De dos amos a esta parte, es decir,

Vienen por el contrario absorber el

vantar ell cr6dito quebrantado y la eco

han sufrido los graves estragos de la
guerra. En- los anos de guerra, ell dine

culablo la acumulacion de riqueza que
Sc produjo. Pero no ha sabido utilizar-
Sc en- provecho de Ia nacion.

huelgas son una enorme perturbation

producido huelgas de metallrgicos, Y
sin embargo, los mismos obreros han cui
dado de que no sc apagaran los Altos

mineros y Sc ha garantido que no Sc
iundarian los pozos. Y huelgas de ferro

los telares
La razon de Ia abstencion del capital
espafiol estriba en- su falta de audacia
NO comprende los negocios industriales,
y por ESQ rehusa aventurarse en- gran
des empeilos. Las industrias espafiolas
por ESQ son extremadamente rudimenta-
rias, y por tanto, pobres. Sc sostienen
merced a un regimen arancelario que

CANADA INVADED BY EAGLE
Bird Was Seemingly Iked After Long
Trip, and Was Easily Cap
tured; Given Name.

The American eagle recently spread
his wings majestically over Canadian
soil. The eagle-a real one by the
way--soared from somewhere and
landed il Sandwich, Ont Whence he
came, nobody knows, But it was from
a long way of. as he was manifestiy
exhausted when he alighted on the
roof of a new house at the corner OF
Lot and Peter streets. 1t was just
about noon, and children coming from
school espied him. says the Detroit
News.
The bird stayed on his perch for
some time. when the mob gathered be-
low. The eagle surveyed the crowd in
a bored manner during the MINUTES
when he was not engaged in searching
with his beak for something or things
under his feathers. The crowd be-
came larger and more threatening.
Finally one brayer than the rest, evi.
IDENTIFY Briton without guile, cast the
first stone.
The American eagle spread his wings
10 their full extent and, waiting not
for the year of parley between dispute
ant nations, fiuttered to the ground.
Down the streets of Sandwich tne
proud bird trotted with unhurrled
bur dangerous steps. Through gaunt.
let of citizens he ran, Indian like, turn
Ing his beak from right to left with
each new step to peck at some venture
some bystander or over-ardent puf-
suer. 1t looked for time as II the
bird would not be captured. But ne
finally came to man whose ATTITUDE
was not hostile. With scarcely q
struggle the eagle gave in. :.
His captor was Clyde Thornton, 81
Peters street, an American citizen
During the remainder of the day the
Sandwich residents made tentative
peace offerings in the form of pieces
of meat. The bird accepted them un'
graciously. =
