Mexicali, Mexico. = Mexicali, Lower
California, Mexico, the first border
town to be captured by Mexican in
surrectos. is in full possession of the
Mexican rebels. The customs house
was seized. Reinforcements are said
to be focking to the rebel standard
from the surrounding country.
The capture is the first sign of rebel
activity on the western coast Of Mex.
leo. The move was q complete sur
prise. It is said to be part of a
general plan for the seizure Of all
cities in the northwestern section Of
the republic. Mexicali is a small town
on the southern side of the information
al line and directly across the border
from the California city of Calexico. It
is forty-one miles south of Imperial
Junction.
Two men were in command of the
rebel invading party. Leyva, who ap-
peared to be chief, gave his title as
Eel General in Jefe de las Tropas In
surgentes." His aide was Simon Barth-
old, known in Los Angeles and other
coast cities.
Barthold and eight men arrived from
Holtville, CAL, and successfully snug
gled considerable firearms across the
border. They were joined in the night
by the insurgents from Mexicali and
vicinity and at daylight marched to the
adobe Jail where seven insurgent pris.
oners were released.
Only eight of the rebels were mount
ed. Some were astride horses without
saddles or brides and using only halt
ers to guide their steeds. Four white
men were in the group, having the ap.
pearance of typical western ranch
hands. The men were armed with
rifles and appeared to have abundant
ammunition.

ECZEMA GONE, BoILs CURED

"My son was about three weeks old
when noticed breaking-out on his
cheeks, from which a watery sub
stance oozed. A short time after, his
arms, shoulders and breast broke out
also, and in few days became solid
scab. became alarmed, and called
our family physician, who at once pro-
nounced the disease eczema. The lit
tie fellow was under his treatment
for about three months. By the end
OF that time, he seemed no better. I
became discouraged, and as had
read the advertisements of Cuticura
Remedies and testimonials of great
many people who had used them with
wonderful success, dropped the doc
tors treatment, and commenced the
use of Cuticura Soap and Ointment,
and in few days noticed a marked
change. The eruption on his cheeks
was almost healed, and his shoulders,
arms and breast we're decidedly bet
ter. When he was about seven
months old all trace Of the eczema
was gone.
During his teething period, his
head and face were broken out in
boils which I cured with Cuticura
Soap and Ointment. Surely he must
have been a great sufferer. During the
time of teething and from the time
dropped the doctors treatment, used
the Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Oint-
ment, nothing else, and when two
years old he was the picture of health.
His complexion was soft and beauti-
full, and his head a mass of silky curls.
I had been afraid that he would never
be well, and feel that owe a great
deal to the Cuticura Remedies"

JOHNSON STATUTE SITE FIXED.
Memorial to be Placed on Capitol
Ground.

st. Paul. = The Governor John A.
johnson memorial will be located
on the triangular grass plot west
of the approach to the main entrance
of the state capitol and between Wab.
asha street and the Capitol drive. The
sculptor will be Andrew O'Connor of
Paris.
Decision covering both of these
points was reached by the Johnson
Memorial commission. There were
eleven Of the twenty members of the
commission present at the meeting.
Standing above the lawn nearly
twenty feet in height, the memorial
will be both imposing and attractive.
1t will be possible to see the monu-
ment for considerable distance and
it will furnish an interesting object to
people who take the interurban street
car line between st. Paul and Mime.
apolis.
Material to be used in the casting
of the statue was specified as bronze.
The pedestal will consist of Minnesota
granite, which will be taken from the
quarries' near Ortonville, while the
group of four figures surrounding the
base Of the memorial will be carved
from an elegant and expensive kind
of stone to be imported from France.
The amount the sculptor is to re-
ceive for his services was not made
public, but it was said the $4,000 sub
scribed by the people of Minnesota
would be sufficient to cover all of the
costs.

THE PHALANX.
Its Formation In the Military Method.
Of Ancient Greece.

It's Formation In the Military Method,
Of Ancient Greece.
A phalanx in the military affairs OF
Greece was a square battalion or bod.y
OF soldiers formed in ranks and files
compact and deep. with their shields
Joined and pixies crossing each other SO
as to render 1t almost impossible to
break it. At first the phalanx consisted
of 4 900 men. but this number was aft
crward doubled by Philip of Macedon
and the double phalanx is hence often
called the Macedonian phalanx. Polyb-
ius describes it thus:
1T was a square Of pikemen, con
sisting Of 16 in flank and 500 in front.
The soldiers stood so close together
that the pixies Of the fifth rank extend
ed three feet beyond the front. The
rest. whose pixies were not serviceable
owing to their distance from the front.
couched them upon the shoulders of
those who stood before them and. SO
locking them together in file. pressed
forward to support and push on the
former rank. by which means the as
sault was rendered more violent and
Irresistible" The spears Of those be-
hind also stopped the missiles of the
enemy. Each mans pike was twenty
three feet long. The word phalanx is
also used for any combination Of peo-
pie distinguished for solidity and firm.
ness. 4 grand phalanx consisted OF
1884 men.

NOISE OF THUNDER.
Theory ~ to the Cause Of tho crackIs,
Roar and Rumble.

nOdT anu nutuOISs
1t has usually been thought that the
noise Of thunder is caused by the clos
Ing up Of the vacuum created by the
passage OF the lightning. the air rush
ing in from all sides with a clap But
the intensity Of the noise is rather dis
proportionate, and it is now supposed
thunder Is due to the intense heating
of gases. especially the gas Of water
vapor along the line Of electric dis
charge and the consequent conversion
of suspended moisture into steam at
enormous pressure.
In this way the crackle with whic b
a peal Of thunder sometimes begins
might be regarded as the sound Of
steam explosion on a small scale caus-
ed by discharges before the main
fash. The rumble would be the over.
tapping steam explosions. and the final
clap. which sounds loudest. would be
the steam explosion nearest to the
auditor.
In the case Of rumbling thunder the
lightning is passing from cloud to
cloud. When the fash passes from
the earth to the clouds the clap is
loudest at the beginning. Trowbridge
gave substance to these suppositions
by causing electric flashes to pass
from point to point through terminals
clothed in soaked cotton wool. and he
succeeded in magnifying the crack OF
the electric spark to a terrifying ex-
tent.-Exchange.
