TORREON, Mexico. November 29.-As
Inauguration day, December 1, draws
near, the authorities here appear to show
increased vigilance, due to no actual
menace on the part of the revolutionlsts,
but rather to vague rumors which can
not be traced to any authentic source.
Reports continue to filter in Of ranchers
robbed of food and horses, and it is
known that there are still several scat
tered bands of rebels lurking in the
surrounding country. The authorities,
however, have no fear for the result OF
any possible attack, and declare they are
we'll prepared to meet any emergency in
auguration day or at any other time.
Details Of Hold-Up.
Americans arriving from points in the
state of chihuahua gave some new de-
tails of the hold-up Of passenger train

revolutionists a week ago. when a car
was ditched and three Mexican women
were killed
/ The Americans said 100 revolutionists
wrecked the train in the belief that It
carried soldiers. The passengers were
held prisoners by the revolutionists for
twenty -four hours. but were treated well.
On a promise from the railroad officers
not to send a train of soldiers the pas
sengers were released and taken back to
Chihuahua in q special train.

SHALL DISTRICT ASSUME
CONTROL OF MILK PLANT?
Future of Stratus Laboratory Matter
for Commissioners to
Decide.

Whether or not the Commissioners
will ask Congress to take over the
Straus milk laboratory at 1873 G
street northwest. and allow the District
to operate a municipal distributing
plant where poor mothers can obtain
pasteurized milk at cost or nearly cost
will depend in a large measure on what
sort of arguments are advanced at the
hearing set for tomorrow morning at
10 o'clock in the board room of the
District building.
1t is almost assured that Mr.. Straus
will give up the operation Of his plant
here January I, and there is said
to be q very substantial sentiment
abroad in favor Of the District operat-
ing it as municipal function. just as
the school Fairgrounds, hospitals and
other charitable institutions are run.
other Views Expressed.
On the other hand there are several
students OF sociological conditions and
municipal planning who believe that
there should be no center for the dis
tribution Of milk to poor parents, but
that the authorities should make
greater and more efficient efforts to-
ward cleansing the entire milk supply
Of the city. and giving tickets to poor
mothers. redeemable in quarts OF milk
at almost any dairy
the cost Of maintaining the Stratus
plant is now about $4,000 a year.
Whether or not Congress will be asked
to appropriate that amount is the ques-
ton to be answered by the Commission
erS.

since her sensational marriage to
ENewland l. Lamar, 80 years odd,
ION July IS. 1909. has entered suit
/ for divorce, alleging that her we'd
ding was brought about through du-
piirity on Lamar's part; that he en-
ticed her away from her parents and
married her when she was az an age
too tender TO know her own mind
and inclination.

and, finding Rev. E. R. OVERLY,
drove him to the appointed SPOT.
Attired IN long dress to hiGa her
youth fro@ the minister, the girl
emerged from her fathers house on
the Horn Lake road. 1t was after
dusk, and the license was read by
match light. Lamar, it is alleged.
had expisjned that the girl looked
young, but was older than sac APP
peared. Suspecting little of the
girls real age. the minister claims,
he performed the ceremony and de-
parted.

Army's New Gun.

The army has just adopted a new
| type of machine gun that has some
remarkable points of advantage over
the existing guns. The new weapon
is so small that it can be carried by a
man or two with full equipment of
stand and ammunition.
Moreover. it has the important
advantage that it can be fired from
the shoulder, and consequently is
much less subject to attack and cap
ture by the enemy.
The ammunition is carried on
steel strips, and the new gun is said
to be free from the danger of chok-
ing, while the barrels are carried in
duplicate and can be almost instant
ly changed when they become heated
from rapid firing.

Danger in Pop.

The 2-eent ice cream cone is on

Physicians and druggists, puzzled
by the maladies of numerous chill

this, dubious drink on themselves,
they have turned suspicion into GER
tainty. 1t is now discovered that a
good deal of the cheap pop on the
market is doctored with lead salts to
stimulate the appetite. A physician
who drank dozen bottles of this
suspicious refreshment became se,
