Waseca, March 23.-Henry Myers
superintendent of the Waseca tele-
phone system, keeps chickens. No,
there is nothing remarkable about
that, but each afternoon while stand
ing In the GENITAL telephone once,
which Is several blocks away from
his home where he feeds the chick
ems. Now, can you figure out how he
does It? He feds them by telephone.
Impossible! No, he actually does this
very thing, and this is how it Is done:
He has fixed up box in the chicken
house with drop in the bottom
of it. In this he places the corn
screenings. ETC., that he wants to
feed the chickens in the afternoon.
The catch that holds the door in place
is a sensitive affair and is connected
to the telephone system the same way
your telephone is connected. When
the hour Of 4 p. m. arrives, Mr.. Myers
sticks in plug and presses button
the same way the operators do when
they ring up your home or place OF
business, and the catch on the feed
box moves back, the door drops down,
the feed falls to the floor and the
chickens are fed.

huahua DR.. Caricristi urged the in
surrecto chief ITO achieve decisive
victory at all costs by May 1, for, he
wrote, President Taft will not wait
longer than that for quiet to be re-
stored. The courier departed from
here.
Investigated in Washington.
f DR.. Caricristi is one of the directing
minds of the revolutionary junta and
is probably their best trained diplo-
matist. The letter is a report on the
meaning Of the mobilization Of Ameri-
can troops at Fort Sam Houston.
Most of DR.. Caricristi's investigating
was dond at washington, although ne
is at present in this city. In an inter
view today he said:
"Of course, complete federal tri
umph in chihuahua, likewise would
avert Intervention. But do know alb
solutely that President Taft is deter
mined that order shall be restored and
quickly, by one side or the other in
Mexico, with the alternative Of inter
vention.
''In my report to Senior Madero, !
pointed out the necessity of capturing
and holding the state of Chihuahua.
II this can be accomplished ! am con-
WINGED that the revolutionists will be
recognized rs beliggerents by the Uni
ted States and other governments.
Neither Side Wants intervention.
II have reason to believe that May
/ is the date set for the termination
of President Taft's patience. Neither
side wants Intervention and ] believe
firmly that federals and revolutionists
world make common cause against an
invader.
"The financial interests of the Uni
ted States in Mexico is immense and
with that of Europe is greater In q
money sense than that Of Mexico It
self. Recently, compiled statistics
which show that there is billion dol
lars OF American money in that coun-
try and that the interest Of Europe Is
about half that sum.
ut is a fact that seventy-fve per
cent Of the credits in Mexico is In the
hands of Americans and Europeans.
Influence OF Great Interests.
"Just how much influence has been
exerted in Mexico by certain great In
terests l cannot say. But 1t gives
food for thought to know that one OF
the big interests which has millions
invested has always been on the best
Of terms with President Diaz. Another
interest with more money and an
eye on certain great natural re-
source of the country has been antag-
onized at court and the interests OF the
latter in change OF administration
seems obvious"

THINK SON HAS
PART OF ESTATE Il
AN EXAMINATION is BEING CON
QUOTED IN THE THOMPSON
PROBATE CASE.

District court resumed short ses-
sion this morning to hear an examine
ton in connection with the estate OF
Edward G. Thompson in which the adj
ministrator, w. N. Enyart seeks to
learn the whereabouts OF certain
matter as gone through today tends
to show that the administrator be-
'lieyes A. P. Thompson knows where
the property in question has been dis
posed Of and the hearing is one Of, ex-
animation Of A. p. Thompson, son
OF the decedent, to ascertain it he has
possession OF the property of the
estate that is in question. The exam
fnation has been one that resembles
the Hefiin-De France case recently
conducted and ruled upon by the court
the last day Of the January term. The
case will no doubt conclude this after
noon.
