WASHINGTON, Aug. 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.

Upon these proposals the Huerta government at the last moment asked further time for and upon certain supplementary by Mr. Lind, the nature of which 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.

Dr. H. C. Carter made a most In- address in the court house Tuesday night on the mosquito. H described the varieties and customs of these troublesome insects, and urged tho importance of extermination by destroying or removing their breed- places. Dr. Carter said it is not the dirty mud bole that develops the dangerous type of mosquito, but main- such receptacles as will hold that are thrown carelessly around the premises. The mosquito does not take malaria from and carry it to the person, but he spreads by biting a person already infected and then going and biting a well person, thus carrying disease from one to another. It is important to remove the breeding places of mosquitoes, and equally Important to screen them out of the home. The instruction Dr. Carter is along this line is very helpful.

How did the United States come to get that small corner of land Juts out from the extreme northern boundary of Minnesota History of 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. Uncle Sam thus has a little piece of claimed; and then, addressing the j territory of about miles in coin belongs to you of extent north of the general boundary. Quickly Explained.

Labor Is a commodity to be bought and sold notwithstanding the maudlin criticism of some theorists, writes C. W. Post In Leslie's. Labor Is not the man himself, whom I consider a part of the divine, but labor is his output Just the same as wheat Is the of the farmer, and it is a subject for purchase and sale, and upon Its depends Its demand and Its value. There are two kinds of labor, the one manual and the other mental. When the skilled workman possesses a train- ed mind which directs his hands, he rises In value, and when he reaches a piano where his mind is so well train- ed that he in turn becomes a creator and must devise and direct he then requires other bands to carry out his Idea. Then he again In the plane of value to humanity, and his compensation must keep Which Ho Rose to Remark.

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.
