City of Mexico, Feb. 26.-Emilio Ma
dero, a brother of the late president,
has been shot and killed near Monte
rey, according to reliable information
received here.
With an escort of thirty-fiye men
Madero, it is said, was attempting to
join the rebels holding Nueyo Laredo
when he was overtaken by troops sent
by General Treyino. The reports do
not indicate whether Madero was
killed in action or was executed.
The shooting took place between
Villaldama and Bustamente.
AS the rebel leader in the Laredo
district, Geronimo Villareal, is parti-
san of General Treyino, the Govern
ment expects that the trouble in that
vicinity will be adjusted soon.
Emilio Madero, in conjunction with
his brother, Raoul Madero, few days
ago began a counter revolution at San
Pedro, in the State of Coahuila, in
the expectation of reuniting the rebels
about Saltillo with those in the La
redo district.

Washington, Feb. 26.-Today's addi
tional information on the Wilson Cab
met makes it seem certain the follow
ing have been selected: Secretary of
State, William ]. Bryan of Nebraska;
Secretary of the Treasury, William
g. McAdoo of New York; Secretary
of the Navy, Josephus Daniels of
Virginia; Postmaster General, Albert
IS. Burleson of Texas.
There is good ground for believing
that Chancellor E. R. Walker of New
Jersey has not been selected for At.
torney General. Previous reports gave
him this place.
1t is definitely known Congressman
Henry of Texas and Representative
A. Mitchell Palmer declined Cabinet
positions. Mr.. Palmer was offered the
portfolio of Secretary of War. He de-
clined because his ancestors were
Quakers.
Mayor Newton d. Baker of Cleve-
land, Ohio, was offered a Cabinet po-
sition. He refused because he wishes
to complete his Cleveland civic work.
Former Solicitor General Frederick
B. Lehman, who it is said will be
most likely named for Attorney Gen.
eral, declared positively that Albert
S. Burleson of Texas is the only Con-
gresham to get Cabinet position.

Replete with a plentitude of fun and high class entertainment the big pre-Christmas program which opened yesterday at the big Poli theatre in Main street was of the big time cali bre throughout, and delighted big crowd of first nighters last night. There is a pleasing variation in the entire bill from the usual vaudeville program which kept the crowds key ed up to the highest pitch of ene thusiasm. The big scream of the pro- gram last night was Evers, Wisdom & Co.,, a trio of the most famed vaude- vile performers. There is lively com edy action every minute. Because Of illness Ray Dooley & Go. scheduled to appear the first three days of the week could not appear, but the work of the Appo1lo Trio appeared instead, scoring g one of the biggest success of the pro- gram. Hallen & Burt, a duo of the classiest performers that ever appear ed on the boards, present a com edy singing, dancing and talking act that is filled with comedy interspersed with a riot of costume and beauty. Mer- lin, Americas greatest card manipu- lator, brought great applause with his wonderful ccomplishments Grant Gardner, a famed black faced com edian, hands out laugh every second. He is master of the piano, cornet and bells and plays selections between jokes. Comedy juggling that furnish es no end of fun is performed by Dave Wellington, one of the best known in the profession. He has comedy make up and a comedy act that is exceptionally clever.

LYRIC

''The Sheriff and the Rust1er,'' with Tom Mix, the worlds most daring cowboy, in a series of astounding feats of death efying skill, is the big attraction at the Lyric Theatre nati- nee and evening today. This ph oto drama is without doubt the most spec tacu1a.r of it's kind ever produced and througho out the entire three reels is a succession of sensations and thrills. One of the most sensational and dar- ing feats in this remarkable picture is the struggle between the sheriff and the rust1er the top of a rapidly moving freight train. During the struggle, when the train is travelling at a high speed the two roll from the train to 8 river seventy feet below. A very interesting exhibition of skill is shown by Tom Mix when wrestling with a, wild bull.
 A beautiful Kinemaco1or produc- ton Mission Bells,'' the Monday is- sue of the Pathe Weekly and three other photo plays both dramatic and comicaI are included on the program with "The Sheriff and the Rustler."

THE PLAZA

As was predicted, the Reese Broth CTS Africanders, who are holding the headline card at the Plaza Theatre the first half of this week, we're one big hit from the start to the finish, and the exceedingly large audiences at all
 three shows yesterday could not re- frain from tapping their feet to the tune of the popular old southern meIo- dies. It was a treat that was thor ough1y relished and the effects were so realistic that the auditors felt themselves transp1anted from the theatre right into the midst of the cotton lands, laughing at the funny pranks played by the young "darkies'' on their elders and listening to the old strains that can never altogeth e be forgotten.

The White Ape.

TENDERLY Kala nursed her lit-

 why it did not gain strength
 and agility as did the little apes of other mothers. It was nearly a year from sthe time the little fellow came into her possession before he would walk alone, and as for clfmbing-my, but how stupid he wasl
 Kala sometimes talked with the older females about her young hopeful, but none of them could understand how a child could be so slow and backward in learning to care for itself. Why, it could not even find food alone, and more than twelve moons had passed since Kala had come upon it.
 Had they known that the child had seen thirteen moons before it had come into Kala's possession they would ha ve considered it's case as absolutely hope less.
 Tublat, Kala's husband, was sorely vexed and but for the females careful watching would have put the child out of the way.
 He will never be a great ape" he argued Always will you have to ~ary him and protect him. What good v<tl he be to the tribe? None. Only q burden.
