Fletcher On His Way.

Rear Admiral Fletcher has reported
his departure from Vera Cruz on TINS
mission. 1t is assumed that he is pro-
ceeding on the battleship Rhode ISL
and his flagship. The battleship
Louisiana and the sunboat Wheeling
| are already at Tuxpam. and it is eX-
Ipected that the New Hampshire, which
was there until recently, will soon re-
turn to that port.
| Protecting foreign oil property by the
use of American marines and bluejacH-
cts presents a difficult military prob
lem. The oil wells are about twenty
five miles back from the coast, while
the great storage tanks are on the
coast. The tanks can be protected by
landing parties with comparative ease,
but to take care Of the gushers, which
is just as important, is a larger task
and will require hundreds OF men.
The local agents Of the oil interests
are known to be fearful Of trouble, and
more than one representation has oeen
made by the oil companies to the State
Department These representations
have come from both American and
British interests.
There is room, however, for speCula-
tive belief that the situation is more
serious than the administration will ad-
nit. There is already one rear admiral
of the United States Navy on the spot
Rear Admiral Boush-and the send
ing Of Rear Admiral Fletcher, in whom
the President has great confidence, TO
Tuxpam from Vera Cruz, which is also
a critical centre, is regarded as sig
nifcant.
No news has reached the State De-
partment of the arrival in Mexican
waters Of the two British ships which
were sent from the Barbados last
week. although there is no doubt that
they must have arrived by this time.
One Of those warships is destined FOR
Tampico, but if the situation at Tux
pam grows more serious it is probable
that that ship will join the American
fiotilla there.
Wilson to Tell Congress.
President Wilson will discuss the
Mexican situation when he addresses
Congress at the opening of the regular
session next week He will not how
ever. go into details, nor will he out
line his policy. He will devote himself
largely to what has happened in Mex
ipfc al
ready done and its reasons for so do
ing. and keep OH the future. He will
carefully avoid, il IS stated, saying any
thing that will bring Congress into the
imbroglio.
To callers with whom he discussed
the Mexican situation to-day the Presi-
dent dwet on the reports from Mexico
City of statements appearing in news
papers the that the United States
was on the verge of recedlng from It's
position. and, after ALL recognizing
Huerta. The President cited the cir
cumstancps as evidence OF the control
the Mexican government is exercising
in the Mexican capital, and 1t was evil
dent that he considered the publica-
ton of such misleading reports mat
ter of importance.
1t was said at the White House that
the President considered the attitude
| of foreign governments toward Amer
! jcas policy as quite satisfactory

fine EXHIBIT
By Augusta Anti-1ubercu-
|oSiS League,
4 f.
1pens,l Monday.y City Hall,
For Three Days.
Valuable, Instructive Talks Given
Ia Connection with the Exhibition.

The tuberculosis exhibit held in
City hall, Monday afternoon, under
the auspices of the Augusta Auti-Tu-
berculoss League, was viewed by
many people, and proved TO be of
great interest DR.. A. A. Downes, the
secretary Of the State association, and
A. j. Torsleff, State lecturer on the
subject of tuberculosis, We're in the
exhibit rooms, and fully explained the
significance of the exhibits to all
corners, leaving no points in doubt
about the tubereular situation in
Maine, the United States, and the en-
tire civilized world.
The room was packed during a por-
ton of the afternoon, with school
children, coming from practically ev-
cry school in the city. DR.. Downes
paid special attention to these stu
dents, and explained the subject so
that even the younger ones could un-
derstand.
The mechanical exhibits drew the
close attention of all visitors. One
of them in particular, red light GO
ing out every 80 seconds to call atten-
ton to the fact that there is a death
from tuberculosis in the civilized
world every 80 seconds, gave the i'm
preston of ghastliness; yet it stated
the facts as clearly and concisely as
possible.
Pictures all around the room, showed
patients being treated for this deadly
disease, and gave evidence that if TAX
en- in time practically every case can
be cured. The exhibit warned all
against the use of patent medicines to
cure tuberculosis. The only cure lies
in rest, fresh air and good food.
The exhibit, free to all, is the most
up-to-date affair of its kind in the
country. and is we'll worth seeing,
1t will be continued Tuesday, Wednes-
day, and Thursday of this week from
, until 6 in the afternoon, and from
I until 8 in the evening.

Notices We're sent out, Monday. from
the office of the city clerk, announcing
the near approach of the last day OF
grace for all unlicensed dogs in the
city. According to the records of the
clerk there are yet 175 dogs within the
city limits which are not licensed, and
the lives of which, according to the
dog law, are forfeit and have been for
some time. Those who have charge
of the enforcement of this law have
been very lenient and some of them,
being dog owners themselves, realize
the sorrow which sometimes follows
the death of the family dog, even
though he may be a dog of low degree
slnd of the breed known as eyaller,"
but it is the determination of the city
officials that the law be enforced and
the notice which has just been sent
out to the owners of the la CANNES
above precedes the final
roundup.

Municipal Court =,
Has Busy Session.

The weeks business in municipal
court circles starte6a ~ we'll, M4hday, |
with a total of seven casesA>- II dis |
posal of which required not onlA the |
morning hours but also portion of
the afternoon. None of the cases n ere |
of very important nature, except, |
perhaps, to some of the parties dirat- |
~ interested, and the country treasury |
was not greatly enriched by the
amount of fines paid in, but each case
took time, and minutes run rapidly
into hours.
The first case called was that Of
three Youngsters, who had been takerhI
from Train %, Saturday evening, on
arriving in Augusta, on the way to
Bangor for evading carfare. The boys
gave their names as Harry Holmes,
Fred c. smith and William Heale, and
all claimed to belong in PASSPORT. They
had been seeing a bit of the world on
their own account, and by a, strange
coincidence had met, last week, in an
employment agency in Boston, each
looking for work. Their cash capital
was reduced to minimum, although
Holmes allowed that he had blown in
| $500 in New York in two days, and as
| their unanimous desire was to work
| their way back to PASSPORT, the court
gave them chance.
| Louis Loupier figured as the respond
ent in the second case called, in am
swer to charge of assault and bat
terry preferred against him by Charles
| Grier, which assault was alleged to
have been committed on Mill street,
l Co 1aVr ;uht al,
that the respondent pointed a shot
gun at the complainant. Loupier plead
ed not guilty. He admitted that he
was intoxicated at the time of the al
legged assault, and that he pointed a
| gun at Grier, in fun, but said that the
| gun was not loaded. The court found
Loupier guilty, and ordered him to pay
the costs, $2.62. He was also placed on
probation for six months
The next case was that of Guy
| Buber, who had been arrested for an
assault, Sunday, on Georgia Nickless.
The respondent entered a h of not
guilty, but admitted that he N1Rck the
complainant several times. The court
found him guilty and imposed a SEN
| tence of So and costs, or 80 days in jail
Frank S. James was in court to an
swer to a charge of drunkenness and
abuse preferred against him by his
wife. Deeora James. The respondent
pleaded not guilty, but the court
found him guilty and imposed a fine
of $40 and costs. He was also required
| to give a bond of $500 to keep the
peace for six months.
The closing case in the list came in
the afternoon, and grew out of a visit
by John Landry of South Gardiner,
Monday noon, to the store of Fred
DUDE and Levi Doiron, on upper Wa
ter street. According to the story as
told in court, Landry went into the
store where Mr.. Doiron was arrang-
ing some cigars in a case, and took
a handful of them, placing them in his
pocket, without paying for them The
compliments also alleged that he call
ed names, and only returned the cigars
when thfeatenedawith arrest. Landry
tried to explain to the court that it
WAS all a joke. but the evidence was
against him and he was given a SEN
tsnce of 1852 or 10 days in Jail.

Where stagnant pools their greenisl

And unseen bullfrogs utter tuneless

Meath bridges where the swallow hide.
Past farm lands where idle grazing

In some drowsy, shady nook, there where
