Revolt of Huerta's Troops Pre
dicted Soon in Capital
Vera Cruz, June 30. -British
subjects are fleeing from Mexico
City, said army officers. Cabinet
members in the capital no longer
pretend to obey Huerta and that
he, knowing the end is near, has
resumed drinking and had sent
his son and daughter to Puerto,
Mexico, preparatory to flight him
self. Vera Cruz, June 30. A gen
eral revolt of Huerta's troops in
Mexico City, the president's
downfall and flight followed by
anarchy in the capital are pre
dicted by refugees arriving from
the interior. From all sides they
said reports ae reaching Mexico
City of desertions by federal
soldiers to the constitutional lines.
Publication of these stories is for
bidden but they are circulated
orally and everyone knew the sit
uation is desperate, the refugees
stated.
According to news reaching the
capital it is said the federals' de
feat at Zacatecas was due to the
mutiny of 5000 of the garrison
who refused to face the rebels.
One version was that they even
turned on and fought their own
fellow soldiers.

A SLIDE ON A ROOF
Terrifying Experience on an Ice
Coated Mansard.
FIGHTING DEATH IN MIDAIR
Pf. iloua Plight of Two Workera, and
an Exhibition of Coolneaa, Preatnca
! of Mind and Heroio Patience How
the Difficult Reacue Waa Effected.
j, Murine (hi- fall uml winter of 1870
j A. T. Stewart, who luul txxiidit the
j (.ii'ii ml I'nlou hotel at Sai'iiloca, largely
j !-bullt that srent hostelry of 2,000
i rooms. The luilMing has a mansard
root', and ut the peak It Is nlnetj'-eltjlit
feet from the sidewalk.
One cold winter uiorniu);, when the
work was virtually completed, two
i men. Harvey, the head rooter, and a
! helper ntiil Deunlson went up ou
the roof to tlnlli the tliishini; round
the base of the tower. There had been
a slight mist that morning, uml it hud
frozen upon the roof, but the two
men had on India rubber overshoes to
prevent them from slipping on the
slates
Suddenly, however, Harvey's feet be
pnu to slip. He went very slowly ut
tirst. for the upper roof of a mansard
Is not steep. He tried to stop himself,
but there was nothing to which he
could cling. He turned his head In
Deunlson' direction to see If he could
not give some assistance, but Deunl
son. too. was sliding slowly dowu the
roof.
Harvey's presence of mind did not
leave him. "Lie down flat!" he called.
So both men carefully laid themselves
nt full length on the Icy roof In order
that the Increased friction might re
tard. ai;d perhaps stop, their descent.
For nn Instant It cheeked the move
ment. Then the men begun again
slowly to slip nearer the tingle of the
roof and the steep pitch below.
It seemed like hours, although it was
only n few moments, when Harvey felt
his heels catch on a slight projection.
A blind putter had been built into the
lower edge of the upper part of the
rool to carry oft" the large amount of
water that would fall upon such an ex
panse ol roof. The upper gutter pro
jected above the slate roof only about
half nn hu ll, but it was against this
that Harvey's heels had caught.
There he hung on the very brink of
the abyss safe for an instant. lie
dared not move a muscle, however, or
even turn his head to see If Denulsou
were still on the roof. He did nut cry
out for help, for he ftyired that the
mere effort of tilling his luugs and
shouting might dislodge him. No one
could He the men ou the flat of the
roof from the street below. The only
hope lay in the carpenters who were
at work inside the building. Hut how
should they know what was happening
up there ou the roof?
Suddenly Harvey beard u voice, low.
but distinct, come from the tower
above him. "Hold on." It said, "und
I'll help you:" Then after a long time
Harvey heard the sound of several
voices. Whoever had found him hud
got help.
The Hist voice spoke iignin: "Hold
on! We will lower this rope to you!"
Presently something rubbed on the
slate above Harvey's head. It was
the rope, which they were slowly
working down toward him.
"Cuu you get hold of It?" asked the
voice.
"1 don't dare move much," Harvey
replied. "Can't you get it down near
my hand?"
Tbey had to give It a flip to get It by
his shoulder. Theu It traversed the
length of his arm and finally touched
bis bund.
Harvey raised his arm very careful
ly and took hold of the rope, it was
an inch cable that bud been used in
raising the slate from the ground to
the roof.
"Can you turn over very carefully
end climb up?" asked the voice.
Cautiously Harvey worked his band
along on the rope it was his right
hand until he finally drew It taut.
Then he carefully raised his left hand
and. reaching across, grasped the rope
with that tin nd too.
Then when the worst of the matter
was over, he began to shake like a
leaf. He lay there, flat on his back,
clinging desperately to the rope and
dreading inexpressibly the next step.
How was he to turn over on that slip
pery roof when he needed both bands
to cling to the rope?
At last he spoke hoarsely:
"Can you pull me up?"
They consulted together.
"1 don't dare to turn over," ho
added.
There was a sharp tug on the rope.
Harvey let them draw his arms up to
their extreme length, still afraid to
trust his weight to his rescuers. Then
he felt his heels lose their grip on the
gutter, and he began slowly to move
upward.
It was not till he had nearly reach
ed the tower that he dared turn his
head In Dennison's direction to see If

MOLECULAR ATTRACTION.
That la What Permita a Needle to
Float Upon Water.
A Bteel needle laid carefully on a
etlll water surface will float, u I though
the weight of steel or Iron Is jjreuter
than that of on equal volume of water.
Molecules of liquids cohere, but with
a force far less than In solids or viscid
substances. Rut the thin needle of
rretal gently placed horizontally on
water has not quite weight enough to
break the surface tenslon-that Is,
molecular attraction of the water be
low it.
Attraction of molecules Is a force
that exerts great lnlluence In nature.
Thus this force draws particles of wa
ter In fogs Into drops of water which
ore heavy enough to fall as rain. Dew
if" a formation of minute particles of
water into drops at rest on surfaces.
The molecular attraction of the
heavy liquid-mercury Is Intense, else
this heavy liquid could not be drawn
by it Into spheres or drops. Melted
lend forms Into minute globes when let
full In high shot towers.
There Is a great difference in the In
tensity of molecular attraction, as may
bo observed In alcohol, gasoline, sul
phuric ether and similar limpid liquids
and oil, sirup, glycerin and other vis
cous liquids.
Soup bubbles could not be blown In
alcohol or benzine, but they form read
ily In water. And the molecules In the
thin films really attract with some
force, else the bubbles would burst be
fore they become so large. Tbe most
elaborate mathematics are required to
handle molecular forces, fit only for
