Moore and ~Lalla Rookh.s

1t was In 1915 that Tom Moore set
himself to produce his oriental ro-
nance "Lalla Rookh." The poem. says
the Pan Mall Gazette. was the subject
of one Of the most curious agreements
ever made between poet and publisher,
Longman undertaking to pay Moore
5000 guineas for an eastern poem and
to take 1t for better or worse at any
time that suited the authors conven-
fence and without any power to sug-
gest changes or alterations

BUCK THE LINE HARD.
People Who Do Big Things Do Not Let
Themselves Be Held,


1t was on the football field at one of
the large colleges. A big tackle had
been brought over to the varsity field
from one of the class elevens. 1t was
his first experience with the big team.
He played fine game until the other
"break through" as he should. The
coach finally stopped the play and
went over to him.
what is the trouble? Why don't
you get through" he said.
1.-THE man opposite me is not playing
fair. He is holding me-" said the
tackle.
"If he holds you again I'll put you
Off the field" flashed back the coach.
OF course. as the tackle said. 1t Is
against the rules to hold an opponent
unless he has the ball. but the coach
wanted results and not excuses. His
position was that man ought somehow
to break away; that no man must let
himself be held. And that is true, no
one ought to let himself be held. The
excuse may be excellent. but a player
who Is held is put out Of the game as
effectively as If he were of the field.
He might just as well be off the field.
The people who accomplish things
worth while In the world are those
who will not let themselves be held.
There have always been things enough
to hold them. They might have found
excellent excuses, but they have not
had to use any excuses.-Yo Com

h The Penn.Mex Fuel company, In
which much pittsburgh capital is in.

fields in Mexico, has received word
from its general manager that Gen.
eral carranza has given the company
permission to ship its oil in storage
at Tampico and a tank steamer has
been dispatched to that port for its
first cargo OF crude old. The Penn.
Mex Fuel company has for number
Of months had large amount OF crude
In storage ut Tampico, but General
Carranza issued an edict against the
importation OF any crude from that
port and In consequence Of that EN-.
barge the company has been unable
10 market its crude or. continue de.
velopment work on its holdings In
Mexico. Now that the restrictions
hayo been removed the Penn.Mex
company will be able to resume op.
erations, or at least till such time
as another such edict. one similar, is
issued by some self.appointed dictator
IN that troublesome country.
Recent action taken by the United
States government to curb the unwar.
ranted actions of the Mexican against
foreign interests in that country has
caused General Carranza and his as.
sociates to relent. The Mexican old
fields are no doubt the richest In the
world. but the political disturbance IN
which the country has been convulsed
has for more than year proven a
great hindrance to their development.

Grain and Produce.

Corn was irregular and unsettled
with liberal offerings on the hard
spots. There was considerable talk
OF a round lot OF corn selling at st.
Louis to go to the South, but this
dwindled down TO 10000 bushels be-
fore the close. Cash sales here were
100000 bushels. II was reported that
a round lot Of corn was offered on the
part OF seaboard exporters, as they
claimed to have no outlet for the
grain. Some in the trade believe that
wheat will advance and that corn will
be advanced by the former grain.
While oats was strong the full ad.
vance was not maintained. There
were sales here Of 1,146,0o0 bushels.
OF which all but 10000 bushels was
for export.
Hog news was again bearish and
prices were lower early. but they ad.
yanced later and closed higher on
buying by local shorts. Longs and
the smaller packers sold on the up.

TWO CHILDREN
BURNED TO DEATH
Mysterious Explosion Wrecked the
Home and Resulted in Ter
ribIe Catastrophe.

United Press Leased Wire S.ervice-l
DIES MONIES, Iowa, March 30
Two sleeping children were burned to
death and their mother, Mrs. Charles
O'Brien, was perhaps fatally burned
in a mysterious explosion and fire
which wrecked the OBrien home at
1920 East Thirteenth street at 1880
o'clock this morning.
The dead:
FOREST O'BRIEN, 10.
ROSE O'BRIEN, 9.
The cause of the explosion is a
mystery. The police are divided be-
tween the iacendiary theory and an
explosion of gas or gasoline. When
the explosion occurred. the mother
had a chance to escape, but rushed
back in an effort to save her children.
The father is ticket agent at the
union depot and was at work and
could give 40 reason for the accident
when rushed to the scene IN taxi
cab. Neighbors took the badly burn
ed mother to the hospital and saved
some Of the furniture.
