You probably found my card, unless the wind blew it away. tried to secure it, but it was terribly blustery that day. I remember. I've always meant to come again.

One day at the sea- shore my husband and the boy went out swimming. The undertow got them and they drowned before my eyes. Oh, we hated happiness since then!

HUERTA'S MOVE.

To all indications Victoriano Hu- erta has gotten himself into 8 peck of trouble. That is a small parcel in comparison with what he has been through but it must make him realize the fact that whatever he may have thought he was doing in the way of fooling this government as to his real intentions while in this country, it is not as gullible as he had figured.
 Huerta unquestionably sees an op- portunity under the prevailing condi- tions in Mexico with no faction able to secure and maintain a supremacy which can support a government of the whole country, to fight his way back into power. He has kept in close touch with Mexican affairs and the supporters of his regime in that re- public. He knows of course the atti- tude of this country and the effort which it is making to bring together the warning factions for the setting up of a government which can be recog- nized and assisted and there are req sons to believe that he has not been idle during his stay here in his own behalf.
 If he believes however that he is going to pull the wool over the eyes pL I1IS SOEeIA1ueHL Uy any Sucn CIalnl as that he has advanced to the effect that he was on his way to the fair at San Francisco he has made the second big mistake of his career. It is true that one of the routes would carry him through Fl Paso but with the many other ways of getting there without throwing any suspicion what ever on his trip such an excuse for getting to the Mexican border is too thin. His course and his company are sufficient to disclose his real purpose His move is no different than was suspected when he entered this coun- try.

THE WAR PRIMER By National Geographic Society

"pixmude, the melancholy little vil- lage of yesterday and the ruins of to- day, was once a brave, wealthy mer- chant city, with more than 30,000 in habitants. In the days of its pros perity, it was a port for large ships, and the products of many countries filled it's warehouses. In those days, it was a strongly walled and bastioned city, and it's well-trained citizen soldiery knew how to uphold the honor of their thriving port upon the slug gish Yser. The German invaders, how ever, found no evidences of the old time walls and Notifications. nor of any Yser quays.
 "Dixmude, just before the war hastened the final process of it's ob- liberation, was a decaying village of HOO people with grass and weeds growing in its sleepy streets and in its large Grand Square, that square roomy enough to hold in comfort a mass meeting of twice the towns population This large square, the splendid Church of St. Nicholas, that stood upon it. and some solid. old stone houses, lining the crooked streets, remained to bear tes- timony to Dixmude's earlier inn portance.
 Much of the citys splendor was wiped out by the soldiers of Ghent and Bruges in the middle of the 16th cen tury. During 1858, enemy troops DuITlSQ oUU 1OneS, the paldtlaI RullQ and corporation halls and the chateau at Dimude. Its walls and the palaces of it's merchant princes were destroyed long before the present war.
 When Dixmude became one of the key positions in the Flanders cam paign, 1t was a substantial quiet viI- lage. The martial and mercantile fame of the town had sped. Its chief renown was that of its superior butter and eggs, and that of the singing, or better. triiling competitions of it's blind finches. The natives snared these shy birds, and, that they might sing undisturbed by the presence of onlookers, they were blinded, by the soaring of their eyes with hot irons These singing competitions between the birds were held on holidays, and money prizes were distributed for the sweetest trilling. Accomplished birds often brought their owners large sums. More than 1000 thrills in one hour by one of these sightless finches was a Dixmude record, and as proud a one to the burghers there as is a baseball pennant in an American city.
 The town was medieval in appear ance. Many of the houses had windows screened by heavy, rust eaten iron bars. and heavy, one-piece, wooden shutters. Some of them were very ancient, and, thus, valuable mem ories of Europe's struggles. St- Nich- olas Church, an imposing structure with Gothic tower, was the towns principal boast. and its interior con- tained some equisite ornamentation work, patterns carved in stone as del- icate as rare, handmade lace. The altar screen was prized as one of Europe'SE marvels."

POLAND AUTONOMY.

When Russia during the early stages of the war promised autonomy to Po- land there was some doubt expressed as to whether it would ever be car ried out. It was looked upon in some quarters as a promise that might be easily forgotten. or deferred for a long time, even as~was the idea of. grant Ing certain privileges to the Jews which had so long been denied.
 Poland is not as yet self govern ing and 1t is impossible of course to tell when it will be, but the promise has been forgotten and no Pole is likely to allow Russia to forget it's statements of last summer. The move which has just been made by that country for the appointment of com mission to make the necessary ar engagements indicates that Russia. ap- preciates the advantages which are to be obtained through the advancement of this proposition.
 Not a small amount of the fighting which has taken place in the struggle oeteween Russia and the Teutonic forces has been on Polish soil and with he declaration on the part of the combined armies to attempt a new arive for Warsaw following the sue cess of the campaign in Galicia it is decidedly in the interest of Russia to put forward this important question again at this time. It does not admit my weakness of it's armies which are defending that line but 1t is to it's advantage that Polish sympathy should be assured and nothing can assure the undivided support of those people like a move which will give them to understand that Russia means what it said. In this regard Russia has chosen a golden opportunity for its action.

TIME GEORGIA PRoElrEn.

However Georgia has stood on the question of mob rule, or however high may be it's standard of justice, it has just passed through a test which marks it's future course more plainly than ever. It Is time for Georgia to realize that the day for laxity in the maintaining of law and order Is pass ed, and the importance of the rights of every individual has been advanced by the action of Governor Slaton.
 In response to influence, political prospects or the will of the inconsid- crate element, it would have been easy for the governor to have permit ted the life of Frank to have been taken and to have claimed Justification for his course on the ground that all others to whom the case had been re- ferred had by majority vote decided such should be done. He could have taken all responsibility from his shoulders had he been willing to do so, but that he did not discloses as nothing else the conscientious service which he recognized he was called up- on to render the state and every in dividual by the office he held.
 It is an example which should set Georgia to thinking. If it has not been disposed to give the proper re- spect to justice or has a wrong notion as to a fair administration and en- forcement of the law 1t IS time there was an awakening. For it to become necessary to call out the militia to protect the governor from a mob which even cried lynch him. because he did what was considered by him to be the right thing is a reflection upon the people of that state which cannot be ignored. To correct that disgrace full condition is duty which devolves upon the new governor and one which he cannot with credit shirk.

The sight of contingent departing to take ship for Italy means ever so much more to beholders than reports of great battles with hundreds of thousands captured and slain. And it is a cause alike for pride and sad ness that the Providence tribute of manhood to the struggle against barba- rism is a considerable sacrifice of our best Italian citizenship. Many of these stanch patriots go now never to re- turn, and every such one will be sorely and widely mourned in this community Providence Bulletin.

The unemployed are generally the most unhappy, the most discontented, the most liable to do wrong. The person who is busy will have less time or inclination to find fault with others or to engage in disreputable affairs. Keep employed. Do some thing useful. Work for small wages if you cannot get more. Work with out pay rather than be idle. Such a person will not long be unemployed; neither will he work long without fair compensation. There is always a de- mand for faithful employees.-Rock- vile Journal.

The late legislature lodged an in- portant duty when 1t revised the au- tomobile laws and failed to make more stringent regulations concern ing the granting of licenses. It has been revealed time and. again that persons wholly unfitted physically, mentally and temperamentally could as readily secure a license as the most careful and experienced of per sons. A long chapter of wretched ac- cidents has revealed the weakness of the existing law. At present Con necticut in effect simply makes no distinction between the competent and the incompetent. All she asks is a couple of dollars, and for that price places the public at the mercy of the inefficient and irresponsible.

OTHER. VIEW POINTS

It was comforting to self-respecting Yale graduates to see someone take Prof Yandell Henderson in hand and give him the vigorous spanking he de- served for his brutal outpourings on the dead of the Lusitania. pr. Josh Hartwell measured up to the situa- tion nicely. He always had a faculty of meeting an emergency with calm decision and unquestionable force. He has done so ip the case of Henderson. -Ansonia Sentinel.
 If the business men of Danielson would get together and pull strings for better Main street, beautiful Danielson would be greatly benefited. The present thoroughfare is one of the worst in town. Why not try the mak- ing of a shell road, the same as on Center street? That was a capital idea, and if applied to Main street, the problem of an up-to-date Main street would be solved.-Danielson Advertiser.

 Now the indications, faint as they are, show Germany making an effort to maintain friendly relations with us We have been supremely patient under great provocation and 1t will be source of great qualification to the president, his advisers and the Amer ican people, if the German foreign off, cers will indicate a willingness to re- cede from its present oppressive course with neutral rights on the high seas. The United States merely asks for the maintenance unchanged of the rules of international law. It is acting as the protector of the lives and property of neutral nations the world over, not only against Germany but, if necessary against the allies.-Ansohia Sentinel.
 Yale knows how to handle it's crank professors better than Ponn does, Dr. Josh Hartwell did up Yandell Hen derson beautifully at the '1492" din- ner in New Haven last night. He sternly rebuked him for his defense of the Lusitania crime and exposed the absurdity of his slanderous tale about war babies on Montauk Point. Everybody who heard it approved it and so will everybody who reads 1t today. It is much better than sus- pending or discharging Henderson. It shows the world that free speech is protected at Yale and it also shows just what the real sentiment of the university is. Dr. HartweiI was ex- actly the man to do it, too, a New York physician of splendid reputation, man of high standing in college in his day. a football captain and crew man of prowess, and of an all-around reputation which enables him to speak with acceptance and authority Waterbury American.
