troops are keeping busy at some kind
OF work in the rear of the barracks and
the old cathedral. They deny they are
ut work on Notifications or entrench-
ments, but refuse to state what it is The
attitude of the Mexican authorities shows
very clearly that they do not intend to
give Cutting up under any circumstances
Senior Ramos, chief Justice of Chihua-
hua, with Senior Rincon, the governors
private secretary, were in FL Paso to day
and had a talk with some Of our leading
citizens about the Cutting case. They
could arrive at 10 other conclusion than
that Cutting was guilty of deliberate and
fragrant contempt Of The Mexican court
and the offense was committed on Mexi-
can soil and coming under the Mexican
laws They stated that the publication
made by the prisoner in an FL Paso news
paper did not figure in the matter at all,
except as corroborating the charge of con
tempt based upon other acts. Both gen
tlemen said the question was now the
subject of correspondence between the two
governments and would be settled in the
ordinary course of diplomacy. but that the
government of Mexico could not be scared
into an unconditional surrender.

Concerning the so-Called Century Plant.
mot a bit" replied the g%arrulous old
gentleman, who no longer posed as a
century plant expert now that he was In
the presence of a genuine pulque drinker;
but how about this century business:"
"You Americans have invented the
century plant name. We do not call it a
century plant in Mexico. 1t is not a CEN
fury plant at all, though l observe that
ninety-nine out of every hundred people
who come up here to see these
mezcals seem to think that the plants
bloom when they are just 100 years
old, and | heard one old man telling a
young woman that in Mexico they al
ways put a stone beside the plants, with
the date of their birth carved thereon,
SO that succeeding generations may
know when to expect the flowers
Here the old gentlemen WINGED, for it
was he who had just been telling that
story to a bevy of young girls in white
dresses and Folsom hats.
"The fact is" continued the swarthy
man, that the so-called century plant
some times blooms in ten years, and usu-
ally in about fifty years. Much depends
ON the region in which it grows. In hot
climates and under favorable conditions
it grows quickly and attains its perfect
state. In n climate like this, where it is
cultivated as an exotic, perhaps a hun
dred years may be required TO bring out
the flowers. 1t is another popular error
that after the plant has once doomed 1t
will not bloom again for n hundred
years. As soon as the flowers fall the
plant withers and dies. - Chicago Herald.
