When a fellow pupil whispered
something that struck him as very
funny Walter Johnson, a 16-year-old
Chicago high school boy, laughed so
much that his teacher called him to
her desk and reprimanded him. He
explained that he could not help
but the teacher sent him home with
the injunction that he must be accom-
panied by his aunt, his guardian,
when he returned. A few hours af-
terward his dead body was found in
the lake; presumably he had COM
mitted suicide.

ZAPATA'S ARMY
IS PUT TO FLIGHT
Carrana Forcees Occupy His For
mer Stronghold; Villa Claims
Victories.

Washington, july l6-Gcneral "a
pata's, army has been driven from
Mexico City and is retreating south
ward, after having been routed by
the pursuing Carranza troops in the
valley below the capital, according
to dispatch to Carranza. The mes
sage from Carranza stated that the
Zapata forces lost 500 men and five
locomotives, large number OF box
cars, nine cannon, over 100000 rounds
of ammunition, two machine guns,
several cases of cannon shells, the
entire hospital service and a large
quantity of mixed merchandise. The
report continues:
"The Adjusco range of mountains
on the southern edge Of the federal
district, extending into the state OF
!Morelos, the former stronghold of "a
pata and his followers, is occupied
by Carranza forces. This practically
clears the valley Of Mexico of Zapa-
ia forces.
Reports Of the military activity in
other parts have reached the state
department. Consular messages as
serting Villas forces are in the 1oal
region near Paredon and Hermanas,
and have won skirmishes with the
Carranzistas. Villa reports claimed
that Villa is moving northward from
Aguas Calientes for strategic reasons
which it is 'unwise to disclose at
present" The state department ad-
vices said Mexico City remained quiz
ct and food conditions are improv-
ing.

R. R.. COMMISSION
RATE HEARING
Creamery Interests in St,Paul to
Submit Further Briefs on
the Rates.

The state railroad commission yes
terday heard the case of the creamery
interests of this state for a reduction
of intra-state rates on cream. The
meeting was attended by number OF
railroad and express officials from all
parts of the country. G. l.. Hubbell
of the Midland Creamery company or
Fargo represented the creamery in
terests at the hearing and presented
the creamery mems side of the ques-
ton.
Creamery men throughout the state
are anxious to obtain rate on cream
that will be at least as low as the
Interstate rate. At present all cream
is shipped under the Beatrice. Neb,
express rate, which is very unfavor-
able for the shipment of cream with
in the state. The object Of the cream
cry men is to get a rate SO that cream
cries can compete with those in other
states. Under the present SYSTEM
farmers can ship their cream to St.
Paul and Minneapolis cheaper than
they can ship it to points within the
state. ~.
The commission will take the mat
ter under advisement, and further
briefs on the rate subject will be sub
mitted by both the creamery men and
by express officials.
A number OF prominent railroad
and express men were in attendance
at the meeting. including J. NJ. Rapel-
je, general manager Of the Northern
Pacific; C. L. Nichols, general super
intendent Of the Northern Pacific; w.
B. Berner Of Jamestown division
superintendent; w. |. Burr of Toron-
to, connected with the Western Ex-
press company, who with Mrs. Burr
is en- route to the Pacific coast; E. w.
Bennett, of the Northern Express Co.;
N. Macdonald, Of the Western Elk
press Co., and also Mr. Davis, with
the same company; Mr.. Quimback, of
the Great Northern Express Co., and
Attorney Tonar of Grand Forks, also
connected with the Great Northern.
Other Business.
Considerable ether business of
lesser importance was transacted by
the commissioners. A station agent
was ordered installed at Sanger, a
crossing was ordered put in at HaZen,
and plans were approved for a new
depot at Oakes.
A proposed site for a new elevator
to be erected at Temvick was also
considered by the board.
