most horrible of alt diseases began to
attack the returning victors. They had
been cutting down food, because per
haps they had taken inadequate sup

selves were dragging the loaded sledges.
Captain Evans of the Terra Nova was
stricken with icurvy a few days after
his return. This shows that the germs
of the disease . were present- Scurvy,
inconceivable cold and low provisions
then began their deadly work. One of
the men. finally fell exhausted., There

At last the truth must have reached

went on. All now, perhaps, were con

were continuously froxeh. Their suf

conservative when I say it must have
been the 'most .horrible tragedy that
ever occurred In a region where trage
dies are almost commonplace.
Then one day .when It seemed help
must come, a great blizzard set In the
most terrible bllztard Scott ever en
countered. It was too much for the
tempest-tossed, disease-eaten, freezing,
starving men. So they pitched their lit

to die.
And there they found them huddled
together, frozen and starved and sick

more triumphant than most of our lives.

The Madero administration was dealt
another body blow today when Oeneral
Angeles, on whom President Madero had
depended for support, led his command
to the arsenal, where Dlas is fortified

The Mexican president's hurried

Madero, it developed today, has but
1500 troops still loyal to his cause,

Madero are confident of success, but the
rebel commander Is admitted to have
