OVERNIGHT
FEDERAL
WIRELESS
To the Advertiser

City OF Mexico today. General Huer-
Ia in the National Palace, and Gen
eral DiaZ, are heading the combined
rebel and federal armies. The city
is well policed and the censorship on
news has been lifted. Rollicking
crowds of merrymakers, jubilant over
the restoration of peace, today swarm
the principal streets, awaiting to
acclaim General DiaZ as president.
DiaZ is expected to be named pro-
visional president before tomorrow.
Quick action to relieve Huerta as
temporary head of the government is
necessary, because of his unpopulari
ty with Generals orozco, Eallazar and
Gomez, all noted revolutionary lead
ers, with large followings.
American Ambassador Wilson was
Immediately notified of the change of
government. Wilson summoned all
foreign ministers to the American
embassy and explained the situation.
Less than thirty minutes later
general order to cease firing was
sounded and the ten days battle had
ended.
Anti-American sentiment has disap-
peared. Diaz and Huerta met at the
embassy and pledged themselves to
cooperate in reconstructive plans.
The crowd there cheered Ambassa-
dor Wilson and the American flag.
Francisco Madero. and his brother
Gustavo were sent this morning as
prisoners to the arsenal. Soon after
their arrival there Gustayo Madero
was subjected to the notorious "fugi-
tive law by which he was freed by
running under the rifle fire of his
guards He fell dead under their bull
lets.
Had Francis Madero succeeded in
defeating Diaz there seems little
doubt that bloody reprisals would
have been made.
Those who should die" is the cap
ton of an official Maderista document
found last night. Ine list included
Francisco De La Barra, Jesus Flores
Magona, Manuel Calero, Alberto Gar
cia Grandados and DR.. Vasquez Co
meZ.
For some days De La Barra believed
he was in danger of assassination
and hid in the British legation.
The biggest swimming meet ever
held on the Pacific Coast is being
planned for July at the Sutro Baths.
An invitation has been extended to
Duke Kahananoku, the Honolulu
champion.
Bright and early this morning the
followers of General" Rosalie Jones.
now at Wilmington, Delaware, in the
march to Washington, were up and
doing. While there was to be. no con-
tinuation of the hike" there was
plenty of work on hand.
Tonight, at theater between the.
vaudeville acts, General Jones and
her colleagues made addresses in be-
half of the cause.
Roumanias latest proposal is that
Bulgaria should cede to her the Black
Sea coast as far as Cape Kali Akra,
as well as the town of Baltchik, and
in this case Roumania would forego
her demand for the Bulgarian town OF
Silistria, which the Bulgarians reso-
lutely refuse to give up.
| Bulgaria objects to the scheme, for
she declares the Notifications of Cape
Kali Akra would menace the Bull
garian port of Varna, but the Powers
anticipate that settlement will be
brought nearer by the latest de
velopments. ...=....: 49,. :..#~

IMPORTANCE. OF
BREED OF SHEEP
Feeder Cannot Afford to Over
look Importance of Breeding
in His Business.

The man who raises sheep for the
wool and mutton market is generally
looked upon more as a feeder than
as a breeder, especially in compari-
son with the man who raises regis
tered sheep for the breeding market.
However, the feeder cannot afford to
overlook the Importance of attention
to breeding in his business. If he
raises his own feeding stock he knows
that the quality of his ewes and the
kind Of sire he uses are important fac
tors in determining final profits. In
fact, the production Of highly profit
able eve stock calls for almost as
much breeding skill as the produc-
ton of sheep true to the final point
of type. The eve flock which makes
returns in mutton and wool alone will
show characteristics as difficult to
produce and hold as those OF any
breed Such sheep must be vigorous
and thrifty, they must be good milk
ers, able to resist common diseases,
and must produce all the wool posi-
BILE and still retain good mutton form.
Grade sheep carefully selected and
bred have value over common sheep
just as pure bred sheep do.

HAS A PETRIFIED WATERFALL
One of the Natural Wonders of the
World That Is Located in
Country of Algeria.

With all the beauty of cataract Of
living water, there is in Algeria a re-
markable petrified waterfall which re-
Gently has been engaging the atten-
ton Of scientists. This is the Ham
mam-M eskhutin, which means 1.-THE
bath of the damned" and is located 62
miles from Constantine. This solicited
cascade is the production of calcare-
GUS deposits from sulphurous and fer
ruginous mineral springs, issuing
from the depths of the earth at tenn
perature of 95 degrees centigrade.
THE bath of the damned" even
from a near viewpoint, looks for all
the world like a great wall of water
dashing into a swirling pool at its
foot, yet-.its cleaning, graceful curves
and the apparently swirling eddies at
it's base are as fixed and immovable as
if carved from the face of a granite
cliff.
Many centuries have, of course,
gone to the making of the deposits,
and the springs were well known to
the ancient Romans The name Ham
mann Meskhutin was given to the stone
cataract in an allusion to a legend
that the waterfall was petrified by
Allah, Furnishing the impiety of un-
believers by turning all the members
of the tribe into stone. At night, so
the story runs, it's stone jewellers of
the remote ages are freed from their
strange letters, come to life and re-
sumo their normal shapes.
