Ratified TIE BANDIT.
Curious Experience With a Band of
Mexican Cutthroats.

Everybody I'm Mexico goes about arm
ed. Even the passenger trains on most
Of the railroads are guarded by detach-
ments OF soldiers Who ride in special
cars, while on every station platform
are seen rural guards armed with cara
bines ready for an emergency. For
eigners have to adapt themselves TO
the custom of going about armed or
else make themselves unfavorably con-
spicuous in the eyes OF the natives.
It was a novel experience, however, TO
see railroad surveyors, when occupied
with their peaceful work. armed 10 the
teeth with knives and revolvers. AS
matter OF fact, arms were rarely re-
quired In Mexico as a means OF de
fense. AS everywhere else, il is well
to remember, however, TO keep cool
and forget that you are armed in case
of a quarrel.
In this connection the principal locat
ing engineer Of the road had an expe-
rience at which he displayed some
nerve He had TO make reconnois-
sance Of n mountain range called the
cutthroats. He was warned to let the
district alone, but duty prevailed, and
he went When reaching a rancho
near the summit at sundown he and
his attendant were met by four men
whose law breaking preperSities re
quired no further Introduction than
their faces They took hold OF the
partys horses, told the engineer and
his attendant to dismount and made
no effort TO conceal the fact that they
were there for business.
The engineer complied smilingly, and.
going up to the leader. mystifed that
individual by asking him 20 step aside.
II am told that It is unsafe to travel
in these mountains" he whispered,

taking care of my property and allow

CUzC0 AND THE INCAS.
Ps~u's Ancient City Was on the Plan
Of the Roman Camp.

The ancient city of CuZcO, when first
viewed by European eyes, was, accord
ing 10 the best authOrities. a great and
700 souls. How old it waa at that time;
we have scant means of knowing.
GarcilasSo would have us believe that
there were only thirteen lncas in the;
royal family line from Nance CapacE
to IIuayna Capac. Mont ,sinoS. on the:
other hand. assures us that the Incas
ruled a thousand years. Which are We;
to believe? No written history of the;
race exists only the re cords of the;
juipus, those queer kuotted strings
which were the lncas' sole documents:
and for which no archaeologist has as:
yet discovered the key. the Rosetta
stone.
CuZco's original plan was. singularly
enough. that of the Roman camp, a;
quadrangle divided by two intersecting
streets into quarters. with gate on:
each face and towers at the angles.
The Incas. like the citizens OF the;
United ST 'es, had no more definite
name for heir country than Tavan-
tnsuya, th Empire Of the Four Prov.
inces. The four streets of the capt. .:
prolonged hv great roads. divided it:
into four main provinces, each under;
the dominion of its governor. Whe 4;
their people came to CuEco they fodg, 4:
In their own quarter. wsere they ad-:
hered to their national costuMes and
the customs Of their own province.
The city today retains the same
general plan, its two principal streets
being virtually the old main thorough
fares. It's two eastern quarters lie:
upon steep hillsides; the two western:
are in the valley. where runs little!

bridges.
The northeast quarter was the Pala-:
tine hill Of this South American Rome:

affectionate assistance in extricating
him from his emharraSsments.

fond Of the young officer. who often
made long visits at Mount Vernon.

DENcR.
Several articles have appeared in the
Evening Bulletin under the headings OF
reports Of meetings Of the school COM
mittee Of North Providence, which have
criticised the contractor Of the Greystone
school house because Of the delay in the
completion Of the building. Now the
facts in the case are these. Ist. The
contractor has been held up since March
18th, 1919, because the hardware to be
used in the building and which was pur-
chased by the school committee, has not
all been delivered. A part Of this hard
ware was delivered March 3rd, 1913, and
the balance has not, up TO this date, been
seen by the contractor. aud, The con-
tractor has had TO contend with an
arrangement by which he has been SUBJ
jected to taking orders from six different
men instead Of one man, the architect
who is specified in the contract. For
example, the architect might order the
contractor 10 do a part OF the work and
furnish material, and then some member
Of the committee might give entirely differ
ent orders.

tor OF the La Nell rooming house. was

BREWERS OBJECT TO
LIQUOR ORDINANCE
Joseph Lippman Heads Delegation;
Ayers That Enactment Is
Discriminatory.

Protests against the new liquor ord-
limiting saloons to one for each 1000
population were laid before the commits
sion by the local brewery interests yes
terday.
An informal session was held In the
office OF the mayor 10 discuss the ordi-
nance, which was introduced last week
and will come mp Thursday for n final
vote. Beside the commissioners and the
city attorney there were present Joseph
Lippman, representing the Salt Lake
Brewing company; w. p. kiser OF the
Wagener Brewing company and \. Fisher
Of the Fisher Brewing company. George
klenke. proprietor Of retail saloon. also
was there
AS chief spokesman Mr. Ltppmen de-
clared that the effect Of tho ordinance
would be TO eliminate the saloons that
ness into the hands of the so-called high
class saloons, which handle only eastern
beers. The same complaints have been
laid before the commission heretofore.
The brewery men were of the opinion
that the question of the number Of sa-
looms should be left TO the natural law
Of supply and demand, holding that the
excessive license tax exacted by the city
was ample regulation. Later they sug-
gested that II a limit Is to be placed on
the number that some such numeral as
800 or 600. rather than 1000, population
be fixed.
The city attorney suggested that the
year and his idea was Immediately OBJ
jected to by Mr.. Klenkes, the only sa-
Ioonman present, who declared the license
TO be a burden already,

|DR. PAUL DECLARED
BEST LITTLE F|XER"
Versatile Health Commits
sioner Finds New Way of
''Skinning the Cat.''

| Or. Samuel G. Paul. city health conf
missioner. hung another tassle on his
| escutcheon yesterday. DR. Paul discov-
cred new way to "sliln cat" which
makes several ways In which the COM
| missioner is now well versed.
Several weeks ago the doctor decided
he must Ina re another district nurse But
opposition arose In the city commission.
Two district nurses were enough. thought
some OF the members Of that body, so DIR,
Paul went in search OF AN idea.
A few days later the name Of r. Iiarous
was sent TO the city commission as the
doctors appointment OF q new third grade
inspector In the health department. IL
was approved as IA matter OF routine. 1t
was week or Two later that those MEM
bers of the commission not inclined to
add TO the district nurse corps. discov-
cred that Z. Karous was otherwise known
as Miss Rose karous; that she was a
nurse and had been assigned To dis
trict nurse duties.
Time passed and the versatile health
commissioners determined upon still an
other district nurse, The same trick
could hardly be expected TO pass muster
a gain, so DR.. Paul fra enkly put 1t up to
the commission that he needed this addi-
tlonal nurse only for sixty days, OF until
the municipal milk station was closed for
The senson. The appointment was made
and Miss Alma Carlson entered the en-
ploy OF the city.
Then came the viGilant eye OF the city
auditor, Harry Shearman, who discovered
That under the city ordinances the health
department had one more member than 1t
had any right to. Accordingly he refused
to pay the new nurses salary
DIR. Paul spent full quarter OF an
hour over that problem. Then he untan-
sled his long legs from the table and
consulted the city ordinances. Finding
therein that which he sought. he dictated
letter TO the city commission recon-
mendins the appointment of S. c. Evans,
a veteran inspector in the depa rtment, to
the position OF registrar of vital statistics,
The Innocent looking recommended ton
came UP yesterday morning and passed
after the mayor had explained that such
a position existed In the statutes In spite
OF the fact that il had long been unoc-
cupied.
An of which means that Miss Carlson
Will get place on the payroll since the
acing of Evans in the nominal position
OF registrar leaves room for her In the
department.
