IRISHMEfi PUBLISH
 LETTER ID WILSON

PARIS, May 21.-Frank P. Walsh 1 Edward r. Dunne and Michael J. Ryan, 1 he representatives of Irish societies fn the United States have made pubic a letter addressed to President Wilson, asking for permission to present 10 hlIn personally the matter Of safe conducts 10 Paris for Edward DeNalera, Arthur Griffith and Count Plunkett,' as well IS certain facts of grave import now in our pOssession|
 The letter gives the history of the case. showing that on April r, Colonel House requested Premier Lloyd George of England that safe conducts be given the three Irish leaders as representa- tives of Ireland, to the peace confer euce. On the day following, Colonel House informed them that the premier was willing to comply, but desired an interview with the Irish American del cgation before doing so.
 After two tentative dates had been set by the British premier, and not having been received, they were ad- vised by Colonel House to repeat the request through Secretary Lansing, Vho laid it before President Wilson, to whom an appeal for a personal hearing is now made. In conclusion, the letter Eays.
 "Iu view Of existing conditions m Ireland, that cannot be denied, to fore close it's case by refusing a hearing to fits representatives at this time would be disconsonant with the declared puT- pose for which the war has been prose cuted and out of harmony with the common principles of democracy"
 Colonel House said tonight that the latter was in error in stating that he had informed the delegation that dr, Lloyd George was willing to comply with their request for safe conducts for the Irish leaders. The request for safe conducts had been made, but no reply that the request would be com piled with.
 Colonel House says that the request was unofficial, except as the delegates stated. the president had referred them to him.

AiRPLANE COMPLEX MECHANISM

Excluding the engine altogether. the parts of the average bipIane in round figures amount to 10000. In the case of seaplane the figures are more than doubled, and 44.5O0 is the total.
 In further illustration of the multi pIc.ty of small parts in aircraft. it may be mentioned that the split pins alone in an army afrplane exceed 2,0O0. This ls because. in war office machines. no burning of the ends of screw threads is permitted; the admiralty, on the other hand, allows this method of fix ing 10 be used in places where the at tachment is never likely to be dis turhed.
 From the foregoing figures it is at once apparent that the assembling of an airplane of necessity involves a considerable degree of hand labor to say nothing of the extreme care that is essential to the building of a ma chine which is nothing if not extraor- dinary.

DENIES SONORA WILL

May 21.-Official denial rhat the ban on liquors in the state Of Sonora will be lifted, and that tsloons and gambling houses will be permitted To operate on the far side of the Ari- Eona boundary line, were received to- Hay by H. Valde, Mexican consular of ficer at Naco. The statement came from the governor of Sonora, in reply 10 a telegram from the consul. relative 10 the reported decree of the legis- lature.
 The telegram from the governor read:
 Your telegram of today received. The article published by the press of inc United States, relative to the sale of intoxicating liquors on the first of the month of June in the state of Son ora, is incorrect. This government has no knowledge of same and has not de- rided to adopt such resolutions"
 According to Consul Valde, several Americans of the Warren district called on him relative to published statements, that the Sonora govern ment had passed resolutions permit ting the sale of liquors and the opening of the gaming houses, bull rings and cockpits. The consul did not have in formation which the Americans wished and telegraphed his governor at Her mosillo for full details.

Somebody is always taking the joy out of life.

The result: X letter to the OutloolIs editor remind ing him that on page S46 of the Mem oirs, General Grant writes: 'sTbe much talked of surrendering of Lees sword and my handing it back, this and much more that has been said about it, is the purest romance" Per haps the pretty sword ceremony did not enter the head of either general on that momentous occasion.

five Cyrus Palmer, OF Schuylki.l. were
discussed.
Director Krusen. OF the Department
OF Health. sent letter OF sympa thy
with the idea. Mr.. Faracchio outlined
the campaign as follows:
THE sanitary license law is not only
for the benefit OF the barber--it is also
most essential for the benefit Of the
public In general The public must be
given the best possible service. For the
sake of public health and for the heath
of the BARRIERS themselves we should
have such a sanitary bill adopted by the

cessity of such a law. because they
