HUERTA FACES REVOLT.

MEXICO CITY, March g.
The Mexican provisional gov
eminent under Huerta, is facing
a crisis.
Secret intrigues, open tits
and bitches in the peace parleys
with the rebel chiefs have
brought about a condition which
seriously menaces the new re-
gime.
Unpleasant news is being re-
ceived from the northern part of
the country where it is planned
to set up an Independent gov
eminent.
The announcement comes
here that it is the plan of Vas
quez Gomez, General Carranza,
the rebellious governor of Goa
hula, and Governor Pesqueria,
governor of Sonora, to have the
states of Chihuahua, Sonora and
Coahuila secede from the repub-
lie and set up a separate govern
ment.
This state of affairs has also
added to the complications in
the negotiations with the rebel
chiefs.
The standing army is being
increased with great rapidity.

Easy to Catch a Beau.

The Tyroleans and Austrtans have
many superstitions and 1t Is a curious
fact that often high and low believe IN
the same old yarn with equal sincerity.
Tyroiean folklore pays abundant at
tention to girls signing for another's
beau or for a beau personally unknown
to her; according to superstition they
are comparatively easy to catch. And
here is the recipe:
Get a wheel with an iron hoop and
bind to the seventh spoke little bird
named why-neck. Secure the wheel IN
The ordinary way and turn 1t, singing:
II will get him even II he struggles as
hard as the why" The more the bird
struggles the more honor IN securing
the mans affection.

when an action in regard to safety
razors having been brought before the

for his knowledge Of mechanics, made
a demonstration Of the principles on
which the safety razor works, to his
brother peers. According to one au'
thority, "object lessons" as teachers
would call them, have been unknown
in the upper chamber, but they have
not been without precedent In the
commons. The most famous was the
production Of a dagger by Edmund
