ACROSS THE BORDER.
n Mirror of Events TransplTlng ln the
 Neighborlng Republic.


 Chihuahua Enterprise: The bill ,o extend the time for the purchase land distribution by the govern ment of corn and frijoles to the moor at cost was passed unanim- a6usly by the federal congress on line 18th inst. The bill carries no additional appropriation but mere ly extends the time to September SO. this year, in which to expend, Ri needed, the million pesos which were authorized for the purpose in the bill of October 20 last year.
 Mexico Record: The first de- cided effort to build up intimate trade relations between Mexico and the Argentine republic has been made within the last year. The credit for the initiation of this laudable work belongs entirely to Jacinto Sixto Garcia, the charge ld'affaires of the Argentine republic in Mexico. During the brief time that this diplomat has been in charge of the affairs of his country in Mexico he has investigated trade possibilities.
 Mexico Record: Reports of the various rubber companies indicate that the output of rubber is practi cally all sold. It is believed that one large manufacturer of tires has secured about 60 per cent of the years supply says the Chicago Post. Plants of the Continental Rubber Company are running to full capacity in Mexico and the company has very little rubber left for sale for delivery this year. Rubber is being marketed at nearly double the price at which it was sold last year and the quality, it is officially stated, has been very much improved.
 Mexican Herald: The Flag to Flag race which was to have start. led in Denver on the first of May has been indefinitely called off and Twill not be run until later in the 8year, The reason assigned for this IS that the manufacturers are all sold up at the present time on ther cars and do not care for any more advertising for the reason that they cannot fill their orders now on hand. The postponement sot the race will be a disappoint- ment to many who have taken much interest in 1t. No date has been fixed for the event but it will Nprobably be run some time during the summer when the trade season IS slack. The Flag to Flag contest as proposed was to have been from Denver to Mexico city and in the norm of an endurance race. Tn, route proposed was from Denver to San Antonio, from San Antonio to lorreon, following the line O lhe Mexican International railroad 'nence along the Mexican Centra railroad to the this city.

Lanier. He had accused him of quit

guard in garrison. quitting his quar-

himself of money obligation, drink

of a commissioned officer and in the

and Stoner, the sentry of the second
relief, admitted he knew these were
/ the orders, but 'the fellers'' had never
supposed they applied to Sergeant
Fitzroy. who did pretty much as he
pleased. In fact, Fitzroy hitched up
and drove away without so much as a

And the stable orderlies had sworn
that Fitzroy started alone. Therefore
unless Dora Mayhem had circled the
fort and joined him on the bleak east
ward prairie. it was most unlikely she
had gone with him. and up to 1 o'clock
there was none to hint with whom or
how except afoot, she could have

! ton. The sentry stationed at the
northwest face Of the post admitted
having seen "a rig from town" MAX

Field and several troopers, with one or
| two interested citizens, were in quest
Of tidings. There they were joined
by Mayhem himself, who had one
more hope. Dora had a friend a few
years older than herself who was mar
ried to a conductor Of the Union Pa

might be that Dora had gone to her.
They found the house and ham,

in waking Chinese servant, who
