The infantry has remained idle in
the trenches, while the big guns are
showering shells on the region EN-

even a sally by the Germans in this
district is reported in the latest

IN THIS CITY WAS GIVEN BY
DIRECTOR month"; AND HIS
MEN LAST NIGHT.

The last concert given by the Fifth
Field Artillery Band, under the dlrec-
ton of Prof. Montin at the High
school auditorium last night was an
artistic success, and those who re-
mained away on account of other
attractions missed the best musical
treat ever given by military band in
this city. The band gave the concert
more as a compliment to the Bust
ness Mems association than from
any other desire, and the audience
greeted every number with salvos of
applause which demonstrated their
appreciation of the work of Director
Montin and his men.
No set program was prepared be-
forehand, but the selections rendered
were of the very heaviest character,
which brought into effect the perfect
training of this splendid organization.
Director Montin favored the audi
ence with a euphonium solo, taking
the Toreador song from Carmen, and
the manner in which he rendered
this classic demonstrated the fact
that he is a perfect master Of the
instrument. He responded with a Sc
lection from the works of Verdi,
which was equally as good as his
initial number.
Corporal Bird sang "The Rosary"
accompanied by the band, and capti-
vated the audience with his splendid
voice. AS an encore, trio, con-
sisting of Corporal Bird and two
other members of the band, responded
with a couple of choruses from pop
ular songs.
Bandsman Jagendorf, piccolo and
flute soloist, with the band, delight
ed the audience with ripping polka
on the piccolo, especially adapted to
that instrument, which made a de-
cded hit, and he was compelled to
respond to several encores, and his
work was but another demonstration
of the individual ability of each mem
Der of the band.
1t is to be regretted that not more
were out TO hear the concert, but
many were kept away by sheer eX-
haustion, as the past week has been
a most strenuous one to the citi-
zens of this city.
After the concert last night many
business men in the audience went
forward and assured Director Montin
that they would make an effort for
the return Of this band On every oc-
casion possible, and thanked him for
the generous manner in which he
and his men responded upon every
occasion.

NJ. RICHARDS
ENDED OWN LIFE
THIS MORNING
APPARENTLY NO CAUSE FOR
Rash ACT - STANDS BEFORE
MIRROR AND PULLS TRIGGER,
ENDING LIFE.

With no cause that his family or
the men with whom he is associated
can account for, and leaving no rea-
son for his rash act, w. |. Richards,
night superintendent at the Ardmore
Oil & Milling company, shortly after
he returned to his home at 113 Third
avenue, northwest, stood before a
mirror and fired a bullet from .3S-
calibre pistol into his right temple,
the ball passing entirely through his
head His wife and daughter were
in an adjoining room.
He arrived from his work shortly
before $50 in apparent good spirits,
and members of the family had not
the slightest intimation of his inten-
tion. The day superintendent Of the
mill stated that when Richards left
for home he was as cheerful as usual,
and that so far as he knew there was
no reason for his committing the
deed.
Richards was II years of age, and
is survived by his wife and one
daughter about 13 years of age. The
remains were taken in charge by
Undertaken Bridgman and prepared
for burial. No plans had been made
for the funeral, but it will probably
occur from the family residence to-
morrow afternoon, with interment in
Rose Hill cemetery.

Militia to Guard Border

Washington, April 13.-Unless the
work of the punitive expedition in
Mexico is accomplished within a very
Few days, means will be sought to
strengthen General Pershing's forces
at the front, it was authoritatively
announced last night. 1t is explained
that General Funston will ask the
war department to move into the
southern department the 1000 troops
that are stationed at other points in
the United States. If this is done
they will be placed on duty along
the border, relieving for service in
Mexico 10000 soldiers now doing gar
rison and patrol work on the frontier.
If the department regards the trans
fer of troops not now in the depart
ment inexpedient, il is believed that
Funston will recommend the use of
state militia to relieve the troops on
the border.

San Antonio, Tex, April 13.
General Funston received ad-
vices today of an encounter be-
tween American soldiers and
either Mexican military forces
or the civilian population of
Parral. The details are una
vailable.
Consul Letcher at Chihuahua
sent a report quoting the COM
mander of the Parral garrison,
who said that the Americans
appeared unheralded in the
town causing alarm among the
MeXicans who fired upon the
Americans, the latter returning
the shots. The Parral COM
mander belittles the event.
CarranZa's note asking the
withdrawal Of the Americans
caused no surprise here. In the
light of developments, military
men regard the activity of the
Carranza soldiers on the border
and in Chihuahua as explained.
They assume that the Carran-
cistas are quietly being placed
in a position to be most effect
i've in case of a break with the
Americans.
Until Funston receives orders
from Washington, no change
will be made in the conduct of
the Villa campaign.
