with President Huerta. O'Shaugh-
messy was reported at Vera Cruz to
be ready to demand a showdown"
which would make his position with
the administration clear. He has
stated he does not expect to return
TO Mexico.
Secretary of War Garrison today
denied that General Funston is un-
der any orders to send soldiers TO the
relief of Consul Silliman at San Luis
Potosi
"The Silliman matter has been
taken up in no way with this depart
ment and such an expedition would
not come under General Funston's
discretionary powers" he said.
0'Shaughnessy at Capital.
Former Charge O'Shaughnessy in
Mexico City. reached here this morn
ing and went to the State Depart
ment al 1915 for a conference with
Secretary Of State Bryan.
O'Shaughnessy declined to discuss
Mexican affairs pending his report to
the Secretary of State. He will not
see President Wilson today, but will
very likely confer with him tOmor-
today to preparations for his daugh-
ters wedding this evening.
It was stated by officials in touch
with the Presidents plan that neither
John Bassett Moofe, nor Hannis Tay-
lor former minister to Spain for the
United States, would be selected as
mediators, for the United States.
The President was said to have
eliminated both OF these despite
strong pressure. It was considered
almost certain that Secretary of the
Interior Lane would head the United
States delegation and the President
was today considering the names of
Chief Justice White and Justices
Hughes and Lamar OF the Supreme
Court.
Under arrest and in danger OF their
lives, the Smith family of ten is held
at Tonala, according to State Depart
ment advices today. This family,
part of a group of refugees from Sa-
lima Cruz. was jailed because they
killed three MeXieans IN "A mob which
attacked their home. The other ref
ugees, the Guatemala consul reported,
arrived safely.
The whereabouts Of CONSUL Silli-
man, Of Saltillo, remained as deep a
mystery today as ever. The depart
ment had no answer to its "tracers,
sent out three days ago, but It will
continue on its efforts to find him.
Consul Schmutz. jailed recently at
Aguas Calientes, reported today from
Houston. He will be in Washington
before the 1lth. Consular Agent Mon
tague reopened the agency at Cam
anea today The mines there are re-
cunning and some Americans are re-
turning.

We're received hopefully by the de-
partment today The rebels were re-
ported leaving Durango and Torreon
for the advance on Saltillo and Zaca-
tecas with the man boyd ready to ad-

Trying to FreShen Up
Written for THE EVENING JOUR
NAL BY James 7. crozier

I met a person on the street
A little while ago
Who said TO me why don't you write
Some lines on Mexico.
thought I'd better take the hint,
Because no longer young,
The only way ! now could fight
Would be 10 use my tongue.
So now I'll try 10 freshen up
Some words of long ago,
In case that they should call on me
To so to Mexico
II hungry. Hambre is the word,
And If I'm thirsty. Sed
Noche Is the word for night
And Cana Is for bed.
Dinero Is for money there,
And Hombre IS for man;
Sombrero is a hat you'll find
And bread is simply Pan.
Panuelo is handkerchief,
Espeio, looking glass;
Perro, dog that's masculine;
Muchacha is lass.
Zapato Is the name for shoe,
And pain they call Delor;
Amigo is the word for friend,
And Mas the word for more.
7HFr
TEMPO Is for weather there,
And FriO. If It's cold;
Calor, If il is very warm,
And ORC name for gold.
I once was an interpreter
But that was long ago;
I'd do my best to jabber yet
If sent to Mexico.

HOUSEHOLD NOTES

The stove with a red top will have
a cool oven.
Always use the coolest of dishes to
serve salad on.
Potatoes are more wholesome baked
than boiled
Il is a good idea to have regular
days for each kind of work.
Macaroni as an article OF food is
rather more valuable than bread.
Never mix any salad with dress
ing until you are ready to use it.
A very practical way to lnish a
floor is to paint it with linseed oil.
Coffee made with an egg has rich
flavor, which egg alone can give.
If cauliflower is good, it should
be heavy and compact in appearance.
Peas, beans and lentils are the
most nutritious of all vegetables SUBJ
stances.
The heavy heads of cabbage are
always the more solid and of finer
texture.
Cabbage leaves contain a great deal
of gluten, therefore are very nourish-
ing.
In making salad dressing, cream
anu hANiNtu huAANA may u' hoSN IA
place of oil
Soup should never be boiled in an
iron vessel porcelain or granite iron
are better.
For the bathroom, cork mats
which can be rolled up are among the
sensible accessories.
Rag rugs made of cotton wash
well, are inexpensive and are often
just the thing for the kitchen.
It is best not to serve the same dish
twice a week unless II be a vege-
table, as every one likes variety.
Don't forget TO close the refriger-
ator door each time you use the box
the ice will last much longer.
Oysters chopped and served in the
gravy of a particularly Juicy porter
house steak are very delicious.
The bone should be left in q
roast; It will help 90 keep the juice
IN and will add flavor and sweetness
Damp salt is an excellent thing to
remove stains on cups and saucers
caused by tea and careless washing
Always take off the draughts OF the
kitchen range as soon as you have
finished a meal, thereby saving fuel
When choosing potatoes take those
OF medium size free from blemishes
and of a, yellowish white color.

The government officials are oe-
coming lax. according to persons ar

They are not arresting criminals and
saloons are not obeying the closing
laws. The entire government is
showing signs OF growing inenlciency,
those people from the capital declare,
and the long expected crumbling Of
the power of the dictator is believed
to be close at hand

Radical Alterations Made
In the Sloop Resolute

Bristol, r. l., May 25.-The flag Of
ficers' cup sloop Resolute came in
from Newport today and made altera-
lions in the jib and topsails which
had become stretched in the recent
tuning up spins. At the same time an
aluminium gaff was rugged on her for
the first time on any cup class yacht
The sail is laced instead of being
attached by rings and the saving in
weight over the old wooden gait and
attached gear amounts to several hun
bred pounds.
The Resolute was given few turns
about the bay after the changes had
been made and stood up stifliy in a
good breeze. She returned to Newport
later in the day but will come back
for an overhauling before sailing for
Glencove, the latter part of the week,
to meet the Vanitie and Defiance. her
rivals for international honors.

CORNELL CONFIDENT
OF VICTORY over
CRIMSON OARSMEN
The Varsity and Freshmen
SCARED Crews Will Race
This Afternoon on Charles
River---Harvard Optimis-
tic

Cambridge, Mass, May 25.-Cornelrs
Varsity and Freshmen eight-oared
crews, flushed with victories over the
crews of Princeton and Yale on Lake
Cayuga last Saturday, came to the
shores of the Charles river today pre-
pared to match their blades tomorrow
against the Varsity and entering
class Fights of Harvard Practice
spins through roughened waters of the
basin showed the Ithacan rowers to
be in good condition, but it was still
a question tonight whether they could
summon their full strength for sec
ond hard contest over a course of
rs miles within four days.
Assistant Coach John Hoyle, who
was in charge of the Cornell men in
the absence of Coach Courtney, said
tonight that the Ithacans were con-
fident of victory Jim Wray, mentor
of the Crimson oarsmen, and who
watched the two Cornell workouts
closely, said that the Cornell Fights
We're both impressive machines, but
that Harvard hoped to win.
The Harvard Varsity eight that
will row tomorrow is a combination
of only a weeks making. the result
of blending of the best men in the
second crew which won from all com
ers at the American Henley and the
Varsity eight as it started the sea
son.
The Cornell Harvard regatta, which
will be rowed in the afternoon, will
have a curtain-raiser is a race be-
tween the eight-oared crews of Cas-
eadilla School of Ithaca, and Stone S
School of Boston. This contest will
be decided in the morning.
