REFUSE AMNESTY ID
 MILITARY PRISONERS

LEAVENWORTH, Kas., July 22- Demands of prisoners confined in the United States disciplinary barracks at Fort Leavenworth that they be grant ed amnesty and that their plea for freedom be referred to President Will son, had not been granted tonight, it was announced by Colonel Sedgwick Rice commandant at the fort.
 About three-fourths of the 2.3oO men in the disciplinary barracks refused to leave their quarters for work this morning, said Colonel Rice tonight.
 They have demanded general am nesty, declaring they will not return 10 work until they obtain a promise that they will be set free. They ask of the prison officials that this de- mand be placed before President Will son, but that has not been done All that has been done thus far is to tele- graph a full report of the situation to the adjutant general of the army, who. under the law, is directly in charge of all disciplinary barracks.
 Aside from demanding general am nesty they made some complaints about food that is furnished soldiers in the army"
 Colonel Rice added that all is quiet at the barracks tonight and only reg ular guards are on duty.
 This is the third strike that has talk en place at the disciplinary barracks in the past six months.

With a loud voice he ordered the Frenchmen to stand back, at the same time showing the line they should hold. For a moment the crowd receded, but again pressed forward, and Bernhardi shouted:
 T shall shoot every person who sets foot on this open space"
 Favre wrote:
 Reduced to submit to the will Of the conqueror, we could not hope for any conditions except those dictated by his interest. From the day he drew the sword he had resolved, if we were beaten, to snatch two provinces from us. The conquest of part of our terri tory appeared to him to be the best homage that could be rendered. To the wishes of the populations he was in- cooperating in his empire, or to the views of the powers. which had so often called attention to the necessity of preserving European equilibrium, he showed the most supreme contempt

Juarez tonight by Gen. Ysidro Cordona, who arrived on the same train. He said this was an- nounced in an official military bull letin in Chihuahua City by Gen. Manuel Dieguez.
 The Americans were inclined to doubt the report that Villa and Angeles intended going to Japan, saying this was probably given out by Villa to explain his reason for disbanding his forces. They said Villa would probably retire to the Durango mountains until ready to resume the campaign in the fall.
 Villa partisans here tonight de- nied the reports that Villa was disbanding his men, and claimed rebels under Nicholas Fernandez captured wagon train of ammu- milton from the Carranza troops re- gently.

SEE SERIOUS
TROUB[ENEAR
WITH MEXICO

A further and serious strain has
been put upon relations between this
country and Mexico by the KIDNAPPING
and holding for ransom Of William
o. Jenkins, United States consular
agent, officials admitted today.
The incident is regarded as espe-
cislly fragrant because Of the size of
the ransom, s150.0O0, the bandits who
kidnapped jenkins are demanding, and
because the kidnapped man is an Of
hcisl OF the United States Govern
meht.
Yesterday recalled the sending Of
another note several months ago
warning that strong action might be
taken by this country if Carranza
showed any unwillingness or inability
to protect Americans. At that time,
Il was said, that the first step in
carrying out this threat would be
withdrawal OF American support from
Carranzs-
Talk of this step and the interven-
tion talk which arises at each new
Mexican incident was heard here to-
day, but officials declared there is no
foundation for IL at present.
The Myers resolution calling for
armed force in Mexico was consid-
cred the strongest that has been in
troduced on the Mexican question for
some time Passed by the Senate, 1T
would amount to a declaration of war
on Mexico. It was not discussed yes
terday, but Senator Myers said he
would talk on 1t tomorrow.
Jenkins is said to be held by rebel
bandits who are under leadership of
FREDERICK Cordoba and Juan liberia.
Representatives Of Jenkins are re-
ported to have left Pueblo yesterday
to confer with the bandit leaders con-
cerning jenkins release.
Mrs. Jenkins Is at Mexoci City and
the State Department has advised her
that everything possible is being done
- effect her husbands release.

never have the good times they them
selves enjoy.
1t is no easy matter. But there are
little ways in which it can be done,
and it should be done.
Look for the Dark Side.
In little ways one can teach small
favorites OF the Gods .to realize pow

sides of other peoples lives. &,
OF course. one does not want to
sadden childhood, Nhich should be
happy time. But the young years are
the plastic years, and IL is then that
the lessons of consideration and sac
rifice for others can be most lastingly
taught. / quite admit that the war
brought unexampled prosperity to the
working classes. When the war
broke out everyone anticipated that
the poor would suffer horribly, and
the Prince of Wales opened a special
fund on their behalf, to which enor-
nous sums were subscribed.
Prosperity Artificial
But with separation allowances
coming in regularly in families where
the father was fighting, abundant en-
ployment at high wages to those left
behind. and the restrictions of drink
ing, many, many humble households
were in clover for four years. 1 even
read the other day that the big sur
plus left from the Prince Of Wales
fund is being donated to the help OF
disabled officers who cannot find suit
able jobs.
This prosperity. however, was arti-
fetal and the days of artificial plenty
are over. We are solemnly warned
that we can no longer spend freely;
that in order to pay back our debts,
vie must practice thrift with
bigT.
This winter will be a hard one for
everybody-even for those who learn
ed to appreciate what they had never
had the chance to appreciate before
little 1uxuries. The poor will have
to retrench as the rich have had to
learn. But the margin between COM
fort and destitution is terribly near
for the poor, while destitution is be-
yond the horizon even of the rich.
Rich Know No "Hard Timea.-
Hard times" for the rich means
a house the less, or a motor car the
less. or a holiday the less.
For the poor it may mean actual
want
Those who were poor before the
war, and comparatively rich while war
lasted, will be very likely now, with
higher wages balanced by higher
prices and taxations. be poor again.
There is more need than ever that
those who have should realize the
hard lot of those who have not, and
do all they can to mitigate that hard
lot.
1t should be for the rich man to
see how he can better the conditions
Of life of his poorer brother. A lit
tie more real help on these lines
would go long way toward bring
ing about a real democracy.
