cept into Albania, where hostile
trlbesmen must be faced. Montenegro
has asked Austro-H Hungary for peace,
and her request has been granted.
The unconditional laying down Of
arms by Montenegro was made the
basis Of the opening OF peace negotia-
tons, and Montenegro accepted these
terms imposed by the dual monarchy.
This announcement was made to
the Hungarian parliament by Premier
Tisza, and 1t met with an ovation on
the part of the members of the cham
Der. Thus comes the first withdrawal
of any belligerent from either of the
alliances that have been fighting
with each other since August, 1914
It had been conceded for days that
the situation in Montenegro was a
critical one. Although the army of
the little kingdom fought valiantly

RIVAL FACTIONS
IN CHURCH RIOT
ONE KILLED AND MORE THAN
a. DOZEN INJURED IN CLASH
IN PENNSYLVANIA.
Knives, RevoIvers and Clubs Play a
Prominent Part In Riot, Eleven
State Troopers Being
Among injured.

Scranton, Pa.-Rioting between
rival factions at the Church OF the
Sacred Heart of Jesus in Dupont, near
here. on Sunday, resulted in the death
Of one man, the probable fatal injury Of
two others and the serious injury OF
at least dozen more. Knives, revol-
vers and clubs played a prominent
part In the riot, eleven state troopers
being among the injured.
George Greizor, the dead man, was
SHOT through the thigh, the bullets
severing an artery. Trooper Rois
Sumner Of Pottsville sustained frac-
ture at the base Of the skull and Jo-
seph Tinh Of Dupont was shot through
the lungs. Neither is expected TO live.
This church has been the scene Of
half dozen riots in as many weeks,
one faction Directing to the authority
exercised by Bishop M. ]. Hoban Of
the Catholic diocese of Scranton and
the other supporting him. Every
time newly appointed priest has
sought to hold services he has been
prevented from entering the church
by the opposing faction, but Sunday
arrangements had been made to say
mass under the protection of the sher-
if. who called on the state police. A
detail of dozen troopers was on
hand when services were to have
opened, but so forbidding was the
attitude of the crowd that call was
sent in for more troops and twenty
four responded.
Before the reinforcements arrived
the mob had attacked the first de-
tachment and when the second reach
ed the scene most OF the damage had
been done. A second riot ensued.

Death on American Soil.

Former Dictator Of Mexico Meets
Death on American Soil,
I Ell Paso, Texas.-General Victoriano
Huerta, former provisional president
Of Mexico, died at his home here at
1886 o'clock Thursday night
General Victoriano Huerta, who sue
ceeded President Francisco /. Madero
in executive power In Mexico City,
and later left Mexico, died of schero-
sis of the liver. He was surrounded
by his family and servants when the
end came.
General Victoriano Huerta was a
professional soldier. and as such he
had, up to the overthrow of President
Francisco Madero, been known for
his loyal support of the existing gov
ernments. He fought Loyalty for Pres
ident Profiro Diaz hntil his fall, and
when dag was no longer CHIEF, execu-
tive, Huerta fought for Francisco de
la Barra, the provisional president.
After Francisco Madero was elected,
Huerta found it to be his duty to sup
port one he had SO long fought as
rebel. His loyalty was not chal-
ienged until the Felix Diaz revolution
in Mexico City in February, 1918,
when the Madero government was
completely overthro%n and Huerta
himself elevated to the presidency.

The successful farmer of today
plans his work far all lad. Also, in
addition to making plans for the fu-
ture, the work is so timed and ar
ranged for in advance that much val
liable time is saved. Much time, and
perhaps cash, can be saved by TAX
ing account Of the conditions in the
garden and so ordering the work that
the undesirable things may not oc-
cur again. While the seasons mis-
takes are still fresh in the mind is
the proper time to arrange for cor
recting them and doing better in the
garden next year.
After the frosts have done their
work in the vegetable garden, all dead
vines and plants should be removed
and burned. Cucumber, melon and
squash vines, left ON the ground, may
harbor numberless eggs or insect
pests to bring disaster next year. II
potato land is to be planted again to
the same crop, all the dead tops
should be removed and burned. The
deadly germs Of disease are kept over
for next season in old tops. Ordinarily
the same piece is not planted to pota-
toes on two successive seasons, but
this may be the case In some in
stances, where 1t is customary to raise
a few extra early ones in the gar.
den.
Get the soil of the garden entirely
clear Of the vegetation of the past
year, then put on a good coat of ma.
nure. This gives the stable manure
a chance to rot somewhat, before
seeds are planted, very desirable

that the soil, originally sort OF muck,

Store Elevator Falls

The freight elevator in the Stew
art Mercantile Co. store fell the en-
tire length of its shaft Saturday
afternoon, loaded with canned
goods. The elevator had been load
ed at the upper floor, and just as
Harry Stewart stepped off from it,
it fell clear through to the basement,
smashing the heavy planks of it's shaft
and floor as though they were tooth
picks. At the crash, which was
deafening, customers and clerks
rushed to the shaft, and there was
general disorder for several minutes,
until it was ascertained that no one
was injured.
The accident resulted from the
fact that in bringing the elevator up,
the cable over the controlling pulley
in some manner slipped SO as to re-
lerase the holding device, and the
strain broke the part which controls
the safety catch. Nothing outside
the elevator and shaft was injured.
