MEXICO TRIES FARM COLONIES
Government Takes Action to Satisfy the Land Hunger of the
 Peasants.

Mexico City.-To satisfy the land hunger of the Mexican peasantry, the government is establishing farm col onies in the states of San Luis Potosi and Guanaiuato.
 Other settlements will be founded as soon as these first two are com pletely launched.
 In these colonies, the small proprie- tors will live like the Mormons ip Chihuahua and Sonora-each commun- ity having its own streets, market, garden, mixed school and moving pie ture theater. Apportionment of the ndiaeent farm lands will be made so that each petty landholder will literal ly have his own "row to hoe" thus obviating one of the greatest causes for the many recent uprisings that have occurred in Mexico. Each farm CT will be furnished with agricultural implements and seed.
 These farms will be nontransferable In any form. whether by mortgage, sale or exchange. They may be in- herited, however. and are to be free from taxation.
 It Is planned to establish the pro- posed communities near railroad lines, so that the products will find ready markets.

 A few years ago tourists we're few and far between. being Confined large y to the expert but widely-busted ramp printer, who remained fin town long enough to become thoroughly pickled and then toured to the next stop on the brake rod of poultry car. With the upspringing of the automo. bile, however, our roads are deeply lined with a new kind of tourist, who travels among strangers and pays the list price for red inner tubes.
 Since it has been discovered tha' the modern automobile can be run several thousand miles without any more expense than operating a short line railroad, the practice of skipping from coast to coast in wabble-legged touring car has become a fixed habit Most people would rather ride in g new automobile carrying a penn2W and a weak-lunged storage battery than imDn on q trauscontneutal flyer and inhale free einders in d rapid ant

What's in a Name?" By MILDRED MARSHALL Facts about your name; it's history; mean ing; whence it was derived; significance;
 vour lucky day and lucky jewel
SADIE.

T% HE quaint name of Sadie, lately Sarah. It comes from a Hebrew verb meaning to fight or rule, and hence came to signify princess" The first record of the use of Sarah or Sara belongs to Bible history where the wife of Abraham was so called.
 Sadie came into existence through the Irish-unless one came to believe that she is only an Americanization of one of Sarahs many diminutives. But for the sake of chronological exactness, 1t is nice to believe that the Irish Sadhbh was the real forerunner of Sadie.
 But between the time of Abrahams S wife and the appearance of the Irish version of her name, Sarah had been adopted by other countries and had won great popularity. In England Sara Beauchamp gave it vogue in the reign of Edward I and Sarrota de Moulton, who lived in former reign, was also supposed to possess a name which was another and favorite form of Sarah.
 The French preferred Sara without the "h" and it still continues in great vogue there They have another form. Sarotte, which is also popular. Ire lands Sadhbh' and Americas Sadie are apparently the only other exist ing forms.
 Sadie has a curious talismanic gem-malachite. If it is engraved with an image of the sun, it will bring her peace, freedom from danger and disease, and sound sleep. It is partic- ularly lucky for children, and it Is said that a piece of malachite tied to child's cradle will protect it from dangers throughout later life. Satur- day is Sadie's lucky day and ' her lucky number.

DE0NCHO BUSTING
 WEARS ITS END
Said There Will Be No More Wild Horses in Rocky Moun-
 tain States.
CIVILIZATION SPELLS FINISH
Ranches Are Being Fenced and No More Do Wild Horses Range the Plains of Wyoming and
 Adjacent States.

Denver, Colo.-Broncho busters Of the northern Rocky Mountain states are about to go out of business, accord Ing to reports from officials of wild West and frontier shows. The reason Is there aren't any wild horses to bust. At least not around Wyoming and this part of the country.
 But down in Arizona they have wild horses to eat. There are 10000 of them. They belong to the San Carlos Indians, who have a reservation not far from Globe. But there isn't much chance of getting the Arizona ponies for the broncho busters of Wyoming for the Indians won't give them up.
 Growing Shorter.
 The day of the wild herd of horses roaming the plains of Wyoming and adjacent states has been growing rapidly shorter with the encourage ment of civilization. More and more ranches are being fenced in, herds of cattle are reduced or confined, and to make the matter worse for the ex- istence of the wild steedS. oil drilling camps have been extended over wide areas of Wyoming, northwestern Colo rado and Utah.
 But down on the San Carlos Indian reservation there are 10000 wild steeds, roaming at will over the fields, destroying mile after mile of grazing land which might be put into good use for cattle, and turning green grass ot the prairie into a scrawny covering for their bones which hardly makes even a decent meal for an Indian.
 The cattlemen have tried to buy them, but the Indians wouldn't listen. Tbe government, through A. H. Sy- monds, Indian agent, offered to pur- chase them at about S6 a head, invest the money in cattle and save the meat from the horses, giving it back to the Indians for winter food.
 Horses Are Worthless.
 But the Indians would have none of it. The horses are worthless even for hides. They cannot be domesti- eated and the meat isn't much of a delicacy, but the Indians insist on their age-old prerogative to have their herds out on the open prairie even as their fathers did. The Indians also have about 2,0O0 wild burros which they say they will keep.
 And when an Indian makes up his mind, Symonds says, you've got to have patience to get him to change 1t. They are proud of the horses and burros for some reason, and although some of their leaders have tried to persuade them to accept the offers made, so far they have refused to sell"

LASHES FOR WIFE BEATER
Canadian Magistrate Gives Russian Husband Jail and Whip
 ping Post.

Crowland, Ont.-The whipping post will be used In Welland county for the first time in many years to teach Russian alien that the ways of Russia are not those of Canada, as far as wife treatment is concerned. John Toloski has been sentenced to 20 lashes and 30 days in jail. He was found guilty before Magistrate John Good win of throwing an alarm clock at his wife, breaking her ribs; of kick ing her on the knees until she was disabled, and of then beating her near ly to death.
 Toloski told the court he believed he was justified in treating his wife any way he saw fit, as he had always done so in Russia, but the magistrate said he would give him a taste of Rus sian punishment, since he was so fond of it.
 An ancient law was invoked to per init the flashing. Warden Gallinger supervised ten lashes in the afternoon. Ten more will be given at the end of Toloski's twentieth day of impris- onment.

HARNESS CHILE'S WATERFALL
Company of Capitalists Get Franchise From Government to Develop
 Power Resources.

Santiago, Chile.-Vast natural water power resources in the central prov inces of Chile are to be put to use to generate electricity for Santiago, Valparaiso and neighboring cities and towns.
 A company, capitalized at $3,250,0 ,000. has been formed for the purpose and work already has been started on a hydro-electric plant on the Colorado river, near Santiago, where it is ex- pected 1S,000 horsepower can be de veloped. The project is backed large ly by Chilean capital.
 Basis for the promotion of the con- pany was the need of more power by both the Valparaiso and Santiago street railways and by mining and in- dustrial enterprises. Until recently no waterpower concessions in Chile were granted for more than 35 years but the latest concessions are said to be perpetual.

FALLS 130 FEET AND LIVES
Man Drops Into Six Feet of Water; Breaks Nothing but High Diving
 Record.

San Francisco.-Instead of being center of funeral services, John War ren, timekeeper at the Hetch Hetchy dam building site, is trying to learn If he holds a new diving record. He did q drop of 130 feet into only six feet of water and broke nothing other than the record, if that.
 There is a bucket swung on fall that carries out of the Hetch Hetchy dam pit to the cliff side, and in which 1t has been the practice of workmen to make the trip down from cliff to pit, as the empty is returning. Johl was making this ride.
 The bucket got tangled in n guy wire and, of course, tilted. Before it could clear and right itself John was spilled and sliding down an air current.
 He hit the water either head first or feet first. No oae knows, John least of all. When the mourners gathered to pick up the remains John blinked. shook his head and told the boys to get back to work or he'd mark them up for time lost.

TOWN PUT TO SLEEP
Poisoned Well Starts RumorS of
 New Form of Disease.
Strange Goings on in New Jersey Traced to Naphtha From
 Wrecked Car Tank.

Trenton.-To the wreck of rail- road freight train and the consequent dumping of an S,000-gallon tank of naphtha the authorities of Roelofs, Pa, are beginning to trace number of mysterious events. A death, seri- ous Illness, the poisoning of streams and wells, the prostration of cows and other cattle, and the fact that neither humans nor chickens ever wake up earlier than 10 a. m.-ah these things are being charged to the accident.
 Rumors that the town of Roelofs was suffering from a new form Of sleeping sickness and that household furnishings were falling apart from disuse and that wall paper on at least three houses was beginning to peel off have been brought to Trenton from time to time. It was not until recent ly that the matter was taken serious ly and made the subject of an investi- gation by persons living here.
 The wreck of the train dumped the tank car, they reported. The naphtha flowed into a pool on the farm of Robert Clewell. Clewell mo- ticed the peculiar odor, but thought nothing of it, even after he began to sleep eighteen hours a day. In time Alfred Bittle, according to Dr. Edwin Huntsman of Hulmeville, died from naphtha poisoning and Mrs. Fred J. Jackson was stricken with stomach trouble. The cows on Jackson's place collapsed in the barns and slept for whole days at time. At the same time the chickens quit laying and re- mained asleep, refusing to pay atten. ton to the yelps of the Jackson dog who had rolled in the gas naphtha pond and almost frozen to death as the liquid evaporated from his hide.
 It was learned by the investigators from Trenton that every inhabitant of Roelofs has been unconscious a good part of the time and that in lucid moments the authorities were toe stupeied by naphtha fumes to attempt to ferret out the cause of the trouble.

 One nice thing about a long auto mobile tour is that the tourist gets a chance to meet great many nice peo- pie and learns how the government regulates the price of gasoline. We have one of the freest forms of gov ernment in the world and when gaso- line gets too high in one place all man has to do is to drive on to some point where it is a few cents higher This tends to keep the tourist in an amiable and contented frame of mind, and also encourages the building of stone-front garages which are often mistaken for the hotel.
 The tourist does not need to take much of anything with him except a few extra tubes and money. It is as- tonishing how fast money will Ooze away from a tourist who has neves dona anything to his own car exc9p'
