passing day, when other boys of his
age were having a merry time. He
worked. worked, worked to keep the
wolf from their door. because his
mother used all the money from SEN
ator Browns estate to the mental
uplift of his children.
A few months ago. Matthew went to
Price. Utah. and started to work for
mining company. His illegitimate
half-brother-with hands as white as
snow and a demeanor of rest and con-
tentment-went to see him short
time ago. There they quarreled over
some trifling matter and there they
and what they represented faced each
other.
The boy drudge. old at 90 could not
restrain the hate that had been smould-
ering I'm his breast for years. He hurl-
ed an epithet at the younger boy. and
the spirit of the younger boys hot headed
father famed up. He grabbed a pistol
and shot down the lad who was old at 20.
Circle Was Complete.
He stood alone with the dead body
of Matthew Bradley lying upon the
floor. He. whose own father had been
killed in the same way by his mother.
had slain the son of his mother by her
husband. whom she had practically de-
serted for his father. The circle was
complete,
Is 1t any wonder that Mrs. Bradley
should have said. as she gazed out of the
window of the Jail in this city: Il would
rather die out there on the gallows than
face my children when they are grown
and know my story"
Now the frenzied mother goes from
the grave of one son to the Jail that
holds the other child-a pendulum 'twixt
two extremes of grief. Those who sec
her say her sorrow is too big for the
light frame and tortured memories of one
woman to bear much longer. They re-
member the Biblical phrase pertaining
to THE Sins of the Fathers The sins
Of the mothers. too. are heaped upon the
heads of their children.

his financial adviser.
IF the American government went into

Rather. You would not handle Mexico

give up control of Mexico, once you get

Gen Huerta attended the Federal
League ball game in Newark today. He
said he enjoyed it, although much less
than a bull fight. TOO mild" was the
Huerta characterization of the national
game On returning to the Ansonia, the
former dictatoHof Mexico gave out a for
NAL statement concerning the attack
upon him by Pedro Lascurain, Rafael l..
Hernandez, and Ernesto Madero. and
then let his secretary do the rest Of the
talking.

Concerning the Lascurain-H Hernandez
Madero charge that Huerta was a
Tsurper and responsible for the assas-
sination of President Madero Gen.
Huerta said:
II will not engage in private contro-
versies. American readers must judge
for themselves between the sincerity and
truthfulneSs of my statements and the
attacks directed against me-"
Ratner's statements were regarded as
especially important. because of his init
mate knowledge of Gen. Huertas per-
sonal affairs. In speaking further of
chaotic conditions in Mexico. he said:

themselves like husband and wife. but

ITO reach Mexico City would mean the

1T Is true that the United States in

to their senses. Diaz was that kind of
man. So is Huerta
