WASHINGTON KNOWS
 NOTHING OF ULTIMATUM.
At Picking 25o American Marines Are
 Guarding American Legation.

Washington, May 5-Secretary Bryan said today that the United states had not been advised of the is- suance of any Japanese "ultimatum'' to China
 Negotiations Not Concluded.
 As the state department here is well informed on the progress of the i'm portant negotiations in Picking, this led observers to believe that the latest Japanese note, while drastic, does not necessarily mark the conclusion of the negotiations.
 In Japanese circles it is believed that this note will be sufficient to secure the eventual compliance of China with the principal Japanese demands.
 In these same quarters, however, it Is pointed out that it would be too much to expect the Chinese negotia- tors to make a complete surrender without an attempt by President Yuan Shf Kai and his party leaders to elicit an expression of opinion from the great interested in China and to se- cure moral support fro them.
 Note of President of China,
 It was suggested that this idea might find expression in an identical note from President Yuan, directly or through his secretary of state. to Great Britain, the United States, and even Germany, asserting that the
 
 integrity of China and to invade the treaty rights of these nations. If the replies received are unreSponsiVe to this appeal. or are confined simply to polite expressions of sympathy with out promise of material aid in resist ing the Japanese programme, it is suggested that President Yuan may then communicate the result of his efforts to the various viceroys of the great Chinese provinces and declare that he finds it necessary to submit without the display of force
 American Troops in China.
 The state department up to late to- day had received no advices concern ing the internal situation in China and whether any uneasiness was being felt in legation quarters. At Picking are 250 American marines command ed by Lieutenant Colonel Dion Will jams, guarding the American lega- tion. At Tien Tsin are the head quarters of the First and Third bat talions and machine gun platoon of the United States infantry.

In all twenty six proposed amendments of the states organic law have been intro duced, and from these amendments it was apparent that judiciary reform is uppermost in the collective mind of the convention. Of the proposed amendments no less than eleven pro- vide for changes in the judiciary arti- cle of the constitution. Not one of these proposed amendments, however, goes so far as to provide for the abolition of an elective Judiciary.

Treating the New Car Right.

From Lesifes.
An experienced motor car builder
who has made a pronounced success in
his field, urges upon purchasers of the
eight-cylinder model that he has
brought out in addition to the previous
-four" that they should never. under
any condition, drive their car faster
than thirty miles an hour for the first
two hundred miles. This means that
the purchaser must forego the tempta-
his car on high for the first two or
three weeks, and should be content to
shift to lower gear on any grade that
he might hope to ascend with ease
when the motor is eventually thorough
ly worked In.
Aside from the mechanical consfdera-
tions that render such conservative op-
Grafton advisable there is the common
sense which says that the driver of
any car with which he is unfamiliar
should exercise due caution in its oper-
alton. To handle a car with a maxi
mum of safety and comfort, the differ
ent controls should be very part of
the driver himself. and such familiar
ity cannot be obtained in a few miles.
Furthermore, any weaknesses which
may be inherent in that particular car
or model will be brought out with due
warning and may be remedied before
serious damage has been done. 1t is
far safer, as we'll as more economical,
to discover a weak steering gear or an
abnormally tight bearing when travel
ing at twenty or twenty-five miles an
hour than would be the case were the
car pushed to it's limit and the weak
ness asserted itself at forty or fifty
miles an hour,

Noble Aspirations.
ON the Dayton Journal l

From the Dayton Journal
II we accept Balzac's statement: Ma
tions, like men, owe all their strength
and vitality that Is in them to noble
thoughts and aspirations" we shall find
ourselves wondering how we ought tC
compare the strength and vitality o1
England, Germany and France. Each
of these empires is great and strong
and each owes this strength and vi
.tality to the noble thoughts and aspira-
tions of its people. How shall we ap-
praise the noble thoughts and aspira-
tions of Germany, of England. OF
France. No mortal scroll could mirror
forth all of lofty good that has re-
suited from the thoughts and aspira-
tions of these peoples. peoples who are
now ravening at each others throats
forgetting ali the splendor of their con-
structive years in the madness of the
destructive present.
Strong these nations are-what shall
make them stronger? Still nobler
thoughts and aspirations. 1t may be
that out of this moil of blood and tears
each may rise to a new and higher
destiny, destiny of peace and pros
perity which shall include no thought
Of war Let US hope that this may be
true of their future.

to dine on Peter himself. He knew just
as Well as Peter did that there was no
safe hiding place for Peter nearer than
the ramble-tangle and he made up his
mind that that was just where Peter
would start for. You see, Old Man Coy
Man Coyote is very smart. He knows
all about Peter and his ways, and he
felt sure that Peter would do just as
he did do-stop to- listen to what was
going on back there at the pond.
So when Peter started the second time
Old Man Coyote was not far behind
him and his nose was in Peters tracks.
now Peter can run very fast for short
distance, but for a long distance Old
Man Coyote can run very much faster
than Peter. That safe old bramble-
tangle was still some distance away
when Peter. looking back as he ran,
saw Old Man Coyote almost at his
heels. The sight Of those grinning teeth
seemed to give Peter more speed. Never
had he run as he ran then. His heart
was humping so that it seemed as if
it would burst. His breath was almost
gone. The bramble-tangle was only
three jumps away. but Old Man Coyote
was SO close that it seemed to Peter
as if he could feel his hot breath. One
jump, Two jumps. Three jumps,
Peter felt the friendly old brambles
brush against him and then there was
a sharp pull at his tail. With little
scream of fear Peter pulled with all
his might and then--he was safei He
looked back. Just on the edge of the
bramble -tangle stood Old Man Coyote
and in his mouth was little bunch Of
white hairs. Peter looked at his funny
little tail. It looked funnier than ever.
There was hole in the middle where
the hair had been pulled out.
