ONE MEXICAN WHO CAME BACK
Returned to Topeka After Brief Ex-
perience as a RevolutioTist.


When the revolution in Mexico broke
out, there was a great deal of talk
about the Mexicans employed by the
Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Railway
company returning to their native
country to fight against the govern
ment. Investigation shows that, only a
few returned. These Mexican railroad
ers generally are in sympathy With the
revolutionists, but their interest in the
war is not sufficient to prompt many
OF their number to give up their jobs
to take on the stern duties. of soldiers.
Some railroaders whose families are in
volved in the trouble returned to Mex
leo, but generally the workmen give the
reVolutlonists their prayers and best
wishes, and let it go at that.
Carlo Rosario, a Mexican who left
the Santa Fe month ago to fight with
the Tevolutionists in Chihuahua has
returned and Joined a gang of work
men near Emporia. His father was cap
tin of company of 80 revolutionists
and the son was made a lieutenant in
the same company the day he reached
home. The second day after his enlist
ment, Rosario and four men were SEN.
out on a scout, and they ran into a
! troop of Mexican regulars. Rosario
retreated toward the United States, and
did not stop till he reached a Santa Fe
work train in Kansas where he ex-
! changed his military equipment for
some good old work overalls and a
In the opinion of Rosario, the revolu-
I ton will fail because of the Indifference
of the people in whose interest the war
/ was started. In the skirmish Rosario
had with the regulars two of his com
! panionS were shot and two taken pris-
oners. Later the regulars attacked Cap
tain Bosario's soldiers, and captured
! most of them. The captain esca~% to

| Chihuahua say that a revolution would
not amount to much so long as Presi-
dent Diaz is ruler of Mexico's destiny.
After Diaz, the politicians will fall out
! and a successful revolution can be pull
/ ed off every month. Rosario says he
has heard a good many people predict
the annexation of Mexico by the Uni
/ ted States within ten years.

Families of Dead Firemen.

Chicago. Dec. 23.-Long before the

Chicago business men and the city
