This had hardly come to pass in the
capital when a message from another
locality gave me new particulars.
Through this I Learned that President
Gutierrez had addressed the military
convention In an attempt to ignore it.,
and, turning against it, defrauding the
hopes of the country, which had been
left with him, had turned traitor to
the public aspirations and those Of the
revolution.
Contrary to all political questions.
and having only the desire to do my
duty, I at once called a meeting of all
generals with me and all those accom-
panying me. in order to take up the mat

out of the house and 7ces with the
girl. They find Jitney automobile,
and after dropping nickel in the slot
are off. the count, the cruel parent
and several policemen in pursuit in
another machine.
There is a wild race across all
kinds of roads, through woods and
across small creeks, in which the
autos run both backwards and for
wards, colliding many times. Chaplin
loads his auto with bricks and when
the pursuers are too close bombards
them. He knocks the policemen out

and the pursuers' machine Is knocked
