ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
While the newspapers throughout
the United States were busily an
nouncing the warlike operations of
Gen. Sancho Fernandez here, there
and elsewhere that December, it was
a fact that the revolutionary dictator
Of Mexico was really in Washington,
D. c.. where he had been peremptor-
lily summoned by the president.
His conference at the capitol was
short and very much to the point. 1t
was pointed out with painful decisive
ness to the Senior General Fernandez
that hereinafter he would have to
make his ragged army respect the
rights Of U. 8. A.
The pill that General Fernandez was
thus made to swallow was not sugar
coated. but 1t unquestionably did him
good. He went down the White House
steps that day before Christmas a
sadder and wiser man. However
the dictator of Mexico was q philoso-
pher.
General Fernandez. muffled his face
deep in the soft warmth of his fur
collared greatcoat, and started off
down the avenue.
BY and by he came to the business
district where throngs of last-minute
shoppers were bustling about. Snow
had begun to fall heavily-great feecy
flakes that filled the whole air and,
supplementing the gay holiday decora-
tions and shouts of street hawkers,

babies down there right now! Big
battle at Guaremo; three hundred

smiled queerly and approached the
ragged waif at the newsstand. She
was blue with cold and a.shiver be-

shawl. her thin. prematurely-aged face
looked wan and pinched.
Genuine pity-an unusual thing in
the dictator-seized him as he sur
veyed her
DO you really believe that this
General Fernandez is as bad as all
that?" he asked her with a whimsical
half smile
The street waif stared up at him
suspiciously
