DIAz MADE OF IRON

Mining Engineer Astonished at

According to h'Nels M. Martin, an
American mining engineer, with head
quarters at chihuahua, Mexico, the re-
public controlled by the astute Diaz is
the place for young, hustling Amer
leans with Capital and an inclination
to work, and work hard.
Mr.. Martin was a guest at the Mer-
chants yesterdays leaving last night for

Mexico.

2 He has, great judgment, and this
judgment is resulting in bringing mill

The mines, plantations and grazing in

and it is American capital that is be-
hind the whole business.
1.-THE recent strikes in Colorado, and
the manner in which the Republican
administration has treated the strikers,
has considerable to do with the exodus
of American capital to- Mexico. | have
met a number of men who say that
they are going to place their money
in Mexican investments, and leave it
there, until such a time as the Amer
lean government cam guarantee them
workmen who will continue at their
work and not strike every few weeks.
''DIaz has absolutely guarded against
every possibility of a strike in any
line of work in Mexico. 1t is impossi-
bic for the workmen to strike for the
next decade, so securely has Diaz pro-
tected investors. At the same time

you must understand, the grade of
common laborer in Mexico is far below
the American brand.

The young soldier has but a few more
months to serve before Uncle Sam will

Fort Smelling, and the charms of a st.

he won her and she conquered him. A

URGE A COMPROMISE
WITH CITY RAIL WAY
Commercial Bodies Favor
Abandonment of Case
Against Company

When the street railway case is next
heard, if ever, it will be in the United
States supreme court on the appeal
of, the city from the decision of Judge
Lochren, in the United States circuit
court, granting restraining order
against interference on the part by the
city.
Corporation Attorney Michael, hold
ing that the case. will be ultimately
heard in the highest court in the coun-
try, will not pushsthe case in the state
court, but will go direct to the supreme
court of the United States and leave
with the high tribunal the question
whether the city has the power to inn
pose a 5 per cent gross earnings tax
and regulate the fare.
A movement has been started in the
Commercial club and in other organi-
zations to secure the abandonment of
the case against the company in its
present status
Michael Declines to Talk
AS to what. attitude he will take, Mr.
Michael declines to say, although he
admits that he has heard of the move
ment to induce the city to stop the
crusade against the company. He does
not say what he will do until the ques-
ton has been brought before the pub
lie and discussed, although his action
in giving notice of appeal and pre-
pairing for the final hearing indicates
what will be his. course if he is not
fanpered by the city council.
Judge Lochren has granted an order
restraining tl1e city from Interfering
railway company Of certain extensions
that have not been authorized by the
city councils and specifically mentioned
by the street railway company in the
case bfolIgtfs The right to make these
particular extensions is primarily in
volved, but the company also contends
that it has the right to construct street
railway lines eoH a, large majority of
the streets, While the city holds that it
is operating. Without a charter or fran
chise and must afpply to the city coun-
ell to secure the lawful use of the
streets.
Compromise Is Doubtful
With such wide difference of opin-
ion it is doubtful if the Commercial
club, the Chamber of Commerce and
other bodies Interested will be able to
bring about compromise on the basis
that the company will submit to the
gross earnings tax if it is given a new
and legal franchise that will not give
the city council the power to reduce the
fare. below 5 cents. It is known that
practically this is the proposition ofsthe
company. ~ 80 plis s..ls,ss-

Each Month From Estate

Judge Kelly yesterday afternoon
confirmed the decision of the probate
court granting Mrs. Genevieve Strauch
the sum of $500 monthly from the es-
tate of the late John L. Strauch, the
money lender.
The action was brought by one of the
creditors of the estate, John P. Uhler,
who claimed that the sum was too
great, in view of the fact that the es-

Fillet lace, beloved of kings and
queens in the sixteenth and seven

curtains and bedspreads and is one of
the fads If not the real craze in the
seasons upholstery and furnishing
offerings. 1t has established the pop
ularity of the soft ecru or natural
toned window draperies which have
almost entirely supplanted dead-white
effects.
Fillet lace has an exceedingly
coarse, square mesh, and the pattern
worked upon 1t is blocked out on
square lines, suggesting the Russian
cross-stitch so popular for neckwear
during the past year. Few conven-
tional patterns are seen in real fillet,
hut the human figure, coatsof-arms,
symbolical utensils and birds and ami
mails are worked into the open net
with startling yet quaint effect.

and torches appear in the simpler de-

remains that fillet is fashionable.

is generally sharp, triangular points
and is used plain, never frilled. The
medallions vary in size from a couple
of inches to twelve or fourteen inches.
and are always square, oblong or
triangular, never round or oval.
The most expensive and, incidental
