MEXICAN FEDERAL
ARMY IN TIGHT PLACE
Supreme Question is Whether to
Fight or Continue Running.
THE REBELS ADVANCING
four Thousand Federals Under Gem
eral Mercado Practically Bottled
Up at Oiinaga, Across Border.

Presidio, Teas, Dec. 1O.-Wheth-
er the Mexican federal army under
Gen. Salvador Mercado, numbering
4,OOO soldiers, now on the United
States border, will make stand at
Ojin"ga against the rebels advancing
to that point, or whether they will
continue their retreat into the state
OF NueVo Leon is at present the most
absoroinS question in the revolution
2:y movement in not:hern Mexico.
Practically the em-':e strength OF
the federal army, reduced tY it's
right t: en- Chihuahua am II the
apathy of many of it's soldiers, Is
crowded into the little village oppo-
site PresidiO. 1t was to this point
they fed nj the hope Of obtaining
money and provisions. Toward them
is marching rebel army Of about
equal strength with the avowed pur-
pose OF surrounding the town and
bringing to a test whether any fed
erals are to remain in the north
The rebel reports were that Gen.
/ Francisco Villa was directing the
movements and the rebels were ad-
vanCing i'm two columns but probably
would not reach Ojinaga in force for
week. Even should the federals
decide to retreat information from
rebel sources said, they could not get
/ under General Herrera, who pursued
the refugees from Chihuahua, were
within striking distance of the town.
Indications in Ojinaga were that
the fedeTals would make a stand.
Trenches were dug, guns were
mounted on the hills and provisions
were carried across the river. Cen
erals Mercado, Orozco and Salazar
were particularly active in directing
the fortifcations after cummunica-
tion had been opened with Mexico
City.
For some reason the civilian ref
ugees who accompanied the army
from Chihuahua were allowed to
cross to the American side only a
few at a time. Those who crossed,
representing wealthy families whose
lives were thought to be in danger
of the bands of rebels, went imme-
diately to the nearest railway sta
ton at Maria. Texas. 1t was said
: civilian families were being held in
Ojinaga in the belief that the rebels
would not attack non-cOmbatantS
That the rank and file of the fed
erals looked upon the prospect OF
any more fighting with disfavor, was
manifest 4 score of soldiers in rag
ged uniforms saluted the American
calvalrymon on the border patrol
, and wistEully inquired whether they
might cross the river. Answered in
, the negative they said they would
desert if they were attacked by the
rebels. The fact that the federal
troops have long been without pay
? was thought to have determined
their attitude.

During the months Of the spring OF
the year l had occasion to observe
at somewhat short range the work OF
the society in dealing with most dis
! tressed conditions in the regions ot
the country which were visited bN
floods. Through the secretary o
War, who was in close cooperation
with the officers of this society,
know how admirably they Responded
to the call, and with how practiceC
a hand they responded-how clearly
the society understood its duty ant
: what admirable instrumentalities /
had through which to act"

To the Editor OF The News:

that the thing he needed most was
more money. The statement may or
may not be true, but knowing him

There are thousands OF men just like
this man. Money is all right to have
but it certainly is not the greatest
need today. That man has thousands
of dollars. / suppose he is worth at

but a ChTistian he is not what 1

ing to his own word his greatest need
is money.
MY greatest need is not money.
Notwithstanding the fact that / need
some money for it requires that a
man have some at least to carry on
his business if for no other purpose.
My greatest need is more common
sense with plenty Of grit to back it
up. Not the kind of grit that makes
a man want TO fight, fuss and bull
doze his fellowman, but the kind
that helps him to use his common
sense in common sense way. With
more common sense and plenty of
grit of this kind and both backed up
with the grace OF God, I believe is the
greatest fortune any man eer
has or ever will have.
For by grace through faith are

There's a Society with Ice
Cream Treats for Little
Mothers, but No Good
Times for Little F athers.

OF course this is the woman's age. The
happy male is he who accepts this fact
and expects nothing. Everybody is busy
giving woman what she wants or helping
her 10 fight for what she is after, and IL
would be a poor time 10 launch an or
ganization whose object was only TO bene-
ri the masculine seX-just that.
What sympathy is there for Mr.. Rupp.
who tried 10 start a "suppers for suffrage
widowers" society? None. Whereas AL
fred Brown. who left home and family 10
preach woman suffrage, is acclaimed on
every side.
No. it is no time TO plead the cause of
the masculine sex. and yet-oughtn't
something to be done for the little
fathers Of the East Side?
Unhonored and unsung, these lowly
beroes are plodding along. doing their
duty by the babies intrusted TO their care
Little mothers" are always having bou-
ouets thrown at them. Mrs. Clarence
Burns, who formed the Little Mothers
Aid Association, lies awake nights think
ing what new Christmas or Easter or
Thanksgiving treat she can give the young
members of her organization. No one
plans treats for the little fathers whom
one can see any day tending their charges
on the streets in New York's tenement dis
uicts, melancholy examples Of woman's
tyranny There is no incentive for them,
except an occasional "You'se. Tommy,
tend your little sister good or you'll get
a whippin'" flung from an upper window
in a MERGING feminine voice.
Once upon a time IL was considered the

, corner OF First avenue and 64th street
! yesterday two little fathers" were OBJ
served to set their respective infants on
the ground give them each a penny cone
of pink ice cream TO keep them quiet, and
engage in a pitched battle TO decide when
! baby was the heavier. The one whose
little father" made the other baby's lit
tie fathers" nose bleed was judged by
the audience TO have the most pounds.
There is one thing about these victims
OF woman's age-they manage TO get
some fun out of their baby tending.
There was the small boy observed yes
terday meandering homeward from the
Public Library in East 67th street. carry
ing a girl baby. book from the library,
a bag of cream puffs and pail OF milk
from the grocer's. With all this load he
contrived to hold the book open and read
IL as he walked, and take occasional bites
of a cream puff from the bag. The baby
was decorating its face with another
cream puff, and the party looked serenely
happy.
Having baby out in its carriage doesn't
deter the little father from taxing IN
any entertainment that comes along. Let
the FIRE engines dash past and away he
goes sprinting. with the baby wagon
which frequently is soapbox mounted on
homemade wheels-bumping madly over
the pavement. And the queer thing Is
that baby likes IL.
Yes. the little father" of the East SIDE
is all right But ne ought to be en-
couraged. Why doesn't Mrs. Burns form
a Little Fathers Auxiliary to her Little
Mothers Aid Society? Or couldn't Ernest
Coulter give special prizes in his Big
Brothers Society TO boys who are kino
10 babies? BY so doing Mr.. Coulter
might start a reaction in favor OF his
trampled-on sex. and perhaps help TO
bring about, in the dim far-of future
