the incident took place. He was there

the tale, has q reputation as a prac-

TO The New York Sun, who last year
at Miamis sent two Englishmen out to
catch tarpon by sprinkIing snuff on
the water and then wait for them to
come up to sneeze This time the
imperial potentate was his victim,
and the doctor says that anyone who
IS q Shriner and knows what "hoid on
to the rope" means, can better apprec-
late the situation OF the revered head
OF a big lodge holding on with might
and main to a line connected with a
100 pound swordfsh. DR.. Lawtoa took
a picture of the s~wordfsh. which looks
all that he claims for it.
The imperial potentate went down
TO Cuba and DIR. Lawton, who is a
Shriner, got him to stop off at Miami
after his return, for a week on the
fish.
1T happened this way says DR..

Ketchel had given me a nod and I

go his harpoon, and before the poten-
tate knew what was doing we were
fast to a 1000 pound swordfish. Well.
Ketchel took a half turn with that
rope and then he handed it to Mr..
Treat, and by that time we were skim
ming along in the fishing boat to beat
the band.

Treat to me al the big Ash dragged
us along.
Hold on to the ropeI" I yelled, and
every time he would ask for instruc-
tons I would ven that back at him.
He saw the point eventually. Well;
we were dragged four or FIVE miles,
right into the bay. Then I took up

Birmingham enjoyed 1t, too. The ho-

the girl appeared she was greeted by
a universal ~craning of necks. Her
every movement was followed.
At the end of the second day Of the

announcement Of the sheriff that
there was no evidence against the

AS ociated Press.
Milwaukee, Wis. Aug. 27.-Fify-
four lawyers, with at least one from
each state, completed today for pre-
sentation to the American Bar As
sociation a report denouneing as
dangerous to the country all move
ments for the recall of judges or
judicial decisions The report cites
that in Ohio the constitutional con-
vention declined to apply the recall
10 judges but provided that laws
should be passed for the prompt re-
moval, on complaint and hearing, of
judges for any misconduct involving
moral turpitude.
This the report says is the sub
stantial system used in New York,
Massachusetts and several other
states.
1--WE maintain" the report says,
that the recall applied to judges
will tend to deprive the public of
JUDGES of ability, character, high
sense of duty and due regard to en-
lightened public sentiment, and that
such a judiciary is absolutely nee
essary to the existence Of a constitu-
tional democracy.
The application of the recall to an
ordinary official may be a question
of expediency, but it is not funda-
mentally wrong. To apply it 10 the
judiciary is in violation of the prin-
ciples Of government which ages Of
experience have demonstrated to be
wise"
Judges, it is pointed out, may be
removed by impeachment, and if
this is not sufficient an adequate
remedy can be created for the re-
moval of judges after complaint Is
made and hearing held.
Ten minutes were devoted by the
association today to the settlement
Of the question Of whether negro
lawyers shall be admitted to mem
bership. A resolution was presented
by former Secretary of War Dickn-
son and was adopted providing that
hereafter when a negro is nominated
for membership in the bar associa-
tion his race must be indicated to

Washington, ID. c., Aug. 27.-
Whether American Mormons who
fled from Mexico during the acute
stages of the rebellion shall be per-
mited to bear arms on their return
to their homes in Mexico is a ques-
tion raised by General E. u. Steeyer,
of the Forth U. S. cavalry, in one
of his reports today
The war department officials are
inclined to think this is a question
which the Mexican government
should settle, and the American
border patrol should allow the re-
turning refugees to take arms with
them for their own protection if
they have no purpose to violate the
neutrality laws by taking part in
the rebellion on the other side Of the
boundary.

OROzCO'S ESCAPE
WORRIES CABINET
Governor Of Sonora Authorized to
Use All Means in His Power to
Suppress Rebellion.
Associated Press.

ASSOclated PTeSS.
Mexico City, Mex, Aug. 27.-No
attempts were made in today's cabi-
net meeting to disguise the govern
ments disappointment because OF
the fact that the revolutionary forces
had succeeded in making their way
through the federal lines in north
ern Mexico, and invading the coast
states.
Jose Maria Maytorena, governor
of the state of Sonora, became the
man Of the hour when the central
government authorized him to use
all the means at his disposal for
handling the revolutionary situation
in his state
When Pascual Orozco, jr.. and his
band of rebels left Juarez. it was
stated that every avenue of escape
to the west was closed, and his ar
rest was expected within a few days.
That the government Is worried
because Orozco has excaped to the
west is evident.
Reports from the south indicate
a halt in the Zapatista operations.
Talk of a friction among the COM
manding officers in the south Is COM
mon, although il is denied In official
circles.
