ment of General Victoriano Huerta.
He placed himself at the head of a
well trained and equipped army of
100000 men and for months con,
trolled three-fourths of the repub-
lie of Mexico.
After reaching the heights his
descent was as rapid as his success.
Then he became an outlaw, hunted
by the armies of two nations, plum
dering here and thcrc-always hid
ing. His forces dwindlcd to a mere
band of 800 gucrillas, bent on muir
der and raiding in order to throw
their native country into war with
the United States and save their
own skins.
In this Villa was partly success
full. His raid on New Mexico re
suited in the United States sending
an expedition across the border in
charge of General Pershing.
The fiery leader and fighter was
born of poor parents in the state of
Durango. While he was still Il hoy
he killed an army captain and was
declared an outlaw by the Diaz gov

said Uncle Wiggily calmly. "We
will run out the back door as they
come in the 'front.'
"Oh-but Uncle Wiggily-I for.

Sammie. 81 know you told me to-
but L forgot it. Oh, what shall /
do9 How can we get away from the
Fox and Wolf?"
Sammie was so excited he hardly
knew what to do. On came the Fox
and Wolf, digging and tearing
row.
" "Come, Sammie!" called Uncle
Wiggily, 81 have made back
door for you so that we may run
out. Luckily l heard the Fox and
Wolf talking and L came here
ahead of them. Come! Hurry out
the back way!"
So Uncle Wiggily and Sammie
rushed out the back door, just as
the Fox and Wolf tore their way
in the front door. And when the
bad chaps found the burrow empty
they growled:
"Fooled again!' This is one of
Uncle Wiggily's tricks.' And so it
was. And if the umbrella doesn t

l IN afraid. I told him to make two
doors, one to run in and the other
to run out in case of danger. But
1 guess he forgot. Now I must see
what I can do to help him."
Uncle Wiggily kept himself hid
den behind the stump until he heard
the Fox and Wolf sinking away.
Then the rabbit gentleman crept
cautiously out, and, taking short
cut, he made his way to the place
where Sammie had built himself Il
burrOw house.
"Thank goodness, T am here in
time whispered Uncle Wiggily.
Then he began to scratch in the
dirt very fast with his paws, max
ing hole or tunnel leading under
ground into the burrow Sammie
had made.

as well as front door," said I'M
Gle Wiggily, "but / will not tell

Down into the front door of the
burrow crawled Uncle Wiggily.
Sammic was there, looking proudly
at the house he had made.
"Oh, hello, Uncle Wiggilyl" call
ed the rabbit boy. "Comc on in.
have some fresh cabbage.' Well,
Uncle Wiggily and Sammie were
eating the cabbage when, all of a
sudden, there came n dark shadow
at the front door--two dark shad-
ows.
"Who is coming in, Sammic?"
asked Uncle Wiggily, though well
he knew. The rabbit boy looked
toward the front door and he near
ly froze stiff with fright as he
whispered:
"Oh, it's the Fuzzy Fox and the
Woozie Wolf! They re coming in
my front door, Uncle Wiggily!"
"Well, don t let that scare you, ;"

Cartoonist Raps
Art Freaks Of
Famous Village

LOS ANGELES, July 21.-Grant
f. Hamilton, noted cartoonist, does
not believe there is any art in
Greenwich Village among the long
haired men and short haired women
residents of the village.
81 would shut up my shop and
quit after years of hard work,
rather than be classed with the
village freaks,'' said Hamilton.
"Why they can t even draw. To
cover up their bad drawing, they
make futurist, cubist and all kind
of ist' stuff and call it 'art' When
the public gasp upon seeing it,
the public of course, is earthbound
and matcrialistic, and therefore the
public soul cannot soar to the higher
realms of art. So, it is plain, ac-
cording to the Greenwich people,
the public cannot understand the in
depreciation of the picture and must
pcrforcc, take the word of the paint
er that it is viewing real art"

UNCLE WIGGILY AND THE

q. UNCLE WIGGILY AND THE =.
$500. -. :. TWO DOORS =. .... ........
1t was about a week after Uncle
Wiggily had given Sammic Little
tail Il lesson how to dig Il burrow,
or underground house, that some
thing else happened.
The old rabbit gentleman, peace
fully twinkling his pink nose, was
hopping along through the woods,
wondering what other lessons he
could teach his nephew, when I'm
Gle Wiggily heard voices.
"It is always well to stop, look
and listen in the woods, said I'm
Gle Wiggily to himself, especially
when one hears strange voices or
noises. I'll listen.
So, hidden behind big stump,
the rabbit gentleman listened and
this is what he heard. One voice
said:
"Sammie has made himself a
little burrow underground house.
He is living in it pretending that he
is grown-up rabbit. Now you and
|, Mr.. Fox, will go there and get
Sammie and nibble his ears
Yes, it is about time we had
some ears to nibble,' spoke the
second voice, "for we never can
seem to catch Uncle Wiggily. But,
tell me, when we go to the front
door of Sammic Littlctail's bur
row, won't he run out the back
dOor?' And Uncle WiGgily, peer
ing around the corner of the stuup p
saw that it was the Fuzzy Fox who
had spoken, and it was the Woozio
Wolf who had talked first.
"No, Sammic can t get out his
back door!' laughed the Wolf,
q" for the reason that he h#sn t any
back door. He didn t know enough
to make two doors to his under
ground house, as Uncle Wiggilv did
when he lived in Il burrow. We
shall easily catch Sammie!'
"My goodness! thought Uncle
Wiggily, when he heard this. of
that Sammic boy didn t know
enough to make two doors to his
burrow he is going to be caught,

PACIF IC DAIRY
SHOW PLANN ED
FOR BAY TOWN
Big Cow Exhibit to Be
Held in Oakland
Auditorium

SAN FRANCISCO, July 81. -
Oakland. California, will be the
Dairy City" of the Pacific slope
this wear. Announcement is made
from the office of the Pacific Slone
Dairy Show Association that the
1928 Pacific slope dairy show viii
be held in the civic auditorium at
Oakland.
Dates for the show are announced
rs October 20 to November ).
In selecting the dates for the
Show, the management made an eff
fort to have it held later i'll No
vembcr, but it was impossible to
get accommodations during the later
period for show of the magnitude
of the dairy event.
AS it is, the dairy show will fol.
low about two weeks after the close
of the national dairy show at Syr-
acuse, New York, about five days
after the close of the ice cream
show at Cleveland, and will close on
the opening day of the Pacific in
ternational livestock show at Port
land. Thus the Pacific dairy show
will not conflict with any ether big
events. which those allied to the IN
austrv like to attend, but some
of the delegates to various conven-
tions will have to keep moving to
make the entire circuit.
The Oakland civic auditorium,
where the SHOW will hn held. is one
of the most beautiful auditoriums
in America. 1t faces Lake Mcr-
i, ritt, a magnificent body of water
in the heart of great city, famed
for canoeing, boating, AMI for its
flocks of wild ducks. Beyond Lake
Merritt, to the East, are the tree
/ clad Piedmont hills, and off to the
north, the University of California,
! the largest institution of learning
| in the United States.
| There is ample room around the
| Auditorium for the erection of large
| tents, should more space be re
quired.
1t is expected to have within the
| auditorium more than leo exhibits
| of dairy products, dairy machinery,
! and from various educational agen-
| cies interested III forwarding the
industry of dairying. In addition,
| provision has been made for dis
| plavs from counties of Pacific slope
] states which wish to tell prospect
, i've settlers of dairying within their
| borders.
The Pacific slope dairy show will
be the center of several conven-
tions allied to the industry. 1t will
likewise draw a large number of
delegates from foreign countries,
who are coming TO attend the
world S dairy congress at Washing
ton, Philadelphia and Syracuse.
Premium list for those who in
tend to enter butter, milk, cheese
| and ice cream i'll the competition
is now in course of preparation.
DR.. C. L. Roadhousc, head of the
dairy division of the University of
California College of Agriculture,
is President of the Pacific slope
dairy show; Sam II. Greene, sec
retary manager of California Dairy
Council is secrctary-treasurer of the
association; and Robert E. Jones is
manager of the show.
All work and no play indicates

Americas Help to Japan.

WaShington's showing in the Japa-
nese relief fund is most gratifying.
With an originally assigned quota of
s50,000 the total collections in the Dis
trict at the close of the past week
was s114,551.06, and the subscriptions
continue to come. There is no reason
10 believe that they will cease, for it
has become evident that the need in
Japan is still most urgent, and that
the purchase of materials more will
still be necessary. Japan's require.
ments, in fact, may almost be said to
be beyond the reach of supply.
In the general fund for the whole
country the first quota of $5,000,000
has been passed, and the eight-million
point is closely approached. There
can be little question that by the end
OF the week this national fund will
reach S10,00O,0 900.
Undoubtedly, the prompt and lib
eral response to the call for funds was
due to the implicit confidence felt by
the public in the American Red Cross
When the first call for help went forth
it was made explicitly clear that every
dollar given would be spent wholly for
the relief of the stricken Japanese
people. All of the organization ex-
penses of the American Red Cross are
cared for out of the endowment funds
of that institution. Thus there is no
''wastage" of resources in sending re-
lief to Japan. The money is spent in
this country almost wholly. and the
supplies themselves are shipped direct
ly. In many cases great corporations
have contributed goods at cost.
The record of instant helpfulness
that has been written by this country
in the Japanese disaster is one Of
which the American people will always
be proud, and which cannot fail to win
the warm friendship and enduring con.
f1dence of the japanese.

An. Important December Meeting

The meeting of the republican ma
ttonal committee, which Chairman
John Adams now expects to call for
the second week in December in the
National Capital. cannot fail to have
great political significance and effect.
Ostensibly the meeting is for the
purpose of selecting the next conven-
ton city and of fixing the date of the
gathering of the republican hosts. But
the republican leaders from all parts
of the Union will be gathered in com.
mittee meeting for the first time under
the changed conditions arising out of
the death of the late President Hard
ing. 1t may be expected that senti-
ment regarding the nomination of the
next republican standard bearer will
crystallize.
More and more, as the country and
the political leaders watch President
Coolidge and his administration of the
government, the conviction grows that
he is to be the nominee to succeed
himself. From Florida and Missouri.
from New England and Ohio and from
the Pacific coast comes the word that
the former Vice President and present
Chief Executive is looked to as the
successor of Mr.. Harding. not only for
the remainder of the present term of
Office, but also for the nomination in
1924. The denomination of Mr.. Hard
ing had been conceded. Senator Hiram
Johnson of California, regarded as a
probable contender for the nomination,
in a letter to a friend had indicated he
would not make the race.
With the death of the late Presi.
dent, however, it was Immediately
suggested that the race was open to
all contenders; that the favorite sons
would all toe the mark at the next
convention.
President Coolidge has been in Of
flee only one month. The impression
which he has created. however. is as
deep as six months or a year might
have effected. The talk OF an open
race is fading away, and in it's place
more and more confidently is heard
the prediction of a Coolidge nonina-
ton.

Machine-Made Punishment.

F A bit of queer news comes from
Winnipeg that the crown prosecutor,
or prosecuting attorney, advocates me-
chanical methods in delivering cor
poral punishment to first offenders. He
proposes the use of u machine which
would have instruments varying from
broad paddle to a cat-o'-nine tails.
and so geared as to deliver punishment
with different degrees of severity" He
would have this machine take the
place of corporal punishment by hand,
and 1t is said that he believes such an
innovation would materially reduce
!. the crime record.
This crown prosecutor may be a
humorist, or he may be a very dull
fellow Winnipeg is not in our west,
but in Canada's west, yet in the old
east it is believed that throughout the
west emphasis is laid on progress. Ma
chine f1ogging might be superior in
some ways to hand f1ogging. It would
save labor and increase the output of
punishment. But in the east corporal
punishment is going out Of style, and
in most states is out of date. Persons
of advanced ideas and morals believe
that handmade corporal punishment
produces no other than bad results,
Il and although machine methods might
be .,time-saving and economical, it is
! thought here that beating by ma
chinery would not be forward step.

on exposure as tn prevent its shipment
any distance except during excessively
cold northern winters, when it is
frozen" Ignite is infiammable. and
takes fire often from spontaneous com.
bustion, so that it's storage in confined
spaces Is dangerous. 1t does not
coke" as bituminous coal does, and
when thrown on a fire disintegrates
and passes unburned through CRATE
bars.
The idea that Ignite could be made
use of as fuel has long been enter
tanned, and encouraging laboratory ex.
periments with it have been numerous.
Congress in 1919 appropriated 500, 900
for an investigation by the bureau of
mines to determine the commercial
practicability of producing a solid fuel
from Ignite. The Canadian govern.
ment has expended about a million
dollars in experiments for the same
purpose. The bureau of mines, at its
Pittsburgh station, has carried on a
series of experiments, and has de.
veloped carbonizing oven which pro.
duces from Ignite a substance, called
ignite char, which possesses heating
properties similar to those of hard
coal.
In late statement on this subject
the Department of the Interior says
that efforts of the department are
now being directed toward the adop-
tion of the new Ignite carbonization
by some commercial concern to make
the benefits Of this invention available
to the coal-consuming public" 1t may
be that we are on the eve of stu
pendous increase in our fusi supply,
but it is not expected that this de-
velopment will come quickly. The in
dications are that we will pay eNtor-
tionate prices for coal for a considera-
BILE time. But in the background Is the
possibility, even the probability, that
the vast Ignite deposits of the coun-
try will become available as fuel.

The "Pony Express. ,

The modern transcontinental pony
express riders have beaten the time
made by those riders who carried mail
river and the Bay of San Francisco
before the building OF railroads across
the western wilds. The revival of the
old express was attended with interest
in the west, and attracted a fair meas
ure of attention in the east. Pioneer
and frontier celebrations are frequent
in the west, and q large part Of the
people hold the early days in affection.
Those days were not SO long ago, and
the stage coach, enigrant wagon train
and express riders are remembered by
many persons. In parts of the west
the stage coach of the "Deadwood"
tvne is not extinct, but one has to
travel far in the wilderness to find it.
Where railroads have not penetrated
the gasoline car has.
The seventy.five relay riders from
st. Joseph or est. Joe," No, to San
Francisco were on the road 15S hours
and eight minutes, or a little more
than six and half days, making an
average speed Of thirteen and three
quarter miles an hour. The schedule
of the old pony express was 200 hours.
or little over eight days, at an aver
age of 10.7 miles an hour. The new
pony express made the trip in less
time than the mixed emigrant and
freight trains made it in the '70s and
sos over the Union Pacific and Cen
trail Pacific, and required but little
more time to make the crossing than
was taken by first-class passenger
trains in the '70s.
The present feat is entertaining, but
not especially significant, Horses and
