BEET SUGAR PROSPERITY.

The beet sugar combine makes very

of its receipts of well over million
dollars, and decided decrease in its

COMPLEXION LOTION
MAKES ROSY CHEEKS


In writing for the Philadelphia Press,
Mae Martyr, the famous writer on
health and beauty topics, says: "Any
woman who desires rosy cheeks does
the worst thing imaginable by trying
TO color them with powder or rouge,
Everyone notices that painted look and
it is only n question of time when her
face will be rough. sallow looking and
beset with large, dirt collecting pores.
"An inexpensive lotion made by dis
solving four ounces spurmax in one
half pint hot water with two teaspoon
fuls glycerine added, is far better than
powder or any other complexion beauti-
fier This lotion does not show like
powder and gives the skin a clear,
clean. wholesome look that lasts much
longer than when powder is used. 1t
removes the shiny. oily, sallow look
and leaves the skin smooth, rosy and
fresh looking"

POLITICS OPENING UP.

The preliminary moves for the en-.
suing elections are being made in diff.
ferent quarters. The American party
committee S resolution providing for A
preliminary convention so that the
party may decide upon candidates to
submit at the primaries, has attracted
the attention that was expected. The
Smoot organ reprehends the action Of
the American committee. 1t says it
is all wrong, violation Of the spirit
and almost of She letter OF the com
mission law. But alas, since the
American party has done this dreadful
work, the other parties will have to
follow suit and do the same, which is
a swift sliding by that organ into the
pool of political iniquity that is both
characteristic and comical.
From the same source we have oc-
casional jubilant announcements that
the American party is disntegrating,
that the honest rank and file arc tired
Of the dishonest scoundrels that are
leading them, and that the party will
never amount to anything more at the
elections. All at once, however, that
organ seems to wake up from this
happy dream and see a dreadful
specter of Americanism confronting it.
terrorizing its soul, and paralyziug its
efforts. But, if the American party is
dislntegrating, if If is never to amount
TO ANYTHING more in the elections why
be afraid of it? Why bother about
anything that it does, or that it fails
to do1 And if the American party
is violating the law by undertaking TO-,
concentrate its votes on candidates
so as TO give it political
position, why not bring an
injunction in the courts to
stop that form of lawbreaking, if. in
deed, there is any serious thought that
it is lawbreaking?
The Smoot organs idea that the
American party is breaking the law,
and that the other parties must break
the law also because the American
party had done it; its idea that the
American party is disintegrating, and
is no more to be power, coupled with
its panicky forecasts of what the
American party is to do-all this
makes an entertaining mess to the
discriminating reader that does not
speak we'll for either the intelligence
or the honesty of the Smoot organ

SPECIAL NEE TING
CALLED TO DISCUSS
PLAYGROUND PLAN
Captain Oyster to Have
Chamber Directors De-
eide the Problem.

In order to reconsider the action TAX
en- by the Chamber of Commerce at
its meeting Wednesday night in
adopting a resolution protesting against
the bill introduced Tuesday by Senator
]. H. Gallinger for the purchase of
the Mt. Pleasant playground, upon the
ground, as stated by c. c. Lancaster.
that the bill violates the half-and-half
principle of appropriations, and intends
the entire purchase price to come out
Of District revenues, Capt. James F.
Oyster, president of the Chamber, to-
day ordered a special meeting of the
board of directors to be held next Mon
day afternoon at 4:3O o'clock.
Captain Oyster said today that he had
conferred with several members, and
that he had found a difference Of opifr.
ion as to the meaning of the language
of the bill He determined, therefore,
he said. to put the question up to the
directors, and allow them to arrive at
a decision.
The language Of that part OF the bill.

8. 200. which provides for the pur-
chase Of the tract at the northwest cor
ner of Fourteenth street and Columbia
road, is as follows:
And the sum OF $4,000 is hereby
appropriated. payable one-half out of
the revenues of the District of Column
bia and one-half out of any money in
the Treasury not otherwise appropriate
ed. Provided, That one-half of said
sum Of $4,000. or so much thereof as
may be expended, shall be reimbursed
to the Treasury of the United States
out Of the revenues of the District of
Columbia in four equal annual INSTALL
ments, with interest at per cent per
annum upon the deferred payments
The bill which Senator Gallinger in
troduced was drawn by Fred G. Cold
rem, a director of the Washington Play
ground Association. Mr.. Coldren said
today that there is no question about
the meaning of the language of the bill,
inasmuch as 1t follows exactly the Ian
guage of the law by which Montrose
Park, in Georgetown, was recently pur-
chased. He also said, that the bill was
approved in form by Corporation Coun-
sci Thomas before it went to Senator
Gallinger.
'IThere Is absolutely no ground for
the assumption that the bill contem-
plates the payment for the park and
playground upon any other basis than
the regular half-and-half principle of
the organic act" said Mr.. Coldren. Its
language follows exactly that of the
bill for ehpurchase of the Georgetown
park, and certainly there Is no ques-
ton about that"
Upon the statement of Mr.. Lancas-
ter before the Chamber that the bill
was an attmpet to violate the partner
ship agreement between the United
States and the District, without a read
ing of the bill itself, the Chamber
adopted the resolution which we offered
as a substitute for the Callahan resolu-
ton approving the Gallinger bill.
Nothing has 50 stirred the Chamber
since the recent merger negotiations as
the question over the playground bill,
and the board Of directors will meet 1--WE
days after the meeting last Wednesday
night in an effort to thresh out the
question to a finality.

EARTHQUAKE; PANIC
IN MEXICO CITY AS
!. TREMORS CONTINUE
Four Heavy Shocks Rock
Buildings, Terrifying
All Citizens.
DANGER OF ATTACK
INCREASES ALARM
Bandit Jose Vera, With Four Thou,
sand Men, Threatens to
Storm Capital.

MEXICO CITY, June 15-Earthquake
panic again reigned in this city today as
q result of heavy shocks last night
which rocked buildings and shook down
walls and chimneys. The police report
ed that, so far as they had learned, no
one was killed.
Mexico City did not sleep during the
night, anXiously awaiting news from
the stricken districts and preparing 10
send out rescuing parties.
Four distinct shocks, beginning at
nine minutes of II O'Clock, were felt
here. Residents of the American colony
fed from their homes in terror. Many
deserted the city entirely, arranging TO
spend the rest of the night in the safety
! of the fields. Three tremors, each last
ing forty seconds, followed the first.
Z The city eagerly awaited the opening
4 of the Tacubaya Observatory this morn
/ ing to look at the records of the seiSmo-
/ of the disturbances. Officials OF the OBJ
( servatory predicted that heavier shocks
would follow.
Another Menace.
Another danger threatens the city and
adds to the terror of the panic-stricken
populace. Jose Vera, bandit, with his
400 expert guerrillas, recruited from
the best and most reckless of Madero's
army, rests in the suburb of Tlanepan-
tia, eight miles away from the city.
Field guns and machine guns stand
sullenly at the street corners, with their
sleepy tenders by them, after an all
night vigil. From the cathedral towers
ritlemen look from between the 6errated
stones Rare citizens walked warily
about the streets
For word had not come from General
Miranda. commanding a rebel army at
Cuernavaca, from whom aid was ex-
q pected. And no word had come from
Madero to whom the government had
sent messages.
Ready to Attack.
When or whether Vera will make his
threatened attack since he has made
his second demand for a change in the
office of chief of this military zone can
not be foretold here. He seemingly is in
readiness to attack.
Statements made by United States
that the United States Government will
make no formal demand upon Mexico
for compensatory damages to Americans
for loss of life and property during the
revolution.
If the Mexican government itself will
endeavor with speed and such nberality
as Justice permits to settle outstanding
claims, I do not think any diplomatic
demand for damages will be necessary"
he said today. He advises all persons
concerned to proceed with moderation,
patience and consideration in dealing
with the Mexican government.

PASSENGERS FIGHT
AS RIVER STEAMER
BURNS ON THE OHIO
Engineer Beaches Boat in
Time to Save Fifty Strug-
Cling Excursionists.

sMITHLAND, KY, June B.-The
steamer John L. Lowry, with fifty pas
sengers aboard, burned to the waters
edge near Hamlettsburg, Ill, early to-
day. There was no loss Of life, but
there was a wild panic as ,he passen-
gers fought their way TO the rails and
waited, with death Imminent, as the
boat slowly made its way to the shore
and safety.
Quick work on the part Of the cap
tain and the bravery of q. Jim Blud-
soe' engineer averted a fearful river
tragedy. The fire had started near the
engine, and that section of the boat
was a furnace when the engineer ran
the steamers bow into the bank and
held 1t there until all Of the sixty-five
passengers and crew had escaped.
The boat, with fifty passengers
aboard, had been on an all-night ex-
cursion, and was making Its way up
the Ohio in midstream, when the blaze
was discovered. Most OF the passen-
gers were asleep at the time. Sud-
denly aroused by the dread cry Of fire,
they rushed to the decks IL a panic.
and only the GOODNESS of the crew kept
many from leaping overheard.
