Safety Pin A Device That Holds Babies Together

that it has been impaled upon a long,

relief to scores of husbands who have

in doing so have run a two inch safety
pin through their left thumb. If con-

married life.
A popular form of safety pin Is the

nevertheless it tends to keep the name
Of FL Paso before the world. Close on
the heels Of the massacre OF the IS
Americans at Santa Ysabel, and which
was published in every paper of the

Twin Cities Are Keeping Cool

Locally the situation continues most favorable
Since the Columbus attack nothing has occurred on
either side of the river to any apprehension OF
local disturbance If there is any evil talk 1t is all
beneath the surface of things Outwardly everything
is calm, and has been calm since the dreadful news
first came.
Mexican officials, though not exactly enthusiastic
about the announced movement of an American force
into Mexico to pursue the Villa bandits, have expressed
no intention to regard the movement in hostile way
II is realized among them that the question is broad
political one for the higher authorities to handle as
their Judgment dictates and not for subordinate no
matter how loyal to Mexico and the "rst chief" to
act upon alone The higher authorities seem to have
accepted the proposal of the American government in
entire good faith.
On the FL Paso side most people, those Of intelligence
and of solid interest in the welfare of the city,
content to let things take their directed from
the national capital through military channels There
has been open talk Of local organization or Of local
action Of any sort by way of reprsa and there should
be none. The questions awaiting settlement are ma
tona not local. and the national authorities must not
be hampered by local interference.
The paramount duty of Americans and Mexicans
alike in Fl PasO and Juarez and in the Rio Grande
valley, is to keep cool maintain peace, and avoid any
word OF act that might tend to excite unruly elements
There plenty of that sort around here both Amer
leans and Mexicans and the common safety demands
that they shall be kept in control In of any local
emergency, it will become the duty of all responsible
and respectable citizens to offer their services in
operation with the civil and military authorities to
protect life and property but far there is nothing
to indicate that there will be any emergency.
