Geraldine Latch ha lost faith in
fairy stotits
'In her old Virginia home not
many years ago, foe. Lillian is only
17 now, she was more credulous. In
those days she was7 particularly
thrilled by the yarn of the prince
disguised as a beggar who wooed
and won the ' sighing princess , and
lived happily ever after.
Lillian never suspected that often
times beggars disguised as princes
go a wooiug in a wicked way. She
came to San Fi cisco to find that
out. 1 The disillusionment of Lillian
Geraldme is now on record in the
uperior court in the form of an an
nulment suit .

of the marriage that smashed all
her ideas of romance she cast a

Cario, Dec 25. India is slowly
slipping into a more and more dan
gerous and more uncertain condition
which offers little chance for com
promise. Indtats millions are in the
revolution for J keeps,- and nothing
Short of full home rule, apparently,
will satisfy them. . N
Behind the political and economic
unrest lies a deep race hatred eter
nally growing more bitter.
Those, in a nutshell, are my con
clusions, based on a two months' in-

Villa Seeking Chance'
To Make Entry Into
' Politics of Mexico
Mexico City, Mex-i Dec 25. Fran-
Cisco Villa, retired guerma cnici-
tairi, is believed to have some politi
cal plan in, connection with his fre
quent trips away from his haciejido,
Canutill in Durango. It is thought
that he dreams of holding high of
fice in Mexico or is desirous of
maintaining his popularity and pres
tige among- his former followers, so
as to remain powerful and formid
able in the northern states, in case
of any sort of crisis. ,
His latest trip was to1 Santa Ros-
-1:., rmirm in the state of Chi-
ana ... ,
huahua. His progress from his es-
-,t. in the state ot Durance was
that of a fuedal lord. He was
accomnanied. as usual, oy a Doay
tmard and was greeted
thusiasm on his way.
At Santa Kosaua, mere were nan-
quets, balls and serenades. Every
thing was done to convince Villa of
his houndless oomilaritv in the town.
While it ts hinted that some resi
dents of Santa Kosumraay nave
joined in the festivities with, apparent
enthusiasm as a matter of policy,
fearing that Villa might again be
come a bandit-rebel and attack the
town, it is generally admitted hat
the demonstration at Santa Rosalia
and elsewhere leaves no doubt' that
Villa has a strong hold, despite his
years of pillage upon the popular im
agination - I

Locating Vein Sought by

v
Stewart, B. C, Dec. 25. A moun
tain goat recently was responsible
for the discovery of what is believed
to be one of the most valuable mines
in British Columbia. ' "
Years'fcgo float ore was found tn
the mountain range south o$.the
Grand Trunk Pacific railway 10
miles from Stewart It was so rich
that its discovery created a' sensa
tion aM. prospectors flocked to the
region and spent months in fruitless
efforts trt tnrat the vein.
A. Finn was hunting mountain
ousts hi.h above timber line. He

ir suddenly came out on a. glacier UanieiS- UppOSeU lO
and stood in tun view against me
sky on a pinnacle of ice. Finn's rifle
cracked and the goat fell dead down
a steep precipice and rolled several
hundred feet. Its body fetched up
near the foot of the glacier and wh'en
Finn reached it he found it had dis
lodged a massive rock beneath which
the long searched for vein lay ex
posed. The lode is 5,000 feet above sea
level and 16 inches wide on the sur
face. The first assay ran 362 ounces
of silver, with 20 per cent gold and

then learned his name James Rob

name sounded like a poem.
She is Timid.

shooed her fears away. Was not
his father a multimillionaire in New

bocker families?
She believed him and ttiey were
married. 'Her dreams had come
N true. Her letters home glowed. '
At first it was lovely just like
" walking on velvet it always is.
' Then the clouds began to gather.
He seemed to count his dollars, also
