A SONG TO BROKEN
RESOLUTIONS

Songs have been sung to the roses that
fade.
To the girls that we've known and the
vows that we've made,
To the things that we've done in the sun
and the shade
And the indiscreet words we have
spoken
But never a song. not so much as a word.
Has any poor mortal we've met ever
heard
That touched in the slightest or even re-
ferred
To the fine resolutions we've broken.
As each of US drifts toward the close of
the year
We're possessed by feeling uncommonly
queer
A sort of kind of yearning right here
You know just the sort Of yearning.
We muse and we think and we ponder
and sigh
AS we dream of the days that have softly
gone by.
Then we sadly determine Improvement to
try,
And a new leaf we find ourselves turn
ing.
We're really angelic perhaps for week;
With bliss beatific our friends say We
reek:
So sanity we grow that we feel like
freak.
And we really begin to get FESTIVE.
Then we meet some old sinner who's out
for time.
And we deem just one tipple no very
great crime,
And-ah. what's the use of prolonging the
rime?-
We get home in a state rather festive.
And that is what comes of our leaf turned
anew.
Having broken it once. we feel free to
pursue
The same old routine that our callow
days knew,
Though our consciences give US rak-
ing
# the questions in order I'd like to in
quire
Why men will taboo things they really
desire
When they know in their hearts they'll
be cutting the wire
And the vows they are making be break
ing?

 Distribution of cartridges at Chi huahua has been lavish. This is said to indicate that the army of Villa is in condition to- undergo a protracted campaign in the field even before the capture of Tampfco which is counted on to give the rebels port of entry which will be independent of foreign regulations of shipments.
 The federal garrison at Saltilio orig finally consisted of 2.200 men, but the fugitives from the remnants of Nelss- co.'s Torreon army and the fleeing gar rison of Monterey have increased that force to 10000. The present federal line of defense runs through Zacate- cas, Saltillo and Tampico. Zacatecas already is invested by General Natera, who is said to have the federal garri- son effeetually bottled. Rebel officers are confident that Tampico soon will fall.
 General velasco now is in Mexico City and the identity of the command CT of the federal forces at Saltillo is unknown here. San Pedro is expected to be the rebel base for the operations against Saltillo. The railroad line from that point now has been opened to Hipolotos
 It is estimated that the rebel forces have 30 field guns. but it is reported that the supply of ammunition for this branch of the service is extremely linn ited- The supply of rife ammunition at the disposition of the rebels is esti- mated by foreign army officers at 400 rounds per man.

BALTIC HOTEL
 IS BURNING
Fire That Broke Out Early This Morn ing Threatens to Spread to 1Adioin- ing Property.

Fire broke out in the Baltic hotel about 33o this morning from an un- known cause. The flames spread with great rapidity and shortly afterwards help was asked of the Norwich fire department
 At that time it was reported that the hotel would be a total loss and the Academy of the Holy Family was threatened, and unless help was se- cured from here the Academy and the nearby property would be destroyed.
 The fire was still confined to the hotel at that time, but residents of the village feared that the fire could not be prevented from spreading to other property.
 At $50 the Norwich autochemical left here for. the scene of the fire.
 One of the houses threatened was the residence of ex-Representatiye Raymond J. Jodoin, which is on the next lot to the hotel.
 At 4 o'clock it was reported from the home of MT. Jodoin that the fire was still confined to the hotel, which would be total loss. The autochemical from this city had not yet reached there. The Baltic freighters were doing valiant work in keeping the fire from spreading.

HuERTA TO ACCEPT OFFER OF PROPOSAL FOR ARMisTIcE. Pending Efforts of Peace Envoys to
 Effect a Settlement

Washington, 4 pril 30-General Hu- erta tonight accepted the proposal that there be no further hositlities between the United States and Mex leo pending the efforts of the enyoys of Argentina, Brazil and Chile to bring about an amicable settlement of difficulties between the countries
 This was announced late today by Secretary Bryan after he had been in conference for two hours with the three South American diplomats at the Argentine legation. At the same time MT Bryan said he already formally had notified the mediators that the American government took it for granted that there would be no hos tilities during the mediation proceed tngs and had intended no further acts of aggression while the conferences were being held"
 No Word From Carranza.
 With these replies before them, the envoys were prepared to go ahead with their peace rules so far as the United States and the Huerta gov ernment are concerned. No word had come from General Carranza, how ever, concerning proposed armistice between the constitutionalists and federals in Mexico. Upon the rebel chiefs answer depends largely the plans of the mediators for undertaking a peaceful settlement of the whole Mexican problem, internal strife as well as the differences between the United States and the Huerta regime
 News from Chihuahua that Gener- al Carranza and General Villa were pushing ahead their southward move ment and p1 eparing for a general at- tack upon Tampico threw a damper upon the hopes for peace between the warning Mexican factions.
 Secretary Bryan left the legation shortly before midnight and the three mediators continued their confer ences.

No Hope for
 Buried Miners
FIFTY BODIES LOCATED IN MINE
 NEAR EccLEs. W. VA.
NUMBER MISSING IS 172
A Majority of the Bodies Are Badly
 6urned-Biown by Explosion from
 Interior to Main Passaseway to Shaft.

Eccles. W. Va, April 30.-Hope that any of the 172 men caught in Mine No. of the New River Galleries company wrecked by e gas and dust explosion Tuesday, are alive. was abandoned ab- solutely tonight by government and state experts At g o'clock fifty bodies had been located.
 A majority of the bodies are said to be badly burned and apparently to have been blown by the explosion from the mine interior to the main passage leading to the shaft. It is believed no additional bodies will be found near the mouth of the mine and that many of the other victims are buried under heavy debris.
 A thorough search is being retarded by falls of rock and timbers. and by three feet of water. Electrical pumps are being installed as rapidly as pos sible to clear away the water.
 As rescue parties penetrated the mine today their hopes of taking out any of the men alive dwindled rapidly The condition of the bodies located; 1; the water and the wreckage that blocked passages and rooms made it evident that all the miners had per ished
 When the word spread that many bodies were being found. the whole population of Eccles and hundreds of persons from surrounding communi- ties rushed to the scene. Several at tempts were made to break through the ropes and miners. sworn in as deputy sheriffs, held back the crowd with difficulty.
 Two crews from the government res- cue cars, equipped with oxygen tanks, went into the mine tonight to make a complete search.
 The shaft was cleared early today and a party of government men. head ed by Chief Engineer J. s. Paul of the Pittsburgh station, entered the mine itself. The glimmering light of their safety lamps revealed the pres ence of half dozen bodies, fright fully burned near the bottom of the shaft.
 the explorers went on, but it was de- cided not to remove them until a tenn porary morgue had been arranged
 The rescuers worked in two hour shifts. but progress was slow. All the men were equipped with oxygen hel- nets and some of them carried canary birds to detect more readily the pres- ence of gas in the inner workings The air, however, was reported very good and no danger from that direction was anticipated. although Director Holmes would not allow the men to undertake any unnecessary risk.
 During the day. Charles P Neill, former federal commissioner of labor, arrived from New York. He is in charge of welfare work for the Gug- genheim interests and arranged to give permanent relief to- the dependnts of tn men killed
