BANDITS RAvAGE BORDER.
U. s. Troops Must Move Cautiously
Else Courts May Act.

WASHINGTON, July I.-Ameri-
can military forces are now in service
for the enforcement of the neutrality
laws along the Mexican border, where
rebels are committing many depreda-
tions. General Meyer. com4- anding
the department of Texas, has report
ed to the war department that direc-
lions already have been given for the
dispatch OF four troops OF cavalry
from posts in his department to Del
Rio. AS to other points he win be
guided by his conferences with the
civil officers.
The employment of American
troops for this purpose, by the way
is almost without precedent in recent
years, and the law officers OF the war
department as well as the attorney
general himself have been obliged to
give close study to the question of the
extent to which they may exercise
the power of preventing persons from
entering the United States across the
Mexican border. Under the law no
passports are required except in the
case of Chinese and Japanese, and
about the only other reasonable
ground for detention of fugitives
seeking to cross the line would be
some presumable violation or the I'M
migration or health inspection laws.
So 1t will be a delicate task for the
army officers who are charged with
the duty of policing this information

These changes are made because
a Redistribution OF the various posts

VICE PRESIDENT
TOPIC AT DENVER
Judge Gray Is the Favorite For
Second Place

AAS SodSt anu prOD2 Oily
the state of Washington was Opposed
to the adoption of such plank as
was presented at Chicago Dy Samuel
Gompers and other officials of the
American Federation of Labor. He
said:
The adoption by our party Of such
plank would be a transparent son
to union labor which would be re-
pugnant to US in all sections of the
country. 1t would be promise that
no lawmaking body would be willing
to fulfil. 1t could not help but in
1ure the democratic ticket at the
polls"
MIR. Heifner believed that the vice
presidency will go to the east, but he
was not ready to say how his delega-
ton will vote.
The coming of Mr.. Hiefner with
his statement of the sentiment on the
Pacific coast against the proposed
anti-injupction plank, and the an
noancement in the east that Martin
w. Littleton of New York will come
here to make fight against the in
sertion of such a plank in the plat
form easily makes this question the
most important under discussion.
New England is said to be opposed
to the plank and New Jersey and
Pennsylvania are also accredited with
pronounced antagonism to such
resolution.
Might Mean Big Fight.
If the New York delegation and the
Pacific coast delegations should take
a determined stand against it the
fight would assume formidable pro-
portions. 1t is believed here that
the opposition Of Sullivan or Illinois
and the Taggart opposition means
that the entire delegations from those
states would oppose Bryan's wish
es. Most of the central and western
and southern states, it is said, will
be lined up to support whatever plat
form Mr.. Bryan's friends present.
The question of tickets continues
to divide the members of the commit
tee on convention arrangements and
the committee of Denver citizens
which is looking after the Denver
end of the convention. As is usually
the case. the local people would like
to receive a greater number of tickets
than the committee feels that it can
spare.
The hospital here win be patterned
after the temporary hospital at the
Chicago coliseum. The contracts for
equipment and supplies and the mat
ter of securing the attendance of
physicians and nurses viii
be disposed of tomorrow.

MORE FORGERTES
BY AVERY MOORE
Orator. Politician, Mining Man,
FOrger Is His Record

Avery G. Moore, the labor leader,
newspaper man, silver-tongued ora
tor. and politician In the republican
party Is wanted at Standpoint, accord
ing to advices received by the police
at Spokane. on the charge OF obtain
ing money under false pretenses, and
according to information given out
by the Exchange National bank OF
this place, is probably wanted at Ia
coma. for the crime Of forgery.
For the past year Moore has been
making this city his home, and dur
ing his residence here was engaged
In the mining business and posed as
mining promoter. He left here IN
the early spring. ostensibly on min
ing business, and Informed his wife
that he had large mining deal pend
ing In California, and that Il might
take him into Mexico before Il was
eonsumated. After his departure
his wife received one letter, and then
the months went by and no letters
or money came, and his family soon
found themselves in destitute cir
cumstanees. The first news that his
wife had OF his being wanted by the
officers Of the law was when a friend
called her over the telephone from
Lewiston and informed her that
Moore had secured 500 by false pre-
lenses from Geo. r. Barker OF Sand
point. She had then for some time
been in want and had been disposlng
OF her household furniture to meet
the Indebtedness that she had incur
red during his absence and prior
thereto for provisions for the family.
AS soon as possible after the news
was conveyed to her in an authentic
manner that Moore was guilty OF the
offense, she disposed or all OF her
household goods--most of them be-
ing applied in payment Of debts con-
tracted in the past. and then on mon
ey received from her parents she re-
turned to her home In Alabama.
Moore had told his wife prior to de-
parting that he had contracted a num-
Der of debts. and that IL was neces-
sary for him to cORsumate a nun
OF mining deals he had on hand in
order to satisfy them, but she had
full confidence in his business inteE-
rity and honesty and the news thar |
he was guilty of securing money
through means that are classified un-
der the law as criminal came as a |
severe blow to her.
As near as can be learned Moore,
while at Standpoint. gambled more or
less. He had, it seems. poor success
in disposing OF mining stock he was
selling and was as a consequence
embarrassed He drew
a draft on one OF the California
banks on his brother, and represent
ed to Barker that II would be honor
I'd and in this manner prevailed up
IN Barker to identify him and lndofse
the draft.
While In Tacoma he evidently
again ran short OF funds and drew

range was due purely to carelessness
and bad judgment.
Neither of my shots lad so far done
me much credit; but at any rate had
learned where the error lay, and this
is going long way toward correcting
it. l kept wishing that could get an
other chance to see if had not prof
tied by my lessons; and before we
reached home my wish was gratified.
We were Looping down grassy valley,
dotted with clumps of brush. the wind
blowing strong in our faces, and dead
ening the noise made by the hoofs on
the grass. AS we passed by piece Of
broken ground yearling black-tail
buck jumped into view and cantered
away. l was off Manitou's back in an
instant. The buck was moving slowly,
and was evidently soon going to stop
and look round, SO I dropped on one
knee with my rifle half raised, and
waited. When about sixty yards off
he halted and turned sideways to me,
Offering beautiful broadside shot. l
aimed at the spot just behind the Shout
der and felt had him. At the report
he went off, but with short, weak
bounds, and l knew he would not go
far; nor did he. but stopped short,
swayed unsteadily about. and went
over on his side, dead, the bullet clean
through his body.

which turned short off and over the
side of the hill thinking the valley.
Instead of running right up on it
foolishly dismounted and began firing;
after the first shot--a INSIST got be-
hind boulder hitherto unseen. and
thence over the crest. The pony
meanwhile had Slipped its hind leg
into the rein; when. after some time.
| got it out and galloped up to the
ridge. the most careful scrutiny OF
which my practised eyes were capa-
BILE failed to discover track on the
dry ground. hard as granite. A day
or two afterward the place where the
carcass lay was made known by the
vultures, gathered together from all
parts to feed upon it.
When fired at from a place of hid
ing, deer which have not been accus-
toned to the report of q gun will often
appear confused and uncertain what to
do. On one occasion. while hunting
in the mountains, saw an old buck
with remarkably large horns. of Curl
GUS and beautiful shape. more SYM
metrical than in most instances where
the normal form is departed from.
The deer was feeding in wide, gently
sloping valley. containing no cover
from behind which to approach him.
We were in no need Of meat, but the
antlers were so fine that ! felt they
justified the death Of their bearer.
After little patient waiting, the buck
walked out of the valley. and over
the ridge on the other side, moving up
wind; l raced after him, and crept up
behind thick growth Of stunted ce-
dars, which had started up from
among some boulders. The deer was
about hundred yards off. down in
the valley Out of breath, and over
confident, fired hastily, overshootfng
him. The wind blew the smoke back
away from the ridge, so that he saw
nothing. while the echo prevented his
placing the sound. He took a couple
Of jumps nearer, when he stood still
and was again overshot. Again he
took few jumps and the third shot
went below him; and the fourth just
behind him. This was too much, and
away he went. In despair I knelt

While the value of beans and peas OF
various kinds as food for man and beast
has been known for many generations, II
IL within the memory of men now living
that the value of these crops as soil reno
vators and fertility restorers has been
definitely proved. Since these facts have
become known the value of such crops
Is being more and more appreciated and
their cultivation as result very greatly
extended.

The average wholesale price OF beans
runs FROM s1.5o to s1.7O per bushel for
hand picked stock. In view OF the
widely published announcement OF the
Van Camp Packing Company that they
nav $40 per bushel, 1t is interesting TO

The huge stone watts in which they are
soaked over night will accommodate a

The water in which they are soaked

A million gallons of tomato sauce are

this well-known and approved brand, Is
rapidly supplanting home baking. The
