PEACE TALK IN AUSTRIA
 GROWS WITHOUT CHECK

LONDON, April 2O.-Peace talk in Austria Hungary is growing, with but little check from the government. ac- cording to advices received here to- day A dispatch from The Hague quotes the Vienna correspondent of the Frankfurter Zeitung as saying the Prussian conservatives must realize that the war aims of the Austria Hun gary people are different from those of Germany and that political opinions differ also. One significant paragraph of the dispatch says:
 German can hardly make peace dependent on the possibility of annex ing territory"
 The Eossichc Zeitung says that tn } greater part of the Russian people want peace and that a Russian peace would be more conducive to German interests than to Austrian-lIungar interests.
 An Amsterdam dispatch says that Emperor Charles of Russia intends to make q public statement shortly on the peace efforts of the Central pow CTS.

GERMANS IN MEXICO
 CITY ARE DRILLING

WASHINGTON, D. C., April 20.--. Six thousand Germans are in Mex ico City and are drilling regularly. according to word brought to this city yesterday by Randall Rogers, chief officer of the steamer George w. El- der. He said:
 I received the information from a source which I do not question. The facts are substantiated by small ac- counts in Mexican papers of the drill ing. In addition the Germans are also reported to be directing the construc- ton of works and Notifications on the high hills which back the city and port of Manzanillo. My informants stated that guns of a large calibre were being mounted there. The news that Notifications were being con structed was also in the Mexican pa pers.
 Rogers also reported the loss of the salvage tug Pilot, which was lost in the Gulf of Tehuantepec about March 1. The vessel was going from Salina Cruz to Ocos, where the steamer Sesostris was stranded. The tug was loaded down with heavy anchors and the general opinion is that "tabasco" wind swept down the Te- huantepec valley and caught the tug before it could run to shelter, sinking it. This peculiar wind, according to Rogers, has caught numbers of boats in the same way. Captain Bryant, in command of the dredger Mexico, cruised about all over the gulf in an effort to locate wreckage. but was unsuccessful. The Sesostris was fioated successfully while the George w. Elder was at Acautla and is now on its way north. For several years in has lain stranded over a ships length inland and it's engines have been furnishing electric light and power for the town of Ocos.
 The Elder brought into port 23,00O bags of coffee and her voyage con- pleted the last trip she will run un- der present charter for the Pacific Mail Company.

The winter season with fewer
birds is less confusing for identifying
birds than is tho migration or nesting

terest to know that the juncoes arc
gathering in flocks preparing FOR their
northward journey. The robins. king

chickudocs arc to be seen in the trcee
about the city. The Julia Davis park
offers excellent opportunity for the
study Of other winter residents. The
