INDIANS IN PERU
 MURDER SETTLERS
Bloodthirsty Huambisas Stacking and Burning Towns in Maranon
 Valley

Lima, Peru, May 23.-The warlike and bloodthirsty Humbisas are in arms again and an apalling massacres of settlers is reported today. The scene is the Upper Maranon.
 Settlers are fleeing from the Maranon valley in large numbers. The vicinity of this tributary of the Anna zon has see ma large number of recent outrages by savages.
 This latest raid was on the rubber stations of Marruecos and Maya, which were sacked and destroyed, while some fifty people were massa- cred, their bodies afterwards being burned.
 The "caucheros" fought desperate ly to the end, but neither women nor children were spared. And when an armed party arrived on the scene they only found smoking ruins and death.
 Only two months ago indians slew some fifteen settlers in the same part of the world, while last year the Huambisas, who are responsible for the present tragedy, wiped out the Peruvian garrison on the Morona river, near the Ecuador frontier.
 This attack was treacherously and unexpectedly maderupon the camp, the Indian chief shooting Captain Bezada down with the very gun which his victim had just shown him how to use. After the massacre the camp was sacked and burned by the sava- ges. Seventeen members of the gar rison fortunately managed to escape, having been absent from the camp at the time.
 The Huambisas are a warlike tribe that have so far proved wholly in- tractable to the influence of civiliza- 'tion. They have been guilty of num- erous murders and massacres in the Maranon region. In 1900 they attack ed the village of Barranca, killing a number of people. In 1904 they fell upon Nazareth, near the Pongo de Manseriche, killing between forty and fifty persons, while in 1911 the rubber gatherers along the river Aichayacu suffered severely at their hands.

POPULAR OVER IN ENGLAND Many of the Towns Employ Professionals to Play
 On Team

London, May 23.-Football has an enormous grasp on the working peo- pie of England, as figures concern ing the season just ende unpublished today show. In seventy-siX champion ship matches S435,00O was taken at the gate, although the average admis- sion price would be considered tiny in the United States.
 Englishmen are still protesting at the employment of professionals and endeayoring to show the absurdity of having Kensington,' for instance, represented by men no one of whom is a native or resident of that town.
 An the other hand there are a mil lion members of football clubs affili- ated with the country associations. All told the professional players only number 1000.
 As with the American baseball players, large sums are not paid as transfer fees for players leaving one club for another. No great fortunes will ever be made in English football, however. The laws of the association forbid the payment of any directors fees an dthe dividends of sharehold- CTS in clubs is limited to per ce2t In the year the clubs contributed about $100,000 to charity.
 Footballs popularity has killed many cruel sports in England for instance, cock fighting and bear bait ing

Little chickens as we'll as the older

Little chickens as we'll as the older ones. need shade during the warm weather. The coop is not large enough. If it can be placed under a tree or in the shade of large build ing it will be much better. The best plan is to have a few trees in the chicken yard. Many poultrymen plant plum trees in their yards. This pro- vides shade for the fowls and the fowls help the friut by destroying many injurious insects whic hattack the trees. You have doubtless notic- ed that hens and chickens are not very active in the, hottest of the long summer days. They prefer to scratch and dust themselves in the shade. This adds to their comfort, and any, thing which makes them comfortable makes them more profitable.

Find Your Happiness Where You Are.

Sometimes it seems as though
the very ones who are untrammeled
who can 60 wherev and whenever
they like, are the last te find happi-
ness, having the whole wide world
in which TO carry on the quest of
if. Felicity is discovered soonest
by those who stay in one place
long enough to make a thorough
search. The restless ones, with
the consciousness of all the earth
outspread before them, are tempted
TO another spot ere they have ex-
plored the region round about
them.

Oppose lniuuctions.

Trenton, N j., Jan. 30.-As
semblyman Quinn has introduced
in the State legislature the anti-in-
Junction bill which organized labor
has so insistenily urged. The bill
provides that no restraining order
or injunction shall be grarted in
any case between an employer and
employe relating TO labor disputes
or strikes, unless necessary to pre-
vent irreparable injury to property
rights of the peison making the
application, and for which there is
no adequate remedy at law. A bill
prohibiting the employment of
women. or girls as coremakers or
molders in fouudries promises to
duplicate the hot fight caused by a
SIMILAR bill introduced at the last

Favors Safety Bill.

Washington, January, 30 The
house committee on labor has re-
ported favoraDly a bill to create a
bureau of labor safety in the De-
partment of Labor. Congressman
Bremner, of New Jersey, author of
one of the bills submitted, aud who
is now sick in a Baltimore hospital,
forwarded brief on the subject to
the committee, from which the fol
lowing figures on industrial acci
dents and their cost is taken:
"Out of 81 600, 600 people engaged
in gainful occupations, thee are
yearly 2, 900, 600 accidents, of which
500, 600 are serious, entailing an
annl al loss of $40, 600, 600 in earn
ings. There are 5000, 600 cases OF
preventable industrial illness, en-
failing cost of $500, 900, 600.
There are $4,000 widows and AS
600 orphaned. To illustrate he
annual waste of normal earning
capacity, as result of these three
causes alone, Mr.. Bremner places
the economic value of a worker al
81 900. This makes the annual
loss exceed $3.50, 200, 600.
