SINGING cANARIEs FOR SALE

The man stopped before the sign
and considered 1t. Then his glance
fell on a bench built into the win
dow. on which in neat wicker cages
dozen or more bright yellow cana
ries preened themselves In the sun.
The birds blinked in the light as
though astonished. They did not
sing.
The man studied the birds for long
time. He moved uneasily and thrust
his hands in and out of his trouser
pockets nervously. At last one OF the
hands came forth clutching crum-
pied bill The man looked at the cor
ner Of 1t with secrecy. 1t was $40.
He went into the store.
You sell these birds?" he asked

The man took the birds without re-
ply. He walked to the door. He open
ed the cages one by one. The cauar-
les. frightened at first. hesitated on
their wicker thresholds. Then. with
shrill chirps. half Of fear and half of
delight they spread their wings and
darted up and away into the clear
sky. flashing their pinions in new
found liberty, and fading at last like
specks OF gold into the sunset. The
man watched them until the last had
disappeared. He dropped the cages

Mexico City, Oct. 11.-One hundred
and ten members of the chamber Of
deputies, who had signed resolutions
of warning to President Huerta as the
result of the disappearance of DR..
Belisaro Dominguez, senator for Chi
pas, were arrested and lodged in the
penitentiary.
Five other deputies who signed the
resolution were absent when Gordon
of troops was thrown about the legis-
lative building and several hundred
soldiers invaded the chamber.
The arrests followed a demand by
President Huerta that the chamber
withdraw the resolution, which carried
the threat that the deputies would
abandon the capitol owing to an al
legged lack of guarantees tor their per-
sonal safety.
Senator Dominguez early in the
month made speech in the senate
violently attacking Huerta, saying
that not only had nothing been done
during Huerta's regime toward the
paciication of the country, but that
the present situation in the republic
was infinitely worse than before.
Declared Famine Threatened.
He said the currency Of Mexico had
deprecated, fields had been neglected
and towns RACED and that famine
threatened. He added that the situa-
ton was due first and foremost to the
fact that the Mexican people could
not resign themselves to be governed
by Huerta.
Before the hour for the regular open
ing of the session of the chamber the
basement and roof of the building had
been packed with troops. Scores of
police were scattered through the gal
leries.
When the deputies were in their
places Minister of the Interior Manuel
Carr Aldape entered the chamber.
simultaneously several hundred fed.
eral troops lined up in front of the
chamber. Senior Aldape assembled the
platform and read the reply of Presi-
dent Huerta to the resolution warning
him of the deputies intention to dis
solve the parliament and hold their
sessions elsewhere and demanding an
investigation of the disappearance OF
Senator Dominguez.
Act Of Unjustified Aggression.
The reply said that President Huer-
ia could do no less than consider the
resolution an act of unjustiaed ag-
gression and transgression Of the
rights Of the other two powers-the
executive and the courts.
When the arrests were made few
of the leaders were placed in automo.
biles, while the other deputies were
taken to the penltentiary in street cars.
Meanwhile similar demands to re-
cant had been made upon members Of
the senate, who had concurred in the
chambers resolution.
A committee of senators called on
President Huerta and signitied their
willingness to comply with his de-
mands. Later the senators formally
withdrew this action.
In anticipation of trouble heavy pa
trolls of troops are on the streets.
The rapid-ire guns which were post
ed in the interior courts of the palace
in February again are in place and
Quantities of ammunition are at hand

ORE SHIPPED IS RECORD
Minnesota State Income Is $340, 200
for Three Months.

Shipments of iron ore from proper.
ties leased from the state broke all rec.
ords during the quarter ending Sept. 30.
While exact returns are not in an
nouncement was made at the office of
the state auditor that 100000 tons
were shipped from state properties
during the quarter and that the total
income from iron mines. to the state
trust funds from these shipments will
be approximately $4,000, all of it
payable Oct. 20. This is nearly $780,
600 in excess of the estimate made by
State Auditor S. G. Iverson for the
quarter.
