Various Views as to Cause
of Dr.. Hills RESIGNATION

DR.. David Jayne Hill. who has resigned
his post as ambassador to Germany, to
take effect July 1. will return to Berlin
about May 1. He will arrange his af-
fairs and prepare his household effects for
return to America.
The actual reasons for the retirement
Of DR.. Hill are a matter Of speculation.
DR.. Hill himself will add nothing to the
explanation given in his letter to the
President rendering his resignation, in
which he suggests that 1t was fitting time
to give up his post.
Following Immediately on the announce
ment OF the appointment of new ambas-
sadOrs to both Turkey and Russia, Of
fetal Washington scented an important
diplomatic shake-up as i'm prospect. Presi-
dent Tafts comment to callers was that
DR.. Hills period Of service had been en-
tirely satisfactory to both the State De-
partment and himself.
Surprise to Senate Committee.
Various views were held by officials
concerning DR.. Hills resignation. It came
as q surprise to members of the Senate
committee on foreign relations, although
some declared that they understood a
change in Berlin had been in contempla-
ton.
DR.. Hill in his letter pointed out that
half Of the Taft administration already
having passed. it was fitting for him to
tender his resignation.
In this connection 1t was recalled that
President Roosevelt at a corresponding
time in his first administration found the
need Of eminent places for his strong
supporters. laying down the doctrine that
no diplomatic official could reasonably ex-

pancy of the position of Assistant Secre-
tary of State, DIR. Hill has been in the
diplomatic service more than twelve
years.
Has No Plans Ahead.
DR.. Hill was en- route from New York
| to Washington when the announcement
of his resignation was made at the
White House, and on his arrival las,
night he was advised that rumors were
current that he had In view some other
high position in public life or in the

DR.. Hill pointed to the second part

public yesterday. which read that he

The battle of Auga Prieta and its ~
sultan, loss OF American lives and dam
age TO property has riveted the attention
Of the American government to the sat-
uation along the entire southern frontier.
The representations which the State De-
partment so far have made to the Mexican
government has been of a precautionary
and warning character. The question OF
indemnity for the loss of life and prop
erty at Douglas has not yet been raised.
That is a matter for the future II Is
pointed out. the pressing need OF this
time being to see that no American set
tlement Is exposed to danger from either
fedora! or rebel bullets.
Supplementing it's first representations
in regard to the border situation. the
State Department today requested the
Mexican government to extend protection

FARTnEsT SOUTHWEST

Away down in the farthest southwest corner of the United States lies a city beloved of the old Spanish Padres, and famed for it's matchless harbor, it's equally matchless climate, and it's beautious maidens. This city farthest away of all cities in the Union, will hold big Exposition in 1915, to celebrate the compile. ton of the Panama Canal, from which it expects to derive great material benefit. During t h e same year there will be another Exposition in San Francisco, and the double attraction will take millions of persons to the Coast.
 San Diego, with characteristic Western energy, has already broken ground for it's Exposi- ton buildings, a ceremony in which the President himself as sisted, and at which he was rep resented by Hon. John Barrett, the only international official in Washington.

THE FATE OF EMPIRES

assigned LOO years as the period of a race, after
which it must be succeeded by another.
The various activities Of man, according to
Professor Petrie. are related in the same order
in each successive period. This can be best
traced in the medieval and classical periods,
where the stages of sculpture, painting, litera-
ture, music, mechanics, science and wealth
spread over some seven centuries. These stages
were nearer together in earlier ages, but the or
der was always the same 80 far as can be traced.
The starting point of each civilization-as of
each generation-is a mixture of blood. With
out a fusion of race no fresh start can be made.
About six or eight centuries are needed for the
rise to the sculpture stage. The growth of civil
lization largely consists in a frightening out of
the subsequent stages Of activity, and diminu-
ton of the stagnant period before a new mix
ture is started. The period seems to belong to
the people and not to the country, and is kept
by the people when they go to a land of a diff
ferent phase.
Though. no doubt, climatic periods have a
preci pitating effect In throwing one people on to
another. yet the general regularity of interval
of the stages of growth of civilization point to
a racial determinant. This may be the time re-
CURED to promote the maximum mixture of diff
ferent strains in two races which are In con-
Globe.

MAN WHO REPLACES HIS HENS
When They Were Stolen He Went
to Bed and Brought AZ Chicks
Out Of So Eggs.

Lockwood, Ohio.-Jacob B. Seitz, a
resident of this place. has Matched out
AZ chicks. He did it all by him
self, spent all his time on the nest
and says hat being a human incu-
bator isn't SO hard a job as many per-
sons might think. He admits that
only for the care and attention of his
wife who brought him his food daily,
and kept him supplied with tobacco
he would have been unable to keep his
nest so we'll and the hatch might have
been lost.
For eighteen days Mr.. Seitz had
watched over his three hens with all
the care of a mother and kept telling
his neighbors hat he was going to
have at least IS chicks when the
hens came of their nests. But q
few days ago he went to his hen
house and found his poultry gone.
He grabbed up a basket, wrapped the
warm eggs into 1t and "a home. Then
he and his wife discussed what they
should do to save them.
The result was that Mr.. Seitx made
a bed in the callar, into which his
wife tucked him with a blanket. All
the eggs we're carefully placed about
him. In this bed nest he remained
for three days and brought out ~
chicks.

THE meaning of life has in all ages been the
goal of human thought and the great extension
of our knowledge of the past, by the researches
of recent years, enables US now to view the
course of human changes with more complete
ness than has been the case before. In place or
looking on the fall of the Roman empire as a
monstrous and inexpltcable fact, we now see that
civilization Is not only intermittent, but Is a reg
ularly recurrent phenomenon"
This was the theory propounded by Prof Film
ders Petrie in a lecture delivered at the Royal
institution on THE Revolutions of Civilization.
In Egypt, said the lecturer. we can trace eight
civilizations; the first prehistoric; the second
prehistoric, the early dynsstic, the pyramid oulio-
ers, the middle kingdom (Xllth dynasty, the EN-
pire (XVIIIth dynasty, the Greek and the Arao'
The rise and fall Of art in each OF these PERIODS
can be well illustrated. Similar periods are
found in Europe, the early, middle and late Gre
tan. the classical and the medieval These pc
RODS are contemporary with those OF Egypt so
far as we can ascertain. Hence the Mediterra'
mean civilization seems a distinct unit, rising
and falling together as one body, The Mesopo-
tamian civilization is in a different phase TO that
of the Mediterranean but Its period is about the
same.
A similar period Of about 1900 years has oc-

Very nearly as old as the Fourth of July itself
IN a holiday sense is the custom in the average
smaller city, town or village of making the aft
ernoon Of independence Day the occasion of a
race meet and athletic carnival. Perhaps this Is
held on the main street Of the town If there is
no track available, but If there is a fair ground
or regular race track in the vicinity that Is the
mecca for the crowds. Some years ago the prime
feature of every such meet was found in the
racing, hose-laying and ladder contests of the
various volunteer fire. companies from all the
towns in the vicinity of the one where the
tournament was held. Latterly as horse
drawn fire-fghting apparatus has come into more
general use and even the motor hose wagons
have been purchased by many of the smaller
