Methodist Episcopal general conference
here tonight the result of missionary
work in that country over which he has
episcopal supervision. He visited the
Mexican churches frequently during
the trouble there and was in Mexico

Whatever may be said of Presi
dent Wilson $ Mexican policy said
the bishop, sit is true that this policy
has done more to convince the Mexicans
that the United States does not want
Mexico than have all other policies put
together.
1.-The stories of outrages committed
upon Americans as the result of anti
American spirit are very greatly ex
aggerated Scores of Americans have
been killed but not because they were
Americans. After four trips to the in,

border, l have been unable to learn OF
more than one American killed just be-

who have died by the recent outrages

CREAMERY rs A CERTAINTY.

The committee on creamery organi-
cation reports that the required amount
of stock has been subscribed and more
than 400 cows so far pledged. They
will continue work for a few days get
ting the necessary surplus subscrip-
ton and more cows. From present in
dications the plant will have, when it
starts early in June, the patronage of
from 500 to $50 cows. The people of
our town and community can congratu-
late themselves over the successful
work of this committee in securing the
location of creamery at this point.
Tt will mean change from present con-
ditions and more competition in field
heretofore dominated by the big cen
Trailing companies. It will mean an
honest test and better prices to the
dairvman, saving of freight and but
termilk, and the manufacture of high
err quality of butter out of cream
gathered oftener and in better condi-
ton.
The stock subscribers will meet early
next week to select building COM
mittee and work ON the construction of
the building will begin soon after. Mr..
Quinn thinks they can have the plant
in operation by the first to tenth OF
July.-Cottonwo Chronicle.

were by way of the northwest passag &c,
north OF America. because, having first
tried the northeast passage. north of
Europe and Asia, and In every instance
having met with dire failure, they con.
centrated attention upon the northwest
passage as probably more feasible.
Practically all the arctic expeditions
from Sir John Ross to Sir John Frank
lin were fitted out most OF all to find
the northwest passage. The passage
was found during the search for the
lost party of Sir John Franklin, but
1t was never traversed by ship till
Amundsen took his little boat. the
Gjoa, through 1t in August, 1906
The attempts to make the northeast
passage began with the hardy Dutch
sailor Barents in 1895, whose party
was the first to spend the dark winter
night in the arctic "ln most create
cold and extreme miserie" The only
achievement of the northeast passage
prior to Vilkitski's success in 1914-15
was by Baron A. Il. Nordensjold, who
sailed from Tromsoe with his Swedish
expedition In June, 1878, triumphed
over the great obstacle of Cape Chel-
yuskin and was within 100 miles of
Boring strait when winter closed upon
him. He entered Boring strait In July,
1879, thirteen months from the time he
sailed.-Cyrus G. Adams in New York

SENDING A MAN BY MAIL.
1t Is Quite Possible Under British
Parcel Post Rules.

The parcel post has made its useful
ness felt in many ways, unexpected as
well as foreseen. But the English par
eel post does one surprising thing that
has not yet been introduced into our
own system.
An Englishman wished to reach a
customer living In remote part of
BALKAN, one of the suburbs of London,
and 1t was very necessary that he find
him quickly. Knowing nothing of the
district, he called at the general post
office at st. Martin sic Grand to con-
suit directory. On explaining his
case to a clerk he was amazed to learn
that he could be sent to the address
by parcel post by paying fee of
threepence mile.
The gentleman had never heard OF
such a thing, and 1t is said that very
few persons in England know that 1t
can be done. He was placed In charge
of messenger who was familiar with
all parts of the city and was soon on
his way. The boy carried printed
slip on which was written descrip-
ton of the parcel in charge under
the heading article Required to Be
Delivered" and before leaving the Gus.
toner's house both the customer and
the gentleman had to put their sigma.
lures on the paper.
The limit in weight for anything de.
livered by parcel post in England Is
generally understood to be eleven
pounds, but there is one clause that
reads, "a person may be conducted by
express messenger to any address on
payment of the mileage fee."-Youth's
Companion.
