Mexico City, Feb. 21.-It is certain

ernor of Sonora, has telegraphed from
Mexicali to Gov. Maytorena of Sonora
Offering him 5000 men and 1000, 900
pesos to restore Madero to office. Gov.
Maytorena has telegraphed the Sen
ate and Provisional President Huerta
repudiating the administration. The
Governor of Yucatan, ignorant of the
death of Gustavo Madere, has wired
him Offering the services of 1900 men
and an amount of money to assist in a
new revolution.

Swan Island Burned.
Owned by American Ice Co.,
We're TO Have Been Filled.
Deaths, Friday, Of James A. Low

Richmond, Me, Feb. 21.-tSpeciaD.-
Fire, early this evening, destroyed the
old Underwood icehouses and the
Capt. ". A. Turner farm houses, on
the east side of Swan Island, town of
Perkins. The cause is unknown. but
it thought to have been the work of
tramps. Loss, $1,000 to $4,000; little in
surance.
The Underwood houses consisted OF
six rooms. They were not in very
sood repair, but it was the intention
of the owners. the American Ice Co.,
to fill them, if possible, this winter.
The loss is total no insurance.
The Capt. Blanchard residence, adj
jacent to the ice houses, was saved,
after a hard fight.
The farm buildings, owned by Capt.
". a. Turner of Richmond and for
merry known as the White place, were
also burned. This fire was as mys.
ferrous as that al the ice houses. vii.

The home of Selectman W. f. Reed

The opinion of Selectman Reed and
others is that tramps, or men look

sought shelter in the old ice houses

cidentally have set the fire.

CHICAGO NOT so BAD.
Chicagoan Claims It's Really Most
Restful City.

Chicago. June 3O-Chicago is
proven to be the most restfuI city of
a population of more than 100000 in
the United States by statistics made
public today by Frederick Rex, mu-
nicipal reference librarian. According
to his figures the death rate here from
diseases of the nervous system is 80. 1
for each 100, 900 persons. Minneapolis
is second with a rate of 945.
Mr.. Rex prepared his table to deny
the charge of alienists and neurolo-
gists recently in conference here that
the noise of the city and the fast pace
led by the residents" are conducive
to nervous disorders.
New York, the statistician found
has a rate of 104.5; New Orleans has
the highest rate of 2O6.3; Washington,

A new DEPUTY
go. StanSfieId Appointed
Today by Kiene.
He Is Acting for AutOistS to
Catch Reckless AutOists.

George W. Stansf1eld has been issued
a commission as a deputy sheriff by
Sheriff L. L. Kiene, and sworn in by
County Clerk Swayze. And thereby
hangs a little tale that may not be
without some interest to the reckless
and law breaking automobilists who
often operate their machines like wild
men in the outskirts of the city and
along in the rural sections of Shawnee
county.
A number of prominent automobilists
in the city who believe that the rules
automobiles are reasonable and should
be obeyed have banded together in
sort of an automobile law and order
society. And in order that they Will
have authority to deal properly and
forcefully with the speedomaniacs and
other violators of the automobile laws
each of them is going to obtain COM
mission as a deputy sheriff. Mr.. Stans-
field is merely the first to qualify in
this respect. Several other gentlemen
of like mould and determination will
follow him shortly.
They have long since reached the
conclusion that the the careless driving
including excessive speeding, of a few
of the automobilists in this neck of
the woods has done much to bring
criticism the heads of all automo-
bilists, the great majority of whom are
careful drivers and strive to obey the
automobile laws in all particulars.
In the heart of the city, the police
are doing pretty well these days in
putting crimp in the ambitions of
certain car owners and chauffeurS to
break all of the extant automobile
records. But Topeka covers lot of
territory. 1t is impossible, almost, that
the outskirts of the city can be thor
oughly policed against scorching au-
tomobilists and others who disregard
the regulations regarding lights and
the conspicuous display of the num-
Der of their licenses. Nor is the sherif's
force of sufficient size that any at
tempt can be made by it to police the
county thoroughfares, except in a
casual way against such automobilists.
These being the conditions, and
there being a necessity for effective
little or no attention to any of the
and the men who have banded with
him in this enterprise. are going to lend
their aid in every possible way to the
peace officers of the city and the
county for the suppression of those
who turn their automobiles into public
nusances
In no sense of the word will these
new deputy sheriffs regularly patrol
the highways and byways of Topeka
and Shawnee county hunting for Of
tenders against the automobile laws.
But when they are out on pleasure
or business drives in their own cars, |
and they happen across such offenders, |
they will be prepared to take them into
custody and see that they get the
punishment they deserve.

of the town seven gray haired women
who, so years ago, acted as volunteer

They were exceedingly heavy, and
when the baggage man weighed them

trunk weighed only 225 pounds, he sug-

heavy one. She demurred, saying that
her husband would take them back to

be made and that she would take the

from her anxiety, they contained
whisky, as the trunks had come empty
from Bartlesville the day before. He

they drove in that night just at train
time, arrested the couple. The trunks
were opened and each was found to
