IlOn. ana II the modern man is gu
ing to have visions Of the good old
days of the cave man he must be con-
sistent and include in his deectable
dream the real cave woman"
Later, in her apartment in hotel
Miss LaughllA went into the subject
with a New York Tribune reporter in
a manner which showed that she has
given much study to the domestic ar
engagements of the man and the woman
whose wooing consisted of footrace
and blow on the lady's head with
some hard. blunt instrument
IF the men insist on delving into
the secrets of those monollthic prede-
cessors of the New York apartment
house." said Miss Laughlin, "then they
must take the consequences and an
swer by what right they can call any
work the work of men, unless perhaps
1t is hunting and fishing. Back in that
ideal period for which the modern man
pines practically all of the work be-
longed to the women. SO when our
! men talk about mans work I'd like to
know just what they mean"
Kipling is one of the few men who
really understand what the relation
ship of the cave man and the cave
woman was. according to Miss Laugh
lin As proof of her contention she
cites his "Just So" stories. which he
told to his "best beloved" You will
remember the place where it says:
1.-THE man was wild. too. He was
dreadfully wild. He didn't even begin
to be tame until he met the woman,
and she told him that she did not like
living in his wild ways"
You will remember how 1t was. She
picked out nice. dry cave (proving,
by the way. that there was cave
woman before there was cave mani.
and she cleaned house properly and
hung n dried wild horse skin across
the opening of the cave and said:
"Wipe your feet, dear. when you
come In. and now We'll keep house.
And the man came in and lay down
beside the fire that the woman had
built and went to sleep.
''But just before he dozed or said
Miss Laughlin. ''he probably threw
out his chest and remarked that he
was a cave man himself and believed
that woman's place was In the
home"
And Miss Laughlin agrees with Mr.
Kipling in the theory that the motive
for keeping house was the protection
of the baby. Long periods without
food. which were bound to be part Of
the life of nomadic people, were
hard on the young. and that is The
reason the woman decided to keel

BASE BALL
LEAGUE

SAN FRANCISCO, January 81
The annual meeting of the Pacific
Coast League was held today in the
st. Francis Hotel. The principal
tasks before heads of the eight clubs
iare formation of the 1920 schedule
and instruction of their delegate to
the meeting of major and minor lea
CUES to be held this month in the
East.
William H. Mccarthy, shoe manu-
facturer, sounded the keynote of the
meeting in a few remarks to the men
who only recently elected him presi-
dent of the league.
"The essential thing is clean base
ball and good baseball" said McCar-
thy, land that is what 1 shall try to
provide. We must eliminate gambling
so far as the grounds are concerned,
and we ust have a corps of umpires
100 per cent stronger than before"
Mccarthy said he favored a 28-
week schedule instead Of the 26-week
card of last year, because it would al
low every team to appear in each city
of the circuit for two series of week
each.
The makeup of the league will be

Vernon's defeat of st. Paul at the
close Of last season demonstrated the
superiority of the coast league over

MEXICO IS
SHAKEN UP
B Y A BIG
TEMBLOR"

MEXICO CITY, January 5,-Ad-
vices received to day indicate that
there was heavy loss of life and great
destruction of property in the earth
quakes which shook many states in
Mexico last Saturday.
Unconfirmed dispatches relate that
two villages have been destroyed COM
pletely, while third, near the Oriza-
ba volcano, is reported badly damag
ed.
The villages of Teocelo, and Cosant-
la, near Jalapa, are reported to have
disappeared "into the ground, liter
ally swallowed up-while the village
of San Juan Coscamalepec, on the
slopes of Mount Orizaba, was said to
have been razed to the ground in part.
1t is said that three churches col
lapsed, burying many people who had
gathered within their walls to pray
for Divine Intervention to stop the
earthquakes or save them from its
power.
Refugees, who have begun arriving
here from neighboring towns tell har-
rowing tales of suffering in Jalapa,
where they said buildings in the out
skirts of the town were demolished.
One entire section of the city is re-
ported laid in waste, adobe buildings
crumbling to dust in the grinding
force of the earth tremors.
Reports relate that tremors were
violent in sections of the states of
Vera Cruz. Orizaba, Puebla, Tamauli-
pas and Morelos.
The heaviest damage is reported
fromthe city of Vera Cruz, where loss
of life was said to be appalling.
Houses in the outskirts of the city
are reported to have been demolished;
and, due to the bursting water mains,
which were dislocated by the tremors,
the city's water supply was shut off.
1t is reported that at the city of
Orizaba eleven distinct and prolonged
shocks were felt, and people are re-
ported to have fled to the open coun-
try. Many people are reported in
jured in a theatre panic in that city,
the audience trampling one another
in their frantic efforts to reach the
doors and get outside; others leaping
from balconies in their efforts to es-
cape.
: The center of the disturbance was
apparently in the mountains of San
Angel near the City of Mexico, where
five distinct and seevere shocks were
recorded.

MEXICO CITY, January 4,-The
Mexican government has presented
to the United States protest against
establishment in the Tampico region
guards and protectors for the prop
critics of the American oil companies
operating there, who are alleged
members of the American Legion. a
fraternity of veterans from the Am
erican army of the great war in Eur
ope.
These detachments, engaged in pro-
lection of American oil properties in
the vicinity named, are under orders
from alien authority, and their pres
ence is considered a violation of Mexi-
can sovereignty.
Yesterday there departed for Yucca
tan Gen. Pablo de la Cara, who has
been assigned to command military
operations in that state. He is ac-
companied by Governor Castro Mo-
rales.
The necessity for some solution of
the monetary situation becomes more
apparent daily. Correct information
received here indicate that large
part of the worlds supply of silver
has disappeared into India and China,
drawn there by the high prices for
that metal prevailing there.
Today President Carranza promul-
gated decreed comforting during his
file time, upon Lie. Justo Sierra, a
pension of ten pesos daily, in consid-
GRAFTON of his eminent services in the
cause of public education in Mexico.
Secretary of State Robert Lansing
at Washington sent to all the govern
ments Of America New Years greet
ings that were transmitted by wire
and cable, saying: Il desire to extend
jall the governments on the American
continent the most sincere and cordial
desire upon the part of this govern
ment for their prosperity, and advan-
cement in the new year upon which

Oh this continent can recognize in 1920

coming cordial welcome, and every
encouragement. We desire to give
humanity demonstration of our de-
votion to the great principles of hu-
manity and equality upon which our

tanning 100 kilos each, received at

NOCALES CITY
COUNCIL. Me T
YESTERDAY
EVENING

Yesterday evening the Nogales
City Council held it's first regular
session in the year 1920. There were
present Mayor Fielder, Aldermen
Butler, Curtis, Ford and Wylie; City
Clerk Frank E. Cole, City Attorney
E. r. Purdum, City Engineer J. W..
Larimore, Street Superintendent Lon.
Roller.
A large part of the session was TAX
en- up reading minutes of meetings in
December, which were very volumin-
Gus, the council having conducted all
the proceedings leading up to the
bond election, which were extended
and complete.
County and City Assessor Victor J.
Wager appeared before the board and
asked for information and instruction
on the subject Of making building per-
mits conform to the actual construc-
tion costs, in order that they may be
of use i'll making up assessment rolls
of the city and county.
Mr.. Wager called attention to the
fact that many permits are taken out
for buildings said to be- intended to
cost but $4,000 or $4,000; yet when
completed the cost ran up to $4,000
or $4,000, even $4,000. He cited one
residence recently completed at a cost
exceeding $4,000 which was erected
upon building permit for $4,000; and
business structure that had been re-
modelled at cost Of $4,000 on $6.-
900 permit. He cited also another
business structure which had been
remodelled cat greater cost than the
original cost of the building" run
ming up into thousands of dollars,
that had been done without a permit.
All these differences Assessor Wag
er claimed are against arriving at
correct assessment of new structures,
and he suggested that some means be
adopted for making accurate all build
ing permits. He stated that in Phoe-
nix, Tucson and other cities in Ariz-
ona building permits are made a
foundation for assessments, and they
are made to be accurate also.
Mayor Fielder and Alderman Cur
tbs opined that the building ordinan-
ces in the other places are more COM
prehensive than those in Nogales' and
that an amended ordinance would
have to be adopted before the city
would have power to exact from those
doing building applications for per-
mits that were accurate and correct.
Alderman Wylie called attention to
the fact that many times building
exceeds estates of cost, but the appli-
cation and permit are framed upon
the original and erroneus estimate.
The subject was referred to the
City Assessor and City Engineer, with
instructions to investigate such build
ings they think subject to the points
involved, and get additional or amend
ed applications, with issue of build
ing permits to meet the changed con-
ditions.
Monthly demands were audited and
paid; and the council went
into recess, to finish business at an
other meeting.
