He has recently written an article concerning the safety of United States capital in that country, and in this he discusses the large part which capital from this countr yhas played in the upbuilding of Mexican industries, especially mines and rail roads. While English capital was first to take hold of these opportu- mites. since the Naximihan invasion the United States has steadily in- creased its activity in the develop ment of enterprises in the Latin re- public, our people being recognized by the Mexicans as allies rather than IS enemies.

DR. DOUGLAS GIVES VALUABLE
 ADVICE ID AMERICAN INVESTORS

American capital was invested in Mexican mines, is now well below the mark His conclusion is that the heavy American Investments are not to be measured solely in dollars and cents, but by their industrial effect upon the people, the concentration of population in certain industrial cen ters under American influence.
 Concerning the possibilities of col lision between the two countries. Dr. Douglas evidently does not think that they are found in the sentiment of the enlightened and the governing classes of the United States and Mex ico. Such troubles are more apt to arise from border contact He says:
 Tt must be admitted that life and property are safe in Mexico to an eminent degree, considering the difh. culty of policing such a rugged coun- tered population. Foreigners have certainly had no reason to complain |of illtreatment. nor of such arbitrary methods being practiced against them as is deemed necessary to the pub lie safety. whether wisely or not, to infiict upon natives who break or are suspected of breaking the law. The greatest reserve, therefore. in speech and action should, as matter of courtesy, be maintained by those who enjoy the privilege and hospitality % literally extended to strangers and their capital. Moreover, the resident from abroad in a foreign land, who imports, together with his capital and skill his native prejudices and points
 of view, is often ill-fitted to be a
 just judge of the virtues and defects
 of the strange people and theil
 stranger customs, into contact witt
 which he is thus temporarily and seldom intimately thrown"

BY Associated Press.

Chicago, May 2I-The theory that
Halley's comet has lost its tail, which
Is still floating in the eastern sky and
Is now generating a new one, was ad
vanced by the Rev. Daniel J. McHugh
professor of astronomy at De Pauw
University. The old tail was forced
away from the comet by the force of
unusual electrical repulsion caused by
the sun spots which were so promi.
nently Wednesday, he thinks.
"It Is my opinion says Prof. Nc.
Hugh, that the comet lost it's tail

are records -of it's having done the

this year. l also believe that there
is not the slightest chance of the
earth's coming in contact with the tail
on this visit.
Combined with the solar repulsion
caused by the sun spots in forcing the
old tail away was the attraction of the
earth. When the old tail broke away

seen in the east Thursday morning

see It this morning, probably because
of the haze. As the old tail no longer
receives fresh gas and energy from
the head of the comet, 1t will disap-
pear In time.
Il saw the comet in the west last
might and it had no tail. This
strengthens my theory that 1t is now
generating new tail, which will be-
come visible in a short time"

Governor Gilchrist's idea of ap-
pointment staff of maids OF honor
for Miss Fleming Is something that
has never before been done at navy

The daughters of the navy who
were selected highly appreciated the
unusual compliment and it is hoped
in navy circles that Governor Gil.
christ's idea will establish a precedent
which will be followed upon similar
occasions in the future.
PINS PRESENTED.
In addition to the courtesy Of
naming several young navy ladies
maids of honor, Governor Gilchrist
also presented to fifty ladies Of Off
GERS families handsome pins, upon
each of which was enameled the great
seal of the state of Florida.

Quite a number of Florida young
