Soldiers a Menace.

Specifically the American forces
were withdrawn at the urgent appeal
of General Carranaa, first chief of the
constitutionalist army, who is in
charge of the executive power in Mex
leo City. Through Paul Fuller, per-
sonal representative of President Will
son in Mexico, General Oarranaa set
forth that the presence of American
troops, instead of being a safeguard
against further revolution and peace
with the United States, constituted a
constant menace to friendly relations.
The Mexican chief contended-and
he was supported by Generals Villa
and Obregon-that the Mexican people
would not understand the continued
presence of American troops on Next
can soil, and would be bound to cher
ish resentment, no matter how well
intentioned the American government
was or how acquiescent the Mexico
City administration itself might be.

At the Theaters

For the coming week, opening sunday
afternoon, the Denham Players viii be
seen in another OF David Belasco's pro-
ductions, ''The Easiest Way by Eugene
Walters, and the greatest oil all Walters
plays. 1t is play that seriously at
tacks phase OF life that has been much
discussed recently in connection with
the wage and social evil. Its lesson is
that a young woman may be driven to
do that against which she revolts and
that circumstances are very often to be
found that show her downfall not to be
her fault. In this play the heroine is
young actress who has been the favor
lite OF very rich man; she meets and
loves a young man, and when he seeks
to wed her she tells him all. He is still
willing to proceed and she goes to New
York to work while he prepares to take
her to his home in the West. He is not
as successful as he might be and she
finds that all doors to employment are
closed against her by her discarded lover
and until she reaches starvation she
waits and hopes for her fiance's return.
He does not come and she finally gives
in to the rich man. and when they are
established in luxurious quarters, her
promised husband comes in just as they
are starting away for the West, the
rich lover denounces her, and she is dis
carded by both men, her exit is to "the.
easiest way"
