Sentiment in Congress Behind Mr..
Wilson in His Action, and the Plan
Is Adopted by the Cabinet With
No Dissenting Opinion.

Washington.-The first step toward
actual American Intervention in Mex
leo has been taken.
Exasperated by President Huerta's
blunt refusal to heed the demand of
the United States for a salute of TWEEN
ty-one guns to the American flag for
the affront offered when an American
officer and marines were arrested at
Tampico and marched through the
streets under arrest, the President of
the United States ordered practically
the whole Atlantic feet to Tampico,
together with the transport Hancock,
with 800 marines On board. The tor
pedo fotilla at Pensacola, including a
score Of ~destroyers, has been ordered
to stand by awaiting orders.
It was ordered that the powerful
Atlantic feet Of eleven ~battleships
with 157 guns, now in home waters,
to proceed with all possible haste and
make a demonstration off the port of
Tampico. These, with the ships now
in Mexican waters, will make a force
of seventeen warships with 249 guns.
1t was a notification to Huerta that
unless the salute is fired, with all
formality and without quibbling, the
big guns of the fleet will be trained on
the city, and a force of more than
5000 men landed in Tampico. Once
the ships are in Tampico, only a few
hours will be given to Huerta.
President Wilson feels that the ar
rest of Assistant Paymaster Charles
C. Copp and the marines of the Dol
phin at Tampico, following by their
forced parade through the streets,
when they we're insulted by Huerta-
ties, was i"nexcusable and indicative
of the suppressed hatred of Amer1-
cans by Huerta and his followers.
When the President retired his dis
position was to show nc further elem
ency and patience. He has tried both
and feels that his efforts were moi
only a failure, but that the Nation had
been insuEted because of its forbear
ance.
There was a two-hour Cabinet meet
ing as soon as the Huerta message
was received. Secretary Daniels left
the Cabinet room to issue his order
to the Atlantic fleet to move at once
Wireless messages flashed up and
down the coast to unite the fleet a.
Tampieo.
1t will be the largest fighting force
the American Government has evel
assembled. F~orty-six warships anc
auxiliaries with $1,000 men will com
prise the force off Tampico.

s~EAsoNABLE HINTS

the leaves of h~orseradish all make
most effective brooms Of the blood.

add a quart of milk. Mix together
two tablespoonfuls each Of -four and

nutmeg and butter and close the other

IS NO LONGER AN ORACLE
People Have Ceased 10 Look Upon the
Dictionary as an Authority That
10 Infsllible.

The dictionary is ceasing, gradu-
ally, but surely, to be an oracle. It's
position as such was never quite Sc
cure. Even when Samuel johnson
first essayed to set the standard Of
English usage he had to encounter
both scofers and Scotsmen; the
scolfers organized, the Scotsmen
triumphed SO that step by step,
pushed forward by the omnivorous
industry Of German scholarship and
lured onward by commercial compe-
tition, the dictionary, unlike the pro-
verbal rolling stone, has gathered
much moss by rolling-down hill
To cite from the dictionary is now
proof, not Of the correctness of a
word or idiom or pronunciation, but
merely Of its existence.
A century of encyclopedias has
accomplished this. When Diderot
began his work his aim was to sys-
tematize knowledge parallel with a
given philosophy of things; today
the encyclopedia takes, with Bacon,
call knowledge for his province"
The dictionary has followed closely
behind. The gain, after all, is ours.
Standards are now set, and disputed,
in separate place assigned to them
the dictionary gives us the whole
wealth of words from which to draw
at will. 1t would seem that the prin-
ciple of inclusiveness could scarcely
be carried beyond the position
reached today, unless to include the
necessary popular formations that
must continue as long as the Ian
guage lives.

AERoPLANES GROW IN SIZE
Built Now to Carry Passengers, De-
spite the Pessimistic Warnings
of the Theorists.

Big aeroplanes are the striking de-
velopment of this year in aeronau-
tics-six-passenger, eight-passenger,
and even ten-passenger machines
having made successful flights. Many
theorists have recently declared that
there are physical limits to the size
of successful aeroplanes, and that
these limits have nearly been
reached but on the practical side the
development continues.
One Russian aviator has made
long flights with a machine having a
span of more than 100 feet. The
latest model in Wright's machines
in contrast, has span of only IS
feet; and the span of the high-speed
French machines is much less. The
Russian aeroplane carries ten passen'
gers, all seated comfortably in an in
closed car. Four hundred horsepower
is used to turn four propellers.
A tandem biplane recently tried
out on the Seine in France, adapted
to rise from the water, weighs more
than three tons loaded, and is driven
by three engines developing 400
horsepower. Two sets of wings have
a span of 50 feet each. Machines
are now being constructed to carry
10 and IA passengers.-Saturday
