In the south of France was, and
probably still is, the great Chateau

early youth as the favored son OF de-

supreme respectability. From the

'It is true, sir. You need worry no

A wonderful sense of peace and re-

mans face, "Thank God, he said fer

BOGOTA. December 10.-Homes OF
several American families in Sevilla, in
the heart of the region affected by
the strike of banana plantation workers,
were saved from looting yesterday when
troops arrived and dispersed a mob
that was attacking the Americans. The
latter had defended their homes for
five hours, but the strikers were about
to rush the places with machetes when
the soldiers reached the scene.
Private dispatches stated that three
soldiers and several members OF the mob
were wounded and that $50 of the lat
ter were taken prisoner.
Strikers Rounded Up.
Both governmental and private ad-
vices agreed that the discordant ele-
ments have been rounded up near Sc
villa. The official communique today
said that the troops have closed all
avenues of escape, Seing in control at
Sevilla, Rio Frio, Aracataca and Fun
dacion. Telegraph lines have been re-
paired and railroads are again op-
Grating.
The Socialist organ Diario Nacional,
which has generally supported the
strikers as against the plantation pro-
prietors, says that the government Is
only doing it's duty in protecting for
eigners. 1t adds that the plantation
owners have sought to carry this obli-
CATION of the government to extremes,

country, it is not obliged to use its
resources merely for the sake of avoid
ing inconveniences to foreigners.

A Last Straw,

Petty annoyances--those pestiferous
worms gnawing at the philosophical
reserve of life--cause men and nations
to run amuck.
The human organism seems pretty
we'll adapted to withstand the great
troubles. but 1t has little defense against
the pexatious trifies, such as mos
quito bites, inconsiderate traffic police
men, folks who step on ones toes in a
street car, neighbors who play the saxo-
phone at one am, etc.
Different individuals are annoyed by
different things, and there can be no
1t is likely. they will continue to drive
men to murder and nations to war.
There is no use advocating laws against
them. What Jones wants prohibited
does not bother Smith in the least.
Some persons, it is possible. are not
particularly annoyed by the healthy.
we'll dressed fellows---one of them the
other day was wearing a green silk
Shirt--who station themselves on the
sidewalk in front of the White House
and accost passers-by with vexatious
familiarities in an effort to peddle GER
tain magazines, ostensibly organs of an
organization of World War veterans.
Yes, it is possible that some persons
are not annoyed by this. 1t is possible
that some persons can endure with the
utmost good humor the stock sales
talk:
Hey. there, Buddy, can I speak to
you while you're good-natured?"
In this world all things are possible
even to enduring this.
But eventually somebody is going to
run amuck, and there will be riot in
the 1900 block of Pennsylvania avenue.
