him a visit and falls desperately in
love with Jennie. Such is her infatua-
tion for him, that he persuades her to

has received an invitation from an
aunt, missive that Albert has forged.
Local coloring, the atmosphere of the

acting of the players and the simple
story that always has universal ap-
peal, makes this picture pleasing of

ASKS TAFT TO
HOLD TROOPS

The following personal message
was sent yesterday by President Ma
dero to President Taft, making an APP
peal to the chief executive of this
country not to land troops on Mexican
soil for the purpose of interference. II
is not known that President Taft has
replied yet:
His Excelleney William Howard Taft,
President of the United States.
/ have been informed that the gov
eminent over which your eXcellency
presides with such dignity, has ordered
to be sent to the ports of Mexico, war
vessels with troops ~ disembark and
come to this capital to give guarantees
of safety to Americans. Undoubtedly
the information which you have re-
ceiyed and which led you to take this
action is inexact and exaggerated, for
the lives of Americans in the capital
are at present in, no danger, If they
abandon the zone of fire and concen-
trate in certain parts of the city or its
suburbs, where tranquility Is absolute
and where the government can give all
classes guarantees.
If Americans residing here will do
that, following the precedent establish
ed by your own orders previously is
sued (note, this refers to Tafts proc
lamation last spring, advising all
Americans to leave danger points in
the republic), all danger to the lives of
Americans and other foreigners will
be obyiated,
Regarding what material dangers
may be suffered by foreigners, this
government is ready to accept all re-
sponsibility according to international
law Accordingly, ask your excel
leney to order your men-of-war not to
disembark troops in Mexico as this
act will cause a conflagration = ter
rible consequences of more serious ex-
tent than those we have TO contend
with at present. assure your excel
lency that this government is taking

least harm possible to the lives and
property of foreigners in the capital
and | have hopes that everything will
be peacefully arranged I'M a very short
time.
It is true that my country at this
moment is passing through terrible
crisis; and the Decentralization of
American troops would only increase
the dangers of the situation and be a
very lamentable error 1t would do
great harm to a nation which has al
ways been the loyal friend of the
United States as well as contributing
to the danger of interfering with the
establishing of true democratic gov
eminent here similar to that of the
great American nation.
