MORE TROOPS FOR FRONT
Mexican Government Rushes
Army to Chihuahua.
TO TAKE REBELS IN PASS
Hope to Crush Insurgents Be-
tween Forces of Navarro
and Guzman.

Mexico City. Dec. '20.-The 10th Battalion
of Infantry, battery of light artillery,
with one rapfd-firing gun, left here to-day
| for the zone of rebel activity in Chihuahua
Another train. carrying two regiments OF
| infantry, is said to have left Guadalajara
| last night for the same destination.
The force from this city is in command
of General Sanchez Rivera and Colonel Ra-
fael Lis. The train went out in two sec
tions, one of thirteen coaches and two bag
gage cars, carrying the officers and men,
the other consisting of fourteen cars load
ed with artillery, mules and horses of Of
ficers. The 10th Battalion contains 603 en-
listed men and % officers. The battery is
classified as light mountain artillery. and
has six guns. These troops were said TO
be intended to reinforce Colonel Guzman
at Pedernales.
According to official information obtain
able here the government forces are pre-
pairing to deliver crushing blow to the
revolutionists. The situation, according to
officials, is a follows
On one side of the valley of Nal Paso
Dad Pass is the force Of General Navarro
numbering one thousand men. Colonel
Guzman is on the other side with force
of $40 troops He has not tried to force his
way around the head Of the canyon to join
the troops now under command of General
Navarro, but instead communicated the
situation to headquarters in Chihuahua, and
received orders to wait for reinforcements.
Troops are being hurried forward to raise
the force of Colonel Guzman to one thou
sand men, when the attack will be made
from the two sides, with the purpose of
forcing the rebels to surrender or of wtp-
ing them out of existence.
In high official circles it is believed that
the rebels are now tropped, and that
they cannot possibly escape. The destruc-
ton of this force, 1t is declared, will mean
that there will remain no rebels in the
field, with the exception Of q few maraud
ing bands of outlaws.
Francisco I. Madero, the head of the in
surretcionary movement, is again reported
to be in Mexican territory, according to a
story which appeared in "El Meraldo Mex
icano'' to-day. The report is based upon a
letter received from Chihuahua by respon-
sible persons in this city. Madero is said
to have slipped across the border recently
and to be now in Ojinaga at the head of
the rebels who were formerly under the
command of Abraham Gonzales.

SUNDAYS BATTLE SEVERE
Federals Lost 81 Killed, 42
Wounded and 10 Missing.

Chihuahua, Mexico, Dec. 20-Forty-two
wounded government soldiers were brought
in to-day, thus confirming reports that the
troop train which left here Saturday was
shot to pieces in the mountain trap known
as Malpaso, a few miles east of Pedernales
and about 120 miles west of here.
The official report states that the federaIs
lost twenty-one killed and ten missing and
forty-two wounded. The latter includes
Colonel Guzman, who was in command of
the expedition. The rebels loss is not
known.
The train left here Saturday, travelling
in two sections, carrying three field pieces
on coal car and five hundred soldiers.
Pancho Villa. the bandit, who, while
operating independently, still regards the
government as his enemy, fired on the sec
ond section as it was passing through An
DANA Canyon. but did no damage.
The mountains of Malpaso, however.
swarmed with revolutionists. They halted
the first and second sections. Colonel Guz-
man disembarked his troops, and for five
hours defended himself from the desperate
charge. He was in a trap, however. His
enemy was on the heights, sheltered by
boulders and other protection north to the
mountains. and poured in deadly fire.
He was unable to use his big guns effec-
Notwithstanding his precarous condition
and the numbers of the insurgents, he held
his ground for five hours. He shot
through the leg. while the third officer in
command was wounded in the stomach.
Although General Navarro was at Peder-
males or near there, he was unable to lend
assistance.
Uneonfirmed reports state that he had his
hands full with the rebels he has been
fighting off and on since Thursday
Worn out with the one-sided battle
Colonel Guzman loaded his dead and
wounded, together with the remainder of
his force on to the troop train and ran
back to RuStllOs.
Here the uninjured disembarked. buried
their dead and prepared to seek junction
with Navarro by some route other than the
railroad.
A freight train sent out from here Sun
day to load cattle at Bustllos was coun-
termanded and the wounded transferred
to it, The train arrived early to-day, and
the injured were taken 10 the Hospital Ell
CorrOSpOnSal.

AT SEA EVEN AFTER AUTOPSY
Microscope May Not Help in
Giants Strange Case.

Even though examination has been
made through an autopsy, the physicians
have not yet fully decided what strange
disease Il was that caused the death of
Carleton s. Carpenter, the White Plains
giant.
Mr.. Carpenter. who was thirty-one years
old and 6 feet inches in height was
stricken about fifteen months ago with
what seemed TO be a slow fever Four
months ago he was taken to St I.uke's
Hospital. but though some of the most
eminent diagnosticians in the country in
Guiding DR.. Theodore G. Janeway, DR.. Sam
uel Waldron Lambert and Dr. Austin w.
Hollis, studied the case intently they were
unable to find what day hy day was sap
ping the vitality of his great frame The
autopsy showed malignant growths on the
liver and in the Emphatic glands OF the
lungs While these growths were thought
to resemble tunor. and were hard like
a cancer sarcon1a. it will take microscop
ical examination to throw more light on
the strange case
One of the physicians I'm the case said
yesterday that the diagnosticians had not
included these growths in their theories. as
the syn1ptnls in no way warranted such
a conjecture.
THE symptoms were distinctly those of
fever" he said. 1T might be that in some
peculiar way these growths acted on GER
tain nerve centres allied TO the tempera-
ture. We don't even know yet what kind
OF growths they are and it is possible that
even the microscope Will leave us in the
dark Malignant growths are not common
ly supposed to be of germ origin. They
are thing for which bacteria are not
blamed. This makes the case all the more
remarka bic. for even if we determine what
kind of growths they are we may still not
be able to find out the cause.

NEW GOWNS FOR OLD.

The reversion to slightly higher waist
line has prolonged the usefulness OF many
a princess dress that would otherwise have
been discarded, for when one of these
gowns is cut down into a skirt reaching to
the accepted height, with some OF the
wide braids as a front panel, very smart
costume Is the result, with only the ex-
pense of the braid and the time it takes the
tailor to DO the work-and only tailor can
produce satisfactory results.
Braid especially a wide braid. though 1T
seems simple to sew neatly, cannot he
spnlied with even fair degree of success
by an amateur. The placquet, too. is a
tailor's Job. If that is TO look right AS
we'll made princess gowns are always sep
arate from the lining. this can be kept in
tact to build the inevitable chiffon waist
on and so will any extra buikiness at the
waist line be avoided. The chiffon should
end under a fiat ribbon binding al a point
inst above the waist, and still at safe
distance under the skirt top. When wide
braid is used at the hem it should be put on
Down TO the very edge. This is quite de-
n.rture from the mode of any previous
wear. and gives a very stylish finish and

THE PURPLE FIGS FLAVOR
It Is Unlike Anything Else in the
Realm of Edibles.

The ripe purple figs that are now found
in market. though they are somewhat TASTE
less when raw, have a most delizhtfui
flavor when cooked in thin syrrp Served
with a plain vanilla ice cream, this preserve
Is delicious. and its rich purple color rest
ing against the snowy cream also makes
happy combination. The dessert may be
served, il preferred. in the form of sun
dae. Partly fill sherhee glasses with the
ice cream. and then put little of the pre-
serve on top toward one side. and toward
the other rosstte OF whipped cream This
sundae may be prepared at the table by
the hostess herself.
To prepare the preserve select frui. Of
fine quality, and either wash IL carefully
or peel 1t with thin-bladed knife. These
figs. with their much travelling. undergo
considerable handling and the smallest par
ticle of dust clinging to the skin will spoil
the delicate flavor Weigh the fruit and
add an equal quantity OF sugar. After
weighing the sugar, measure IT, and FOR
every cupful add a cupful of water Put
the water and sugar into a spOtles. enan1-
elled pan on the stove Then when the
sugar has melted add the figs. either cut
In halves pricked. so that they will cook
entirely through and the juice will flow out
and color the syrup. Cook until the fruit IS
thoroughly tender. 1t may be sealed while
hot in sterilized glass If intended for future
use.
AS the preserve is rather sweet. some
cooks may prefer to add little grated
orange or lemon rind- With a delicate
flavor of orange it is excellent with Ice
cream 1t is, however, more Individual
without any accompaniment Of this kind. as
this fruit when cooked has a flavor that Is
entirely different from that of any other

Raw fresh figs, when served IN the frult
