The Senator from New Mexico. who will
assist the subcommittee of the Commit

ton of the reports that the Mexican and
Cuban revolutions were financed from the

OF the Mexican government might proceed
from the fact that IL was aware that he
had knowledge of certain transactions

government and that he had accurate
knowledge OF conditions in Mexico. If
there had been any desire to verify the
facts in the charges of the government

done through prominent government OFF,

Senator Fall will probably leave for El
Paso shortly after the adjournment or

Official reports from consuls and army
officers indicate that petty depredauons
by the Mexican rebels arc widespread.

Theodore Cable, the Crimson's fore

on the team, and his grand work all

have earned for him the position hands

Emotions and the Senses.

Pleasurable sensations arouse pleas
ant emotions. The sunshine is always
enhVening to some people, and the
gloom always depressing-men have
despaired in darkness and taken their
lives because of an oppression due to

what our sensations shall be, and so
to some extent determine our emo
lions. but the; mere qualification Of
sense Is nearly always followed by de-
pressing emotions.
