WOMEN OF THE MEXl-
CAN ARMY.
!. :. :. = : :. :. :. :. :. :. :. :. :. :. :. :.

The women who accompany the
Mexican army are generally Of the In
dian type, totally uneducated, un-
speakably dirty, and apparently quite
content to undergo physical hardships
for the sake of beirg with their mas
ters. Now use the word masters ad-
visedly for 1t accurately expresses the
relationship of Mexican women to
Mexican men. The loyalty of the SOL
dier's wife is more akin 60 that of a
dog to it's master than that Of an in
telligent woman to her mate. She
expects TO do the hard work and to be
cuffed about for her pains, Her BRAY
cry (for frequently she follows her
husband into battle) is the bravery Of
stupidity that does not recognize dan
ger. Popular superstition, abroad at
least. pictures the Mexican woman as
a second sister To the Spanish dancer
nervous, passionate, a charmer, with
a dagger hidden in her corsage. Moth
ing could be further from the truth, as
expressed by the inmates of novels, by
the shiftless creatures walking the
streets and standing in stolid content
ment if a band is in the plaza to en-
tertain them, and by the servants Of
the soldiers who go to war.
Their features are heavy, their eyes
eXpressionless and seldom do they give
any indication of the imagination
without which dread of impending
danger does not exist. They are not
fighting for a cause. Not one i'm twcn-
ty-flve can give even the most frag-
mentary explanation of the rebellion,
and this applies to the men as well as
the women.

NAVY OFFICERS DIPLOMATS

FLETCHER MEN WHO SHAP-
ED COURSE OF U. S.

Newport, r. l., July 15.-How the
nations foreisn policy often hangs up
on the action and discretion of a naval
officer commanding a warship i'm far
away port, was discussed by Secretary
Daniels at the opening of the naval
war college session.
lie pictured the duties of the naval
officer i'm the role of diplomat, recalled
incidents i'm which commanders of Am
erican warshps i'm foreign ports had
opened new chapters in American his
tory, and urged officers at the college
in international law and the languages
in preparation for such emergencies.
The navy, in the technical diplo-
matte sense" said the secretary, must
leave to the department Of state the
settlement of international policies,
and properly so. But. i'm the practical
operations of policies affecting other
nations, the action Of the youngest ma
val officer commanding the smallest
vessel in a foreign port might determ-
inc the action of our government, in
dependent of the policies which the
trained diplomats might have planned.
May Aid the World
III he be uniformed as to the re-
quirements of international law. what
consequences of evil may flow from
his ignorance. II he lack tact and
sense of courtesy, how he may block
the path Of his country to serve the
people to whom he is sent and prevent
the opening of doors through which
his countrymen might enter to pro-
mote commerce, friendliness and ami
ty."
There has been no secretary Of
state" Mr.. Daniels said, "who has
aVailod himself more of the service of
the naval officer as a diplomat who
has shown greater confidence in his
ability, his judgment. and his absolute
truthworthiness.' than had Secretary
Bryan"
He recalled the demand made for a
salute Of the Stars and Stripes by Ad-
miral Mayo at Tampico as an example
Of how the action of a naval officer in
n foreign country precipitated IAN is
sue not contemplated in diplomatic
channels, and irrevocably committed
his government To policy of action in
support of his demand" Perry's
achievement in the opening Of Japan
to commerce, Dewey's brilliant victory
and his administration in Philippine
waters. and finally Rear Admiral
Flctcher's occupation of Vera Cruz
were pointed to by the secretary as
conspicuous instances Of the double
service required of the American naval
officer abroad.
Can Command Respect.
There is very recent PROOF that Per-
ry was a true prophet when he fore
saw friendship between the United
states and Japan. In the present Mex
lean trouble the Japanese have been
scrupulous to prevent the shipment of
arms by japanese manufacturers.
when you stop to think of it," said
the secretary, mo representative of our
government. official or unofficial, can
command such respect or can impress
