MESA VERDE NATIONAL PARK.

The Denver 4 Rio Grande is taking
much interest in the Mesa Verde
park. That company has sent out
much advertising matter to eastern
points. The press Of the San Juan
has done much to get the facts con-
cerning these ancient ruins before
people. Eastern papers and maga-
zines have seen fit to reproduce
many articles published in Col ,rado
papers.
The Durango Exchange is now in
receipt of excellent photographs of
the Spruce Tree house and Cliff Pal
ace, in the park, presented by the
Denver & Rio Grande.
Every historian, scientist and geo
logist finds the study of these an
cient ruins most interesting. Many
articles have been published by ex-
plorers and discoverers, but the only
way to get any thing like an ac-
curate idea of these ancient ruins is
to visit them.
Certainly some race inhabited these
parts before the Indian. There is
no evidence upon the earth of a peo-
pie now existing who builded those
houses and palaces. Evidently that
race long ago passed away before the
onslaughts of more savage men.

VIOLATED INSTRUCTIONS

In the cases of the four freight ships
regarding which President Wilson
also inquired, the ambassador said,
Germany has never pledged herself
to warn freighters, and while they
continue to supply the allies with
munitions and food and as long as
the allies continue their starvation
blockade of Germany, our country
can never yield the right to sink
them.

WASHINGTON, d. c., April S.
The official order given to General
Funston on March 10, has been made
public. 1t doesn't say get Villa
but says that the United States will
regard the mission completed as soon
as "the defacto government is able
TO relieve the expedition from the
task Of breaking up Villas band"
When asked to explain the. vari-
ance of this order and the first an
nouncement that the expedition was
to get Villa, high authority said:
81 can't say anything to that.
These are the orders, and people
should not interpret them to mean
that we are about to withdraw from
Mexico"
However, the publication of this or
der when reports from the border
say that Carranza may request the
withdrawal, may be interpreted to
mean that the administration is pre-
pairing to agree to such a move.
Plainly, from the language of the
orders, the United States could with
draw before Villa is captured.
The army officials say that as far
as they know the hunt will proceed
to the end of Mexico if necessary
in order to capture the bandit.
COLUMBUS, N. NJ, April Sit
has been officially confirmed that the
expedition is entrenched around Boca
Grande and elsewhere on the line of
communications, and that they are
preparing extensive defensive works
around the temporary bases.
Lieutenant Coll of the Thirteenth
cavalry is reported to be dying at
Cast Grandes from pneumonia.
SAN ANTONIO, Tex, April s.
Private advices, besides those of the
Mexican consuls state that the cap
ture of Villa, or his death is but a
matter of few hours. The impress
sion here is that important news may
be heard soon and an air of expec-
fancy prevails the city.
The Carranza consul believes that
Villa has been captured.
The Washington intimation that
the expedition will be withdrawn as
soon as the bands are scattered, is
not credited here. The reinforce
ments that have recently been order
ed into Mexico and the plans for
further troop movements indicate a
powerful effort on the part of the
entire American army to kill or cap
turo Villa.
The army headquarters are con-
WINGED that Villa is near Parral, and
two American columns are reported
to he on forced marches in pursuit
of him. Strong Carranzista forces
confront Villa just south of Parral.

and surrendered themselves the
ministrations and care of the nurs-
es.
No wounded came in while | was
there. There was no terrible rush,
such AS sometimes happens during a
battle when torn and bleeding men
pour in like flood, night and day,
and test the nerves and strength Of
the doctors, surgeons and nurses al
most to the breaking point. / sup
pose such men sigh too, if they have
the strength, when they find that
they have exchanged their bed of
blooded mud on the battle field for
the white sheets and soft cots and
the gentle care of the nurses in some
tent hospital.
Most of the men who came in
while was there were sick Of grin
Or pneumonia. Some % them were
Englishmen, who, in spite Of some
chronic ailment of long standing, had
volunteered and tried to stand the
roughness Of field life, only to have
their old ailments exaggerated. Most
Of them had tried to fight off the
illness and hadn't surrendered un-
! til an intense fever or pain had over
como them.
Get to the hospital with your
boots on" seemed to be their motto.
Tho they came in ambulances, they
rarely came on stretchers. There is
always something pit:sul and grue-
some about huddled sorm on
stretcher and you don't want to be
that form yourself, II you can help
| It.
The next step with a newcomer il
to sit on the edge of the cot which
has been assigned to him. II he
is very ill he might at least stretch
out on the blanket.
Don't surrender" seems TO be tn,
idea. Get to the hospital with your
boots on and keep them on as long as
I you can"
But shortly a white-clad and very
businessike young nurse would take
| "-"sNNi9 III manu-, anu, as II were,
throw up the sponge for our con-
quered hero. She would como in
with pajamas, of soft cotton flan-
mel, made by the kind hands of Ca
madam women, and pair Of bed
socks of the same material.
"Off with your Clothes" she woulJ
say. "Get into these and 20 right
to bed"
But" the officer would begin to
protest.
Unto bed" the nurse would order,
firmly. And the man whose Job it
was to order around thousand men,
even to the point of death, if neei
be, would meekly submit.
Within ten minutes the pajama.
clad figure would crawl in between
the warm blankets and then would
] come the sigh. Rest and comfort
and care at last, after the mud and
wet, cold and dirt, beds of straw and
sleeping bags.
