When 1t Rains One Inch.

Very few persons-even those
who are we'll informed on most
matters-know how much an inch
of rain is.
The average man or woman
probably has an idea that an inch
of rain is a mere trifle on natures
part. This is entirely wrong.
In reality, it is a good big rain
fall-more than falls in most
| places in an average week.
A rainfall of one inch means
literally that the amount of water
descending in a particular shower
would cover the surrounding
territory to a depth Of one inch,
providing it did not run away or
soak into the ground.
An inch of rain coming down
on a single acre of land would
! fill more than 600 barrels of forty
five gallons capacity each. This
amount of water would weigh
more than 10 tons or nearly a
quarter of a million pounds. -Ex-
change.

Washington-President Wilson will
intervene in Mexico unless there is a
quick change in the present intOler-
able condition that exists in that coun-
try Unless the warning factions in
Mexico allow the prompt distribution
Of foodstuffs to the starving women
and children in that country, Presi-
dent Wilson will send the armed
forces of the United States to see that
it is done. A statement to this effect
will be issued by the president within
the next two or three days. This was
the construction placed here on a
brief announcement made by the pres
ident shortly after he had affixed his
signature to an appeal for contribu-
tions Of foodstuffs from the American
people to relieve the famine condi-
tions now prevailing in Mexico.
Mineral Wells, Texas.-Word was

that she had been sunk, reached here
1t caused great excitement
1t was learned that the 900 passen-
gers on La Champagne we're negro

Unquestlonably, in their opinion, the

Those who go that way will find them
selves close to the Kentucky capital,

Berlin, via Amsterdam, May 20
That the German reply to the Ameri-
can note sent to Berlin after the Lusi-
tania was sunk will not. be final, but
will open the way to further ex-
change of diplomatic messages was in
timated here by high German official.
Daily conferences on the nature Of
the reply are now being held by Chan
cellor Won Bethmann-Hollweg and For
eign Secretary Won Jagow. 1t is prac-
tically complete.
As far as the Lusitania incident is
concerned, Germany's reply, it is said,
will be that the destruction OF that
liner was justified because she was in
reality an auxiliary cruiser. German
officials claim this is proved by the
November navy list issued by the
British admiralty.
On page 422 Of that book they as
sert, the Mauretania and Lusitania
are listed as Royal Naval Reserve
Merchant Vessels" with this note
"The vessels named below are held
by the Cunard company at the dis
posal of the lords commissioners OF
the admiralty and receive an annual
subvention."
They further assert that Captain
Turner is named in the same navy list
as an honorary commander OF thc
royal naval reserve.
These facts, they contend show that
the Lusitania was . warship aud that
she was commanded by an officer Of
| the British navy.
