Helen had not thought of going to
the station, but now she understood
why Warren wanted her. She knew
the long drive with Alice would be in
strained, and awkward silence, and
he had no intention of taking it alone.
The elevator boy came up for the
trunk, Warren got into his overcoat,
and at the last moment Alice came out
of her room carrying her satchel.
They went down to the cab in silence.
Helen took the back seat beside Alice,
while Warren settled himself in the
seat opposite.

VILLA IS BUSY
ENLISTING NEW
MEN FOR ARMY
Activities of Rebel General Said
to be Step Towards Final
Reckoning With Carranza-
Gets American Horses.

WASHINGTON. July 29-Disturb-
/ recruiting activities of Gen. Villa have
been received at the state depart
ment. Consular Agent Carothers in
dispatches to the department confirms
the reports that Villa has greatly
augmented his army and states that
he is getting many horses from the
American side. Carothers adds the
significant comment that everybody
knows what this means"
Officials in both the state and war
departments construe this comment to
mean that there will be a decisive and
perhaps bloody reckoning between
Carranza and Villa before Mexico City
is taken over by the constirutionalists.
Villas army is estimated at nearly
$4,000 men with recruiting for in
fantry and cavalry still going on. The
plain inference from these conditions
drawn by Washington officials IS that
if Carranza proposes to enter Mexico
City under terms unsatisfactory to
Villa he will be blocked by Villa and
his troops.
The news at the state department
contradicts the reports from Juarez
that Secy of State Bryan had sent an
ultimatum to Villa to the effect that
this government would not tolerate
further breaches between him and
Carranza and that Villa had promised
to obey.
1t is still hoped at the state de-
partment that there will not be a
new civil war in Mexico and that
Villa is displaying his strength merely
to force suitable concessions for him
helf and his followers.

Alice kept on rolling up and crush

had swept everything out of the closet

heap on the floor by the trunk, and
she was packing them in regardless
OF how they would look when taken

Contrary to the American type OF

She Is the center Of attention in all

She does not miss a single circle

She loves to visit Europe and
