Those Wiley Babies.
From the Los Angeles rribun

Liz LOS Angeles TribnDA ~
That Dr.. Wiley is the father of two
boys mere IS no reason to doubt. Col
umns of print nave heralded the fact
There is no xcuse for being In ig-
norance concerning it.
1hat they are fine boys seems to
be a proposition upheld by masses OF
evidence. Each time either of them
gains an M or cuts a tooth, the
news is flashed to the ends az ms
earth, and while the ends OF the earth
MAKE no particular sign that they care
a Whoop, the next ounce and the next
tooth mean another message.
When a man has been a bachelor

chlldren's children should be pla i
about his knees, and then gets mar
rled, fa~therhood swells him with an
especial pride. Naturally, he thinks
that tie babies come to bless his do
nestle circle are the only real ktds that
ever happened.
Possibly it is wrong to di%sillusion
mature papa, but the fact is that the
Ian teens with youngsters Just as
healthy. just as bright, just as bean
tiful as his own.
1t would be a sorry sort Of a world
II It's replenishment had to depend
then of the Joys Of grandparentagea
They would exist for about n per-
son in a million.
Many, oh very many, blessed babies
cheer the households of the land.
Some are reared by faddists and some
without fads, but, given light and air
and wholesome food, the chances of
n are about as good as those Of an
other. Few, however. arrive to such
q circle that every dimple is a world
wide episode, and every case Of collie
bruited abroad.
What is being attempted here is the
statement. bald. perhaps impolite, that
the public has babies of it's own, deems
them as good as any ever born, and
Is getting tired Of the Wiley young
sters. They have had the center of the
stage for a long time, on the apparent
theory that the world is a baby show
and the judge had awarded them all
the blue ribbons. q

ZAPATA. ON POINT
OF SEEING CITY.
vows VENGEANCE

Washington, May 12.-Persisteat re-
ports from Mexican sources that the
revolutionary leader zapata in the
mediate menace to Huerta and to for
eigners in Mexico City, led the state
department today to seek all possible
Information on the subject.
Foreign ambassadors and ministers
here, whose countries have diplomatic
representatives in Mexico City, were
appealed to by the department to in
vestigate thoroughly alarming rumors
concerning, Zapata's threats and the
actual movements of his forces. Thu
department also asked the foreign
diplomats for information as to actua
conditions In Mexico City, particularly
the rumors that Huerta,s position il
rapidly weakening.
A proclamation issued by Genera
Iapata, bandit chieftain, who controls
large sections of southern Mexico, in
dlcates his sinister purposes. The
proclamation reads:
"Emiliano Zapata. supreme gem
era of divisions central and south
of the constitutional army, to the
inhabitants of the City of Mexico:
"Be it known that a council of
war held for the purpose of defeat
ing the ambitions of the men who,
by lowest treason, overthrow the
government constituted by the vol
untary act of the people, has de-
creed the following:
That Mexico City is to be taken
by blood and fire.
THAT Justice shall be melted out
to all enemies of our cause who
are responsible for undisputed
crimes; they to be judged sum
marily by authorities designated
for that
That the property of those on
demned shall be appropriated for
the support of the army.
That all chiefs and officials of
the federal army Shall be shot
without trial. they being the ones
who have sustained the usurper.
THAT the traitors Huerta and
Banquet shall be submitted to
summary trial and publicly judged
for their general bloodthirstiness.
That the lives n property of
foreigners who preserve a neutral
attitude shall be respected: only
those to be punished who tax or
have taken part in the political dis
turbances of the country.
THAT five days be given all resi-
dents Of the City of Mexico who de-
sire to flee from the horrors Of
combat in which to remove them
selves.
THAT the disgraceful press of the
government shall also be Judged
severely by court martial and pun
shed as an example,"
Zapata is the most bloodthirsty and
ruthless Of all rebel leaders in Mexico.
Should he be successful in an attempt
to. capture Mexico City the capital
probably would be the scene Of the
most cruel butchery and rapine that
has yet marked the present revolution.
