His Authority Recognized.

Villas relations with the constitution

of comment. He publicly disavowed the
manifesto in which Gen. Carranza in
vited President Wilson to get the Amer
lean military forces out of Vera Cruz
At. the same time he announced his al
legiance to CarranZa as supreme chief
Whatever differences have arisen be-
tween the two leaders thus far have
been thrashed out in private.
Carranza's associates point out that
his authority as first chief Of the con-
stitutionalist government is recognized
not simply by Villa. but by other mill
tary commanders who are Independent of
Villa.
Gen. Obregon, in command of the forces
in the Pacific coast states Of Sonora and

of which Tampico is the seaport.

by Jury.

A verdict for $1,000 damages for the
death of Daniel Turner has been as
sessed against the District of Columbia

Justice Anderson. The verdict was

Though Attorneys Wilton j. Lambert
and R. H. Yeatman, the administra-
tors. showed that Turner. who was sew
enty-two years old and weighed over
300 pounds, accidentally struck against
a fence at the side Of the culvert on
Nichols avenue near Sumner road Sep
TENDER s, 1911. The fence gave way
and he was precipitated into the Gull
vert and killed.
The District claimed the object Of plac.
ing the fence was merely as an indica-
ton Of danger and that Turner had
leaned against it and his excessive weight
had caused the barricade to break. AS
sistant Corporation Counsel Whiteford
appeared for the defense.

Constitutionalist Money.

other function that was declared to be
an attribute of constitutional govern
ment and was exercised without UNI
necessary delay.

maintained by most Spanish-Ameri,G,a an
| La Constitutionalista, and contains the
various DEGREES and orders.
| Cabinet positions in the generally ac-
cepted meaning have not been filled.
| though mention Is frequently made OF
| the provisional cabinet and of Gen. Car
| ranza's cabinet. But for reasons OF
political expediency only one full-fedg-
! ed cabinet member has been named.
The other members of the official fam
| lily. while acting in an advisory ca acity
| and performing executive functions, are
| considered as heads Of divisions or

Gen. Carranza has been his own min
lister Of foreign relations, and has
been very tenacious in his efforts to
secure some sort of official recognition
from foreign governments.
Not False Dignity.
am informed that 1t has not been on
account of any false dignity that such
stiff attitude has been maintained in
dealing with the State Department, but
because there was a principle to be OBJ
served and the constitutionalist gov
eminent could not stultify itself by
| seeming to forego that principle
Hence it was only as a concession
that the demand that consular officers
Of European countries deal directly
with the Carranza government was
foregone and their representatives re-
ceived through the State Departments

Candelmas in the Hebrides.
From the London Chronicle.

F rom The London thronltIe
On Candlemas day. which is today, the
inhabitants of the Hebrides observe the
following peculiar custom: The mistress
and servants of each family take sheaf
of oats and dress it up in women's ap-
parel and put it in large basket. near
which they lay a wooden club. This they
call Bruds bed Then the mistress and
servants cry three times. "Brud is come;
BNld is welcome.' This they do Just be-
fore going to bed. Rising in the morn
ing. they look among the ashes on the
hearth, expecting to see the impressions
of Bruds club there, which. il they do.
they consider it a true presase OF good
crop and prosperous year The contrary
they take to be an ill omen.

Paint Should Be Used.

Posts may be set or driven into the
ground They should be set to 10 feet
apart with common poultry netting. or
1f to ~ feet with woven wire. Corner
posts should be about inches in
diameter. and be set feet in the ground
while intervening posts may be or ;
inches in diameter and set 5 feet in the
ground. That part of the post which is
set in the ground may be charred or
treated with some wood preservative to ad-
vantage. While corner posts should be
firmly braced or set in cement.
All buildings and appliances on a poul-
try farm will be improved greatly in ap-
pearance and serviceability by the ad-
dtion of paint. All surfaces should be
clean and dry before they are painted.
Use a printing coat made of equal parts
of paint and lnseed oil and cover with
one or more coats of paint, which should
be thoroughly rubbed into the surface.
Whitewash is the cheapest of all paints
and may be used either for exterior or
interior surfaces. 1t can be made by
shaking about ten pounds of qulckllme
in a pail with two gallons of water,
covering the pail with cloth or burlap.
and allowing it TO slake for one hour.
Water is then added to bring the white
wash to a consistency "nlch ludS Nc ap-
piled readily.
A weatherproof whtewash for exterior
surfaces may be made as follows: %
Stake one bushel of quicklime in twelve
gallons of hot water. ca dissolve Two
nounds of common salt and one pound
of sulphate of zine in two gallons OF Doll
ing water pour t2p into %, then add two
gallons of skim milk and mix thoroughly.
Whitewash is spread lightly over the sur
face with a broad brush.
