El Paso, Texas. The killing at Juarez of William S. Benton, wealthy Scot, by order of Pancho Villa, rebel leader, has stirred the country to fever heat and the border rings with the talk of war. ~San Francisco, Cal. The largest oil tank steamer under the American flag being launched.~Kanea, Crete. King Constantine of Greece, visits the Isle of Crete and participates in the jubilation over the annexation to Greece of the island, long under the Turkish flag. ~Oakland, Cal. Many thousands of tons of rock are unleashed by dynamite from the hills to fill in the key route over the bay to the exposition grounds. Here is shown the method of dynamiting the rock.~Berlin, Germany. Ice yachting, skating, sailing - in these, Berlin finds outdoor amusement during the cold days of this unusually severe winter.~San Francisco, Cal. Up from the ground are rising the magnificent buildings of the world's playground at the Panama-Pacific Exposition. Here is shown the Horticultural Building, nearing completion.~New York, N.Y. Woman's emancipation from her bonds. A suffragist pantomime is symbolized by Florence Fleming Noyes before a notable gathering of suffragist leaders at the Biltmore, New York's newest big hotel.~Berlin, Germany. Celebrating the Kaiser's 55th birthday.~St. Louis, Mo. If boys want to fight, why shouldn't they? The police and school authorities here let youngsters satisfy that lust for battle and fight it out with snowballs. ~Palm Beach, Fla. Ice and snow have no place here, while the rest of the country shivers, fortunate children of riches bask in sunshine, take sea baths and while away bright hours on the sand.
