Sparrows Damaging Gardens.

Denison, Tex, April 2S.-Truck
growers in the district adjoining Den
ison are complaining of the swarms
of sparrows which are practically ruin
ing their gardens. Thousands of the
little birds have let the downtown
district and are attacking the gardens
in the outlying district. Lettuce,
radish and mustard beds appear to
be suffering most, although it is said
that the birds do not hesitate at
young corn or oats. Many planters
are using a mixture Of arsenic and
corn meal, placed in pans where the
birds NAV eat of it. Afterwards the
dead birds are picked UP and placed
in a pile upon which oil is poured
and set afire.

Chicago, H., April 29.-"The Huer-

said Robert Kerr, an attorney who
recently arrived here from Mexico.
The situation there is far more
serious than Americans realize" he
said. 1T is vastly more important
to this country than the Balkan sit
uation. Americans are forced to flee
from Mexico because the American
flag isn't as much respected there
as are the flags of other countries
and Americans, if they remain, don't
know whether they will be able to
procure damages for their ruined
property"

Forty Want Place.
When it became known that Perry
Ballard would resign the office Of in
surance commissioner just prior to
the convening of the senate court
of impeachment, friends of Mr.. Welch
became active in his interests Mr.
Welch, however, made no applica-
tlon until the resignation of the for
mer official had been rendered and
accepted At the time a number of
applicants were already in the field
and when the race was finally closed
with the appointment, there were no
fewer than forty insurance men from
all parts of the state, after the po
sition.
Immediately upon the announce
ment that Ballard had resigned, Sen
ator Franklin of Purcell, a personal
friend of Mr.. Welch, championed the
appointment of his fellow townsman.
Senator Franklin left no stone un-
turned and urged his acquaintances 10
Join in with him. A number of the
senators therefore espoused the side
of the newly named commissioner ard
their enthusiasm added no little to-
the campaign.
Monday afternoon Senator Franklin
and Mr.. Welch were called to the
governors office, where the news
was broken to them. Friends of both
Welch ard Senator Franklin say that
it was through the untiring efforts
of the state senator that the ap-
pointment was given the Purcell can
didate.
