Negotiating roads that were repeatedly

has played an important part on the punt
tive expedition into Mexico according
to letter received by the Packard Motor
Car Company from one of its expert
drivers who Is accompanying the army in
it's pursuit of villa. This letter. written
on April s, gives thrilling account of
what desert trucking under military
necessity means. 1t reads. in part, as
follows:
I'VE are back in Columbus, N. Mar
after having done 500 miles into the in
terror Of Old Mexico. The roads are not
roads at all, and you can never realize
what we have accomplished.
We have been to the direct 'front.'

when we reached them on April 1! It
surely was not April fool for them. They
had been forty hours IN the saddle and
had literally killed sixty OF their horses
because OF lack Of feed and water for the
animals.
In going through to them. we went
forty miles farther than any other trucks
have penetrated and we are surely
getting the credit for Il. Gen Pershinz
had named US the Flying Squadron and
has asked Gen Funston to detail our
company to carry supplies to his COM

S o'clock to go through to the front again.

Barrel Of Cement Per caplta.

Every man, woman and child In the
United States was entitled to one bar
rel Of cement as his percaplta share
in 1915. The demand during 1915 will
doubtless be larger There are ap-
proximately 1OO,0O0,O00 people in the
United States, and the 1915 production
of commercial cement was about 100,-
100000 barrels, says the Improvement
Bulletin.
Some curious dlsproportions have
been noted in the demand for cement
In the various states. Very little was
used in Mississippi and South Caro-
lima. Iowa's demand per capita was
larger than any other state in the
union, being 1.84 barrels. Montana
obtained nearly as much.
One Of the companies engaged In
the industry produces 100000 bar
rels of cement yearly. While the man.
ufacturers formerly bought some Of
the machinery used in the manufacture
of cement in Europe, everything now
needed by cement mill can be OBJ
talned In the United States.

rraIn peafened soIdlers to Work.

According to official estimates, more
than $4,000 German soldiers have lost
their hearing In the terrible battles
of this war. To enable these unfor-
tunates to earn their bread after the
war, a number Of schools have been
established, WITH the aid Of the gov
ernment.
The largest one Is In Hamburg, and
'has about 300 pupils, who receive very
careful instruction, and In compare
lively short time become proficient in
lip reading. Many of them are able
to take up their former trades and
professions again, but some have to be
trained for other vocations. About Is
per cent have their hearing partly re-
stored by delicate operations and spe-
cial training.
Recently 80 deaf soldiers were grad
uated" from the Hamburg institute.
Among them were three lawyers, two
school teachers, five clerks and book
keepers, two civil engineers and two
Office managers, who all have returned
to their former occupations.

AAoLY AND THE ovERsHOEs
Old Gentleman Suffered Considerable
Agony Of Mind Because OF His
New Footwear.

The "boys" were all sitting round
the stove in the harness shop, saying
little. ALI at once Jed Rollins spoke
up:
II en- remember well when they fust
brought out the patent cOntraption
that fastens 'em. Fore that we used
to hev that kind with straps and COM
mon buckles, miz'ble, putt'rin' things
to buckle up, too.
"Aaoly Sprague used to live next to
me up in Goshen Gore more'n forty
years ago, and he saw the new clasps
along when they fust come out, and
bought him a pair of rubber shoes
with some of 'em on.
"Meigs Weeks, the storekeeper, put
'em on him, and he went home, proud
as Old Cuffy. After he got home.
Caroline, his wife, and he set round
all evenin' admlrin' of 'em till long
past ten, and then the rukus begun.
He didn't know how to take 'em off.
and she wouldn't let i'm go to bed with
'em on. He dassnt experiment with
'em fer fear Of breakln' the clasp and
sp'llln' his new Shoes"
II vow, IL t been me, I'd "a hit the
old coot in the head with the axw
said Uncle Nate Bancroft, earnestly.
"That was what Caroline felt like
doin'. 'cordln' to what she said after
wards" continued Jed. after he ras-
sled with 'em while he said he'd
seen me buyin' pair same time he
did, and he'd go over and ask me
how to unfasten 'em.

Of the message. After a moment
Obispo turned to him again.
"If you wish to live, gringo," he said,
"see to 1t that my messenger takes a
letter from you to the house of Senior
Upton this night"
Obispo waved his hand in dismissal
and Kynaston was escorted back to
the little adobe house where paper and
pens were brought him. For few
moments Kynaston sat, tapping his
teeth with his penholder, thinking
over the situation, revolving in his
mind what he wanted to tell Upton
aud how he should tell it. For he had
a message to send Upton that would
never get by his censors If they should
understand it; and his censors, more
over, would be everyone in camp who
could read.
He finally concluded not to attempt
to tell Upton of the intended attack
by Villa, but to confine his efforts to
intimating how an escape from the
house might be made with the ma
chine. After few meaningless intro
ductory sentences he wrote:
I am told that the accusation is made
against me that l have taken or con-
cealed the priceless Emerald Bell which
we captured when we took the federal
party prisoners
OF course you know that I know moth
ing OF 1t. 1 am told further that, II it is
restored, or positive information Is given
which will lead to its restoration, I will
be released.
As to the repairs to the automobile that
we spoke OF, l would take the machine
at once &c the United States. as no re-
pairs can be made here. You must take
the machine at once as the delicate
mechanism will ruin II kept here more
than ten-I wish l could write hours II
you know anything about the Jewel send
word. / am firmly convinced that the old
priest who has turned UP here either has
IL or knows where II Is.
You can see what they are saying
about me across the border. They accuse
me of having stolen the accursed Bell.
cannot imagine whore 1t can be unless
the old p-i<st has taken it. OF coms-
he has, but equally Of course no will nev=
er acknowledge II.
fear that II they shoot me will have
lost more than my life. for this attack
on my honor Will leave me IN worse casa

Then, senor," said the general,
there can be but one person who
knows about the stone. Either one of
the ladies must have seen the stone
when 1t was in your tent, or else
which is, of course. unbelievable
one Of them has taken it"
"No-nol"
The voice suddenly rose to shrek;
the Mexican captain raised his hand
to guard his leader from the blow that
he thought was coming. Kynaston
dropped his hand.
Someone in your camp must know
the matter. Doubtless if any man en-
tered your tent while the ladies were
in your camp they have seen him. A
note to Senior Upton that l will send
by an officer will discover the mat
ter. You can tell him with perfect
truth that If the jewel is not restored
your life will pay the forfeit
Wherever it is found? Do you
mean, general, If for instance should
be able to prevail upon this blind
priest to restore 1t that will be re-
leased?"
"Si--si! But mark, must have
the stone in my hands before safety
is promised to Senior Upton"
A lieutenant had entered with a
hasty report which he whispered in
the ear Of his commander in chief, and
had handed him paper. A pleased
smile stole across Obispo's face as he
read 1t aloud:
1t is permitted to announce that tonight
the gallant General Villa will make an
attack on the American army. The gal
liant general will himself lead but small
force in this first attack, and will then
await re-enforcements.
You will therefore join the main force
at Palomas by tomorrow evening. The
gallant General Villa refuses to disclose
his plans. but says he will be in Ell Paso
within two weeks.
Kynaston could hardly believe his
ears. Was villa really to attempt an
invasion Of the States? What could
such move mean but war, the wal
he was sacrificing himself to avoid
The army must be advised, but how
A murmur of approval from those
in the room had greeted the reading

There had been little rest for any
Of the inmates of the Upton house dur.
ing the night. Though they knew
right well that the Villistas regarded a
night attack with all the dislike Of an
Apache, so that little was to be feared
from that source. no one could sleep.
To begin with, old Upton and John
Wilkes sat deep IN consultation over
their rifle-butts In a corner and would
not be disturbed. The other men sat
silent except for an occasional NUT
tered remark. Mrs. Fame was openly
fearful; Dorothy alone was collected
and reserved, unbending and unswerv-
ing in her clean-cut resolution that
something must be done.
That's all right, daughter, to say
Something must be done The ques-
ticn is: What? Aye, that's the ques-
toni Isn't 1t, Wilkes?"
Wilkes nodded solemnly over uuid
