She had been hanging it out Of the
window to give her bird the sun, when
the bottom dropped out The startled
bird was fluttering about the top of it's
prison, and the woman was screaming.
''Oh. he'll fall My poor little birdie!'

cage upside down, so that her pet
could not drop out and be dashed upon

DEPORTATION ADVISED.

The San Francisco Chronicle is strictly right in it's conclusion that deportation of the criminal portion of the Apache nation is the best thing that can be done for the peace of the southwest and for the safety of Lhe ranchers of southwestern New Mexico and southeastern Arizona. It says:
 What is to be done? We can hardly take every adult Apache and shoot him in cold blood, although 'lhe beS- interests of civilization might condone such rude justice, but.the United States in the exercise of its sovereign author ity, may take every Apache and his wife and children and deport them from Arizona, putting them into To- caIity where surrounding civilization will overpower them, and where they will learn thai the arm of the law is long and strong enough to reach them at all times.
 ''Either this or extermination. and there seems to be no alternative. The Apache, as he is today, is an absolute anomoly. He believes in a reign of terror instead of a reign of law. and it is completely inconsistent with the American theory of government that his ideas should be allowed to prevail. The Apache must accept the domina- tion of the law or take the extreme con- sequences"
