in the excitement Of the day Cinder-

of her good fortune began when she
discovered the grievous fact that she
had lost a slipper.
Miss Macmillan wore the slippers to
the theater. They were so pretty when
she put them on that she could not
resist the temptation of wearing them
right away. SO she carried her old
ones. But when she got to the theater
she did not want to risk the beauty
Of the new treasures by stretching
them. She changed to the old ones
again and wrapped the new ones in
the bundle and placing it under her
arm. proceeded to go shopping.

church worker in the congregation of
Penberton Methodist church. was
the object OF universal sympathy. The
community has absolVed her from all
blame. Brown. who deserted a wife
and two children. was blamed for the
responsibility.

The rebels were believed to be con-
centrating under the personal direc-
ton of Gen. Francisco Villa, TO pre-
sent a solid front when they again
march on Ojinaga. The situation was
such that the rebel attack might be-
gin momentarily or be further de-
layed.
All of the nine generals. who re-
main in the trenches here with the
1000 Huerta soldiers, said every hour
of delay gave them opportunity to
prepare resistance and Gen. Villa
would have TO greatly reinforce the
rebel army to repeat the six days
battle Of last week. when the rebels
reached within 400 yards of the
Ojinaga trenches without being able
to take them.
