WILL STOP VILLA AT BORDER
Gen. Funston Ordered to Allow Car
rama Troops Only to Gross River
at Aqua Prieta.

Washington, Oct 2S.-Should Villa
troops cross the border and attack the
Mexican town Of Aqua Prieta from the
Texas side, as press reports from the
scene have indicated they might do.
they would be treated as outlaws, dis
armed and, in the event of resistance,
shot down by the United States troops.
Officials at the State and War Depart-
ments made this clear tonight, al
though no official advices had been re-
ceiTed that such developments were in
prospect
Major General Funston, commanding
the American border forces, has fuH
authority to take any necessary steps
to prevent violation of American terri
tory by Mexican armed parties, short
OF actually invading Mexico. An order
to cross the border would have TO come
from Washington, but if bullets fell on
the American side in the course of any
battle across the line, General Fun
stone may use his artillery to drive
the cOmbatants away.
In a message to General Funston
yesterday, Secretary Garrison renewed
general instructions for the conduct of
the border patrol. With the recogni-
ton of the Carranza regime as the de
factO government of Mexico the border
situation is somewhat changed. Should
armed men in revolt against that gov
eminent cross the line they would be
considered, officials explained, merely
as outlaws to be placed in custody and
surrendered to the Carranza forces on
proper application for extradition.
Should CarranZa soldiers be defeated
and forced to flee into American terri
tory they would be disarmed but per
mitted to return to Mexico at some
other point on the border, where their
arms would be returned to them. The
United States does not recognize that
a state of belligegency against the Car
rama government exists, and there
would be no question of internment.
limitations reached Washington to
day that Governor Ferguson of Texas
might decide to ask President Wilson
for a wider use of the federal troops

SENT NOTICE TO WASHINGTON
Governor of Sonora Says There VIII
Be No Safety for American
Property in Mexico.

Douglas, Ariz., Oct 3O.-At least if
ty and perhaps one hundred Ameri-
cans in that part of the state OF So
were placed in grave danger today by
the posting at Cananea OF printed
copies of the protest which Carlos
Randall, acting Villa governor, sent to
the State Department at Washington
This protest declared that unless
permission given General Carranza to
transport troops over American terri
tory to Aqua Prieta was not immedi-
ately revoked, there would be mo
safety for American citizens in Sonora,
much less for their property"
Fear for Seven Americans.
Seven Americans already are in the
hands of Villa troops, according to in
formation available tonight. James
Carr, ST., James Carr, Jr., Lawrence
Carr and William Doran are held at
EsQueda, and three linemen employed
on the FL Tigre power line, Archie
Mcdonald and two others named Mel
son and Greene, are prisoners at From
teras.

learning of the Randall threat

today that Aqua Prieta already was
under siege, but the situation on the
surface remained the same.

At Cananea alone American mining
interests have property valued at mil

USE ALCOHOL ON THE HAIR
Especially If Ii Is Apt to Get Dusty
and UnmanageabIe is This
Recommended.

If the hair is dusty and unmanage-
able after a journey of any sort, try
using alcohol to make it fluffy. The
alcohol will dry in few moments and
the hair will be ready then to arrange.
Many women who have taken rail-
road journey of several hours dura-
ton to wedding or dance have found
their hair. owing to the heat and dust
of the journey, quite heavy and dirty,
and have despaired of getting it in
shape in time for the festivities. A
shampoo takes too long to be INDUCED
in while one is dressing-and some
times it leaves the hair too fluffy for
immediate managing.
To get back to the alcohol treat
ment. Part the hair and rub little
alcohol on a piece of gauze on the
scalp until it is free from dust Then
rub the hair about the brows and ears
and the nape of the neck with the
alcohol Of course, it should first have
been brushed as free as possible from
dust Then let the hair hang loosely
until the alcohol has dried out The
hair will be light and fluffy.

GOOD USE FOR THE EYELET
May Be Employed Effectively in Many
Ways-Example in a Recent

used effectively for so many different
designs. varying in size from a mere
transparent point to the size of the
natural grape, although the necessity
for the latter size is rare
An up-to-the-minute art needlework
shop recently showed an effective CEN
terpiece of blackberries and their foil
age. The biackberries instead of being
done in the usual French knot stitch,
were formed of eyelets, the tiniest
kind. The eyelets changed the center
piece from rather commonplace de-
sign to one of distinct individuality,
and the sales person back of the coun-
ter said the store couldn't keep enough
OF the designs in stock. 1t is some
times necessary for the blackberries TO
have their dots spread farther apart
for the eyelets than for the knots, al
though il must be remembered that
the eyelets are of the tiniest and that
fine thread and fine needle are used
In the working of them.
The California pepper design is also
displayed 10 best advantage when
worked in eyelets instead of solid
stitch.
A centerpiece with grape border is
ten times as effective in eyelet work
for the grapes as when the grapes are
worked in solid stitch or outline
Huckleberries and mulberries should
also be worked in eyelets. Remember
that IL the eyelet edges are worked toe

such designs is lost. Flower centers
