Invasion of United States
With Gerrman-Mexican
Army Was Carefully
Planned.
lU. S. AGENT TELLS
! HOW PLOT FAILED
Commercial, Political and
Military Control of Latin
America Through Mexico
Still Is German Ambition.

New York, Aug. 23.-Revela-
ton of extensive German plots
in Mexico during the war, which
included a proposed invasion of
the United States by a German
Mexican army of 100000 men at
the same time the Germans
launched their last drive on the
western front, in July, 1913, was
made here tonight BY the Ma
tional Association for Protection
of American Rights in Mexico,
which gave out statement by
DIR. p. B. Altendorf, formerly of
the United States military in
telligence department., reciting
his experience as an American
secret service agent in Mexico.
He also warns Americans of the
proposed German commercial
conquest of Mexico, which he
says Germany is planning, in
tending yet to have absolute
economic, political and military
control of Latin America, with
headquarters in Mexico.
Altendorf said he helped to
train nine hundred German re-
servists in Mexico, then foiled
the plot for invasion, which he
declared was financed by the
notorious Won Eckhardt, Ger
man ambassador to Mexico, and
undertaken with the cooperation
of Carranza.
Altendorf. the son of a Polish bank
err at Cracow, Austrian Poland. fled to
Mexico at the outbreak OF the war;
where he was offered a position as
German spy to operate against the
United States by Kurt Jahnke, head
of the German secret service in Mex
ico- He said he accepted the position
and found himself able to aid the al
lies and the United States in particu-
lar, as volunteer worker in the
United States military intelligence de-
partment. He claims he later was
sworn in as special agent. The asso-'
citation states that Brigadier General
Churchill. head of that department,
praised his work highly.
AItendorf asserted that prominent
Mexican officials were on the pay roll
of the German embassy. He declared
a quarter million Germans from the
United States are soon going to Mex
leo to aid future German plans there.
Altendorf said he betrayed fifty-nine
German agents during the war
Altendorf asserted that he delivered
into the hands of the United States.
German agent Lathar Witcke. alias
Pablo wabirski. who. Aitendorf said.
boosted he had blown up several mu-
nitions plants and stores of explosives,
including the Black Tom explosion at
New York, blew UP some ships, and
caused disastrous forest fires in the
Pacific northwest
AItendorf said that Wabirski was
and sentenced 10 death

NEW MUSICAL BILL
 MONDAY AT TIE EELKS

The two remaining performances Of The Transport of Love-" the nautical musical friyoIity staged by the Ed Redmond F'olhes, will pc given at the tIks theater this afternoon and again this evening. This play has proven the banner attraction of the Redmond season and has well mertted the capac- ity houses that have been on hand at each performance.
 Dith it's colorful stage settings, smart wardrobe, keen comedy story, well balanced cast, song and dance numbers of the whistley variety, and novel stage lighting and effects; the attrac- ton has set an advanced standard for stock musical attractions.
 Commencing tomorrow evening, the Redmond FoIlies will stage for the week with matinees on Wednesday, Saturday and Sunday arIernOon the di- verting melody play hl two acts, en- titled, Straight from the Heart" In thenew production, Maurice Pen fold, the well known favorite will re- turn to the Redmond fold, appearing in one of the principal acting roles. The entire cast will be assembled for this production, including Robbie Deane,, i Peggy Betts, Marvin Hammond. Irene ] Noblitt, Ed Redmond, Joe Kemper, Ed Young, Orville Harris, Eddie Mitchell, and the bevy of dimpled, darling danc- ing damsels.
 1 Quite unusual is the story unfolded in Straight from the Heart. for, while comedy is the central body of the story and a delightful love tale Interwoven, the premise is laid about the advent into a small town of a young man who breaches the doctrine of smiling to make the world happy, and how well | he succeeds is shown when he turns themost pessimistic of the horde of characters who have soured on the world into a real Optimist. Coinci- dent to the action of the play, series of peppery musical numbers is intro duced, with the array of chic choristers assisting the principals in the whistley melodies and breezy dances.
 Asidef rom the appearance of of Maurice Penfold, another new member of the Redmond Follies will be seen, Paxton Payne, who will be the musical director of the organization.

 The Columbia management takes great pride in announcing to the theater- going public of this community the engagement of Mickey" at this playhouse for four days, starting on Wednesday, May Ii. There positively cannot be a longer engagement at this time, the film having a solid booking for several weeks to come.
 Mickey is a lovable harum -scarum little tomboy, who is always getting into all sorts of scrapes, that make you laugh and cry, whether with old Joe in the mountain mining district or later with her aunt in the city. From the village setting to the contrasting scenes in the home of Mickey s aunt, ther is ever an atmosphere of reality, with not d dull moment in all the seven reels.
 l Mickey has her share or sorrows and
 adventures, too, even as yo uand l, during the eventful stay with her | hypocritical aunt. It comes to a eli
 max in the last reel, which contains
 one of the biggest punch scenes thar has ever been screened. But one does not have to wait until the last reel be- | fore the excitement begins, because in- 1 terest is aroused as soon as Mickey is
 known, and it continues right up to the

"Write q Letter to Mother"
Ypfurp 1T III Gun Tatp

If you have a gray-haired mother
In the old home far away,
Sit you down and write the letter
You put off from day to day.
Don't wait until her weary steps
Reach Heavens peary gate,
But show her that you think of her,
Before it is too late.
If you have tender message
Or loving word to say,
Don't wait till you forget it.
But whisper it today.
Who knows what bitter memories
May haunt you if you wait?
So make your loved one happy
Before it is too late.~
The tender word unspoken,
The letters never sent
The long forgotten messages,
The wealth of love unspent;-
For these hearts are breaking,
For these some loved ones wat
Show them that you care for them
Before it is too late.
