THE MEXICAN SITUATION.
Topic of Address Before Woman's Club
 by Denys P. Myers.

At the regular meeting of the Willi- mantle Woman's club held at their rooms on Main street Tuesday after noon the speaker was Denys P. Myers ton. His subject was What the Mexi- can Situation Means. There was no business session. and the speaker was introduced by Mrs. c. A. Capen, chair man of the programme committee. Lunch was served at the conclusion of the interesting talk.
 MT. Myers gave a resume of the Mexican situation, which he said was a conflict between a ruling class, one or another of whom found his way into by money to spend in Paris whenever someone else should come along to drive him out, and the broader democ- racy.
 The speaker did not touch, however, on the social and economic questions which underlie the Mexican trouble, but contented himself with recounting the diplomatic side of the present con- troversy, expressing himself as dissat- isfied with the qualifications of John Lind for the important position in which he was placed, and criticizing his action in laying his instructions be- fore Huerta's cabinet. If he had pro- ceeded to get the parties together first, said the speaker, the elimination of Huerta and Carranza would have fol- lowed as matter of course.
 The presidents policy of "watchfu1 waiting" was stated to be a new de- psar--...-se- for the normal course in inter national relations Is to accept facts as they are, and Huerta was the de facto ruler.
 The blame in the Tampico incident was laid at the door of the paymaster who was so careless as to run out of gasoline in the harbor and land at wharf which was being fired upon by the rebels, in order to replenfsh his supply. Even after Admiral Mayo's ultimatum had been refused, things would probably have been all right, said MT. Myers, if the state depart ment hadn't interfered and 'sbutted in.'' The demonstration of force was out of all proportion to the necessities of the case, said he.
 Tho speaker concluded with a guess that the mediation. the events leading to which upon the diplomatic side were explained from the inside, would ap- pear to be wrecked dozen times with in month, but the chances were that they would get over the snags and reach satisfactory conclusion. which means the elimination of the heads of both factions.

 Permission was granted the Veter- ans association of the 21st Conn. Vols. to use the rooms of the association on the occasion of their meeting May 15th.
 Principal H. T. Burr for the commit tee on the prizes aggregating s10 of fered by the board for the children of Windham in the egg mass contest, re- ported the names of those who de- stroyed over 1000. He said that prob destroyed by the town children.

Presi- dent Arnold and the entertainment committee were appointed to make up the necessary committees for that event. Two delegates will be invited from each association in the state. to awaken agricultural interest through out the state.
 President Arnold then introduced the speaker of the evening. Town Clerk and Treasurer Frank P. Fenton, who spoke of the finances of the town; City Clerk and Treasurer A. C. Scripture. who told of the city's finances. and Mayor Daniel P. Dunn, who talked on the subject of the elimination of poles on the streets of the city.
 Both MT. Fenton and Mir. Scripture gave very interesting facts as to the changes in the town and city, and an- swered questions at the end of their interesting talks.
 Mayor Dunn said he believed in the elimination of the poles on the main streets. as is done in many other cities. At any event, there should be but one line of poles and they should be uni form and slightly. Beauty safety and convenience all call for the elimina- tion. Mayor Dunn said he thought the companies could be compelled under the laws to use underground conduits A committee of the common council had been appointed to take up the matter with the proper officials in re- gard to tho elimination. He did not wish to add expense to the large amount needed to run the town and city. but agitation should be started with the end that the poles be elim- mated in a few short years

Why Tree. Liv. Through the Winter.

The question why trees are not kill ed by the cold of winter has been talk en up bv Dr. M. A Winkier in the Umschau. There has been in this matter always the greatest puzzle be- cause for example. the bud that has lived through the cold and frost of the snowy season will after some develop ment be destroyed by a later but com paratively insignificant frost Dr. Winkler believes that trees develop a resistance to the cold. He finds by experiment that there is a, lethal point in degrees of cold for the wood of trees and their buds. In the winter this may be in the neighborhood of zero. Fahrenheit. On the other hand. leaves have a death point at a much higher temperature, but still below freezing. The action of budding is one that to some extent makes the bud. which was in the class of the wodd before it started. afterwards in the class with leaves, and the less degree is then fatal to it.
 There are some technical features to this investigation which is in a line of work of great importance The reaastAnce that is acquired with thA
