 "Colombo." as is his custom had dozed of in chair, in a local funny water emporium. The saloon was practically empty at that time, with the exception of a few hanger-ons who could easily appreciate the joke which the white aproned bartender had in contemplation.
 When Colombo" was fast in the depth of slumber the liquor dispenser sneaked out from behind the bar, with handful of pastey starch and pro- ceeded toward the slumbering choco- late drop. Bing. It was all over in a minute. That is, the white starch was all over the ebony faced colombo : who slept on despite the fact that he had been white washed.
 However, he woke up few minutes later and proceeded over toward the

APPROVES AGREEMENT
Reciprocity Treaty VIII Now 90 to
the Senate In Almost Identical
Form Il Came to the House.

Washington.-President Taft's reci-
ported by all but a handful of Demo
Gratis and opposed by a majority of
the Republicans. passed the House of
Representatives Friday afternoon by
a vote of 264 to S8.
With nearly 200 Democrats in con-
troll and their action endorsed by
many Republicans, the bill was
adopted with no amendments and in
almost identically the form in which
1t passed the house last session.
The bill seeks to put into effect the
formal agreement reached between
Canadian cabinet for a reduction of
tariff rates on many articles and
free trade in many others across the
border of Canada. Added to it by the
Democratic leaders Is a section which
authorizes and requests" President
Taft to make further efforts to secure
still freer trade relations with Can
ada in the form of additional recipro-
cal relations.
The passage of the bill marked the
close Of a fight that had ragged in the
house for six days. In that time the
safety of the measure was at no time
threatened, but the Democratic and
Republican leaders, working for it's
passage, conceded all the opportunity,
desired by its opponents for debate
and protest.

O|Az BOWS TO
WILL OF PEOPLE
TRUCE SIGNED BY MADERO AND
NAVARRO AND PEACE IN
MEXICO SEEMS ASSURED.
Tho Liberal Concessions Of the PresI'
dent on Every Point Affecting Daily
Life Of People Exceeds the
Dreams Of Revolutionists.

Ell Paso, Texas.--An arm1stice OF
five days, beginning at noon Sunday
and affecting the district between
Juarez and Chihuahua, and west OF
the latter, was made effective In an
exchange of identical letters signed
by General Francisco I. Madero, Jr.,
for the rebels, and General Juan Ma
varro for the government.
The truce provides there shall be
no movement of troops Of either side
during the next five days, and that
provisions and medicines may be
brought to either camp from the
United States without payment Of
duty.
The concessions which the govern
ment is willing to make have been
known to General Madero for two
weeks, ever since Frederic Moye, a
business man of Chihuahua, visited
General Madero at Rancho Bustillos.
They were discussed in the meeting
by the leaders and members of the
peace mission. Those present were:
Francisco Madero, ST., father of the
rebel leader; the latter's brothers, AL
fonso, Gustave and Raoul Madero;
Pascual Orozco, the original field
leader of the revolution; Pancho Viii
la, former bandit, and present
staunch supporter of Madero; Giu-
seppe Garibaldi, and General and Sc
nora Madero.
Much of the discussion was of a ma
ture the publication of which. is not
desired at this time. 1t may be said,
however, that General Madero has
the most authentic assurances of a
liberal attitude on the part of the
government. In fact, it may be said
President Diaz is anxious to adopt
every measure that will insure Che re-
turn of the revolutionary soldiers to
their farms and shops with the feel
ing that the government in Mexico
City is their government, and that
every aid the government can give
them to repair the ravages of neglect
is theirs for the asking.
The government wants no rancor to
remain on either side. The liberality
of the president on every point imme-
diately affecting the daily life of the
people, as shown in the
given General Madero, exceeds the
dreams of the r%evolutionists them
selves.
1t is noted that Ojinaga, where a
small federal force is ~besieged, is not
covered in the armistice, the insur-
recto activity in that district being
largely independent. 1t is expected
that in the event of the settlement of
the rebellion in Chihuahua, the sit
uation at Ojinaga and other scattered
places throughout the republic will
receive attention.
The moral effect of the cessation of
hostilities in chihuahua is regarded as
certain to make settlements in other
parts of the country simple.

Men From This Side.

eight Americans who, with 10000
rounds of ammunition, had crossed
the border west of Eel Paso and reach
ed General Madero's camp after nine
days. When they reached the camp
they were all disarmed because of

than the natives. and those in author

Americans to keep out of the strife
and remain on their own side of the
border,
