General Huerta's Artil-
lery Fire Continuous.

FL Paso. Tex, May 23.-Rellano, over
which the main columns Of federals and
rebels in Northern Mexico fought for
more than twenty-four hours, has fallen
into the hands Of the government.
The federal cavalry is pursuing rebels
north of Rellano. The advices were tele-
craphed tonight by General Huerta. the
federal commander.
Alberto Madero, uncle Of the Presi-
dent. received tonight a message from
his brother, Ernesto Madero, the Min
lister OF Finance. confirming the federal
victory. The message said
General Huerta has completely re-
pulsed Orozco at Rellano, having taken
all the positions The cavalry Is pur-
suing the fleeing OrozCoistas."
The rebel losses are known to be more
than six hundred dead.
r. c. Lorente Mexican Consul here,
received from General Huerta's camp,
via ,'exico City, the following:
AT this hour g p. No. General Vic
torian Huerta has returned TO camp and
Informs us that he has taken all posi-
lions Of the enemy in the hills near Rel
lano except one hill, which is still hold
ing out. The enemy in this position is
commencing TO disband."
Another reads:
"Rellano is now in the hands Of the
federals. The federal cavalry is now
pursuing the fleeing enemy"
Corraltos Che rebel 'front.'. May ID
The rebels retreated tonight north of
Rellano TO Corralltos, fourteen miles
away.
The federals began a hurried flank
movement at noon, which caused the
rebels 70 withdraw a few miles.
The artillery fire of the federals was
continuous.
As at Conejos q week ago, the rebels
were unable to withstand the hail OF
shells that poured into their ranks. Even
in the darkness the federals persisted in
their artillery fire.
General Orozco himself was awakened
By the exploding of shells near him and
personally directed the manPuvres of his
men. The night attack was surprise.
The federal officers once attempted
flank movemc.- toward the east, paving
the way with cannon. Orders were given
by rebel officers to guard the approaches
Of the valley. Meanwhile the govern
ment troops brought into play more ma
chine guns. but the fire of the rebel in
fantry and dismounted cavalry was felt
by the federals. The shells ploughed
their way into the positions stub5orn!y
defended by the rebels. but the latter
finally had the satisfaction of seeing this
mannuvre abandoned.

A N Englishwoman of wide experience
and one whose work has brought
her into close contact with many girls
and older women of an astonishing va
riety of natures and desires has writ
ten a little sermon to the discontented
girl
A real evil is far easier to remedy
than an imaginary one. Most people
will disagree with meat first.
oh" they will exclaim unbelievingly,
how ridiculous! An imaginary evil is
well. it's only imaginary while real
evil does a definite amount of harm
Exactly. Strange as it may SEEM
that is my very point.
A real evil does do a definite amount
of harm-of course it does-but the
harm is certain, material. calculable,
something which may be arrested and
killed.
With an imaginary evil there is moth
ing solid to grasp or to fight; it is a
vague, misty something which envelops
and blinds us. in which we wander
dazedly knowing neither its origin, its
power nor its purpose.
There is a dark cloud of the imagi-
nation which envelops and spoils the
lives of many women today and seems
as though it would grow into even
greater darkness tomorrow and after.
1t is the twentieth century woman
curse-a very fiend of unrest and
vague discomfort.
Let me look into it. ana1yze it, try %
suggest some remedies. for I am sure
that many who are reading this article
either suffer from it or through it

waves.
