high school this year. The people of
Pleasant Grove would like very much
for the school board to establish a
junior high school here. which would
give us two more grades, ninth and
tenth.
The many friends of Mr.. and Mrs.
Russ Roberts are glad to hear that
their little boy is getting better now;
he has been very i'll for the past few
weeks.
Mr.. and Mrs. John Bell, who have
been residing here for some time, have
decided to move to Mobile, Ala, which
is the former home Of Mrs. Bell. Mr..
Bell expects to go into some kind of
business there after he gets located.
We regret very much to see them leave
us. but we hope them a successful
trip.
Mrs. Mary Frazier and Mrs. Stella
Burns were the welcome guests Of Mrs.
Sidney Roberts last Sunday.
Mrs. Lizzie Radford has returned to
Pleasant Grove recently.
Mrs. Finley Richards, who has been
i'll for some few days, is improving
a little now. We hope for her recovery
soon.

she spent 81 before leaving PaIatka,
and out Of the balance she paid her
fare to Tampa. That she came to this
city is substantiated by the conductor
of the train on which she rode, but
after her arrival here she has been
seen by no one.
The girl is described as being IA
years old, five feet high, weighing 102
pounds, of light complexion, full face,
hazel eyes and light hair. The fact
that the police have been unable to
locate her and that she had practically
no money. gives rise to the superstition
that she has met with circumstances
that are not conducive to good and
that she may have been spirited away
from this city.

THE PULMOTOR
SAVES PATIENT
MRS. J. .. Isle, OF MOBILE,
PRACTICALLY GIVEN UP BY
PHYSICIANS, SAVED BY OXYGEN
PUMPED INTO LUNGS.

The Mobile Item of recent date con-
| tanned the following: To the efficiency
of the puImotor located at the plant of
the Mobile Electric Company Mrs. T..
D. Lisle, FOG ST. Michael street, owes
her life. Mrs. Lisle is now conscious
and able to talk. At o'clock Friday
morning she breathed only about once
every five minutes and the physicians
attending her, DR.. S. F. Hale and DR..
A 7. Roach, had despaired of saving
her life. According to statements
made concerning the case, Mrs. Isle
was suffering from an attack of heart
trouble.
The attending physicians gave full
credit to the tpuImotor for saving Mrs.
Lisle and are enthusiastic in their
praise Of this wonderful machine This
is the first life that has ever been
saved in Mobile by the use Of the pull
motor. It has been used in several
cases but never before, it is stated, has
the life of the patient been saved sole
~ by the use of the machine.
Mrs. Lisle was taken i'll with the
attack of heart trouble shortly after
II o'clock Thursday night. She began
to grow worse and a physician was
called. Artificial stinulants seemed
not to have the desired effect and by
2:30 O'Clock Friday morning Mrs. Lisle
was scarcely breathing and growing
steadily worse.
Another physician was called in to
assist and artificial respiration was re-
sorted to. The most strenuous meth
DDS were used and it is said that dur
ing the early hours Of Friday morning
Mrs. Isle did not breathe for from five
to seven minutes at a time. No pulse
could be felt at times and her body be-
came cold and her lips blue.

Finally one of the attending p1y-

The pulmotor was in use in this case
for q little more than three hours, at
the expiration of which Mrs. Lisle had
regained consciousness and was
breathing freely. The attending ply
sicians pronounced her out OF danger
from the present attack Of heart
trouble and state that unless the heart
trouble attacks her again her life has
been saved from the present attack.

GOOD RELATIONS BETWEEN
COUNTRIES NOT DISTURBED

London, Oct. 24.-Rather divergent
views On the Mexican situation were
expressed in the editorial and news
columns of the London newspapers to-
day. While the news, consisting en-
tirely of dispatches from Washington
and New York described affairs as
serious, the editorial articles based on
a statement published in the Times.
the first authorized version of British
policy given out to an English news
paper and which conceded with that
published in dispatches to the Assoc
ciated Press and can be summed up
as pro- British and not anti-American,
are inclined to the belief that the fric-
ton between the United States and
England is unlikely to disturb the good
relations between the two countries.
The Pail Mall Gazette today describes
the agitation to a press campaign
against Great Britain which it says
Ought TO be estimated at its true
value
The Standard says: Beyond the
coincidence that Sir Lionel Garden pre-
scented his credentials at a crucial and
perhaps an unfortunately unchosen
moment, there is nothing in Anglo
American politics to cause alarm to
serious politicians
The Westminster Gazette in discuss
ing the Mexican elections says:
EVERY friend of Mexico hopes that
the president and legislature will give
that country a government strong
enough to restore peace and order.
The difficulties facing the Mexican
government are very great and will
not be rendered less so by the refusal
of the United States to recognize the
new president and the new legislature"

MAY CANCEL ENGAGEMENT.


Western Hemisphere.
MAY CANCEL ENGAGEMENT.
The situation had assumed such as
poets that it was considered possible
that President Wilson might cancel at
the last moment his trip to Mobile
Ala. He had planned to leave early
tomorrow and be gone until Tuesday
night There was doubt in the presi-
dents mind today whether he could
afford to leave Washington at this
time.
Chairman Bacon of the senate foreign
relations committee, conferred at the
state department and White House.
He declared that while the United
States always would like to have the
approval of foreign governments in its
policy towards Mexico and would al
ways listen to suggestions, neverthe-
less this government would neither
yield its views because it had broader
and more important moral considera-
tons at hand in dealing with the Mex
lean problem than merely material in
terests.
The gravity of the situation, it was
apparent, would be increased by Felix
Diaz taking refuge in the American
consulate at Vera Cruz. The posi-
bility that the Huerta authorities
might demand his release and provoke
another emergency was fully realized.
At the state department it was said
that while no instruction had been
given to American Consul Canada at
Vera Cruz to afford an asylum to Diaz,
yet Canada's general instructions were
such that he could give refuge to Diaz
IL it seemed necessary.
Although in international law the
American consulate has not extra ter
ritorial rights, it was pointed out here
that morally the Mexican authorities
would have no right to invade the
American precincts to arrest Diaz.
5ATTLESHIPS ARE READY.
Nine battleships of the Atlantic fleet
sail tomorrow from Hampton Roads
for their Mediterranean cruise, accord
ing to original plans. They will be in
constant communication with the pow
erful wireless station here at least until
next Thursday. 1t was stated officially,
however, that they sail without any or
ders except to proceed to their Medi-
terranean destinations.
Predictions as to the course the
United States would pursue varied
greatly in administration circles. Sug-
gestions that the United States might
propose to re-establish order and con-
duct an election as was done in Cuba
were advanced in many quarters with
some degree of authoritativeness
That the United States may be re-
quired to back up measures and poll
cies is being taken into consideration
by administration officials and while
there is no comment to indicate the
trend of affairs. there Is unmistakable
evidence that high officials are pre-
pared for any eventuality.

RATHER HANG THAN BE SHOT.
Georgia Negro Tried TO Stand Of
Sheriff and Hangmen.

Louisville, Ca, May SWIM
Thompson, a negro murderer, tried
to kill Sheriff Smith to-day when the
sheriff went to Thompson's cell to
hang him.
Two years ago Thompson killed
Claude Humphrey at Avera, was con-
victed of murder and sentenced to
hang to-day. When Sheriff Smith
and two deputies went to his cell
this morning to make preparations
for the march to the scaffold Thomp-
son became defiant and threatened to
kill the first man who came in. In
some way he had armed himself with
two knives, several large Jumps Of
coal, and by dismantling his cot had
gotten the heavy metal pieces there
from to use as weapons.

LONE BANDIT RoBs TRAIN.
Secured Pocket-book With $1,000.
Several Shots Were Exchanged.

Kansas City, May 2.-The bandit
believed to be badly wounded, but
who escaped from the Kansas City
Southern Gulf Coast train after he
had shot and seriously injured Jesse
NJ. Short, millionaire mine owner
of Joplin, Mo-, and robbed the pas
sengers soon after the train had left
the Grand Central Station here about
midnight, had not been captured
early to-day.
Bleeding from wounds he received
in pistol battle with Short, the rob-
Der left trail Of blood as he fled.
This enabled officers to follow his
tracks until he arrived at the Blue
river, almost mile from the point
where he jumped from the train.
Here the trail stopped abruptly and
his pursuers expressed the belief that
he continued his flight in a boat
The train was just pulling out Of
the depot when a tall man ran out
| of the darkness of the railroad sheds
and climbed up the steps of the OBJ
servation car. He had a handker-
chief over the lower part of his face
and carried two pistols. Oscar Allen,
negro porter, who saw him board
the train, rushed out and ordered him
away. The robber covered him with
his pistol and said: 81 am going to
put over a trick here. You sit down
there and be quiet / will need you" "
After the train had proceeded
about three miles the robber ordered
Allen to go ahead of him through
the train. In the sitting room of the
observation car were w. j. Schafe, of
Neck City, Mo-, and f. A. Zeaman, of
Eureka Springs, Ark. The robbers
voice trembled as he demanded their
valuables, but they offered no resist
ance and gave him money and jew
elry amounting to about 5000
Preceded by the frightened negro,
the robber then entered the. chair
car, where there were about dozen
passengers, all men. Hold up your
hands," was the command with
which the robber greeted them. The
passengers readily complied. The
bandit passed along collecting their
money and jewelry. The robbery of
the chair car was accomplished in
five minutes, and the surprised pas
sengers obeyed the final injunction
of the robber to sit down and remain
quiet.
The Pullman car was entered next
After robbing two passengers, from
whom he secured small amounts of
money, the robber came to the berth
occupied my Short.
Give me your money" the rob-
ber demanded in a whisper as he
shook the sleeping man. When
awakened sufficiently to realize the
import of the command, Short hand
ed over $1,000 and large diamond
stud AS. the robber turned to leave
Short seized a revolver and fired
through the curtains. The robber
returned the fire and both men emp
tied their weapons, each shooting
blindly through the curtain, which
was perforated by almost a dozen
bullets. One bullet struck Shorts
forehead, another went through an
arm and a.third lodged in his knee.

AUsTIN's THIRD VICTIM DEAD.
DIR. Moore Succumbs to Wounds-Fu-
gitive Still at Large.

Hampton, May 5.-News reached
hampton this morning that DR.. S. G.
Moore, who was wounded by the ne
gro Austin in the first battle with
him, and who bravely fought Austin
after being seriously wounded, died
this morning at O'Clock at hospi-
tai in Columbia.
Sheriff j. H. Lightsey returned to
Hampton to-day and brought the de-
tails of the hunt for Richard Austin,
the alleged attempted rapist and the
slayer of three white men. Yester-
day afternoon, said Sheriff Lightsey,
about l.30 o'clock, about half a mile
from the Savannah river, opposite
Cohen's Bluff, the dogs from Barn
well county picked UP the trail of the
negro and ran it for about a mile.
The swamp being so dry the dogs
lost the trail and the posse and She
riff Lightsey tracked Austin for about
three miles down the river swamp to
a point known as Johnson's Landing.
There the track could not be carried
further, as night came on.
A fresh party started from Estill
and Luray this morning with blood
hounds to renew the search. 1t is
still believed that Austin Is in South
Carolina and will not leave until
matters quiet down, which condition
is not anticipated
The local officers are almost ex-
hausted from their long hunt, and it
is understood that a large reward
will be offered for the capture of

ANTt-ALrBN BILL HAS PASSED.
California Senate Ratifies Bill As
Drawn by Attorney General Webb.

Sacramento, Cal, May 3.--The ad-
ministration anti-alien land-holding
bill, drawn by Attorney General
Webb passed the Senate at 12.45
this morning by vote Of SO to Q, af-
ter nearly ten hours Of debate. The
only negative votes were cast by Sen
ators Cartwright, Democrat, and
Wright, Republican. The principal
provisions of the bill are as follows:
i. .Aliens eligible to citizenship
may acquire and hold land to the
same extent as citizens.
q. All other aliens are limited to
the specific rights conferred upon
themby the existing treaties between
the United States and the nations OF
whichssuch aliens are citizens or sub
jects.{ In the case OF the Japanese
the bill prohibits ownership of farm
ing oragricultural lands, while per-
mitting them to own residences, fac
tories, manufactures and shops.
3. 3.@Leases of agricultural lands by
such9A Aliens are permitted for a pc
riod Hot exceeding three years. There
is a Qliestion as to whether renewals
would be lawful.
A. Aliens Ineligible cannot inherit
land, On the death Of an alien land
holder his property shall be sold by
the probate court and the proceeds
distributed to his heirs.
5.RThe State specifically reserves
its sovereign right to enact any and
all laws in the future with respect to

ASpmpanion measure, identical in
phraseology, probably will pass the
Assembly to-day and will be signed
by Governor Johnson after a rea-
sonable time has elapsed in which to
hear p4ssible protests from President
WILSON, who has requested respite.
Ins the closing hours of the debate
partisanship was lost sight of. Dem
ocrats and Progressives voted to-
gethSs sin response to what they took
to be the demand of the people of
California. Their only difference in
the tend was over tho question of
whether the bill was drastic enough.
The futility of Secretary Bryan's s
mission was shown in the vote of his
own party. Nine of the ten Demo-
Gratis voted contrary to the advice
which he brought from President
Wilson, while not single Progress
sive yielded to his expressed wishes.
Hope to Nullify Law.
Washington, May 5---The Japanese
embassy was supplied by the State
Department to-day with a copy of
the alien land owning bill passed by
the California. Legislature and the
ambassador will employ the time be-
tween now and Secretary Bryan's
return to Washington in preparing a
formal protest against the measure
Apparently the embassy has nc hope
that any word President Wilson may
send after Secretary Bryan returns
will influence Governor johnson to
withhold his signature from the act,
so the only object of the protest will
be to acquaint the American people
| with the Japanese contention, and,
If possible, to influence the executive
branch OF the government to endea-
vor to nullify the action of the Cali
fornia Legislature.
