GERMANS TALK OF WELDING.
Reply to Wilson Note Decided Upon
and Press Comments Indicate
Attempt at Cancellation.

Berlin, April 25.-The imperial chan
cellor, DIR. Won Bethmann-Hollweg. re-
turned to Berlin Sunday. which would
seem to justify the assumption that
the empires responsible leaders have
finished consideration of the Ameri-
can note and reached the decision
concerning Germany's reply.
The chancellor's return, it is under
stood, was not expected until today;
hence. a general decision appears to
have been reached earlier than looked
for. There is no intimation of when
the reply will be formulated, but there
seems to be much Significance in the
fact that the Lokal Anzeiger, which is
consistently well informed, says tS>.
"Germany's strength and prestige
have so increased in the last twenty
months in the eyes OF the whole
world that the German government
has, indeed. only to follow the COM

For OiIing Machinery.

The operation Of oiling machinery.
especially where 1t is desirable that
the oil should be kept from the hands
and clothing Of the operator, has been
devised recently in making use of the
well-known collapsible lead capsules.
SO widely used for artists colors. drug
gists' products. paste, ETC.. in the Unit
ed States. The capsules are provided
with a screw thread. which is screwed
into an adapter. which in turn is
fastened to the part to be fabricated.
The lead capsule and the brass
adapter make a tight joint. and all
that is necessary is to apply pressure
from time to time. as desired. When
the grease capsule is emptied. one
merely unscrews 1t and rrts new
one in its place. No refllling is neces-
sary. and the pressure of the fingers
is usually suffi cient to force the grease
into the bearing.

Rawlings, Wyo., April 25.-Once too
often the parlor car bandit of the
Union Pacific road made his smiling
appearance in spectacular robbery.
1t was going to be his last job" and
he bungled it. He was trailed, cor
nered and captured Saturday after
neon in sandy bend of the Platte
river, twenty miles north of Fort
Steele. Wyo., a station eight miles
east of Rawlins. He had fled on foo,
more than thirty miles from the point
where he jumped off the California
Limited Friday night. A posse of 200
mounted men, flanked by automobiles,
surrounded him in a wide circle.
With Wyomings death penalty for
train robbery over his head and with
$1,000 reward out for him, dead or
alive, he refused to fire on his captors.
He "had the drop" on the first man to
overtake him, City Marshal William
Hayes of Walcott, but as the latter
turned to race for help the bandit
threw down his revolver and called to
him: Come and get me. won't
shoot What's the use?"
Hayes. suspecting treachery, whipped
out his own gun and fired. The shot
went wild and the robber laughed,
throwing up his hands to show he was
unarmed. The marshal kept him COW
cred with his weapon until the rest OF
the posse rode up.
The bandit said his name was Will
lam l.. Carlisle, % years old, and that
he had been employed recently on the
Joe Starr ranch. twenty miles north
west of Cheyenne. He confessed al
once to Fridays holdup and to the
robbery of the Overland Limited near
Cheyenne, April 4, and of the Portland
Flyer near Rock Springs. Feb. Q.
Carlisle was brought to Rawlins and
lodged in the county jail.

Cuttjnu EnuIish Trees.

England has $4,000 acres of crown
forests. containing magnificent trees
untouched by the woodman's ak. Now
they are to go. England needs the
lumber and has appealed to Canada
to provide battalion of axmen. Need
less to say, Canada has responded
gladly. There is now organizing q
battalion of 1900 experienced BUSH
men, who will wear the khaki. be sub
ject to military direction and WELD
their axes on the ancestral oaks Of
the motherland. Soon the music of
their blows will be heard ringing
through the great New forest Of Hamp-
shire and Dean forest, in Gloucester
shire. England must have the wood.
but 1t is sad to think of these glorious
old trees happening. Many of the
woodsmen will come from Quebec.

Preside, Tex, April 24.-A messen-
ger has reached Ojinaga, opposite
here, with the report that Villa is at
Aqua Chile, on Vicenti ranch, with 200
followers. Aqua Chile is 100 miles
south of Ojinaga and about the same
distance east of chihuahua City. in
the Camargo district. One hundred
and fifty Carranzistas are encamped
on the Conchas river, about four miles
from Ojinaga. The report that the
Ojinaga garrison had been reinforced
is denied by the commander of the
garrison, who made his denial to mil
itary authorities here. There has been
no explanation of the presence of
Carranzistas near Ojinaga. 1t is said
they will endeavor to prevent the
crossing of any American troops from
this point.
1t is known authoritatively that Col.
Jose Riojas will be transferred from
Ojinaga. The name of his successor
has not been made known. Aqua
Chile is on an established highway 80
miles from Santa Rosalia. The latter
town is on the national railway. 1t is
possible the bandit chieftain has been
in hiding near Noriega.

leans themselves who know the facts,
and who are too fair-minded to let q
false statement go unchallenged. A
case in point arises out of a statement
supposed to be made by a resident Of

which the condition of settlers in this
country was painted in a very bad

something be done to keep Americans
from going to Canada, and saying that
that government was run by the rail-
roads, banks and manufacturers; that
once a man got there he never could
get away. Had this man published
that letter over his own signature
there is no doubt but he could get out
of Canada.
No country will do as much to help
a man to get on his feet. II he tries to
help himself. as Canada. I know of

visions, feed, seed grain and fuel. and
