The Mexican consul, Senior Albert Co
doy. when asked If it were true that an
organized body Of 5000 women had vol
unteered to fight the Americans said
there was no organization embracing any
such large number of women, but that
there were many groups of a certain
class that entered the army as fearlessly
as did the mythical Amazons. and fought
and gave no quarter to their enemies.
The revolution seems to have thrust
rocket into the blood of these woman
volunteers. many of whom are from the
hills, where the primitive still reigns,"
said the young consul, who has recently
come back from trip to Mexico.
Ever since the civil strife began" he
continued. women have led battalions
OF men here and there along lonely roads
and in the villages close by the foothills

woman, whose husband had been killed

arms like enlisted soldiers, and endured
hardships which would kill woman of
the higher classes OF their country. Late
ly, when 1t seemed that war might be
declared between the United States and
Mexico the number was reported to have
grown to several times 200.
They are principally native Indians,
with perhaps strain of Spanish or
French blood. and the spirit of battle

woman of class in Mexico has been seen
In the revolution on either side. There
have been a great many reports concern
ing these volunteers and no mention has
been made of this distinction. AS said
before. the desire to become a soldier
often springs from the moment when the
woman's husband Is killed and she takes
up his rifle to open fire on those who
shot him down. Again. Of course, nurses
appearing on the battlefield decide to
adopt military life.
"One such was a woman the rebels

seemed that the cutter must break from

THE ancient drinking vessels for
wines and ales were those made
from skins of animals, and In
certain parts of the world these
primitive devices still retain their
popularity. In many cases these yes
sells were made Of carefully tanned
hides that were unbreakable- and pos
sessed everlasting properties.
In England the blackjacks. celebrated
in song and story, were shaped like
pitchers, and were fashioned from one
large piece of leather curled in the
necessary manner. Pitch was smeared
over the inside. The old blackjacks
gave their name to the heavy riding
boots worn by cavaliers, which. in
time, came to be called 1ackboots By
reason of the popularity Of the black
jacks the French were wont to de-
clare that the English drank out of
their boots.
A jack of immense size was called a
lombard, because Of its resemblance
to the cannon of the time. He who
could dispose Of lombard of wine
at a sitting was deemed a formidable
man indeed.
These hides have practically disap-
peared from England. but in France
and Italy they are much esteemed to
this day. Certain wines. it is declared.
