Playing Safe.

One Of Australias best landscape
painters was out with his bag OF
tricks near Daylesford recently. He
had pitched in front Of an old two
roomed wattle-and-d hut, softened
with, a crimson-fl -flowered creeper
which he thought would make an ex-
ceilent sketch. While he was work
ing a tall, hairy man came out Of the
hut and regarded him with some
misgiving.
The dweller approached. Wat
cher doin'. mister?" he asked.
Pm painting your picturesque
dwelling" said Patterson.
The hut dweller regarded Patter-
son obviously for a minute. then went
indoors Presently he appeared with
his wife. and the two advanced to-
ward the artist. Mind yeh." said
The man, pointing to the painter,
this at your own expense."-Pitts-

The Trail of the Serpent Marks n

In the Royal Gallery at Munich
hangs AN impressive picture bv that
great painter Correggio, representins
the thorn crowned Sufferer unified
amid the centuries. The rope which
binds the hands of the Divine victim
Is represented us suspended above the
Latin inscription:
Il have done these things for thee,
What hast thou done for me?"
Oh yes, | understand only too well
the argument that will meet this
question. A question which implies
within itself life of service and sac
rifice. 1t is a hard, unnatural re-
Qmrement, you say-this matter OF
sacrifice. And looking at 1t from "A
human standpoint alone l am ready
To admit it is hard. In fact no human
code OF ethics, so far as | have knowl-
edge, insists on sacrifice. To pray
for ones enemies, to love them in the
heart, to die for them, such Ian
guage Is wholly unintelligible to the
merely human mind. But when we
sacrifice from the Christie impulse,
and not from the man-made substi-
tute, We are n step higher in the
economy of things divine; we have
spoken In our own soul the laneuag
that God speaks; it is n divine effort
that belongs to different, higher
order OF things; an effort that re-
ceives the sanction in reason, and the
approval of God. And 1t is Just here
in this higher, broader world-where
love found a manager and cross
that we behold Jesus of Nazareth
bearing witness to the tender yearn-
ings OF the great heart of God. En-
during all things, and forgiving all;
making every sacrifice, even sunto
death, rather than break the great
law of the kingdom-tho law of sac
rificial love.
Having spoken the Fathers mes

this Man of Sorrows was willing to
so out with no glory save the glory
of the cross: no crown but the crown
of thorns; no robe but the robe of
mockery: no scepter but n broken
reed: no shouts but the shouts of de-
Iision. Oh, what a mighty death,
what splendor of selfsaciifice was
enacted upon that rough, brutal In
strument Of torture outlined against
the Judean sky. and by One who had
such a supreme consciousness OF di-

Hugh Jennings, OF the Tigers. is quot
ed as saying that II George Kaiser
ling. former Fed. has been secured by
the Detroit club he had no part in the
deal. He Is willing to admit, however.
that he can use another pitcher or TWO.
Kaiserling was with the indianapolis
team before he jumped to the Feds. He
failed to make good there and when
slated for release did a flop. He was
one or the original Feds and appears TO
have developed into a pretty good
pitcher, thanks largely to the tutoring
OF Bill Phillips.
Calvin Daubert, brother of Jake Dau-
bert. OF the Brooklyn Dodgers. was
killed in a coal mine at Pottsville, Pa.
the other day. Jake and the dead man
were close pals. and the tragedy has de-
pressed the Brooklyn player greatly.

state Department Officials Puzzled
Over Action of England in De-

account for the action of the British
authorities in holding up Thomas
Hughes Kelly of New York, treasurer
of the Irish relief fund, his wife and
his assistant, Joe Smith, on their ar.
hival at Liverpool. Kelly carried $780,
coo to be distributed in the relief of
Irish residents who suffered as a re-
suit of the recent revolt. His and his
assistants passports were in absolute
ly correct order, and, in addition, Kelly
carried with him warm letter of in
PRODUCTION from Secretary of States
Lansing to Ambassador Page at Lon
don.
The state department has asked Am
bassador Page for report on the
case. Until it is received nothing can
be done.

This announcement was made to the

eign trade department. The state
ment added:
I'VE have other precautionary lists
for private use, such as censored and
banking lists, but they are only for the
purpose of observing kilograms and
correspondence. No penalty attaches
to British subjects trading with firms
on such lists. Names may be added
or removed from the published list
from time to time"
The blacklist referred to was that
naming a number of American firms
with which Britons were prohibited
from trading because of their Teutonic
connections.

The proceedings have been private,

the tribunal will advise the release of

The announcement that Sir Roger

has caused no surprise, as it was GER
tain that a date for the execution
would be set. The question of a re-

influences are being exerted in behalf
of the leader of the Irish rebellion.

ARMY vExES MEXICO
cARRANZA SAYS REcoNsTRuc-
TON WORK is HINDERED.
Mexican Chief Confident His Soldiers
Will Be Able to RepeI Attacks of
Villa and Reactionaries.

Mexico City, July 27.-General Car
rama, in an interview discussed the
conference to be held between the del
egates representing Mexico and those
of the United StRees TOR the purpose
of reaching an arrangement relative
to the withdrawal of the American
troops now in Mexico and patrolling
the frontier in such a manner as to
prevent further border raids. Gen
eral Carranza also discussed the eco
nomic, political and military situation
in Mexico.
Late papers from the United
States" said General Carranza, de
clare that my government is threat
ened on the north by an army Of 49,
600 men led by Villa, who is threaten
ing the city of Torreon. On the SOUTH
they say, | am attacked by an army
led by reactionaries and clericals
with plenty of money and men. Well,
all l can say is, let them come, and
win knock them on the head singly
or united, as / have done before.
"As a matter of fact, you know per-
fectly well that villa is followed by
a few ill-fed, miserable bandits, and
the reputed army of the south is a
myth. But, even if these two imagln-
airy armies have existence in fact,
have every confidence that my own
soldiers will take care of them, as
they did in the time of Huerta.
What is bothering US at the present
time is the presence of American
troops on Mexican soil. This is him
dering our work of reconstruction and
pacitication, because it gives eneour-
agement to the lawless elements of our
population. 1t is to obviate this that
the coming conference will be held"
"Will this conference be limited to
the question of the withdrawal of the
American troops?" General Carranza
was asked.
That is a question which / cannot
answer definitely at this time" replied
the first chief, "but you can be as
sured that the withdrawal of the
troops and the vigilance of the border
are the points of prime interest for
the Mexican government"
