it is true that he got his military eX' perience in the American army and then deserted from it, it is certain that he knows enough about Ameri- cans to understand that war with the United States would abruptly termin- ate a war record that has been excep- tionally brilliant,
 The chances are that Carranza has been attempting to boost the import ance of his position as the head of the Constitutionalist government with proclamation and official correspond ence. and that his warfare will not call into action any equipment more formidable than typewriters, unless his hand should be forced by the an ti.American sentiment of his follow CTS.
 With Huerta. also. the fighting forces are likely to be stenographers rather than infantrymen for some time. Unless local sentiment forces him to declare war, or unless he commits some act more in keeping with the methods of of assassin than those of q President and soldier that will make the invasion of Mexico neces- sary. the Mexican situation is likely to drfag. In al probability there will be very little real fighting unless the United States goes after it and hunts the enemy in his holes.
 In the meantime the government at Washington is not losing it's head. It is joining no stampede, but is going ahead in a manner commensurate with the dignity of a great Nation to show clustering military dictators that they cannot play horse with the United States with impunity. On the other hand, it is doing what can be done to impress such intelligence as obtains south of the Rio Grande that it is not it's purpose to engage the theoret- ically sovereign people of Mexico in a general war.

WAR SITUATION.

IT IS altogether likely that Villa is
 in earnest when he says that no
 one can draw him into war with the United States. It is not necessary to believe that he has any particular love for this country, or ethical con ception of the situation to accept this belief. It is only necessary to reason from what We know. Villa has shown that he is the most capable fighting man that has been developed in Mex ico in a long time. He has acted like man who knows what his men can do. and he has made them do it. His performances indicate that he has sut- ficient intelligence to know what would result to his army should he take it against the American army. If

JUNEAU's INTEREST IN BASEBALL
THE enthusiasm and liberallty with
 which tue people of Juneau have

THE enthusiasm and liberalIty with
 which tue people of Juneau have
 gone about to prepare for an in' teresting baseball season is praise worthy. There is no more wholesome sport than baseball provides. It af' lords recreation and diversion as well as entertainment. It gives a commun- ity something to think about and talk about besides the the hundrum of bus mess matters.
 When grown. conservative business men in a city of the dimensions of Ju- neau contribute $4,OOO or $5,OOO for a baseball park. without hope or direct returns, and then contribute actual ser vices while the matrons and young la dies serve meals to those who labor, there is nothing to fear of the health of the public spirit, or the attitude of the citizens toward life in general. Juneau is all right. IL is simply a normal, wide-awake little American city that is rapidly becoming a big city.

Marble Windows,

Remarkably beautiful effects are Sc
cured by the use of marble as
means Of transmitting light instead of
glass. This has been accomplished
by a new process which has been de-
vised by an engineer of Hamburg, w.
Engle. He has succeeded in making
plates of marble no more than three
millimeters in thickness and for the
use designated it is available up to
20 millimeters thick. The suitability
of marble for this purpose was real
lied some time ago, but the difficulty
encountered was that of securing the
marble in slabs of sufficient thinness.
These plates permit of the passage of
greater amount Of light than frosted
glass does, and at the same time i'm
parts to the rays a much pleasanter
color. Most opal glass imparts to the
light an undesirable greenish tinge,
while the light which passes through
the marble has reddish violet which
is much pleasanter. After the marble
has been ground down to the desired
thickness it is subjected to an INNER
sion in oil under high pressure, and
the effects secured in this manner are
said the superior to those of stained
glass.

RASH ON FACE SPREAD

Granton, Wis.-"My sister had a
very bad, deep, wet, running sore on
the side Of her face and it ran up to
her ear. It commenced with small
blotch of pimples which turned into
kind Of rash and spread rapidly. 1t
itched and looked red and sore for
some time and slightly swelled. A
thin fluid dripped and ran from the
sores which looked like water. Then
the swelling would go down and it
would keep on spreading. 1t bothered
her during sleep and she would be
restless. 1t was kind of eczema.
"She treated for some time and 1t

GET WIRELESS BY BEDSPRING
Novel Form of Antennae and
Is Successful.

Cyrus H. Flandreaux of Peekskill,
n. Y, gives the following interesting
account of his experiments with a
novel form of antennae for wireless
telegraphy:
There are many things used as an
tennae to catch the mysterious cleo
tric wives which carry our wireless
messages through space, and l find
that the springs of my bed serve as
very efficient antennae. My room is
on the second story of my house, and
by using these springs as antennae I
can easily read the signals sent out
every night by the wireless station at
Sayville, L. l., although they are not
by any means SO loud as when 1 use
my outdoor antennae, which are 40
feet above ground, 60 feet long and
consists of four wires on spreaders,
the wires being two feet apart.
''The bedspring antennae are best
for use with nearby high power sta
tions. Sayville, L. l., is about fifty
miles from Peekskill. With my out
door antennae l continually hear the
Arlington (Va.) naval station when it
sends out the correct time signals at
11:55 a. m and at 9:55 p. M; also
the weather reports, Brooklyn navy
yard; New London, Conn; Cape Cod
and others, including amateur stations

BASEBALL PLAYED AT NIGHT
League Games in Saskatchewan Be-
gin at 7:15 o'clock in Regina
and Terminate at 10.

Regina, the capital of Saskatche-
wan province, with a population of
about 10000, has adopted the more
daylight plan Of moving the hands
Of the clock forward one hour. The
change went into effect May 1 and
will continue up to October 1. AS a
result, the baseball games start at
7:15. 1t will be possible then to con-
tinue play up to 10 o'clock.
The crowds are composed of about
three-quarters men and one-quarter
women rooters, and average about
1900 game the year around. 1t is
an everyday sight to see fifty or sixty
automobiles lined up along the right
and left field foul lines. And how
these automobiles do root Every
noisemaking instrument known is
brought into play to cheer on one OF
the home boys. A good play by a
visitor also brings out round Of ap-
plause.
A peculiar situation turned up at
Regina few days ago. In the ninth
men on first and second. with one
man out and the score to against
them. Jack Smith laid down bunt
which the pitcher, Cadreau, threw
into the bleachers. Both runners
scored, apparently winning the game,
but, owing to the ground rule which
permitted only two bases on a wild
throw, Umpire Colgate ruled that only
one run had scored, and the other
could not pass third base. In the
meantime the crowd rushed on the
field and carried off the players, and
it was impossible to resume play.
AS it stood the score was a tie, man
on second and third and one out.
President Fleming, to whom the
matter was finally referred, ordered
the game played over, owing to the
fact that the crowd was allowed tc
rush on the field and prevent further
play.

about Postum and how beneficial it
was, so concluded to quit coffee and
try it.
Il was delighted with the change.
I can now sleep well and seldom ever
have headache. My stomach has got
ten strong and can eat without suf
fering afterwards. l think my whole
system greatly benefited by Postum.

Representative Frank II. O'Hair OF
Illinois has graced report filed with
the house with an excellent sample of
humor quite unusual in such docu.
ments. Mr.. O'Hair was reporting on
a bill to transfer Fort McHenry from

gested that persons passing the birth
place Of The Star Spangled Banner
doff their hats.
This is the way Mr.. O'Hair rewrites
history:
1T was In this fort that some Amer
lean failed to haul down a star span
gled banner one night. This little
oversight so angered some English
men who were visiting I'm the harbor
ut the time that they Immediately
went away. Francis Scott Key, a
plain American citizen, was present on
this occasion and, noticing the afore-
said oversight, made mention Of the
fact and thereby gained almost az
areat a reputation as the banner"
