attacked him with two knives. Car

OIL the Unlted States
and of Mexico that the presidents Of
the two republics have exchanged
greetings while in Office, and the event
is one of unusual interest because it
will in all probability be the great
Mexican's last trip to American soil.
Twenty-six years ago Diaz came to
the United States, but that was before
his wise rule had made him UNIVERSAL

of the world. This visit will be made
by a ruler whose greatness is a prov
erb, whereas the visit of 1883 was that
merely Of a southern ruler whose
standing among nations was only be-
ginning to be felt as better than that
of the little despots farther southwark.
An added interest is lent by the fact
that the great work to which General
Diaz has given his life is practically
accomplished and that before long
Mexico will have to demonstrate for
herself whether her superiority over
other southern countries is due only to
Diaz or whether she herself deserves
some of the credit.
President Diaz first will visit Mr..
Taft in the city of Ell Paso, Tex. Then
the president. crossing the interna-
tional bridge over the Rio Grande, will
return the call in the quaint little
Mexican village Of Ciudad Juarez.
United States troops will be gathered
at Ell Paso and Mexican troops at Gu
dad Juarez to LEND an official aSnact to
the exchange of formalities.
In FL Paso the president and other
distinguished guests will view a gor-
geous pageant. which will pass the re-
viewing stand at IL o'clock. Bands
and military of both republics will be

will be followed by civic and fraternal

To maintain health, a mature man or

Cats In the NAVY.

The ships of the navy carry more
dogs than cats because the dog is a
better sailor and more easily trained,
but a good many grimalkins go to sea
under the stars and stripes. The dis
cipline of the service is not relaxed in
their favor, and when they become
overfed and lazy they are put ashore
to shift for themselves. A cat does
not stand rough weather so we'll as a

world with ten cats returned with
only one all the rest having died on

There is no question about that

these are, for instance: Extreme
