Discovriens Mexico

Since Gen. Pershing's forces set
out ten days agoin pursuit of Villa,
Americans on this side of the bor-
der have been ci covering Mexico.
1t is little further from Columbus
\. NJ, to Casas Grandes, in
chihuahua, than from New York
to Philadelphia. But the journey
is not made in two hours in Pull
man car Troopers on picked
mounts, by forced marches across
pa,ched stretches of barren desert,
were able to cover the distance III
IA litlle under two days.
In Northern Mexico. with good
luck. at the end of a hard days
hide water may be found for men
and horses if there are not too
many. 1t was not planned by
nature FIR the convenience of large
bodies of cavalry and infantry. and
the MeXicans have not added many
modern Improvements. The March
sun beats down out of a cloudless
skv on endless stretches of hot sand
and the alkali dust stings the eyes
and burns the throat. 1t is coun-
try where, as the cowboys say. you
"spit cotton" after d few hours
ride.
In Mexico the good road move.
ment is backward. The motor
carrying supplies Tor the expedition
stalled on the sandy trail, and some
of them were abandoned with their
loads. 1t is not New England,
where, farmers teams can be requl-
sitioned in a pinch. The aviators
who were forced to land did not
find fuel supplies within easy reach
or machinists to tinker their leaky
tanks.
As we learn more of the truth
about Mexico, its charms as field
| for intervention will vanish. 1t is
magnificent to plan for an Ameri-
can army sweeping resistlessly for
ward from the boundary and car
rying peace and goodwill wherever
| it goes. 1t is altogether different
business to penetrate small corner
of Chihuahua and Sonora. New
York World.

The United States is adjacent to
Mexico for 5000 miles and for u
distance equal to that of St. Louis
from New York; the Rio Grande
River for ms the boundary. Except
when in flood this river is apparen-
thy an unimportant stream and
readily crossed. for the normal flow
is we'll utilized for irrigation in both
countries; but it has carved IN a
part of its course canons difficult Il
exploration. The chages wrought
bv freskes which shift the channel,
have demanded attention Of an IN
ternational commission, whose
function was to adjust a boundary
along the Rio Grande to meet vary
ing conditions. The uncertainty
of this is Illustrated by a claim
once under inve.tigation that a
portion of the important city OF FL
Paso. Texas, was Mexican soil.
The remaining 700 miles of the
international boundary to the west
separating our neighbor republic
from New Mexico, Arizona and
California is through an arid desert
section, much of which is noun
famous. This is not direct line,
but has five changes in alignment,
which have been accurately sur
veyed and established by l5S per
manent monuments easily dis
tinguishable.
Allowing for impossible canyons,
mountain BEARERS, ETC., probably
1,4O0 miles of boundary must be
under surveillance to prevent SNUG
gling or the passage of contraband
ar cles. Railways in Texas, New
Mexico and Arizona are close to
the border, and these transporta-
ton avenues unite the two nations
at seven points.

The Paris war office records another
lull in German infantry attacks in the
Verdun region. Increased artller,
activity at Malincourt, on the west o.
the Meuse, however, may, 1t is De

de Poivre pepper Heights, failed
according to Paris.
Four more steamships, two neutral,
are reported sunk, one at least by a
U-boat. Four or more lives were lost,
Holland is reported to have sent a
strong protest to Berlin on the sup
posed torpedoing of the Tubantia.
An allied squadron of sixty-hve air
ships bombarded Zebrugge and the
German aerodrome at Hauttave. Two

SUN DAY.

French and German aeroplane
suuadrons fought the most spectacular
air battle of the war in Alsace. The
machines dropped bombs Oh the Ger
man aviation camp at Habsheim and
she!led the railroad station at Null
house. On their return they met the
German squadron and in the battle
the French lost four machines ana
the Germans three.
The German forces made another
desperate attack to take Verdun and
cut the French lines near Nerdun and
were repulsed, says the Paris war
Office.
The German war office says a
French attack in the region of Dead
Mans Hill was repulsed.
-Four German seaplanes dropped
bombs over the east coast OF Kent.
England. Killing nine persons and in
turing thirty-one. Great property
damage was reported.

The fact that, out of four tele.
phone calls received by a Monte
revan from rural friends Monday
night, three were relative to the
prize fight and one to the confer
ence news, is more than offset by
the further fact that nearly score
of Highlanders went to Baltimore
