amazed to find trying to hide in a

she was forced to leave her home

She said her mother died when she
was about months old and that her
father married another woman. The
stepmother according to the girl iii
used her and she was forced to flee.
Miss Hussy said she came to Salt
Lake to make her home with an aunt
Mrs. Margaret Misell, 40 Sixth West
street, but that her uncle did not like
her and made things so uncomfort-
able for her she was forced to leave
that place.

COMING HOME FROM MISSION

Ogden, Feb. 13.-Word has been
received that Thomas Mckay, head OF
the German and Swiss missions, will
depart for home on February 20, and
arrive in Ogden about the middle of
March.
Before leaving Europe, the mis-
sionary will travel through Italy.
Thomas Mckay has been in charge
of the central European mission more
than three years, during which time
he has won distinction as one Of the
most successful propagandists in the
service of the Mormon church. His
field has been most difficult one to
supervise, because of the opposition
of the German government to the
spread of the Mormon religion, but
he has been equal to the task, and
with his departure, leaves the mis-
sion in better condition than ever.

Washington, Feb. 13.-Realizing
the danger OF American residents In
Mexico from the circulation OF err
lcneous press dispatches telling of

inent today issued another circular
to It's diplomatic and consular repre-

United States government for Mexico.
During the Madero revolution the
state issued similar circular. Since
the present trouble assumed serious
proportions the department has made
every effort to stop the stories OF in
tervention by making plain its poll
cy towards the sister republic.
The American representatives IN
Mexico have been instructed to ci1cu
late the note in the press and to use
every means to get the denial before
the populace.
In the note the sincerest friendship
for Mexico and the Mexican people
is expressed with the hope that the
blessings of peace will soon return 20
them.
Mexicos internal political affairs
are nat a point of concern in this gov
eminent, according to the nate and
the American government demands
nothing but the respect and protes-
ton of American life and property.
The Mexicon government has with

Nav Affect strawbraid.

Washington, Feb. 17:-The gem
eraI fear that the Chinese revolution
may have a depressing effect upon
the strawbraid industry of China
and consequently, upon the quantity
of straw imported into this country
for the making of straw hats-is not
founded upon fact, according to a re-
port Just made by Consul j. G, Nc
Nally, at T~slngtau, China, to the
state department.
McNally states that the straw hat
industry In this country is in no dam
ger of being hampered by lack Of
material because the activities of the
revolutionists have not, SO far, ma
~terially decreased the work of the
straw CATERERS or braiders in China
and there appears to be little chance
OF interference with this work. AS
proof of this, the consul shows that
the aggregate net value OF straw
braid exports to the United States
from Tsingtau during the December
quarter, 1910, was s~209,746; while
the value OF the braid exported dur
ing the same quarter for 1911 was
$379,900. Tsingtau is the recog-
nfzed strawbraid center of China and
the leading export firms of the far
East have large branches with ex-
perts in charge of the trade to
American and European countries.
The straw is grown by the farmers
of Shangtung and the industry is one
of great Importance to the people of
the province. The braid Is made by
peasants of both sexes and all ages
and liz exclusively a household i'm
dustry. The better quality, as
shipped to the United States Is
plated by girls of experience and
ability, while ordinary qualities are
made by the aged and very young.
During the summer months, when
the men are employed in the fields
the crop, every member
of the household is engaged In plait-
Ing the straw and 1t is frequently
necessary to hire outside persons 10
assist in keeping ahead of the nu-
merous orders for pIaits. The wages
of these persons vary from four to
sixteen cents a day, only expert
plaiters receiving the latter price.
