PLOT TO KILL MADERO BOILED BY BODY GUARD Lights Suddenly Extinguished in Banquet Hall, Leaving
 Party in Darkness But Col. Hay Seizes Insurgent Chieftain and His Wife and Hurries Them to
 Special Train
(Specal from United Press.)

Aguas Calientes, Mex, June 6-That an attempt on the life of Francisco I. Madero, Jr., was frustrated here last night is the belief today of members of the party accompanying the insur gent chieftain to Mexico City. A banquet in Madero's honor had been planned at the Casino Hotel. When Madero arrived he was escort ed to the banquet hall by small committee of citizens. As soon as he stepped into the room the lights were extinguished suddenly, leaving the party in darkness. A moment later another committee hurried into the darkened room with Mrs. Madero, and then the rapidly growing crowd sur rounded the pair.
 Suspecting a plot, Colonel Eduardo Hay seized Madero and his wife and hurried them into side street, order ing horsemen to follow them. Hay put the couple into the nearest auto mobile and rushed them through side streets to the Madero special train. Madero and his wife walked between cars, over the tracks and through mud to reach their private car where the usual bodyguard was tripled. The couple abandoned the idea of attend ing the banquet and dined privately in their car.
 Meanwhile, thousands surged through the streets of the city seeking the in surgent chief and shouting Viva Ma dero", but were disappointed as the leaders special train left here two hours later without Madero again ven- turing into the streets. During those two hours General Garibaldi and private detective watched Madero's car.
 It is believed the actions of the committee at the Casino Hotel indi- cated another Cientifico conspiracy.
 Despite last nights affair, Madero is confident that Mexico has a warm wei come for him. When he enters the capital tomorrow morning at 10 o'clock his party will include his mother, his wife, the wives of two of his brothers and three of his titled nieces and nephews.
 The welcome that has greeted Ma dero at all stages of his journey south ward has been so hearty as to defy description. Everywhere the populace is showing great joy over the ending of the revolution and the overthrow ing of Diaz. So great, indeed, is Ma dero's popularity that IS of 27 Diaz governors in the republic have been supplanted by Maderists since Fri day
 Madero was informed today that the Mexican government would nay all the expenses of his special train.

The "BulI."

The origin of the word "bull' as the definition of a confused utterance is doubtful. Some philologists say it comes from the French boule-"fraud" and others that it is derived from the Icelandic bull-"nonsense." Many definitions have been attempted. but the best probably is that of Sydney Smith. Writing of the difference be- tween wit and "bulls," he says: ''Wit discovers real relations that are appar- ent; bulls admit apparent relations that are not real. The stronger the apparent connection and the more con- plete the real disconnection of the ideas the greater the surprise and the better the 'bull.'"
