hour developments in the Mexican
situation today postponed delivery of
President Wilson's special message to
congress until Wednesday and
that the government of
President Huerta after all might
withdraw or modify its rejection of
the proposals of the United States.
At the request of Senor
Mexican minister of foreign affairs,
which was based upon supplementary
suggestions by John Lind, adviser to
the United States embassy in
co City, President Wilson consented
to postpone his address to congress
until o'clock Wednesday afternoon.
It was officially stated in that con-
that in no case would the
United States withdraw from the bas-
principles of Its position paramount
among which is a consistent refusal
to recognize Huerta.
Official announcement was made of
the four original proposals by the
United States presented to Huerta
by Mr. Lind.
They

l. not being divulged here, the request
for a postponement was made.
White House officials positively
stated that Mr. Lind had not been re-
called from Mexico City and added
that if he had left for Vera Cruz it
would be for only a short visit. He is
expected to return to Mexico City to
continue the negotiations.
Preparations at the capitol hurried-
made for a Joint session of the
house and senate were called off.
President Wilson's message, a
of about words, was lock-

It is generally understood that the
message is very kind toned toward
Mexico, the United States
government's position, expresses gen-
friendship for the Mexican
and the reasons for In-
upon elections and the
of Huerta.
The expression of the American pol-
icy follows a Ions and unusual effort

However, according to the pres-

that little sticks out Into
Canada from Minnesota and which
constitutes the northernmost point of
the United States Is very interesting.
Under the treaty of 1783 boundary be-
tween the United States and British
possessions was fixed. A certain point
on the Lake of tho Woods was mu-
agreed to as one starting point,
this being considered headwaters
of St river and Great
Lakes system. At that time It was not
known whether this point was north
or south the forty-ninth parallel,
but It known to be close to it. The
understanding was that from that
point the boundary should go north or
south to the forty-ninth parallel, as the
case might be. Later and more
rate surveys showed that point was
about miles north of the forty-ninth
parallel, and so at this place the
boundary makes a Jog above that line.

Just the same as wheat Is the

There are two kinds of labor, the one

sage from John Lind, personal

unanimous approval. The future
course of this government will be one
of non-interference, in the hope that
the effect of its present efforts and the
pressure of foreign governments will
constitute a moral suasion that
will bring about the peace in
Mexico.
The makes It plain that
will be no lifting of the embargo
on arms, that no faction or govern-
in Mexico will allowed to
receive munitions of war from the
United States. If necessary, the
dent proposes to increase the

policy.
The president cites in his message-
us a precedent for the policy he pro-
poses to pursue, tho action of
dent Hayes in withholding recognition
from for more than a year after
latter had gained control of the
Mexican governorship. Paring to-
night's conference the president read
to tho committee not only tho full
text of his own message but tho notes
exchanged between John Lind and
Huerta. Ono of the
said afterward that the Huerta note,
written by Foreign Minister Gambol,
was one of the finest state papers he
had over seen.

Remarkable Case of Devotion to Home
Shown by Nesting Meadow Lark
In Massachusetts.
An endearing trait in birds Is their
love of home, and the bravery with
which they face danger In protecting
their eggs or baby birds. They seem
to become very tame at such times;
not seldom a person who approaches
them quietly may, after a few gentle
attempts, stroke a mother bird as she
broods. But It Is really courage, and
not enjoyment of the attention, that
she displays.
An interesting example of the strong
attachment of a bird to Its home, as
well as Its adaptability to unusual cir-
was given by a meadow
lark that found itself day after day
under gun-fire, and learned not to
fear it.
At tho practice grounds of the
United States marine corps at Wake-
Held, Mass., some low mounds were
raised on the firing line. On the
front side of of mounds a
meadow-lark built Its nest, and had
laid Its eggs when the season's
In target shooting and skirmish
drill began. Tho of the man
on tho mound was directly over
tho nest, and not more than two feet
above it
At first the birds would fly away,
when the firing skirmish line was still
at some distance; but as the practice
continued, they became accustomed to
the noise. would wait until the
men came very near before flying, and
would return Immediately after. As
the time came for the eggs to hatch,
one of the birds would stay on the
nest during the firing, even if a rifle
were held just above her bead. The
marines were very careful not to dis-
the little family. When tho young
came, they were nourished amid the
smoke battle, as It were, and finally
left the nest Com-
