An 1S-year-old boy is being sought
by the. police in connection with the
murder of the Holstein lad. This boy
is said by the police to have bound
and tortured young Holstein in sim
liar manner three years ago. He was
arrested and vowed vengeance on
Bonnie.
There are numerous Clews to sub
stapttate the belief that the murder
was committed by degenerate, who
may be responsible for other crimes.
He may have been rich.
A silk-lned brown Norfolk jacket
Of fine texture was found near the
body. 1t was evidently discarded by
the murderer.
A heel Of a mans shoe found near
the body bears the name of Hanan &
Son, makers of expensive shoes.
The bullet with which the boy was
killed was silver-tipped. These three
circumstances, say the police, prove
the crime was no ordinary murder.
COrOner's Physician Springer be-
heves that murder was committed in
some place other than where the
body was found, as was the case in
the Staying of James AcqUes, whose
murderers are still at large. The bull
let had torn a large hole in the top
of the boys head, but there was no
blood surrounding the spot. Accord
ing to the physician the wound would
have bled freely.
Capt Halpin of the detective
bureau enlisted the aid of scores of
newsboys, who were acquainted with
the Holstein lad. Bennie did not sell
papers, but he frequented the news
paper alleys, and was known to a ma
jority Of the newsboys.

MEXICAN SITUATION MAY BE
SETTLEDW WITHOUT WILSON
Washington, July 29.-President
Wilson's Mexican policy will not be
made public for some time.
The chief reason for this is that the
organized efforts of leading Mexican
citizens to end the unrest in that
country is likely to be successful.
The economic pressure in Mexico is
so terrific that it is likely soon to
force an end to internal warfare. The
national industries are standing still.
Exchange is at prOhibitive rates. Mer-
chants are bankrupt The great
French fnanciers, masters of the
world, are demanding reforms. They
can force Huerta to make such con-
cessiOns that all revolutionary move
ments will fall of their own weight.
Huerta can restore order only by
going into permanent retirement and
seeing that one of Mexico's big men,
one of proven executive ability, is
named as his successor.
How long President Wilson will
wait to allow these things to bring
about action is not known.
Ambassador Wilson has been asked
to hold himself in readiness for i'm
mediate call, but meanwhile to take a
rest the people of America badly need
from his ambassadoTing

A Hero Defined.

According to the standards Of the
Carnegie commission. hero Is one
who actually jeopardizes his life to
save another and who does 1t regard
less Of the consequences to himself.
Many rescues are made that involve
little danger to the rescuer. Such a
rescuer in the eyes of the commission
is not hero. Some men attempt res
cues in the face Of what appears to be
certain death. Such men are heroes.
But to be hero a man must risk his
life voluntarily. professional heroes
are barred from recognition. If man
does something heroic in the course of
his duty he is not, according to the
Carrp%ie standard. hero at all. Thus
policemen. fremen, life guards and
others who are employed to safeguard
life are never heroes II they save life
when pursuing their regular vocation.
but If one of them saves n life ION the
side" as it were. when it is not in the
line of his duty. he may or may not he
q hero.
For instance, fireman who rescues
n person from n burning building is
never a hero. no matter how brave he
may have been. He has merely done
his duty. But fireman who plunges
overheard and saves a drowning per
son may or may not be hero. 1t de
ponds upon the degree Of danger ell
countered and the amount Of risk I'm
Cured And it is to determine these
fine points that the hero fund com
mission maintains its staff of hero
hunters.

Notices Pour In.

Notices of heroic deeds pour in t.
the commission by the thousand. Some
times disinterested spectators who wit
ness a brave deed write about it, more
frequently friends of the hero send in
the news. and sometimes. alas. the
hero himself forwards information of
his prowess. Newspaper editors. school
teachers and clergymen are among the
most frequent of the commissions in
formants. Seldom indeed does any
piece Of bravery go unreported.
For news of such items the commits
sion depends upon the services Of Il
newspaper clipping bureau, so that ii
is q rare occurrence when the com.
mission fails to learn Of daring deed
Two classes OF recommendation are
always looked upon with suspicion
first, recommendation accompanied by
affidavits. which indicate that the
would be hero or his friends are try
ing to bolster up aeweak case, and.
second. cases reported by clergymen.
because clergymen are given to over
estimating courageous acts.
To every person who reports case
the commission sends blank to be
filed out and returned. This blank
asks for minute details. names of wit.
nesses. etc. Often these blanks are
not returned. and thus many undeserv-
ing cases are at once eliminated. In
every case In which the blanks are
returned properly filed out the matter
Is followed up. Often many letters
are written to make sure that the case
is Of sufficient Importance to warrant
detailing an investigator to it. When
the clerical force at the Pittsburgh Of
fee has thus sifted the claims as far
as possible the documents I'm the case
are turned over to the investigators
