and production.
War Department officials predict
that Captain Schroeder will win
His victory would bring the trophy
consisting of a cup valued at S2.ooo
to this country permanently. since
the international cup races were in
augurated the United States and
France stand tied with two victories
each. England is credited with one
victory. During the war the races
were suspended.

aeronautics in the past six years,
this years contest will be the greatest
event in the history of aviation. This
years race is to be held in France

VILLA FEARS

Pursuing Foxy Game Of Demo-
billing His Forces, Despite
Federal Guarantees.

Franciso villa surrendered when he
was assured OF heavy financial sup
port. but his fear that he would be
caught in a trap or that the new
Mexican reg line might default In its
promises has led him to pursue a foxy
game OF demobilizing hts forces at
his own convenience. Reports from
American consular onieers TO the
State Department today made IL plain
that villas fear OF the insincerity OF
the new powers in Mexico, accounts
for the cautious march now being
mde by villa and his body OF troops
overland back TO Torreon.
Villa rejected generous offers made
By the De La Huerts government for
special trains to transport his army
back to their home soil, II wAs stated.
villa today was In the region OF

with General Obregon's Liberal party
triumphant, there still is extreme
doubt as to what measures will be

Some officials believe that the dis
pute with Cantu will be adjusted
without hostilities. Consular reports
indicated today that Cantu has rallied
around him a sufficiently large force
TO resist stubbornly any attempt by
the provisional government to send in
an army OF occupation, with a view to
throwing Cantu out of power bodily.

CHINA'S HOLY PLACES

China's shrines, including those In
the much discussed Shantung, are de-
scribed in the following communica-
ton to the National Geographic society
by Frederick Mccormick:
"CoIeridge could not have selected
a phrase more apt than stately pleas
ure dome had he intended to call at
tention to the best-known form in Chi
nese architecture. Like so much Of
the wrought beauty Of China, such as
is still seen In parks and gardens, pa
godas are the work of the Buddhist
church almost exclusively.
1.-THE most beautiful specimens are
in the Yangtse valley, where pagodas
are most numerous. Every important
Chinese and Manchurian city is gar
landed with them. From the walls Of Pc
king q dozen pagodas and towers may
be counted within the city, and with a
good glass half dozen famous ones
may be seen rising from the surround
ing plain.
"Pagodas range In height from 20
10 more than 200 feet, and are Of va
rious shapes-round, square, hexag-
onal. octagonal, etc. They always have
an odd number Of stories, ranging usu-
ally from seven to nine, and some
times possessing IL and even 13.
1.-THE Chinese have appropriated the
pagoda as a counterpolse to evil, and
used 1t, subject to their rules of ge-
ometry.
AT the city of Tung, in the Picking
plain, region In past years visited
by earthquakes, there Is a prominent
pagoda which at one time had more
than 1000 bronze bells suspended
from Its cornices, most of which are
still In place. The people have this
story as to Its construction: A
water fowl lives underground at
TINS place and when he shakes his tail
1t causes earthquakes. Geomancers 10.
Gated the end Of his tail, and the pa
CODA was built on II to hold II down.
At the same time this did not prevent
the water fowl from winking his eye !;
but, as his eyelids have not been &C.
curately located, second pagoda has
not yet been built. AS a result, trem-
blings Of the earth still occur.
THE wonder inspired in the breast
of the traveller who visits China's vast
remains Of abandoned capitals, extern
sive temples ranged in successive
courts and on terraces OF mountains,
it's pagodas, p'ai-lous. bridges, and
canals. Is equaled by the awe inspired
by the silent splendor of the tombs
Of China's emperors. The tombs o.
