All but one was able to swim IN

The lake was alive with struggling
boys. Many of them had never been

FRONTIER TROOPS
ARE ON THE MARCH
u. S. Soldiers Parallel Move
ments of Rebels.
TO STOP BORDER CROSSING
Line 1900 Miles Long to Be Guarded
by Army Patrol-The End
of War In Mexico Ia
Not Near.

Washington. Sept 19.-The war de-
partment on Tuesday issued orders to
General Steeyer to parallel the move
ments Of the rebel forces along the
frontier in Mexico.
The arrival on the border line of the
two additional regiments recently or
dered there will make this task not
quite impossible. although it will be
still one of great difficulty, demand
ing the daily and nightly movement
Of the whole army in patrol.
General Wood estimates the length
Of line to be guarded at about fifteen
hundred miles, but the rebels appear
sc suddenly and so often at different
places that the task of keeping up
with them has become almost hope
less. This patrol duty has become
particularly important by reason Of
the rebel practice of simply passing
over into the United States II hard
pressed. and II they are not captured
they return to their friends on the
other side.
Beginning today and continuing I'M
til orders to the contrary are given
the frontier troops will be on the
march. If armed bands are taken
they win be disarlned and held sub
iect to the terms of peace.
Il is not known 10 the war depart
ment where General Orozco is. There
have been reports that he is on this
side of the border, where several of
his lieutenants have been captured.
The optimism of Madero that the
war will end when Orozco Is captured
or surrenders on this side of the line
is not shared by the military officials
here. The Madero government. 1t ap-
pears, has not been able to suppress
the disorders, even near the capital
and 1t is feared that later in the sea
son there will be a withdrawal of the
rebels from the frontier for junction
with the rebels of the south under
General Zapata
The manager of the Tigre mines es-
Inmates that the loss so far known has
amounted to about $4,000. but the
mines themselves suffered no NAL
treatment. One Japanese was killed
in Ell Tigre by a bursting shell. The

looted by both Rojas and Salazar.

BEL0lT OFFICIALS CLASH
Movement to Pave Alley on School
Land Results in Injunction to
Restrain Work.

Beloit.-A legal battle was begun
with the council and the school board
opposing parties. West of the high
school grounds is lane and facing it
is the residence of e. Lipman. The
council at meeting voted to have
the lane paved, and Mayor Cunning
ham, who is also a member of the
school board, vetoed the resolution.
His grounds are that the alley is not
intended as a thoroughfare, and that
the school board does not approve of
the improvement and wants to close
the lane entirely.
The school board began TO grade
and fill the alley. Mr.. Lipman Sc
cured an injunction restraining the
board from continuing the work.
This will bring the case into court
and decide whether the lane is I'M
der the control of the school board,
for it is on school land, or whether
the council can declare it a thorough
fare and improve it. Under the city
charter the school board is elected
as an entirely distinct body from the
council, and conflicts of authority
have not been few.

low the total vote at that time, in
the sixty-seven counties.
Douglas and La Crosse counties
have not yet submitted official re-
turns. The returns have not yet been
canvassed by the state board.
The returns explain how the TO-
600 majority of Karel was received.
In the SchmitZ counties the demo-
cratic vote was light. There are
counties which Schmitz carried two
or three to one but in most of them
only a scattering vote was received,
ranging from 200 to 800 votes and
in many cases, less. These were the
rural counties, where the income tax
was favored
Karels strength came chiefly from
the lake shore counties and the
counties where systematic campaign
ing was carried on against the in
come tax.
