ant papers of the day are picked out
by Mr.. Wilson and taken to his pri.
vate study for night consideration. AT.
ter dinner he seeks the seclusion of
his study, his black note book, and his
filing cabinet.
At first he set 1890 p. m. as the hour
to quit work and go to bed. But he has
not been able to keep the schedule. For
the last few weeks the president has
not been able to get out of his study
before 1870 o'clock. The night work
is beginning to tell on him.
1t is difficult to tell from mere OBJ
servation when the president is tired.
His normal actions are so methodcal
and measured in pace that they betray
less of strain. His face is so bony,
with skin so tightly drawn over an.
giles and high spots that there is no
deepening of lines or the tenseness of
features observable in most men un.
der pressure. Color of countenance he
has not. so pallor of cheek is in him a
normal condition.
Perhaps the only indications of the
strain which the president is expert
encing are to be found in his manner
rather than in his appearance. He is
even more measured and reserved in
speech and action than he was when
he entered the White House. He is at.
tempting to conserve his mental forces
with scientific care and precision.
Underneath the calm exterior there
is an active nervous system, although
people say that Mr.. Wilson has no
nerves. 1t is beginning to show itself
now and then. Standing behind
chair with his hands on the back of it
a few days ago. his fingers uncon-
sciously drummed tattoo. When
reading a message personally to Con-
gress a few weeks ago there was a
nervous note in his voice for a few
moments.
The general manager of the United
States government has big job mere
ly directing the ordinary duties of adj
ministration. But when there are add
ed the ceaseless pressure of politicians
for Office and the attempt to initiate
many reforms of great magnitude in
system. president has more than one
man can physically accomplish.
Private Secretary Tumulty is watch
ing his chief and trying to shield him
from as many troubles as possible, for
once let the president get subject in
hand he goes through it with a thor.
oughness that requires laborious eff
| fort.
| Mr.. Wilson will not admit he Is
working too hard, or that he Is tired
some night. He has been several
months in the White House, and dur
ing that time he has scored two long
credit marks:
/. He has not uttered a complaint
about anything or anybody.
2. He has not spoken cross word.

"HE possibilities in fruit culture
upon restricted areas have been
very generally overlooked, with
the result that many persons
who own city lot. suburban home

q luxury. This can all be changed,
and much of the land which Is now
practically waste and entirely unre-
munerative can be made to produce
fruits in sufficient quantity to give
them a regular place upon the family

greatly to the attractiveness of the

HOW PRESIDENT WILSON DOES HIS WORK

"When-how-where does the presi-
dent work." That is a question that
has been asked many, many times by
many, many people all over this ma
ton, especially by people who know
something of the duties, something of
the responsibilities, something of the
eVer-incessant, never-ending demands
on the time of man in such a posi-.
ton as that And the answer to that
question is given in part, at least, in
the following article from the New
York World:
Executive decisions that direct the
affairs of the nation are made at night
by the president
The central control station of the
great machinery of government is a Sc
cluded room on the second floor of the
White House, where Mr. Wilson works
alone in silence while the world
sleeps.
A black leather covered note book,
which nobody but himself reads, is the
doomsday book of America for it con.
tains the secrets of state and the
thoughts of the president written by
his own hand.
This book has loose leaves that can
be detached and fresh ones put in. The
sheets are the size of business letter
Of trio do
in shorthand pot hooks" system Of
writing which Mr.. Wilson has prac-
ticed for many years.
The private study contains a fiat top
desk and filing cabinet. The presi-
dent is more devoted to his black leath-
err note book and his filing cabinet
than to any other possession. No sec
rotary or clerk may touch them. He
works over the filing case with the pre-
cision and skill of system expert. He
has his own plan of indexing and can
instantly turn to any paper which he
has put away.
AT o'clock in the morning the pres
ident leaves the main part of the
White House, after having breakfasted
with his family, and goes to the west
wing of the building, long extension,
one story in height, devoted to exec
utive offices. He carries with him the
precious black note book. Secretary
Tumulty and stenographer join him.
The notes written the night before in
the study are dictated and the plans
thought out are outlined for the pri-
vate secretary to put into operation.
After an hour of this work the rest
of the presidents day is taken up by
appointments. previously arranged.
Cabinet officers, senators, representa-.
tives, prominent men from many cit
les, delegations of organizations, and
citizens of every class endeavor to get
audiences with the president. 1t is
not difficult, either, if they have some
business or subject of general welfare

Recently there was a drill on this
stadium during which 1900 athletes
took part in the exercises. All the ath-
letes were dressed exactly alike, and
the sight was an inspiring one. They
went through the movements together

scene was one never witnessed before,
In the picture part Of the new field

of the enormity of the stadium by this
view.
This is by far the largest athletic
field in the world. and the German
bows are as much interested in all
kinds Of sports as any boys of any
other nation.
The fact that German authorities re-
quire compulsory military service tends
to promote interest in athletics among
the young boys Of that country. They
always display keen interest IN
swimming. running. jumping. throw
ing the hammer and other sports which
characterized the Olympic games. but
there Is no national game In Germany
like baseball in America or cricket In
England. Golf and tennis are games
that the Germans enjoy to great eX-
tent In the stadium at Leipzig there
may always be found large throngs OF
boys and young men taking part in va
riOus sports.

BIG RANCH SOLD TO
TEXANS IN SONORA

DOUGLAS. April 16.-Upon the ar
rival here today of w. A. Coggin, Of
the firm of Coggin & Wheeler, of FL
Paso, it was learned that the great
Booker ranch in Sonora has been sold.
The ranch is one Of the largest single
tracts held by an American and con-
tains approximately 10000 acres.
The purchasers are w. b. Christian
and A. l.. Wassen, of Big Springs,
Tex, and the deal was made through
Coggin & Wheeler. The amount paid
is said to show a large increase per
acre in the selling price Of Sonora
ranch land but Air Coggin was not
willing TO give the exact figure. The
tract lies directly along the Chihua.
hua border and includes some of the
finest grazing land in the state Of
Sonora. II is at present unstOcksd,
bit it is the intention of the purchas-
ers TO secure a large herd of cattle
from the southern part of Sonora to
stock it. The first step, however, will
be to put the entire tract under fence.
Mr. Christian and Mr.. Wassen will
both make their homes in Douglas.

STATE CONSUL
SAYS A WORD
Col. GuilfoyIe Entitled to
Credit for His Work on
American Side, But Had
Nothing to Do in Sonora

Editor the Review
The Douglas International of Tues
day. April 15, referring to the battle
at Naco, Sonora on April 18th. makes
the following statements:
80 completely did Col Guilfoyle
commander of the Ninth cavalry. have
control OF the situation at Naco
through the whole siege which was
ended last Sunday by the final strug-
gle, that Oregon scarcely made a
move before asking GuiIfoyle about Il.
rms gave the commander of the iSinth
cavalry the distinction of practically
directing the movements on both
Sides" etc,
While credit must be given Obre-
gon and the state troops for their
hesire TO safeguard American property
and lives, it remains a fact i'm the
minds of those who followed the mat
ter closely that the thorough plan
formulated Col. Guilfoyle to absolute
" control the situation, and his in
domitable insistence on the execution
OF the same was the cause OF the per
feet success of the movements on the
part OF the patrol
The above statements have not
reached Col. Obregon as he left Naco
this morning. Therefore, | will en-
deayor TO say something in his favor
In the first place / must say that
Col Oregon never participated with
Col. Guilfoyie as to his movements
Therefore the American colonel dtl
not have the distinction of practically
directing the movements on both
sides as claimed by the Douglas Ia
ternational
IN the second place. ? beg TO say
that the plans formulated by Col.
Guilfoyle' on the American side did
not in any way interfere with those
formulated by Col. Obregon i'm Naco.
Sonora, and in consequence IL was
due TO the Mexican colonel that there
was perfect success of the move
ments" on the Mexican side, and that
is the reason why there was such
perfect management and so little
damage done on the American side.
In closing | viii say that | an
sure Col Obregon would never permit
himself to have Col Guilfoyle order
him or tell him at the start what he
could and could not do Our Col
onel Obregon is reputed as one Of the
highest military leaders and ia per-
fectly conscious of his war move
ments.
That Col. Guiifoyle exercised a good
patrol over the American line is out
of discussion, but let me say once for
all that be did not Interfere with our
victory at Naco. Sonora. in no man
ner
The only contact Col. Oregon had
with the American colonel was that
Of courtesy and to advise him as 10

tons and to assure him that there
would be no shooting into American
territory by the State forces.
