The Eastern University Preparatory
at CIaremore has also made very
creditable improvements, as is shown
by the increased territory now repre-
sented in the enrolment which covers
fifteen counties at this time.
One OF The improvements that is
most pleasing and which is evident in
all Of the state schools is the increas-
ed interest in their exterior beauty
and grounds. This spirit has been
given every encouragement by the
state school authorities, and reports
indicate chat it is now being generally

OF all institutions.

Villa Declares That He viii Capture

Rebel General Wires TO a

up 81, 900 in Gold.
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.

Tuarex. March ia letter received
here today by way Of Eagle Pass.
Texas, dated Torreon. March 16, stated
that Torrecn was still In the hands OF
the FederaIs on that date, and that
General villa had not closed the rail-
road.
Gen. vIiia autographed a friend TO-
day, saying: "Bet all your money my
forces will capture Torreon by March
3D.
The recipient Of the telegraf found
a Federal sympathizer who wagered
one Thousand dollars in American gold
that Villa not only would not make
his boast good but that the F'ederals
would have Torreon at the end of
April.
BAN CONTINUES ON NEWS.
The ban on news from the interior
remained firm today. Indirect infor-
nation indicated that there had been
no fighting OF consequence during the
last few days.
General Villa in his off1ciai advices
did not make known his plans OF what
was occurring to the north of Tor
reon.
It was explained that the absolute
embargo on news by train and tsle-
graph had been imposed in order to
prevent the Torreon garrison from
learning OF insurgent troops move
ments.
News from Mexico City that of1-
cials had denied the report of q Fed
era1 victory above Torreon dispelled
any belief among Rebels an such re-
ports.
A simultaneous attack on Torreon
and Mazatlan was predicted in advices
received today. It was said that while
General Villas Rebel army was NOV
ing against Torreon forces under Gen
eral Obregon would assault Mazatlan.
Ohregon was reported to be moving
l., 900 troops against the Pacific coast
port.
This was said TO be part OF n seMl
eral plan for an aggressive movement
against all Federal forces in Northern
Mexico.
The fail of Ma1atlan, It was said,
would mean virtual control OF the west
tNe <lrQe6 center of Cenfral Mexico
Rebels capture these two points. both
armies would, 1t is said, move against
Guadalajara- which is the strategic key
to the south
According to the plans Guayrnas
would be ignored in the hope that
the California gulf port might fall
with the capture of, Mazatlan.
, Tt was said that the simultaneous
against Torreon and Ma
zatlan had received the sanction of
General Carranza who is marching |
overland into Chihuahua.
