revolver and gazed at it fiXedly. He
had come out to this secluded spot in
quiet village to end it all with
pistol shot. A proud man, a crushed
man, the last ditch seemed reached,
and he set his lips grimly.
The little child was Flora Easton,
sWeet-faced, angel-eyed girl of ten.
The chair was drawn up close to
rustic table. Upon this were writing
materials. AS she took up pencil,
one could see from the slow, weak
and erratic movements of her hand
that she had only an imperfect con-
troll over its muscles.
Poor child Young as she was,
Flora had known both pain and sor-
row. She had seen her loving par
ents broken hearted over the sudden
death of that other flower of the fam
lily, her sister, for whom now her lit
tie mourners clad in black, the crick-
cts sliding through the grass, each
evening piped for her solemn mass.
Then Flora, too, had been stricken.
On the rare golden threshold of joy
out girlhood she had been deprived Of
the use of feet and hands.
A patient father, loving mother
had brought to her aid all that money
or medical skill could effect. 1t was
the grand heroic spirit of the little
one herself, however, that had won
half the battle.
Finer was little Flora's accus-
toned CHEEKY reply when asked how
she was getting along. 'Never say
die" she had even taught the pet
parrot to cry out. In the fervor of
the optimism she had adopted as the
creed and sustenance of health
broken life. She shed sunshine every
where.
And daily, first with the movement
of a single finger, each hour gaining
some ground in cropping her way
back to her old activity.

Washington. April 21.-Believing that
Vera Cruz is the centre of activity in
the Mexican crisis the administration
had radio messages flashed to the meet
hound for Tampico to proceed 10 vera
Cruz instead with all speed.
Another indication of Impending
events came when it was announced
that a portion Of the torpedo Hotlila
had been ordered to Texas. Ihe de-
strovers will be used 10 convoy trans
ports carrying troops to Mexican
waters. No danger is expected from
Mexican gunboats, but the government
Is taking no chances.
II was at 3 O'Clock this morning that
tho administration first heard that the
Hamburg liner 1piransa
WAS due early to-day at vera Cruz
with 100000 rounds Of ammunition
and $50 machine guns aboard. The

facts. The resident at once directed
,hat Pear Admiral Fletcher be ordered

Navy Department officials were
promptly awakened. Orders were
drafted and sent from the wireless sta
tion at Arlington and by the old style

Rear Admiral Fletcher was told that
in no circumstances must those arms

SUGGEST W0MEl TO

Some Of Fair Sex Likel, to Be-
Named to Take Chargef

Why not let some Of the woma hfk.
4rs lead Washinston's community walk.
ers?.
That is the question which sewers ~
the mixers have asked 1t is quite poh-
able that some of the fair sex who hive
been hitting the trair' recently vii
be named as members OF the council .,
leaders when the mixers effect an T.
formal but permanent organization.
this afternoon.
The proposition to effect an orpanizat,o,
through which mixers NAV be made more
certain OF walks through the summer
has met with favor In several quarters.
and It is believed, will meet with full
approval from the mixers this after
noon.
The proposition is to be brought up
by Frank c. Merritt. Walter W. Paige
and e. A. Gamhs when the mixers make
halt during their trip this afternoon.
Mr.. Merritt is to lead the taunt this AFT.
ernoon. assisted by Mr. paige. Mr..
Gamhs has led previous hikes ana n to
lead the one next Sunday.
Women have been leaders Of hikes In
other cities. Some Of the mixers think
It would be a good idea to let some Of
the women Of this city select the trails
over which to lead the lovers of the
great outdoors on a portion OF the trip
Just how this idea will appeal to the
women. however. is not yet known.
The outing this afternoon. which. con
sidering the fact that the question Of
organization is to be brought up. may
prove one Of the most important onss
yet held. is to be through Rock Creek
Park The start will be made at $50
o'clock from Chevy Chase Circle The
route Is to lead through sections Of the
big reservation as yet unexplored by the
wanderlusters.
Mr.. Merritt, who has been over the
trail. has given his assurance that plenty
Of drinking water is to be found on the
trip. The route leads almost entirely
through the woods. 1t is to be about
five miles in length, but after about
three miles have been traversed will come
within less than a mile of the car lire.
Leader Merritt has spent part of his
life in the woods Of Maine, and is an
enthusiast on outdoor life. He possesses
a wide knowledge of plants and trees.
Men who wish to make the hike are
urged to dispense with their coats.
