Mexican and Foreign War News.

On March 9 the relations be-
tween the United States and
Mexico became greatly strained,
when Francisco Villa at the head
of several hundred bandits raid
ed the town Of Columbus, New
Mexico, killing nine civilians and
eight American soldiers. The
18th u. S. Cavalry, stationed
just outside the town, responded
at once to the alarm and drove
the marauders back across the
Mexican border. How many
Mexicans were killed is not
known, but it must have been
between rs and 100, including
Pablo Lopez. the second in COM
mand to Villa himself. Presi-
dent Wilson acted Immediately
on receiving the news, and or
dered five thousand troops to
pursue Villa at once and capture
him dead or alive. The punt
tive expedition was delayed three
or four days, until Gen. Funston
could mass two columns of troops
at different points on the border
and give them orders as to how
they were to proceed. They
then set out on the trail, and are
now about 200 miles in Chihua-
hua, and scouting among the
Sierra Madre mountains hunting
for the bandits. Carranza, the
defacto president, has agreed to
assist in the hunt for Villa and
his outlaws. In the meanwhile
the whole American people are
in a ferment of excitement over
the outcome, and many persons
think it will be almost impossible
for the United States to avoid
becoming embroiled in war with
Mexico aboIt the matter.
The war in Europe and Asia
Minor and on the high seas has
continued in various quarters
with increased vigor upon the
approach of spring. This is es-
pecially the case at the great
fortress of Verdun on the French
frontier, where the Crown Prince
of Germany has made many fierce
attacks within the past two
weeks in massed formation, and
has sacrificed thousands of his
soldiers in the attempt to take
the French Notifications, which
seem to have withstood the or
deal with but little material dam
age.
Along the 7OO-mile front in
Russia, where the opposing
troops of the German Emperor
and the Car have been dug in
with locked horns all winter
there is great activity. Berlin
reports say the Russians have
attacked at many points, but
have been driven back with great
slaughter. while Petrograd ad-
vices claim that the Russians
have made successful attacks at
several points. One thing how
ever, remains undisputed, and
that is that the Grand Duke of
Russia has smashed his way into
the back door of Turkey, advanc-
ing through the Caucasus and
capturing Erzeroum, the chief in
land city of Turkey. and is now
threatening Trebizond, its chief
port on the Black Sea.
With slightly varying success
the war in the Balkans and on
the high seas continues about
the same with slightly increased
vigor and confidence in the ranks
of the allies.

Three Autoists in
Mourning for Cars

Bob Robinson of Portsmouth, Ia,
fivvered over to Omaha for a short
visit here, but he won't flivver back.
He left his travelling companion at
Fourteenth and Douglas streets and
some miscreant is doing the fivvering
in it now.
Automobile thieves also swiped a
machine owned by M. B. Gray, SOC
South Thirtieth street. The car was
later found near Twenty-6rst and Cal
ifornia streets with the tires missing.
A window in the garage of Alfred
Bloom, 2203 Miami street, gave auto
thieves an opportunity to break into
the garage, force open the door from
the inside and roll away, in Mr..
Blooms new six-cylinder machine.

0maha-LinCoIn-
Road is Shortest Route

The Omaha-Lincoln-D Denver road
will be thirty-six miles shorter than
its original map planned, according
to the announcement of D. w. Irwin,
former Omahan, who is chairman of
the board OF directors of the highway.
In making the distance from Fort
Morgan to Denver, the road build
ers did not touch either Greeley or
Brighton, but proceeded by way of
Hudson, an almost straight-line route.
Mr.. Irwin conferred with S. Z.
Smyth of the Automobile club and
says Mr.. Smyth was quite pleased
with the project. The new road will
be S3S miles long, shorter by thirty
FIVE miles than any other highway
from Omaha to Denver. The last bit
of roadwork will be finished this
month, said Mr.. Irwin.

Mayor Jim Recalls
Trying to Corral
Some Wild Horses

Mayor Dahlman says he knows a
few things about wild horses.
"If there is anything hard to catch
it is wild horse" said the mayor,
reminiscently.
an my cowboy days I caught wild
horses in Wyoming, Texas and west
ern Nebraska, and | recall that some
times we would be a week getting a
bunch of the critters corraled. They
would travel over a territory about
sixty miles square and would stay
within their particular range. Round
ing up wild cattle is child's play COM
pared with wild horses. No, do not
own any wild horses at this time"

Burlington May Build
Across Wyoming Oil Fields

The development of the oil fields
in the vicinity of Douglas and the
striking of number of wells nearby
has revived the talk of the Burlington
building across Wyoming from New
castle, or some other point on its
Billings line, to Douglas or Casper
on the Powder river extension of the

1t is believed that the oil fields of
Wyoming extend over a greater por
