mai Asks for Interview with
Secretary Lansing
BY United Press.


san Antonio, Tex. April 24.-Gen.
Funston declared today that the Unit
ed States troops would remain in Mex
leo. The greatest fear is that there
will be an outbreak of Carranzista
forces in the state OF Sonora and re-
sultant border raids.
1t is believed that the redistribution
of troops as now proposed contem-
Plates this angle and is calculated to
thHart such attempts.
Chief of staff Scott is preparing to
leave here for Eagle Pass to hold a
conference there with Mexican War
Minister Obregon, according to reports
in military circles, which are partly
confirmed by Funston. Gen. Scott re-
fused to comment on the report.
Funston indicated that the concen-
tration and redistribution of American
troops would. continue, pending the re-
suit of the meeting Funston received
a detailed report, giving Villas loca-
ton and stating that Villa was slight
ly wounded.

WHISPERS

Jim Robinson, commissioner from
the Chickasha district, has fallen a
victim to the wiles OF the barber
Jim has always argued that he could
out-talk any kind Of talking machin-
cry. human or graphonetic, bit,
like the pitcher that went once too Of
ten TO the we'll and was broken, Jim
tackled the conversation game once
too often and lost out. He tried swap
ming conversation with a barber Sat
urday and when the knight of the
scissors and lather pot finished with
him, he had lost by the adverse score
Of 100 to 3, with his whiskers thrown
in.
The distinguished commissioner, of
the former distinguished whiskers,
steadfastly refuses to be interviewed
on the "whiskers" subject. He will
neither deny or affirm the allegation
that armed with his whiskers he so
closely resembled Carranza that he
was afraid to leave home; he will
neither affirm nor deny the rumor
that fond admirers, of both sex fac
tions, urged upon him that he would
be better looking bereft of all his hir-
suite adornment except the Buffalo
Bill moustache which the barber mad
vertently overlooked he will neither
affirm nor deny the report circulated
generally that he cut his whiskers off
because family of trained bumble-
bees, residing on the Robinson farm,
insisted upon taking up. therein, sum-
mer quarters; he will neither deny or
affirm the libelous report which has
gained currency that when the barber
invaded and explored the recesses of
the whisker wilderness he unearthed
and brought to light Jim's favorite
milestone which was misplaced three
years ago last July, right in the midst
of the haying season.
But, even though the gentleman
may refuse to be interviewed upon the
subject until he turns black in the
face, the fact remains that one of the
best single-handed takers in the ton.
sorial profession. out-debated Jim and
got his wkiskers.
No mattress factories making bids
for them. the amputated whiskers
were turned over to a squadron OF
English sparrows and will be used by
them in upholstering the several mil
lion nests which thew are at present
erecting in and about Chickasha.
