SATURDAY. APRIL 25. BITTER AGAINST UNITER STATES Chilean Public Opinion Against Uncle Sam As Result of the Mexican Crisis. Valparaiso, Chile. —Public opinion nere 'is bitter against the United States as a result of the Mexican crisis. In an editorial The Union asks if there is any international mo rality and continues: “The war in Mexico is the result of a want of common sense and of the revolutions in Mexico. The proceed ings of the United States are not jus tified. That country cannot be the judge of foreign civil wars and ought to have limited its protection to its nationals and its frontiers. The war against Huerta offends the Mexican nation. The conflict will end as on other occasions in a new dismember ment of Mexico. The punishment is out of proportion to the offense—the incident at Tampico—and is a threat against the rest of America.” The Mercurlo says it is astonish ed at the exfcessive importance at tached to Jhe Monroe doctrine in Eu rope. It adds that the Latin-Ameri can republics are in the same condi tion of perfect equality as other na tions and are not subject to, and never will accept foreign interfen ence. kidnappers Trial is DELAYED; LONG DEBATES Opelousas, La.— Lengthy arguments as to the admissibility of evidence has delayed the trial here of AV.

London.—While acknowledging that on broad grounds the American gov ernment's action towards Mexico is justified, The Nation severely criti cises President Wilson. “A statesman who interferes to re store order,” it says, “may argue that at some cost and lives and treasure he is putting an end to intorelable violence and cruelty but the states man who sacrifices lives because some ceremonial detail is lacking in the ritual of an apology is behaving with let'ity unworthy of a civilized ruler.” The Saturday Review says if the intention is avowed to establish “a stable and satisfactory government in Mexico City, the United States can feel certain that their action will be watched with sympathy and approved by the other great powers.” THE FIRST SOUTHERNER TO SHED BLOOD AT VERA CRUZ New Orleans, La. —Gretna, La., is ar ranging a public funeral for.

The science arid poetry of sleep are here: Science has this In the Ixmdon Globe: Sleep begins in Its first phase by a state of distraction. . . . Imme diately afterwards, in a seeond phase, these states of distraction pass into a very delicate motor disturbance, due to the absence of parallelism in the axes of the eyes, or by the deviation of their conjugate movements. And poetry this: Hloep hath Its own world,, A boundary between the things mis named Death and existence Hlecp hath Its own world. And a wide realm of wild reality, And dreams In their development have breath. And tears and tortures and the touch of Joy. And Shakespeare's “Sleep that knits up the ravell’d shave of care." And a host of others that you ran get glimpses of in the anthologies. As between science and poetry, which gives you the truer Idea of sleep?* Exchange. UNUSUAL VALUES AT THE Wise Dry Goods Co.
