San Pedro Probably Next Fight

San Pedro Probably Next Fight
San Pedro, twenty-siX miles north least
of here, says a Torreon dispatch OF
Sunday, it is said in all probability
will be the scene of the next battle.
San Pedro, a hill city whose natura
defenses must be approached over q
fiat country, held a federal garrison al
the time the battle Of Torreon was be-
ing fought but this force was prevent
ed by rebel column from coming tc
the assistance of Gen. Velasco.
Recently a comparatively small force
Of rebels attempted to take the town
having under estimated the strength OF
the garrison, whose real numbers were
developed by the attack.
General Villa has been building up his
force in the last few days for a renewal
of the assault. The defeat Of the fed
erals at San Pedro would, it is said
remove the'last federal force from this
district.
The whereabouts Of the troops driv-
en- from this city last week is not
known. although it is believed Velasco
is headed for Saltillo.
The Spanish colony ordered out OF
this city by Gen. Villa, it is said, prob
ably will be placed aboard trains fol
JuareZ tomorrow.

one hundred and seyenty-five convicts

one hundred and seventy-five convicts
have received clemency at the hands
of Gov. Cole l.. BleaSe since he was
|inaugurated for the first time January
II, 1911. OF this number about three
fourths were released under paroles
and the rest were given full pardons
or had their sentences commuted.
These figures were compiled TINS
morning from records in the office OF
r. NJ. McCown, secretary of the state.
Governor Blease seems to have Deaten
the mark he set for himself. AL tne
annual conference of governors In
Richmond, Va, in the fall of 1912, in
the course of speech Governor
Blease, boasting then of his pardon
record, which was over 400, said that
he hoped to make the number SOO by
the end of his second term. with
little less than a year OF that second
term gone the governors pardonlng
record has reached nearly 1,2OO.
There is much speculation as TO the
effect the record is going to have on
the governors race for the senate. he
stated after his reelection in 1872
that he was proud of his pardon rec
ord and that he considered the people
had endorsed it by re-electing him.
Since that time 600 more prisoners
have been freed, and there is every
indication that the pardoning record
will again be one of the main issues
in the campaign for the senate. Gov
ernor Blease Is apparently carrying
out his declaration that he would de-
populate the states prison by August
1. Many prisoners have been sent pack
to the county chaingangS and others
have been paroled or pardoned. There
are only 1S6 prisoners left in the pen
itentiary. of whom $50 are men. Some
81 prisoners are employed on the
state farms, but 1t Is stated that tnls
Is much less than the number neces-
sary to work the farms and operations
will have to be greatly curtailed. In
talking with Governor Blease 1t does
not appear that his pardoning record
is worrying him. On the contrary, ne
appears to believe that the people Will
endorse his action. A great many let
ters come to the governors once
from all parts Of the state asking Tor
COPIES Of the pardon book which con-
tain the reasons for each pardon, and
the whole matter appears TO De at
tracing a great deal Of interest. Some
folks are wondering whether Senator
Smith will attack Governor Blease on
his pardon record, as Judge Jones did
in 1912. The pardon board, which Is
com posed of D. H. McGill Of Green
wood and Sam B. Craig and ]. E. Tur-
ner of Columbia, has just finished
their quarterly meeting and will hie
their report with the governor. 1t is
understood that the board had nearly
100 petitions for clemency before 1t:
Governor Blease is to speak IN
WATERFORD, the county seat OF Cole
ton next Saturday, and Hon. John l..
McLaurin Is to speak at Chick Springs
in Greenville county.

ALL ALONG BATTLE FRONT THE
GERMANS ARE ON OFFENSIVE

a victory on them. The operations
along these roads may also merely be
a reconnaissance movement, checked
by the Germans, but all reports agree
that the German resistance at Lille
continues to be of the most stubborn
nature.
Only the most meagre reports ar
rive from the eastern war area, but
it is clear that the Russians are at
least holding their own. Both sides
evidently are entrenching and the WIS.,
tula river region promises to become
another battle of the Aisne.
The allies console themselves for the
Russian withdrawal from western Gal
icia and the advanced positions near
the Russian Polish border by the be-
lief that the Germans, having commit
ted themselves to an invasion of Rus
sian Poland, will not be as likely to
send reinforcements to the armies IN
the West as would have been the case
if the Russians had suffered a great
reverse nearer the German frontier.
Outside of the purely military opera
tons interest eenters in the Russian
Emperor's ukase against vodka and in
the efforts being made for the Bel
gians still in their own country and to
feed and repatriate those who have
taken refuge in other countries. Ber-
lin states that no obstacles will be
placed in the way of this necessary
work, but at the~same time claims that
Germany has done all possible in view
of military exigeneies, to relieve the
distress in Belgium.
The Russian Emperor's ukase is said
to have been issued in response to a
widespread demand of his people, who
have been astonished by the effect on
the country of the prohibition of the
use of vodka which followed mebiliza-
ton.
Patriotic Britons today are making
Mecca of Lord Nelson's monument,
decorated in honor of the anniversary
of the victory of Trafalgar. From an
early hour enormous crowds surged
about Trafalgar square and nearby
streets. A strange reversal of history
is the number of floral tributes placed
on the monument to the French navy.

and the bear sank to the ground. Mr..
Neal rushed forward, believing he had
killed the animal.
As he approached, however. the bear
suddenly showed signs of life and,
scrambiing to his feet with surpris-
ing agility, he attacked Mr.. Neal saw
agely. The Massachusetts man hao
nothing save an empty gun, and, in
order to defend himself against the
savage rush of the Infatuated beast, he
cast the piece aside and drew the
stout hunting knife with which he
happened to be armed.
Then followed a scene which puts the
experiences of Joe knowles in the Maine
wilderness completely In the shade. The
bear struck out desperately with his
sharp claws and Neal sprang this way
and that in an effort to avoid
the animal. continually lunging for
ward with his knife. Both bear
and man succeeded in landing
many savage blows and both were soon
bleeding profusely, Mr.. Neal from the
animals claws and the bear from the
knife thrusts which his human adversary
had inflicted. There was scarcely
thread of clothing left on Mr.. Neal when
he eventually succeeded in driving his
knife nearly up to the hilt in Bruins side.
battle was over. Neal was completely
exhausted and could have lasted but
short time longer, he says.

France and to neutral countries con-
corning alleged violations of the rules
of the Geneva convention of the
French franc tireurs (sharpshooters)
and regular troops.
1t is declared in this protest that
the French have killed or mutilated

ed on ambulances filed with wound
ed and bearing the Red Cross flag;
that they have invaded German hos
pitfalls, robbed the hospital staff and
stolen hospital equipment; that they
have fired on German doctors who
were gathering or attending to the
wounded, killing some of these medi-
cal men and taking others captives
and that they have captured German
field clergyman whom they treated as

This protest is accompanied by 10
affidavits from various German SOL

priests, which support the allega-
tons made therein.

LABRADOR IS
FACING H A R D
W|NTER-WILL BE
AIDED BY Govt

st. Johns, n. F., Oct. 21.--The fisher
folk of Labrador, facing a hard winter
as result of the short catch of cod
during the present season, will be aided
by the Newfoundland government. Eff
forts also will be made to prevent fur
Their spread of beri-beri, several cases Of
which disease have occurred along the
coast. 1t was announced today that dur
ing the remaining five or six weeks in
which Labrador will be accessible to
shipping the government mail boat would
make two trips. one to the northern and
one to the southern section, carrying a
stock of foodstuffs. Special arrange
ments have been made by the govern
ment for the treatment of beri-beri pa
TENTS in hospitals in this city.
The disease has appeared in various
parts of Newfoundland al we as in Lab
rador In letter just received here
Dr. W. T. Grenfell, the Labrador medical
missionary, says that cases are becoming
aIarmingly frequent in that region DR..
j. NJ. Little, in charge of the Grenfell
hospital at St. Anthony, N. F., attrib-
utes the situation largely to the fact that
the fishermen in many cases cat little
but white -four bread during the winter.
Patients in an advanced stage of beri-
beri, according to Dr. Little, have been
cured simply by providing them with a
varied diet.
