2 Y. B - { { { AQUIS RAIDING |¢ AMERICAN FARMS Richardson Construction Company Reports Colony from United States in Great Danger. CRUISER RALEIGH IS ON WAY TOPOLOBAMPO, Mex., Dec. 10.— (Via Radio to San Diego, Cal.)— Yaqui Indians are now on the war-| path and are ralding the American | settlement in the Yaqui valley, ac-| cording to reports just received from | Cuaymas. The Richardson Con-| struction company, which owns ap- proximately 1,000,000 acres in the valley, has sent out an appeal to the American consul at Guaymas asking that protection be immediately fur-| nished, as the American colony is! wholly without protection in the val- | ley, where the Indians are reported | as raiding farms, driving off stock, burning American harvests and mov- toward the experimental station. No American casualties have Mn reported. Five hundred Ind'an warriors engaged | Mexican troops for three hours yesteday along the Porfirio Diaz canal between | Cocorit and Esperanza, but the result of | the encounter has not been learned. | Admiral Winslow, who is here with the crulser San Diego, has directed the crulser Raleigh, en route from Guaymas to Topolobampo, to proceed to Tobari | bay, which {s the nearest approach to | the American settlement. The Raleigh is | due to arrive there early today. | Earller advices from Guaymas state that 600 infantry sent south from Her- | mosillo especially for the protection of | the Yaqul districte arrived in the valley | yesterday, but they continued on to the southward, as did a part of the cavalry | from Esperanza. Indians attacked the gartison protect- | ing the Southern Pacific employes re- palring the bridge over the Yaqui river, | and fighting continued yesterday and carly today at that point. Three rail- road officlals have sent an appeal to | General Diegues for greater protection in this district, as has been promised.

Little Alice's mother took her down town to Burgess-Nash Toy Town, where, on the fourth floor, dwells Santa Claus, who writes long lists of juvenile wants in a big bookkeeper's ledger, “Now, what is it you wish me to bring @ou for Christmas, little lady?"’ asked the kindiy saint, as tiny goldenhair was led timidly forward at the end of a parental forefinger. When Alice had told him all about the wonderful doll and the many other things she wanted he wrote it all down carefully and would have kisseq Alice if Alice’s mother had not mistrusted the § white whiskers, SOMETHING HAPPENS TO ALICE Just then something funny happened. There was a blur of lights and Alice clung tightly to her mother's hand until it was oyer, But when it all became quite clear again—what do you think? Alice’'s mother was gone and she was holding to the lons wooden fingers of a queer little wooden man, who was lead- ing her through long alsles filled with oassling toys and explaining busily as he progressed. “You see that large doll there, the one with blue eyes and golden hair,” ex- plained the wooden man. ‘‘She Is queen of the dolls, but she is most awfully stuck up and will not even loak at the othess, 50 I think we will hurry right by her or we may be snubbed. FORGETS HER HURT FEELINGS Alice’s feelings felt somewhat hurt, but in & moment her attention was distracted and she forgot her wounded dignity, “Oh, hsten,” she exclalmed suddenly. “Isp't that just too sweet? Why it sounds just like a lady singing in our big Vietrola at home, but I don't see f#t vhere." ' sald the wooden man. “It's mot a Victrola, but it is a little talking machine that will reprcduce any volce or sound the blg Victrolas will." 'Why, 1 know that song,” asald Alice, “mother sings thac to me often." Just then little Alice caught a gllmpee of what she thought was a great com- motion—birds, animals, men, ete., running around, in all directions, jumping over each other, falling down and making all manner of noise. She tried to tell the wooden man about it, but he would not | listen, but insisted that they go over | and look at the trains. J And in a moment they were standing ' beside a miniature track and watching the trains roar past on their way to dis- tant parts of the great city of Toy Town at Burge TUNNELS THIICUGH TOY TOWN | There were tunncls through mountain sides and Dutch windmills and town houses; a blg sand derrick, pile driver | and all sorts of odd things along the track A light flashed along the track and before Alice could ask what it meant the wooden man exclaimed, ““That's the danger wignal, the limited express 1i» coming.” But Alice was so fascinated thet she was not quick enough, so the wooden man selsed her arm and attempted to drag her away by foree, ‘Oh,” eried Alice, “you are pinching my arm, Do stop or you will make it Ilack and blue, Mother says—" but the ooden man was gone and the limited must have' slipped by very quickly in- deed, for it, too, had disappeared and Alioe had only been asleep for two or three minutes and her mother did not even guess it—she was 80 busy buying Alloe the big stuck-up dell that wouldn't to any of the others I s Sunday, Doc 12,1915 e A Viewor Makes an A THE OMAHA SUNDAY BEE: DECEMBER 12, 1914 BURGESS-NASH STORE NEWS FOR MONDAY - Give Wer a Ohickering __for s Olristmas Oift.
