Judge Robert AIdrich has very def
mite Ideas Of the duties and respon-
sibilities of his position and he lives
up to those ideas to the exact letter.
The roads have been suffering con-
siderably on account of the rains of
the past few weeks; but they are
nothing like as bad as they would have
been, except for the splendid care they
have been getting Of late.
That is a splendid explanation that
Judge Aldrich gave the grand jury of
its power and responsibility. and the
present grand jury being considerably
above the average, 1t will no doubt,
live up to the standard thus laid down
for it.
While Of course, there may be wit
nesses and jurors in attendance on
court, who do not mind, there are
many here who are impatient to get
away, q circumstance quite natural
and pardonable In view of the good
weather following the long wet spell.
It might be worth while if somebody
would get out booklet containing a
map of York county roads, showing
the different points of interest and how
to get there, for the use of tourists
from other parts Of the state and from
the north. Automobile tourists are
going to he more common in this sec
ton this year than ever before, and
people will do we'll not only to recog-
niZe them as a new element in the or
dinary routine; but a very important
element.

WITHIN THE TOWN.

The completion of the proposed
new Associate Reformed church will
help the looks Of the old town wonder
fully.
The spring fashions were abund-
antly in evidence last Sunday. They
included the lost word in millinery, and
plenty of skirts that more or less ap-
preached the hobble.
TO win nine out of twelve events
in a school contest open to the county,
is no insignificant achievement. Hur-
rah for the Yorkville graded school,
its superintendent and its pupils.
The Yorkville school district elec-
ton held at the court house last Sat-
urday afternoon on the question Of a
levy for school purposes, resulted IL to
in favor Of the tax. Only thirteen
votes were cast.
- Easter dawned bright and beauti-
full Sunday morning and held its own
splendidly during the day, regardless
of the variable character Of April
weather. There were special Easter
services in the church Of the Good
Shepherd, both morning and afternoon,
that In the afternoon being for the
children. Rev. j. L. Oates Of the As
sociate Reformed church preached on
the Resurrection; but there was Moth
ing in the service in the nature of an
Easter celebration.
There was another meeting Of the
board of directors Of the York County
Live Stock association in the office of
the First National bank last night, to
further consider details in connection
with the cow show to be held in York
VILE on Wednesday and Thursday,
May 10 and IL. The consensus Of the
reports was to the effect that the in
terests of the show were coming along
nicely, and there was information to
the effect that COW owners generally
are entering beautifully into the spirit
and purpose of the enterprise and that
there will be full corporation.
Mr.. Grover Walker, freight clerk

Saturday night by a negro named Ed

negro went into the yard of Section
Master Harris, with whom Mr. Walker
boards, at about IL o'clock and made a
noise that brought both Mr.. Walker
and Mr. Harris to the door. AS soon
as Mr.. Walker appeared, White at
tackled and stabbed him. The prob
able effect of the wound, which is an
ugly one is uncertain. When arrested
later at Glover, White had a pistol on
his person. and Magistrate Quinn will
handle him for that first and later bind
him over to the court Of general ses-

der Generals Orozco and Villa had
been instructed by Francisco Madero
to head off the Casas Grandes contin-
gent and if possible capture and re-
lease the prisoners. The fight occur
red on a hacienda as the prisoners,
shackled together by ropes, and the
women and children refugees, weary
from the long tramp were scattered in
a long, broken line. The federals i'm
mediately responded with heavy firing
and placed the prisoners and non-com-
batants under protection. The fight
ing continued for several hours and
resulted in the sending north from
here of Gen. Rabago with 500 REIN
forcements. The extent of the fight
became known when riderless horses
arrived here with evidences of having
left the front in stampede. So far as
is known, none of the prisoners among
whom are believed to be many Ameri-
cans, was wounded, and none escaped,
although these statements are based
on unofficial reports.

is that the revolutionists and MeXi-
cans both have since been trying to do
their firing from a direction that would
take care of their bullets on American
soil. The capture of Aqua Prieta and
Jaurez by the revolutionists may, 1t is
commonly believed, compel the United
States government to recognize the
as belligerents, or one
side or the other may easily do some
thing that will make it necessary for
the United States troops to invade
Mexico under conditions that will
make the situation still more serious.
