UNEMPLOYED IN MExIC ALI
 UNDER GUARD
Mexican Federal Troops s Called Out-Ameri-
 cans Discharged

MEXICALI, Mexico, Feb. 23.- Hundreds of MeXicans, unnerved by pangs of hunger and lack of work roam the city going uneasily through the streets under watch ful eyes of Federal soldiers who stand guard over stores for fear of mob violence.
 The situation became tense over night when heavy rains threw hun- dreds of men out of work in the agricultural sections, without money with which to buy food.
 The crowds became menace to stores and proprietors of grocery stores, fearing their establishments would be stormed, handed out food without charge until the crowds be- came so large the soldiers were called to disperse them.
 One American, Perly Matthews, suspected of attempting to steal food, refused to obey police com mand to halt and was shot. A Mex ican standing nearby, was also hit by bullets. Both will recover.
 Gov. Detejada, seeking a solution of the situation has issued blan- ket order to discharge all American employees in Mexicah and replace them with Mexican labor.

I'll keep it until you think better of it. I told him. I put it in my safe. It is still there"
 When MT. Pulver was not drink ing he was not at all superstitious.
 MT Truesdell said MT. PulVer was 61 years old. His birthday was Valentines day February IA.
 He may not have appeared SC old,' explained the witness, be cause he was careful to keep his hair and mustache dyed black. :"
 Dr. L. P. Dawes was MT. Pull ver's physician. The doctor was called shortly after the finding of the body. He examined it.
 "The skull was not fractured, the neck was not broken" he informed the coroner's jury. My opinion is MT. Pulver tripped near the top of the stairs or missed his footing on one of the upper steps, and plunged head downward to the bottom, distance of perhaps eight feet. There was a bruise on the forehead.
 Was Rendered Unconscious
 T surmise that he was rendered unconscious. His head was turned and twisted under his body. In such a position, he could not breathe and being unconscious he could not right himself. My con- clusion is that he died of suffo- cation.
 There was no odor of liquor about him-not the slightest, My judgment is that he was not un- | der the influence of liquor at the time of the accident"
 MT. Norstrand was the only other witness at the inquest. Immedi- ately after MT. Truesdell went into Mir. Fox's office and informed MT Fox and MT. Nostrand ao0ut find | ing MT. Pulver, MT Nostrand has. tened to the furnace room. H< confirmed the statements of MT

JOLIET, Illinois, Feb. 23.-Three convicts were killed when lowering themselves to freedom over a 20- foot wall of the State Penitentiary here just before dawn Sunday.
 Joseph Norkiewicz and Julio Chileno, both convicted of a con- fidence game, and Alvin J. Kilman, convicted of robbery, were the three convicts killed. They were members of the kitchen detail.
 Guards were warned three weeks ago the three men would attempt to escape but they never had a chance.
 Focused by the high prison searchlight, the men jumped, not needing the command to halt.
 Two automobiles, parked near by, roared away in a hail of slugs from guns of guards and eluded pursuers.

 ST AIR VICTIM
 IN WEIRD SKEIN
Death Dashes Cup of For tune from Pulver' s Hand
 lust as He Takes It

Ernest Lee Pulver's life was en- tangled by the Fates in a weird skein. After years of monotonous work both in following his trade as a jeweler and in looking after the late Emery Valentine, the cup of good fortune, overflowing, was giv- en him, and just as he was about to raise it, suddenly it was dashed from his hand. The scene of his death the Valentine Building, was part of a rich estate that had been bequeathed him and that was ex- pected to pass soon to his absolute ownership and control.
 MT. Pulver came to Juneau about 30 years ago. He was an excellent worker at the jewellers trade. Soon after his arrival here he was em- ployed by the late MT. Valentine. Business arrangements soon merged into strong friendship, MT. Pulver was left the great bulk of the property of MT Valentine when the ldUUST QlSQ ldSG OSpJciHOCl,
 Valuable Business Property
 The property consists of the Val entine Building at the corner of Seward and Front Streets, and the stock of goods in the Valen- tine jewelry store in the struc- ture; the building occupied by Vol land, the tailor, and Ordway's Pho tograph Store on Front Street; the Arctic Building, occupied by the Arctic Cigar and Billiard Hall and the Pioneer Barber Shop, also on Front Street; a lot occupied by sheet iron garage on the east side of Franklin Street, immediately north of the roadway north of the Elks Club building; all the property occupied by old wooden buildings on the West side of Franklin Street between the Juneau Laundry and Second Street, and the lots on the south side of Second Street between Franklin Street and the building occupied by Mrs. Winn's Hat Shop.
 The only obligations imposed in MT. Valentines will on MT. Pulver was that the latter should pay $50 month to Mrs. Gertrude Thomp- son, of Juneau, colored widow, for the rest of her life on condition that she should not marry, and $l5 a month to MT. Valentines brother, Julian Valentine, of Central City, Col, for the rest of his life.
 Executor Without Bonds
 The Valentine will was filed for probate September 18, and in ac- cordance with its terms Mir Pulver was appointed executor without bonds. A few days before his death, MT. Pulver said he expected that the estate would be settled and that titles to the property would be vested in him within four months.
 AS executor, MT. Pulver had col lected the rentals of the Valentine properties and had conducted the Valentine Jewelry Store business. The stores patronage had fallen off the last year of Mir. Valentines life due to recurrent attacks of ill., ness suffered by. him, and MT. Pulver had tried to build up the trade. He had employed Mrs. Halbra Mohn as clerk. She went to Sitka about 10 days ago and is still there.
 At direction of United States Commissioner Charles Sey. who is also probate judge, M. H. Trues- dell, long time friend of MT. Pulver has made search of the latter's
