FL ESPOSO DE MRS. MORTON

tase para envilecer a quien Ia produ-
10 V ridiculizar a anuel a ouien va d.
rigida. Cravioto tambien pronuncio
Ell parrafo siguiente:
eel ~Ingenisro Ignacio Bonillas.
empunando en- sus manos de honor y
de yirilidad Ia antorct:a del Civilis-
mo, es mas que I'll hombre: es un
simbolo; es mas que un ciudadano
que contiende: es I'm ariete contra los
e~rrores de IA tradicion; es mas que
un guerrero subyugador de Ia victo-
ria: es IN osado conquistador de 10
future; V por ESQ, ell ingeniero Bo-
nillas en- pugna contra Ell pasado, en-
reto con los peligros, emblenla ahora
de un alto ideal fecundo, es mas que
un candidate a la presidential de ia Re
publica; es IN candidate SECURE a
los fastos de Ia Historic = a la gra-
titud perenne de su pueblo.
Le falta agregar: es algo mas que
un m%eXicano; es ell marido de Mrs.
Morton.
Y al DIR estas alabanzas idiotas nc
Sc prsguntara Bonillas asustado:
"a que debo tanta grandeza?
70 lie a~conseiaria que fuese a yer
una representation de Eel Ray que
Rabio" Y comparase su personalidad
cor IL de aquel pobre diablo, cuyo me-
rito mayor fue ser mordido por IN
perro. Sc creyo que era ell Rey.
Y mientras Sc le conducia en- n
carreta, IN captain 10 re~verenciaba
como 81 fuese una creatura -divina.
Sc descubrio Ell pastel y Jeremias
siguio siendo Jeremias.
Lo mismo Bonillas: 10 ACADIA de NOR
der IN pe1ro y algunos mentecatos
10 consideran rey. CuanGo Sc con-
venzan de que todo fue farsa para
acabar con Oregon, nadie lie volvera
q hacer case, V e%ntonces el EmbaJa
dor volvera 2 ser 10 gus siempre ha
sido: 81 esposo de Mrs Morton.
Y entonces-.....o tra vcz a Arlzc-

Ell EMIT DE CRlSIO

-eria de que un cuerpo Putretacto no
podia ser divinoi Por ESQ los judios
hicieron esfuerzos prodisiosos para
seguir jadelante; pero TODD era inutil:
los restos del martir oprimian al pue-
bio judo como 81 pretendiesen hum
dirlo en- ell ~suelo.. Y todos iban SUI
doroso y an~gustiados, mugiendo deses
pcradsmente mientraS sus pies bo-
brachos Sc arrastraban temblorosos =
Ta~cilantes. eD pronto erujieron tedas
las ~vertebras, Sc doblaron todSs las
rodillas, las espaldas. sc veneiaron
los eodos Sc ~clavaron en terra, y ca
yeron sodos oprimidos por squel ca
daver que los embarraba en- ei suelo,
de donde no Sc podrian levantar va
mas.
Entonces fuc euando Jose de Ari-
mathea y Maria Msgdslena levanta-
ron Ell cadaver de la tarma y-ioh
miiasroi-lo pudieron eondueir facii-
mente al sepulero de roca que Sc ha-
bia hecho en- medic del huerto del
Calvario.

st. Paul Girls Ran
Away From Home

Aberdeen. Feb. 10.-Marie Becker.
aged II; Frances Bell, aged 16, and
Margaret Jacquits, aged 15, all of st.
Paul, Mimi, lassies, were detained at
the Aberdeen police station upon or
ders received from the st. Paul po-
lice department, asking that the girls
be stopped here in their flight to
points south, because they had run
away from home. The young women
suffered an exhaustion of funds after
they reached Aberdeen and had slept
at least one night in the women's
waiting room of the Milwaukee sta.
tiOn.
It appears that the trio were all
working at the same place or IN
places in close proximity in st. Pau
and that they had decided to SCI

lilies are not acquainted with each

Of the families have notified the Alb

and take them back to st. Paul.

Killed By An
Old Shotgun

White, Feb. 10.-An old shotgun,
for which his father had paid 81 at
an auction sale last fall, was acciden-
tally discharged and killed John Au-
gust Studor, the 14-year-old son of
Mr.. and Mrs. A. N. Studor, living on
a farm in the White district,
The father had forbidden the boys
to use the old shotgun, which was
rusted badly. 1t appears that the IA
year-old boy had placed a shell in the
old weapon, and later evidently was
trying to remove the shell when the
weapon was discharged.
The charge entered. the boys right
eye and went through the head, kill
ing him instantly. AS he fell he
lunged forward into an adjoining
room, where his sisters and brothers
were washing the supper dishes.
A younger brother ran mile to a
neighbor's place and reported that
someone had fired through the win
dow and killed his brother, he, in his
excitement, for time believing this
to be true.

The contract for a specified num-
fer of lamps for the city's use was

mously that the attitude of the gov.
,ernment toward the extradition ques-
ton is unchanged. The Association
of German Regular Soldiers carried
out big demonstration here yester-
day against acceptance of the extradi-
tion demand. Similar demonstrations
were held in the provinces.
Miss Elsa Scheiner, the only wom-
an whose name appeared on the list
of Germans demanded by the Allies,
is daughter of prominent profes-
sor of Berlin university and had
charge of the women's concentration
camp at Valenciennes during the war.
The Nieuwe Rotterdamsche Cour-
ant prints letter from a contributor
who asserts that Miss Scheiner ac-
quired the enmity of Allied women
spies who were imprisoned at her
camp. He declares, however, that let
ters to Professor Scheiner showed the
daughter had many friends among
the prisoners and that she did not
approve of German policies.

MILLIONS LOST
IN R. R. LOOT|NG
ROBBERIES OF MERCHANDISE IN
TRANSIT CAUSE LOSS OF
$45,OOO,OOO. ........

New York, Feb. 10.-Wholesale
looting of merchandise in transit upon
the railroads of the United States
caused loss of approximately $45.-
100000 in 1919, according to United
States railroad administration statis-
tics.
This is estimated to be more than
double the losses sustained in any
prewar year but it is pointed out that
the increased costs of the commodi-
ties stolen which are roughly esti-
mated to average IS per cent must be
taken into consideration when COM
pairing past losses with those of to-
day. Nevertheless, ther has been n
steadily increasing number of pack
ages stolen.
A technique of robbery has been
developed so highly that the methods
of master thieves" are similar in the
United States, England, France, Italy
and Argentina, according to a recent
report of the United States chamber
of commerce in Argentina. Thief
hunters here, however, are inclined
to discredit that organizations be-
lief that widespread international
organization" is at work stealing mer-
chandise."

HIRAM JOHNSON
IN SOUTH DAKOTA
FORMER GOVERNOR BYRNE TO
HANDLE HIS CAMPAIGN.

Sioux Falls, Feb. 10.-The cam
paign in South Dakota of United
States Senator Hiram w. johnson has
taken definite shape. Former Gov
ernor Frank M. Byrne consented to
act as the head of the Johnson Or
ganization in this state. Ex-Gover-
nor Byrne when interviewed said: II
fir 'ly believe that Senator Johnson
is he logical candidate for the Re-
publican party to choose for the pres
idency. His record as a great pro-
gressive governor of California is ia
miliar to us all. He is entitled to our
support first in f,seeing California
from improper and corrupt corporate
domination. Next, for his construc-
tive economic reforms in the admins
tration of the states affairs. Under
his leadership California adopted the
budget system in 1911; the first state
in the union to adopt that system.
Senator Johnson, while governor, also
had enacted the eight hour law for
women; the mothers pension law,
which enables the destitute mother
to support her children and keep
them with her instead of sending
them to public institutions; the child
labor law, Juvenile court law, red
light abatement act, minimum wage
law for women, woman suffrage and
numerous other progressive and hui
name laws.
Senator Johnson's patriotic and
fearless stand in demanding that the
league of nations covenant be Ameri-
canized. gained him an international
reputation and the love and affection
Of every loyal American. The Ameri-
can people, believe, will elect only
q progressive and Hiram w. Johnson.
in my opinion, represents the leader
ship in progressive thought in this ma
ton today"

indications of favorable settlement.
II am loath to call a strike" Mr..
Barker said, "but there is nothing
else We can do. Our hands have been
forced. l am tired of the treatment
we have received from government
officials"
The general chairmen of the broth
erhood who have been in session here
for several days were empowered to
order strike by vote of the union
membership last summer. At the con-
ventiOn of the brotherhood last Sep
tember strike was postponed in or
der that President Wilson might have
opportunity to attempt to bring about
a reduction in living costs. Accord
ing to union officials his efforts have
been fruitless.

hood were for an average increase of
40 per cent. the greater increase to
go to the lower paid men.

ployes and railroad shop laborers set
for February II, will be carried out
only in case a final appeal to Presi-
dent Wilson to adjust demands for
wage increases fails, ]. D. Malloy.
