Field Strewn with Dead.

Losses in the first days fighting were
great, as to-day the battlefield was strewn
with the dead and wounded on both sides.
The rebels had chung tenaciousy to their
positions, but the combined assaults OF
infantry and cavalry, supported by the
deadly fire of the artillery, had forced
them TO yield strategic hills and ranges
overlooking the canyon. The federal troops
carried out orders with mathematical pre-
cision Conspicuous In the fighting besides
General Huerta as the commander-in-chef
were his lieutenants, Generals Rabago and
Teller. as well as Raoul Madero. brother
of President Madero.
The federal advance northward began be-
fore noon, the city OF Chihuahua being he
objective. Eagerness to pursue the rebels
gave General Huerta's forces a stimulus
that was apparent on the march.

| American born the fifteen hundred were all
/ filled with the spirit of the day.
! At most OF the Fresh Air centres the cele-
| brations began with a fag-raislng and
saIute TO the flag. Following this the pro-
/ gramme varied according to the tastes or
the ceebrators. Some had parades and
speech-makings. some had picnics, others
field day sports All the programmes had
one feature in common-noise This despite
the fact that the only giant crackers III
evidence were edible.
At St Helens Home, lnterlaken, Mass
after the flag raising. flag drill ana
few other purely patriotic exercises, the
hundred boys and girls who are staying at
the Home gave circus.
Across the road from the Home, In the

was set up. and at o'clock sharp show

! II wasn't a stereotyped circus. by any
means II had some features which are
ordinarily overlooked by the promoters Of
big shows" and some which are not. IT'S
great hit however. was a line of celebri-
| ties past and present, done to the life in
manner TO make Mrs. farley envlous.
Goddess Ceres in Line.
First in the line was to be seen the god

shed some OF the dignity and placidity as
cribed to her by Horace and his co-lsborers
in days gone by. This was probably due,
| however. TO the fact that those very APP
purtenances of identification tlckled.
| Next to Ceres stood Pocahontas--prob-
