Lord Guilford tells story of q
young lady's resources at a bazaar.
Business was in full swing when a
young man strolled around the various
stalls, with no intention Of purchas-
ing anything. AS he passed a large,
beautifully decorated stall the young
lady seller detained him. won't you
buy cigarette holder, sir?" she
asked. No, thank you, / don't
smoke" was the curt reply. "Or a
pen wiper worked with my own
hands?' Il don't write" "Ghen do

patience was exhausted. "Sir," she
said grimly, will you buy this box
of soap?"
The young man paid up.

The Better PART.

A certain woman went down from
Jerusalem to Jericho, and it CHANGED
that her gown was not fully buttoned
up in the back. Now, a priest and a
'Leyite, meeting the woman and per
ceiving her plight, passed by on the
other side, without saying word. But
a certain Samaritan, journeying that
way, was touched with compassion.
MADAM quoth he, your ha-
hum

claimed and gave him a look which
froze him on the spot.

ANOTHER REVOLT
STARTS IN HONDURAS
Jose Maria Villa Oaies Crosses the

lures the Town of Aramecina.
BY AsseeIated Press,

Tegucigalpa, Honduras, March l.
Jose Maria Villa Daies, a Hondurean
revolutionary from Amalpa, yesterday
crossed the San Salvador frontier
into Honduras with sixty men and
captured the border town OF Aramc-
Gina.
There were only five Hondurean SOL
diers stationed in Aramecina when the
revolutiOnaries appeared.
The Honduras government is rush
ing troops to meet NiIladares and ex-
poets to suppress the outbreak in Il
few days. 1t is probable that villa
dares will he captured as he has only
a small following and IS virtually a
political outlaw in both San Salvador
and Honduras.
A number of prominent men in this
city have been arrested. They had Ia
their possession what are alleged Ia
be compromising documents connect
ing them with Villadares's conspira Cy.
Villadares was formerly comman-
dant Of the port of AmapaIa and was
recently imprisoned in Tegucigalpa in

Through the law firm Of Bluuut *
Blount q Carter. the Blount ConstrEc-
ton COMPANY, general contra Ctors on
the new county jail building yester-
day afternoon fled suit against the
county OF Escambia naming the
amount Of damages as 100000, thus
taking the first definite steps toward
bringing a long drawn out contro-
Vcrsy to an issue in the courts.
This action on the part OF the attor-
neys for the Jail contractor was not In
the least uneXpeCed. as the attorneys
had notified the board Of county com
missioners at the meeting several days
ago, when the report Of the experts
employed by the hoard to check up
the jail matter was submitted, that
the company would stand upon it's
irst demands ard would bring suit for
the amount claimed from the county.
In fact, It has been apparent for
months that the only way in which a
final settlement Of the matter would
ever be reached would he through the
courts, and the public generally hg8
been expecting that suit would be
brought by the construction company.
The county commissioners and tho
county attorney claim that the report
adopted by the board al the last meet
ing thoroughly covers every detail NJ

London, March with the excep-
ton Of a few small collieries in tso-
lated districts, all the coal mines of
the country are idle this morning. At
sCne OF those places where work is
still going on, notably in Warwick
Shire, where ten thousand men are en-
ElCYed, the miners will join the
strikers tomorrow.
The only mine in the country where
the men have decided to remain at
work and not to Join the strikers is
a little one in northern Wales. Here
the mining is carried on under police
protection.
An official return issued today esti-
have quit as I,04e, ,407.
In most of the colliery districts the
men are taking advantage of the strike
to entoya holiday and no trouble is
enticipated. The greatest danger spot
is in south Wales, where the most
determined spirit prevails and where
the union funds are only sufficient to
provide strike ray 70 the men for a
short time. The railways throughout
Wales issued notices today that their
train service would be curtailed. Other
railways in Great Britain will follow
this example tomorrow.
The miners federation resumed it's
conferences this morning and one OF
the members expressed the orinion
tfat the negotiatious with the owners
would be successfully terminated in
the course of next week.
