LIQUOR ON NAVAL
VESSELS TABOOEDi

Washington, April T-Secretary Dan
lels' order, barring the use of alcoholic
liquors In the navy, effective after July
l. next. was generally discussed in ma;
val and other circles here, today. The
order. one of the most sweeping ever
promulgated by the navy, not only
abolishes the traditional wine mess
Of the officers. but will bar all alcoholic
liquors from every ship and shore sta
ton of the navy.
Surgeon General BREASTED recon-
mended 1t. after an exhaustive investi-
cation into the problem.
While declining to discuss. for pub
lication, The effect of the order. naval
OFFICERS privately expressed the belief
1t may fail of it's purpose-to prevent
or decrease drunkenness within the
navy. In effect. the order does no more
than abolish the wine mess. No dis
titled spirits are sold in the wine mess.
only wines and beer. Officers contend
IL is aDsnrd to d that men ever
become drunkards on beer or cham
payne. They expressed the opinion that
the order will trespass their personal
liberty and prevent their affording Wis
itors. from foreign navies. the wines
own vessels.
The order was hailed with joy here,
today. by the prohibition forces, who
declare 1T will have a great Influence in
the fu~rtherance of the temperance
cause.
In a statement Secretary Daniels
said:
II am in hearty agreement with the
view expressed by the surgeon general
IN his paper accompanying the recon-
DAT There should not be on
~shIpboard, with reference to intoxi-
cants. n rule for the officers and an
other and a different rule for the en-
listed personnel. The saddest hour in
my official life is when an officer or
an enlisted ma must be punished for
tntoxication. During the last week lit
has been my painful duty to approve
q courtmartial for dismissal Of an Of
ficer for intoNication. He told me that
he had never tasted Intoxicating drink
until he did so in the mess on one OF
our cruisers. Others who have been
disciplined for drinking to excess have
made similar statements to me.
"Off1cers are now commissioned at
the early age of % years. Has the gov
eminent q to permit this temp
tation, which too often destroys the
highest usefulness of young officers?
I think not. IL there is one profession
more n n other that calls for a
clear head and a steady hand it is the
naval profession. Experience has shown
the wisdom of having no intoxicants
on our ships for the young men who
enlisted.
Il believe experience has demon
strated that a uniform rule should pre-
vail in the navy for all who enlist, from
the highest a to the en-
listed man or officer who comes into
the service, and that the abolition Of
the wine mess will be Justified"
When asked today to comment on the
order President Wilson said it be-
longed strictly to the department. II
is understood that the president was
not consulted by Mr.. Daniels before he
issued the order and no one processes
to know whether it had the presidents
approval.

OIdest LIVING Twins.

William and Samuel Muncy, Of Baby
Ion, /. T., who recently celebrated their
95th birthday anniversary, have the
distinction of being the Oldest living
twins. They attribute their good health
to the fact that they have lived an OUT
door life as far as they possibly could.
AS youngsters they would, when their
work on the farm was done for the day,
go fishing in the evening, instead of
making their way down to the general
store to gossip. The two men eat when
ever they feel hungry, do not smoke,
chew, nor drink. and although there are
seven physicians who are members of
their family, they have never had occa-
sion to call on them for aid.

"A Guard Of the Sepulchre

Now age is on me and the yoke of time.

All that last night | watched with ~sleepless eyes;

Stretch like a dead thing folded in a shroud.
Once, in the pauses of our whispered talk,
heard a something on the garden walk.
Perhaps it was a crisp leaf lightly stirred,
Perhaps the dream-note of a waking bird;
Then suddenly an angel, b~urning-white,
Came down with earthquake in the breaking light,
And rolled the great stone from the sepulchre,
Mixing the morning with a scent of myrrh.
And 10, the dead had risen with the day
The Man of Mystery had gone his way!

Now let the tooth of Time eat out my name;
For we, who all the wonder might have told,
Kept silence, for our mouths were stopt with gold.

sPANlARDS ORDERED OUT
OF TORREON BY REBELS

T~orreon, Mex, April Gen. Fran
cisco Villa has ordered that the GOO
spaniards of this city be deported. He
issued instructions that trains be pro-
vIded at once and that the xodus to
~ Paso, Tex, should begin at once.
Their property will be confiscated, tenn
porarily at least.
1t is the tragedy of chihuahua over
again. and is said to express the deep
rooted suspicion and even hatred with
which the native Mexican, and particu-
larly the peon, looks upon the e;pan-
lard.
Villa expelled the Dons from Chihua-
hua four months ago, and since then
has repeatedly stated that other Span-
iards would better get out OF Mexico
before he caught them. His abiding
conviction that they were working ais
one man against The revolution found
frequent expression while he was in
Juarez at which time he asserted he
would execute every that he found
in Torreon.
The order was received in tragic ST.
lence, followed by passionate outbursts
OF pleading and lament. All asserted
that they had remained neutral so Far

ana the forced contribution of money
and food.
To have refused. they said. wopyd
have meant death or at least imprison-
ment, but Villa is inclined to believe
that there was little reluctance in the
aid and comfort they extended to his
enemy, and he resents the fact that
they did not leave the city when he
do so. -
Mexican hatred of the Spaniard is a
tradition handed down from the DAYS
Of the conquest.
