Commission

New London, Conn, Sept 27.-Co-op
GRAFTON between both civil and military
authorities for the prevention Of Incl

international irritation was considered
yesterday by the Mexican American joint
commission.
The American commissioners present
ed a list of border raids resulting in
the loss of life or property on Ameri-
canssoil.
The list was secured from the war de-
partment. Its presentation was made
'for the purpose" according to the
American commission, "of enabling the
American commissioners to fulfill one
of the purposes of their mission, namely
to ascertain the causes OF the border
raids and to fix the responsibility there
for"
A similar list was submitted by the
Mexicans.
The Mexicans indicated their opinion
that the neutrality laws of the United
States were inadequate and urged that
they be so altered as to make it an Of
Tense for any American to participate
in any way in movement against gov
eminent with which the United States is
at peace.
The joint commission decided yester
day to hold its last session here Thurs

Interesting Reading.
Rudyard kipling finds both pleasure
and profit in reading the dictionary,
and this habit largely accounts for his
wonderful knowledge Of words, his
rich vocabulary and his newness in the
use of words. He does not contine him

likes TO look at slang edition or die
tionary OF dialect.
There IS a certain noble lord who
loves nothing better than turning over
the pages of Bradshaw. spying out all

lines and noting the railway stations

all railway lore and Is often referred TO
by his brother peers when a moot point
is raised about the iron roads of the
