized states to engage in a general strike, at this particular time," was the report today of the spe- cial committee, to the international executive board, of the United Mine Workers of America, in session here. It was decided, however, to push the strike in Colorado and an appeal for financial help was issued. John D. Rockefeller, jr., could have prevented the loss of life In Colorado, by favoring a settlement of the coal strike, through a meeting of the oper ators and miners, according to a state ment issued today by the international executive board of the United Mine Workers. The statement also declares there can be no turning back or turn ing aside. "The sacrifices already made are too great." The Statement. The statement reviews the strike and continues: "We deplore the loss of life, acts of violence and destruction of property, which have taken place. We are for peace and the establishment of right relations by employers and employees. We have exercised our efforts at all times toward righteous dealings." The miners asked for a conference time after time, it is stated, and quit work only after they had been refus ed a hearing repeatedly. "Ninety-five per cent of all the employees ceased work and are still Idle," the statement asserts. "The statement widely cir culated by the coal operators' repre sentatives, that ten per cent of our employees were attempting to force 90 per cent, is absurd and unqualifiedly false.

A RAY OF HOPE f FILES AJROTEST Huerta Complains That Ameri can Operations at Vera Crux Are in Violation of Terms of the Armistice. SEGS A COTE TO r.:ECMTCHS Its Contents Are Communicated to Secretary Bryan. Reply Will Be Made After a Cabinet Meeting. Washington. May 8. Secretary Bry an admitted early today that this gov ernment had received a note from the South American mediators seeking to solve the Mexican crisis In which com plaint is made by the Huerta govern ment that American operations at Vera Cruz are in violation of the ar mistice. Asked as to the details of the mediating envoys' note Mr. Bryan said: "It simply sets forth what Huerta says. A reply to the note will be made." Ambassador Da Gamma, of Brazil and Ministers Kaon of Argentine and Suarez of Chile, were astir early. None of the mediators would discuss the news emanating from Mexico City, re garding the Huerta protest, forward ed through Acting Minister of Foreign Relations Eetava Ruiz and later con firmed here by Secretary Bryan. That the envoys or one of them would go to the state department to negotiate further, regarding the protest against American military operations,- was said to be improbable by those in close touch with the mediation develop ments. When the United States would re ply to the envoy's note was not made known. President Wilson is said to have been informed last night of the Huerta government's communication and it is expected the subject would be considered at the cabinet meeting today.

M. Butlin Is in Topeka After His Adventures. A thrilling story of the escape of an English factory owner and his family from Mexico City and Vera. Cruz dur ing the opening of the American en gagements is told today in Topeka by the Britisher himself, Claude Marsh Butlin, president and general manager of a woodwork plant employing 700 men in the Mexican capital. Mr. But lin is here with Mrs. Butlin and three children visiting at the J. C. Wilson home, 516 Topeka avenue. The Butlin family, hearing through the German embassy, rumors of pos sible American Intervention, took 'a train out of Mexico City the day be fore the marines and .blue jackets landed at Vera Cruz. "I felt rather worried about' my family," Mr. Butlin said today, "and we decided we would take our vaca tion at this opportune time in To peka." The family arrived in Vera Cruz in time to see the United States marines land at Vera Cruz and watch a 'day's fighting from the German hotel. Mr. Butlin took several photographs of the day's fighting in the streets and from the second story of the hotel, di rectly opposite the main ranks of the American machine guns, he and his family watched the battle. They saw several -Americans and Mexicans killed. .1 "On the roof of our hotel the Amer icans established a rapid fire gut" he said. "All day. the booming of this gun shook the hotel and the return fire of .the Mexicans pelted the root. Beneath this fusillade of bullets the hotel was as quiet and peaceful as a summer resort, apparently. Children were frolicking around the halts and the lobbies and windows were filled with spectators. "I took several pictures' along this street, "In the evening we ran down the street directly in line with the return firef the Mexicans and took a smalt boat out to our vessel in the harbor in going out to mis snip it was neces sary for us to lie down flat in the bot tom of the boats to escape the cross water fire from both sides. "Paul Hudson, publisher of the Mexican Daily Herald and formerly of Topeka, left Mexico City with his son Donald just after I,- left. About the only thing that he could take aw.y with him was the stereotype heading of the paper.

"Mr. Hudson was -unable to print enough papers for the demand and v-ould take no subscriptions. In fact, he announced in one part of the pa per, 'The only paper in the world which will not take subscriptions.' Mr. Butlin received a telegram today from his factory superintendent in Mexico City. It state that the mill was running on a half day schedule, that many win dows had been broken and that conditions were quieting down. i.i Ke most reiugees rrom Mexico. Mr. Butlin was rather surprised at tn feeble attempts of the United States to bring oraer out or cnaos in tne trouDled terri tory. He did not think that the nresent policy of simply holding Vera Cruz would have much effect upon the Mexicans. Ha states that he win return soon and con' tinue his work In Mexico City.

In the trial of former Sheriff. N. T. Moore. for the killing. of Everett Wallace, a confessed horse thief, in an attempted jail delivery here last' January. Moore took -the witness-stand today. It was expected that the case would go to the jury before night. juoore ex plained the killing and said he acted burelv in self defense. Hiawatha, Kan., May 8. The state rested Its case late Thursday aiternoon in the trial nt Sheriff Moore of Brown countv. charared wtth the killing of Everett Wallace, a prisoner who tried to escape from Jail in this city the night of January 27. The trial is attracting more than ordinary attention here because of the widespread acquaintance of Mr. Moore in noirneasr lunaaa kuu wa features of the attempted Jail break. According to the chief witness for the state, Ernest Selvey, who also was a prisoner in the Jail at the time Wal lace was, killed. Wallace and another prisoner named Phillips were in an ad joining cell to him the morning before the escape. He heard them plotting to get away. There was a disinfecting sprayer In the cell and the two prisoners filled It with water. The sprayer consisted of a quart can on the end of a galvanised Iron tube, about twenty inches long, it was agreed, according to 8elveys testi mony, that Wallace should sit at the corridor door the prisoners having the run of the Jail in the daytime and as Under Sheriff Barlow opened the door and stooped down to pick up a tray containing the prisoners' supper that Wallace should strike him with the prayer and overpower him, and then pass the sprayer to Phillips. Selvey testified that Wallace hit Bar low on the head, felling him. Then, ac cording to the witness. Phillips took the sprayer, and struck Barlow, while Wallace got possession of a big steel padlock and struck Barlow with it. Sel vey said that according to the scheme of the prisoners, as he overheard It, they were to knock Barlow unconscious and then go to the door leading from the Jail into the sheriff's residence and knock. They fancied that Mr. Bar low, the undersheriffs wife, who lived there, would believe that it was her husband at the door and would open it, that they might rush past her to lib erty. Selvey said the two men had de clared they were going to escape if they had to kill Barlow. The Undersberiffs Outcry. According to the witness, when the tmdersherlff was struck: he cried out: "I am being murdered." It was brought out that Moore, the sheriff,- had intercepted a letter telling of the expected Jailbreak. and that he feared outside help for the. prisoners. He had stationed himself in the ward held for insane prisoners the day of the attack on Barlow. As soon as Barlow gave the alarm, according to Selvey's testimony, Sher iff Moore ran into the Jail- and com manded Wallace to let Barlow up. The sheriff, according to the testi mony, struck the prisoner on the head with the butt of a revolvers j The Shooting. V This angered Wallace and he made a. dash for Moore with the steel lock. Moore shot him, the first time, in the body. Phillips then said: "Damn you, I'll get you." i Then he ran at Moore with the sprayer. Moore than shot him in the breast.

Three Important nhases of the strike situation were be fore CoL James Lockett and his staff, of the federal army, today, 'for im mediate action. The most vital was the decision concerning forcible dis armament of strikers, mine employees and citizens. Developments yesterday tended to show that the announced plan of disarmament by proclamation could not meet with the entire ap proval of either faction. Some mem bers of Colonel Lockett'a staff, it is known, favor ignoring the Question of arms for the present. Others would proceed with duty In the strike dis trict on the assumption that no matter how many guns are surrendered through compliance with Secretary Oarrison's proclamation, many others would remain in possession of both factions. On the' calendar today was the de cision concerning the necessity for more troops in the northern fields. Appeals made to Colonel Lockett for additional men were transferred to Washington, to be referred to the com mander of the northern strike zone who has been proceeding independent ly or colonel LocKett- The colonel also 1s to determine to day. If possible, the number of addi tional troops which he might have to ask for from the war department.

Wont Flow It Up Tins Time. Norton. Kan., May 8. The condition of the wheat in Norton county this year was never better at any preceding year in the history of the county at a corresponding time. The wheat generally is thick on the ground and nearly a third more of the acreage of the county has been sown than in former years. Generally about this time of the year the farmers commence to plow up the wheat for corn, but this year we have not heard of a single case of this kind. The fields are in perfect condition so far as moisture is concerned and but very little rainfall is required to bring the crop through to harvest. Former years have yielded an aver age of from 12 to 15 bushels of wheat to the acre, but an average of 25 or 30 this year seems probable. More Rain Not Necessary. Hutchinson, Kan.. May 8. 8. L.

A Loyal Friend and Officer. Assistant General Manager Smalley was considered one of the best oper ating officials in the west. His ex periences in the last forty years in practically all of the departments of transportation equipped him with a wonderful knowledge of the affairs of his employees. His close observation of the activities of all the departments under his supervision brought to him the most devoted respect from the thousands of employees who have come in contact with him in an offi cial capacity -on the Rock Island. Mr. Smalley was a loyal patriot of the Rock Island. He knew the rail road from one terminal to another. He was able to promote harmony and co-operation among his working offi cers and men. His monthly staff meetings in Topeka where division su. perintedeitts and trainmasters were called together for "family" confer ences, made the second district a ma chinea human cog wheel of effi ciency. In his dealings with the men under him he was rigorous but indulgent, stern but gentle and severe but kind hearted. He had a sincere attach ment to the affairs of his subordinates. He loved a Joke a Jovial banter. His relenting spirits in times of anxi ety in the operation of his district brought his officers closer to 'him and pacified many a disturbed situation. In his daily tasks he was unrelent ing. No problem was too knotty for his immediate (solution and speedy ac tion. The hours of the day and night held out .no difference to him. In times of accidents he was in the midst of the wrecking crews. In snow block"- ades he feared neither storm nor fury, In floods his car always stood close to the work trains on the banks of the raging waters. His presence was an incentive to his men. His pleas. ures never stood in the way of the company's call for duty. And he died in the harness where the best part of his productive life has been spent a true friend, a loyal officer, a man of honor. Funeral The burial will be at the family home.' Des Moines.

Two kinds of oper tion are proving effective1 in the treat ment of tuberculosis, according to Dr. Edward Archibald of Montreal, who read a paper on pulmonary surgery before the Clinical Section of the National Associa tion for the Study and Prevention of Tuberculosis here today. The first method explained by Dr. Archibald aims to produce a collapse of the affected lung through compression.' effected by introducing into the chest cavity outside of the lung a certain amount- or nitrogen gas. ay means or this compression, the tuberculosis lung, being set at rest and prevented from fill ing Its natural function, is more readily healed than it could be under normal con ditions. The second method which he advocated was the removal of the libs, or portions of them, so that atmospheric pressure may act upon the lung through the soft yielding structure of the throadc muscles, or-that the ribs, may be allowed to fall in upon the lung beneath and so exercise compression. In either case the move ments of breathing are abolished, and the lung is put out of function Of course, he said, such operation were of value usually only in cases where one lung was affected, the other remaining practically sound. He said that the tier man and French physicians had reported good results in using the second method. "Great care must be taken, however," he added, "in either method to treat only those cases where X-ray examination and other tests have- shown beforehand that good may result, since sucn operations are fraught with great danger."

SUFFERED FROM PILES FOR THIRTY YEARS. CURED A. C. Kelley of Harris, Kan., Praises Dr. Wolfe's Treatment. Fistula of Four Years Standing Was Cured completely Dy tne I rutea Doctors Chief Specialist. From a letter from Mr. Kelley, dated, Harris, Kansas, April 16: For over thirty years I suffered from piles and at times they were so bad that I could not look after my business, and was hardly able to do any work at all. I tried many different kinds of salves and suppositories, but they only gave me temporary relief and did not cure me. 1 nave come to the conclu sion that what Dr. Wolfe told me is the truth as 1 know by experience. When he told me that he could cure me I could hardly believe him, but I began treatment at once and now it has been over a year since the doctor discharged me cured and I have not been bothered with the piles since. am able to do as much work and with more ease and am feeling better than I have for many years. It certainly is a great relief to me to be cured of the Diles. I also developed a fistula, four vears ago 'from the piles which caused me more pain and inconvenience and the doctor cured that in a very short time. I have not been bothered with it since. I cannot praise Dr. Wolfe's treat ment for piles and fistula too highly and can gladly recommend him to anyone suffering from this terrible torture. A. C. KELLEY. Harris, Kansas. Dr. Wolfe is at the head of the United Doctors in Topeka. Their treatment is a mild, absorbtion meth od, free from anaesthetics, caustics. ligature or tying of. any kind. The United Doctors do not use the Vnlfn. So successful has been their Drac- tlce, so great is the demand for the services of these experts that Dr. T. C. Brown has taken charge of the office and the patient's coming to Topeka wnue ur. j. s. vvoire a e votes a great er portion of his time with special cases in tne principal towns of east em and central Kansas. Two features of the United Doctors treatment and cure for piles and rec tal troubles are responsible for their merited success. They cure every case or every nen ny of the patient's money will be re funded. Their charges are so low that the person who suffers from rectal troubles will gladly give them to be forever free from the suffering and torture of former days. The United Doctors want anyone who is a sufferer to write to Mr. Har ris and let him tell them personally lust wnat ne minus or tneir wonder fu.l cure for piles. Examination, free, consultation free. The United Doctors tie Kansas Avenue, Topeka. Office hours: 9 to 6. 7 to 8. Sun days, to 12.

Made with Less ItesiUenc-y to Reduce Long Drives. Chicago. May 8 .Secretary Lloyd Rickard of the Federal league Thurs day telegraphed all the umpires and managers of the circuit for their opin ions on the change made In the league's official ball which was made for the purpose of reducing It re siliency. Too many long drives, in President Gilmore's opinion,' were being made by the Federal batters and at his re quest the manufacturers in the next lot of balls turned out, inserted a layer of cotton just beneath the leath er cover, which they estimated! would cut off fifteen per cent of the ball's resiliency. The new ones have been in use in some of the parka, for two or three days. UOASTED WICHITA. Brown Was Invincible-Allowed One Score, a Home Bon. Wichita, Kan., May 8.

Regardless of the necessities of the nation, the political fences must be at tended to. Hence the plans for an ad journment of congress by July 1. But President Wilson is likely to have a word or two to say in the premises, if congress fails to promulgate his legis lative program by that date. Nor can there be any doubt about the bravery of the members of the House of Lords.

THE -SUE-AWD-SIX' PLAH. Emphatic approval of the "slx-and-six" plan of school organisation urged, by the Inland Emptre Teachers' asso ciation at their Spokane meeting is given by Dr. P. P; Claxton, United States commissioner of education. "I know of no valid reason for the pres ent plan of eight and four years of school," declares Dr. Claxton. "There should be six years of elementary school and six years of high school. the high school period being divided Into two sections of three years each. There are, many reasons ,t or Jhe change. Children 12 and it years old are at the beginning of the transition period between childhood and youth they should not be kept doing elemen tary work. At present the pupils ta most school systems mark time to a large extent through the seventh and eighth grades. This is especially true where the methods of the elementary schools are carried through these and the children are taught by women grade teachers. With a sixth-year elementary school it would-be easily possible to promote the teachers with the children from grade to grade, thus gaining the large value that comes from teachers and children remaining together until the teacher knows the needs of the children, their strength. and their weakness, and can build in telligently on all the work of previous years. "Furthermore, to begin the high school with the seventh grade will make much easier the departmental work, which should begin at least this low down. It will also make it much easier to begin Work in the high school subjects as foreign languages. constructive geometry, and real litera ture, at this point where they should be begun. The study of languages, especially of modern languages, should be begun in a practical way before children have passed the time when they can learn in this way. This plan will also make It possible to Introduce manual training, domestic science, and various forms of vocational work two years earlier than they are now begun. "Our secondary BChool work is now at a great disadvantage as compared with the work done in the Gynasien and Realschulen in Germany, the Lycees of France, and the socalled public schools of England. By giving six years to the high school, the boys and girls who -go to college may easily have, on admission to college, a much larger amount of mathematics, lan guages, and other subjects than they now have. I feel quite sure that by an arrangement of this kind and a lit tle more care in the preparation and selection of teachers you may gain for most children two years in the twelve. "The division of the high school Into two sections of three years each will make easier a second differentia tion of Work at the end of the first three high school years. "At present only about one-fourth of the children enter the high school. The compulsory school age in most states corresponds quite closely with the elementary school period. Parents and children are thereby confirmed In the idea that the 'elementary educa tion is all that is needed. Beside, .the break between the elementary school and the high school at this time sug gests leaving school and makes it easier. If the break came at 12 or 13 the. great majority of children would be in the high chool, doing high school work under high school .condi tions, and probably a much larger proportion of them would continue In school than under present conditions."

Doubtless,' in your reading and as sociations, you have been often re minded that most of the really big things, the great ideas and the Im mortal thoughts, were born close- to" nature that they came from the country, says the Woman's World for June. Most of all progress had and has its roots In rural life. So here, too, we find the conditions of saner living. Ws cannot do without cities: they are magnificent and stupendous, but they grind out human life as mer cilessly as any machine and have no time to bother with those who cannot keep the pace. Fine Institutions? Oh, yes. But what is a hospital to a broken spirit? What is a library fe ttle man or woman who loses hold-? And what are a'l the charities to the family that has begun to slip back?. The city cannot bother with such cases as these. But you may say that wages are better in the city, that life moves more quickly, that opportunities are larger. Granted in part, but not en tirely. Life certainly has more ex-' citement in cities, but excitement all the time is bad for any human being. City wages are larger, and continuous changes give more opportunities for advancement, but at the end of the year, when the average city worker counts up, there is. a different story. It has cost more not only in money but in wear and tear.. Did you ever realize how every city is crowded with doctors and thousands of them have their automobiles? City people pay not only for he doctors and the auto mobiles but for the drug stpres and all the abounding exhibits of health cost. It is an interesting problem which your own eyes may see and your own mind grasp. In the country the prizes may not be so glittering, but on the whole, life is fuller and happier and more worth while, and with the increase that has come to the farms and the small towns it is a close question as to the larger profit. As a business proposi tion, the country today proves itself. As a general living proposition, there Is no serious comparison. rThe conn try means fresh food, time for the do ing of work, the health and Joy of children, the delights of old sat, fit ting Its rocking chairs and its corners. and all the other things that count In making the years ripe and fruitful.

Time was veering swiftly toward the little old lady's; golden wedding day. little old lady's goMen wedding day. The big house, from cellar to garret, dif fused an air of suppressed excitement of subtle secrecy, tense with the hurry ing of eager ft signaling eyes and scheming heads that clung together in Fa daring conspiracy of love. Through it all the little old lady tried to wena her way with an everyday air of ordi nary unconcern.. She pretended not to see the suddenly disrupted, whispered conferences that occurred whenever she entered a room; appeared to take no notice of the miscellaneous boxes ard bundles that 'were forever being whisked from under her eyes, wUh the crud.t of apologies, before she had a chance to lnnwt them, and was seem- ingrv de-it when all manner of trades people called on the telephone ior vari ous members of the family who .Uways arswered In low guarded tones, usually contriving to switch, the call onto an other telephone, away from the little old lady. The strangest' part of It all was that whenever- she nodded In her chair one of the children, or foolish, adorable old dad himself, was always mysteriously hovering near the chair when she awoke. If she opened her eyea with placid unexpectedness a beloved, solici tous face would be withdrawn In mo mentary confusion, or an equal-to-the-occasion voice would observe with dis simulating calm: "Why, dearest mother mine. I thought you fast asleep, and was Just about to prop your pillow a bit' Then came the' wonderful day ttsalf when the little nM ladv sat in state be side her great, big foolish, old grandad who looked twenty jsaars less than his age to receive congratulation ana beautiful.-, extravagant keepsakes from the children and the children's chil dren. "The big thurprlth ith not to be given until thlth afternoon," gravely lisped three-year-old Dorothy, the little old lady's favorite grandchild. After luncheon Margaret and her hus band invited the little old lady and grandad for a ride in their new limou sine. The little old lady was told what to wear. "The new gray silk, grandma, dear, and the. point-lace collar, and the cameo brooch that Katherine gave you." "Oh, dear! Oh, dear!" demurred the little old lady with' well-feigned petulance, "if .only you children didn't always want to be dressing me up as though I were thirty years younger! Have ye no pity for my gray hair and 'my tottering frame?" she asked with good-humored toler ance, more spry than her devoted, at tendant daughters in reaching for her bonnet box and wrenching the shoe- buttoner from the hands of the flus tered maid indignantly asserting that she had always buttoned her own shoes until there was so much money in the family that nobody knew what foolishness to invest in next. Margaret and Katherine wanted to help the independent little old lady doyn the stairs; but she scurried past them toward. rhet. library. Where she found her foolish old grandad nod ding over a. na'Per. iBe caught the twinkle in her! eyes and gallantly of fered his arm. i lz As the car glided, out into the coun try places tfhe little Xld lady squeesed grandad's ,atjn in an .ecstasy of. de light.

That white'' gate there?" she cried excitedly giving irrandad-arm another squeeze, and pointing, child like with a Jumping forefinger.: "Will I ever have a real garden again?" .she aighed, her wiry little body nestling -closer., to grandad's in the luxurious depth of the leathered upholstery. v- Margaret furtively nudged her bus- band, but when she spoke to the lit tle old lady it was with mild reproach in her clear, crisp tones. "Why, mother, dear, didn't gran-- dad have that beautiful roof-garden made purposely for you?" "T-yes-s." reluctantly assented the little old lady. "But," she added boldly, "a garden isn't a garden with out neighboring gardens and trees and a brook somewheres, and a long, winding road, that leads to the woods or the hills."- "Here we are." called Margaret's husband, briskly springing through the opened door and turning to help the others. "Why. daddy, dear." chimed the little old lady, perking her head from side to side in an effort to see all parts of the red-gabled, white-sided and green-shuttered cottage at once, "it looks exactly like our shabby old' honeymoon nest all done over." "Why, bleas my heart, so it does!" "Tour acting' hasn't improved a bit," good-naturedly chided the little old lady under her breath. She stopped to pick a bloom from the Rose o' Sharon at the. gate. A mist descended upon her blinking eyes as she placed it in grandad's coat. Inside the children and -the .chil dren's children pounced upon' her from all corners with huge shrieks of delight, breathlessly demanding how she liked her surprise, leading her from room to room and wanting co know if everything wasn't furnished exactly the same as It was when she was a bride only better, of course. "Oh, how happy w were in the little house!" thought the little old lady, but she wisely held her tongue and said nothing of the treasured memories of the past. And yet ev erything was so wonderfully like and yet so unlike the home she had come to as a brid,e fifty years ago. "I Just couldn't stand it if you weren't here," faltered the little old lady, dabbing her eyes with a fragile square of duchesse lace, while she looked up .at r dad towering above, grinning like a schoolboy. Tou are to receive here tonight. Wo sent out all the invitations with this address," explained Katherine. gently, "and after' tonight you may life here In peace.

Evening Chat BT RUTH CAMERON. Inverted Pride." Was there over a human being who was completely free from pride?. I doubt It. If you And someone who Isn't proud of the things people usually take pride in. he is probably- proud of the opposite.- And this inverted pride is often more intense than the ordinary va riety. A friend ofsinine has no patience whatever with the people- who are always boasting1 abdut .their aristo cratic ancestors.- "I frankly acknowl edge that my ancestors', were men of the soil' she likes to say "There wasn't an aristocrat among them." I know she thinks she is .splendidly free from pride on the subject of an cestory. But she isn't. For she boasts Of her plebean origin Just as frequently' and with Just as much pride, as her aristocratic neighbors, and rather more aggressively than they. Again. I know a woman who looks scornfully down upon the kind of pride that exults in wealthy friends. Toadying Is to her one of the seven deadly sins. She would scorn to" make friends with anyone, because' he was Wealthy; and so she goes to the op posite extreme and is actually rude and disagreeable when she is brought into contact with any person of wealth. And of course she is as proud as uncn or ner rudeness. Incidentally she is proving Just what she denies, namely, that wealth is of great- consequence to her.- If it were not, why should she set apart these people from the rest of her acquaintances by her manner of treat' ing them. If wealth did not really matter to her she would reject or ac cept them on their own merit Just as she does her other friends. Another form of inverted pride Is that of the person who hates flattery and rushes to the opposite extreme of unnecessary and orten offensive frank ness. I know a man of this sort who goes about making rude and uncalled for comments on his friends' annear- ance, clothes,--cotialmc to.Jiedlesaa to say, ne is as proud of bis rudeness as any flatterer ever could be- of his diplomacy. When he says "I -never. natter," pride sticks out all over him. I believe it was Plato to whom Diogenes boasted that he was abso lutely free from any kind of pride. No, answered Plato, "you're proud vi your own numiiny. We all seem to need to believe our selves superior In some direction. Pride of one sort -or another Is as necessary to- our, seir respect as air to our lunga Let it, then, be of tha ria-ht sort.

(Continued Prom Page One.lL tlon. early today, an adequate rein forcement of the command of General Funston at Vera Cruz, in order to carry out any movement that might be necessary into the interior of Mex ico. The question of placing a force of Americans in Vera Crus that would be strong- enough to defend that port against any attack or to undertake a possible campaign against Mexico City, was later laid before the presi dent and his cabinet by Secretary of war Garrison. Decision of war department offi cials that reinforcements were needed at Vera Cms, was reached at the late conference of Secretary Garrison and the general staff last night. Secretary Garrison called the-conference after receiving a cipher tele gram from Vera Crux. This was de livered to him at the White House. where he was attending the wedding of the president's daughter. He left the festivities and summoned his aides to the war department. Among dispatches received was one which reported the firing of two oil wells at TamDico. The nrotection of American lives and property. it was statea, was the prime motive behind the determination of army- and navy officers that the American forces in Mexico should be reinforced. Garrison Declines to Talk. Secretary Garrison declined to d's cuss the Mexican situation today nor would he comment on his conference with the staff officers last night fur ther than to say that he laid before tnem a report from enerai Funston. In this report, it was said. General Funston. had embodied accounts brought to Vera Cruz by refugees ar riving from Mexico City. concerning the situation in the. capital. Mr. Oar- riaon would not reveal the character of these reports. "All I can say Is that no additioral tioon movements have been ordered. said Secretary Garrison, adding that he would make, no prediction concern ing possible future orders.. Officials point out that neither the United States nor General Huerta has yet entered into any formal armistice. What occurred was this: The mediators suggested that hos tilities should be suspended during the penoa of negotiations. To this Sec retary Bryan replied that it was ns burned there would be a suspension of Hostilities except to repel attack. General Huerta's answer was under stood to be an .acceptance, but the ex set terms have not been given out. Mr. Bryan, has several times pointed out that this did not constitute a for mal armistice but only an assumption that hostilities would be suspended except to resist aggression. Article VII. of the Hague convention, of which tne united states and Mexico are signatories, provided specifically on troop movement pending mediation. as follows: "Article VH -The- acceptance of mediation cannot, unless there be n agreement to the- contrary, have-' the effect of interrupting, delaying or hin dering mobilisation or other measures or preparation for war. "If mediation occurs after the commencement of hostilities It causes no interruption to the military oper ations in progress unless there be an agreement to the contrary."" Qaote International Law To what -extent the nresent ausaen- aion at Vera' .Cruz operates. under these rules appears., therefore, to. de pend largely on the construction of the inrormal understanding that it was assumed hostilities would be sus pended except to repel attack. Leading authorities on internatior-a! law hold that an armistice, truce or suspension of hostilities should be def- lntte and exact, and not Implied. One of the leading authorities, Halleck. says: "Such a general suspension of hos tilities can only be made by the sov ereignty of the state, either directly or by authority specially delegated. Such authority Is never implied.' and the enemy Is bound tot see that the agent Is' specially authorized to bind his principle." When an armistice is formally agreed to, the authorities hold that "during its pendency neither party may engage in any military work, op eration or movement, at least upon the immediate theater of war." This, however, 4s limited to 'the "theater of war," and it is added: "Each party may, in its own Juris diction,, do with its armed forces whatever it could do in time of peace. Fortifications can be built or put in order, vessels fitted out, troops raised and trained and warlike stores man ufactured and collected. Troops can be moved about from one part of the country to another with the- exception of the actual area -of hostilities." This. latter applies only when a for mal armistice is in operation and it is an open question as to what the con dition is when there Is no formal armistice, but only an assumption that hostilities will be suspended, ex cept to repel attack.. Hoerta's Complaint. Mexico City, May 8. Estava Ruiz, acting, minister of foreign relations. has complained to the South Ameri can mediators that American troops were landing in Vera Crus and that other military preparations were In progress there, thus breaking the armistice. In reply, the South American medi ators have wired, it is announced, that they will -make representations re garding the. matter to President Wil son. The foreign. office has Issued a statement thanking the mediators. It ,yai "The.

Dry Girls If you want plenty of thick, beautiful, glossy, silky hair, do by all means get-rid of dandruff, for It will starve your hair and ruin it if you don't. It doesn't do much good to try to brush or wash it out. The only sure way to get rid of dandruff is to dis solve it, then you destroy it entirely. To do this, get about four ounces of ordinary liquid arvon; apply it at night when retiring; use enough to moisten- the scalp and rub it in gen tly with the finger tips. By morning, most if not all, of your dandruff will be gone, and three or four more applications will completely dissolve and entirely destroy every ingle sign and trace of it. Tou will find. too. that all itching and digging of the scalp will stop, and your hair will be silky, fluffy, lustrous, soft, and look and feel a hundred times better. Tou can get a liquid arvon at any drug store. It is inex pensive and four ounces is all you will need, no matter how much dandruff you have. This simple remedy never fails. Adv. INTER OCEAN SMS.

Common garden sage brewed into a heavy tea, with sulphur and alcohol added, will turn gray, streaked and faded hair beautifully dark and lux uriant; remove every bit of dandruff, stop scalp itching and falling hair. Mixing the Sage Tea and Sulphur recipe at home, though is troublesome. An easier way is to get the ready-to-use tonic, costing about 50 cents a large bottle, at drug stores, known a-i "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair Rem edy," thus avoiding a lot of muss. While wispy, gray, faded hair is not sinful, we all desire to retain our youthful appearance and attractive ness. By darkening your hair with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur, no one can tell, because it does it so naturally, so evenly. You just dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time; by morning all gray hairs have disappeared. After an other application or two your hair be comes beautifully dark, glossy, soft and luxuriant and you appear years younger. Adv.

The transfer of the pa pers was announced shortly after George Wheeler Hlnman, holder of the majority of Inter Ocean bonds, had bought the Inter Ocean for $500, ooo at a receiver's sale In the federal court. The two papers will be merged and published as the Record Herald. W. W. Chapin, formerly in charge of the San Francisco Call, will be asso ciated with Mr. Keeley in the manage ment of the papers, according to the announcement. Mr. Chapin, It was said, will manage the business affairs and Mr. Keeley the editorial depart ments. Mr. Keeley, it was said, would sever his connection with the Tribune at once. The Inter "Ocean was founded in 1865 as the Republican, with Charles A. Dana as editor. Dana left within a year, and after the fire of 1871, the Republican was reorganized as the Inter Ocean with J. Toung Scammon i as proprietor. In 1873. Frank W. Pai mer of Des Moines, Iowa, purchased the stock and became editor in chief, and in 1875 a new corporation with William Penn Nixon at its head bought the property. H. H. Kohlsaat. Charles T. Terkes, George Wheeler Hinman and again Mr. Kohlsaat suc ceeded in turn to the ownership of the paper until it was thrown into the hands of a receiver several weeks ago. The Record Herald is the develop ment of combinations of three papers. The Daily Times was formed in 1854 and four years later the Chicago Her ald appeared owned by Cyrus H. Mc Cormick. In 1860 McCormick bought the Times and consolidated the two papers as the Chicago Times-Herald. A year later Wilbur F. Storey pur chased the paper and dropped the word Herald from its name. In 1881 Frank W. Palmer started another Herald, which in 1894 was combined with the Times, which again became the Times-Herald and was sold to Herman H. Kohlsaat. In 1901 the Times-Herald was combined with the Record, owned by "Victor F. Law- son, and became the Record-Herald. Mr. Kohlsaat retained control of a majority of the stock, however, until its sale in 1902 to Frank B. Noyes. who in 1910 returned the editorship to Mr. Kohlsaat. In 1913. Mr. Lawson obtained control of the paper. On April first, Mr. Lawson notified the holders of Record-Herald bonds, valued at $2,500,000, that on May first he would turn over his $3,000,000 stock in the paper to them. A com mittee of bond holders was named which arranged the sale of the paper to Mr. Keeley. BULL MOOSE MEET. A State Conference Is Being; Held at Kansas City, Mo. Kansas City. May 8.

New York, May 8. The adverse criticism of the London press, follow ing statements by Sir Clements Mark ham on the question as to whether Colonel Roosevelt really 'discovered a new river in Brazil, has resulted in geographers in this city coming to the defense of their fellow countryman, or at least counseling that Judgment be withheld until further details are received.

Nearly all rheuma tism, headaches, liver trouble, ner vousness, dizziness, sleeplessness and urinary disorders come from sluggish kidneys. The moment you feel a dull ache In the kidneys or your back hurts or If the urine is cloudy, offensive, full of sediment, irregular of passage or at tended by a sensation of scalding, stop eating meat and get about four ounces of Jad Salts from any pharmacy; take a tablespoonful In a glass of water before breakfast and in a fe.aays your kidneys will act fine. llAm tu. mousatts is- made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia. and has been used for gen erations to flush and stimulate the kidneys, also to neutralise the acids In urine so it no longer causes Irrita tion, thus ending bladder weakness. Jad Salts is inexpensive and cannot injure; makes a delightful effervescent lithia-water drink which everyone should" take now and -then to keep the kidneys clean and active and the blood urine thereby avoiding serious kidney complications. Adv. TO STTZSTIiHl IT. Legislative to Amend fJt&Uttes Xaw. Plans for the strengthening-of the Kansas public utilities commission act will be considered tonight at a meeting of a special committee appointed by the 1913 legislature to draft new pro visions and report to the 1915 session. At noon today nose of-the members of the legislative committee bad. offered specific suggestions .regarding the pos sible proposed changes in the law and none of the members of the "present utilities commission had offered a plan for improving the law. The meeting tonight will be held in the parlors of the. Throop hotel and Senator J. D. Joseph of Butler county, chairman of the legislative committee., will preside. It was Senator Joseph who proposed the special committee and he. was- named as chairman of the Joint committee composed of three members: from the senate and three from the house. Joseph, it appears, is the only person with a real suggestion for remedying the present law. possibly Senator Joseph had nis pro posed changes in mind when he pro posed the special committee. However, he will likely offer his Ideas at to night's meeting and the remaining five members of the committee will tell him what they think, of the matter. To begjn with. Senator Joseph thinks tne uuuues law- neeas a genenu reno vating, overhauling and fumigating. He. would redraft .the entire, utilities law and offer .it to the 1915 legislature for approval or rejection. That there might be nothing overlooked. Senator Joseph would '-call to the aid of the special committee four of whose members are lawyers experts from the state schools. He would gather to gether the men who have read much about the management of railroads and telegraph and telephones and -other public utilities -and; would incorporate their ideas Into law. That is the gen eral plan of Senator Joseph, as under stood in Topeka. But the plan doesn't seem -to meet with general approval and some of the lawyer members of the committee are willing to go to war on the Question. There is objection on the part of the lawyers to the plan of student ex perts trying to write the utilities law in an effort to make theories fit daily practice. Then a few of the members of the committee do not believe the entire law should be rewritten. They would study the 1 weak places in the law and remedy these defects with necessary amendments. One of the questions which the committee will consider will be the extension of the 'Jurisdiction of the commission in the regulation of util ities. Perhaps the legislature will be asked to give the commission juris diction over municipal owned light and water plants and extend the pow ers of the commission to care for such cases as the "'Kansas City stock yards controversy. That, however, is a matter to- be considered. Judge' Foley; chairman of the Kan sas commission, is. not in Topeka to day, but it is probable that Commis sioners Kinkle and Cable will" be- asked to appear before the committee and discuss needed remedies in the pres ent law. At the offices of the com mission today it was stated that the members of the commission had nr.t conferred regarding proposed changes in the law and'.Jhat no recommenda tions or suggestions had been agreed Upon. The member of 'the. legislative com mittee are: Senators Noah L. Bow man. Anderson county;, J. D. Joseph,' Butler county; J. H. Stavley, Osage county, and William Barrett, Pratt county? 8. -N. -Brewsteiv Doniphan county, and Frank Chase, Jackson county, on. behalf of the house. SUES FIANCE'S ESTATE Woman Gets tsfcrncnt for a $3,000 -.Annuity. London, May As a sequel to a breach of promise of marriage. Judg ment was given today to Miss Derryle Elizabeth Law. of Atlanta, Ga. in a suit brought to enforce payment ot a settlement of 83,000 a year, made in her favor, by the late Captain Pat rick Hamilton, a British army avia tor, who was killed in a flying acci dent; at Stevenage, England, in No vember, 1912.

IV Soon '-after the captain's death the present suit was brought against his executors, in the chancery court. A letter produced during the hearing. was sent by Captain Hamilton's moth- j er to Mrs. Law, ana suggested mat tne sole object of Miss Law was to ob tain money. Miss Lav said that Captain Hamil ton had told her. over the telephone, that he wished to break off the en gagement. He gave as his reason tha they would have only a bucketful of debts to live on. This was the last she heard from him, and she asserted that-she had never released him from his engagement. AFTL FI.1 liEFOHT. 4r Fire Marshal -Klxes Total loss for tbsnsajb. S21S.TIS.

Following are extracts from' a letter written by a high school student pro testing against the "all day" session plan for the high school which the board of education has approved for next fall: "The most efficient system, the most democratic system, and the system de signed to produce the best results is that which enables a working student to have the same advantages, same hours, and same studies as any other student without interfering with his work.

In most of the small towns it has been a partial success as those who at tend the high school there are those who can afford to do so without en gaging in outside work. If anyone wishes to work his way through school he must go to the city where employ ment is-more plentiful and opportuni ties for outside study better. Mr. Wil son forgets when he tries to pattern Topeka after the large cities that there night schools are available where a working boy or girl may gain an edu cation and still do his work. "It has been suggested that the ma jority of the working students in the Topeka high school are not compelled by circumstances to work and have no occasion to work except through the desire to procure spending money. In our opinion the sooner a young man learns to work the better.

Beacon, regarding addresses by To peka. women at the convention of the State Federation of Women's Clubs It is the power of the gifted speaker and writer. Mrs. McCarter. to lift to a higher level of life and In her ad dress last night she did this in the way she painted for them in word pic tures that .which leads to the finest of art. that belongs to each and every one, the art of life. It was the vision of the possibilities of the power of re-creation through imagination that she brought to her listeners. She claimed that creu- had not been given the dreamer, tlie imaginative person, for only n dreams are greater things horn. "Everything must be created first in the mind," saij Mrs. McCarter. "The power- of imagination is one of the fine arts. l,ack of the cathedral is the picture of the structure in the architect's mind. 'The pen can give the picture that the reader can re create into a picture even greater than that imagined, by the writer. "Every pioneer had in mind the pic ture of what must be done. It was such a picture that changed Wichita from a bunch of mud huts into the beautiful city it is today. "A Kansas university professor thirty-five years ago said the mind had reached its highest, it could ac complish no more. That man is dead now, he was dead then." It was the "vision splendid" that the speaker painted of the taking of American Ideals into Mexico, into the Orient and other countries of the Western Hemisphere. "This is the day of miracles." she continued, pointing out how dreams bad changed the kind of warfare of today from that of yesterday. "It has been the God-given vision that makes it possible that airships today fly over Mexico City, Huerta and the whole job-lot of them down there. History, is the fulfillment of prophecy and vi sion. The real land of dreams is America. It was the vision of broad er humanity in the mind of McKinley that directed him through the Spanish-American war. "Men and women are born in ro mance," was her thought that awak ened her listeners to the fact that thev could still have the spirit of romance of the girl and boy, that it has not been killed in the routine duties f the home nor in the hard grind of -he business world. They could- find it within the printed page. There was considerable agitation regarding the question of sex hygiene in the schools and out of the schools at the afternoon session. There was r.o sitting on the fence in this matter. The women were either for or against the teaching of this subject in tl.e school or at home. The agitation followed an address by Mrs. H. O. Garvey of Topeka on "I It the Duty of the Public School to Assume the Responsibility of the Child's Physical and Moral Welfare?" The women were to have but three minutes for discussion. Time was called again and again by the chair man, but there was no more stopping a lot of mothers from expressing themselves on this subject when they got started than to stop the flow of Niagara over its mighty rocks.

AH IwBIGOfl". Dr. Uardfaif Diws'if Against School Expenses.

Cites Case of Eight German Books for One Term. '"An "indictment against the expenses of the present high school system was voiced today by Dr. .Eva Harding. Hardships are undergone by hundreds of families struggling to send their children through the "public" school. A story Is told of. a Topeka mother who went deeply in debt to pay the heavy graduation expenses of her youngest daughter. High school stu dents go hungry in order to buy books. The daughter of a poor preacher with' six children feels that she cannot meet the commencement bills and may be forced to give up .her diploma. The' system, states Dr. .Harding, is ''an outrage." The matter, the doctor declares, has been brought to the attention of members of the .board of education, with whom specific instances of pitiful cases have been filed.. Eight German books,' Including a grammar costing $1.50 are required in one of the high school courses In two terms nine months according to Dr. Harding. It was this fact that caused the-minister's daughter to de spair of completing the work. Six of the books are fiction- Minna Von Barnhelm, Leberect Huhnchen, "Her mann und Dorothea- with glossaries in the back. In addition, a German dictionary is required. The books cost from 30 to 60 cents. "Why not 'study German newspap ers?" queried the doctor, "that would be practical at least. Why have glos saries, full of repetitions, when a dic tionary has been bought? There is nothing for the teacher to do. The work is pre -digested. It beats the seven readers and one primer, for merly required in a year and a half at the grades. This system is out rageous. People can't live. Condi tions and expenses are worse under the present school administration than they have ever been before." The doctor asserts that one course requires each pupil- to purchase 40 cents worth of India ink "enough to cover the state of Kansas." The approach of June brings to mind the expenses of a high school graduation which, increasing year by year, actually strike terror to dozens of sensitive girl students who long to do as the "other girls do." Many girls are allowed $76 a low estimate to cover commencement: expenses. The girl wants a graduation gown, a class day gown, a suit for Baccalaureate Sunday, engraved invitations, cards to place in the Invitations, flowers, long gloves, white slippers, a senior pin. an annual, a class picture. She is urged to -purchase the latter' items, and must have a complete wardrobe unless she would be conspicuous. "I'm not going to the baccalaureate sermon," said one girl. who had won honors in several subjects, "because I have nothing to wear." Such cases are tragedies at 18. Elim inating the question of suitable -clothes the book problem faces. In stern real ity, every poor family thajt is striving to give Its boy or girj the advantage of a high school education. The high school,'- said the doctor. "I know of books and reference books, notebooks;) Dig rooks, little books, cheap books and books costing S10,; "I know of a .mother who stayed up half the night, making pies to sell, in order to send, her girl through high schblo." said, the doctor, "I know of a boy who wouldn't allow his mother to slave, and gave up the course; of a girl who .wanted to teach, but was refused, because she had been unable to complete her studies; of a dozen girls who are working, for their board, and worrying over the book question. These conditions should not be al lowed to exist." The question becomes more poig nant every year as the'value of a high school course, together with the' cost of getting one, increases. The fam ilies who go in debt, the mothers who skimp and save, the students who do without proper food are clamoring for a change in the system. "It is an out rage," reiterates Dr. Harding, and she echoes the wails of them all. Was Aground Two Days. Duluth, May" 8. After being aground,, near Two Harbors, since tn....

A long cipher telegram from General Funston at .Vera Crus that stirred the general Stan- of the army into a conference that did not break up until nearly mid night was to be placed before the pres ident and his cabinet today by .Secre tary, Garrison. While details of the dispatch were not given out it 1 was understood to contain reports taken to General Funston by refugees from Mexico City. Secretary Garrison said today no aggressive movement of any kind by the American forces was or dered, yet it was known that high of ficials of the war department were anxious to station at Vera Cruz or on chips within striking distance of that Table Supplies Pure fresh, that will enable you to enjoy your Sunday dinner.

Probably 50,000 or 60,000 men would be required. While the meeting of the general staff was being discussed in official cir cles today, the -mediators proceeded steadily with the program for their conference with representatives of the Huerta government and the United States at Niagara Falls, Canada, May 18. Announcement of the personnel of the American mission was expected to be made within the next few days. Among the several names heard as possible members of the delgation were Justices Day and Pitney, of the supreme court,-Circuit Judge-Gray of Delaware and Counsellor Lansing of the state department. Reports that the South American envoys intended to weigh the constitutionalist' issue in the Mexican problem were confirmed today. It was said that despite the self-elimination of Carranza from mediation preliminaries, the rebel side of the sit uation would be taken up in plans for Mexico's pacification. How far execu tion of that plan might proceed re mained problematical. Nevertheless the envoys continued hopeful, despite Carranza's declaration that he' consid ered any attempt to settle Mexico's in ternal troubles as beyond the range of diplomatic activity. Fear of an Outbreak. Army officials today were anxious" to make no move that might embarrass the progress of preliminary mediation negotiations. However, they were known to be desirous of preparedness for any eventuality. Army officers feared the situation at Vera Cruz might become desperate in the event of an anarchistic outbreak in Mexico City or should the federal forces hov ering beyond Funston's outposts launch an attack Irrespective of Huer ta's declaration of a truce with the United States. Bluejackets could be landed to re inforce the seven thousand troops and marines under General Funston if there should be a federal attack. They could easily hold the city proper, it is believed but to protect positions out side the town up to the site of the waterworks, more infantry is believed to be required. Whether additional forces would be sent down the east coast could not be foreseen today. The president and Secretary Bryan, are be lieved to oppose any military activity at this time that might embarrass the South American envoys. Outside the continued heavy fight ing at Mazatlan, there were no reports of additional rebel aggression today. The three main constitutionalist armies were preparing for the next blow in their campaign when Car ranza moved his seat of government from Chihuahua to Torreon. Villa, rebel chief, informally appealed for a suspension of the embargo on arms at Rio Grande ports. He was quoted as asserting that would hasten Mexico's pacificatidn. Rumors of the fighting at Mazatlan crystallized into a report that the town had fallen into the rebels hands. Constitutionalists at Juarez, however, did not credit it. A spectacular feature of the battle was the hurling of a bomb from a rebel aeroplane. It fell into a street of the besieged city, -kiUing four persons and wounding eight. Campaign in the South. -The rebel campaign against Salina Cruz, Acapulco and other west cities was to be hurried, according to re ports from constitutionalist camps in the west today. One rebel officer was quoted as saying that Carranza's forces hoped to get as much territory as possible before the meeting of the mediators. That report was variously interpreted. In some quarters it was believed Carranza still might submit a brief of his issues to the envoys. Officials today sought additional in formation of the reported killing of two Knglishmen and an American sub ject in Guadalajara. Confirmation of the reports was lacking. That rumor was the only news of lawlessness in Mexico's interior, although the fate of Acting Consul Silliman, reported to have been arrested near San Luis Potosi, still caused uneasiness. The exodus of foreigners from Mex ico City continued. Six hundred American refugees were on their way to Puerto Mexico under the protection of the Brazilian flag. Nelson O'Shaughnessy'a report sub mitted to Secretary Bryan was an in teresting feature in the day's develop ments. It was believed, the American charge would outline to Mr. Bryan the strength of the Huerta regime and teU of the Incidents that culminated in receiving his passports from the provisional president. Daniels Makes a Statement. Essentials of the American policy in Mexico up to the present time were reiterated today in a statement by Secretary Daniels, replying to com plaints against the withdrawal of United States warships from the river at Tampico and to criticism of the department's refusal to take soma refugees back to Tampico, after they bad been removed from the danger zone. The. statement declared that the department had considered as Its 620-622 Kansas Avenue pre-eminent duty the prevention of loss of life and the rescue of foreign ers and Americans in peril. The pro tection of property beyond range of the navy's guns was next to impossi ble, the statement declared, "but so far as has been possible the navy has endeavored to cool the enthusiasm 'if an excited populace by the sight of the visible power for reprisal that is displayed uy the guns of our warships lying as they, are today in practically every port in the east and west coasts." Secretary .'Daniels' statement, ex-i plained that when the occupation of Vera Cruz was decided upon tht American warships at Tampico wen ordered to reinforce Admiral Fletch er's squadron. Events moved s swiftly, however, that the order was rescinded. Then the American ship might have proceeded up the river to ward Tampico but Rear Admiral Mayo refrained upon the urgent re quest of the British naval command -r that he be allowed to remove the cit izens of the United States for the sake of the safety of all foreigners. It was feared that after the Vera Cruz seizure the sight of American war ships might inflame mobs to out breaks in which no foreigner's life would be respected. All Safe at Tampico. Declaring that practically every foreigner and American in, the Tam pico district is now safe, as well as foreign property interests. Secretary Daniels states that it seems almost un necessary to defend a course "which has achieved such results." Secretary Daniels' statements con clude: "Tampico is now a closely be leagured city, exposed to constant at tacks from the outside from a contin ually augmenting enemy. The consti tutionalist forces, according, to all re ports, are gradually increasing- In numbers in the territory around about. Whether our efforts at media tion fail or are successful, whether a satisfactory, peaceful adjustment of our difficulties is achieved or not, it would seem to be obvious that Tam pico and Its surroundings will not bs safe for foreigners of any kind dur ing the corning death grapple between the constitutionalists and the federals. "As for the property interests, promises that they will be respected and paid have been made by the con stitutionalist generals who are in practical control of the district in which the oil wells are located. The federals have likewise promised to protect oil wells in any district they may control. It is to be hoped these promises will be kept. If property owners choose to return to Tampico, risking their own lives and the lives of their families, it does not lie in our power to stop them. To deliberately send them there would place upon us the responsibility of their safety. It is difficult to see how any one could reasonably expect us to assume such an awful risk."

PROTEST OF REFUGEES They Urge Protection of Their Prop erty In Mexico. Washington, May 8. Protest by American refugees from Tampicj against the faUure of the United Mates government to afford them pro tection was received today by Sena tor Stone, chairman of the senate for eign relations committee. The refu gees asserted at least three hundred American men and women and chil dren still were in the territory tribu tary to Tampico and fear was enter tained for their' lives. The petition was drafted upon arrival of the refu gees at Galveston. "Since Tampico and the adjacent vicinity is the only portion of Mexico which has been left undisturbed In the republic during the three years' revolution," reads the petition, "we cannot help but. feel that conditions making our exodus compulsory were brought about solely by the fact that our government failed to give us ade quate protection-, at the critical mo ment. "Had one American gunboat been allowed to remain in the harbor tt is believed there would not have been any active demonstration or attempt to destroy property, notwithstan diner the bitter feeling toward Americans. "The properties, large and small, which we have been compelled to abandon, by existing conditions, will be entirely lost unless our government sees fit to protect those properties and give immediate relief, in order that we may return to look aften them our selves. The great number of refugees will be left homeless and destitute and what is true in this respect of the Tampico district, is undoubtedly true of all other portions of Mexico. The failure of our government to take a definite stand at this critical moment will make it impossible for us to ever hope to return. -with safety, to what we nave been forced to abandon."

Vhy Your StonachHurts Some Common-Sense Advice BY A DOCTOR, Pain In the stomach, variously called Indigestion, dyspepsia, flatulence, heart burn, stomach ache, etc, is usually at tributed to some unnatural, abnormal or diseased condition of the stomaeh Itself. Nothing, however, could be farther from the truth. Nineteen times out of twenty the stomach is absolutely healthy and normal, the pain and discomfort being entirely due to the acidity and fermen tation of food which Irritates and dis tends the stomach, althouch if this con dition is allowed to run on. In time the constant irritation of the acid is likely to eat into the stomach walls and pro duce ulcers of the stomach. Medicine is useless In such a case. The acid and fermenting food must be removed by a stomach pump or an emetic, or you must neutralise the acid and stop the fer mentation by taking a teaspoonful of bisurated magnesia in a little water; this latter is far the simpler and the safer method. Bisurated Magnesia al most Immediately neutralises the dan gerous add and by correcting the food contents enables even a tired. weak stomach to digest almost any food with out difficulty.
