What's, a ''Bull 2"

Peeved because Theodore Roosevelt
and other Bull Moose politicians have
been receiving a great deal Of publici-
ty and press comments, a gentleman
entered the Pioneer office Saturday
evening and requested that the Pio-
neer place the following question in
its columns and ask members of the
Bull Moose party to answer it,. The
question that appears to be Ibothering
Mr.. Wicks is, "What is the difference
between the Bull Moose party and the
real Progressive party?' Mr.. Wicks
wishes that some member Of the party
would attempt to answer the question
for reasons which he refused to di-
vulge.

LIGHT STATIONS HIT HARD

Gale on Lakes.
Washington, Nov. 17.-Fear is felt
by the United States lighthouse serv-
ice that Lightship No. 80 was sunk
in the recent storm that swept the
Great Lakes and is now lying beneath
the waters Of Lake Michigan. Reports
reached the service that the tender
Crocus had searched for the vessel in
vain and that the waters yet were
too rough to make an investigation be-
hearth the surface. The commander
Of the Crocus was ordered to spare
no pains in ascertaining at once the
vessels fate.
Heavy damage marked the passage
of the gale among the light stations
along the shores of. Lake Michigan.
Reports to the service announced that
the fury of the storm was especially
severe at Fort Gratiot, Pentwater, St.
Joseph, Charlevoix and other points
In Michigan; at Racine, Wis, and
Michigan City, Ind, and Calumet Har-
Dor, Ill. AT the last named place the
boat and boathouse were carried away
and the fog signals were undermined

Ell Paso, Tex, Nov. 1.-THE city of
Juarez has been captured by General
Panoque Villa and a force of several
thousand Constitutionalists The
capture resulted from surprise at
tack which began at 2 a. M, and
which was followed by four hours Of
fierce street fighting.
Mexican rebels numbering $500
made the customs house their head
quarters. General Castro, federal
commander Of Juarez, has fed.
Major Cervero Maresa, commanding
the rebel detachment guarding the in.
ternational bridge, said that seventeen
federals and four Constitutionalists
were killed during the fighting. One
American met death in Ell Paso.
AS soon as he had captured the city
General Villa announced that the
lives and property of all Americans
would be protected by the Constitu-
tionalists. The attack on Juarez be-
gan two hours after midnight, when
$500 rebels suddenly appeared in the
streets under Villas personal COM
mand.
They caught the federal garrison:
completely off guard and trapped the
defenders almost before they knew
they were attacked.
Villas men came in on a federal
train, wearing federal uniforms. They
deployed about the city under cover
of darkness and then opened fire from
three sides simultaneously.
Too Late for Resistance.
The federal patrols aroused the gar
rison as rapidly as possible, but the
attackers had gained positions OF
strong advantage before formidable
resistance could be organized by Colo
mel Castro, the Huerta commander.
For two hours the firing in the streets
was fierce and then at 4:15 the Con-
stitutionalists captured the customs
house. Occupying this as his head.
quarters Villa sent detachments out to
seize the approaches Of all river
crossings into Ell Paso In order to
prevent any fugitives from escaping to
the American side. The city had fall.
en- at 4:3o, although firing continued
until shortly after S o'clock.
AS soon as the fighting began the
rebels cut all telegraph and telephone
wires between Ell Paso and Juarez
and these were out of commission for
several hours. Later, however, when
the city had fallen they restored the
wires and telephoned the result of
the fight. t
During the firing General Hugh
Scott, commanding the United States
troops on border patrol duty here, inn
mediately took command in person
and sent special street cars to Fort
Bliss to get more soldiers Cavalry
commanded by Major R. 3. j.. Mitchie
were rushed to the international
bridges and patrolled the streets along
the river front to keep citizens out Of
harms way. Members of the Fiji
teenth cavalry made up these detach-
ments.
A section of Villas command fired
from the south side of the town dur
ing the engagement, using machine
guns and small arms. Hundreds of
bullets sang over Ell Paso but nobody
was hurt on this side. Only one house

The charm Of the evening and dane
ing gowns this season lies chiefly in
their simplicity and hlminess. Much
Of the grace Of the new dances is due
to the frocks that drape the figure of
the dancer so effectively with each

Crepe de Chine is one Of the great

for the clinging qualities it possesses.

Settlement Of Southern Pacific Strike

Houston, Tex, Nov. One of two
peace proposals aimed to settle the
Southern Pacific railroad strike was
refused by labor leaders here. They
rejected Julius Kruttschnitt's offer to
confer with the Federated unions
board, asserting that it was an eva

mediation remained as the only ap-
parent hope for speedy settlement.
Meanwhile except for a few passen-
ger trains the entire Sunset Central
system was completely tied up. No
violence had been reported.
