He had seen fire, but only when the
lightning had destroyed some great

ruined his delicious repast by plung-
ing it into the blighting heat, was
quite beyond him. Possibly the fire
was a friend with whom the archer
was sharing his food.
Tarzan would not ruin good meat in
any such foolish manner, so he gobbled
down a great quantity Of the raw flesh.

REBEL CANNON
OPEN BATTLE
Of T0RREON
Shells Poured Into Suburb as the
Long-Expected Critical Mexi-
can Clash Begins,

BERMEJTLLO, MEXICO, March 90
The long expected battle of Torreon
Is on. General Villas big guns began
the bombardment of the Mexican
Federals' stronghold at dawn to-day,
hurting shells into Gomez Palacio and
the suburbs of Torreon. All the
northern outposts of Torreon, with
the exception Of Gomez Palacio and
Lerdo, were captured by General
Villa in daring attack that brought
the Constitutionalist army within
nine miles Of the beleaguered city.
Moving his troops forward under
cover Of darkness, the rebel COM
mander took up strategic position.
and when the first light Of early
morning showed to-day he gave the
signal for a bombardment of Gomez
Palacio. The rebels big guns imme-
diately opened fire, and the greatest
artillery duel OF the revolution
against the dictatorship of President
Huerta began.
The Federal guns, mounted on La
Pila Mountain, replied sharply to the
rebel fire, while General Villa dashed
from place to place, directing the
alignment of his troops and dispatch
ing orders to detachments at dis
lance to hasten their arrival.
ut is only matter of few hours"
was the confident prediction sent by
General Villa to the Constitutionalist
headquarters here.
1.-THE artillery will clear the way
for the infantry and cavalry. Tor

General Villa has made extraordi-
nary plans to prevent the escape Of
General Velascos troops when Tor
reon falls. All railroads leading out
Of the city were cut
General Calixto Contresas with his
Durango brigade is expected to at
tack Torreon from the south to-

in-chief of the Zacatecas brigade Of
the Constitutionalists, and the Ar

REBALLASTING
NATCHlTOCHES BRANCH
Will be Begun Soon by Texar &
Pacific-Expenditure Of
$4,000 in Sight.

A railroad Improvement item
from the current issue of the
Manufacturers Record is as fol-
lows:
According to announcements
from the Texas & Pacific Railway
Co., two large sand and gravel
pits will be opened within the
next few days, one IN Texas, near
Fort Worth, and the other at
Natchitoches, La, on the Red
River. These will be the source
of supply for an unusually large
amount of ballasting work in
Texas and Louisiana, where ap-
proximately $4,000 will be ex-
pended for roadbed Improvement
To operating DEPARTMENT has pre-
pared a schedule of work trains,
and the Job will be rushed to early
completion.
Beginning at Whitesboro, Texas
on the joint track. there is about
ITO miles Of roadbed to be bal
lasted into Texarkana, Ark, on
the Trans continental division.
This will cost about $4,000.
The Natchitoches branch, about
IS miles between Shreveport. La,
and Cypress, La, will be rebal
lasted from a sand pit at Natchito-
ches. Operations upon a large
scale will begin about February 6.
An appropriation of about $45, O( q
| is available for this work.
The reballasting of the Natchl-
toches branch of the Texas d
Pacific, between this city and
Cypress junction, is believed IN
local railroad circles to be the hrst
step in plan which will ultimate
|ly mean the routing of many OF
the through freight and passenger
trains of that system over the
branch line. The road is several
miles shorter than the present
main line of the Texas 6 Pacific
between Shreveport and Cypress,
and has a much easier grade. An
nouncement in this connection by
officials of the Texas & Pacific
system is expected at an early
date.

Your Town.

If you live in town you should
believe in it. If you don't believe
your own town or city is a little
better in most respects than any OF
it's nelghbors you should move
out. Like other places, it has ad-
vantages that others have not, and
YOUR modesty should not prevent
you from making that fact known
whenever the opportunity presents
itself. At home or abroad wheth-
er pursuing pleasure or engaged IN
business, do not neglect to give
those with whom you come in con-
tact to understand that YOU live IN
a live town populated by enter
prising, wide awake, go-ahead
people, and one that is advancing
instead of retrograding. If you
can truthfully speak in common
dation of the ability of your pro-
fessional men, the square dealing
methods of your merchants, the
excellence of your mechanics. the
the superiority of Your churches,
schools and public institutions and
industry, energy and sopriety OF
your citizens. let nothing prevent
you from exercising that privilege.
You should learn to believe, il
you do not already, that we have
all these and in addition the best
located town, the finest country
surrounding it. with the most in
tclligent class of farmers to be
found. If there are any draw
backs it will not be necessary tC
mention them. The people and
newspapers of competing towns
will relieve you OF that task by
attending to that part of it them
selves. Strangers seeking loca'
tions are always greatly influenced
in favor of any town whose citi'
zens are enthusiastic in its praise.
No city or town expects to attain
prominence over its rivals unless
its inhabitants appreciate the ex'
cellence and virtues of each other
and will collectively spread abroad
their faith in the present pros
perity and future greatness OF
their locality. Talk is a cheap
commodity, but when rightly
utilized it can be made effective II
many directions and this is one OF
them. Louisiana Democrat, Alex
andria.

The road drag is growing in
popularity as its simple use and
benefits are understood and in GER
tain sections, just at this season
when the roads are generally at
their worse and farm work is not
so pressing. it is in constant de-
mand. One of the most successful
farmers in the south, the roads in
whose neighborhood are always in
fine condition, says that be has
learned by years of experience to
make his drag reversible, to move
dirt right or left by altering the
hitch. having the hind section 5 6
the length of the front and face
both front and rear sections entire
length with iron and steel. He
says to get best results under
varying conditions of road service,
dry, damp, soft or hard, he finds
it pays to have man along at the
end of a rope attached to the rear
end of the drag to properly steer
the machine and counteract lis
tendency to slide hard bumps
which need trimming OF and
smoothing.
The Natchitoches enterprise. (Natchitoches, La.) 1888-1965, 1914-02-12

The small town merchant who
fails to advertise lets down his
guard to the attack of the mail
order house. According to the
representative of one of these con-
Germs, who addressed Q recent con-
yention of newspapermen in Chi
cago. the plan is very simple.
The new business department
of the mail order establishment
searches the country for a CON-
munity the merchants of which
believe it is a waste of money to
patronize the newspapers. Re-
lieved of local advertising the mail
order houses furnish the residents
of that section with literature,
describing the products in which
they deal, which the people need
require and use, but which the
local merchants lack the enterprise
to make known to them.
The result is well known. =
