GOOD RESULTS

One day the Superintendent of the
Children's Home was called upon to
take Swedish boy nine years of age.
His mother having died when he was
small, the father had left him with
so-called friends, who had treated
him cruelty, the boy showing marks
on his head and shoulders where he
had been beaten. Physically and
mentally he showed the result OF the
years of neglect and ill-treatment:
Cowed scarcely normal because his
childhood had been so pitifully lack
ing in everything that goes to make
the ordinary boy care free and hap
py. 1t is a splendid thing to know
that through the Home, the boy has
found a good home, and will be given
a chance to make something of him.

MEXICO CITY, March 17.--Of-
ficial advices with regard to the ca
tastrophe in Ell Bordo mine, at Pa
chuca, state that probably the work.
men entombed in the depths of the
mine are all asphyxiated, and there
is very little hope for saving any OF
them.
Today the auxuluary brigade could
penetrate none of the shafts The
third shaft was opened, or uncovered,
but on account of the gas arising it
was impossible to enter, but it is
hoped that entry of fresh air may
dear away the gases and make en-
trance possible.
The cause of the fire has not been
determined; but it is supposed to
have been due to short circuit IN
electric light wiring.
Today the government has re.
ceived 25 carloads of agricultural
machinery, which will be distributed
at cost price among farmers desiring
it.
The war department has ordered
cinemetrographic views taken of the
interior of barracks and other feat
ure of life in the army, for exhibition
throughout the country and abroad.
The department of commerce, in
dustry and labor of the federal gov
ernment has issued bulletin declar-
ing that in Mexico the cost of living
is infinitely cheaper than in any 9TH
er country of the world, the state
ment being fortified by market
quotations in other countries. bull
letins of their governments, etc. But
the department declares that it is
impossible to prevent exodus of Ia
bArers drawn from the country by the
higher wages offered in the United
States, even though it may not be
beneficial to the country to have. it

Advices from Madrid state that
ladies from Mexico resident in that
city have received marked attention
at the court of King Alfonso; and
that at one of the functions attend
ed by them the King and entire COM
pany united in singing the Mexican
national hym.
There is expected to arrive in this
capital shortly the Spanish novelist
Vicente Ibanez Blasco, who con-
templates writing a book upon the

over to Connors all the money they
could amass, said TO have been be-
tween $3.50 and $500.
When the parole Of young Branson
was not forthcoming as promptly as
expected the elder Bransons wrote to
Governor Olcott to inquire concerning
the progress of their sons parole
This letter which contained a state
ment of Connor's offer exposed Con-
nor's operations and his arrest as a
parole violator was ordered. Prema-
ture publication of a newspaper story
to this effect, however, warned Con-
nors, and he made his escape. His
arrest in Seattle is the result of re-
lentless search for the fugitive since
that time.
Whether any charge will be lodged
against him for his duplicity in
mulcting the elder Bransons out of
this money has not yet been deter
mined but state officials connected
with the prison management are
firm in their determination that he
shall serve out at least the major por-
tion of his uneXpired maximum sem
