COLLAPSE OF GOULD'S
NEW YORK SUBWAY COUP

New York, March 13.-The famous
fight which Wall street has been eX-
pecting between the interests of
George Gould on one side and John d.
Rockefeller on the other side, will in
all probability not take place. There
is a reason. The question over which
the contest hung was the contracts
for New York's new subways. These
are due to be signed today by the
board of estimate, after which the
matter will be closed as far as the
public's fights against them are con.
cerned. These fights have been direct
ed from several quarters. Mr.. Gould,
through his holdings of Manhattan
Railway stock, had the power to block
the contracts. 1t is said however, that
the Rockefeller interests threatened a
combine with other big Wall street
interests which would have meant
financial disaster to the Gould inter
ests, extending even to the Missouri
Pacific Railroad holdings, if necessary.
Mr.. Gould is at present on trip to
Panama and none of the Rockefellers
or their representatives will discuss
the matter.

REVIEWS TREATY
WITH FRANCE

Washington, March 12.-The arbi-

States and France starts a new lease
today for period of five years, ac-
cording to articles signed last month
by Secretary Knox and Ambassador
Jusserand. The document is brief,
consisting of only three articles. The
first provides for the arbitration by
The Hague court of any differences of
a legal nature not affecting ''the vital
interests, the independence or the
honor of the two contracting States"
and which do not concern interests of
third parties.
The second prescribes the form of
special agreement covering the mat
ter to be arbitrated, which must be
approved by the Senate, while the
third limits the life of the treaty to
five years.

GERMANY WATCHING MEXICO

Berlin, March 13.-The German gov

ing considerable interest in the situa-

gard as at all settled. Daily reports
are being received here to the effect
that the Maderos are planning new
revolution for the republic and their
arrival in New York from Cuba this
week has been the subject of much
comment. The officials and the news
papers predict that in spite of the
temporary quiet, it will be only mat
ter of time when the United States
will be compelled to intervene in
Mexico.
The German interests in Mexico are
considerable and constantly increas-
ing. Within a few days formal de-
mand will be made by this Govern
ment for an accounting for damage
done to German property recently,

POINTED PARAGRAPHS.

Should an original idea strike some
men it would give them headache,
A lazy mans feet leave their i'm
print on the path of least resistance.
More investigation at the start will
mean less disappointment at the end.
You can live comfortably without
becoming extravagant. Extravaganza
is not comfort.
Don't worry about what the other
fellow is going to do. Let your SUI
perior activities worry him.
Looking for little faults in your
neighbors enables you to overlook a
lot of big ones in yourself.
Why does not a successful man al
ways give his friends the same brand
of advice that he uses in his own
business?
The man who tells the truth, the
whole truth, and nothing but the truth
at all times can never hope to be pop
ular in human society.

in going over the lesson-sermons, the al
most pathetic avidity with which the
teachings of Jesus as exemplfied by the
textbook, Science and Health with Key

SunstrOke Without Sun

Sunstroke is seldom fatal in this coun-
try but 1t may have very serious after
effects. 1t has been noticed in the army
and navy that officers who have once
had severe sunstroke are seldom quite
as efficient afterward. They are some
times inclined to deafness. often to ring
ing In the ears. and are always more
inclined to come on the sick list for
trifing causes, says Pearsons Weekly
Sun is not necessary to sunstroke, a
fact which explains why many doctors
prefer to call it heartstroke. You can get
sunstroke before hot fire and many
cases occur after the sun is set You are
most likely to get 1t IL doing hard physi-
cal work. Ship stokers are peculiable
to it. and 1t is the usual cause of the
suicides by drowning which occur SO fire.
quently among stolssvs at sea.
The chief tip about avoiding sunstroze
is to take things easy in hot weather,
particularly II you are run down physi-
cally, as sunstroke usually attacks peo-
pie who are out of sorts. Army sur
geons recommend keeping constantly
wetted cloths under the hat when the
temperature Is Obnormal, or cabbage
leaves.
Sunstroke usually comes gradually in
this country, the victim becoming more
and more languid before he collapses In
hotter countries it usually comes with the
suddenness Of a stroke of apoplexy.
The first thing to do with any one at
tackled by sunstroke is to lay them down
in dark room. Cold cloths should be ap-
piled to the head. If the pulse is very
feeble, stimulants are needed
A curious point about sunstroke that
medical science Is unable to explain is
that the sufferer always gives of Gu
rtous musty odor.
