an unpleasant occurrence on the
trip.
The teams used by the party were
good roadsters and made the big
drive on time each way. w
The lovers Of fun were many and
they afforded no little amusement
for the more seriously inclined.
Some of the jokers of one of the
teams piled poles, logs and all sorts
OF distractions in the road forcing
those who followed to get out Of
their rigs to clear the way.
Jokes We're played on number Of
teetolers by putting empty bottles in
their carriages and in their luggage
The jokers induced Mr.. M. j. An
derson to tell them funny story.
He commenced but was only fairly
started and far from the humorous
climax when the jokers commenced
a loud guffaw and fairly split their
sides with laughter and it was to all
appearances too funny for anything.
After quiet had been restored Mr..
Anderson was induced to go on but
had not proceeded far when again
his tormentors broke forth in loud
and continuous merriment. BY this
time the noted story teller had
reached the danger point in his re-
sentiment and II was only by prom
ises of good behavior on the part
of his tormentors that they escaped
well merited castigation.
Earl lngals, after breakfast at
Merlin, the first morning out an
nounced that he and Mr.. Bishop
would walk on and their team could
overtake them, but strange to say
the pedestrians turned southeast
from the hotel taking the home trail.
Their friends shouted to them that
they were wrong and pointed out the
Galice road to the west but Ingles
knew that jokers were in evidence
and at first refused to change his
course but finally did. 1t is the
first instance on record of any one
being lost at Merlin.

and sometimes Joined the party who

zELAYA THANKS DIAz
For the Courtesies Extended by the
Officials of Mexico.

Mexico City, Dec. S0.-That President
Diaz gave Jose Santos zelaya little
friendly advice today in regard to the
talking to newspaper representatives was
admitted by Zelaya's secretary tonight
when he returned a card to a newspaper
man with the remark that the x-dictator
of Nicaragua had just adopted a policy
Of refusing to be interviewed and would
have nothing to say for publication for a
period of six days. Just why six days
was named he would not explain.
Zelaya called on the Chef Executive of
Mexico today. Up to that time he receiv-
ed every newspaper man who called at
the hotel. After the interview it was as
if very wide gulf had opened between
him and the corresponding
Zelaya's visit to the national palace
lasted half an hour. He was received by
President Diaz as private citizen. 1t is
believed that after ,Zelaya thanked Presi-
dent Diaz for his allowing him asylum on
the Mexican gunboat affairs in general in
Central America were discussed at some
length.
To friend today the Nicaraguan Wis
itor said that after he had srbeen in Mex
leo for two or three months he would go
to Belgium and at Brussels personally
superintend the education Of his children
1t IS said here today that Helaya intends
to leave the Mexican capital before SUP
day, but the report cannot be confirmed.

THOUSANDS oil SUITS
o Be Brought byp independents
~ Against STANDARD Oil.


Springfield, Mass, Dec. 30.-Several
thousand damage suits against the
Standard Oil Co. of New Jersey are to
be instituted by the Independent oil
refiners, if the United States supreme
court upholds the decision of the cir
cult court for the Minnesota district
ordering the corporation dissolved.
Thomas l.. Hisgen, the Presidential
candidate for the Independence party
in the recent national campaign, who
is now the president of the Independent
Petroleum Marketers' Association, to-
day announced the program under
taken by his organization.
For several months the association
has been given evidence upon which
it intends to institute legal proceedings
against the Standard Oil Co., under
Section 7 of the Sherman antitrust
law, which provides that any person
or company injured by any corporation
may bring action against the injuring
corporation for fourfold damages. The
Independent Marketers have appoints
ed board of three attorneys who will
begin action against the Standard Oil
CO., if the supreme court upholds the
cree of the Minnesota court.
John H. Price of Cleveland will have
charge of the cases in the Middle
West; Richard A. Talbot of this city
will attend to all prosecutions in the
East, while the actions in the West
will be under the direction of some at
torney as yet unnamed, from either
Denver of San Francisco.
