VOKED,

Washington, June Secretary
Baker made public today re-
port from General Pershing on
the fighting at Carrizal based
on personal questioning by Ge0-
eral Pershing of troopers from
two troops Of the Tenth caval-
ry engaged in the conflict. It
indicates that the attack upon
the Americans was unprovoknd,
but gives no estimates Of the
casualties on either side.

ceived from Gen. Funston the

at 1850 a. m. Boyd sent il a
Mexican guide to ask permission
to pass through the town. Mex
lean guide returned with refusal
from General Gomez. Then Go

ing that Boyd might pass through

( &C Then General Gomez him
3 self came out and discussed the

E utes with Boyd. Meantime, Mex

Earlier Decision Superseded
It had been decided today that it

fore there was any movement of North
Carolina National Guard companies
from their home stations. Then the
movements would be by regiments, one
to be modified to the concentration
camp and gotten thoroughly settled be
fore another was moved. This was the
policy decided upon by the Advisory
Board in session here today with Ad-
iutant General Laurence w. Young.
There was spirited hearing before
the board as to the place of mobiliza-
ton, whether it should be Camp Glenn
or Raleigh Representative Citizens Of
Raleigh appeared and argued for Ra
leigh and the State Fair grounds as
the place for at least two of the regi

ly hush fell upon the place. The
| quartets at the card tables held their
hands, and group of men drinking at
the bar put down their glasses. One, a
| Tri'Circ' cowboy with his back turned,
let slip an oath, and IL single swift
motion his nearest comrade garroted
him with a hairy arm, strangling him
to silence.
AS if guided by the same unerring
instinct which had made her choose
Haley's out of the dozen similar bells,
Amy Massingale led Brouillard swiftly
to the green baize doors at the rear
of the bar-room At her touch the
swinging doors gave inward, and her
goal was reached.
Three faro games, each with it's in
laid table, its impassiye dealer, its
armed lookout" and its ring of silent
players, lay beyond the baize doors. At
the nearest of the tables there was
stir, and the dealer stopped running
he cards Somebody said, Let him
get out, ana then an old man, beard.
2Q, W0lL6-UdlT6u, Wllu-ey6u, anu nag
gard almost beyond recognition,
pushed his chair away from the table
and stumbled to his feet, his hands
,lutching the air like those of swim
ner sinking for the last time.
With a low cry the girl darted across
he intervening space to clasp the stag
gering old man in her arms and draw
aim away. Brouillard stood aside as
they came slowly toward the doors
which he was holding open for them.
He saw the distorted face-masB of a
soul in torment and heard the num-
bling repetition of the despairing
words, Its all gone, little girl; it's all
gone!" and then he removed himself
quickly beyond the range of the star
ing, unseeing eyes.
For in the lightning flash of reveal
ment he realized that once again the
good he would have done had turned
TO hideous evil in the doing, and that
this time the sword thrust of the blind
passion impulse had gone straight to
the heart of love itself.

Dangers of Draft.

Drafts feel best when we are hot
and perspiring, just when they are
most dangerous and the result is neu-
raIgia, stiff neck, sore muscles or
sometimes an attack of rheumatism.
In such cases apply Sloan's iniment.
1t stimulates circulation to the sore
and painful part. The blood flows
freely and in a short time the stiff
ness and pain leaves. Those suffer
ing from neuralgia or neuralgia head
ache will find one or two applications
of Sloan's Liniment will give grateful
relief. The agonizing pain gives way
to tingling sensation of comfort and
warmth and quiet rest and sleep is
possible. Good for neuritis, too. Price

Ever since the discovery of uric

body, scientists and physicians have
striven to rid the tissues and the blood
