EFFORTS TO FEED
HUNGRY MEXICANS
Gonzales Gives Provision Trains
Kight-of Way Into City.
THE CAPITAL IS QUIET.
General Villa's Forces Pressing a
liively Campaign in the North.
Sisal Situation.
"Washington, July 14.?State department
advices from Mexico City
late today reported the capital quiet
with order prevailing and trains arriving
from Vera Cruz with food sup
plies. Stores and banks had not
been reopened pending arrangements
for currency circulation. Communications
between the capital and
Vera Cruz by rail and telegraph continued
and the Carranza government
departments were said to be under
process of organization as rapidly as
possible Consul General Sbanklin
cabled that General Gonzales had
given preference to provision trains
over troop trains and that arrangements
for soup kitchens to relieve the
capital's destitute were progressing
and that they hoped soon to feed
from 8,000 to 10.000 persons daily.
Auumonai uispau'uts luumuifu mc
report that the Carranza forces had
recaptured the waterworks from the
retreating Zepata army and that
there was no danger of a water famine.
General Carranza from Vera Cruz
assured nis agents here that he had
extended every protection to Mexicans
and foreigners within the capital
and announced his intention to issue
an amnesty law in the future "in
ail euueavor 10 nave mose in error
return to the true path."
In the meantime activity of General
Villa's forces in pressing a lively
campaign toward Mexico City from
the North indicates that the proposed
amnesty will not be accepted by the
most formidable of the forces opposed
to Carranza. General Villa's
Washington agents report Villa still
in control of Aguas Calientes. They
announced further advices concerning
last night's reported capture of
Queretaro, 3 0 miles rrom Mexico City
cutting off General Obregon's army
from its base of supplies. The exact
whereabouts of Obregon's army, however.
has not been ascertained for
several days.
Red Cross dispatches today from
Vera Cruz say the distribution of
Red Cross supplies in that city
through the American consulate had
been stopped by Governor Aguilar,
who said the state government proposed
to institute a public mess for
the hungry and that the needy were
few. Since that time, accordine to
the report considerable destitution
has been found.
?
Trouble has arisen again in Yucatan
over the sisal situation. American
purchasers, principally the International
Harvester Company, complaining
to the state department today
that Carranza forces have completely
cut them off from exporting their
products at Frogreso.
The navy department received a
message from Frogreso stating that
export duties had been increased and
that exports had greatly decreased
in the last month. The first narra
nve mxuuni >). me rapiuro 01 Mexico
City was received here today by
t'arran ? ' *.&?.; < y rrom Vera Cruz.
Jt states that the early engagements
in which it was reported Carrunza
troops were defeated were minor engagements
during which General
Gonzales was distributing his army
for the fnal effort.
"The actual lighting began on the
morning of rhurtday, July 8. at
Tepespan and from that time until
the finish tlie Constitutionalist forco3
lost not a foot of ground, but gained
consistently and uninterruptedly."
says the report. The lighting of
July 8 and did not end until the
enemy were behind their entrenchments
at the grand catr-l and at the
C'orrogordo.
"On the morning of July 9 fighting
was renewed with a heavy artillery
fire which shortly silenced the
enemy's artillery.

Gonzales advanced into the city
followed by reconnoltering parties,
when it wis found that the enemy
had evacuated. During Saturday
night a strong force of Constitutionalists
was detached to pursue the retreating
Zapatistas who were overtaken
at Tlalpam and defeated.
"At 10 o'clock on the morning of
July 11 the Constitutionalist forces
under General Machuca entered Mexi<#i
City only to find that the officials
of the so-called convention government
had fled In panic to Cuernavara."
BIG STRIKE THREATENED.
The Men at the Krupp Works in an
* Angry Mood.
Geneva, Switzerland, via Paris,
July 16.?A report has reached Basel
that a big strike is threatened in the
Krupp Works at Essen, Germany.
| It is said the union of metallurgical

advices are in an angry mood and
wireuien ueBirucuon 01 uiacmnery

off for three months with promises.
The advices add that several high
officials have arrived at the Krupp
Works to straighten out matters, and
that Bertha Krupp is expected to

with the workers.
The Frankfurter Gazette, according
to the news reading Basel, has
warned the administration of the
Krupp plant of the seriousness of
the situation and has advised that
the men's demands be granted.
Meanwhile, the reports state, several
regiments have been moved to the
vicinity of the works.

PEACHBB.
I met Miss Mountain Rosy in the oc- <
chard yesterday.
With cheeks of velvet blushes that
the rain won't wash away.
And also fair Elberta. and the Belle
of Georgia, too.
And they were sweet as honey when ,
the rose is wet with dew.
I plucked a few and held them in my
hand, but couldn't eat, i
They seemed like angels pleading at
the very mercy seat;
But. oh. they were so juicy, and 1 '
know I'll taste them yet
In dreams of fruited orchards that
the heart cannot forget.
They're full of Maryland summer
and the sunshine of the morn.
And none like Mountain Rosy on this
PArth u'ak pvcr horn*
Except the fair Elberta, and the
Belle or Georgia fine
In this land of Maryland summer
when the dreams of summer |
shine. ?Benztown Bard, j
A Green Monument.
Any man might envy the monument
of John H. Meyer, of Anthony,
Kan. It is a forest of 100,000
catalpa trees.
Meyer started planting it when he
was 60 years old. His neighbors
couldn't understand. They objected. '
"Why, you won't ever get any benefit
from those trees."
"They're for people to remember
me by," replied Meyer quietly.
"They're my monument. They're the
only monument I want. They'll keep
my memory green, won't they?"
He got more "benefit from them" (
than might have been expected. He
lived for twenty years after that, and
nil the time he kept on planting more
trees, acre after acre, until thre were
waving catalpas, row on row, as far
as the eye could reach from the
pleasant house in the midst of this
1,100 acre ranch.
They buried John Meyer under his
trees, as he wished. Maybe he
deeps all the better with rustling
leaves above him instead of marble.
\t any rate, he had twenty years' enioyment
of his own monument, and
twenty years' satisfaction in the
pleasure that posterity would have
n it.
"Who plants a tree plants hope,"
he poet said. What a quantity of
lope there is in those 100,000 green
sreen memorials!?Augusta Chroncle.

A school teacher instructed a
pupil to purchase a grammar, and received.
next day, this note from the

"I do not desire for Lulu shall intage
in grammar, as I prefer her to
nRage in useful studies and can learn
ler how to spoke and write properly
myself. I have went through two
?rammnrs myself and I can't say they
lid me no good. I prefer her to in?age
