Soldiers Scatter Bandits.

Columbus, N. M., April 24-The only activity reported from the front today was renewed efforts to exter- minate the scattered bands of Villa followers, which, learning of the halt in the American operations have be- come more daring in their forays. A detail map of Columbus and the military reservations here was found on the body of a Mexican killed in a SOrtie across the frontier following the raid, according to a story, brought to the border today. The map, &C., cOrding to the story, showed the roads leading into Columbus and the loca- tion of the principal business houses and designated homes of various off, cers of the American command. With it was typewriter article asserting that American business interests were attempting to obtain control of the Mexican railroad lines and alleg- ing in support of the contention that the conference between President Taft and President Diaz in El Paso sev- eral years ago was to make arrange ments for such transa ctions. The story of the finding of the papers, which apparently came from 8 reli- able source, could not be verified here today, however.
 Major Tompkins Recovering.
 Reports from the front are that Major Tompkins, who was wounded in the right breast in the fighting at Parral, is recovering. Lieut.. Ord who was slightly injured in the same affair also is mending.
 Rather than remain as a hostage in American hands the mayor of a Mex ican town took his own life a few days ago, according to the story told by an American who reached here to- day from the front. The incident. the American said, was typical of the scn- timent prevailing among the peons.
 The mayor of a squalid adobe vil- 1age along the American line of com munication and another native was taken prisoner by American cavalry- men, according to the story, after snipers who had menaced American columns had been traced to the viii lage. Given an army mess kit at meal time, the president seized Q small, sharpe knife, and, barring his breast, drove the knife into his heart. Meanwhile, the other hostage at tempted to escape and was shot so seriously that he died shortly after wards.

POTATO PRICES HIGH
CROP LATE AND SHORT
Unusually Good Yield Around Nor
folk Benefits Dealers In
Western Virginia.

The division of markets of the Viz
gina department Of agriculture issues
the following:
The late potato crop OF the United
States is one OF the shortest of late
years United States s. ernmen re-
ports indicate that the 1915 crop is
II goo, 600 bushels less than that pro
duceo In 1918.
The high price of air foodstuffs and
the large buying ability OF the con-
Stunning public as result of prosperous
conditions of business have stin uiated
the potato market until prices are
ruling very high.
1t is fortunate. however, that the
large producing section around Nor
folk and up the Nansemond River has
an unusually good crop-both in guam
tity and Quality--and this division be-
lieves 1t possible for the dealers in the
western parts OF Virginia to supply
their needs for winter potatoes from
this source at q price that will GER
tainly save them me difference in
freight from Norfolk points to their re-
spective localities. and will also be OF
advantage Iy forming connections that
will be valuable TO them In the future.
The difference i'll freight rate per hun
dred pounds from Norfolk points to
western Virginia points, such as Staun-
ton and Roanoke. is from eighteen to
twenty cents less than from Michigan
or western New York potato shipping
points.
Potatoes are selling in jobbing prices
on tho big markets at from $3.50 to
$500 the bushel and indications are
that they may go higher yet.
