NEW YORK WATER SYSTEM CARE
FULLY GUARDED.

New York, April 2O.-The hurried
departure from police headquarters
here yesterday of twenty detectives in
automobiles in the direction of Mt
Kisco, north of this city, gave rise to
a report that plot had been discov-
cred to blow up a part of New York "a
water system there.
Commissioner Arthur Woods de-
clared, however the trip of the detec-
tiyes was merely in furtherance OF
the departments steps for prepared
ness
1--WE wanted to see how long it
would take the detectives to get to
work in case it should become neces-
sary," added the commissioner.

SOME FISH STORY.

(Flemingsburg Times-Democrat)
One night recently Floyd Lawrence,
of Plummers Landing vicinity, was
out fishing in Fox. He fished away all
his bait and before leaving he took
the stump of a cigar which he had
smoked. put it on one of his hooks,
threw the line back in the water and
went home. The next morning he took
a four-pound catfish off of the same
hook which he had baited with the
cigar stump. The attention of Riley
Walker, Bob Apologize and Charley
Hood is called to this item. We think
Mr., Lawrence is eligible for member
ship in the Purity Fishing Club.

HEAD OF ARMY STAFF SENT TO
MEXICO TO CLARITY
SITUATION.

Washington, April 2O.-No decision
as to tho withdrawal OF American
troops from Mexico Is expected for a
week or ten days unless there are
new outbreaks against the forces in
Mexico to compel immediate action
This was made clear when Secretary
Baker dispatched Major General Hugh
L. Scott chief Of staff, to the border as
his personal representative to make a
complete report on the military prob
lens confronting General Funston.
The administration final action on
General Carranza's suggestion that the
expedition be recalled probably will
be based largely on what is shown in
this report General Scott, who left
Washington last night, hardly will be
able to make the round trip and
complete his observation in less than
ten DAYS.
Secretary Baker described General
SCOTS mission as being to assemble
complete information as to the border
situation for the use of the depart
ment. He also will establish a per-
sonal touch with that situation for
the Secretary, which Mr. Baker has
felt need of in advising the admins
tration as to the military aspect of
the Meisan situation.
General Scott himself explained that
he would be "the eyes of the Secre-
tary on the border" Accompanied by
his aid, Lieutenant Colonel Robert f,
L. Niche of the general staff, he will
reach General Funston's headquar-
tiers at San Antonio, Tex, Friday eve
ming.
| Mr.. Baker laid stress in his an
nouncement on the fact that General
Funston still is in supreme command
of the border situation and eXpedi-
tiary forces and will remain so. He
said the department fully approved
every step General Funston had taken
and that General Scott was going only
because it had seemed desirable to get
a clearer view than was possible by
means of official dispatches.
In the meantime State Department
officials will take up consideration of
what reply they shall make to the
Carranza note urging the withdrawal
of the American forces. Some ques-
tions involved in that note can be
worked out before the military situa-
ton is finally reported II is under
stood this work will be started TO-
day, the German situation having oc-
cupied the attention of officials vir-
tually to the exclusion of other mat
ters for some days.
General SCOTS orders permit him to
go where he thinks best along the bor-
der or into Mexico with the troops to
obtain the close and accurate knowl-
edge of the situation wanted by Sec
lretary Baker lie said last night be-
fore leaving that he had no present
intention of goig beyond the border
He will make daily reports from the
border.
State department reports from Chi
huahua told of the movement of Car
rama troops from that section toward
Parral. No explanation was given. 1t
was pointed out here, however, that
these forces were under the direct
command of General Guiterres, whose
friendliness to the Americans has been
consistent. Some officials thought it
possible that the Carranza commander
intended to replace the Parral forces
said to have been involved in the at
tack on the Americans with men in
whom he had more confidence.

Sunday morning at the eleven o'clock
service at the Presbyterian church to
hear the cantata The Star of Beth

of MIR. Carl Helmstetter. The regular
services at the Methodist church were
dismissed in order that that congrega-

hearing the cantata. The Sunday
school went over to the service in a
body, and large number of the Bap-
tist congregation was present. The
cantata was thoroughly enjoyed by
those present, as was attested by the
attention given. and great praise was
given those who took part in the
special selections for the rendition Of
their parts.
The cantata will be repeated next
Sunday evening in the place of the
