THE ELECTRICAL CURRENT.

There are two kinds Of electricity-altcr-
mating current and direct current. An ex-
PLANTATION of the characteristics OF each and
the difference would involve technical terms
and since either kind acts the same with cleo

knowledge is not essential to the housekeeper

CANANEA IS QUIET

Nagoles, Ariz, March 16.-American ar rivals here late today from Cananea said that while tension in that city has been noticeable recently, no popular resent ment against Americans had manifested itself up to this morning. They said they believed that the Carranza garrison there had not been apprised of the despatch of the American expedition.
 Reports here yesterday that the two American miners had been stoned to death at Puerta Citas, near Cananea, were denied by today's arrivals It was said, however, that two Mexicans re- gently were put to death at that place by Carranza troops as spies.
 The mines and smelters were reported working at full force
 Both Nogales, Arizona, and Nogales, Sonora, continued quiet tonight. United States soldiers under Colonel Sage were stationed on patrol duty every few hun dred feet throughout the American city. For the first time in several days, no Carranza soldiers were seen in the streets on the Sonora side It was reported that the small garrison has been withdrawn to the hills south of the city. Few Americans crossed to the Mexican side, but those who did reported they re- ceived courteous treatment.
 M. J. kingsbury, superintendent of the Sonora division of the Southern Pacific railroad of Mexico, returned tonight from an inspection trip to Guaymas and said that there were few signs of disturbances in western Sonora. Trains operating on the road between Hermo- sillo and Esperanza, however, he said, were accompanied by Carranza escort to prevent Yaqui attacks. For several days an armed man has been aboard every Southern Pacific train between Tuscon and Nogales.

 Protection FORCES AT OJINAGA
 HAVE NOT MUTINIED Cananea Quiet With No DemOnstra- tions Against Americans-Ammu- milton to Be Turned Over to
 Carranza Forces

Laredo, Texas, March 16.-C. A. Will Hams, United States consul at Torreon, Mexico, and 45 other Americans arrived here today from Torreon and Monterey after travelling the entire distance in box cars.
 Members of the party declared that they left Mexico entirely of their own initiative and asserted that no attempt had been made to modest them nor was there any indication that officials of the de facto government would ont offer all protection possible to Americans.
 The danger of a food shortage was one of the reasons for their departure from Mexico, members of the party said Tor reon, like a number of other cities in northern Mexico, depends almost entirely on the United States for supplies, and it was feared that the city might be isolated by Villa adherents. It was stat ed that the city of Durango where about twenty Americans are reported, is al- ready cut off from communication
 Mir. Williams refused to make formal statement, but asserted that he would remain at or near the border pending instructions from Washington.
 number of women, including Mrs. Williams, were in the party.

Douglas, Ariz., March 16.-Three hun dred thousand rounds of rifle ammunition, the first shipment of a consignment of 700 600 rounds, will be delivered tomorrow to General Gales, military governor of Sonora, hy the local customs officials. The cartridges are to be used by the detachment of Carranza soldiers led by Col. Dato Campbell, former commander of the Mexican garrison at Agua Prieta, in aiding United States troops to capture Francisco Villa and his bandits.
 The ammunition, which has been held up here by customs officials since Sun day, was released late today on orders from Washington. This action in aiding the de facto troops to obtain the cart ridges, it was declared by Ives G. Leli- vier, Mexican consul here would be oi material benefit i'll assuring many resi- dents of Sonora that the United States intended no aggressive action against the Mexican government.
 Tt proves" he added, that the Ameri- can government has confidence in the intention of the Mexican government tt cooperate with the United States soldiers in pursuing the bandits of Villa Many Mexicans have believed that the ammu. milton would be held up indefinitely
 According to MT. Lelevier, the remain der of the ammunition purchased by the de facto government should reach Doug las within day or two. It is to be sent immediately upon arrival to the CarranZa troops operating in eastern So nora to cut off Villas retreat in that direction.

BULLET FOUND BY CORONER MAY SAVE
 LIFE OF MARTIN

The finding of .3S-caliber bullet ir the body of Joe Little, by Coroner Charles l.. Spain, may result in not only saving the life of Sam Martin, sentenced to be hanged, but in establishing his innocence Pursuant 10 instructions from Governor Henderson, Coroner Spain exhumed the body of Little and carried it to the Daven- port & Bondurant Undertaking establish ment, where Dr. J. l.. Jackson, negro physician, held a post-mortem exami- nation.
 The evidence connecting Martin with the murder of Little was based on his possession of a .44-caliber pistol, with one chamber fired, which, with other circum- stantial evidence, sent Martin to the gal lows:
 His attorneys, Frank Address and E. G. Hewitt, succeeded in getting stay of execution pending the investigation by the coroner, and as a result may save the negro's life. The bullet was located by the negro physician, in the presence of the coroner, the two attorneys, Gurley Hewitt and the two negro undertakers.
 Coroner Spain will notify the gover- TOT of his finding this morning.

URGES STUDY OF THE APOSTLE PAUL This Is Dr. Eaves' Reply to Dr. Whitten's Recent
 Criticism
To the Editor of The Age-Herald

1 To the Editor of The Age-Herald: About week ago the Rev. L. F Whitten, through your hospitable col. umns, showed distress, joined with re- sentiment and indignation, because he found me apparently lending my in fluence a minister of the gospel to the enemies of the Sabbath day. Aft CT the custom of literalists, legalists and traditionalists generally he breathed out threatenings and slaughter in most kind and gentle manner and he adorned the communication with some geanings from his theological "reminiscences.
 I was tempted to a long and compre- hensive answer, but cui bono? Space is precious and my good brother is not convertible He is merely buttress- ing his inherited mistakes with the aid of old saws from the rusty tool chests of our fathers What is Liddon and what is Beaconsfield but the name of 8 man who sought with a sermon or a novel to charm backward the irresistible tides of new age? Surely their very ghosts are shuddering at finding themselves yoked together by a Methodist preach CT in defense of his own blunders!
 Dr. Whitten is fatally mistaken on the following points:
 1. He is mistaken in supposing that I want to abolish the 10 commandments. IT actually want to see the law full filled and I point out the only sure method.
 2, He is mistaken in supposng that what he calls the Jewish ritual' was abolished while the moral law" was kept in force. Here his quarrel is with all the apostles and with all the gos- pei. Can he find the distinction between ritual and moral in the New Testa- ment? According to Paul, Christ is the end of the law not of its ritual alone. And end means end, not continued in our next.''
 3. He is therefore mistaken in most fatal and fundamental matter the real difference between law and gospel. It is this that puts him out of evangel- ism and among the 1egalists. He is not only more jealous than a Jew for the Jewish law. but actually enlarges, changes and reunites that law, which he first proceeds to make a part of the decalogue and then to substitute for gospel preaching!
 I beg him to turn from perusal of his cyclopedia of apt quotations and to devote himself to the study of the Apostle Paul. Let him master the sim pie and elementary fact that neither he nor I nor any other gentle is un- der law, ritual or moral, but that we are living in the dispensation of the spirit, bound not by statutes, old or new, but by the august presence of a living, risen. indwelling Lord and King, who is our Savior.
 I reverence and admire the goodness and self-denial and devotion of my broth CT. but he forces me to preach the al- phabet of the Pauline gospel to him. With earnest wishes that he will come to rely solely on spiritual power, that he will recover the conviction of spir- itual freedom, and that he will test his teaching by these old, familiar lines: Free from the law, o happy condition! Christ hath redeemed us, once for all'

ROJAS DENIES RUMOR

Maria, Texas, March 16.-General Rojas, commander of the Mexican government forces at Ojinaga, opposite Presidio, Texas, tonight denied rumors that nis troops had expressed antagonism toward Americans or that there had been any signs of disaffection in his forces as a result of the crossing of the American expedition into Mexico
 Reports last night stated that the Ojin- aga garrison had revolted and had either killed the commander or forced him to take refuge outside the town.
 General Rojas, in a telephone message tonight, declared that the reports were without foundation, but admitted that Villa adherents on the American side of the boundary had attempted to cause dis cord among his troops He reported a hand of Villa followers at Santa Rosalie, 125 miles south of Ojinaga, but asserted that the forces under his command was ample to check any attempt that might be made by the band to cross the bor- der into the United States.
 At the headquarters here of the United States army patrol it was stated that the border situation in this section was well in hand"
