| WONDER
BY Rerton RfaIeY.

They say that if we made each trust
Obey the law-as mortaIs must
We'd have the country going bust!
That if we'd stop 'em in their might
From grabbing everything in sight
We'd have to bid ourselves Good
night!
They say we'd simply go to thunder,
And yeti wonder!
They say that, should the people rule,
They'd ruin church and state and
school
And everybody'd play the fool;
That referendum and recall
And other changes, large and small,
Would raise the dickens with us all;
They say we'd make OF, life blunder,
And yeti wonder!
They say that should a woman vote
She'd wear the trousers and the coat
And cease on little ones to dote;
They say she'd lose her gentle charm,
Grow gruff of voice and strong of
arm skSA
And fill the country with alarm;
They say she'd break the home
asunder,
And yeti wonder!
Whenever something new is started
The doubters, faint and chicken
hearted,
Declare the world has gone to thun-
der,
And yeti wonder!

He suggested the creation of a reserve of officers by selecting each year 400 young men from the graduating class es of military schools with army of tcers as instructors, to ge commis- Isioned provisional second lieutenants in the army for periods of one year. subject only to physical examination.
 If the infantry regiments abroad are to be maintained at full statutory strength, the report said, ten addi- tional regiments must be provided. Gen. Wood expressed the opinion that the Philippine scouts should not he included in estimating the strength of the army and pointed out their ex- clusion would permit the organization of the infantry. field artillery and en- gineers necessary to complete three tactical infantry divisions. ai~
 To encourage the development of the cavalry arm in the militia the general suggested authorizing the maintenance of a limited number of horses fer the guardsmen. New York, he said, was the only state which had made progress the past year toward the completion of a divisional militia organization and it's militia may short ly be expected to complete the plans for smoothly passing into federal service in case of need The report favored federal pay for the militia when it is promptly available for fekderal service.

GENERAL WOOD, IN HIS LAST AM NUAL REPORT, EMPHASIZES
 MILITARY NEED.
MORE MEN AND ARTILLERY
As Well as Ammunition Needed to Put the Army in Shape for Call to the Field-AIso Recommends Reserves of Men and Officers.

Washington. Jan. 173.-FouT steps of vital importance essential to place the United States army in a state Of reasonable preparedness for possible war were recommended to Secretary Garrison today by Mai Gen Leonard Wood, in his last annual report as chief of staff of the army. Gen. Wood proposed:
 First Establishment of a reserve of trained men sufficient to bring the regular army immediately 70 full sta tutory strength and to replace the losses of the first three months of war
 Second. Prompt provision of the remaining 42 per cent of the field ar tlllery project, including guns as yet unprovided for and the necessary am intuition for those now made or un- der manufacture.
 Third. Creation of the necessary organizations to give three complete tactical infantry divisions within the continental limits of the United States.
 Fourth Enactment of such person nel legislation as will eliminate ef- fectively the unfit and stimulate the efficient officer to continued efforts through establishing a condition un. der which progress in rank and com mand will have a close and dependent relationship upon capacity, fitness and accomplishment.
 The establishment of the reserve and the completion of the artillery project, Gen. Wood said. should be carried out at once to avert disaster in time of war. The shortage of ammunition. he added, constitutes a grave danger, as the ammunition could not be manufactured without great delay. The tactical infantry d. visions are necessary to complete one l field army of about 10000 regular 1 troops within the continental limits of the United States. This would mean field army of about 10000 mo- bile troops in a population of more l than sc, ,000,000
 The report referred to the Mexican situation only in case of the border 1 patrol for enforcing the neutrality l laws and the protection of the peo- pie on the border Gen. Wood said this work has been performed in an admirable manner, indicating a high daprea of disrinline
 The division assembled at Texas City, he said, had been maintained in excellent condition and the camr sanitation reflected great credit on the medical corps.
 In connection with the creation oi a reserve which he regards as the most important army matter that has Ibeen before congress in many years

Washington, Jan. 1S.-Announce. ment by the Huerta government of It's intention to default in the payment of the semi-annuaf interest on the bonds of the Mexican national debt created much interest in diplomatic circles tonight, and brought out much speculation, especially among diDio- matic representative accredited to the countries in which the greater part of the loans are held While State Department officials were un- derstood to accept this step as a nat ural development in the policy of waiting for the collapse of the Huerta regime, no comment was forthcoming. Secretary Bryan said he had not been officially advised of this latest turn
 The discussion of European dlplo. mats turned to the security which their nationals will have for the enor- mons sums which go to make up the aggregate of the Mexican debt, exter- nal and internal It was pointed out in the question of Mexican finance the concerted European powers, on ac- count of the great sums at stake, had a keener interest even than the Unit ed States European diplomats there fore have not been disposed to take seriously announcements emanating from constitutionalists as to their pro. posed repudiation of loans and ad. vances to Huerta. They take the view that whatever inuence finally prevails in Mexico City all obligations incurred in time of peace will have to be fulfilled, although it is admitted that war loans advanced during the past year may not be so easy of liqul- dation.
 Brig. Gen. Bliss, commanding the border forces in Texas, reported to the War Department today that a count of the Mexican federal fugitives from Ojinaga at Presidio, Tex, shows 3,952 officers and soldiers, and 1,067 women in his custody. besides 703 horses, BOT mules and 354 burTos.
