RAIN WAS WELCOME.
Help to Fire Fighters and to Tobacco
 Men.

The long delayed rain Friday was welcomed by nearly everybody and especially the tobacco men of the state. It will add many thousands of dollars to the value of their. crop.
 There has not been rain like this one since the middle of August. The fire wardens around the state will also welcome the rain, as many of them are blackened with smoke and ashes from the forest fires which they and volunteer armies of fire fighters have been combating. Everyone hopes for 9 sufficient rainfall to moisten the parched earth. to soak into the under brush and day leaves and remove the great danger of forest fires, and to brace up whitening vegetation which has dropped. not so much because of autumn frosts as because of the drought. And there is also hope that Fridays rain was the forerunner of copious- showers that might rerlenish

GUARD WAS NO GOOD
Greaser Rebels Laid Mines and Blew
Up a Train Under the MuZZleS
of Federal Guns

Mexico City, Feb. 15.-Total de-
struction OF National Railway train
at Las Cavas by rebels early yester-
day with dynamite and fire caused
the death of several scores of pas
sengers. several of whom were
Americans, and all of the crew ex-
cept the engineer and one brakeman.
Details received here by railway
officials indicate that the wrecking of
the train was the worst, so far as
loss Of life is concerned, Of any in a
long series of ohtrages perpetuated
by rebels. When the train, which
was bound from Tampico TO San Lu-
is Potosi, with cars filled with pas
sengers and a military escort, was
approaching Las Canoas the rebels,
/ BY means Of an electric battery. eX-
plo3ed a series of mines laid beneath
f! the tracks. Almost every car was
/ shattered burying occupants in the
/ debris. The wreck either was ignit-
! ed from the explosion or was fired
! by rebels who swarmed down on it
from the mountains.
The disaster illustrates the eff
/ frOntry Of the rebels, as the Tampico
line is carefully guarded by Federals
TO keep it open for the shipment OF
! fuel petroleum. The rebels planted
their mines under the noses of the
big garrison of Federals at Cardenas
a short distance from Las Canoas.
/ Most of the passengers who were
in the rear cars fed to the brush,
and some OF them succeeded in
reaching nearby stations.
After the train had been wrecked
and destroyed by fire the rebels tore
up almost a mile OF track A mill
tary train has been dispatched from
Cardenas to the scene. 1t is report
ed also that the rebels have cut the
water supply Of the city Of Tampice
eff and have stopped the light Of the
AItamira lighthouse. in order tc
force the Federals 10 come out and
fight.

Where Women Run Cars.

The suggestion that women may be
employed as street car conductors in
Philadelphia has brought out the fact
that the women of Latin America,
usually thought Of as sheltered, retir-
ing and unprogressive. have been do.
ing this kind of work for years. DIR
ing the war between Chill and Peru,
when all the men of Chill were need
ed at the front, women took their
places on the street ears, and San
tiago, Valparaiso and several other
cities have had women condr ctors
ever since
