LED INTO TRAP.
sur> ivors Of Carrizal Fight Say Amer
leans Were Ambushed.


Sixteen mere survivors Of the
Tenth cavalry, which was attacked
ay .MeXicans at Carrizal, have been
'Ound, General Pershing reported. His
,eport was received with considerable
relief at Fort sam Houston, as 1t had
been feared that all the men un-
accounted for had been killed.
The sixteen troopers were found
northwest of Santa Maria by rescue
purity headed by Lieutenant Meyers,
also Of the Tenth. This party also
recovered forty-five horses.
General Pers6ing's report was the
third received from the commander
Of the American field forces. He said
that the StOricsl lOf the latest survivors
found was practically the same as
those told by the first troopers who
returned to their base. These were
unanimous in asserting that the Mex
leans ambushedl the American forces.

HAVE YOU WEAK LUNGS?

Do colds settle on your chest or in your
bronchial tubesl Do coughs hang on, or
are you subject to throat troubles3
Such troubles should have immediate
treatment with the strengthening powers
of Scott's Emulsion to guard against
consumption which so easily follows.
Scott's Emulsion contains pure cod liver
oil which peculiarly strengthens the res.
piratory tract and improves the quality OF
the blood; the glycerine in it soothes and
heals the tender membranes of the throat.
Scott's is prescribed by the best special
is$s. You can get it at any drug store.

$733, 200, 900 INSURANCE PAID.

100000 was paid out in the United

the family Of Dohrman ]. Sinclair
Of Steubenville, o., for S37,475, and
the largest in the South to the family

which amounted to S331,349.

THAT WINTHROP SCHOLARSHIP

The CheSterfield Advertiser Of last
week copied The Chronicles article
anent the award of the Chesterfield
Courtv Scholarship at Winthrop to an
Oraueeburg county girl, and comments
at length upon same. Among other
things the Advertiser says:
I'VE do not begrudge Miss Houser
a scholarship at Winthrop. She Is
doubtless worthy student and am
bilious, but we do say that she ought
to have tried for this scholarship In
the county in which she was educated
and was making her home.
I'VE heartily commend Superinten'
dent Rouse and Mr.. Swearingen for
the stand taken by them in this matter
and only regret that they have no
authority to safeguard the. county
scholarships, though they are partly
paid for by tax money, Chesterfield
paying its pro rata"
To all of which The Chronicle
heartily concurs. But read the fol-
lowing from the Advertiser:
There is one phase of this question
that ought to occasion serious thought.
The word citizenship" is freely used
in these discussions. 1t is said and
repeated that she had not established
citizenship" in Chesterfield county.
Now what what we want to know Is
how could she establish citizenship
in this or any other county? So far
as We have been able to learn "citizen-
ship does not apply to women at all,
Only men are Citizens" if we are not
mistaken. Women are only women.
Apparently our wise lawmakers have
not thought it worth while to take note
Of women when prescribing the length
of time a residence is required in or
der to establish q citizenship.
I'VE fail to see that the question of
citizenship can enter this discussion
because we are not. talking about
