SHOW RESENTMENT.

WASHINGTON. Aug. S.-An official
statement given out by the Mexican
embassy here this afternoon, said that
the Mexican government resents the
presence in Mexico of special ENJOYS
of the American government and that
the Mexican government has taken
the opportunity presented in the COM
ing of Mr.. Lind to exercise this re-
sentiment.
Mexico regards the character of the
investigation carried on by William
Bayard Hale, r. S. Delzalle and others
as extremely offensive and believes
that the unfriendly information that
they conveyed to Washington is re-
sponsible for the present attitude of
the American government

Crisis Feared.
(National News Association

WASHINGTON, Aug. S.-After a
conference with the president, Secre-
tary Bryan today announced that the
statement sent to the American en-
can Foreign office that special Repre-
sentative Linn would be persona non
grata to the Mexican government un-
less he brought the proper credentials
with him, had been received at the
State department today and that now
the president has it under considera-
tion.
At the request of the state depart
ment, the battleship Michigan was to-
| day ordered moved from Vera Cruz to
Ciudad Del Carmen, Mexico. It was
feared that the arrival of the battle
ship New Hampshire at Vera Cruz
today might give rise to report that
the United States was preparing for
active intervention and the battleship
Michigan therefore was moved further
down the coast to remain for further
orders.

Pending the arrival in Mexico -sf
John c.. Lind, this government will
take no action with respect to the
def issued by the Mexican foreign
office. threatening to deport Mr.. Lind
as an undesirable alien.
Secretary Bryan and other govern
ment officials say that the United
States will wait until it is seen whe-
ther the Mexican government intends
to carry out it's threat.
If Mr.. Lind makes good connections
he should arrive tomorrow in time for
a conference with Huerta tomorrow
afternoon
That diplomatic crisis is feared is
acknowledged in official circles here,
but hope is strong that peaceful So
luton ultimately will be brought
about. 1t is believed the Mexican
president will be forced to confer with
President Wilson's representative il
only to discover the nature of the
communication he bears. The con-
tents Of Mr.. Lind's message is un-
known here to anyone save the pres
ident and Secretary Bryan.

Opals and ~ Luck.

Many people regard the opal as an
omen of i'll luck. and the following
will show how this superstition arose.
Two or three centuries ago the stone
was very popular in Europe, and the
jewelers. of Italy were especially cum
ming in its setting. At the height OF
its popularity came the plague which
wrought great havoc in Venice. 1t was
noticed by some observant persons in
that city that when a victim was on
the point of death his opal, If he wore
one, frightened, while after death 1t
became dull. The reason of this was
the heightened fever made the stone
become hot, and consequently very
brilliant, while after death the chill
and damp of the body duled it. 1t was
however declared by many that 1t
brought death and misfortune to their
door, and as this superstition spread
the sale Of opals decreased, and to this
day people believe that the beautiful
stone brings i'll luck.

These shops are fourteen to sixteen
feet wide on the street, and the room

feet back from the front a counter
runs, behind which there is shelving.
The storerooms are not deeper because
of the peculiar arrangement of Chinese

There is big story connected with

The Houston Post, in discussing the
disgrace of a depleted treasury in a
rich State like Texas, says: "As mat
tiers now stand, the poorest citizen of
the State is a more dependable debtor
than our State" The post says, and
wisely too, that our treasury should
be rehabilitated so that all the known
expenses of the State government
could be met promptly, as we'll as any
emergency expense that might arise.

There they were, thousand the
choicest young men of Texas ri pared
to carve out the destinies of the EN-
pire State. No task too difficult, no
road too rough. 1t was a sight to
command the attention Of the world.
There were many Austin people there.
Varsity had never drawn the heart
of the people like this. 1t was prize
to be coveted. Cost to State was not
to be considered. No difference how
many widows sons might be deprived
Of the privileges of the school, moth

sire of Austin to secure this great
prize.
The Jim Hogg fund, avowedly for
higher education, was pushed forward
and plans were laid ~ secure legisla-
ton for consolidation. The plans were
quietly laid and held for the right
time to come. The Austin Statesman
was the headquarters Of the plotters,
and the plan would have carried had
you not forestalled it by bringing the
| Legislature here to see this great
plant and its workings. They endeav-
ored to block that plan, but Wilbur
Davis had laid his plans too well be-
fore they became aware Of it, and as.
soon as the Legislature had decided
to come the word went around that

amendment, but in their haste to cover
up the real intent OF the amendment
they have bungled it until Its own au-
thor could not recognize it, and ! have
talked with a number of Representa-
tives, every one of whom declared
they did not know just what the reso-
luton had in It and are against its
adoption. At Austin you often hear
this, IF the voter gets to understand
that amendment he will vote against
it." Now want to tell you that there
are about $4,000 people over Texas
who remember that remarkable scene
on the Dallas fair grounds and they
are not going to help tear up the insti-
tuition that made it possible but are
going to vote against the amendment
to Sections 40 and SO of Article 3 on
July 10 as sure as the day comes.

The Fort Worth Record says Resolu-
ton IS is for the welfare of both the
State University and the A. and M.
College. The Eagle would like for the
Record to explain how the resolution
will benefit A. and NJ. The resolution
says bonds may be issued to purchase
additional ground and erect needed
buildings FOR the University of Texas,
INCLUDING medical department, an
agricultural and mechanical college,
etc. It does not say THE A. and NJ.
College at College. Station, but says
buildings needed for the University of
Texas, and INCLUDED in these build
ings is an A. and NJ. College. That is
what it says, and if the Record can
show how it refers to the A. and M.
College at College Station, all Texas
will appreciate it.

The Galveston News in its reply to
Colonel Miner made the bare asser'
ton that Resolution IS would benefit
the A. and NJ. College, but failed to
show just how. The only thing it said
was that it was preposterous for any
one to think the Legislature would
not see to it that A. and NJ. got it's
share of the bond money. That, how
ever, is all uncertainty. Uncertain as
to what the Legislature would do, and
uncertain as to what would be its fair
proportion. All that section Of the
amendment referring to the schools
is a maize of uncertainty. Then would
it not be better to vote down the
amendment and let the next Legisla-
