PROSPECTS OF FURTHER TROU. >BLE IN CHIHUAHUA AND
 DURANGO.
OIAZ DOES NOT SATISFY
posed to Present Governme eit- RevoIutionlsts Not Yet
 Conquered.

El Paso, Tex, Nov. 29.-According to two newspaper men who have re, turned here there is every prospect of further trouble in the affected dis, tricts of Chihuahua and Durango. They declare that 90 per cent of the natives in that part of Mexico are against the Diaz government and that those not openly supporting the revo- lutionists are passive. They assert, also, that the revolutionist army is not made up of peons and bandits, as has been reported. but consists of na- tive railroad employees. farmers, me chanics and others. The insurrectors appear to have plenty of arms and ammunition and seem to have plenty of money behind them.
 Insurrection Not Suppressed
 Both agree that the insurrectos have not been conquered, but only driven into the mountains. Desultory fighting is expected to continue and there have been several small fights within the last few days.
 Confirmation has been received of a report that evolutionsts tore up railroad tracks west of Parral and prevented repairs being made Con- firmation was also obtained of the re- port of battle at Manaquipa, near the Momon colonies
 Further news is that there was fighting at Fl Valle, between Mana Quipa and the Mormon settlements, and the colonies are said to be in great fear of an attack.
 The American victims of the risings at Parral Monday are: Edward Law ton, killed, and J. K. Story of Hart ford, Conn. and A. E. Wallender, wounded. Lawton's throat was cut by bullet and Story was shot in the abdomen and right hand.
 Federal Troops Ambushed.
 Mexico City, Nov. 29.-A battle was fought twelve miles from Fresno, in the state of Chihuahua, between 600 government troops, including four companies of the Second battalion and two troops of the Thirteenth cavalry under General Navarro. and 400 revo- lutionists.
 The rear guard of the federal troops was ambushed at 9:30 a. m. and the fight lasted until 2 p. m., the rebels being repulsed with loss of 15 killed and many wounded.

Il was the 18th OF February. The
sun had come out and made things
look very bright aud happy, and In the
southern country Its light was 80
warm aud pleasant that three little
girls haa come out among the grass
aud trees to- write their valentines.
These girls were Seth Granbery's
.three little states. as they were called.
The two Cranberry brothers. Seth
and Josiah. were farmers, and their
large farms joined. The brothers were
twins.
They were married on the same day.
There had been u sort of agreement
between them that whenever baby

So II came about that when some
years had gone BY there were six little
states. three III each family. The boys
did not count III this uuiOn, for It
would not do to call boy Texas or
Mississippi.
Then came the time when Seth and
Josiah ceased to be twins IN spirit. for
they mad serious quarrel about the
planting Of a division stake and the
ownership of three or four feet OF
land. Seth, the more self willed OF the
two, had planted the stake where be
pleased, and Joe had submitted. but
from that day the brothers mad not
spoken to each other. and the ak little
states, who loved each other, had been
separated.

knees that occupied one chair and then
on those that occupied the other until

SinCcc, n. J.--While on her way

about and swinging nearer and nearer
to her, suddenly swooped down on
her head and seized the hat.

Two girl friends ran to her assistance.
Miss Minnie Hartdorf reached her
first and she tried to drive off the
bird. but the hawk tapped his wings
wildly several times. striking Miss
Hartsdori in the face and binding
her for the time being.
Miss McPhail was so frightened
that she sank to the ground. BY that
time the hatpins had worked loose and
the hawk flew away with the head
gear in it's claws. When over the
