100 MUTINEERS
SHOT TO DEATH
MEN WHO REBELLED AT SERV-

LINED UP AND EXECUTED.

Mexico City.-General Jiminez Cas-
tro, recalled military governor of Jo-
Julia, arrived here and reported to
the war minister that more than one
hundred mutinous federal soldiers
were lined up against wall before
firing squads and executed. An effort
was made by President Huerta to sup
press the facts of the wholesale
slaughter, but General Castro told his
story in the presence of witnesses who
do not doubt its accuracy.
General Castro reported that after
the mutineers, who numbered about
thousand and were reinforced by Ia
pata adherents, had abandoned Jo-
Julia, they were pursued by the fed
erals. Many of them were killed in
battle, the prisoners being executed.
1t required less than half an hour for
the slaughter of the men who rebelled
at service in the army of General
Huerta. The firing squad worked rap
idly and pumped bullets into the bod
les of their former comrades as fast
as they were lined up. Bodies were
piled high along the wall when the
last squads were brought out, and
those going to their death stumbled
over the forms of those who had faced
the rifles of the executioners only a
few minutes before. With the last
mutineer dead the bodies were burie,
in one trench.
Forced by the increasing serious
ness of the ituation in Mexico from
financial rather than military view
point, President Huerta at last ap-
pears to be ready to resume negotia-
tions with John Lind, President Will
sons personal representative, which
were broken off last August.
The minister of foreign affairs, Jose
Lopez Portilo y Rojas, mentioned as
probable successor to Huerta, has
been directed to reopen unofficial dip
lomatic exchanges with Lind and for
that purpose went to Vera Cruz.

II has been estimated that about As
per cent. of the disease and death of
the people of the United States can be
prevented by the application of mod
ern methods of sanitation, said Booker
II. Washington in recent address. If
this is true of the People of the United
States as whole, / think it is safe
to say that at least 65 per cent. of the
disease and death among negroes is
due to causes that can be prevented
| say this because, as everyone knows,
the death rate Is much larger at the
present time among negroes than
among whites. Particularly is this
true among the negro population of
the larger southern cities.
What then is the remedy? l have
said that in this generation at least the
negro will be best off, from every point
of view in the rural districts of the
south. We cannot, however, expect
that he will remain In the country dis
tricts contented happy and prosperous
without the same means of civilization
that other races enjoy. We cannot ex-
pect the negro to remain in the coun-
try IL he has little opportunity to edu-
cate his children; if the schools are
in session only two or three months
in the year.
Another remedy for the present con-
dition of negro health is education.
The reason that SO large number of
the people of my race are i'll and in
efficient is because they are ignorant.

EHRHART TO DEMAND $4,000
FROM CAPITOL MANAGERS.
Colorado Road Commissioner to Sue

Denver.-Suit to recover from the
state capitol board $270,000 borrowed
from the internal improvement fund
twenty-three yeal $ ago, with which to
complete the capitol, and none of
which has been returned, will be filed
by State Highway Commissioner T. j..
Ebrhart in the Supreme Court.
The complaint is being prepared by
Norton Montgomery, assistant attor-
ney general, and will be filed by Attor-
ney General Farrar on behalf of Ehr-
hart, who is custodian of the internal
Improvement fund at this time by rea-
son Of being the state highway COM
missioner.
The discovery that this comforta BILE
roll of state money belonged to his de-
partment was made by Commissioner
Ehrhart several months ago while dig
ging through the statute books of Colo
radios early legislatures.
There he found that by an act of
the Eighth General Assembly the sum
Of sl50,O00 had been transferred IN
April, 1891, from the internal improve
ment fund to the capitol board to be
used in furnishing the capitol build
ing the completion of which had been
delayed many weeks for lack of
money. The interest was placed at
3Is per cent annually and in a flour
ishing sentence, characteristic of the
oratory of the day, faith of the state"
was pledged to return each and every
cent of the loan.'

They have never had an opportunity to

every city and every town of the south

the white portion of the population
alone, but shall extend to the black

annually not far from $S0,000,000 in
an attempt to rescue drunkards, gam

make up SO large portion of the pop
ulation of the great English cities. In
word, they were spending that tre-
mendous sum in trying to get people
up out of the ditch.
The masses of the negro people in
the south, with all their weaknesses
and handicaps, are not yet in the
ditch. How much simpler, wiser and
more economical to spend some mil
lions of dollars to save these people
before they fall instead of waiting to
save them after they are already lost.

Colorado Wool Valued at 100000

COLORADO WOOL valued at S2,oOo,OOu
Denver.-Predictions of the value of
the Colorado wool clip for 1914 place
the figure at $2,OOo,OOO, and in some
instances even higher. A popularity
of the expected financial returns from
wool is the fact that gains in prices
have ben made under free wool. The
prices on which bids are being made
for this years clip range from L to 2
cents per pound higher than a year
ago. Eastern buyers have already con-
tracted for fully $4,000 worth of Colo
RADIO wool, while some. growers have
declined to contract their wool at IS
cents or IA cents, believing the price
will go higher. Shortage in the sup
ply of stored wool, due princaplly to
the fact that manufacturers used their
supplies in anticipation of cheaper
wool under the new tariff law, is Civ
en- as the reason for the advance in
prices.
