"SUNNY JIM" SEARS
WRITES F RIENDS,
SAYING "ALL WELL"

c. A. Messer and other friends in this
city have received cards from James L.
Sears of this city, who is with the End
Maine en- route for the Mexican border,
stating that "all are we'll and happy"
Mr.. Sears was an employe Of the r. P.
Hazard Co. and is known among his
friends at Sunny Jim" Although but
10 years of age he has seen military SER
vice under three flags. He was former
ly first sergeant in Company A of the
National Guard of this city before its dis
disarmament.
When but Il years Of age he enlisted in
the Uruguayan army. where he served
but little less than a year before being
mustered out, before which, however, he
attained rank equivalent to lieutenant.
He next enlisted in the British army,
where he ranked as first lieutenant. He
resigned Dec. l. 1893, but rejoined later
and was stationed in Bermuda and later
at Aldershot, Eng. From the last named
place he returned to the States. One of

is entirely possible, however. that Ameri-
can officials will not fully share the optl-
when they are able to review the Ian.
guage of the Carranza note.
Chance Of Settlement
One fact stood out clearly tonight in the
minds of officials familiar with Presden;
Wilson's desires and purposes. IT, Gen.
Carranza sincerely desires to find a way
for peaceful settlement of the differences
between the two government he will be
met more than half way.
The diplomatic discussion foreshadow-
ed in that event, however. would have tc
be wholly aside from the steps the Wash
ington government deems it necessary tc
take to protect American lives and prop
erty along the border. No proposal for
immediate withdrawal of Gen. Pershing's
troops would be entertained as prelimi-
nary to a further exchange of views on
joint operations against bandits.
According to the embassy synopsis
Of the communication which officials
believe was prepared personally by
that the de facto government will re-
store order in northern Mexico and es-
tablish an adequate guard against
border raiders. 1t is to suggest that
the presence of American troops i'll
Mexico serves only to increase unset
tied conditions in the border states
but not to make any new demand for
their Withdrawal.
The note also is said to point out
that the principle of mediation as sug-
gested by various Latin American
powers has been accepted by the de
facto government and to invite the
Washington administration to express
its views. Gen. Carranza believes, how
ever that more could be accomplished
by direct negotiations between Wash
ington and Mexico City officials than
would be possible through media ton
proceedings.

sent to point from three to five miles
behind the lines. AS it was in the dark
ness of night he could see but little detail
of the battlefield. but witnessed the burst
ing of shells and heard the roar of battle
at close range.
Occasionally German shells fell within
the limits of Wimmereaux and one shell
burst in the rear of the hotel hospital
shatterng panes of glass.
Or. Faulkner states that most of the
wounds were inflicted by grenades and
shrapnel and that while many of the pa
tients were badly mutilated a large por-
ton recovered. There were but few vic
tins of rifle shots and bayonet wounds.
