manding that they restore order and re-

that he shall intervene.
"The President is authorized the bill

GRAVE PERIL

by Latest Reports From War
Troubled Republic
AMBASSADOR RUSHES
ON TO WASHINGTON
By The United Press.

BY The United Press.
WASHINGTON, July 22-All foreign
ers in interior Mexico are in grave
danger today. Additional advices re-
ceived from confidential sources in
dicates that their peril is much great
er than in the days Immediately fol-
living the overthrow of the Madero
rule. This is chiefly due TO the fact
that the Huerta government is as
sailed on all sides and that many Of
the so-called bands of revolutionists
are in reality only armed forces of
robbers plundering at will and using
torture and even murder TO enforce
their demand for gold
The entire country is in a state of
turmoil Both the Federal and
revolutionary forces are tanning the
flame of discomfort with the presence
of foreigners. This is proven by the
lconfidential advices received at the
State Department by its accredited
lsecret Representatives who are cover
ing every foot of the troubled zone.
And as fast as each report is re-
lceived here, it is turned over to
/ Counsellor John Bassett Moore. act
ing Secretary of State, and copy

There is no attempt being made to

tion is greatly troubling the President.
He has sent word to Ambassador
Henry Lane Wilson, at Havana, 20

here. The customs officials at Key
West have been telegraphed by the
I Treasury Department to rush Wilson
lashore the moment his vessel reaches
that port and to pass his baggage In
the interest of haste. He has been
asked TO make the trip to the capital
as fast as steam can carry him and
he will be accorded an interview with
the President Immediately on his ar
rival.
The President maintains an open mind
on the Mexican problem He has care
fully examined the confidential reports
received here by the State Department
and has some very searching question:

For this use a Gan of peaches or OF

This dish is excellent made of fresh

oranges will answer-or with any
kind of soaked fried fruit or canned
fruit, berries or the larger fruits. Ba-

Picked Peppers.


Choose rather large peppers; wash
clean, cut off the tops and scrape out
all seeds. Fill with a mixture made as
follows: To two quarts of finely crop
ped cabbage add four large onions,
about two tablespoonfuls of pepper
seed, two ~tablespoonfuls of salt, and
either two cupfuls of chopped celery,
or one-half teaspoonful of celery seed
Pack the peppers as solidly as poss1-
BILE, taking care not to burst them, and
press the tops back on. Lay in jars
or crooks and cover with hot vinegar.
To one gallon of vinegar use about
half water if the vinegar is very
strong, add four cups of sugar and a
teaspoonful of mixed spices; any
spice liked extra well a be used.
Cover the peppers and set away
where cool. They do not need seal
ing.

sand Cure for Fatigue.

One Of the most eficacious cures
for fatigue from overwork consists In
walking barefoot In sand. The nerves
of the sole and heel are slightly irri-
tated by coming in contact with the
grains and accelerate the circulation
OF the blood in all parts of the body.
The effect produced is highly invig-
Grating. Besides this, the monotony
of an ample extent of yellow sand ex-
ercises a soporiic effect on the brain
which induces sleep.-Harper's Week

Little Things In Themselves, but They

A small basin OF hot water will IA
cilitate the cutting of citron for mince-

knife becomes sticky dip it into the
water to dissolve the sugar.
Take a piece of one-eight stiff wire,
bend about this at short intervals
small wires shaped into hooks and

To remove ink stain from a carpet
mix some cornstarch in half a cup
buttermilk until a thick paste is
formed. Apply this to the ink spot
On the second or third day moisten
this a little bit. Scape it off on the
fourth day and all traces of the stain
will disappear.
When the bread or cake sticks to
the pan tip the latter up to an angle
less than As degrees to the table and
lay a damp cloth on the bottom of it,
This causes steam to arise inside OF
the pan. The bread is released by the
steam and will slip out slowly.
