Murder Attempt Revenge Tactic.

Buenos Aires, "Reminiscences
pondence of The Associated Press. y
1t has developed that the attempt
made to assassinate President de la
Plaza, while he was reviewing the
centenary celebration from the bal
conv Of government house on July 3,
as reported by cable, had root in the
presidents recent refusal to commute
the sentence of two men condemned to
death for murder The assassin, Juan
Mandrini, who is believed to be of IN
sound mind, declares that he believed
the execution of the two men was "a
legal crime" which he felt called up
on 10 avenge They were the first
executions in the Argentine for more
than fifteen years, and with this eX-
ception President de la Plaza had him
self always refused to sign death SEN

these two cases because he deemed
the murder a wilful one.

French Reduce Farming Costs.

Paris-The latest type of traction
and motor farm implements expert
mented with at Gournay sur Marine
under the direction of a representa-
tive of the Academy of Agriculture re-
duced the cost of blowing land more
than 25 per cent in comparison with
the best previous records.
Two and a half acres were p1owed
in light soil with an outlay of 10 gal
Ions Of gasoline in four hours; be-
tween 10 and IA gallons were required
for the same work with the most eff
ficient machines tested last fall. In
heavy soil the difference in favor OF
the new implement was about the
same
The wear of the machines tried was
onsiderable on account of difficulties
of fabrication in flying dust, but the
results were so favorable in comparI-
son with animal power that the YER
dict Of the Academy of Agriculture is
favorable to motor implements and a
general extension of their use is rec
commended.
The greatest difficulty encountered
| is the scarcity of men to operate them
/ the rural population being little used
/ to machinery The academy proposes
! the organization of training schools

Austro Derby Passes Expectations.

VIENNA Correspondents OF the AS
ISOLATED Press. THE great annual
Austrian derby. the banner race OF the
sporting season for all Austria-Hun-
gary, this year proved even more than
the anticipated success. 1t far outdld
the derby Of 1915 in general interest
attendance and sporting features.
MANY Of the big figures in society
and the smart and brilliant gowns OF
peace time were lacking, but the
threatening weather was largely TO
blame for that.
The Austrian race track crowd is
totally unlike the one-time American
crowd. The nerve-racked excitement
Of the American track is lacking, and
when the horses come laundering
down the track-frOm right to lett IN
stead of from left to right and on sod
instead Of solid earth-there are sell
dom any shouts for this or that horse
A feature of the Austrian track IS
the surprising number of women VINO
bet on the races. Thousands OF them
crowded to the pari-mutuel booths on
derby day, feverishly thrusting their
10 and 20 crown bills to the CASHIERS
and jostingly making their way after
each race TO the payroll booths Inc
women. too, furnished a sight that IS
not common on an American TRACK
for countless numbers of them stroll
ed about the paddock, or leaned
against the rail smoking cfgaret after
cigaret. They stood about the huge
announcing board with cigarets be
tween their lips, program IN hand,
carefully and skilfully checking on
the numbers of the horses to run IN
the next race and the names OF the
Jockeys who were to ride them
The only signs OF war, if they would
strike even the outsider, were the
gray uniforms of officers and soldiers
/ who mingled with the crowd.

Bond Which Drew Drivers Together

TWO BATTLE IN ROCK ISLAND
Another Prepares to Swear Ont War
rant for Chauffeur of Bus Which
Smashed Rear of His Machine.

All is not always peace and harmony
among jitbus drivers and the bond
which drew them together when they
first started their fight for existence
is not SO strong now, at least in GER
tain cases
Yesterday two of them battled at
the corner of Twenty third street and
Third avenue. Fred McDaniels was
the aggressor. He accused Chris
Storkeff of trying to hog" the bus1-
ness by driving in ahead OF other Ut
buses and by overlooking his own
car. After the fight, in which McDan-
ieIs had considerably the better of 1t,
he went back to Davenport. Storkeff
went to the police STATING, where he
preferred a charge of assault and bat
terry against McDaniels. McDaniels
was picked up and fined So. But he
is to have his hearing later. When he
went back to Davenport after the
fight he swore out a warrant against
Storkeff, charging him with violating
the jitbus ordinance in Davenport.
Rear of Car Damaged.
Max Alters operates a bus between
Rock Island and Davenport. He was
travelling west on Third avenue be-
tween Seventeenth and Eighteenth
streets and pulled up to stop be-
cause a crowd was boarding a bridge

TO the back end of Alters car. He
claims the driver could have avoided
the mishap if he had been careful and
he intended swearing out warrant
today. The back end of his car is
demolished.

MINER HURLED DOWN
 SHAFT BY ROBBERS;
 PRISONER TWO DAYS
Globe Man Escapes Injury in 40-Foot Drop, But Suffers Most from Want of To- bacco.

GLOBE. Jan. 13-After being q prisoner at the bottom of forty-foot abandoned shaft. on Old Dominion fround from o'clock Sunday night Lopi Lepi. Finnish miner employed at the Arizona Commercial. was res cued about 9 o'clock Tuesday morn- ing. He was taken to the old Domin- ion hospital where it was found that he had escaped without injury other than abrasions on the face and knees.
 Robbers attacked Lepi. took $20 away from him and hurled him down the shaft, according to the story told by the man. A peculiar phase of the story is that although the man de clares he was robbed of S20, the high waymen evidently overlooked S in silver and a watch which were in Lepi's pockets when rescued.
 The shaft in which the man was found is a forty-foot hole near the Old Dominion's "B" shaft. Frank Polle- ilittu hlhC QilfCH dlt WOi o lease near the shaft and on Monday they heard a man calling. They did not recognize the calls and cries of distress. believing it was someone calling burros or some surveyors shouting directions to their assistants.
 Tuesday morning, however, they passed close to the shaft in which the man was a prisoner and then they re cognized that the cries were coming from the bottom of the hole. They investigated and learned of Lepis plight.
 Help was summoned and the man was rescued without much difficulty. He was very hungry and suffered somewhat from his bruises but de- clared that lack of "a smoke" caused him more agony than anything else. He had a package of cigarettes in his pockets but was without matches.
 Lepi's escape from being killed by his fall down the shaft is considered miraculous.
