that the animal is no longer afraid
of automobiles. The animals fear of
motor cars had resulted in four brok-
en- wagons and nearly scared the fe-
male members of the household to
death.
Lyons was out driving recently
when he saw an automobile coming
along u narrow place in the road. He
had been eating an apple and as he
jumped out of the wagon he went to
the horses head and gave the animal
the apple.
AS the machine whizzed by the
horse hardly noticed It, Lyons then
got his idea, went home and perfect
ed an arrangement in the shape of a
basket attachment to the saddle large
enough to hold several apples. BY
pulling a string from the wagon the
basket is lowered IN front of the
horses head so that when an auto
mobile approaches the basket drops,
the horse begins eating the apple and
fails to notice the machine.

Peter Andreas Peterson, IS years
old, and Miss Josephine Spelter, 16
years old, were the participants in the
little comedy drama which began
with moonlight elopement via the
ladder route and which came to an
abrupt conclusion in unromantic po-
lice station cells.
Peterson last night sobbingly told
of the elopement When his emo

little country girl tearfully took VI

the narrative. According to their
story, Dan Cupid appeared on the
scene the first day Peter caught a
glimpse of Josephine. Peter hgi just
arrived from Denmark and hSd OBJ
tanned work with Christian Spletter,
a wealthy farmer at Manawa, Wis. As
soon as he discovered that his affec-
ton was reciprocated an elopement
was planned.
At o'clock Monday night Peter
raised a ladder to the window of Jo-
sephine's room. He carried her to
the ground and they drove to New
London where they boarded a train
for Chicago. They spent the day see
ing the city sights ana at night start
ed to take the train for st. Louis,
where, they said, they intended to
set married.
Meanwhile Papa Spletter had dis
covered the open window and ladder
and got busy with the telegraph. The
result was that when Josephine, at

the help of an extra man, proceeded
to lay a cement sidewalk Many of
his parishioners came to laugh but
remained to admire, for the preacher
proved that he was as good a mason
as preacher and laid one OF the fin

government in London, directing that functionary to close at once a contract with the Hotchkiss Arms company for a number of rapid fire guns for use of the Mexican army. The Hotchkiss rapid fire gun is be- Geyed to be the one best adapted for use in the mountainous country of Mexico, on account of it's light ness and ease of transportation. It is believed that the arms will be shipped from England within the next few days, and the urgency of the order is significant of the fact that the government evidently in- tends to push the campaign against the rebels in all parts of Mexico.
 Mexican Herald: The season of novilladas bullfghts will open Sunday afternoon at El Toreo ring when Machaquito de Sevilla, Caye, tano Gomez and Carbonero de Madrid will be the matadores. Six toros de Santin will be used. The last time that Santin bulls ap- peared in this plaza the corrida had to be suspended, as none of the bulls could be induced to fight. The manager of the ganaderia has selected these bulls for Sunday with special care as he is desirous of showing the public that the San tin are bred from fighting strain. Following this corrida they will continued in regular succession all summer until the opening to the formal temporada in the fall. In addition to the matadores who ap- pear Sunday number of others have been contracted with for the future, including such we'll known nOvilleros as Harper B. Lee, Mer- Ced Gomez, Samuel Soils and Alfonso Zambrano.
 Mexican Herald: The governor of the state of Guanaiuato has an nOunced to the legislature of his state his platform of "No- Re-elec- tiOn." He declared: "The gov. ernor of Guanaiuato cannot ever under any circumstance be re. elected" He proposes to give out soon his ideas of election reforms which should be considered in the state, much as they have been brought out in other parts and in the general press. Notwithstand. ing the proposition of the present governor the people are going to request him to resign from his position as that they may hold an election. If the governor resigns there will be a governor pro tenn appointed who can in no case be a candidate for the position, and he will remain in office until a governor is elected by the people There IS great enthusiasm in Qua naluato as that state wishes to be the first to make suffrage effective and to stand for mo re election"
 Mexican Herald: The Mexican Red Cross society is preparing tc actively enter into its appointed service in behalf of the wounded soldiers who may need their helF h any part of the republic. Many women from the highest social cir cles as we'll as working girls have Offered their services to the society as have physicians and nurses. Il

nurses some time next week. They will go in special car by way of Laredo, Texas. Doctor Fernando Lopez is receiving many volun- teers of service, as is also Doctor Eduardo Liceaga each at his res- pective residence. The society ex- poets to open an office within a day or two for the purpose of en- rolling those who wish to enlist. It Is expected that the society will open lecture course soon for the purpose of preparing those who enlist for emergency work on the field.
 Mexican Herald: Scattered to the four winds as they appeared to be, information is wanted at the office of the United States con sulate-general in this city of sev- eral persons, all men, and all Americans, who, their relatives and friends allege, failed to leave for warding addresses when they struck out into the cold, hard world for themselves. One of these gentle men is c. E. Glass, who is from Missouri, and concerning whose wherea friends back in the "show-me" state would like to be shown. When last heard from Mir. Glass was headed for Mexico, but into just what part he pursued his way on one seems to know. Inform ation of value to him is held at the consulate. Mrs. Henrietta Pitt man would like to accumulate a little information with regard to her husband and lis present loca- tion. His name she gives as J. D. Pittman, but says that letters do not seem to reach him quite as promptly as might be expected, and asks the aid of the consulate in her effort to get his correct ad- dress. T. Elliot Smith, who af- firms that he lives in 3a. Calle del Valle, No. 50, Valle de Santiago, Guanajuato, would like to get a little first hand information regard ing the present abiding place of Walter T. Smith, apparently re. lative. The missing Smith was last heard from at Pachuca, some- thing like eight months ago, but has dropped from sight in the in- 6nitesimal interregnum of time which has since passed.
