COLORADO MILITIA GOING TO FIGHT STRIKERS COLORADO MINE GUARD AT BAY Some of the first detachment of Jackies who landed at Vera Cruz found a natural breastwork in the shape of a huge boiler. From behind this shelter the boys were busily engaged in picking off the Mexican "snipers" perched on rooftops and hidden behind roof chimneys taking pot shots at the men of our navy as they landed.

Hollanders Reclaiming Land. Hollanders boast that "God made the world, but the Dutch made Hol­ land." Land reclamation, a task that has been prosecuted steadily for cen­ turies with Buch Indefatigable energy, is still going on as actively as ever fb| Holland. From twenty thousand to twenty-five thousand acres of land are reclaimed every year. It is said, how­ ever, that more than two hundred and fifty thousand acres of the best soil is still under water, not including the great area under the Zuyder zee, the reclamation of which is a perennial topic of discussion. This photograph shows one of the mine guards in the Colorado strike sone firing at the strikers from behind the debris of a burned mine camp. Jjtany of these guards were killed in the battles.

He said once: "You can't kill time without Injuring eternity," and the truth of the epigram is as great as its wit.

Nicolas de Agriamonte, another highwayman of the deep, pillaged the town some years after the visit of Lorencillo. Due to the hatred of the Spaniards, Vera Cruz once was ground to pow­ der. At the close of Mexico's war for independence, in 1821, the Spaniards still held the' fort of San Juan de Ulua in the harbor.
