CARRANZA NOW TO
STOP THE RAIDERS
Recognition of the Constitutionalists
VIII Mean Restoration of
Order Along Border.

BROWNSVILLE. Oct. 9.-Officials
on this border, both military and
civil. were practically unanimous to-
night in declaring their belief that
recommendation for recognition of
the Carranza government as the de
facto government Of Mexico, will end
the Texas bandit troubles and the
San Diego plan revolution In addi-
ton TO the expectation that the Car
rama officials would not tolerate the
presence of bandits along the Mex
lean border any longer it was be-
licved that it soon would be possible
for officials on the American side of
the river to confer with Carranza
officers, something which has been
impossible in this section of the bor-
der. Lack of such conferences has
been responsible in part for some
serious Observation-Disclosures.
The troops of General Eugenio
Lopez the new Carranza commander
at Matamoros, continued today TO
show their apparent determination to
clean up their side of the river. Two
men from the band of Luis De La
Rosa, leader of the Texas revolution,
we're caught near Reynosa and sent
to Matamoros

Judge Conn Linn Decides
for Mrs. Vance at
Pawnee Sitting.
BIG BOND DEMANDED
Spirited Legal Battle EX-
pected to Be Forth
coming Now.

Judge Conn Linn of the district
court, in session at Pawnee yester-
day granted the application of Mrs.
Gladys Vance for the appointment
of a receiver for the estate of Ben
Vance, who died some time ago. Tie
court announced that it would be
necessary for the person named as re-
ceiver to furnish bond in the sum
Of 100000. Late last night 1t was
declared the identity of the receiver
had not been revealed. This made
Il probable he will not be named
until tomorrow morning, or even
later.
Phe courts decision was the first
fuI Mrs. Vance, who declares she was
cut off by her husbands will with
s.. Shortly after his death she filed
suit in district court requesting that
divorce which had been granted
her husband be annulled. This case
is still pending Later Mrs Vance
sought to be appointed receiver for
the estate through the county court,
Notwithstanding her husbands will
named Nance's father as admins
TRAITOR The court decided in favor
of the defendants.
Particulars relative to Judge Linns
decision are lacking, but it is under
stood that after the hearing the court
unhositatingly announced that he had
found for the plaintiff The attOr-
neys representing the plaintiff were
Martin & Moss while J. Il. League
and J. Y. Murray looked after the
interests of the Vance estate.
Spirited Legal Battle.
The Vance case promises to develop
into one of the most noted legal con-
tests in this part of the United States
for many years. Although Mrs.
Vance was left with practically moth
ing, following the death of her hus-
band, her lawyers contributed their
services in an effort to correct what
they considered to be a great wrong.
In her petition to set aside the divorce
which had been granted her husband
in superior court, in lieu Of a con-
test, Mrs. Vance declared the decree
had been issued without her know
ledge and even while she was alb
sent from the court.
It also was alleged the plaintiff had
secured his divorce through fraud.
During the administrator hearing
Mrs. Vance set forth that Vance sr
was Incapable of properly caring for
the estate of his son and that the
elder Vance was at the time of the
hearing insOlvent.
The trial of the case, in which the
courts have been asked to set aside
the divorce. Is scheduled TO come up
during the present term of the dis.
trict tribunal. and it's calling is
awaited with some anxiety

and tonight the red-hoscd champions
of the American league and the Phil

Boston with the honors of the 1915

President Woodrow Wilson and his

the hOnOrs of the second contest with

their best wielders of the willow and

allowed the entire opposition, includ-
ing a sizzling smash IN the ninth that
sent Gardner across the plate with
the winning Boston run,
In addition 60 these few meager
activities in the box, young Foster
sped to first base couple of times
and took throws from mis- fellow
fiolders that turned two seeming
errors into sensational outs.

throngs and was smilngly happy
over the attentions showered upon

Among the surprises in the Euro
pean news field come the announce
ment Of the voluntary retirement of
Count Won Bechtold, the active head
Of the Austro Hungarian government.
No reasons are given for the disap-
pearance Of this unique and COM
handing figure from the arena Of old
world politics, where he had shown
himself a master mind as well as a
"dark-lantern" diplomat Of rare abtl-
ity. 1t was he, rather than the veneer
able Franz Josef, who guided the dcs-
TIMES Of the twin empire with a master
hand, and whatever OF praise or
blame may be due the powers at
Vienna belongs chiefly TO this man.
He It was who made humilisting de
mands Of Servia and who declined 10
consider the concessions offered, but
preferred to chastise the Serb into
complete submission. While we dc
plore the act that plunged all Europe
into bloody conflict, It cannot be de
MED that the growing power of Ser
via was a most serious menac TO
Austrian political integrity, and TO a
mar OF Bechtold's mind this conflict
was not only amply justified, but
was a last resort TO prevent national
dissolution. such are the limitations
OF human wisdom, for tho very pol
icy which then seemed nedessary has
now developed q condition where
nothing short Of a complete Tcu-
tonic triumph can prevent the dis
appearance of Austro-Huugary as an
integral nation.

Today there are more than two mill
lion Boy Scouts in the world and
America stands at the head Of the
list. 1t was In 1910 that General
Baden-Powell came to the United
States and Mr.. Thompson-Seton
marched his 1000 900 "Woodcraft In
dian Brotherhood" boys under the
banner Of the Boy Scouts of America.
Boys all over the country began to
shower letters for application for
membership on the heads of the or
ganization, and today the Boy Scouts
in this country number 100000. over
these are about six thousand masters
and the Scouts law for this biggest
organization of youths in the country
reads as follows: Honor among com
rades, fealty and obedience to par
ents, employers and superiors, and to
Count the day lost whose low de-
scending sun views from the hand no
generous action done Chivalry to-
wards women and girls, protection Of
the weak and consideration for the
aged and infirm." 1t has been said
that lin these ringing creeds is to be
found the blood Of a revived and mil
liant knighthood come to arrest the
menace Of greed and %selfshness and
commercialism of American life"
Thousands Of the boys in crowded
cities have learned to shoot, ride,
skate, swim, run, use tools and to
know the woods and it's ways. Many
In their new scout uniforms have ac-
CURED self-reliance and resourceful-
ness for every occasion.
