M HOPEFUL FOR i MEXICAN PEACE President Wilson Not Disposed to Rush Matters LEADERS GIVEN OPPORTUNITY - K Republic's House Is Not Set In Or der Within Reasonable Time Wash . ington Is Likely to Issue Ultimatum Setting Date For Such a Consum mation—Embargo on Arms Means Death to Revolution Now. Washington, June 5. C&rranza, Villa, Zapata and ether Mexican lead ers must compose their differences "within a very short time" or Presi dent Wilson will issue a proclamation jsaming a date when a provisional gov ernment must be established iu the This is one feature of the esident's definite policy. It is understood that Mr. Wilson is I disposed to rush matters la Mex- and is hepeful that when the coa „cu'on is brought homo to Carranza, Y&la and the others concerned that this government is in earnest they will find away to do the Job them selves. This ultimatum will give Mexico a certain period, probably thirty or sixty days, in which to set her house in order. If by that time the Mexican warriors have not set up a govern ment the United States will act. A statement issued by the Carranza agency indicated that the first chief was in a belligerent mood, but it is understood that he has been coun seled by advisers in this country to frame a pacific communication when he replies to the president. There appears to be absolute faith among officials here that General Villa will agree to a settlement of Mexico's troubles other than by armed force and that he will promptly acquiesce in the president's proposals. Car ranza's reply may force the United States to show its hand at once. It became known that in certain circumstances Carranza might be ac corded recognition by the United States. The first chief has made progress in recent months and if in the near future he should extend the sphere of his influence his claims, some officials say, would be entitled to consideration. If the United States undertakes the establishing of a stable government in Mexico it will have the support of Europe and Latin America and the man or group given control at Mexico City will rot be harassed as were Madero and Huerta. j Happy Days Soon J Oh. the summer days are coming. And the bees will soon be humming, Where the clover tops are nodding in the sun; And the breezes will he straying 'Mongst the shadows lightly playing, While they hover where the murmuring waters run. The rainbow will be bending, All Its colors gladly lending To the blossoms that are smiling at the sky: As their perfume they are flinging Through the sunshine and the singing, And perhaps we'll all be happy by and by. When the calendar discloses June amid the dewy roses As the robin whistles jauntily and clear; When the moon Is brightly glowing And the silver river flowing Sings a melody tlie starlight stops to hear; Then the earth that seems so fretful Will grow gentle and forgetful Of the faults and follies that have made us sigh. Summer days are drawing near us, Once again to charm and cheer us. And perhaps we'll all be happy by and by. —Washington Star. FINDS IN STRANGER HER UNKNOWN SISTER. Live In Same Town, but Not Aware They Are Related. Separated when babies and living over thirty years without the knowl edge that tlie other existed, two sisters, Mrs. B. L. Ogilvie of Weston, Mass., and Mrs. Robert T. Woodruff of Squan tuui, Mass., have just made each oth er's acquaintance. Tbe women are the daughters of the iate Frank Arrington of Salem. Mass., who died a year ago. In 18S4, when Mrs. Ogilvie. then Delcie Arrington, was three years of age and her sister, Constance, thirteen months, their moth er died. The father allowed the young er one to be adopted by Mr. and Mrs. Benamin Sanborn of Wellesley. Legally adopted the baby became Alice Sanborn, and five years ago she married Robert T. Woodruff, a Lynn lawyer. Delcie lived with her father In Salem aud left him to become the wife of B. L. Ogilvie, a Weston grain merchant. They have five children and the Woodruffs one. The knowledge that Mrs. Ogilvie had a sister came to her in a peculiar man ner. While on his deathbed her fa ther was visited by his sister, who came east for the first time in twenty three years. During her stay in Salem she casually asked Mrs. Ogilvie If she had heard anything of her sister Con stance. As her father was too sick to be ask ed Mrs. Ogilvie learned from her aunt the brief facts of the early separation. Then she began a long search which ended in finding the adoption papers. One of the curious features of the case is that for a while both sisters lived in Wellesley. Before her mar riage Mrs. Ogilvie worked in the same town where her sister was going to school and. though the two looked so much alike, they never met there. GRAY CLOTH BRITISH PUZZLE. Enormous Exports From England o4 Material Used Only by Germans. England is greatly puzzled by th# fact that in the three months ending March 31 British mills exported 1,277,- 835 yards of unbleached gray cotton cloth as compared with only 170,684 yards for the same period iu 1914. Nor does the board of trade report indicate where this great quantity of gray cloth went None of the allies uses gray cloth for uniforms, but tbe Ger mans do. Nor is there less mystery in the cir cumstance that in the same three mouths British merchants hare sold to Holland and Sweden 13.693,008 pounds of coffee as against only 3,728,- 704 pounds in the first quarter of last year, 11,824.825 pounds of cocoa as against 4,765,095 pounds. 6.068JK98 pounds of tea against ££37,23%pounds, 8,566,194 gallons of gjesftlis against only 031.5G3 gallons and teflH tw d oUeeed against only tons. - Document That Made Bryan Quit Sent to Berlin SAME DEMANDS ARE MADE Germany Has the Power to Say Whether Friendly Relations Will Be Continued or Severed —Concessions From Kaiser's Government More Than Likely Since There Can Be No Doubt as to Wilson's Stand. Washington, June 10. —The Berlin j government, it is calculated by admin- j istration officials, will be in posses sion o? the new note by tomorrow morning and it will therefore be given •o the American newspapers at that > :ime. negardless of the result of Presi- ' dent Wilson's renewed demands upon Germany to make her submarine oper- j aiions conform to the principles of in- ; ;ernational law and humanity, it is | felt that the document is almost cer- j tain to take a large place in the his- J tory of the United States. As the j cause of a cabinet crisis and a new | turning point in the career of Mr. | Bryan, it is regarded as of great im- I pcrtanee whether it proves to be the j prelude to unfriendly relations with j Germany or not. While tlie details of th. . are; being guarded carefully, officii".! are i permitted it to become known tnat the chief feature of the communica tion is a second summons to Germany to her intentions as to the ob- j servance of the principles of interna- j tional law and humanity which this government has invoked for the pro tection of American life and property on the high seas. Such contentions of Germany as to alleged facts in the Lusitania case as tlie president felt it was proper to discuss are disposed of in the note, Germany being politely told that the United States is satisfied that she has been misinformed as to the Lusitania. The tone of the note is most friendly, every effort having been made to make the expression of the United States position as little offensive to Germany as possible. Administration officials say that the future now rests with Germany. The action of the president in letting Mr. Bryan leave the cabinet rather tnar. abandon the course he and the rest of the advisers agreed on as proper was pointed to as certain to have the ef fect of stiffening tlie stand of this government. It is felt t>at now all uncertainty as to whether the president will stick j by his original position of the subma- \ rine issue has been removed. The German government has it in its power to decide, according to opinion here, whether there shall be continued friendly relations between it and this ' country. The United States most certainly does not wish a break and all Ger many needs to minimize the danger of a rupture is to make a concession of some sort which will furnish a basis on which the United States can, with j self-respect, continue to discuss the issues with her. If she ignores in her next note, as she did in he£ last, the high principles invoked by the presi dent it is felt that there is but one course open to this government, that of severing relations with Germany. The news of Secretary Bryan's res- i ignation is openly counted on by of ficials here to do more than any note could possibly do; that is, awaken Germany to the realization that Presi dent Wilson means what he has said to Germany. It has all along been felt here that Germany did not appreciate the seriousness with which America viewed the issue; that Germany was making the mistake of assuming that the United States was so anxious to avoid trouble that it would forego in sistence upon its rights. In the face of Mr. Bryan's resignation, however, it seems certain that the Germans will be convinced that President Wilson is to be reckoned with. That is why it is more than ever the opinion here that Germany in her next note must cast the die as to the future relations ' between the two governments. In German quarters here there was exhibited a tendency to dismiss Mr. Bryan's resignation as having nothing to do with the German issue. It was pointed out that in any event the Ger-' man ambassador, whose duty it is ta keep the government informed of tha attitude of this government, had his last conversation not with Mr. Bryan but with the president himself and that he could not well be under an.' apprehensions as to the president's views or intentions. So far as German quarters here are concerned the belief is still held that the situation is far from hopeless. Concessions by Germany are predict ed on condition that Germany is satis fied tacitly, at least, that the United States will be equally vigorous in de manding of Great Britain complete observance of international law. The president and his advisers are hopeful from the developments thus far that the effect of Mr. Bryan's res ignation did not seriously weaken this government's policy. A flood of tele- j grams poured in upon the White House commending the president for his course and pledging him support. The president himself Is determined willing ia appiy in this case trie prin ciple which we are bound by treaty to apply to disputes between the Unit-1 ed States and thirty countries with which we hare made treaties trend ing for investigation ef all dispaUa of OTSff, character and nature," says the Bryan statement. "These treaties negotiated under this administration, make war practically impossible be tween this country and these thirty governments, representing nearly three-fourths of all the people of the world." Bryan points out, however, that Germany, although indorsing the prin ciple, has never actually entered into a treaty of this kind. Concerning the course which should be pursued in regard to Americans traveling on belligerent ships or with cargoes of ammunition the statement says: "Why should an American citizen be permitted to involve his country in war by t-aveling upon a belligerent ship when ne knows that the ship will pass through a danger zone? "The question is not whether an American citizen has a right under in ternational law to travel on a bellig erent ship; the question is whether he ought not, out of consideration for his country if not for his own safety, avoid danger when avoidance is pos sible. It Is a very one-sided citizen ship that compels a government to go to war over a citizen's rights and yet relieves the citizen of all obligations to consider his nation's welfare. I do not know just how far the president can legally go in actually preventing Americans from traveling on bellig erent ships but I believe the govern ment should go as far as it can and that in case of doubt it should give the benefit of the doubt to the govern ment. "I think, too, that American pas senger ships should be prohibit?d from carrying ammunition. The lives of passengers ought not to be en dangered by cargoes of ammunition, whether that danger comes from pos sible explr-ions within or from pos sible attacks from without. Passen gers and ammunition should not travel together. The attempt to pr<v vent American citizens from incurring these risks is entirely consistent with the effort which our government is making to prevent attacks from sub marines." Pssnsy Orders Rail#.

Barbed wire is today as necessary a part of an army's equipment as pon toons or trenching tools. In war barb ed wire is used in various ways, bui its main object is man stopping. It is interlaced with ground pegs in front of trenches for the purpose of tripping charging troops, it is strung across bridges and main roads to prevent the passage of cavalry, and it is used for fencing in camps to guard against rushing tactics on the part of the en emy. Whenever possible barbed wire en tanglements are hidden in long grass or in hedges, so that advancing troops will be trapped while the enemy rakes their lines with shot and shell. Barbed wire concealed in undergrowth is par ticularly deadly where cavalry is con cerned, for the wire grips the horses' hoofs, causing them to fall on the spike strewn ground. At times certain roads that it is de sirable to have passable to townspeo ple have to be rendered impassable to an army. To accomplish this zigzag fences of barbed wire are built from one side of the road to the other until they form a maze. A peasant with time to spare can .pass this barrier by laboriously threading his way through the narrow zigzag passage left open but an army of several hundred men. especially if they have guns or are mounted, must halt to destroy the en tanglement The barbed wire used for military purposes possesses long, jagged joints which inflict most painful wounds on the body, especially when men and horses fall on to them headlong, as so often happens.—Philadelphia Press. The Daffodil. Originally the daffodil was known as the asphodel. From this to daffodil was the first verbal transition. The name gradually rounded itself into daf fodilly—the form adopted by Milton in the beautiful line, "The daffodillies fill their cups with tears." However, be fore Milton wrote, the flower had come to be generally known as the daffodil, and it figures under this name in John Parkinson's "Garden of All Sortes of Pleasant Flowers," published in 1629. Parkinson found more variety in the daffodil than in any other flower, near ly a hundred kinds being described in his work.—London Chronicle.
