disappeared and there is no evidence
Of liquor traffic.
In each instance the police officers
could not do otherwise but report to

here will be several hearings, as only

VILLA NOW
NEW MENACE
TO MEXICANS
CONTINUED From FIrsl Pace

gercy, because OF the Intervention
talk that has incensed the Huerta
government.
A year ago. In the days before the
"Decenia Tragica" as the Mexicans
call the ten days reign of terror. when
the streets of Mexico City ran with
blood, hundreds OF bodies were burn
ed on the stone pnvements and Presi-
dent Madero and Vice-Presldent
Suarez we're killed, the Americans
had a strong defense committee. t y
had rifles. ammunition, Red Cross
department and houses near the em-
bassy stocked with vast supplies OF
food They we're prepared TO with
stand long siege in the event Of mob
violence.
Now, the Americans are silent.
While the Intervention talk il going
the rounds, any open act By the
Americans, indicating that they were
collecting arms. might be construed
BY Huertas government as against
the government itself.
In such a case said a leader in
the American colony today, "the gov
eminent might order all Americans to
give up their arms and then we would
be left without any protection. II
would be folly for the Americans to
try to protect themselves against
Mexican troops, but we could With
stand mob attacks a long time"
The English German and French
committees hold regular meetings.
They have selected a spot in the city
for concentration and arrangements
are complete by which foreigners
could be transported by automobiles
TO the point Of concentration at
moments notice in the event Of trou-
bic. The Germans have even adyer-
tised for bids for fifty horses, fifty
beeves and a supply OF fodder. Most
OF the Germans have been IN the
regular army at home and boast that
they would put a regiment of trained
soldiers in service here The plans
Of the foreigners interlock. In
crisis, they could muster about 2000
men, most of whom have seen army
and frontier service.

HAPPY WORKERS
RECEIVE SANTA
AHEAD OF TIME

OF especial interest and enjoyment
was the Christmas meeting of the
Happy Workers Home and Foreign
Missionary Society OF West Presbyter-
ian Church on Saturday afternoon. At
the close of the meeting the children
were visited by Santa Claus and his
companion, Jack Frost, who not only
brought Christmas sweeties to the Hap
py Workers but rs a fine Christmas sur
prise brought with them Mrs. Alexander
Alison, Jr., and her little twin girls,
Adah and Elizabeth, wife and daugh-
ters Of the former pastor. The vsi-
tors were invited TO the platform and
escorted there by Miss Alice H. Stop
pard, where Miss Grace Baird, the prc5i-
dent held up little dab and Elizabeth
in turn while the Happy Workers stood
and gave them rousing welcome.
After the meeting Mrs. Alison held an
informal reception and was warmly
greeted by the children and the adult
y sitors, there being an unusually large
number OF the latter present.
Brief addresses were made by the
Rev. u. Franklin Smiley, who dwell;
upon the beautiful and unselfsh Christ
mas spirit and emphasized the blessing
Of giving rather than receiving, and
Miss Baird, who also talked of the
happy Christmas time and reminded the
children Of the mite boxes which arc
to be brought in in February.

$500, and the refresnment fund by
S3.55 when the two offerings had been
taken up, after which Mildred Denny
led the beautiful offering exercise OF
thankfulness.

ing snow. Mrs Alison was the pleas
ed recipient of one of the dainty
booklets.
The choir OF 16 girls opened the
meeting with the hymn "Sing Out the
Gladstone Carols.p They also sang
in parts the hymn, while Shepherds
Watched Their Flocks by might.
This was particularly beautiful.
Myrtle Brown conducted the devo-
tional service and offered a prayer
for Alice Lyman, a member OF the
little band who has been very i'll.
"Tony's Christmas" a real Christ
mas story. composed by Theodore
Triggs. was read by him. to the keen
delight OF the children. The violin
and piano duet by Gertrude Pyle and
Marguerite Clymer was a pleasing
number, as was the Christmas recita-
tion by Madeline Reid, and Helen Lar
ferty's solo, "The Gingerbread Mani p
the chorus sung with choir accom-
panying. Edward Stauffer. dressed as
Jack Frost, sang a merry, chilly Jack
Frost song and the choir joined In
the chorus.
Mary Evans, the chairman OF the
Lookout Committee. reported fifteen
new members since the November
meeting. After the meeting there was
jingle OF bells and IN came old
Santa riding In a little cart, drawn by
his faithful Jack Frost. Was the cart
empty? No indeed, but filled to the
