NACO OCCUPIED BY
 CARRANZA FORCES
SECRETARY OF WAR GARRISON RECOMMENDS THEIR WITH
 DRAWAl.

Washington. Occupation of the Mexican town of Naco, on the Arizona border, by Carranza forces was brought to the attention of the State Department by Secretary of War Gar rison with the recommendation that the Carranza commander be requested to withdraw in accord with an agrec- ment entered into last winter that there should be no fighting there.
 When the Mexican factions were contending for Nacos possession last winter bullets and shells fell constant ly on the American side. Through aj-Gen. Scott, chief of the staff of the United States army, Gov. Mayto- rena for Villa. and the Carranaa leader. Gen. Gales, agreed that all military forces should be withdrawn and the town be left a neutral port. Secretary Garrison regards the pres ent occupation as violation of the agreement
 Enrique c. Llorente, Villa agent here, protested to Secretary Lansing that only the absence of Maytorena troops from Northern Sonora to pro tect Americans in the Yaqui territory had made possible tho taking of Naco and the killing of civilian guards and customs employees.
 Tn view of this act of dupiicity, by which Gen. Gales will now seek to profit by using Naco as base for the accumulation of munitions of war and as rendezvous for the concentration of recruits" said Llorente's statement. "I respectfully suggest that the expor- tation of munitions of war from the American side at Naco. be. for the time being, prohibited. Such. am sure, will serve to discourage military operations near the border towns. which my government. like that of the United States, is so anxious to see avoided"
 The situation at Mexico City and surrounding territory continued to arouse apprehension here. no direct word having been received from the capital since reports that Zapata's forces had re-entered.

 Man Acts as Ladder.
 One man was seen to cling to a spike in the side of the wharf while two women and three children stepped up his body as on a ladder to safety. He fell exhausted into the river as the last one of the five reached the pier. Whether he was lost could not be dis covered.
 Instances of heroism were numer- ous. Boats took rescued passengers to the wharf or to the steamer Theo- dore Roosevelt. In an hour the water was cleared. Those not taken to land Lad sunk or were swirling up the river toward the drainage canal locks at Lockport, H.. many miles away. The

 Work of tagging the bodies of the dead and placing them in accessible places for identification proceeded all day and night. Tabulation became so confusing it was decided to take Ill bodies to the Second Regiment arm ory so that those who were looking for lost friends and relatives could view all the victims in one place.
 Identification was slow. Scenes at the morgues were affecting. Mothers fell across the piers of children whom they had sent away a few hours be- fore on what was expected to be a day of pleasure. Men had to summon all their stoical qualities to retain composure as they made their way through rows of corpses looking for missing children or wives.

SHIP CANALS.

Each Has Troubles of lts Own That
 Require Constant Care.
 Leave any ship canal alone for even n year and 1t would no longer be At for navigation. Within five years a small boat would be unable to go through 1t
 The United States has anxietieB over the Culebra cut in the Panama, but not more so than the Germans over their waterway, the Kiel canal, for the ground through which the latter Is cut is in most places nothing but peat rotten black stuff which keeps on breaking up and falling back into the canal.
 Also the bottom continually ''bumps up," thus lowering the depth of the passage. The craft that use the Kiel canal have to crawl along. They say that if a cruiser were to make dash through at top speed 1t would take a year and several millions of money to remedy the damage done by her stern wave.
 Each canal has its own special trou- bles. That of the Panama is land slides. Many have taken place during it's construction. Many more will have to be dealt with in coming years. It is estimated that if the dredging work on the Suez were abandoned within less than ten years the Turks or any one else could cross 1t dryshod. On both sides of the canal stretch miles of dry desert, from which every wind that blows lifts the sand in edging spirals and carries it in great clouds. A sin- gle storm may drop thousand tons of sand into one mile of the canal
 Of late years great quantity Of trees have been planted along the banks in order to prevent the sand from drifting Into the water, yet even so great steam drcdgers are always at work scooping from the bottom the blown In sand and dumping 1t along the shore. Another trouble of those in charge of the Suez canal is caused by fresh water springs, which burst up in Its deep bed and pile the sand in ridges Exchange.

HOW SAVINGS GROW.
Ben Frankiin's Proof That "Money Is
 of a Prolific Nature"

Ben Frankjn's Proof That "Money Ia
 of a Prolific Nature"
 After publishing his Poor Richards Almanac" for twenty-five years and giving thirty-two years more as thrift teacher of his country Benjamin Frank lin put into his will d provision to dem- onstrate the power of accumulated sav- ings.
 To the cities of Boston and Philadel. phia he left 5000 each. The money was to be put out at interest and al- lowed to accumulate for q hundred years. At the end of that time, he fig urcd. each city ought to have $65O,OOO. He directed that at the end of the hun dred years S5OO,OOO should be invested by each city lin public works which may be of most general utility to the inhubitants.' The rest should then be put at interest for another hundred years. when the accumulation should be .liyidcd onc-quarter to the city and threc-Uuartcrs to the state.
 When the first hundred years were past Boston found that she had SGG3,- 923 to her credit from the Franklin fund. Taking $50OOGO Boston estab- lishcd training school for mechanics The remaining $1G&,023 was put out at interest again.
 Philudclphias experience with the original fund of 5000 was about the same as Boston'S.
 Now. Franklin figured that at the end of the second hundred years, when the fund fs to he distributed. each fund ought to amount to about $2O,0O0,OOO But Bostons fund at the end of the first hundred years exceeded Frank in's estimate by $l&923 So here's a problem:
 If Boston handles the fund as sue ccssfully in the second hundred years as she did in the first how much in eX- cess of $20OOO,00O will il, be?
 FranNn's demonstration was i'm nrcssivc; $5,OnO will go into $GG3.023 how many times? Nearly 133 times Wasn't he amply justified when he saii. "Moug@ is uf a prolific nature"
