LUNDIN and HARRISON
Brundage Shows How They
Were to Split the Judicial
Ticket Between Them.

Edward J. Brundage in Chicago
Evening Post: 80 far as the nam.
Ing of the judicial ticket elected last
June is concerned, think LundiIs
plan, which the mayor finally adopted
after he had directed a Republican
ticket in a conference with Charles
Barrett, Homer Galpin and Charles
A. Williams, at Peoria, would have
been suicidal to the Republican party.
The cold proposition advanced by
Fred Lundin was to divide the ticket
with the Carter Harrison Democrats.
When mention was made OF the six
new judges, Lundlin suggested they
be divided equally. told Lundlin
then that the placing of these men
upon the bench by agreement of three
or four political leaders was contrary
to the principles of Republicanism,
and II 1t were done revolt would
follow, the Progressives would call a
convention and name a ticket and
the bar would support their ticket.
Lundin said he did not care anything
| about the Progressives. 1t was q
very simple matter to dispose of-in
his own words: LET Deneen take
one. you (meaning mel take one. and
Thompson the other, and then give
the Carter Harrison fellows three"

Marguerite Sylvia.

Paris, March pa pretty little ro-
nance came to happy climax short
while ago when Marguerite Sylvia, the
beautiful Belgian actress-singer, who
has been acclaimed by Paris, Berlin,
London and New York, was led to the
altar by an American birdman, Lieu
tenant Bernard l.. Smith, attached to
the American embassy at Paris.
Shortly after the outbreak of the
war Uncle Sam sent Lieutenant Smith
to France to learn about flying and
how it is done in war time. A few
trips out over the lines to observe
trench warfare from the birds view
point and his observations aloft were
completed. He was sitting at his desk
in the embassy one day when a vision
of loneliness came and stood before
him and asked if he would wise her
passport. That wasn't a part of his
duties; but he counted himself lucky
that the vision thought so.
All l saw or heard was a pair of
the largest, deepest, most expressive
eyes that ever were, and voice like
a gold bell" he told a friend after
ward.
1t was case of love atNfirst sight
with the lieutenant. He discovered
that his fair visitor was the famous
Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1916-03-23

Marguerite Sylvia, but he was not
daunted First he decided that he
would hear the lady sing. She was
doing Carmen at the Comique. The
lieutenant went and saw. Then he
found someone who knew the singer.
They were introduced.
After that everything went lovely
for the pair, and a short while ago
they were married in the Church OF
Notre Dame at Deschamps.
To the world, Marguerite Sylvia
story has been romance since, at is,
she ran away from her mother in Bel
GUM and went to London to be an &C
tress. Beerbohm Tree saw her in some
purely physical part and decided she
was worth developing. In 1896 he took
her to New York, and she made her
bow there as the player queen in
Hamlet" in which brief part she
managed to turn herself to the amuse-
ment of the house by her inability to
remember her English. Beerbohm
Tree gave it up, but not so the ambi-
tious Sylvia.
Four years later she twinkled out
as a star Of musical comedy. The
pulchritudinous girl who had failed in
Hamlet made an unforgettable Prin-
cess Chic.

The class pictures for the Watch

ture to be hung in the high school hall
were next discussed by the class and
it was decided to have the Watch
Tower pictures taken in ordinary
dress and the class pictures to be
taken in caps and gowns. 1t was at
first thought that each individual
ought to take but one picture for both
purposes and thus relieve the pho
tographer from being compelled to
wait many months, as has heretofore
been done, in order to secure all the
pictures for the class group. However,

this city out Of a total population Of
1000 and the majority of the Mexi-
cans belong to the lowest and most
ignorant portion of the people
The police last night arrested be-
tween Is and 20 Mexicans suspected
Of being engaged in anti-American
plotting. The most important arrest
was that of Melchor Herrera, brother
arrested as he crossed the information
al bridge after prolonged conference
with General Gavira at Juarez. Ac-
cOrding to the police they have proof
that a plot had actually been perfected
by Herrera and his associates to start
rioting on a large scale in Ell Paso.
Two hundred men were said to have
been enlisted as nucleus, having
been won over by glittering promises
of the booty they would gain. The po-
lice story goes that the plans Of Her
rera anticipated that as soon as the
rioting started large numbers of Mexi-
cans would join them.
Confirmation Lacking.
Washington, March 23.-Confirma-
ton of the report that the Carranza
garrison of 1000, under Luis Herrera,
at Chihuahua, had revolted and Joined
Villa, was still lacking today at the
war department, although a dispatch
TO that effect was passed last night by
the United States army censor at CO.
lumbus. The war department insist
ed that General Funston's message
last night stated merely that 1T Is
reported" that the revolt had occur
red, adding that there was no con-
firmation.
No new advices had reached the de-
partment, officials said, and it was de-
clared there was no indication in any
message received since the American
expedition started into Mexico that
the troops had fired a shot or been
fired upon.
General Funston's problem is to
dispose Of the troops at his command
in such fashion as to insure the line
Of communication behind the force In
Mexico.
Baker Prefers Silence.
Secretary Baker, when asked today
If General Funston has asked for more
relnforcements since the 5th cavalry
and oath infantry were ordered to ioin
| him, said:
Il think | will not answer that
question"
A message from General Funston
last night said the motor truck trains
had satisfactorily solved the problem
OF getting supplies to the advance col
umn. General Funston had been I'M
easy, 1t was said, over the supply sit
uatlon, but had reported no shortage.
The navy department was without
advices from Tampico, where a dis
quieting situation has been indicated
IN unofficial reports. A message from
Admiral Winslow on the west coast
said quiet prevailed at Ensenada
Lower California.

gowns it was thought that it would
be best to wear these for the class
picture, and at the same time it was
felt that the pictures in the Watch
Tower should be representations OF
the class members in everyday cos
tune.
The names of the ushers for "Go-to-
School" week were read by Edgar
James. president Of the class, and ap-
proved. A vote was also taken to
secure the choice of the class for the

mon should be given. The decision
will be submitted to the board OF edu-
cation, which will give the final de.
cision.

were regarded with apprehension a,
this fort The Mexican consul here
continued to deny their truth and re-
iterated his assertion that Herrera
had not taken the field.
Early morning reports at Fort Sam
Houston did not indicate any marked
development in the campaign against
Villa.
Private advices reaching FL Paso to-
day confirmed reports that General
Luis Herrera had Joined Villa and left
little room for doubt that Mexican af-
fairs had reached a point fraught with
far reaching and perhaps serious con-
sequences to this country
Not only was it accepted here as
definite that Herrera had declared
against both Carranza and the United
States, but it was asserted with equal
confidence that Torrean was also in
the hands of the Villa forces and that
all northern Mexico was seething with
open rebellion against the de facto
government.
Plan Drastic Action.
So grave was the situation regarded
here that the military authorities
planned today drastic steps to relieve
all Mexicans in Ell Paso of any arms
they might have concealed in their
houses and before what would be prac-
tically martial law in little Chihua-
hua"-the heart of Ell Pasos Mexican
section.
All night soldiers in machine gun de-
tachments waited under arms for any
emergency and the police reserves,
equipped with rifles, were also held
ready.
1t is understood that government Of
ficials here have sent to Washington a
recommendation, couched in the
strongest terms, urging that steps be
taken to disarm all Mexicans along
the border
In Juarez bitter feud exists be-
tween the mayor. Manuel Prieto, and
the military commander, General Ga
briel Gavira. Prieto is a staunch Car
ranzista, while Gavira is devoted to
the interests of General Oregon. Car
ranZa's minister of war, but who at
the same time is known to be bitterly
hostile to the first chiefs program, es-
pecially as it relates TO cooperation
with Americans. Gavira's troops are
divided between Obregonistas and for
mer Villistas
Police Halt Mexican Plot.
Whatever may happen in Juarez
there is no supposition here that any
attack would be made on FL Paso from
the other side of the river. but there
is the greatest apprehension that an
outbreak on one side would be fol-
lowed by an outbreak on the other.
There are about $4,000 NeyiCaus in
