BEYOND THE SKYLINE

(By C. Edward Conc)
 We yearned beyond the skyline,
 Where the strangS roads go down.
 -Rudyard kipling. Twas a sky line rough and ragged
 That was given us to view, And the peaks, snowcapped and jagged,
 Ever pierced the ether blue; And the Sun, bent on adorning
 With his strong, sure strokes, and boll, Painted them at eve end morning
 Painted them with red raw gold And we yearned beyond that skyline,
 With wistful wish, to know What was hidden by that high-line,
 Clst'ning with eternal snow As we yearned and wished and wondered
 Of the secrets there untoll, As the glaciers growled and thundered,
 Came the whisper, Red raw gold!'' With the whisper ceased our slumbers!
 With the whisper came the sign, And the bodest of our numbers
 Headed for that rugged line Pushed into that unknown vastness,
 And with trails uncut, untried, Passed into that mountain fastneSs,
 Where some cursed, and others cried With OUT sleds all racked and broken,
 And our clothes woln, torn and soiled, With a nameless dread unspoken,
 Strangely silent, on we toiled- Through dark canyons, grim death facing Us at every step we took, For the roaring waters racing Dropped to depths We dare not look, Treeles5 passes, stern, forbidding, Far above the timber line, Unused passes, all but hidden, Where fogs weep and c2ld winds whine Passes that were steep and winding These we scaled and onward passed Aud with labor that was grinding
 Reached the ranges top at last, Reached that sky line, red gold painted,
 Beyond which we'd dreamed and yearrcd. Some had died, and others fa.nted; Not few had backward turned; And the labor seemed uncnGlng
 For the goal was yet unwon. Each to his own will attending,
 There the tolsome search begun. By the ways that we were faring We began the eager quest, For each other little caring,
 Nor cared we for need of rest; But with labor unremittiEg,
 Digging for the precious gcId. 1 Tired careless, and unWittrg
 Lies we to each other told. Some lost health, and some iost reason! 1 Some were frozen, some were staryed ! And meuy graves within a season | Marked we there, with stones uncaryel Gold we found-aye, red and shinng | Others came, and towns were built; ! Starved ones turned to sumptuous dining, | Qualrels rose, and blood was split. ! Thus came the ending to our yearning! 1 Came the ending of our tolls; i With the ehres dinlly burning
 Yet within US came the spells. Down, far down, below that hieh-line,
 We grew grabbed, gray and old. 1 Of the things beyond the skyline,
 Death we found, and RED RAW GCID'

LATEST PHASE OF THE MEXICAN SITUATION

As was to be expected, the murder of nearly a score of Americans in Mexico has revived the de- mand for intervention by the United States in the affairs of the republic of Mexico. And the demand promises to be more nsstent in the event that Car ranza should fail to capture and punish the mur- derers What, if any, effect the approaching cleo ton will have upon the efforts of the opponents of President Wilson to make his position more danger ous remains to be seen. That there are those who are unpatriotc enough to take advantage of the difficulties which beset the administration for poiti cal purposes there IS doubt
 President Wilson's administration IS at present beset on all sides with problems such as probably American president has ever before had to contend with The anxiety of the President and his advisers to put the nation in state of preparedness for may have significance which the people as whole do not yet realize What influence recent interna- tional controversies have had in changing Wilson the paci6st into Wilson the advocate of military measures for the nations defense can only be sur- missed But it seems probable that that influence has been determining one.
 There have been vague rumors tor some tune that foreign influence has been at work stirring up further discord in Mexico, and the recent disclosures of plots and conspracies that have intermeshed the manufacturing industries of the country for months past involves, as many writers have put it, state of warfare in the United States How far these rev. eIaons affect our intercourse with other nations has

DIVORCED AND REWED,
LIEUT.. CRONAN SUED
"Wife" Seeks to Annul Decree and
Second Marriage to Grants

WOULD ESTABLISH RIGHTS.
She Petitions San Francisco to Set A
side Legal Action and Reinstate
Her in His Household.

Uncsram5ling an effectively scram-
bled order of eggs is a simple culina-
~ task compared to the one Marie
Cronan. once wife of Lieut.-Comman
mander William P. Cronan, L. S. ~
has set for herself.
Mrs Cronan hopes to turn back the
machinery of The courts. have her di-
vorce from the naval officer declared
invalid his marriage to the former
Nell Grant. granddaughter of President
L. :. Grant, set aside and herself re-
instated as his legal wife.
News of the first step in this domes-
tic project reached New York yester-
day in the form of an announcement
that Mrs. Cronon the first had petit
toned the courts of san Francisco TO
set aside the divorce granted her by
Judge Thomas F. Graham of Califor
MIA. in 1910 She offers as grounds for
her plea statement her former hus
band is quoted as making in the tria'
of a late case in Washington that the
divorce was obtained through fraud
and collision"
The difficulties of the original Mrs.
Cronan and Lieutenant-Comma
Cronan date, according TO his story,
from the Gay they were married in
1907 in New York The naval officer
testified later that he was under the
influence of liquor when he married
her. and that he had paid little atten-
ton to her after the ceremon~
Crcnan said he had sought law
yer's advice about getting a divorce,
and had been told that he would do
better to induce his wife to obtain one
from him. Whatever his arrangement
might have been. Mrs. Cronan filed suit
and obtained a decree in 1910.
Then began the more serious diff
culties OF the pair Mrs Cronan filed
suit for $1,000, which she said her hus-
band promised TO pay her if she would
obtain the divorce The naval officer
contested this suit on the ground that
such a payment would be contrary to
the public policy.
1t was in the trial of the case in
Washington that he is said to have
made the statement now being used
against him concerning the fraud and
collision in the divorce proceedings.
Meanwhile Lieutenant Cronan was
married to Miss Nell Grant, grand
daughter of the Civil War General ami
President in 1913
Favorable action by the courts on
the claims now made by Mrs. Cronan
would automatically annul the second
marriage and reinstate her as the legal
wife of the man who testified that he
never had actually loved her.
