Bic OIL FIRE
n."'''[:AR NJ: THE FIELDS
Soe4>
CREEKS THAT'r q WASTE
OIL RESEMBLL WINDING,
SMOKING VOLCANOES

The thirty or forty thousand barrels
of oil that were washed out of the
earthen dams in the oil fields Sat
urday were set on fire yesterday as
the oil flowed on top of the water
down the creeks.
A dense smoke rose from the oil
fields, and the smell of the burning
oil filed the air for miles. 1t was
feared that railway and county
bridges would be burned and the
Ringing railway people hurried a
crew of men to the fields on a spec
ial work train to protect their
bridges. The county commissioners
were busy in seeing to the protection
of the county property. Reports re-
ceived by The Ardmoreite indicate
that no property loss was sustained,
although there might have been some
losses that were not reported.

A Modern Robin Hood.

Bagdad, May "A modern Robin
Hood, who selects tax gatherers as his
victims is operating near Nejef. The
Vail has been out in the Nejef and
Kerbela districts collecting taxes from
the tribes and recently he sent by
post to Bagdad 1000 liras of the
amount he had collected. Between
Majef and Karbela the post, guarded
by one gendarme only, was attacked
apparently by adherents OF the tribes
from whom the taxes were collected.
The money was taken from the mail
bags and returned to the people. The
Vail has again resumed his task and
is said to have recovered 5000 liras
of the lost taxes and guarantees for
the remainder.

said he might make an announce

Despite the fact that Carranza,
the rebel chief, yesterday refused
to agree to an armistice with Huerta
the mediators are hoping that the
events of the next few days will
broaden negotiations so as to in

1t is reported that Carranza may
agree to an armistice if he takes
Saltillo. Huerta's statement that he
will resign is not taken seriously
in Huerta's circle. Huerta said his
desire was to bring the whole mat
ter to a speedy end.

DEATH COMES TO
GENERAL S|CKLES
HAD CHECKERED cAREER-sERV
ED IN CONGRESS, IN DIPLOMAT.
IC SERVICE. SOLDIER OF WAR.

New York, May General Daniel
+. Sickles died at his home shortly af-
ter nine o'clock last night.
General Daniel Edgar Sickles was
the last of the great commanders who
fought the battle of Gettysburg. For
decade he was a fighter by profess
sion-all his life he was a fighter
by nature.
The gruff old warrior, with one leg
shot away in battle his massive head
resembling Bismarck's, was a pictur-
esque figure as he hobbled along on
crutches during the last half century
of his turbulent life.
|, His indomitable fighting spirit re-
mained to the last. Born in New York
City in 1925. Sickles. at the age of
22, fought the Wings as a democrat in
the New York legislature. At 2S, he
displayed his fighting spirit as cor
poration attorney of New York. 1t was
he who secured for his city its great
Central Park. At this time his mill
tary career began as major of the 18th
regiment national guard, New York.
Before he was 80 years old, Major
Sickles had served as secretary of le-
cation at London under Minister Jas.
Buchanan; he had won a state SEN
atorship through a bitter campaign;
and he was seated in the Thirty-fifth
congress at Washington.
1t was at this time that an event
occurred which became the sensation
of the day. Sickles had begun his
second term as congressman in 1859
when the national capital was stirred
by the news that the young represen-
tative from New York had shot and
killed Philip Barton Key, the United
States District attorney for the Dis
trict of Columbia. Sickles declared
that Key had misled Mrs Sickles who
was Therese Bagioli, daughter Of an
Italian music teacher. The trial lasted
20 days, ending in the acquittal of
Sickles on the ground of "unwritten
law" He then took his errlng wife
back.
81 am not aware of any statute or
code of morals" said Sickles to his
critics, (which makes it infamous to
forgive a woman. can now see in the
almost universal denunciation with
which she is followed to my threshold,
the misery and peril from which l
have rescued the mother Of my daugh-
ter. I shall strive to prove to all that
an erring wife and mother may be for
given and redeemed"
Mrs. Sickles died of a broken heart
a few years later.
At the outbreak of the Civil War,
the young fighting politician, then sc
years old, went to Lincoln to offer his
services.
"You have been a leader in New
York democratic politics." said the
president "If you kept your end up
at that game, surely you'll do to take
command of men in the field. Raise
Your regiments and you shall be brig
adier.general in command"
Sickles raised the famous Excel
sior Brigade in New York taking COM
mand of one of its regiments as colo
mel. Lincoln kept his word and in
1861 raised him to brigadiergeneral.
His fighting spirit early won him his
spurs.

THEN
ana

One hundred and twenty years ago
today occurred the events which re-
suited in an insurrection for the in
dependence of Ireland. At midnight of
that day Dublin was in an uproar. The
doors of local legislative reform club
Il branch of the United Irishmen So
ciety, burst open with a crash. In ttle
doorway stood the scarlet-coated col
diers of the King covering the as
sembled lrishment with their guns.
The leaders were arrested and carried
off to Jail for treason. From this mo-
ment dates the insurrection that was
fought out four years later. Ireland
was flooded with government troops,
but the Society grew rapidly. Oaths
of membership and secrecy were ad-
ministered. Pixies and munitions of
war were secretly distributed and
hidden for the uprising The Society
had over 100000 members at the be-
ginning of 1898. Stern measures to
stamp out the rebellion were insti-
tuted. The insurrection began near
Spafford on the 9th of May. 1t ragged
for a month, closing in the battle of
Vinegar Hill, with victory for the gov
ernment. The rebellion cost the lives
of 10000 Irishmen and 10000 English.
Three years later the Irish parliament
was removed from Dublin and united
with the English at London.

NOW

Today, after more than a century un-
der the rule of the parliament at Lon
don, it is proposed to restore the Irish
parliament taken away in 1901, and to
give Ireland home rule. The country
is split in two over the proposition
The province of Ulster at the north
declares against the proposal, while
the balance of Ireland demands it.
The house of commons has twice pass
ed the bill, and the third passing,
when the bill becomes law, is near.
More than 100000 men of Ulster stand
in defiance against the proposed gov
ernment. They are organized into a
citizens army with some of Great
Britain's greatest soldiers as their
leaders. They are drilling and learn
ing to shoot straight. Munitions of
war are being gathered. A fund of $5,
100000 is being raised for the sup
port of "the dependent relatives of
the volunteers who may be wounded
or killed in the fighting" The leaders
of the government are striving to
avert civil war by conciliatory meas
ures. More than 25,OOO British troops
are assembled today in the govern
ment barracks in Ulster to put down
any uprising.

Change Foreshadowed

The resignation of Jose Lopez Por-
tillo Rojas, the foreign minister,
coupled with reports that there is q
growing undercurrent of feeling in
the City of Mexico against the Hnerta
government, is interpreted here as
foreshadowing a change in the situa-
tion in the federal capital.
Close observers here of the govern
ments situation believe Senor Por-
tillos resignation may clear the way
eventually for the appointment of a
foreign minister who under the MeXi-
can constitution could succeed Gen.
Huerta as president. 1t is pointed out
that while Venustiano Carranza de-
clined to treat with Gen. Huerta, he
might consent to enter into negotia-
tions with his successor and thus ia
cilitate mediation.
Continued Constitutionalist success
es in the north and the outcome of
the attack on Tampico, may, according
to well-informed opinion, bring about
a rapid change in the City of Mexico.
Deception Becoming Known.
While the federal capital was report
ed quiet today, refugees arriving here
from the seat of government declared
the populace there was beginning to
learn that Gen. Huerta had been de-
coiying the people all the time by
issuing false reports of fe6eral sue
cesses over the Constitutionalists.
News of the peaceful way in which
the Americans are occupying Vera
Cruz, it is said has spread to the cap
ital and has convinced MeXicans there
that the American invasion of the
port is not for conquest or aggression.
Refugees declare the capitals inhab-
itants fear the coming there of Fran
cisco Villa more than that of the
American troops.
Elements in the City of Mexico,
which cling to the memory of the
late President, Francisco |. Madero,
are reported to have been incensed by
the arrest of deputies, who were cast
into Jail on changes of conspiracy.
