edition. for he is first a naturalist
and then a poet. No trace OF the SEN
timental school OF natural history will
lie found in him. In the first essay
he defines himself in a way and his
point Of view: he has no use for
stuffed specimens. but seeks his birds
in the open. The delightful essays
thai follow tell of adventures in fol-
lowing up the birds in their natural
setting and involve wanderlngs through
the beautiful English country. though
the particular birds he Ia In quest OF

In a room OF the huge building in
Washington, which houses the State
War and Navy departments, half a
dozen men sat about long mahog-
any table. Though they were in ci-
william dress, the fashion in which they
wore their clothes and the ereetness
OF their carriage stamped them un-
mistakably as men who were more
at ease in uniform than in the garb
OF civil life. These lean, grizzled,
taeiturn men comprised the naval
board. and it was on their judgment
and experience that the American
people depended for the efficiency Of
the gray fighting craft which form
the nations first line Of defense.

/ the purpose of the U. S., it could have
stepped into Mexico under advan-
tageOUs circumstances during the
revolution between rival factions.
The government of the U. S. instead
awaited with patience the cOnsUm-
nation of the revolution, hoping that
Mexico would, through their own eff
forts, restore peace and establish an
orderly government.
In the face of this patience and
trust, which has lasted during
months of repeated OUtrages against
the U. S. and outbreaks in Mexico,
the note deplOres that it should now
be accused of bad faith and declares
its belief that such impUtations are
universally known to be without the
least shadow of justification in fact.
It concludes with positive refusal
to take the troops out of Mexico I'M
til the eMXiCan government will as
sumo and effectively exercise such
responsibility as will prevent further
invasion of the territory of the U. S.
and remove the peril which Ameri-
cans along the international boun-
Diary have borne so long with pa
tience and fOrbearance.
BIUntly the note told Carranza that
this government cannot recede from
its settled determination to maintain
its national rights" and to prevent
further raids across the boundary.
The high lights of the note were:
Resentment of CarTanza's discour-
teOus tone and temper in his last
note.
Charges that bandits have gone
unhampered and unpublished in at
lacking Americans.
Recitation of scores of instances
of banditTy.
Charges that the CaTTanza regime
had been Indifferent to atrocities and
even encouraged and aided some of
the leaders of these.

dits)," said the note, 'and to believe
that in case of a refusal to retire
these troops there is no further re-
course than to defend its territory by
an appeal to arms, for the govern
ment of the U. S. would surely-,be
lacking in sincerity and friendship if
it did not frankly impress upon the
de facto government that the exc
cution of this threat will lead to the
gravest consequences.
The administration declares that
the hostility Of MeXicans presumed
to be loyal to the defactO government
halted the pursuit of Villa at PaTTal
and prevented putting an end to sys-
tematic raids against Americans, and
tina the MexiCans thus arrayed
themselves on the side of Outlawry
and became in effect the protectors
of Villa and his band.
Regarding CaTTanza's claim that
the troops entered Mexico without
firstObtaining the consent or permits
sion o fthe defactO government, the
note declares that this was done be-
cause Of the necessity of instant &C
ton, but that subsequent cOrrespon-
dence and events have demonstrated
to the satisfaction of this govern
ment that CarTanza would not have
entered into any agreement provid-
ing for an effective plan for the cap
ture and destruction of the Villa
band.
Charges in CaTTanza's note to this
government regarding influences in
America that have sought to bring
about intervention are answered by
citation of infammatOTy articles
that have appeared in Mexican news
papers despite power of censor held
by CaTTanZa.
