An Aneedote Of Dumas.

Speaking of Alexandra Dumas, a
writer says that his chief character
istic was his utter disregard of
money. He made millions, but new
er had a franc at his command.
"For example," said he, upon one
occasion Dumas had invited com
pany to dinner and, finding that he
did not stand possessed of a single
cent, drove to a friends and asked
him to lend him 2 louis. This his
friend readily did and as Dumas
was taking his leave suggested, as
he had just been getting some very
fine pickles, he would be glad to
give him a jar to add to his dinner.
The servant was sent for the
pickles, and when he put the jar in
the carriage Dumas, having no 9TH
er change about him, dropped the
2 louis in the mans hand"

That's a party dress. People dress

WILSON'S ULTIMATUM CALLS
FOR HUERTA'S RESIGNkTlCj

City of Mexico, Nov. 5.-PresideL
Huerta has been told he must resiG
the presidency of Mexico without los
of time. and ne must not leave as his
successor Gen. Aureliano Banquet,
his minister of war, or any other
member of his official family or of his
unofficial coterie whom he might be
expected to control
This ultimatum from Washington
was conveyed to President Huerta
through his private secretary, Senior
Rabago, by Nelson 'Shaughnessy,
the American charge d'affaires, act
ing under instructions from the state
department.
President Huerta has returned nc
answer, and, as far as could be learn
ed, had guarded its contents from
almost all of his official and intimate
counselors.
Those who learned of the Washing,
ton note regard Gen. Huerta's position
as one in which he will be forced to
give one of two answers-refusa'
point blank to comply with the de
mand, possibly going so far as to hand
the diplomatic representative his
passports, or the elimination of him.
self officially.
Those most intimate with the presl.
dent insist that the latter course will
not be taken for many reasons, chief
among which is that such action
would be tantamount to submission
to the rebels Official Mexico is no
longer in doubt that the Washington
administration favors the rebel
cause, and is convinced that this is
the means adopted by President viii
sor and Secretary Bryan to assist
Carranza to win.
Gen. Huerta summoned to the M
tional palace the diplomatic corps, but
for what purpose has not been re,
vealed.
Three of the ministers, those o:
Germany, Norway and Russia were
absent. They have been in Vera Cruz,
where they were in conference with
President Wilson's representative,
John Lind, who is understood to be
fully conversant with the latest rep.

brother "She was nothing but a

Indeed, she wasn't" said Miss

Wilson let the Mexican situation SIM

TARGET PRACTICE ONE
 DAY COST $6,ooo More Target Practice Tuesday Than or Any Day in Artillery History.

At Fort Wright Tuesday more tar get practice was held than in any one coast artillery defense in a sin gle day in the history of the service. What are termed eight practices were held. Four companies participated twice in the firing of all the guns at the fort The Second company made a remarkable record. Shots were di- rected at two perambulating targets over four miles away. The leading target is of pyramid shape, 12 feet by F. and the rear target is 24 feet by 10. They are lowed at the rate of seven miles an hour.
 At the first shot the Second com pany gunners destroyed the leading target. At the fourth shot the rear target was blown to pieces. What would have been the result to the bat tleship of an enemy may readily be imagined.
 Mortar firing was started Tuesday evening but after three shots. a thick fog set in, rendering the targets in visible and putting an end to the firing for the night
 Tuesdays practice cost in the vicin- ity of $6,0O0 for ammunition
 Friday and Saturday six visiting companies from New York and Nar- ragansett will arrive at the fort for their annual practice.
