ten days scouting trip along the
border east of the Colorado.

whom he met on the desert be-
yond Tinajas Atlas told him that
they had seen dead bodies of
three men who had evidently
died of thirst a short distance
below the line. One of the dead
men appeared to be an American

were believed to be from the
party Of insurrectos who several
had meals at the Colorado control

crossed the Colorado and moved

ert, Lieutenant Roscoe says that
there is plenty at Bakers tanks,
but there is only a little at Ca

This annihllation Of distance will be put
in effect June Is. said c. Stubbs, di-
rector OF traffic of the Hartman lines, In
commenting on the change, "and 1t is the
initial step toward realizing to the travel
ers using the Union-Southern Pacific sys-
tenn, the advantages made possible by the
vast sums expended in improving our road
bed. in installing electric block signal pro-
lection. in double tracking, betterment of
power and equipment and other changes
which have cost many millions.
Time is money and the clipping of four
and a half hours from our schedule is in
the nature of a dividend to the travelling
public, which we believe all travellers espe-
cially business men, will appreciate, since
the increase in speed is made without any
decrease in the comfort OF travel"
