SUMMARY OF MEXICAN SITUATION.

With the capture Of Tampico by the
constitutionalits it is expected that
Huerta will soon be overthrown, par
ticularly as Zapata is within few
miles of the city. The Americans
have all left Tampico and but few are
now in Mexico City. The British and
Germans have taken refuge in the
British legation, where they are pre-
pared to resist any attack made upon
them.
Tampico was taken after several
days of the fiercest fighting of the
revolution. The rebels had secured
artillery an dwere placed upon an
equal footing with the federals.
Huerta has protested to the medi-
ators because the United States has
seized the island of Lobos on which
is a lighthouse. Huerta had ordered
that the light be extinguished
National tribute was paid the ma
rines and soldiers who were killed in
the fighting at Vera Cruz on the ar
rival of the bodies at New York The
seventeen fag-draped coffins were
landed at Battery Park, New York,
from which point the parade started.
At the City Hall 800 school children
sang Nearer, My God, to Thee" The
final ceremonies were held at the
Brooklyn navy yard. President Will
son had gone from Washington to
take part n the ceremonies. He rode
in the parade and stayed until the
end.
Richard Harding Davis and other
correspondents arrested by Huerta IS
orders have been released.
Frederick w. Lehman of st. Louis,
solicitor in the state department under
President Taft, and Joseph Rucker
Lamar, associate justice of the su-
preme court, have been designated by
President Wilson as representatives

DR.. William ]. Robinson of New
York City, editor Of several medical
publications and president of the
American Society of Medical Sociol-
ogy, declares that piano playing is
one of the best cures for nervous
ness; in fact, real preventive.
David" he says, did excellent
work when he soothed Saul's murder
Gus propensities with the aid of selec-
tons on the harp, but more good
would have been accomplished If he
could have prevailed upon Saul to
take lessons from him and play the
harp himself.
"A tuneful melody, a satisfying
chord, detracts the nervous persons at
tention from the cause of his worry
A dreamy mood is induced in which
the little tragedies of life no longer
appear quite so gruesome or so over
whelming."

ALASKAN RAILROAD
COMMISSION NAMED

Washington Especially With the
appointment of Lieut.. Frederick
Mears and William C. Edes as men,
bers of the Alaska engineering COM
mission, another long step in the dI-
rection of a successful government
railroad in the northern territory has
been taken.
The commission to which the two
men have just been appointed is to
have charge of the location of the
new government railroad in Alaska.
Lieutenant Mears was the chief engi-
neer of the Panama railroad and was
suggested for this new work by Colo
mel Goethals. Mr.. Edes was former
ly chief engineer for the Northwest
ern Pacific railroad in California. He
is the man who located and built many
of the most difficult stretches of
mountain railroad for the Santa Fe
and Southern Pacific. Both men will
leave at once for Alaska to begin
their new task.
President Wilson recently received
letter from James Dietrich, rail-
road contractor, who has just COM
pleted large work for the Russian
government in Siberia. Mr.. Dietrich
says the cost of construction and
equipment of the Siberian railroads
exceeds $50O,000,00O, an average of
$25,000 the mile. The trans-Siberian
railroad and it's branches not only
pay, he says, but have furnished
enough in profits of operation to
carry out new construction. He says
Siberia is a country very much like
Alaska, and certainly is no better
place for the location of rail lines.
ALASKA with a railroad starting
from some good harbor and built
across the country to the Bering
straits will serve to open it up and
develop that vast domain, just like
the railroads have been the means of

of the United States with the A B c
mediators.
Fearing zapata's rebels, should
they enter Mexico City, Sir Lionel
Garden, British ambassador, has or
dered all British subjects to leave
Mexico City.
German ships which carried arms
for Huerta to be delivered at Puerto
Mexico, have returned with their car
goes undelivered.
Walter C. Whiffen, representative
of the Associated Press; a Mr.. Sutton,
photographer for the Washington
Post; Oliver M. Hueffer of the London
Express, and another English corre-
spondent named Rourke, were arrest
ed and imprisoned at Mexico City, but
were later liberated after protest by
the British ambassador.
Dr. Ryan, representing the state de-
partment, who was sentenced to death
at Aguascalientes, has reached Puerto
Mexico, and with 600 other American
refugees, has sailed for the United
States.
Huerta is said to have mined the
principal buildings in Mexico City for
the purpose of blowing them up and
wrecking the city when it falls.
While suffering from sunstroke,
Colonel Taggart's orderly, named
Parks, entered the Mexican lines with
two magnificent horses. He is said to
have been executed.
Directly after the occupation of
Vera Cruz, Huerta sent fernando
Farias, Alebrto Gonzales and Eduardo
Alfredo Arizmendi to Zapata to make
overtures for an alliance. AS answer
Zapata killed Farias and Arizmendi
and cut off the ears of Gonzales.
Cuernavaca, forty miles from Mex
! leo City, has been taken by Zapata.

HOUSE INVENTORIES.
Convenient Booklets Issued by the In
surance Companies.


OF the simpler schemes of the In.
surance agents who are always fever
ishly trying to hold old business and
to attract new one of the most sue.
cessful is the issuing of blank book
for use as residence inventory.
This is usually a neatly prepared
booklet of 12 pages, says System.
On the inside of the front cover is a
notice of what to do in case Of fire,
instructions for making an inventory
and appraisal and on the opposite
page are lines for the dates of the
original inventory and three revisions.
On the inside of the back cover are
printed general instructions for plac-
ing insurance, how to give a notice
for additional insurance and what to
do in case Of removal of property.
The twelve pages of the book are each
devoted to room and are ruled to
show the number of articles inven-
toried, and memorandum OF each
article itself, date of purchase, cost
and description.
These inventories cost from six to
seven cents apiece If they are got up
in attractive style, and therefore they
should not be carelessly mailed.

peopling and developing Canada and
Siberia" says Mr.. Dietrich.
"Alaska's wheat and other farm
products will within year after the
railroad is in operation bring in more
revenue to the farmers who will fol-
low the construction of the railroad
than the cost of the railroad. The
crops will increase, mining and other
business proceed with rapid strides,
and there is no doubt that the reve-
nues will meet operating, upkeep costs
and fixed charges and furnish profits
which can be devoted to branch line
construction. Many parts of this vast
domain will soon require rail connec-
tion with the main line"
The original purchase price of
Alaska more than half a century ago
was $7,200,000. The government has
spent, all told, on account of Alaska,
$35 5,S16,674. The production in Alaska
from 1867 to 1911 was $429, ,523, $50.
Revenues of one kind or another paid
| into the federal treasury from Alaska
during this period aggregated ST.
117,354. Since 1911 the value of
Alaskan products has increased suf-
ficiently to make the total more than
half billion dollars. With a rail-
road constructed Gfrom one of the
open harbors on the southern coast
to the interior of Alaska, the annual
production of Alaska should increase
by leaps and bounds.
Alaska is said to have more coal
than Pennsylvania, West Virginia and
Ohio, more copper than Michigan and
Arizona, more gold than California
and Colorado, more tin than Wales
and more fish than all other American
waters combined. The area of tilla-
BILE land in Alaska has been variously
estimated at from 100000 to $780,
900 acres.

Convicted by a Thermometer.

In connection with the death of DR..
Whitelaw of Kirkintilloch, Scotland
an interesting story is told of his
early career. Being called up one
night he was walking along with the
messenger when he was set upon and
knocked down in lonely part of the
road
His pockets were rif1ed and he was
left lying on the road severely in
jured. One of the articles stolen was
clinical thermometer with which he
had that evening taken the tempera-
ture of patient. He remembered
the temperature registered, also that
he had not shaken down the mercury
before putting the thermometer back
in his pocket and he communicated
these facts to the police.
Some time afterward a thermometer
registering the identical temperature
was discovered in a pawnshop in
Glasgow and by this means the police
were enabled to track the doctors az
sailants and to arrest them.

RUNAWAY ERA"
IS REALLY DUE
TO WANOERLUST
Girls and Boys Alike Are
Filled With Desire For
Out of Doors.

WI ITH the coming of the first
wv warm days and the call of the
robins in the hedgerows, there begins
what is known in the juvenile courts
of the great cities as the runaway
era"
Every day there are long lists Of
boys and even girls who have dis
appeared from their homes, leaving
their parents distracted with worry,
and who are usually found not 50
many miles away, enduring the dis
comforts of night out of doors and
the uncertain meals with unconcern,
because they are tasting Of the de-
lights of freedom and wandering. for
which they have longed.
1t is a real wanderlust that fills
the youthful hearts during the spring,
a desire for the unknown, to be out
under the stars and free to roam
where they will, but when they are
brought home they cannot always ex-
plain this Intangible something that
throbs in their little hearts and they
cover it UP with sullen and contra
dtctory statements.
1t isn't only the lads and lassies
whose homes are shadowed by pow
erty, or whose parents are unkind
that run away. Nor is it always big
boys, for the wanderlust creeps into
the hearts of old and young alike,
and the wise mother will prepare for
it and let the children taste of the
joys Of outdoor life as much as pos
sible to keep it from reaching the
point when in sheer desperation they
run away.
All! you grown folks, didn't you
ever, when you were little, sit on the
front step and plan how you would
run away and come back years and
years later" laden with gold and
fame, TO your rejoicing family?
Didn't you ever on the first warm
days, when the trees were budding
and the air was heavy with spring
lassitude, fret at the studies that
kept you indoors and sigh to be up
and away and wandering far afield?
You know you did, so did 1, so did
all of us in whom the spirit of i'm
agination dwells, and, for that rea-
son you must realize that just that
same lure exists for your boys today.
The lure that something that lies
beyond the end of the home street,
beyond the circle of the school and
the homes of his playmates-some-
thing that is called the world" and
which, seen through boyish eyes, is
like the mighty rainbow with the pot
Of gold at the end.
If in pursuit of it they run away.
however, the glamour fades, but then
they are generally afraid to come
home or do not know the way, and
so the grtmy blotters of the police
courts record their names among the
missing.
1t can all be avoided if the wise
mother gives boy or girl chance
to go out into the world Of out Of
doors.
Send them into the woods to search
for the first flowers. Encourage them
to form a little walking club" or
let them have real Indian camp
some place, and cook and mess
about" bonfire and come home dirty
and happy and tired.
After all, the only thing needed is
to keep your own youth in your men,
ory, for no matter how fast the years
slip by, the boys and girls have the
same wistful longings now as we had
in the years of long ago.
