EVENING TIDE.

Unto You, Young Elan, We Write.
1t has been asserted that every
man can live within the limit of his
income; and of the average young
man, at least, it is doubtless true
At all events the necessaries of life
are very cheap and very small, in
deed, must be the wage that will
not permit young man to support
life soberly and decently. 1t is the
Injuries that come high, the unnec-
essary cigars, the indulgence in Hq-
uors, the questionable entertain
ments. the betting, the card playing,
trying to ape those in better cir
cumstances. These are the things
for which young men generally go
into debt for, not for the necessar-
les of life. For the "husks OF
swine'' verify, that mortgage them
selves, souls and bodies. For the
sake of gratifying his vanity of
dressing as well as others who have
more than double his means; Dy
wishing to appear what he calls as
up-to-date as his friends or boon
companions, many excuses of Esau,
whose necessity was at least real.
His wants are imaginary, and their
qualification only serves to create
an army of unlawful desires, which
drag him lower and lower into the
slough of debt, dependency and
degradation, until manhood, honor,
hope. enthusiasm, self respect-al all
that makes life dear-goes out in
darkness. "A contented mind is a
contented feast" but a feast that
can never be enjoyed by the victim
to debt,

girl forget to express gratitude for
the numberless little things the pa
tient mother does for her, 1t Is ta-
ken for granted that mother shall
neatly mend the ripped glove or
sew the missing button on the shoe,
or put the ruching in the neck OF
the daughters gown. The girl does
not say she is here to do these
things" but her actions speak loud
er than words. In the depths of her
heart, the most loyal mother must
sometimes miss and long for the
speech of affectionate thanks. Many
of the amenities of life become mat
tiers of habit. Would it not be well
for us in our homes to cultivate
the habit of saying, thank you.
Train up a child in the way he
should go, and when he Is old he
will not depart from it, This mot
to will hold good in most cases.
They will approach their mothers
and ask to do thus, which she will
forbid, they will insist on it, but
she will not consent, and eventual
ly they will resort to tears Tor rath-
er bawl) which they know full well
will gain the victory. Mother will
say, well, go and do it if nothing
else will satisfy you" Right here
you have given your child room to
doubt your veracity. We have seen
children of few summers stand
up and tell their mother they would
not do thing she has firmly COM
manded them to do. That is fear
full to think of, and more than like
ly that mother will drink the cup
or sorrow to the dregs, and that
child will bring her gray hairs with
sorrow to the grave.
Many college-bred girls never
teach. They go out in the world
and raise the average intelligence;
they elevate their own ~. aholds
and exert an influence in t. sphere
of the private citizen. The stand
ard is raised at home. and home is
the fountain head. Women who
marry after being literally educat-
ed make more satisfactory unions
than they otherwise would have
made.

1t is in the home with those we
love best we fail to say thank

speak the simple words when her
husband restores to her the hand
kerchief she has dropped or rises
and gives her the easy chair which
he has occupied until her entrance.

MEXICO IN NEEDOF
Aj|Az, SHE THINKS
Mrs. Alexander R. Shepherd
Says Former President Was
Only One Who Really Ruled.

That there has been just one man who
knew the needs Of turbulent Mexico
well enough to maintain peace and
order. and that one man, Porfirio Diaz.
was the statement this morning Of Mrs.
Alexander r. Shepherd, widow of the
governor of the District of Columbia.
MRS. shepherd and her family are in
terested In a number OF mining and
other enterprises in the state OF Chi
huahua.
Il have not been in Mexico for about
ten years. says Mrs. Shepherd this
morning: and really am not qualified to
discuss local conditions, but i do think
that Diaz was the man for the country
mo, l will not say that I think Dfaz
should be restored to the execiuvte Of
hce-that is a question for the men to
determine.
Really. we do not consider that our
property Is endangered by the troubles
down there. We feel that It WIN be
protected, no matter what may hap
pen. The present conditions, however,
are unspeakable- Our property lies IN
the western part of the state of Chi
huahua."

Mexico Ignores Charge
OF an American Plot

MEXICO CITY (via Galveston) Sept.
L-Fewer Americans left Mexico City
today than on any day since President
Wilson advised all to get out, and II
Is believed that the majority viii re-
main. unwilling to sacrifice their busi-
ness interests here unless the situation
takes a dangerous turn.
1t was believed today that the Mexi-
can government would pay no official
attention to the anonymous charges
that a group Of Americans plotted to
bring about Intervention. It has been
pretty well established that the writ
ten but unsigned, charges reached Cen
eral Huerta through other Americans.
L. r. Whitley. a mining man. who was
the close associate of Ambassador Hen
ry Lane Wilson, has been told that he
is no longer welcome at the embassy.
The drilling of soldiers In all the
states does not alarm those who under
stand the situation. Provisional Presi-
dent Huerta Is first and last soldier.
and ever since he assumed the reins OF
government he has been trying to inn
prove the army. He Is known to hold
the idea that his only hope Is TO rule
with an iron hand

OBITUARY NOTES.
MAJOR HENRY NJ. STARR.

Maj. Henry NJ. Starr, seventy-two
years old, a veteran of the civil war
and for fifty years a resident of the
District Of Columbia, died yesterday
afternoon at the Laurel, Nd. sanitari-
I'm, where he had been i'll for four
months.
Major Starr was a bachelor and lived
with his sister Mrs. s. A. Worthington,
at 2Ol5 Massachusetts, avenue north
west. who is now visiting In Europe.
He was born at Medina, n. Y, and
enlisted in the Union army there at
the outbreak of the war. Soon after
peace was declared he settled in Wash
ington and lived here till his death.
II is probable that his body will bt

til teh return Of Mrs. oWrthington.

ferred to followed sarcastic references
and each had a string to It," The
Mexican government would withdraw
its demand for an exchange Of ambas-
sadors, provided the United States rec
ognized the ad interim government in
Mexico; the attention of President VIII
son was called to the provision in the
Mexican constitution that a provisional
president could not be elected to sue
ceed himself, but there was no as
surance given that President Huerta
would not resign shortly before the
election In order TO be a candidate,
and acceptance Of the constitutional
provision would require this govern
ment to recognize Huerta as a legiti-
mate provisional president, bound by
the constitution.
Prepared for Demonstration.
The government in Mexico, on the
other hand, is far from passive, ac-
cording to press advices. Troops are
being raised, preparations are being
made for the patriotic demonstration
and parade in Mexico City September
16, and the government is taking every
advantage from the rising spirit OF
refusal of Huerta to knuckle down to
the demands of the United States.
1t may all be a bluff, just as the veil
ed threat that Lind would not be al
lowed to land in Mexico. and would be
persona nor grata," turned out to be a
blur. Bluff, according to posted Off
cials in Washington, lie an important
element in Latin-Americsn diplomacy.
1. is because of this that officials here
are hoping that Huerta will finally
come to time"
In the meantime, however, there n
another factor In the situation that NAV
serve to bring about precipitate action

factor Is the Americans in Mexico.
Thousands OF Americans have left the
country In response to President VIII
sons warning, but thousands still re.

years. taken into court for the first
time. II, as II approaches a building,

seems to frown on everything that ts

taken is III smelling and forbidding,

ing grim denial to freedom. then no
matter how sympathetic the judge, the
youthful defendant will be in a far
from proper frame Of mind to overcome
his wrong start.
But one of the worst things of all
about improper court facilities Is that
hardened offenders-thoSe who seem to
have some sort of bias streak in their
make-up-may come in contact with
very innocent children. Too often the
false bravado of the older boy or girl
arouses a spirit of admiration or hero
worship in the younger. while IL even a
slight acquaintance is formed between
the two It Is almost certain to grow and
bear evil fruit when the two meet on
the street or playground weeks or
months later.
These facts are not new. They are
automatic with everyone who has had
even a slight experience with Juvenile
court work. And II does seem to me
that Washington ought to have learned
them by this time, and. with the CO.
operation of Congress. ought to erect a
beautiful children's building that would
adequately house all those municipal
activities that pertain to children.

IT am interested. not only as the judge
of our Denver juvenile court, but also
as an American citizen who takes an
interest in our Capital City. And II
you will let me know when this matter
comes up before the proper committee
in Congress, I will make every effort
to appear before that committee and
add my humble efforts to induce them
to provide for building Of which We
may all be proud"

ConviCts Develop
Big Poultry Farm

Prisoners at the Federal senitentiary
at Atlanta, Ga, are developing what
will probably be one of the largest
poultry farms in the country. The es-
Establishment is conducted. by the pris-
oners for their own benefit. and more
than L2s7 fowls are within the in
closure.
These chickens range in size from Juicy
fryers TO some eighty-two tiny Rhode
Island Reds. fresh from the mediator
The big attraction is 40 duckIings Of
a fine breed.
The prison poultry plant was begun
May II, 1912. as means of furnishing
fresh eggs and chicken to the prisoners
II was suggested by the Department of
Justice, and is proving very successful
The work of Matching and caring for the
fowls is done by the prisoners them
selves, under the guidance of the
warden.

On Missing Prosperity

PUEBLO. Col, Sept. 1-Regret for
the sale for small sum of his ranch,
on which later a S3OOO00O oil strike was
made, is believed to have been the
cause Of the suicide of William CHS

football player at Haskell Institute He
had been visiting here. Yesterday he
received a letter from a relative, tell
ing him that his ranch at Tishirpingo,

the absence of more definite reasons
from Washington.
Some Americans Criticise President.
These Americans and those who have
already left are said to be incensed at
the policy adopted by President Wilson.
Their claims for damages must be taken
into consideration in any negotiations.
Those remaining. moreover, are riskins
their lives In the event of further
growth of anti-American feeling, and
harm to them may force the United
States to abandon It's policy Of non-in-
