SPAIN PROTESTS
Mexico Addressed as Result of
Killing of Six Subjects

ARE SHOT DOWN IN PUEBLA
Result of Attack on Ranch Three
Nations Now Involved with
Diaz's Government.

City OF Mexico. April 27.-Spain,
through its minister to Mexico, Ber-
nardo de Cologan Cologan. has made
formal protest to the foreign office
against the assassination of six sub
iects OF King Alfonso in the state of
Puebla last Monday.
With this registering of Spain's pro-
test Mexico now finds itself in diplo-
matte controversies with three nations
as the result of incidents growing out
of the revolution. II is not believed.
however, that the difficulties with the
last two-Spain and Great Britain
will involve anything more serious
than the formal exchange of notes.
SHOOT DEFENSELESs MEN.
The incident that has resulted in the
Spanish representations occurred on
the Atencingo hacienda in the state of
Puebla the property of Angel Diaz Ru-
bin, Spaniard. A small band of reb-
els swooped down upon the office of
the hacienda. where nine Of the en-
ployes, all Spaniards, were gathered,
and demanded 5000 pesos. They were
told they could have no money. In re-
ply the rebels declared they wanted
more than money; that they wanted
the lives of the ranchers, and then be-
gan an onslaught with machetes The
Spaniards fed, but the rebels shot and
six of the nine men fell fatally
wounded.
Yesterday afternoon Minister De La
Barra gave assurances that his coun-
try would do all in its power to punish
the guilty persons and expressed his
deep regret that such an incident
should have occurred.

Seventh Annual Game Supper a Gull
nary Triumph.

The busy work of weeks eliminated
last week Thursday evening IN the sew,
enth and best annual game supper ana
dance in the annals of Evening Star
grange. Year by year these annual sup
pers have been little better and grown
more popular. The large crowd spoke
well of the eloquent persuasion of the
attractive menu that was so largely adj
yertised that it is unnecessary to give
it again here. Three hundred respond,
ed to the call by purchasing tickets for
the supper that was eft for a king,
or anyone else. The dining room was
decorated with crepe paper of corn-ear
design hung in festoons and caught by
sheaves of wheat held in place by
sickles, making pleasing effect. The
arrangement of the supper tables was
tasteful and pretty Mrs. U. G. Davis
was the head of this department, aided
by able assistants. The excellent sup
per was appreciated by the throngs as
was the well known Log Cabin Farm
sweet cider, just from the press, that
gave zest to the venison, coon and
chicken-pies. Mrs. w. +. Walker was,
as usual, the presiding genius of the
kitchen with many helpers who were
on the alert to do the right thing at the
right time. At clock the concert by
Leitsinger orchestra of Brattleboro
called to the auditorium the lovers of
music, who pronounced the program ex-
ceptionally fine, particularly the solo,
Three Stars, by Sewal Morse. The color
scheme of the hall was red and white.
From the sides of the hall red and white
streamers were brought and caught
overhead at the center of the ceiling,
Across the gallery was draped red ana
white caught at intervals with rosettes,
alternate red and white. Across the
stage an arch was formed by lattice
work on either side and the legend,
Evening Star worked in evergreen; the
star appeared in green and gold. The
