DR.. Gomez, Insurgent Representative, Far
from Silent, However.

New York, March l5.-OfIicial repre-
sentatives of the Mexican government
in this city were not inclined yesterday
to discuss the Mexican situation in any
of its aspects. largely for the reason
that the situation for the moment was
apparently quiescent.
Ambassador DE La Barra, while pre-
pairing to leave the city for Washington
at noon or shortly after, said that he
had no new advices, either from Wash
ington or from Mexico, and had no state
ment of any sort to make.
1t was believed that his series Of con-
ferences with Senior Limantour, the Mex
lean minister of finance, was concluded
for the present, for the ambassador said
that he had no expectation of returning
to New York City in the near future.

Red Letter Davs.

The origin of red letter day" has
been traced back to the third century.
Gregory bishop of Caesarea, jealous
for the conversion of pagans, found
them unwilling to give up their GUS
tomary recreations at the festivals of
their gods, so. taking a leaf out of
their book, he instituted festivals in
honor of saints and martyrs. This ex-
ample soon led to the institution OF
holy days, now corrupted into holi-
days. In old almanacs all such holy
days were set forth in red ink, the
rest being In black; hence the term
'red letter day" for any notable occa-
sion. Others say that the origin of the
expression is much more recent and is
due to the fact that Saints day, the
9th of November, the kings birthday
and accession and King Charles day
were similarly marked off in red as
holidays for the Bank Of England, evil

Jackson, Miss, April 14.-The ac-

here during the convention of the

LIGHTING BY GAS.
Il Was q Costly Process When II Was
First Established.

The first incorporated gas company
was the National Light and Heat Com
pany of England, established in 1909.
In America the first gas company was
Incorporated in Baltimore in 1916, the
second one in Boston in 1922, and the
next one was the New York Gaslight
company. incorporated in 1923.
Prior to 1880 the gas business of this
country was nominal, but the price
probably was responsible for its slow
development. From 1924 to 1928, says
Moody's Magazine, the New York Gas
light company sold gas to consumers
at the rate of $40 thousand cubic
feet.
The first artificial illuminating gas
was produced in England about 1925
by one DR.. Hales, but not until 1876
was practical test made. In that
year the Earl of Dundonald of Scot
land arranged an apparatus by which
he lighted his castle with gas. The
same year William Murdoch of Bir-
mingham, England, introduced gas as
light in his workshops at Redruth
and Cornwall.
AS Mr. Murdoch was the first man
to reap any commercial benefit from
the discovery of the use Of illuminat-
ing gas, he may properly be accredited
as the father of modern public utili-
ties. In 1918 London bridge was illu-
minated by gas. and five years later
GAS was I'm general use throughout the
main part of London.
