A SUNDAY SCHOOL PIIOULK3I.
Canutillo, Tex., Dec. 4.
Editor El Paso Herala:
AVH1 some one tell us how to get
parents and children to come to Sun
day school. We are trying so hard to
have a Sunday school, but we cannot
get the older people out. Those who
have children do not come or send their
little folks. We have such a nice val
ley and good people no better can be
fcund, only they will not come to
church or Sunday school.
I do wish next Sunday we could have
the -largest crowd we have haa yet.
To a "ditch meeting" they come, or
any other meeting. I do not blame
them for that, but come to church, too!
We like to go to other places, also to
church. Now for the good of ourselves,
as well as the upper valley, come out.
Sunday school will adjourn next Sun
day for good if there are not enough
to come to make it interesting.

PIIEST. WILSON'S MEXICO POLICY.
Plainview, Tex., Dec 4.
Editor El Paso Herald:
Referring, to your editorial "An Army
Man's Mexico Policy." in your paper of
Monday last. I am of the opinion that
such statements made by. those not as
close in touch with the. Mexico situ
ation as president Wilson, are liable to
cause regrets in me iuiure. j
o comment euiionaiiy on a suujwi
of this character in as bold language
as is used in this article, one should
be in the same position relative to ex
isting facts as is our president. For
tunately such matters are not left to
servants of the United States like the j
officer who lays claim to this article, i
To say the least he is assuming a great
deal of liberty in taking issue with
our president on a subject that allows
him small latitude to obtain the facts.
We will let time show the public who
is in error regarding this delicate sub
ject, and in the meantime I think it
good policy to leave the matter in the
hands of those who are on the inside
and endeavor to hold up their hands.
until some grave error has been com-
muted. ;
You have a great daily paper and I
enjoy its columns from a news stand
point, but I cannot endorse such, let

with the raid, financed by English
capital, carried out by English of
ficers, with regulation arms, etc.. all
to provoke a "casus belli" for Eng
land's armed hordes to be turned loose
upon a peaceable. Christian little na
tion, and throttle to death the little
baby crawling in the dust.
Have Englishmen so soon forgotten
that diabolical crime against civiliza
tion? To accuse the United States of
i contemplating designs upon Mexican
territory, after the tolerant policy of
the present administration covering
many months, during which citizens of I
this country were ruthlessly killed,
and American property destroyed, it
seems beyond comprehension, even for
an Englishman to be so unjust, and
misguided. B. J. Viljoen,

Woman Tries to Catch
Husband Sinning; Fails
Paris. France, Dec. 6. There is a
very sadly disappointed member of the
American colony here, a lady living in
the Champs Elysees district, who is
furious at the leniency of French Juries
towards sinning husbands. The kittle
Americaine, who was married in Bos
ton 13 years ago, has no higher wish
than to marry a titled Frenchman but
cannot do so even in this unconven
tional city without first getting rid
of her present spouse. Since French
law requires her to catch him in an
act of actual unfaithfulness, witnessed
by French officers of the law. she naa
been very busy sleuthing lately. The
other day she thought she had her
husband cornered and teleponed" tne
district chief of police to put on his
tricolor scarf immediately and hurry
to the sinner's flat.
The police immediately obliged her j
and entered the flat and found tne
American in bed while in the next

declared the "evidence of unfaithful
ness was insufficient" and believed the
husbands story that the lady in the

lishwoman, was his nurse.

ENGLAND'S HYPOCRISY.
La Mesa. N. SL. Dec 4.
Editor El Paso Herald:
The criticism ofour government's
Mexican policy as cabled from London,
quoting the "Outlook" is, to say the
least, rediculous, and would move a
wooden indian to smile
Listen to the English apostle:
"War between the United States and
Mexico, if it arises, will be the first
war waged solely for private greed
the first money grabbers' war." After
saying that the United States has been
filching territory from its neighbors
for 60 years and has reduced weak
states to obsequious dependents
through the Monroe doctrine 'which
means anything it is required to
mean.' the Outlook predicts that
American dollars will create revolu
tions in Trinidad and Jamaica, as it
alleges they did in Panama and pre
dicts the annexation of the northern
Mexican states."
Think of it, it would be the first war
waged solely for greed, the first money
grabbers' war. The irony of it, apart
from all other consideration.;' What
about England's stealing of the Boer
republics, only half a decade ago? 1
What about Dr. Jamieson's invasion at
this age of ciwlization, and the armed j
lebellion at Johannesburg synchronous
Fifth Avenue Trucfe Farm
Most Expensive in World
tfJef Yrk. Dew. . The most expen
sive trjugk farm in the xorld is :
catf&fn one of the 'busiest sections of
Gotham. The plot, which faces on
Fifth avenue, is 25 feet wide and 10S
feet deep. It is assessed for taxation
at nearly $500,000. This, however, does
not indicate its actual value, as real
estate experts figure that the plot is
worth more than a million dollars, ow
ing to the fact that it is so close to
the Grand Central station, the subway
express station and other traffic con
veniences. This "farm" is an dbject lesson to
many thousands of Gothamites and
other- daHy passers and results show
that, Fifth avenue lartd is as productive
of clioice vegetables as the nearby
large truck farms- on Long Island and
in Ne'w7 Jersey. During the last sum
mer this "farm" produced corn, peas,
beans and lettuce and its owners are
envied by many of their neighbors who
are not able to secure vegetables for
their tables from their own backyards.

Philadelphia. Pa Dec 6. So long a

DESPERADO'S BODY
NOT FOUND IN MINE
Utah .,I'o.!V. Has Not Abandoned Hope
That"" PoLsonoiiK Gnuc Have
Killed Slayer of Six Men.
Bingham, Utah, Dec. 6. Still .hopeful
that the body of Ralph Lopez, slayer
of six men, would be' found in the
Utah-Apex mine, the sheriffs and their
deputies resumed their search today.
Drifts, raises and inclines in the 30
miles of underground working (were
penetrated, but as the day a"dvanced
no word reached the waitinc crowds at
the tunnel mouths to dispell their be
lief that the desperado had escaped.. It
was thought that by late today the
searchers would be able to penetrtate
every part of the mine. Since Novem
ber 21. Lopez has killed five peace of
ficers who pursued him, after he had
killed a fellow Mexican
Smudges sent poisonous gases into
the underground workings, officials
believing that Lopez would be suffo
cated in this manner.
That Lopez 'might have-made his $vay
to the lowest level and escaped from
the mine while attention -was directed
on the Andy tunnel was considered
probable.
