Charley Askew swung round in his
chair and faced his wife decisively.
Cynthia, dear, l don't want you to
do it," he said.
Not once more, dearest? For the

But you must bear up one night

young wife answered.

TO DRILL HOLES IN GLASS
Copper Wire With Mixture Of Emery
and Oil, Will DO the Work Well
and Quickly.

The following is satisfactory
method of drilling holes in glass:
Take a piece OF straight copper the
size of the hole that ii is required to
drill. The tubing should have a wall
of one-thirty-second of an inch or
more in thickness, depending upon
the diameter. The tube is set up In a
drill chuck and driven at a speed cor.
responding TO that of a twist drill OF
the same size. The tube is fed down
on TO the glass with an intermittent
movement, and a mixture OF emery
and oil is dropped on to the glass at
the point where the hole Ia TO be
drilled After a ring has been cut
in the glass on one side the work is
turned over and the drilling com.
pleted from the opposite side. This
will prevent chipping the glass when
the drill nears the opposite side. The
copper tubing is soft, so that II holds
the emery. and as copper is an excel
lent conductor Of heat IL draws the
heat away from the glass. preventing
IL from being cracked An idea OF
the rasidity with which holes can be
drilled in this way may be gathered
from the fact that a flve-sixteenths
inch hole can be drilled through an
ordinary sheet OF window glass IL

ORDER MAINTAINED.
Mexico City Quiet, Carranza's Only
Worry is Villa.

Washington, July l6.-Whether or
not Gen. Carranza will receive the
Washington administrations moral
support" as leader of the dominant fac
ton in Mexico is likely to be known
here soon, it was believed yesterday.
Officials acknowledge he was doing re-
markably well in Mexico City. All ac-
counts agreed that he was restoring or
ganized government there rapidly. Food
was being rushed into the city. The wat
er supply's source was in his hands. Per-
feet order was reported. At Vera Cruz
and in the territory between the two
cities similar conditions prevailed.
The only doubtful point was whether
he could crush Gen. Villa. His version
was that the Nillistas were completely
disorganized. The disposition here was
to believe this. but the Villistas them
selves declared their forces were ex-
tremely active about Aguas Calientes
and predicted an early attempt to recap
ture Mexico City.
1t was believed a few days would
show whether or not these claims were

Meets Cabinet on Next Tues
day to Discuss
Note
WILL OUTLINE REPLY
TO GERMANY
Nothing Considered Aside
from the Actual Ger
man Text

Washington, July l6.--President vii
son will be in Washington for Tuesday,
cabinet meeting, it was stated positive
| ly at the White House yesterday. Sec
rotary Tumulty thought him likely tc
leave Cornish Sunday afternoon, but was
not sure of it.
Devoting practically all their time
to the study of the reply to be made to
Germany, President Wilson and Secre-
tary of State Lansing have made rapid
progress. 1t is likely that the whole
ground will be prepared before the cab
met meets on Tuesday. Not later than
a week or ten days after the cabinet
session the presidents formal reply will
be ready for transmission to Berlin.
The president and the secretary have
been comforting by mail and exchanging
views over the telephone and telegraph.
When Mr.. Wilson reaches Washington
there will be conferences with various
persons and events will then move
swiftly.
1t is believed that after his return
to Washington the president will re-
main here indefinitely, notwithstanding
the discomforts of the Washington sum
mer. IL is learned that he does not
an early return to Cornish.
While officials see some indications that
the Germans are DESTROYS to have an
hearing of the case, the
attitude of American diplomats is dis
to such overtures The Ger
man ambassador, Count Won Bernstorff,
has intimated his wish to have talk
with Secretary lansing, while unofficial
reports from Berlin are taken here to
mean that efforts are being made to
modify the unfavorable impression
caused by the text of the note itself.
1t il said authoritatiyely, however,
that the course OF the United States,
any collateral matters, will
DC based upon the representation the
German government has seen fit to make |
n its formal note. The tradition OF |
United States diplomacy is against any |
,ther course. 1t is felt here that il |
he German government had wished Of |
icially TO offer any further "eonces-
ions it would have so stated in the
tote, and officials suspect that the mat
er now emanating from German sources
ere and abroad is intended solely to
influence public opinion for the purpose
{ bringing influence to bear upon the
american administration.
Count Won Bernstorff is assured OF the
pportunity to interview Secretary

Lansing, but it will be at the secretary's
leisure. He wrote recently announcing
his return to Washington and suggest
ing that the secretary might wish to see
him. The secretary replied to the am
bassador's note saying it might be de-
sirable for them to have talk and lat
err, meeting personally, the two agreed
again that it might be well for them to
discuss the situation. No date has been
set for this meeting, and it is probable
it will not take place until the course
of the administration has been maturely
considered.

many shows no shortage, present or pros.

much restitution, there is considerable
food shortage, but the conditions are i'm.
proving, and the situation is encouraging
generally throughout the war area.
"In Belgium" said Mr.. Bicknell, "ev-
cry man, woman and child Of 100000

from other countries. About l,500, 600
are unable to buy their supplies, but all
others do buy them under systematic
arrangement Of distribution at low
prices. Normally Belgium raises about
one-third of the flour it requires for its
own people, but il will not raise that
proportion now. Americans are practi.
cally supporting the Belgium people.
Aside from receipts from the sales of
supplies, there is deficiency of $l2,500-
900 month in the work of distributing
food in Belgium. That really represents
the gift of the United States, except for
the small amounts of Canadian and Aus
tralian wheat.
"In Poland, there are no outsiders en-
gagged in relief work, but there is a large
amount of food being sent in. Distribu-
ton to the needy population, German
and Austrian military commanders are
supervising through local committees of
the Polish people. This food is coming
only from Germany and Austria. The
German government agreed not to mo-

Entered Yesterday Upon Fourth Week

Windsor, July l6-Yesterday marked
the beginning of the fourth week of
President Wilson's visit here--the long
est vacation he has had since he was in
augurated. His longest comparatively
idle time previous to this was at Pass
Christian, Miss, where he stayed nine
teen days.
1t is not known just when the presi-
dent will return to the capital, but it
is certain that he will be there in time
for next Tuesdays cabinet meeting, at
which the German note will be taken
up.
After his usual round of golf yester-
day, the president worked in his study

toring trip yesterday afternoon.

the carpenters and structural iron work
ers. Remington officials declared they
had evidence that German influences
were at work trying TO complicate the
situation.
Wednesday lZ5 mirwrights walked
out, joining the structural iron workers
ALREADY on strike. Officials of the struc-
tural iron workers assert that unless
the Stewart Construction company Of
New York, which is building the new
Remington plant yields to their demand
all the machinists, iron workers and tool
makers in Bridgeport will be called out
on strike, and the Remington and p
other plants engaged in manufacturing
war munitions for the allies will be
forced TO shut down.
Although Major Walter w. Pennfeld,
L. :. A.. retired, insists that the dis
agreement affects the construction CON-
pany only aud in no way involves the
