FLYER ESCAPES
 FROM CARRANZA
Refuses to Bomb Rebels and Comes from Mexico City
 to Bisbee in Plane

Fleeing from Mexico in his air plane to avoid imprisonment by the Carranza government for his refusal to bomb rebel towns, William Me kenzie, formerly a captain in the French Foregin Legion, is in Bisbee, waiting for parts with which to re- pair his plane which he damaged in making a forced landing this side of Fairbanks.
 Mackenzie has been acting as a fly ing instructor near Mexico City. He said that short time before Mexico City was taken he was ordered by the CarranZa authorities to take his plane out and bomb rebel towns. He con- scented to do reconnaissance work over enemy territory but refused to fire on the towns unless they fired on him. When a friend informed him that he was to be arrested and imprisoned on the following day and his plane taken rom him, he got the machine ready
 and flew up to Hermosillo. From Hermosillo he flew to Nogales and from there to Bisbee, arriving over the city last Saturday. Unable to find suitable landing place at Bisbee the flyer prepared to return to Nc gales but was forced to iand near Fairbanks on account of motor trouble He broke wheel on the machine in landing
 Mackenzie said that the Carranza government failed to keep promises made to nm when he N5enC mo the country. He was to receive S500 a !. f1r. but when he let more than two months pay was owed him. The Nexi- cans were using various types Of planes shipped over from France. Mackenzie said that the old palace in Mxico City is a curious place. Dozens of machine guns are in constant re&di- ness on the roof oi the building Jo repel an attack, and machine guns are even concealed behind screens in the rooms. By moving levers steel screens with loop holes are caused 70 slide across the windows.
 The plane thrt MacKenzie- is flying is French Newport ot tne t,pe Used in the early days of the war. It is one that he himself used in France and was shipped to him by the French government in recognition of services rendered. Mackenzie was severely wounded by shell fire in 1916 while firing with his machine gun on a Ger nan searchlight at night. He hap pened to be headed toward the French lines at the time, and although un- conscious, h.s machine glided down on the French side. Mackenzie is one of the few surviving flyers Of tine French Foreign Legion
 When his plane has been repaired Mackenzie intends to try ID lind landing place near the Country club and will take up passengers from Bis bee on shor4 rides.

mates paroles may be suspended and
watchfuiness increased. Finally, there
can be no excuse for the laxity with
which the patients are kept in re-
straint on the score Of inadequate
guards, if the ratio is, as stated. the
highest recorded.
There should be no warrant what
ever for the escape Of patient who
has a grounds parole" If the proper
care is exercised at the gates no per-
son who does not bear a pass can get
out. Every visitor who enters the
grounds should be required to register
and receive a card emitting him to
leave at the end of his call. Such a
device would check the escape Of the
grounds parole cases.
While probably few Of the patients
who take French leave" of the insti-
tuition are dangerous when at large,
not one of them can be wholly trust
ed, if they are properly committed to
the care of the hospital. There is no
against mischief on the part
of a person of disordered mind. The
only safe conduct of such an institu-
ton is to reduce to the lowest point
the number of those who are granted
the privilege of unattended visits to
the city and to make certain by bar
riers and guards that none others
shall leave the grounds.

fidence, shipped of a bunch Of the
strange orange fur and freed It, be-
ing wise in cat lore to the extent of
understanding that every cat knows
it's own home and will go there what
ever else betides. So he watched the
cat and followed it, and when it slipped
into a basement window he knew that
there was where the cat dwelt and
that the men who had trif1ed with it's
covering were somewhere about. A
chemical analysis Of the bunch Of pill
fered fur disclosed the fact that the
orange hue was the result Of a dye,
and that that dye was of the same
character as the missing goods. From
that time on the case was simple, and
the other day arrests were made and
goods worth great sum were recov-
cred. It is now to be hoped that the
cat that solved this mystery has been
given a good home and restored to
it's original style. 1t might well be
adopted as the mascot of the detective

POLITICS AT HOME
McAdoo and BRYAN.

Mr.. McAdoo and Mr.. Bryan agree
fully on the subject Of prohibition
Both take the ground that the Vol
stead act must be enforced rigidIy, as
well because it is the law as because
it is right. Both insist that 1t must
not be weakened in any way; that any
tinkering with it would play into the
hands Of those who desire. and have
in purpose, return to the old, demon
alizing, wide-open order Of things.
But they differ as to duty in this
years campaign. Mr.. Bryan cannot
see his way clear to support Gov. Cox,
whom he considers a wet, nominated
by wet influences, and likely II elect
ed to play the wet game. So he is
giving his time and attention to the
ton of a Congress so overwhelmingly
dry as will block any wet maneuver
that may originate-either on Capitol
Hill or in the White House.
On the other hand. Mr.. McAdoo is
preparing to take the stump for Gov.
Cox. He knows the influences that
prevailed in Gov. Cox's nomination,
and that II the governor is elected
those Influences will attempt to make
themselves felt both on Capitol Hill
and at the White House. Still, he will
do his bit toward the achievement of
a Cox victory.
The two men do not hold the same
relation to the party leaders. Mr..
Bryan was not a candidate for the
San Francisco nomination. Mr.. Nc
Adoo was, and when defeat came his
friends moved to make the nomina-
ton of Gov. Cox unanimous. In that
way Mr.. McAdoo became committed
and probably feels himself bound to
render to the ticket all the service in
his power.
Still, Mr.. McAdoo on the stump in
New York will be problem. The
hope Of carrying the state for the state
ticket and for the national ticket rests
in the ability of Tammany Hall to
marshal and utilize all local wet in
fuences. That Is well understood.
Will Mr.. McAdoo stump New York?
