Yaqui Indians Demand
Return of Their Land
Several Hundred Well Armed Abor.
igines Cause Fear in American
Colony in Mexico.

TUCSON. Ariz.. June s.-several hun
dred well armed Yaqui Indians have mobil-
lied in the Yaqui river delta country and
are demanding the restoration of their
lands, according to the statement of pas
sengers on the train which arrived here
from Mexico today.
The lands in question are the site OF an
American colony organized by Los An
geles capitalists in which eastern capital
has since become largely interested.
The Indians. It Is said. began to gather
in Cocorit, near Corral. Sunday night. and
Tuesday made a demand for the surren-
der OF the river towns of Esperanz, Bacum,
Jori, Torin, Lencho and Portam, giving
the Mexicans three days to surrender them
and the surrounding country into their
possession. 1t is feared that a failure to
comply with the demand will bring on
another Yaqui war and that many COM
psnies Of Yaquis in the regular army Will
desert the standard and join their country
men in that event.

June Means StrdlO Hats
June 1st is the officially correct date
beginning the straw hat season. It's
no crime, though, to have worn one a
week in advance (weather permit
ting,) There's an indefinable jaunty
neatness, a clean, cool look to a straw
hat, and this years crop is beyond
criticism, Prices of our new and exclu-
sive line range from
$2.oo 20 $500
Panamas, however, cost a little
more. The very popular straw this
summer is the Sennit braid. It's dur
able and practical; but it's best point is
that it doesn't soil as easily as the
finer braided straws. First corners
fare best.
