20 DEATHS RESULT OF
 GROSS CARELESSNESS

MEXICO CITY, Jan. 29.--An ignor- ant peon who forgot which was his left hand was the real cause of a water famine in Mexico City recent ly which eliminated in rioting in the main plaza in which 20 persons were killed and several hundred injured.
 This workman, an employe of the local water and light company, was told to go to small pumping sta- tion on the outskirts of the city and to turn a certain valve to the left. By the time he reached the station he forgot which way was left, and turned the valve to the right. The result was flooded engine, disabled pumps and Mexico City without water for ten days.

U. s. JOINT BALL TEAM POPULAR
 IN JAPAN

TOXIC, Jan. 29. - The combination major league baseball team from the United States, under the leadership of Herbert H. Hunter, left Japan re- gently for China and the Philippines
 after six weeks in Japan-and a very
 successful six weeks at that. They
 won everything and by large scores,
 save single game, which was fluke
 ' The great value of their visit to
 Japan lies not in the playing of games,
 but in their contact with the Japan
 ese baseball stars, in their helping these boys and giving an unprecedent- ed boost to the game in this country. | Under the tutelage of Bush, Hoyt and Pennock great improvement was mo- tfced in Tokio College pitchers dur ing their three weeks stay here, and the same applied to George Kelly's instruction of first baseman. Johnny Lavan's coaching of the native short stops, and so on through the lineup.
 The big leaguers were much i'm pressed by the quality of the players they found here, and their opinions of the possibilities of a real world l series some day, which was spoken of l by Ban Johnson last summer, do credit to the Japanese The local university pitchers are far above the average of American college hurlers, the men say, and the entire best Jap anese teams, on the defensive, rank | up with the average of American uni versity hines. On the offense-in bat ting and base running, however, the education of the young players here has been neglected, they declared
 Viscount Shibusawa and several other statesmen and local business men voiced the belief that the visit of the baseball players had a, diplomatic value. There is no doubt of it. They made many friends, among the masses for America.

MOVIE l

After having job thrown at him. the hero's task in Will Rogers latest Goldwyn picture, "An Unwilling Hero," is to avoid work. In this story by o. Henry, Will Rogers is a de- lightful tramp who is anything but heroic. But chance makes a hero of him. Nevertheless, he surmounts the honor in his own way, to the delight of all who are fortunate enough to see him in this latest hobo characteriza- tion.
 Those who remember Mir Rogers characterization in "Jubilo" and Hon est Hutch," know that this actors presentations are far removed from acting. They are real; and only be- cause Will Rogers knows the types he portrays. His early days spent on Western ranches gave him sufficient opportunity to become acquainted with many a knight of the road. And this is the knowledge that he vivifies in his various solft-collared roles.
 An excellent cast, including the charming Molly Malone, will be seen in MT. Rogers support when "An Un- willing Hero" is shown for the last time tonight.
 "The Gold Gift" Alice Lakes lat est starring picture for Metro which comes to the Empress theater tomor- row, presents this youthful star in one of the most dramatic productions of her screen career.
 It is photodrama of unusual power and action which pictures the adven- lures of young opera singer, who to earn a living for herself and child by performing in a border cafe. But the child is hindrance to her career and while the mother becomes a famous opera singer the child is left to strang CTS. At the height of the singers career the child unexpectedly appears and plays a thrilling part in a roman tic situation.

BERLIN, Jan. 29.--''What will yo, have for Christmas?" said an Ameri can woman resident in Berlin to g newly arrived male friend. "A re. volver, blackjack or nice set of brass knuckles?" .''
 "Why what, what--' stammered the newcomer, completely flabber- gasted by such a question. q don't get you"
 But don't you know" came the impatient reply, that here in Berlin you have got to carry some kind of defensive weapson? Everybody does"
 And they do.
 The word "armistice" in German is translated as "Waffenstillstand," which means, literally, "standstill of weapons" We'll, the armistice that made German weapons stand still" insofar as the Allies were concerned, became effective five years ago, but as regards Berlin the weapons still march merrily on.
 The ease with which lethal weap. ons can be purchased is positievly shocking to the newcomer. Anything from a revolver to a blackjack can N be purchased at the best sporting goods stores. .. Il Blackjack, brass knuckles, sheath knives, sword canes and numerous other ingenious devices for clubbing a man senseless vie with revolvers for popularity.
 The most ingenious, and interesting Iof them all Is the "Gummiknueppel la rubber club between six and eight inches long and perhaps an inch thick--which is affected particu larly by the younger set. It is a lethal instrument, not quite 80 deadly perhaps as the blackjack. but in the hands of a strong and determined man deadly" enough.
 This convection is put up in var ious forms to suit the individual taste. The anti-Semitic students carry "GummilnueppeT with anti Semitic Swastika, called 'Haken kreuz" here, printed thereon. The dandy, going to call on his girl 1T a lonely part of town, carries, his "kneuppeP' in a cane; if attacked he simply pulls the "kneuppel" ou of the cane and flays it about him Crime is rampant. Sneak thievery robbery, murder usually in con of the day. Every pedestrian in tht dark streets of the residential dis tricts is a potential footpad It's no wonder the nervous Berline1 doesn't consider himself fully dressed unless he has with him bludgeol of some sort.
 Yet outwardly, the town is quie and peaceful. It reminds one Of quiet sector of the French front Il the winter of 1917-1918. Everything is quiet, but you never can tel when trouble will start.
 Even more disconcerting to the pc lice than the publicity given hote thefts is the fact that sneak thie seems to be at large in the Treptov police barracks Desipte the closes watch at the entrance to the building all sorts of articles, ranging frcn water canteens to wheelbarroWs have been disappearing.
