Mary Ann-the real one-liyed In
the little town from which | came.
She had all the qualities which have
endeared Mr.. Zangwill's Mary Ann to
countless thousands. She was rear
ed in moderate circumstances and,
when upon thed cath of her parents.
she was thrown on the charity OF
|neighbors, she found her lot humi-
liating, though why she should was
inexplicable, for whatever her moth
er' friends did for her had not the
least guise of charity.
MARY Ann eventually tired of the
small town and went to New York.
We corresponded with her for little
while and then her letters ceased.
Nothing was heard of her for several
years and then one day our local
postmaster read in New York paper
that Mary Ann had thrown herself
under a New York elevated train.
The headline read City Once More
Exacts Its Toll The story was very
brief, not over ten or twelve lines. 1t

Treasurer Bliss to Make Full
Statements of Expenses
by Tomorrow.

New York, Nov. 23.-Having ac-
krowledged defeat and President Will
son having replied to Charles E.
Eughes message of congratulation,
Chairman Wilcox declared that it is
row time for everybody to get behind
the president and give him undivided
support.
81 would have expected the Demo-
Gratis to have taken the same action
we took had they been in our position"
said Mr.. Wilcox, commenting on the
Hughes message of congratulation.
"But, now that all is over, it is time
for everyone to get behind the pres
ident. know of no Irregularities in
the vote of California, though I
heard some talk along this line, and
we waited until the official count had
practically been completed, because we
felt that otherwise the people who
had voted for Hughes might feel we
were not doing everything possible to
protect him and make sure the ballots
were counted as cast.
With the customary post election
amenities disposed Of between the two
candidates, a search into the tele-
grams of congratulation received by
the president during The last two
weeks, has revealed some interesting
facts. To each cabinet member who
wired congratulations to the president
lie included significant paragraph
"One of the best things about this
result is that it means four years
more of active ASSOCIATION in public
service and in that genuinely re-
jcice."
This is taken to indicate that the
president has no idea of changing the
personnel of his cabinet. Cabinet
Members were particulrly strong in
their congratulatory language.

MEXICAN PRIDE IS
STUMBLING BLOCK
IN BORDER PATROL
Mexicans Want Command
Troops in United States
and Own Country.
(By United Press)

Atlantic City, Nov. 23.-The Mexi-
CAN American border question being
worked out by joint commission OF
the two countries here has resolved
itself into a question of reason and
pride, with American reason and Mex
itan pride. Each side is adhering
siubbornly to its guns, but neither
can agree as to the time the United
States should withdraw the troops and
as a result all discussion for the pres
ent is on the form the border patrol
the nations shall take.
An agreement has been reached up
t" certain point, where the Mexican
members of the commission want a
mutual agreement whereby the troops
CT the Mexican government may pur-
sure bandits back into the United
States, if any cross, just as they
will agree to allow pursuit of Mex
ican marauders across the line into
Mexico by the United States troops.
This plan, it is learned, has been
agreed to by the American commits
sioners, providing the patrol on both
sides of the border is under the con-
troll of an American general. This is
where the Mexican pride entered into
the controversy.
American troops in Mexico, Carran-
"a representative say, are to be COM
manded only by Mexican generals.
American members of the commission
argued that the only sort of a border
patrol that will work and the only
sort that will justify the United States
in withdrawing is one single directing
head.
Because of disorganized conditions
in Mexico they say obviously this
leader must be an American. The
Mcxicans insist that separate organi-
cations under separate heads can ham
die the situation, but in any event
Mexican sovereignty is involved in
complete control.
The country's troops cannot be sac
riticed to the present expediency and
there is no present disposition on the
rart of the Mexicans to yield the
point. Certainly there is none by
Americans to accept an arrangement
that they consider less than practical.
As to the other issues, involving in
ternal Mexican policies, the Mexican
commissioners are not discussing these
