TO PATROL BORDER
SOLDIERS BEING HURRIED TO
MEXICAN BORDER, FULLY
EQUIPPED FOR WAR.
Mystery Envelops Rushing Of United
States Regulars From Posts In East
and West TO Mexican Line With
Machine Guns.

Salt Lake City.-Coincldent with
the peremptory order for the sending
Of the entire Fifteenth infantry from
Fort Douglas to Fort Sam Houston,
San Antonio, Tex, near the Mexican
border. the wires Monday night carried
the news that similar orders had been
issued TO the Thirtieth infantry, sta
toned at the Preside, San Francisco,
and the Eighth infantry, stationed at
Monterey, comprising twenty-five COM
panies with four platoons of machine
guns. had been ordered to San Diego,
Ell route 10 the Mexican border.
Then dispatch from Prescott, Ariz.,
told OF the ordering to Fort Sam Hous
ton without delay Of the garrison at
Fort Whipple, consisting Of two com
panies OF infantry. hospital corps
and a machine gun platoon. An hour
later came a message from Atlanta,
Ca, that the Seventh infantry at Fort
Mcpherson and the Eleventh cavalry
at Fort Oglethorpe had been ordered
TO proceed at once TO San Antonio for
service along the border. This order
also called for the mobilization Of a
provisional regiment OF twelve COM
panies OF coast artillery to be recruited
from various stations and to be sent
as soon as possible to Galveston.
Much mystery surrounds dis sud
den and entirely unheralded action on
the part of the war department, but 1t
is clear that at least 5000 fully
equipped troops, comprising cavalry,
infantry and artillery, accoutered as
II for actual war, are to be strung
along the Mexican border from the
gulf to the Pacific coast.

How One Young Woman Found Profit
in This Homely Occupation.

One young woman has managed 10 work
and play TO some advantage this summer
She persuaded the manager OF a summer
hotel that ner business would not interfere
with the work Of any Of his employees
once convinced OF this, he allowed her
business card to be placed in the hotel bed

tage near the hotel and persuaded the
owners Of the cottage TO board her at a
modest rate. Thus established. she waited
for the results she expected from her cards
which announced merely that she would
mend lingerie gowns, blouses, etc, and
would also clean gloves and white shoes, at
reasonable rates.
The guests who required her services left
their cards in the hotel Office. Every morn
ing the pretty, whitehead girl applied TO
the clerk for them. Before long every
morning saw her depart from the Office
with an arrnful ot mending, especially arm
fuls Of gloves
Later she managed 10 afford boy who
brought to her room the collection Of white
shoes whose owners needed her services on
their behalf. They were Of every kind

sneakers"
The landlord has reason to be glad he
permitted her cards 70 be placed in his
guest rooms, for his guests have found her
a great addition TO their comfort.
