Mexico city. Feb. l5.-While the
federal guns pounded the Diaz for
tifcations in the arsenal and the re-
bells sent back shell for shell. the
senate sat today and discussed the
ousting Of Madero from the -presi
dency. The fighting in the streets Of
the Mexican capital at times today
was as savage as on any other day
of the weeks battle.
The American embassy again came
directly within the line Of fire, and
the American ambassador Henry
Lane Wilson. had a narrow escape
from a rifle bullet which whistled
close to his head within the embassy.
Shortly before o'clock, the German
legation was struck By "a shell. There

The situation in Mexico City. apart
from its terrifying aspect. is re-
markable one. Friends Of President
Madero fully expected his rosigna-
tion; but as the day wore along he
became fixed in his determination to
retain the reins Of power To the
Spanish minister, Senor Cologan y
Cologan. he said:
Il will not resign was elected by
the people / am the constitutional
president | will die before | resign
And amid all the confusions and
alarms. at S o'clock the Mexican gov
ernment applied the censorship to all
dispatches and cable messages. This
will vastly increase the difficulties Of
informing the outside world Of the
operations within the Mexican capital
and will effectually suppress incom-
ing dispatches regarding conditions in
other parts Of the republic.
During the night messengers went
about the city locating senators and
asking them to attend special ses-
sion in order to discuss the situation
and attempt a solution Of what is re-
cugnized by almost all Mexicans as
critical. None than a quorum of sem
ators was present al the meeting
which took place in the chamber Of
deputies. instead Of in the senate
chamber at the national palace.
The discussion lasted a long time
and great crowd surrounded the
building. The scene was almost iden-
tical with that when congress met to
consider the advisability of bringing
about the resignation of Porfirio Diaz.
IN one material respect it differed.
There were no mounted police or sol

S0AFS
the throes Of spring cleaning in 9
house of owe 1000 rooms, It sounds
impossible, but something very like
it is done III all the great railroad
yards Of the country. In fact, a house
Of II 600 rooms could be a little mat
ter for the men in charge of cleaning
railroad cars.
In the immense yard at ~Sunnyside,
l.. l., over II 900 cars are cleaned
every month-more than $50 d day
and only the cars on long distance
trains and dining cars are handled
here.
When the Sunnysido cleaners begin,
first the carpets are removed. The
housewife takes up hers once or twice
a year, but four days is the outside
limit in a car. They are taken to a
platform constructed for the purpose
and every particle OF dust removed by
the suction of a vacuum process. In
the meantime, what has happened to
the car? Here compressed air has
been at work. The blowers, as the
men are called. have turned a purify
ing, all p~eryading steam from their
hoses into every nook and Granny. The
seats are gone over and the dust swirl
ed out Of the window. giving the i'm
preston that the car is aire. When
tie nozzle is turned on the window
itself myriads OF particles Of dust and
cinders take fight from their hiding
places around the SASH.
Next comes a man with a mop. The
floors Of the steel cars are made Of
a mixture OF cement and ground cork,
and are much easier to clean than
wood. After they have been scrub
bed thoroughly, women with cloths go
over the steel framework, polishing it
to the shining point. Finally, after
the carpets are laid, there is another
careful busting with cloths and the
car is ready fer another trip.
So much Tor the interior. but DO you
think because the outside of the cars
are usually a glossy red that they
would stay that way without care?
Cars coming from the south are COW
cred with a fine white dust that is
very difficult to remove After a
rain the dirt sticks ON the smooth
steel like a coat OF paint.
Housework on a dining car is even
more elaborate. There are the sill
ver and kitchen utensils TO polish,
soiled linen to be changed for clean,
and ~eupboards to be washed, When
this is done the car is stocked. and
then, though it has been subjected to
the process already described. every
thing is rubbed off with cloths again
before it goes out. The men who do
the work may not look as neat as the
housewife in cap and apron, but let
her put her finger where she viii
when they have finished, she will find
no dirt.

Alfalfa for Dakota

Brookings.-Ihe Legislature before
it adjourned appropriated the sum of
$4,000 to send Prof. N. +. Hansen, of
the state college, to Siberia to gather
more alfalfa seed for the benefit Of
the settlers west of the river, and $15,-
600 for the propagation OF alfalfa in
the same section.
Prof. Hansen will leave for Siberia
some time in May, after the planting
in his department at the state college
is completed He will so alone from
here. and make up his party in Russia,
getting men that understand the lam
guage and conditionin Siberia. lie will
go to eastern Mongolia, where there
is an alfalfa that thrives on the hard,
dry uplands. with little moisture and
hot summers and cold winters. 1t is
thought that this plant will endure the
severe conditions to be found III some
sections Of the country west Of the
river. He will employ native labor
force to get as much as possible be-
fore snow comes. He expects 10 re-

SENSATIONAL CHARGE.
Many Signatures to Initiative Petition
Alleged to Be F~orgeries.

Huron.-A sensation was sprung
here by the announcement of the dis
covery OF %forgeries of signatures to
the initiative petition to repeal the
Richards primary law.
James Coffey, chairman Of the Ed.
S.. Johnson Democratic state %organiZa-
ton, brought the blank petition to
Huron for signatures, and he also
filed it with the secretary of state or
March 5 with others. The legislature
Immediately submitted it to a direct
vote of the people at the next general
election.
Those in charge of the investigation
believe they are on the track of the
person who committed the forgeries.
Arrests are expected to follow. The
statutory penalty in this case is $500
and penitentiary imprisonment for not
more than five years for each sigma
>ture forged.
Seventeen signatures in all were OBJ
tanned to the petition from the city of
Huron and vicinity, ten of which are
said to be forgeries. Different per-
sons whose names We're forged to the
petition have already signed afidGvits
declaring they saw or signed the
petition. These names all appear on
page 1873 of the general petition. Per-
sons whose names were forged to the
petition were presented with photo
graphic copies of the petition certified
by the secretary Of state.
w. S. Davis, who went 10 Pierre to
examine and photograph the petition,
says there is page after page in the
petition where n person has written
in more than one name.

and an Invocation was given by Rev.
a. Kasoerg OF the English Lutheran
church. Addresses were mace by
John n. Holmes. James Holm, Doug

ard Jaynes, John H. Loekhart and 9th
ers. to which Mr.. Hyde responded in a
speech of much feeling, Get together
for the upbuilding of Pierre was the
dominant note of the occasion, and a
determination to forget the dissen-
sions and mistakes of the past and
unite for the advancement of every
portion of the city was the theme of
all of the speakers. Hyde has large
plans for the future of the capital city,
as an earnest of which he will this
season erect a splendid residence near
the capitol for his own home and sew
eral other buildings. Il of which will
be a business building in the lower
part of town. Hyde's other buildings
are all located 'on the hill"

Work Of American Railroad Builders
4 Revelation to Visiting Experts
From Abroad.

One OF the things that a%stounded
the foreign party of the Geographical
society that recently made a tour of
the United States. stopping at such
places as Crater Lake. Tahoe Lake
and other western curiosities, was the
Wonderful railroad engineering
through the passes Of the Rockies
and the Canadian Selkirks. Another
revelation was the fact that most of
this difficult engineering and construc-
ton work was done by American en-
glneers and that American engineers
were among the foremost in railroad
construction in Mexico and South
America. The wonderful Trans
Andes road which will make Peru 20
days nearer 10 New York and which
viii connect the Montana of Peru and
Brazil is largely the work of Amer
lean engineers and we have examples
of railroad construction in North
America, absolutely unique and calcu-
lated to make Europe sit up and
take notice"
For instance a wonderful piece of
reconstruction work, just finished on
one Of our great transcontinental
lines. has been the building of a con
crete snowshod-the first ever con
structed-over a stretch Of the road
where a few years ago there were ter
rible snowslidas, Most of the large
railroads reaching to the Pacific coast
have snoWsheds at some point in
their length, for in places In the great
mountain ranges which they cross the
snow melts rapidly and m down
with terrific force, sweeping ali before
1t, but this is the only road to adopt
concrete for a snowsh"d. Concrete
has done We'll for bridges and cul-
Verts. SO the engineers advocated it's
use here as an experiment. 1t pos
sesses several advantages over wood
as 1t can be riveteG firmly to the
mountain side. Another excellent fea-
ture is that The side away from the
mountain can be left open in summer,
thus securing daylight, fresh air and
scenery.

The Tailor's Part in It.

A half century ago the cousins Of
John Chinaman in Nippon dressed
very much like the people of Picking.
The very first indication of an aspi-
ration toward higher civilization
among the Japanese was Z ,ldent
With their adopting European cos
tunes. You see a Japanese in Paris
along the Champs Elysees, and he is
the picture of the veriest French
dandy, who is known as a boule-
Warbler, with his high hat, his redin-
cote, spats, gloves and cane. At
Hyde Park corner in London, or
along the Bird Cage walk, the Jap
anese Is rugged out in the exact sem
blance of the fop from Belgrave. He
has been made a modern man and en-
dowed with the highest civilization
through the instrumentality of the
English tailor.
