Will you help raise the money?
1t is the only way hundreds OF
children in this city will get any
Christmas whatever. You, who are
preparing to lavish presents upon
your own children, giving them more
than they know what to do with
will not you. cut out just one OF those
presents and send the price of 1t to
the EVENING NEWS to help swell
the Christmas tree fund for the poor
children of Perth Amboy? Send It
in the name of your own children so
that this Christmas treat will be q
gift from the children of Perth AM
boy to those less fortunate than
themselves, just as the Christmas
ship sent to Europe was a gift from
fortunates abroad.
1t will take only $50 or $50 to do
this. A penny from each school child
would be sufficient. But to start the
ball rolling the Ditmas theatre has
donated IS and the EVENING NEWS
gives SIS more. If five people would
give SIS each and thirty-five others
would give 81 each, the sum would
be raised But small amounts coming
from the children, If of sufficient
quantity, would be better. Send 1t

OVER 30 DROWN
WHEN SCHOONER
SINKS IN PAC|F |C


San Francisco. Cal, Nov. 24:--
From twenty to thirty lives were lost
today when the schooner Hanalei
went to pieces ON Duxbury reef ten
miles east of here, after having
pounded on the rocks for nearly
eighteen hours. This word reached
here shortly after o'clock In tele-
phone messages from the Marconi
wireless station at Bolinas, Cal. At
that hour twenty persons reached the
shore on pieces OF wreckage strug
Cling through the surf one by one.
At dawn the terrific pounding to
which the Hanalei had been SUBJECT
ed broke up the vessel. 1t is believed
probable that at least thirty persons
of the fifty-eight passengers and crew
on board perished.
The United States revenue cutter
McCulloch arrived here today bring
ing the thirteen survivors and the
bodies OF fifteen victims of the Han
alei. Unless the list of those saved
is much greater than this, the indca-
tions are the fatalities may reach
forty.

THE MEXICAN SITUATION

between Gen. CarranZa and Gen. Vii
la resulted from a plot by American
oil intrests to gain control of the rail-
way of northern Mexico, according
to information. Villa blockaded the
plan, which has Carranza's sanction,
to place man friendly to the oil in
terests in control of the railroads. He
refused to recognize Carranza's ap-
pointment of Alberto PAM as director
of railways, and continued Eusebio
Calzado, his trusted lieutenant, in the
place.
The connection between PAM and
the American oil interests was reveal
ed in an expose printed by the New
York Herald. The newspaper prints
what purports to be correspondence
between Harry S. Pierce, oil mag
nate, and Sherbourne G. Hopkins, |
confidential adviser in Washington to |
CarranZa.
The scheme of the American oil in |
terests was to gain control of the |
Mexican Central Railway, which |
would transport the oil out of Mexico.
Washington.-It is suspected that
Gen. Carranza is "stalling" and that
sooner or later this attitude will re-
suit in a showdown between the con-
stitutionalist chieftain and the U. S.
His latest excuse for. the delay in
sending representatives to the media
ton conference is that he must con-
suit with all his generals.
Juarez, Mex, June 29.-That Gen.
Villas break with Gen. Carranza has
again become acute with interpreta-
ton placed by constitutionalists on
the rebel chieftain's action Sunday in
withdrawing his entire
army from the Zacatecas campaign.
1t is believed Villa has sent an ulti-
matum to Carranza and that all his
military operations will cease pend

WHY THE DOG HoWLS
BY Berton BraIey.
Why does the dog throw back his
head
And howl at night to greet the moon?
In ages long forgot and dead
When earth was still a block new
hewn,
The wolf pack roamed the wilderness
And with them ran, all gaunt and
gray,
The father of our friend today,
A white-fanged wolf-whom time
has made
Into the, slave of man, his aid,
A comrade ever faithful grown,
Who sleeps beside his own hearth
stone.
But now and then when moonlight
thrills
Across the valleys and the hills,
The old wild magic steals again
Over the canine friend of men;
He seems to stink the forest through,
The ancient forest that he knew;
He seems to hear again the pack
That bays upon the white moons
track,
And from his throat and shaggy jowl
Issues again the old wolf howl,
That ululating lupine wall
That once re-echoed on the trail
l know not if this tale be truth,
But so twas told me, in my youth!
