AN AMERICAN UNION.

City Of Mexico April Gel Universal
tonight published telegralns from all over
Central and South America regarding
President DiaZ's utterancts on the Monroe
doctrine in his recent message to Con

President Barrios of Guatemala praises
the statesmanlike tone of the message, and
in Salvador the government is inclined 10
favor an alliance of all American nations

pounded by President Daz.
Honduras newspapers advocate LATIN
American confederation in support of the
doctrine Of no European interference" I"
but excluding the United States and CAD

Nicaragua is disposed to adopt President

Costa Rica's sentiment favors the plan,

ambitious of consolidating her power and
taking under proiectoratc all of Central
America.
President Caro- of Colombia consratu-

THE GIRLS WE KNOW.
They Do Not Turn Toward Their Moth

They Do Not Turn Toward Their MotI
ers Like In Olden Times.
Let any one OF us, for example, look
among the girls Of our acquaintance
and see how many we know who. as
daughters, turn to their mothers as
readily and as naturally as turns
flower to the sun, writes w. Box. How
many do we know? Here and there,
one, yes. But are they in the majority!
We rather find that the average Amer
lean daughter is absolutely independ-
ent of her mother in all but those
things In which she must, Of very ne
cessity and Of her very being. be de-
pendent upon her. By far the majority
Of mothers have not the confidence OF
their daughters, and one needs only TO
be in any position which invites human
confidence to know how true Is such a
statement. The English girl looks to
her mother for counsel and guidance
on every point in her life. Does the
American girl? The life Of French
girl always remains part OF the being
which bore her Does that Of the
American girl? The italian girls life
is known to her mother almost as we'll
even In its most inner thought. as to
the girl herself. Is that Of the Ameri-
can girl? The gospel Of the Swiss girl
is that OF solicitation for her mother,
morning. noon and night. Is 1t the
gospel Of the American girl? The Dutch
girl never dreams Of telling her mother
that she is going to do thus and SO: she
asks II she may. Does the American
girl? In Germany, the daughters first
thought, when she reaches proper
years, is to relieve her mother of every
domestic care and thought. Is 1t the
thought of the American girl? Is there
need that l. or any writer, shall supply
the answers to these questions?
