He Evidently Is Not

Chicago, April limited States
Senator Warren G. Harding, of Ohio,
this afternoon was unanimously chosen
temporary chairman of the republican
national convention which meets here

mittee made the selection.
Chairman Hilles, of tne republican

ative proceedings which preceded Hard
ing S selection as the man to deliver the

1t is believed that Harding was ac-
ceptable to both the conservative and
progressive elements in the party. Some
considered him a compromise chairman
whose selection would coneiliate ROose-
welt. Harding is here.
Hilles would not comment on Colonel
Roosevelt 5 candidacy. Ralph Williams,
members from Oregon said the only sur
prise in connection with Roosevelt IS an
nouncement was that it was so mild.

supervision Of superintendent Cady and
Principal Frank Davey, respectively.
The three principal operations Of
preparing the flax for use is being car

flax mill. The flax is broken, scutched

The breakers consist of serrated rollers
that break the woody covering from
the flax as it is fed into the machines
by one man to each machine; another
breaks the bundles and separates them
for the feeder Another man takes the
flax As it comes from the breaker and
piles it up on a table where il can be
reached BY the men working at the
seutcning machines.
The scutching machines consist of 4
dull knives shaped like a cavalry sabre
which rcyolve on a shaft. The punches
of broken flax are held against these
knives which scrape the woody parts
from the fibre which is tnen twisted
and turned over to the hackers. The
hackles consist OF huge steel spiked
combs nailed to table. The punches
of flax are then eombed out much the

Latest reports said the Villistas were
poorly mounted and that they were fre-

podd Hot On His Trail.

San Antonio, Texas, April H.
Marching steadily southward in defi-
ance of increasing danger to their com
munications, advanced American de-
tachments were believed today to be
near Satevo Major General Fred
Funston received a message from Ma
jOr Sample, stating that Colonel Geo.
Dodd' 8 flying cavalry had already
reached Satevo.
Colonel Brown reported from Cusi-
huirachic that he believed Francisco
Villa was hiding between Satevo and
Santa Rosalia with the Americans hot
on his trail - Browns advices con
firmed the reports of an engagement at
Ojo Calientes. He indicated that close
American pursuit may force Villa into
a narrow strip of country walled in by
Carranzistls on the south and by
United States troops from Satevo. Car
ranzista reports said dc faeto govern
ment soldiers were advancing along the
railroad south of Chihuahua City.
General Funston and members of his
staff we're optimistic today, in marked
contrast to their recent non-communica
tive attitude. Funston spoke reassuring
.Of the prospect Of capturing Villa.
lIf Colonels Dcdd and Brown are
holding the trail which leads to Parral
it is evident that they are disregarding
the supply situation, The trail is a
mere winding path, skirting canyons
and fraught with many grave dangers.
AS Parra was said to be Villa 3 oh
jective, it is not improbable that the
Americans decided on q quick dash to
bring him to bay if possible.
