The navy and war departments to-
night concentrated their attention on
the preparations for an important
| land battle expected almost hourly at
Vera Cruz.
Dispatches received by the presi-
dent informed him that General Mas
with 1000 men, was about to be join
ed by an additional force of 1900
men. With this total of 2,700 he
will endeavor to recapture Vera Cruz
from the Americans.
To meet the attack, the Americans
now have about 5000 marines and
blue Jackets ashore, with about 5000
marines entrenched three miles out
OF Vera Cruz in the path of the ad-
Vanclng Mexicans. This was an
nounced today by President Wilson.

taken with them several 3-inch field
pieces to assist the machine guns
Orders will probably be sent to Ad-
mlral Badger tonight to unship some
OF the smaller guns on the warships
and place them in position in the
trenches. Practice in this kind OF
service was held recently by the war
ships at Culebra, Porto Rico, in pre-
paration for the threatened taking OF
Vera Cruz.

trains from Torreon.
This afternoon the 1000 soldiers

planted at the international bridges.

A wireless dispatch from Admiral
Fletcher at p. m. said that the
disultory firing which was still going
on at p. m. had finally been stopped
by a house-to-house search and the
disarmament of the inhabitants.
Secretary Garrison issued the fol-
lowing statement tonight:
"The department has been in re-
ceipt of many kilograms from many
places along the border showing ap-
prehension, and to relieve the tension,
Ihave ordered additional troops to
report to General Bliss, to be dis
tributed at such places as he finds
under the circumstances. The three
at San Francisco Will report to Gen
eral Bliss, together with some artll-
lery from Fort Riley. Under orders
from the department no munition OF

little Ruth Penland has left us and
gone into the great Hereafter.
We will never see her smiling
face or hear the prattle of her
youthful voice again. Let us
pluck as many of the flowers as
we can among the thorns. He who
tempers the wind to the shorn
lamb only knows why He does
not allow our dear ones to stay
with us. God will tell us in that
great day why He took little Ruth
away. She was truly a bright
and shining light to the neighbors,

been my pleasure to know more
intelligent little sunbeam" than
Little Ruth Lee. We are all
powerless when it comes to facing
death. We cah only stand and
look on and feel our utter de-

have administered to them in then
sad and trying hour.-Written by {
