SUSPECT RAIDS AT
SEA ARE PLANNED
GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS ARE
CONCERNED OVER DEPARTURE
OF sEAGoINo MOTOR BOATS.
Belief Held That Wealthy Mexlcans
are Financing Filibusterlns Expedl-
tion and That Small Boats are to
Carry Arms for RaIdlno.

washington.--A tangled skein OF cir
cumstances Is perplexing officials here,
pointing either to an institution OF a
new commerce raiding campaign by
Germans in the Caribbean sea, or the
beginning OF q series Of filibustering ex-
peditions against Mexico. The justice,
navy and state departments have
worked on the mystery several weeks,
without result.
The departure of several seagoing
motor boats, the escape OF German
warrant officers interned at Norfolk
and the mysterious movements OF sew
eral American yachts in the Gulf OF
Mexico have baffled not only officials
of the Washington government, who
are anxious to prevent violations oil
neutrality through use Of American
territory as base Of naval operations,
but also agents of the British govern
ment, who fear commerce raiding
campaign 10 about to he begun against
the tank steamers which carry oil from
Mexican ports for use Of the British
navy.
Officials have two theories as to the
meaning of this series of happenings.
One is that wealthy Mexicans in the
United States are financing filibuster-
ing expeditions that have some con-
nections with the raids in the vicinity
of brownsville, Texas, and the other is
that small boats putting out from the
United States are being met at sea
and armed with guns Of medium cali
ber for raiding purposes.

JOSEPH DEAN.

swered to the last "rollcall', Friday
morning, October %, 1915 as Mr..
Joseph Dean passed from this life, at
the age of 73 years, A months and
2 days, having been born in Belve-
dore, ILL.,, June, 20, 1912. He was of
Irish descent, his parents immigrant
ing to America from Ireland.
Taking to wife Miss Laura Med
berry dn Freeport, ILL.,, Dec. II, 1867,
they lived i'm Freeport 80 years, and
in that vicinity since the Civil war,
until three years ago when they came
to Mountain Home. They lived In
town the first winter, opposite the
Howie residence, and the next spring
took up a homestead near Reverse,
a mile and half this side where he
spent his closing days.
Mr.. and Mrs. Dean had forty eight
years of married life and of the four
children given them all are living:
Mrs Emily E.Mullen of Freeport, LII. !;
Charles E. Dean, Mark N. Dean, Mrs.
Mary Dommell and an adopted daugh-
ter, Miss Lulu Dean, all of Reverse.
A younger brother, Jerry Dean, OF
Montana, died just two weeks before
the death of the older brother. Mr..
Dean is survived by another younger
brother in Montana, Harvey Dean;
also by two sisters in Iowa, Mrs. Har-
riet Wilson and Mrs. Matilda Wal
lace.
AS the ranks of the G.. A. R. are
thinning so fast each year, more In
terest and the halo of honor gathers
around each departure. Joseph Dean
was a long term soldier, serving in
the Union army from May "a, 1861 to
Sept. Is, 1865, four years and
months. He held the rank of cor
poral, was in the Fifteenth Illinois
Volunteers, company F. Mr.. Pool
in the Eighty-sixth Illinois, and Mr..
Velie i'm the 107 New York were in
the same battles with MIR. Dean.
The tie that binds the old soldiers
in comradship is very strong, as is
seen in the following incident:
Mr.. Vehe, father of Mrs. E. j..
Wheeler, came from his New York
home and took up homestead near
Reverse and induced Mr.. Dean to
take a homestead adjoining, building
their houses ON each side of the line
only few feet apart. Mr.. Velie left
his neighbor for the upper home two
years ago.
Mr.. Dean was a member Of the
church of the United Brethren, and
was thus Soldier of the Cross"
Funeral services were conducted
from the Cowan chapel, Saturday at
800 o'clock, Rev. c. e. Mason Off
ciating and Mrs. Weaver and Mrs.
Longfellow singing selections. The
Daughters of Veterans attended dn a
body, assisting in the decorations and
furnishing a flag for the coffin. Not
withstanding the severe sand storm
which struck the town at the time
the house was well filled. The body
of the deceased wore ON his coat
the little bronze button so dear to the
heart of each grayheaded soldier.
Brief services were held at the grave.
