THE WIRELESS

by Secretary Knox to
President Taft-Eplains
American Situation.
Ry limited Press Wire.

BY United Press Wire.
Fort Leavenworth, Kas., Nov. 12-
"The editors in incendiary news
papers will be arrested. The em-
bassy is vigorously protected. / am
informed upon unquestionable author
ity that Anton Rodriguez was born
in Mexico and was an American citi-
zen."
This message picked out Of the air
by the wireless station here presum-
ably sent from Secretary of State
Knox to President Taft aboard the
cruiser Tennessee now somewhere in
the gulf Of Mexico is believed here
today to be the latest development in
the difficulty with Mexico. If authen-
tic, II Is believed that 1t means that
any further fear of the severance of
diplomatic relations between the
United States and Mexico may be
set at rest. Operator Lowe was un-
able to catch the signature but from
its substance It Is thought that II was
meant to acquaint President Taft
with the Mexican situation as It now
stands.
Frequently the local station has
caught messages being flashed along
the Atlantic to gulf cities.

A Fish Out of Water.

Many people think that fish when
taken out Of the water die because air
has a fatal effect on them. The real
reason, however, is that their delicate
gill flaments or membranes become
dry and stick together, SO that no air
can pass between them. Thus they
lose the power to imbibe necessary
oxygen, and the circulation OF their
blood stops. The painful gasping of a
fish out of water is natures effort to
free the passage through the fila
ments.

the job The whipping took place in

good one. The IL year old boy was
sentenced to 60 days in jail, but the
judge stayed the execution providing
he would find work on farm and stay

NO SUMMER FOR A
COUPLE OF DAYS
Present Weather Will Hang Around
Until About Next


WASHINGTON, June 3-The hot
wave from the southwest is advancing
slowly eastward through the gulf
states and is due to reach the coast
within two or three days, according to
the weather forecasters. Until its ar
rival cool conditions and fair skies
are predicted for the eastern states.
The cool conditions prevalent along
the Atlantic coast are attributed to
an overflow from the snowy and freez-
ing conditions in the lake region and
Canadian border and also to the late
ness of the arrival OF the gulf stream
drift. The western hot wave reached
the interior of Texas Yesterday,
where the thermometers recorded 100
degrees in the saade.
