ONLY WAR GAME, SAY OFFICIALS British Demands For Protection From Insurrectos In Chihuahua Given a i Reason by Outsiders to 'Pro . tect Americans. Washington, March 8. An nrmj of approximately 20,000 men, represent ing all branches of the service, Is mo bilizing along the Mexican bonier of tho United States. It Is officially stat edand tho administration made spa tial efforts to substantiate the state ment that the sole purpose of this un uual noblllxatton was maneuvers on a grand scale for the training of offi cers and men. Whllo mrni-v afTif wno mn I,. ..111. ial circles hero to give this great , Movement the appearance of a simple I preparation for maneuvers, there were erslstent rumors thnt the government was preparing for more seriou trou ble. Confidential reports from Mexico of late have encouraged the belief of many that conditions in the Mexican government are far from being as sat isfactory as official assertions seek to indicate. Immense foreign interests are at stako In Chihuahua, for exam ple, and their owners have been very uneasy as to what would happen to i them in caso of widespread disorders. There was a report in Washington that urgent representations hod been made to the stato department that un less tho United States government im mediately made adequate preparations to protect American and foreign Inter ests In northern Mexico appeal would be. If it had not nlrendy been, made to Crent Britain to do so. The United States interests in Mex ico have been estimated as high au $1,500,000,000, and the protection of thee interests would alone account for the mobilizing of troops if the offi cials of this government were con vinced that the Mexican government might not bo able to cope with the sit uation. There Is, however, another consideration which undoubtedly hns Influenced tho president and the state department officials to make this for midable demonstration. Great Britain also has extensive railroad and mining Interests in Mexico. Tho Pearson syn dicate, a large British constructing firm, has complained bitterly to that government of interference by Insur rectos In Chihuahua. The company asked the British government to ex tend protection, which It has failed to receive from tho government of Mex ico. Tho general impression in Washing ton Is that tho nttitude of the British government has had a good deal to do with the sudden decision on the part of tho war and navy department olll- rials. ', The troops nt Galveston will be un- ' tier the command of Brigadier General A. L. Mills. The troops in the Los Angeles district will be commanded by Brigadier General Tasker II. Bliss. Major General William H. Carter will command the provisional division. When England Heard News, London, March 8. Newspapers here give great prominence to the cables announcing the mobilization of the American troops on the Mexican fron tier and the rumored action of the British government In nsklng the United States to protect British Inter ests in Mexico. Tho report of the British govern ment's action was received too late to be verified, but tho Morning Post edi torially says that this would be the, natural result of the recent interpreta tion of the Monroe doctrine and Its acceptance by the European powers. It adds that should the United States (tee fit to send an army Into Mexico it would hardly be within the power of the American government to limit the consequences of Its Intervention. It would In all probability open a fresh ihapter In American history. The in tervention in the Cuban disturbances gave fresh accentuation to the national policy of the United States and inter vention in Mexico could hardly be less far reaching in its results.

HARBOR SERGEANT TO RESCUE While Chasing a Puppy Child Plunges Into Dark Vault and Is Carried a Block and a Half Before Help Arrives. New Tork, March 8. When the doe tor patted Eddie Burrell on his wet curls and said. "Now, kiddle, I gut-sa we'll have you all right agalu soon," Eddie opened his eyes for just an In stant and then resolutely closed them tight. For Eddie believed that dead people's eyes are shut, and he knew that he was dead. How near to death he really had been this four-year-old youngster will probably be told when he grows up. He was for au hour and fifteen min utes in the black vault of the sewor under Eighty-sixth street with the freezing water lapping his chin and with the river mouth of the sewer less than a block away. Policemen search ed the cavern only for his body. They found Eddie alive and with his face turned toward the light. Eddie is the son of Edward Burrell and lives at 320 East Ninetieth street. Eddie's mother went to call on a friend and took .Eddie along. They walked down East End avenue, Mrs. Burrull chatting with an acquaintance, whom she Joined on the street. At East Eighty-sixth street and East End avo nue a street cleaner had the cover of the manhole off, and he was pushing piles of slush into the mouth of the sewer. Just as the street cleaner had gont? to the other side of the street a puppy dog came down the street. Mrs. Bur re 11 and her friend had passed the open tunnhole and were stepping on to tho curb across the street when Eddie made a dash to capture tho puppy. Mrs. Burrell turned to look for him, but she did not see him. But she did see the round black hole in tho middle of the asphalt and n yellow puppy standing at the edge, with head cocked. looking down Into tho blackness. The mother sensed disaster and she scream ed. The street sweeper said that he had seen no little boy fall down that holiv Peoplo came running, aud the mother appealed hjsterically. Iler Eddie had fallen into the sewer. A quick alarm was sent to headquarters, to the bu reau of sewers and to the station of harbor police precinct at the foot of One Hundred and Twentieth stroct From the last point came effective aid. Sergeant Mulhall and Officer Culleu appeared. Mulhall went to the man hole nearest the river and with a Inn- torn and rope disappeared down the hole. He waded slowly up in tho dl reetion of the shaft of light which marked the opened manhole a block away. He soon saw a round object outlined against the light ahead. Three steps and he had Eddie In his arms. An ambulance came from tho Pras byterlan hospital on tho chance that the boy might be found nllve. Dr Terry hod Eddie's clothes off in a niln ute and was nibbing his body with al cohol. "Nothing nt all the matter with him," the doctor said, "except that ha Is chilled through and scared. We'll keep him down at the hospital for awhllo to look out for pneumonia, that's all." GOES WITH KING'S BLESSING Dr. Jowett Will Preach First Sermon In New York Next Monlh.

There are several ways of transform ing a venerable fowl Into a respectoblo family piece de resistance, in fact, by tho following method such fowls have been made ns tender ns spring chick ens: Let the bird, nfter drawing, sea soning and stuffing, simmer until over half done. Then place it in the oven with a piece of pork lnld over its breast. Pour the liquor over and around the roast in the pan. Finish the cooking in a very hot oven, bast ing frequently with the drippings. When ready to serve skim oft any su perfluous fat that may be in the pan before preparing the gravy. The pork prevents the fowl from becoming dry, and if a small onion is also added it will have a more savory flavor. The simmering lessens Its toughness. In fact, slow simmering is just the thing for any tough meat, but it should sim mer, not boll. Boiling will toughen the tenderest of meat. A Death Lure. According to tradition, Kenith, the egendary king of Scotland, was al lured to his death in a most novel man ner. Kenith had slain a son and broth er of Fennella, who to bo avenged or dered Wiltus, a famous silversmith, to construct a death dealing statue of sil ver. In Its right hand the statue held a basin and in the left hand an apple of pure gold, both set with diamonds and other precious stones. To touch the apple was to defy death, it belug so arrnnged that any one guilty of such vandalism would be immediately riddled by poisoned arrows shot from openings in the body of the statue. Kenith was invited to inspect the won der, and, ns Fennella had hoped, he tried to pluck the precious imitation fruit. When his hand touched the np- ple he was wounded by the arrows and died where he fell. Animal Life on Venus. 'There are many physical reasons for thinking that if nny other planet besides the earth is inhabited It is probably Venus," says Professor Pick ering. "It is about the same size as the earth, and its density is about the same. Tho force of gravity upon its Burface Is only slightly less than that on the earth. The temperature on Venus is probably tho same as in our own tropics, and the dense atmos phere may bo of a composition such ob enveloped tho earth when in tho carboniferous period. As to the ex istence of intelligent life, the question is still open. If it Is ever established that the planet Venus is inhabited it will be less surprising than If the same were proved conclusively of any other planet, owing to the similarity in many respects of Venus and the earth." A Cotton Legend. Cotton was the theme of ono of the most fabulous nature stories on Its first introduction Into Europe. Trav elers related that in Tartary there grew a shrub and that when its ripe fruit was cut open within was "a lyttlo Beaste In flesche, in bone and blode as though It were a lyttle Lamb with outer wolle." Tho flesh of this "vege table lamb" was eaten, ran tho story, and the wool made Into cloth. The basis of the legend Is tho way In which the cotton pod ripens and bursts, show ing the white fluffy raw cotton, which closely resembles wool. Raw cotton la still called "cotton wool." A Hint.

The Romans had three recognized methods of applauding the bombus, the Imbrices and the testae. Tho word bombus did not carry any allusion to explosives. On tho contrary, this form, of applause was the most decorous, In asmuch as It consisted merely of a humming or buzzing noise. Thus In a way the Romans were the first "to make things bum" In a public assem bly. Tha bombus was not the chief feature tho Romans had to offer In the way of applause. The imbrices meant a demonstration made with tho hollow of the bunds. The testae meant the striking together of the flat portions of tho hands. From this we may con clude that the Romans clapped, but there is no certainty on this point New York Herald. How Could Hn? Aunt You will never learn how to manager your money. Karl.
