Interpreting the civil trouble in Mexico
as being critical and unsafe for Americans
in that republic, w. W. Boyce, general
secretary Of the foreign mission councils
Of the Associate Reformed Presbyterian
church of tn South, has wired from this
city to the missionaries leborlng for this
denomination there to return to this coun-
try at once. Mr.. Boyce lives at Rock Hill,
S. c., but came here from a conference
with leaders Of the denomination.
Some of the men and women who are In
charge Of missions in Mexico were sent to
that field 25 years ago. Rev. Neill E
Pressly, wife and son Rev. Henry Pressly,
are well known in this community. Gen.
eral Secretary Boyce himself has son in
that field, being the youngest missionary
to be sent there by the board of foreign
missions.

missionary in that country, is step-mother
to Mrs. j. C. Reid Of this county.

supreme ON the high seas and only
steps down when the Pilot takes
charge. Furthermore it would be mad

The row goes merrily on. There are
several thousand souls down there
who are anxious to see Intervention
from US and a good many are going
to live to see 1t. .
Since the departure Of Diaz there
is not a man in the republic big
enough to manage the tarters and 30
the present conditions will continue
until some nation intervenes. II the
United States doesn't do 1t some other
nation will and that we could not
brook.
It is seriously, only a question OF
time until the United States will have
to do something. She may as well

New Orleans, April N.-With the waters
from the Panther Forest and Dogtail Gre

at 2 o'clock tonight recorded 2o.2, rise O.
two-tenth Of q foot since the same hour
this morning.
The levee situation in the vicinityo OF New
Orleans is without material change. In
gineers are kept busy investigating ru-
mors of trouble in the river banks, both
above and below the city, but all OF these
have been found to be without foundation.
A stretch of 1000 feet Of the leyee two miles
below Buras is reported to pc the worst
section Of the emb ankment south OF this
city, A large force Of workmen has been
rushed to the threatened stretch. and those
in charge Of the work express the belief
that 1t would be in condition to hold by the
time the crest reached here.
Conditions in the flooded area OF north
ern Louisiana are little changed. Some Of
the inundated towns and villages report
the water slowly receding and othere In
