U. S. Aids Gomez to
Escape Huerta
De La Bara Said to Be Ready to Demand
Explanation from “Uncle Sam”
Washington, April 21.—Francisco
Tasqitez Gomez, who escaped fro
Mexico- on a steamer from Vera
Craz, despite attempts o fofficers of
the Hnerta government to take him,
Arrived In Washington today and
Joined Gonzales Gante, representing
the Carranza Constitutionalists.
Gomez was permitted to leave Mex-
•ico because American Consul Canada
at Vera Cruz refused to permit his
removal from the steamer without a
warrant. While the Huerta govern-
ment asked that he be delivered to an-
swer an alleged civil offense, no se-
cret was made that he was suspected
■of being inimical to the Huerta and
Diaz government.
As the supporter of Madero, AJomez
van for vice president of Mexico and
was defeated. He has a following con-
sidered a powerful faction in Mexican
politics. —
als of the Mexican embassy
said today they had not received
instructions from Foreign Minister De
la Bara to take uji with the state de-
partment the conduct of Consul Can-
I sda at Vera Cruz, nor had they made
any representations on that subject of
their own initiative.

May Demand Explanation.
Mexico City, April 21.—It was stat-
ed today that Francisco de la Barra,
Mexican foreign minister, has asked
for an explanation through the Mexi-
can embassy at Washington of the
conduct of Consul William H. Canada
at Vera Cruz, who Is alleged to have
prevented the arrest and removal from
a Ward line steamer of Dr. Francisco
Vasquez Gomez.
^ It is understood Dr. Francisco Go-
mez, who was ofrmerly minister of
education and at one time in charge
of the financing of the Madero move-
ment, with headquarters at Washing-
ton, is alleged to have been implicat-
ed in the Zapata rebelion, although
his capture was sought by the Mex-
ican authorities on a civil charge.
When the military authorities were
on board the Ward liner and demand-
ed the delivery of Gomez, Consul Can-
ada refused to permit it on the ground
that the country was under martial
law and that only a warrant issued
by a competent judge could be hon
ored.
SILOS IN TEXAS.
There has never been a time when
as many silos were being erected in
Texas as jxow. Prior to a few
months ago there was not a silo fac-
tory in Texas. Now there are three
At Work or In process of building in
Fort Worth. A number have been
«old in this part of the country and
Acores of others are being contem-
ted. They are no experiment. In
North ad East where land val-
are so high that everything has
to be saved, they have been using
them for many years. There is
enough feedstuff wasted in this
country every year to feed the cattle
on a thousand hills and we believe
it is a question of but a few years un
til Knox Prairie will be dotted with
the big barrels all filled with feed-
stuff.—Munday Times.
There are now five firms in Fort
Worth engaged in the building of
silos and they are kept busy in order
to supply the demand.—Fort Worth
Record.
TEXAN RELEASED FROM
CAN JAIL.
MEXI-
? Temple, Texas, April 21.—What is
leved to be the severest penalty
3sed against a man for whipping
liiDy in Texas has been given Ed
iz, a farmer living near Temp o,
lz was fined $1,000 and sentenced
tyro years in jail or on the country
for whipping 8-year-old Earl
ike. _
besides this fine, Munz must nay

lars; a $500 judgment in a damage

ce.
he Blake boy’s father is dead. His
er not being able to care for him
eed to let Munz take him for his
and clothing to do the* chores
ut the farm.
kther P* A. Hickman, pastor of
Mary’s Catholic church, and who
o humane officer, found the boy,
after hearing his story, and look-
at the w’ounds, filed a complaint
t Munz. He was placed on
'and pleaded guilty. His only rea-
for whipping the boy was that
told a lie.”
stimony developed that the un-
referred to was that the boy had
that he got water for the chick-
from the well, when he had g t-
it from the cistern.
The boy testified that Munz had
whipped hi m“lots of times,” and that
that he could remember he had whip-
ped him “awful hard.”"
The whipping that resulted in the
arrest of Munz had been done while
the hands and legs of the boy were
tied. A buggy whip and a blacksnake
whip, each used to flog the child.
When Father Heckman found the
boy and. took him to Temple at the
time the complaint was made, a num-
ber of citizens learned of the extent
of the boy’s injuries, they became
so enraged that the officers deemed
it unwise to take their prisoner
through that city, but made a detour
to Belton where he was placed in the
county jail.
Attorneys for Munz pleaded for
leniency, but when the body of the
boy was bared before the jury the
members were moved to tears, but not
tears for the defendant, as shown by
their verdict, which was the extreme
penalty for aggravated assault—$1000
fine, two years in jail and the court
costs.
A reporter and stage photographer
for the Record returned from Temple
Monday and while there took the pic-
tures accompanying this article,
which show, to a certain extent, the
cuts and bruises on the back and front
of the body, which in places had the
appearance of a raw beef stake. One
ear was almost torn from the head.

NEGRO ATTACKS HOTEL MAN,
A negro porter at the new Lamar
hotel at Blossom, who went there two
or three weeks ago from Sherman,
created some excitement about 11
o’clock lagt night by attacking the
proprietor of the hotel. The negro
was drinking and became impudent.
While being reprimanded he seized a
butcher knife and attempted to as- '
sault the proprietor with it, but the
knife was taken from him. He then
seized a slop jar and hurled it in his
face cutting a gash clear through his
lip, which required three or four
stitches. The negro then left the ho-
tel and Constable George Hill was no-
tified. He found the darky on the
corner and after searching him turn-
ed him over to some men and boys
to watch until he could go in the ho-
tel to se how bad the proprietor was
hurt. Just as he started to walk away
the negro took to his heels. The con-
stable chased him a considerable dis-
tance and fired three or four shots
at him before he succeeded in re-
capturing him. He was lodged in the
calaboose on a charge of aggravated
assault.—Paris News.
ANNIVERSARY OF A BIG SNOW.
The cool weather yesterday with a
prediction by the government bureau
of frost this morning .served as a re-
minder to the old timers that on
April 11th, 1857, just 56 years ago
today, the biggest snow fell that ever
fell in Paris so late in tfye season
w'ithin the memory of the oldest in-
habitants. The whole face of the
earth was covered with the white
mantle and all fruit and vegetables
were killed. Even the leaves on the
forest trees were killed and for a long
time it looked like they would not put
forth again. J. M. Long said that he
had a vivid recollection of the big
*».
snow. He walked" out to the home of
his uncle,'froah Trouser,, who was liv-
ing six miles nbrth of town, in his
shirt sleeves and barefooted, and he
Came near freezing before he got back
home.—Paris News.

Rochester, N. Y. April 17.—After
twelve years’ confinement in Mexican
prisons, Leslie E. Hulburt, once a law-
yer connected with the district attor-
ney’s office here, his brother-in-law,
William Mitchell, and their alleged ac-
complice in supposed insurance frauds
Dr. Charles S. Harle of Abilene, Tex-
as, are to be released.
This information came to the of-
fice of the district attorney today in
a letter from the insurance company
detective who brought about the con-
victions.
Hulburt was confined in San Juan
de Ulloa prison when Felix Diaz was
sent there, and the latter became in-
terested in the lawyer. With Diaz’s
attainment of power he obained the
pardon of the men.
Harle Is a Texan.
United States District Attorney Wil-
liam H. Atwell has for several years
represented Dr. Charles S. Harle and
was instrumental in securing his re-
lease from the Mexican prison.
Judge Atwell made several trips to
Mexico to see his client. At one time
he talked with him while confined in
the underground dungeons of Fuerte
del Ulloa at Vera Cruz. Dr. Harle
was released from the sea coast fort-
ress and removed to the Chihuahua
penitentiary at the request of Judge
Atwell. He was released from the
penitentiary by the Huerta adminis-
tration after having been in jail
twelve years. His mother lives at
Abilene, Texas.
NETTLERASH.
The rash, as a rule, appears sud-
denly, and consists of raised patches
of a red colour, and then turning
white, looking very much like blisters
by nettles. It is accompanied by in-
tense itching, and if the skin is
scratched too much, sores will fol-
low. The irritated part should be
bathed in a solution of one teaspoon-
ful of bicarbonate of soda in half a
pint of water. Sometimes a weak
solution of amonla will give relief.
A warm bath should be taken, in
which six tablespoonfuls of bicarbon-
ate of soda have been added to the
water.—Farm and Ranch.
