SPIkS AND LIZARDS /
SENTRY SPOTS ONE
BY FRED L. BoALT
Vera Cruz, Mex.-I mounted my
horse and rode out along the out
posts. At length I came to a sentry
seated on a sandbag entrenchment on
the summit of O6-kilometer hill.
I sat down beside him and be told
me about a girl in Philadelphia.
Did you ever hear" l asked about
a man named Lord Cowdray?"
mo-" said the sentry, 81 can't say
that l ever did. How would 1 be
knowing one of them foreign wops
with handles to their names?"
Lord COwdray," l explained, sis
a wealthy Englishman who is largely
interested in the oil industry in Mex
ico."
"So?" said the sentry, but without
interest, and added: "Ain't this hell
of country"
6O6-kilometer hill frowns down
upon an expanse of rolling sand, and
the trails which cross it become lost,
finally, in scrub underbTush. Beyond
that are the foothills, and, still farther
away, the snOw-capped mountains.
At our back lay Vera Cruz and the
feet at anchor in the roadstead.
81 believe" said the sentry, 'T see
another of spiks, and
pointed.
I saw three dots far away. When
they drew nearer l saw that the first
dot was a peon on donkey. He was
leading two burros the size of goats.
Slung to each burTo were two bas-
kets.
He's only a charcoal burner, most
likely" said the sentry, but III
stop him, anyhow"
what is a 'spik'?' 1 asked.

)ON'T WORRY GRINGQ
AND STEPS ON OTHER
he said. Its the heat that's making
you nutty."
A lizard darted across the sentry's
feet. suppose it was hunting flies.
With a dexterous movement the SEN
try planted a foot on the lizard and
crushed out it's life.
Got you that time" he said, and
laughed.
It's fine to be a Lord Cowdray or a
Rockefeller, but it's tough to be a
sentry, "spik" or lizard
The "spik" and his burTos were
plOdding toward us up the hill. A tall,
spindling structure, far away, caught
my eye, and asked the sentry what
it might be.
"On derrick" he said, and rose to
halt the "spik."
The charcoal burner hated and
feared the sentry. The sentry had
for the charcoal burner a fine con-
tempt. To one the other was a
despised "spik." To the other the
one was a hated "gringo."
whats in the baskets?"
The charcoal burned grimaced,
shrugged his shoulders and broke in
to voluble speech.
"Shut up! I don't know what
you're talking about, anyhow"
There was nothing in the baskets
but charcoal. There was nothing in
the pockets of the "spik" but a gaudy
and dirty handkerchief.
BEAT it," said the sentry.
The charcoal burner mounted and
drove his bare heels hard against the
lean ribs of his donkey.
''Mucha gracios, senor," he said,
politely. Adois!"

NEW MOVE is MADE
IN FRANK MURDER CASE
Motion for Retrial to Be Filed Day
Before Execution
Date.

ATLANTA, March 27.-Notice that an
extraordinary motion for a new trial for
Leo M. Frank. under death sentence for
the murder of Mary Phagan, will be illed
April IL, the day before that set for the
young factory superintendent execution,
was served on the superior court here
today. The notice was accompanied by a
copy of the forthcoming extraordinary
motion, which alleges that new evidence
favorable to Frank has been discovered
since his conviction seven months ago.
Many affidavits are included in the copy
of the motion. Several of these, signed
by witnesses at the trial of Frank. allegc
that the atlantis testified falsely against
the accused man. Others charge con-
spiracy of evidence against Frank and
others attempt to establish an alibi for
him. An effort also is made to prove that
the notes found beside the factory girls
body were written in the basement of
the National Pencil factory, not in the
office of Frank, as James Conley, negro
factory sweeper and chief witness against
the convicted superintendent testified.

CHICAGO, March 27.-Scantiness of
moisture beyond the Missouri river put
firmness today into the price Of wheat.
The fact that cables were steady

There seemed to be no selling pres

the same as last night to y higher.
and gradually rose to moderate ex-
tent.
Trade in corn was active. though
mainly in small lots. Commis ion
houses were for the most part on the
buying side. with shorts inclined to
cover. The market at the outset varied
from isaH off to a shade advance. but
aftcrward made an upturn all around.
Oats showed a disposition to follow
corn. Changes in price. however. were
only slight.
In provisions the influence of liberal
