Naco, Ariz., March l5.--Defying d
force twice their strength the fed
erals defending Naco, Sonora, today
marched out to meet the insurSent
state troops. At noon the battle was
in progress two miles below the Ari-
zona border, with the federals holding
their own by advantage of their ar
tillery.
Determined to avoid danger to resi-,
dents on the American side, and at
the same time refusing to surrender
or fee over the border, General Ojeda
is making the last stand for the
Eluerta government in Northern So
nora. Despite the precautlon one
American was wounded early in the
fighting.
Fearing for American civilians and
troops on the Arizona side of the line
here, General Ojeda shortly after III
O'clock gave the commando evacuate
the town. With his ATS men he
marched away to the southeast leav-
ing his Notifications and facing an
enemy twice his strength.
Startled by the unexpected assault
OF the federals Gales forces at noon
began 10 fall back. Bracamontes
group arrived but failed to stem the
tide of retreat. Ojeda continued to
force the fighting, advancing his posi-
ticn slightly.
The Red Cross banner is seen on
the field. The wounded were many.
The fighting this afternoon was
fcderals doggedly pressing forward,
showering the rebel positions with
shrapnel and machine gun lead. Ojeda
has two rapid fires besides his field
pieces.
BY II o'clock the battle was in prog
ress two miles below the border
Oieda's men charged to the top OF a
ridge of hills, dismounted and took
skirmish positions Gales group adj
vanced from the south and threw
aruelling fire against the federal posi-
.!cr. t!cn.
Despite the distance Of the fighting,
one American was wounded on the
line. He is A. A. Hopkins, a deputy
marshal, and was wounded in the leg.
The firing was furious from the
start. The federals at once brought
into play three field pieces. The state
troop outposts retreated in the face
OF the artillery fire. The federals
pressed forward, encountering the
main group of Gales constitutional
lists. The result was deafening fire
from both sides. Each held their posi-
tons firmly Bracamonte's group,
which was advancing on Naco at the
time of Ojeda's unexpected departure,
then began moving to the assistance
ol Gales.
By ! o'clock the fighting was gen
eral between the 500 federals and 900
state troops. The constitutionalists
We're beginning to hold their positions
despite the artillery fire.

relatively the same positions as last
night. Failure of the state troops to
move on Naco was explained by the

addressing the court, applied only
to interstate traffic, concerning which
the California railroad commission
has no jurisdiction.
However, in order to satisfy the
French banking interests, which hold
a $50,000,000 loan against the Cen
trail Pacific, it is necessary to lease
the Central Pacific to the Union Pa
cific. We recognize that this lease
must have the approval of the Cali
fornia railroad commission in order
to be valid and for that reason the
opposition of the California commits
sion to the preferential agreement
makes it impossible for the Union Pa
cific to continue with the modified
plan"
Judge Lovett recited briefly the his
tory of the negotiations between the
attorney general and the railway at
torneys in an attempt to devise a
plan that would conform to the disso-
luton decree.
After the plan was pretended to
this court on February "a" he said,
providing for the lease by the Cen
trail Pacific of the Southern Pacific
short line, the attorneys for the
Southern Pacific and Union Pacific
sought so to modify the plan as to
meet the approval of the California
board.
This plan was outlined orally to
the attorney general, but was not re-
duced to writing until late Wednes-

Bracamonte prepared to move on the

night on the American side and the
Mexican town was given over to

WALL STREET.

New York, March 15.--The stock
market closed heavy. Speculation
today reflected the uncertainty as to
the working out of various problems
overhanging the market Nothing
definite was disclosed regarding the
solution of the Hartman tangle, al
though advices received by some Wall
Street houses favored the view that
the revised dissolution plan would be
acceptible to the California railroad
commission.
Foreign markets reflected the dull
ness of the approaching Easter holi
days and although London prices for
Americans were easier, nothing of
importance was done here for foreign
account.
After early heaviness, in which
some new records, We're made, the
market soon rose above yesterdays
close. In the last few minutes sell
ing of Reading and Union Pacific
was brisk.
Bonds were steady.

According to most, there is Just one
way OF doing 1t; but there are end.
less variations of that one way. It
is not only to be on the safe side. that
we recommend the parquet flooring.
we believe 1t to be the best. 1t is
laid by experts and the question of
hnish is easily settled. The actual
cost OF the floor laid and finished is so
inexpensive that 1t seems hardly
worth while to go through the agony
or treating Georgia pine or any of the
other makeshifts. In different locali.
ties one wood is more easily obtained
than another, and as each kind of
wood requires a separate treatment,
the discussion would be almost end
less. There are oak floors, floors of
maple and pine, ash floors and red
gum, floors shellaced and waxed
floors stained and waxed, aged floors
filled and waxed, painted floors and
vanished floors, oiled floors and
floors that are only stained.
Nothing is accomplished with floors
except by thoroughly hard and mus
cular effort, for floor finish is far
more difficult than 1t seems. There
fore we recommend dark paruuet
flooring with wax finish, which is
obtained by several different methods.
In the pantry and kitchen we have
specified maple floors to be oiled. The
oil treatment, If done we'll and kept
clean with scrubbings, is nicely
suited to these floors. The wood dealt
with in this manner is preserved,
shows no great spottings and is easily
wiped out.
The bathrooms and the closets
where the parquet flooring is not used,
we have specified a Georgia pine to
be filled, shellaced and waxed. Be
sure that the floor wax used is COM
posed of real beeswax and turpentine.
You may safely take the word of a
reputable manufacturer on that score
The absence of thresholds is boon
to the housewife. Rooms and closets
may be swept out with ease - with
no sill to catch the dust in it's cor
ners. One can sweep through two
rooms at stretch without the use of
the dust pan and small brush.
When your parQuet floors are being
laid and finished see that their color
is fairly rich and dark. This makes a
better background for your rugs, and
helps complete a more harmonious
room.

trees; - the double pink and white
are especially beautiful. Blue Monks
hood and Foxglove in all its pale and
delicate shades might be crowded
into these beds. Mass your cOlors
and plant for good effects and the
result will surely charm.
IN the annual beds plant Salvias,
so vividly flame-color, brilliant Can
mas and Dahlias in all their varieties
for cutting; the cactus variety in
coppery tints being very decorative.
Forget-me-nots (myOsotis) in sheets
of azure blue are lovely against the
green. The spicy grass Pink makes
quaint edge to a walk, and Rose
mary, lavender and heliotrope have
their own enchantment.
At the more formal street side,
Towering shrubs, conspicuous among
them the Rhododendron Maximum
with it's dark glossy leaf and great
masses of pale bloom, are placed
within the hedge along the street
walk, and Conifers of different
shapes and color value are grouped
against the warm tint of the stucc0
in well-balanced array.
IF you use your garden you will
want to loiter in 1t, and rest there
enjoying its charms. A garden to
roam through is all right in its way
- but when you are tired of roam
ing, why come indoors and sit down?
Garden screens will seclude you and
garden seats invite your lingering.

From a Missionary in China.

Through the courtesy of Mr.. II. b.
Harts, the society editor has tie o.
portunity of publishing the following
extract from a letter. which Mrs.
Harts has received from friend,
who is the wife of a missionary in
China:
1--WE have just gotten fairly se,-
tied in our new house, though there
still remains several things to be
done. 1t is a Chinese custom when
ever a friend builds a house for all
his friends to present him with a
chicken or some scrolls for his guest
room, to come and fire off fusilade
of firecracks. For days We We're deaf
ened by the noise at frequent inter-
walls. You never heard anything like
L. Why, they would fire off enough
in a few minutes to be equal to all
tie crackers one hears in whole
day at Fourth of July at home.
Thy sent us IS scrolls and II
chickens and ham. How we did
wish they would not do it, but we
could not refuse them without Of
tending them terribly. A whole lot
went together too, so it was not a
iburdensome gift for any one. OF
course they expected to be invited to
feast and thus received it's equiv
alent or more in return. Of course
we had to have the feast, and we
were glad to do it. Mamma may have
told you about it, but if she is not
there you might be interested in hear
ing it. We decided to invite all the
church members and all who sent
presents as some were our neighbors
who are not Christians, We were
So glad they felt friendly enough to
send them, and took pains to see

that they were invited. We had
eighty guests altogether. 1t was a
lovely warm day, so the men, who
occupied 5 tables Is at table, sat
on the yerandaL, and the two tablzs
o! women were in our dining room.
4 Chinese meal begins with dien-tsin,
or dessert. 1t consist of lot of
small saucers filled with the follow
ing: One of peanuts, one OF ginger
colored red preserved celery with
shrimps, raw vegetables cut in fancy
shapes (Which We never eat for fear
they are not free from bad germs)
lets of watermelon seeds which have
been fried in oil and take the place
Of salted almonds at tables for they
are eaten between any course and AT
all times, tiny oranges tkumquats'
pieces of other oranges, and so on.
Some plates have cold sliced ham
and other cold meats too After
this course was taken away we Lad
eleven courses of the dinner proper
However. a caurse in Chinese meal
is Just single bowl, holding about q
quart, filled with some mixture, into
which all dip their chopsticks and
eat till this is empty. Some of the
bowls were bowl of chestnuts with
pork balls on top, one Of mixed dried
oysters, mushrooms, shrimps and veg

which make the Easter lilies and are
delicious) and chicken, one of the
seeds of a water lily, the lotus, cook
ed in syrup, (they are about the size
Of a hazelnut and are very good
a bowl of pork, all fat, with the top
Of the chunks beautifully Drowned; a
bowl of bamboo sprouts, pork chop

well as the small pieces of dried eel
which look just like cooked caterpil-
lars); bowl of hot canned pineapple
and lichis (both canned in Canton
and bought on street Lere) and so
on OF course there are lots Of things
Put in in the way of flavoring, etc,
which l do not know, and lots of 9th
er things of which know only the
Chinese name, which would mean
nothing to you. The last thing of all
was bowl of rice apiece and cups
Of tea. All ate heartily, as it is the
custom for Chinaman who is invited
to a feast to go without any supper
the night before and without break
fast, so lie can fill up well. The Chi
nese get little meat ordinarily, 50
