It is ungoubtedly due to the fact that Germany has upheld the action of this country in its Mexican policy that the cargoes of ammunition and firearms which were consigned to Huerta to be delivered at Puerto Mex- ico by German ships were not landed. ‘Without a willingness to use its good influence in holding up such deliverles |it 1s diMcult to see how such could have been prevented under the exist- ing circumstances, In view of the mediation proceed- ings it was impossible for this govern- ment to attempt to seize the custom house at Puerto Mexico as was dono at Vera Cruz, and in view of the pe- culiar stand which we have taken in Mexico by the occupation of Vers Cruz in an effort to, secure satisfac- tion from Huerta without any declara- tion of war against Mexico, and where in fact no war evists, we could not re- quire Germany to hold up such de- liveries. Thus the situation was an awkward one. The conditions were such as to tie this country’s hands and yet Huerta was entitled to the war material if he could get it. Such would have served to temporarily strengthen his position and defense could he have gotten it, for while me- diation is underway between the two countries it does not apply to the reb- els and they are giving him much un- easiness ,in their southward march. However, there was no assurance that those same guns and bullets would not some day be turned against our soldiers and the part played by Germany and the shipper in securing the holdup was unmistakably a grand act of friendship since it was nothing they could be compelied to do. EDITORIAL NOTES. Perhaps Huerta is waiting for some- one to compose his swan song.

Perhaps as good an explanation of this tearful spring is that Prof. Low- ell has discovered water on.Mars.

Always let the mud spots get per- fectly dry before trying to remove them, and usually a Eood brushing will be all that is required.

Let the mixture stand over might, and shake it well when it |is used. Rub the spots well with a sponge saturated with this mixture until the last one disappears, then wash the cloth with clear water. GRAPE FRUIT PUNCH. i A deliclous punch for serving at the afternoon bridge club has for its foundation the wholesome and inimi- | cal grape juice which has been rather unfortunately ridiculed this year be- cause of its favor in high political circles. Most people relish grape juice a8 a flavoring, but meny disltke the @rink unless much diluted and _dis- guished with various other flavors Grape juice punch for the afternoon bridge is made as follows: Add two ts of grape juice to two quarts of lemonade. Cut up four oranges, two lemons, one pineapple and add to the mixture. If strawberries are obtain- able, serve one or two in each glass of the punch. If they are not obtainable, 2 maraschino cherry may be dropped in each glass. Make the foundation | lemonade rather tart, but, if necessary |add sugar to the punch after the | grapetruit has been pourea in.

The attempt of Thomas Blood, who was generally called “Colonel” Biood, to steal the crown jewels of England has led to a considerable amount of controversy in an effort to show that King Charles H. had some hand in the plot. Charles was “The Merry Mon- arch” and was frequently in need of money, and in order to replenish his treasury it has been supposed by some No young man should call on a lady unless she has asked him to do so, or uniess he brings a letter of introduc- tion, or he is taken by a friend who is sufficiently intimate to invite him to call.

Before frying the bacon for break- fast cut off the rind, and dip each strip in flour, then dry or grill quickly. This prevents the fat from running and glives the bacon a better flavor.

The fact that Biood. though caught was pardoned by Charles and re- warded for a crime that would have cost any common thief his head gives color to the theory of the king's con- nivance in the attempt. But Blood was | well suited to such an undertaking and his trial created no end of interest throughout the kingdom. Blood was a soldier of fortune and to the time of the jewels episode. He was then 42 years of age and he and his desperate companions were badly in need of money. He proposed to these fellows the theft of the crown jewels and they readily accepted the 1 propo Blood devised the scheme of puttin himself into the habit of a doctor o divinity. Thus clad, and with a wo man he called his wife, he went to see the curiosities in the tower, and while they were viewing the regalia, the supposed Mrs. Blood was suddealy taken 1ll and Blood requested Mr. Ed- wards, the keeper of the regalia, to assist her with some refreshments. Hawards complied with the request and the pair took their leave with many expressions of gratitude. A few days after Blood returned and presented Mrs. Bdwards, the keep- er's wife, with four pairs of Wwhite oves in return for her kindnees. This rought on an acquaintance and Blood was ready fo carry out his scheme. Although the tower had many guards, Bdwards was the only one in charge of the jewel roam, Blood scon came again with some friends to whom he wished to show the jJewels.

Who said anything about war? Who wants war? Why all this alarm when our statesmen are ail for peace? BEvery nation says the same thing: all prime ministers cry_out in uniso “War? What! We? We are pained. | We are straining our utmost to main- | tain peace.

No statesman would dare to bring the lighted match too near the powder barrel. We must have peace at any price. Germany increases her army not because she wants war, but because she wishes to render war impossible.” Hence, to show how mild and pastoral he is, he demands that the army be incresised by 30,000 soldiers.
