An nrntlLlunnn'. Xarratlon of III StuBuInr rixperlrnce In tha Vlty ot Mexico. "Banger ot assassination is never far from a president of any of tho republics south of us," said Mr. John Walker Bralthwalte, of London, on the way from Mexico to hla English home, reports the Kansas City Star, "and they are guarded much more careful ly than many of us imagine, for they make no great display In the matter. "This fact was impressed on we very strongly by a personal experience in the City of Mexico last spring. I had been thrown from a mule and had suffered a severe sprain In my right wrist, in consequence of which I had It closely baudaged, and after It was well enough not to bo carried In a sling I went nbontfirvlth it in the Hide pocket ot ray sack coat. "While walking with my injured band thus supported early one even ing I saw President Diaz, whom I knew quite well, coming toward me, accompanied uy o member of hit oflV clal housihold. They wero walking on the same side of the street as my self, and some CO feet behind them and at the tamo distance in front walked two men, who wore no insignia of authority and la no way showed that they bad anything to do with the president and his companion. "Ab the twu men in front neared me they separated, making room for me to pass between them, and as I was doing so the man on the loft knocked against my arm as though by accident, and naturally I drew it out and away from danger. He apologized politely In Spanish, took hold ot my handgtn Uy as he did so nnd asked if it had been Injured. As I was accepting his apology and beginning to tell ot my hurt the president came up and, greet ing me heartily, Janghed at the situa tion and explained that the two men were guardir g him and had deliberate ly made me expose my hand to mako ture that I did not hold In it a weapon with Intent to injure him. The presi dent's guardians aro very watchful and it would be almost impossible for an armed man to get'ntar enough, to " him to do him Injury." ALCHEMY OF FROST. Molature I'lnr on Important Part In the Devoloplnir I'roc- Commonly hoar f roat is described aa being frozen moisture, but this Is not an adequate description ot an ngent that has the power ot adorning In ft few hours such prosaic objects as gato posts and dustbins with all the trap pings of fairyland. Moisture is, In deed, tho fabrlo out of which all this feathery whiteness Is built up, but, al though it seems sometimes as it it Is distributed In a very oaprlolous man ner, thero are, nevertheless, certain definite circumstances which, causo tho boar frost to settle down on somo surfaces rather thai) others, says Knowledge. On any cold and frosty, morning it will usually be found that those surfaces that are the best radi ators of heat aro also those that aro tho most successful In collecting hoar frost. It Is not always realized, how ever, that all objects are continually; radiating heat, so that, no matter how. much they may recelvo from tho sun, they arc constantly trying-to get rid of It. A fern leaf or a stone may, per haps, receive generous supplies of heat during; the dayv'ltit as soon as night comes It hurries forspend or radiate it, aud the object that is quickest at thta work: will the soonest become cavtrtd In hoar frost, Kvery one has obsen d how the moisture from tho air will settle on the outsldo of a glnss of cold water brought suddenly Into a warm room. A similar proosss takes plaes in the open air, so that as the currents of moist air travel aoross surfaces that nro very cold they pay tribute In drops ot vapor, which In wartn weather take tho form ot dew and in cold of hoar frost. Moisture, therefore, plays ft very Important part in tho develop ment ot thes? hoar-frost pictures; but thero must not be too much, ot iU Some of the most delleate designs oo. eur durbiff the prealeuee of taUt and haze, and In towns, especially.
