IT, you imagine Mexico as q whale
backed animal sloping down from the
United States border to Central Amer
lea, you get some idea Of its shape and
natural features. AN down the upper
and middle part the back is high. AT
the sides It gradually slopes away, on
one side to the Atlantic; to the Pacific
on the other This explains why the
country has three distinct climates.
Upon the high back are the "cold
land" TERRA fria). not what we
should call cold, for the sun burns.

siye at night, always fresh and bracing.
Then, as tine back slopes. come the
temperate lands" ttierra templadal f,
and after these, along the ocean coasts,
the TERRA caHente" (hot lands), where
in December the sun blazes with real
ferocity, and the heat of summer is
unimaginable by those who have not
felt it.
Russia is something ike Mexico.
The Russia "steppes' really are steps;
but they ascend and descent gradually.
In Mexico there are places where the
descent from the cold to the temperate
lands is almost like falling off house.
There are "barrancas" or gorges into
which you can look down and see tropi

After our marines and seamen had

Their course was cowardly and
treacherous. 1t was in violation cf all
rules governing civilized warfare. But

A LOOSE electric current can make a
great deal Of trouble 1t did in New
York the other day, when eleven thou
sand volts, leaking from feed wire
into the steel frame Of new building,
knocked over sixty workmen. The con
tact started a fire and when the fire
men turned a hose on the blaze, the
men at the nozzle dropped it with yells,
for the current shocked them through
the water. The current came from the
New Haven railroad wires and had to
be shut off before the fire was put out.
Life in a modern city is more compli-
Gated than it used to be, and beset with
more dangers. People in towns from
which the railroads still run their trains
with locomotives propelled by steam
may indulge in the consoling reflection
that while the smoke nuisance has its
drawbacks, it is not 50 fatal as an cleo
trio current on rampage.

The townsite has been filed on as
farming land by three homesteaders,
one Of whom is an Indian woman ana
another young man who is founding
a fox ranch. Dyea, whose post ONCE
was established in 1896, became the
next year the most crowded, lawleas
settlement in the world. The resi-
dents took toll from the men going in
to seek gold and those coming out
with pouches Of the precious stuff.
After completion of the White Pass

its sea terminus, Dyea collapsed and

To my CONSERVATION Mary burst in

something wrong Is it anything I've
done, Mary?"
Now tears always arouse horrible
sense Of guilt in male humanity Fol
one thing, man, unless his expert
ence has been vast, is greatly inclined
to exaggerate the cause of womans
tears. and women cry sometimes as
freely over a broken trinket as they
do over the death of friend. Fol-
another thing, having heard from fem
mime lips that most of the lapses in
the universe are the result of male
stupidity and clumsiness, he feels NOR
ally convinced that his sex in general
is implicated-and himself in particu
lar. This brings him logically to the
stern conviction that, for all he's for
gotten it-with the care-free habit OF
men-his offense has been atrocious
The tears have effectively done foI
him
By dint of much gentle questioning
| ELECTED from Mary the alarming fact
that l had admired a girls hair while
we were driving up the mountain il

To be quite truthful, I'd nearly for
gotten my casual remark.

Mary, looking away. You said heI
hair shone like beautiful copper in the
sunlight"

Mary, l never saw such hair on cir.
in my life. And such quantities o.

And then-stupid dolt! / began to see
Mary was jealous and, trivial as the
cause had been, she had nursed it into
flame.
Mary" said, after an hours pet
ting had brought her again to a sub
dued good humor, do you honestly
mean that you don't expect me ever
TO admire another girls beauty"
II don't like to hear it, Peter
she admitted "At first it simply made
me furious-and then it made me cry
Would you like me to say that some
other man was awfully handsome?"
why not?" ! asked in some aston
ishment Certainly, I'm not foo
enough to think I'm prize winner in
appearance and that you will keel
your eyes glued admiringly on my face
for lifetime-?"
Then you think I'm fool" flashed
Mary. How women pounce upon
mans careless diction and twist il
into mortal affront!
Goodness, no." protested. Mary
do be reasonable. It's this way. Ad
rliration of beautiful thing isn't al
ways personal. Surely, we may some
times admire beauty in others, just as
we admire a beautiful picture or a
beautiful statue, It's the humans in
stinctiYe love Of beautiful things!"
But Mary couldn't see, and before ]
was through I had lied CALAMITY and
told her her hair was more beautiful
than the copper hair of the maid in the
stage-when it wasn't 1t was that

of shoplifting, who said her hands
were paralyzed, yielded little girls
hat and child's dress when she was

women was said to have attempted to
hide tablet under her shawl.
]. H. Collister of Kistler, Collister

pick up the tablet. He had followed
them from his store because several
articles were missed after they had
visited the place. However, none of
the articles described by him were
found upon the women.
The women were not arrested and
as no charge was preferred against
them they were released by the po-

comes operative on February IS.

DIES OF STARVATION

Albuquerque, Sept. 25.-Death, pre-
sumably by starvation, came to Otto
l.. Swenson, formerly timber esti-
mator and mapsman in the forest
service here, in forest near Red
ding, Cal. News of this was received
by his friends here yesterday, Mr..
Swenson left Redding September IA
alone on a hunting trip. His body
was found week later by party
of searchers. The evident fact that
he had not died the day of his leav-
ing Redding and the absence of any
wounds upon the body, led them to
the conclusion that he had become
lost and died from hunger and ex-
hauston. A letter from an Albuquer-
que girl in Mr.. Swenson's pocket led
to the sending information of his
death here. Mr. Swenson left here
about three months ago, having been
transferred from the forset service to
the Indian service. He had applied
for retrausfer to the forest service
it was understood. Mr.. Swenson was
prominent socially in this city He
was 2S years old, but. according to
forest service officials, had shown
marked ability in his work and his
promotion would have been rapid had
he remained here. Mr.. Swenson was
a graduate of the University of Ne
braska. His home was in that state,
and the body was sent there for
burial.

of the case of Melichi, a Montenegrin
VS.. Vergolio, an Italian, for an ac-
counting of the sale of 600 worth of
