Above is a sample of tho printed treasury notes issued by General
Pelaez, in southern Mexico, until the Carranzistas captured his print

on a typewriter, as shown, below The notes were brought to this
country by E. A. Palm, an engineer, who arrived here yesterday
on a British steamer.
HE'S FUSSY ABOUT HIS FOOD AND HE
BATHES HIMSELF, DOES THIS BUG
And Yet His Captor and Keeper Thinks He Is a Blood
Relative of the Vampire Insect That
. Bit the Dooley Baby
A new species of the "Dooleybug," that
gained famo by biting the baby of Harry
S. Dooley, 1837 South 57th street, and by
the cleverness It displayed ln eluding all
traps set to catch It, has made Its appear
ance ln tho northwestern section of the
city.
Ono of tho species, which has caused
ccn&lderable comment among residents of
that section, has been captured by Rich
ard Ostertag, and displayed in a glaBS
case ln the window of Mr. Ostertag's
place of business, Ubcr and Norrls
streets.
Tho bug Is six Inches long, and, with
the exception of a narrow band of green
at the base of Its wings. Is reddish-brown
In color. The head somewhat resembles
that of thi oft-described but never Been
"Jersey Devil," that terrorized Jcrscyltes
four years ago. The bug has six legs,
each one twlco ai long as the body.
Three times a day must th "Dooley
bug" bo ted. Its meal times are as regu
lar as those of the average human being,
although Its food Is somewhat different.
For breakfast, Ostertag feeds It grass
hoppers, and by way of a change ln
menu, roaches are substituted for lunch.
Grasshoppers are the main offering for
dinner.
In eating, the insect has a style all its
own. It will grasp a defenseless grass
hopper between Its two front legs, and
proceed to chew Its head off: then the
body follows, and the wings and the legs
ere cast nsldu.
Not only ln eating Is the Insect differ
ent front any other ever seen In this
section, but It has several other char
acteristics that seem to place It In a class
of Its own. Most bugs, according to a
reliable authority In "bugology," are not
particular whon it comes to bathing.
But not so Mr. Dooleybug. After each
meal ho washes himself first his face
and then tho rest of his person. Tho
method employed Is the same as that ln
vogue In feline circles.
Ostertag will communlcato with Dooley
today In an effort to determine If the bug
Is really In any way related to the strange
Insect, the arrival of which Dooley re
ported a week ago. At the time, he said
that It lit upon his baby and sucked the
blood from it. Becnuse of this, ho said,
tho child's health was affected, and he
was compelled to send the baby.away In
order to escape tho ravages of tho insect.
BETTER TRAINING FOR
SCHOOLGIRLS NEEDED
Dr. Garber, Acting Superin
tendent, Favors Improvement
of Teaching Methods
"Our girls should be better prepared.
If the courses In the schools were im
proved we could do more for the girls ln
preparing them to tako up their work
outside hi a more Intelligent way."
Dr. John P. Garber, acting Superinten
dent of Schools, thus mado an urgent ap
peal to the Rotary Club at Its luncheon
In the Adelphla Hotel today. He asked
for co-operation between the manufac
turers and the School Board, so that the
girls would be able to continue their
studies when working. Mr. Garber urged
time schedules wherein the girl workers
could find time to study.
"The working girls ln this city are be
coming a problem," he said. "There are
moro than 11,000 girls working ln fac
tories and machine shops here, and I be
llpvo that If the time schedules were Im
proved so that they could study a little,
conditions would Improve. We also need
more training In the schools for girls so
that when they graduate they will not
be totally unprepared to enter business.
Not so many girls would then have to
accept positions In factories."
SUITOR GONE WITH $100
Breach of Promise Alleged Against
Married Man by Widow He
Agreed to Wed
The fact that he had a wife living and
two children did not deter Isadore Den

The woman said Denenburg obtained a
marriage license In Camden after being
accepted by her, but some difference of
religious views caused a delay. They
lived together pending a settlement ot
tho matter until Denenburg disappeared
with MOO bolonglng to the woman.
Today Mrs. Doupalof brought suit to

TONS OF DIRT FALL
ON THREE WORKMEN
Wooden Supports Give Way and
and Laborers Are Plunged
Into Excavation
Three workmen employed ln excavating
for the Bulletin Building annex on Fil
bert street, near Juniper, were burled un
der several tons of dirt today when the
wooden supports gave way under tho
sidewalk, dropping the dirt 30 feet to the
bottom of the excavation.
Hundreds of people from nearby office
windows watched a big steam shovel and
a gang of workmen dig out the men ln
less than 10 minutes.
To were unconscious when found nnd
taken to the Hanhnemann Hospital suf
fering from cuts and bruises and internal
Injuries. They are Nicholas Salagal, 613
South Clarion street, and Benjamin Pri
vanl, of 706 South 8th street. The other
man, Leo Lemon, of UU South Ban
croft street, received first aid treatment
and went back to work.
The men were employed by Peoples'
Brothers-, who are making the excavation
tor the building. It Is believed that the
pressure from the street was too great
for the wooden supports, which caused
them to give way.
Hundreds of persons gathered after the
accident, and the Reserves were com
pelle to rope off the street to prevent a
further cave-In.

MINE WORKERS
MEET TO MAKE
Recognition of Union Will
Be Chief Item in Ex
tensive Program
WANT EIGHT-HOUR DAY
WILKES-BARnE. Ta., Sept. 8.-Dele-Rites
from local unions of the anthracite
field, with the district officers and om
ciais of the International organization of
the United Mine Workers of Amer'ta,
nro here and have settled down to formu
late carefully their demands for n new
working ngrcement with the nnthrae'le
operators.
John P. White, International president:
William Green, formerly the national
stntlstlcan and now treasurer of the or
ganization, nnd leading field workers ot
the mine workers, will aid n committee
selected by tho convention to form a set
of demands which the convention will
adopt.
While there Is general peace talk among
the officials of the unions, and although
tho operators have been recently urging
peace In the ranks, It Is certain that the
miners will stand behind their demind
for complete recognition of the union,
which will assure permanently tho life of
the organization and which will forco
every man In nnd about the mines Into
membership of the mine workers.
It Is generally admitted that there will
be a large set of demands, but the chief
Item will bo the demand for recognition.
An eight-hour day will bo another big
demand.
Next In Importance will be a more sat
isfactory way of adjusting grievances be
tween miners and employers than through
the board ot conciliation, which was es
tablished by tho Anthracite Strike Com
mlshston In 1902. A wage Increase of 20
per cent, will be another Important de
mand, and after this will come demands
of minor Importance.
NEGROES TO URGE MAYOR
TO STOP "BIRTH OF NATION"
Delegation From Lodges Will Con
tend It Onuses Disorder
Trotest agalnet production of "The
Birth of a Nation" at the Forrest Thea
tre wilt be carried to Mayor Blankcnburg
by a committee representing negro or
ganizations. The committee will ask the
Mayor to use the authority vested In him
by the act of 1913.
Under this act, they contend, the Mayor
Is empowered after receiving written
complaint to exercise the police power
of the city to, prohibit any production
which, If continued, Is likely "to be hurt
ful to the community at large," nnd
agalnet which there has been public pro
test. Tho protestants say that the Injunc
tion was Issued by Judge Ferguson be
fore the picture play actually had been
produced here Their argument, they con
tend, calls upon the Mayor to stop the
plnv for a different reason. Director
Porter ordered the play stopped because
he feared disorder! they ask the Mayor
now to stop It because there has been
disorder.
Among the negro organizations repre
sented on the committee are the Negro
Masons, the Negro Odd Fellows, the
Negro Knlghta of Pythias nnd the South
ern League.
A delegation of negroes entered City
Hall estcrday to see Judge Terguson,
but through a mistake In arrangements
did not meet him. It was said today they
wero under misapprehension that a fur
ther hearing hnd been arranged. While
thev were waiting two negro attorneys.
M. Luther Nicholas and a. Edward Dick
erson. were ln conference with City Solic
