PREDICTED THAT THIS NATION

Mexico City, April CA report
predicting that Mexico faces ser
ious situation respecting her food
supplies has been made by a COM
mittee of Americans and other for
eigners here who have been inyesti-
eating the situation The report, in
part, is as follows:
-Four years of almost continuous
fighting throughout the various parts
of the republic has produced con
dition of affairs in the food supply
situation so serious as to threaten a
famine of such proportions as to
necessitate world wide aid. The fact
that farm hands have everywhere
been thrown into so-called armies,
that farm animals have been util-
ized for like purposes, that leaders

Only Five States Supplied.

Corn is the staff of life in Mex
leo, as is wheat or its products in
other countries. The harvest of this
cereal for the present should begin
about the first of November, that is
eight months from the date of the
writing of this report. Upon investi-
cation we find that but five states of
MeXicos twenty-five have a sufficient
supply to carry them over this period.
"OaXaca, Morelos, Campeche, Ia
basco and Chiapas probably have
enough corn to last them eight
months if the strictest economy is
employed in using that staple. This
will take care of a populace of L.
100000. Yucatan, with population
of 100000, produces no corn but has
the money to buy it in the United

trio The members of the posse were
stationed on the hills surrounding the
barn and they thought it would be I'M
possible for the outlaws to escape,
When Starr was notified OF the pres
ence of the officers, he went into the
BARNARD and motioned to the sheriff,
whom he knew, as though to confer
with him. When the sheriff rode into
the ward, Starr shook hands with the
officer as though he was glad TO meet
an old friend. Then Starr said;
81 am going to leave here at 500
o'clock; there are three of us. If you
do not want your men hurt, you mad
better get them out of the way, for
when we start we are going through
YOUR lines. Tell your men that for
me-"
The sheriff returned to his men,
called them together and told them
what Starr had said Within five min
utes there was not man other than
the sheriff left within rifle distance
of Henry Starr. That evening, at b
as he had announced, Starr and his
men rode quietly and without being
molested, away from the barn and to
ward the Usage hills.

Gambling on Increase
in Atlanta Society

Atlanta, December, 1.-THE
rapid increase in gambling among
women IN Atlanta, and particu-
larly among women who are
members of the church, is be-
coming the scandal and despair
of number of ministers whose
eyes are open to the true situa-
ton, and who admit that it is an
parently beyond their power to
cope with.
Not only, it is said, do the fair
ladies gamble for money at
practically every afternoon
bridge party, but both matrons
and debutantes have also become
adopts at poker and are included
as matter of course in Jackpot
and stud games which were
formerly regarded as the ex-
elusive prerogative of the males.
In fact when it comes to poker
playing the men admit that a
woman who is expert at the
game is more difficult to figure
out than a man who has been
playing for ten years, and they
cite the case of a baby-faced,
blue eyed damsel in a recent
game on Peachtree who passed
four queens, then raised the pot
when it was opened, giving
everybody the impression she
was drawing to a flush, and then
won stack of blue chips as high
as a house from a poor misguid-
ed mere man who had caught a
third jack to jacks and skies.
After that .the men are almost
willing to agree with the preach
ers that it is very wicked thing
for an innocent young lady to
play poker.
