FURTHER TALES OF
INSULTS TO FLAG
Refugees From Mexico Arrive
at Galveston, Tex.

Galveston, Tex, April 2S.-Refugees
from Mexico arriving here brought
fresh stories of sudden fight, of pri-
walton and insult to the American
flag. Many of the refugees were
nearly destitute, with children to care
for.
DR.. P. G. Opperman, formerly of
Cleveland, O., a Dixie refugee, said
he escaped violence at Mexican hands
in the Tampico municipal building
after the Vera Cruz fight news was
posted by passing himself Off as a
German.
E. r. Sessions of Florence, S. c., a
Dixie passenger, said he brought
twenty-one women and children down
the Panuco river to Tampico from
Topila, an oil camp, until the Mexi-
can government boat Vera Cruz stop
ped him and sent him back under
threats of Smelling his boat and pas
sengers. He retired and returned fly
ing a German flag, whereupon he was
allowed to pass.
When the feeling at Tampico over
the fighting at Vera Cruz was so high
that the raising of an American flag
imperiled it's owner, Mrs. DR.. Samue
Holt Hodgson, formerly Of Scotsboro
Ala, raised a Confederate flag.

IN REPLY TO THE
OFFER OF MEDIATION
President Wilson Personally
Wrote Peace Note.

Washington, April 28.-President
wilson is not delegating any of his au.
thority or responsibility in the Next
can matters.
It has been learned that the presi-
dent personally wrote the note to the
three diplomatic representatives of
Latin-American states in response to
the offer of mediation.
The president, it is said, realized
the Importance of the note and want
ed to avoid commitments. He was
insistent that no reply should be
made that could be constructed as
recognition of Huerta.
The president let it be known to
the mediators that he would consider
no proposal for peace that contem-
plates the retention of Huerta in the
presidency of Mexico.
The president was insistent also
that the note be drawn to cover ev-
cry aspect of the Mexican situation.
He wants peace generally in Mexico.
The president is much concerned for
the American residents in Mexico.
The British ambassador in Mexico
City has assured him that the Ameri-
cans are not in danger, however, and
that Huerta is sending them out and
is willing they should leave.
Unless the Mexican situation changes
for the better soon there will be a
transfer of several of the most formid.
able of the fleet to the Pacific waters,

NEW BATHHOUSE
TO Be ERECTED
Common Council Decides on
Structure at Hamburg Place
and Ferry Street.

A new public bathhouse. costing
about 800 900, will be erected at Ham
burg place and Ferry street. This
was decided at a meeting of the
public buildings committee of the
Common Council last night. James
s. Pigott, the architect in charge OF
the work, told the committee that
the plans for the new structure had
been submitted to the American As
sociation for Hygiene and Baths.
That body approved of the proposed
building.
The building Is to be erected of
brick and stone, and is to
be one story, with glass roof. The
centre of the main floor will have a
swimming pool tile lined, with the
latest automatic flushing device. The
dimensions of the pool are 26x60 feet,
and Architect Pigott figures that 100
children can be accommodated at one
time. The depth of the pool gradu-
ates from four and a half to seven
feet.
Entering the building, there will be
a spacious waiting room and an OBJ
servation balcony. On the right side
of the building there will be showers
and dressing-r rooms for women and
mothers with small children. On the
left side of the building the plans pro-
vide for a large number of lockers
and from these bathers who want to
use the pool will go through the
shower room, with twelve open
showers, which are to be used by each
person before entering the pool.
The committee also approved the
layout of wards and operating rooms
for the northeast wing of the City
Hospital, formerly the Nurses Home.
The layout had been planned by
Architect Harry King. in consultation
with the hospitals medical staff. The
refitting and remodeling Of the build
ing is not to exceed the cost of
100000.

in like conferences in other States,
only to be followed later by a ma
tional one in a southern State. to
prove that we are sane, respectable,
grown-up beings or persons would
be ludicrous were it not so pitiable.
In America this ought to have been
settled, at the very latest, forty three
years ago, and inculcated in that
other memorable amendment in our
Federal constitution, and VIII oh has
helped to immortalize the name of the
great man who helped to make that
amendment possible. But not only in
America, but all over the world are
thousands and millions of human be-
ings, persons. women, struggling in
various ways and by various means
to prove the same things true Of
themselves.
1T is interesting in studying the
oder civilizations. to see how for CEN
turtles society has managed to SO COM
pose the minds of women that they
have accepted their sphere as gifts
of the gods. Occasionally, however,
in peering back through the ages, we
see how the individual woman has
stood forth, and in consequence we
have had the Individual woman war;
rior, the individual woman poet, the
individual woman educator. To be
sure, in the case of the Bologna pro-
fessor, she was obliged to be screened
from her adoring pupils. nevertheless
the instructor was there, and her
words of encouragement and her ex-
ample of ms stence, in spite of all OBJ

world customs and divisions which
are most interesting to trace. These
customs have partaken of the atmoS-
phere, as it were, of the nations In
which they are to be found. In China
we had the cramped foot of the wom-
an, the stay-at-home; in India we
had the child widow, with the accom-
panying funeral pyre, and in Turkey
we still have the harem. Many years
ago l remember to have heard Pun
dita Ramabai make the statement
that Whatever you women do in
England and America, in the line Of
education. freedom and the larger
life. you will be helping us in India

well as with the harem of Turkey.
In the Western world, in England
and America, woman is free. has the
college education, is now being ad-
mitted to the professions, but there
have been and still are conventionali-
ties binding and most undemocratic
Because of these conventionalities
our horizon has been narrowed. and
because of our unuemocratlc VISION
we have lost sight OF our social rela-
lions.
In Behalf of Children.
For years We have gone to Trenton
in behalf of the child. We have
begged and interceded that child labor
be done away with. We have investi-
gated and given our Investigations
into the hands of voters. After many
years the bill was passed--passed by
the men, the voters. whom we had at
last prevailed upon to do as we
begged of them. Three or four years
ago some of us visited mills where
women work at night. We saw these
night workers go into the mill in the
early evening to work until the next
morning. AT this mill gate we saw a
mother lean down and kiss two little
children good night, after which she
turned and went into the mill and the
children went off in the dark to their
homes There was more than pathos
in the children's kiss, and who can
wonder if there was more than pathos
in those chi,dren's kiss, anH who can
wonder If there was a curse In the
me theirs heart. If woman were voting
today, do you think many mothers
would be working the whole night
through? We were once told In Tren-
