AMERICANS WOUNDED
IN DOUGLAS, ARIZONA.

A copy OF the Douglas. Arizona
Daily Dispatch. published near the
border line of Mexico. tells of the
thrilling experiences Of tho Ameri-
cans in Douglas during the battle
which was fought Thursday Of last
week between the Mexican regulars
and the rebels at Aqua Prieta. The
paper tells Of Americans killed and
manned on this side of the line and
asks how long the United States will
submit to bombardment from border
warfare.
The combatants have been warned
by the U. s. government to be eau
tious in shooting and not endanger
American lives, but this warning ev-
identity Is not needed. American citi.
zens travelling in Mexico are shown
no consideration by either the regu-
lars or the insurgents and it would
seem that this government Is not do
ing its duty by her citizens in not
forcing the Mexicans to carry on
their warfare away from the border
line and safeguarding the lives Of
Americans both in Mexico and Ariz-
ona. The Douglas Dispatch publishes
the following experience Of American
passengers travelling in Mexico:
"W. C. Green. of $50 Greene street.
was on the train coming up from
Nacozari yesterday afternoon when
it was taken charge of by the insur-
rectos at Fronteras. Mr.. Greene stat
ed to representative Of The Dis
patch last evening:
"'Thefe were ten passengers on
the train from Nacozari and six of
them got off the train at Fronteras
when the insurrectos took charge.
and four of them came on to Aqua
Prieta. It was the original intention
Of the insurrectos to stop a mile from
Aqua Prieta and come into town on
foot" said Mr.. Green, "'but they
changed their plans on the way in.
AS soon as the train stopped at Aqua
Prieta the insurrectos commenced
shooting and the bullets from the
federals were whizzing around us
thick and fast. We got back of some
freight cars on the other side of the
depot and finally lay down in small
ditch. There were ten Of US in the
ditch. among them A. R. Dickson.
"'The bullets kept on whizzing
overhead and we thought that we
were pretty we'll out Of danger when
half a dozen federals appeared on
the other side Of Us and commenced
firing on us. We yelled Americana
and Amigo but it did not do any
good. A Mexican on one side Of me
was shot in the abdomen and Dick
son on the other side was shot in
the leg. They made US get up lApd
took us around tho town to the bVN
ring, the insurrectos blazing away
at us meanwhile. and we kept down
as much as possible. and If you
think we were not scared, you are
badly mistaken.
Eight of us were kept in the bull
ring for about an hour until the
town was finally taken and we were
released and came across the line.
"T have had enough. war to last
me for some time,'" said Mr.. Green

WANT A CUSTOM OFFICER.
Citizens of ontonagon Desire Town to
Be Made Port of Entry.


Be Made Port of Entry.
Collector Of Customs c. J. Byrns has
under consideration a request of citi-
zens Of Ontonagon county that on
tonagon be made a port of entry and
that a customs officer be stationed
there permanently. says the Marquette
Mining Journal. Under the present
arrangement IT is necessary that a GUS
toms officer from Houghton go to On
tonagon whenever foreign boat ar
rives or clears. which results in an ex-
pense of about 81, which must be borne
by the vessel owner.
Collector Byrns spent a few days i'm
Ontonagon recently and investigated
the situation, but he bias not yet de-
cided whether he viii recommend that
a port Of entry be established there
1t appears that there is about one bill
lion feet Of standing timber near on
tonagon, which naturally would be
marketed from that port The three
mills In that town are turning out over
30000,000 feet of lumber a year, not
all Of which, however, is shipped by
water. This at present is about the
sum total of lax shippink there, al
though residents claim that the towns
commerce would greatly increase If the
plans OF the government for deepening|
and improving the harbor are carried
out. only boats Of light draft can get
into the harbor now.
While Ontonagon is not an import
ant lake port those who believe that
it should be port of entry point out
that other towns Of less Importance
have been given that distinction. In
to the convenience of having
n customs officer stationed there per-
making the town a port of
entry would help to put the town on

been put up so urgently to Collector

The Houghton high school football
team and rooters returned yesterday

hearted over their defeat by Menom-
inee Saturday afternoon by the Me-
nominee high school football squad.
The score was "a 10 o. six touchdowns
and four goal kicks being registered
before the end of the final quarter.
The Houghton team played their best
in the last quarter. when they seem
ed 10 take a squirt. holding the bail
in neutral territory most Of that period
and punting once TO within tenyards Of
the goal line.
The greatest weakness Of the
Houghton boys was their inability toI
make safe tackles. Menominee Played
an open game, winning on forward
passes and end runs. Bobby Heubel
was the star player. making a sixty
yard run for a touchdown. Cross. the
left halfback for Houghton was the |
only one OF the local team who ap-
peared 10 be able to tackle success
