A Young GiIbertian.

Harry's little cousin had every toy
known to the arts of toydom and to his
doting parents; so, when his Indian
suit showed signs of wear, it was re-
placed by a new n and the discard
ed splendor was divided between
Harry and another boy cousin. Harry
drew the fringed and beaded trousers.
At first he was radiant, but a glance at
himself in the mirror quenched his

"Oh, mother" cried he in sorrow.

Refused Parole, Granted Pardon.

The most unusual convict to be
pardoned from the New Jersey State
Prison, and the only man who has re-
fused to leave after having been pa
rolled, is John Budd, ifty-two years
old, who returned to Jersey City with
a relative. He was to serve fifteen
years but in December, 1913, he was
granted a parole. Budd appeared be-
fore the Court of Pardons and re-
quested that he be given a full par
don, SO that he could be restored to
citizenship and have the stigma re-
moved. The court granted his wish.

Decoration Day May 81.

Although Decoration Day falls on
Sunday this year, Monday, May 81,
will be a holiday in the public schools
of the State.
"The uncertainty as to whether or
not May 81 would be a legal holiday"
said the commissioner, probably arises
from the fact that in 1913 Columbus
Day fell on Sunday, and the following
Monday was not a legal holiday, ow-
ing to the fact that when the Legis-
lature passed the act making Colum-
bus Day a legal holiday it did not pro-
vide that when it fell on Sunday the
following Monday should be a holiday.
Last year the Legislature amended the
act so that in future when Columbus
Day or any other legal holiday falls on
Sunday, it will be observed the fol-
lowing day. Monday, therefore, is a
legal holiday, whenever any of the
legal holidays fall on Sunday"

REVIVE OLD LAW
FOR HEALTH FIGHT
State Board to Enforce Measure
Requiring Local Precautions
OFFICERS TRAIN AT SEA GIRT
Announcement Made of U. S.. Army
officers Detailed to instruct Com
missioned Men of State Guard
Five N. j. Firms Incorporate.

Especial Trenton Correspondence.)
Trenton.-By reviving a provision
of the health law of the State, which
for years has been a dead letter, the
State Board of Health hopes to make
more progress against the spread Of
tuberculosis in the homes of the State.
The State board has just sent a letter
to every local Board of Health making
it mandatory that the law be carried
out requiring local boards of health to
keep on hand supplies that may be
needed to prevent the spread of tuber-
culosis and to furnish such supplies
to physicians for their patients.
The law also requires local boards
of health to provide circulars of in
formation concerning the precautions
necessary to prevent the spread of
tuberculosis, and to distribute these
circulars to patients through their
physicians. The State board will sup
ply these circulars free of charge to
the local boards.
The supplies recommended to be
kept on hand are sputum cups, cup
holders, paper napkins, waterproof
paper bags and pocket sputum cups.
These are used to collect the sputum
in order that it may be destroyed.
Disinfectants may also be supplied at
the discretion of the local boards.
The State board hopes that by car
rying out these provisions of the law
local boards may be able to get a
firmer grip on the tuberculosis stu
alton that will materially lessen the
spread of the disease in the home.

1t is expected that more than 200
officers will be in attendance at this
camp of instruction. The school for
non-commissioned officers, which will
be held from July 5 to II, will be at
tended by more than 700 men. The
instructors for this camp have not
yet been announced.
Since there was no provision made
for the assembling of the ~privates in
the State Guard for m~anoeuvres, the
War Department has cancelled the
orders assigning many United States
Army officers to Sea Girt.
Guard officers have taken advantage
of the present crisis to bring home

The selection of Donovan is said to
be a recognition of former Mayor

has been made by either faction.

Ell Paso.-Gen. Obregon's army is
~retreating from Leon to Silao as fast
as Villas troops fed from the battle
field of Celaya a month ago., Juarez
military officials said. The bulk of
Villas army has reached Leon, TWEEN
ty-fve miles from Silao, which was
Obregon's base of operations.
Villas soldiers are repairing the
railway destroyed by the Carranzistas
in their fight from Leon.
To Villas caution and desire to take
no chances of losing is attributed his
delay in following up his victory.
Juarez officials a. that a terrific at
tack by Villa on Obregon troops is
imminent.
Reports reaching the border con
firm the report that the Yaquo o n
tingent of the Carranza army has
issued an "ultimatum" to Gen. Obre-
gon declaring their intentiona of OBJ
tanning an immediate discharge from
the Carranza army or they will desert
IN masse.
Villa claims that the Yaquis are de-
sirous of joining his forces and that
arrangements are under way to re-
ceive them into his army.
Nearly 200 Carranza soldiers were
killed in a battle with Villa troops
under Gen. Trujillo at San Pedro de
las Cuevas, according to a message
to Villa consular officials in Ell Paso
from Gov. Maytorena of Sonora. May
torena's message claimed that the
Carranza column retreated after a
battle lasting six hours. Two ma
chine guns, several thousand rounds
o Ammunition and food supplies were
captured by Trupillo. 1t was reported
Trujillo's losses were Twenty-Five
killed, among them two officers. 1t is
said that two Majors were among the
C~arranza dead.
