Sad Accident
st. Johns.-A terrible accident hap
pened at the home Of Charlie Davis,
on the Leon Hill farm. Their two
small sons, were playing with gun,
when it was discharged, striking the
oldest, aged nine, in the face, and
killing hjm instantly. His funeral
was held at the Reid church, Rev.
Parker officiating.
NewIy-Weds Don't Have Old Tubs
Greenville.-A. city official, inves-.
tigating back door conditions, came
upon an unsanitary condition at the
rear of a house where lived pair of
newly-weds. The official asked the
young bride if she would clean up the
back yard little more and in future
be more careful in throwing out gar
bage that would attract flies. He al
so asked her if she did not have an
old tub in which she could throw the
broken glass and cans, to which she
said: "Say-did you ever see a newly
married couple that had an old tub ?"
Howell.-During the recent hot
spell, one young lady decided that it
would be nice to have a case of beer
during the hot weather so she wrote
out an order for the same telling the
company to send the beer immediate
ly.
Deciding at the same time that she
could save a trip to the post Office
she also wrote out an order for a
supply of underwear.
The thermometer continued to
climb and the beer or underwear did
not show up. The young lady was
beginning to think some thing was
wrong when the post man stopped
with a letter from the beer house
saying 1--WE would like to sell you
beer but do not handle underwear"
The next mail brought reply from
the underwear house saying that they
would be very pleased to sell her un-
derwear, but that they couldn't fill
the beer order.
Be careful what envelope you put
your different orders in you who send
away for supplies as a mistake like
the above may cause quite little in
convenience to the sender.

Germans have taken up the offensive
and are heavily attacking the Rus
sian position.
The British in Mesopotamia have

and that the struggle will continue
until Germany's purpose is achieved.

Washington

appropriations has begun framing the
naval appropriation bill, including the
administration half billion dollar s.
year program for new fighting ships.
At the navy department work on
the designs of the new ships is pro-
crossing rapidly. Plans for the battle"
ships, large and small submarines, de-
stroyers, gunboats, hospital ships and
ammunition ships are virtually COM
pleted now.
The navy department states that
the plans authorized by congress for
the battle cruisers and scout cruisers
are under way, and reports will be
made shortly
From a national defense standpoint
training in rifle practice Of the unor.
ganized militia is of as vital import
ance to the country as the training
of the regular militia, according to
the national board for promotion of
rifle practice in the United States.
The president and his cabinet held
an important conference at which the
submarine attacks being made on Mer-
chantmen was discussed. 1t was de-
cided to take no action until reply
is received from Berlin to the AmePi-
can note.
The governments of the entente al
lies, through Sir Cecil Spring Rice,
the British ambassador, presented TO
secretary Lansing joint reply to the
protest made by the United States
against the seizure, detention and GEN.
soring of neutral mails. It declared
that no legitimate letter mail has been
confiscated, but asserted the allies in
tention to continue searching parcel
post packages for contraband con
cealed under postal folders"
The allied governments assert their
right to search general mail in the
following Language: THAT the inv1Ola-
bility of postal correspondence, stipu-
lated by convention No. IL of The
Hague treaty, 1907, carries by no
means any prejudice to the right Of
the allied governments to visit, and,
if need be, to stop and seize the goods
which are falsely deposited in the
covers, envelopes or letters contained
in the mail sacks"
The United States government has
stored away in it's arsenals 100000
magazine rifles, of which it will grant
free use, together with ammunition,
to all who wish to perfect themselves
in rifle shooting.
The vigorous protest of the United
States against the treatment of neu-
trail mails was based largely on evil
dence that while mails had not al.
| ways been searched at sea, neutral
ships had their mails removed, de-
| tanned and otherwise interfered with.
| The reply which the allies have sent
does not mention this phase Of the
| controversy.

were repulsed with great sanguinary
losses.
The German loan now totals 1O,712,-
100000 marks.
Over five and a quarter million Ger
man subjects have subscribed to the
war loan, and it is stated in German
circles that it is the most popular
move the government has yet made.
It is a remarkable fact that con-
ing to the German loan are the names
of many who are at the front fighting
for their country. This is said to be
unprecedented in the history of the
world.
An Amsterdam dispatch says that
it is not suggested that there is a
possibility that Great Britain will
land soldiers on the Dutch coast, but
the question is what does Germany
think of the new movement" refer

ROUND ABOUT THE WORLD
A Condensed Record Of Happenings
Of Interest From All Points
Of the World.
Mexican News

General Pershlng reports to General
Funston that the Mexican military au-
thOritieS in Chihuahua have offered
the American punitive expedition the
use of the government telegraph and
telephone lines.
Supplies for the United States punt
tive expedition have been purchased
in Chihuahua, but the limited amount
Of foodstuffs in that city made it next
to impossible to get provisions.
1t is stated that a proffer of the use
Of the telegraph and telephone lines
was made to drivers of aeroplanes
who visited Chihuahua.
The positions of the advanced col
umns of the troops operating in Mex
leo is not made public, but it is stated
that Colonies Brown and DOdd are
driving south from Satevo with all
speed possible.
General Luis Herrera, the Carranza
general whose detection to Villa had
been reported, called upon General
Pershing, and the two discussed in a
most friendly manner the efforts be-
ing made by both governments to run
down the common enemy; so it is TAX
en- that the reported detection is erro-
neOus.
The troops in Mexico will soon be
equipped with new clothing to replace
| that torn into shreds in the strain OF
the campaign.
A shipment of approximately a quar-
| ter of million dollars in Mexican gold
and silver coin to be used in paying
the wages of the soldiers, who receive
20 per cent additional pay while en-
gagged with a foreign foe, has been
made.
Canuto Reyes, at the head OF g
number Of bandits, is said to be rush
ing to join Villa and his band. The
latter is somewhere midway between
| TOrreOn and Parral.
A large number of bandits are op
Grating in the Sierra Mojada district
120 miles north of Torreon, and ar
equal distance from Parral.
General Pershing has sent reques
to Columbus, N. NJ, for more clothing
for the soldiers of the Seventh ane
Tenth cavalry regiments.
Information from the war and state
departments regarding the use Of thu
Mexican railways to ship supplies tt
General Pershing are conflicting. The
war department has no report 1ndicat
ing that the Carranza authorities a
Juarez had received orders to accep
shipments to and from General Fun
| StOn.
Another engagement is reported il
which ten bandits were killed am
two captured.
News from the border is to the Ell
feet that the Americans have pene
trated as far south as Cieneguilla
near Satevo.
An encouraging feature Of the cam
paign is found in reports to bot
the state and war departments indicat
ing actual cooperation between tn
American and de factO government
troops.
Recurring reports in Washington
that the CarranZa government ha
asked, formally or otherwise, for with
drawal of the American forces from
Mexico were disposed of by state
ment from Secretary Lansing fat1
denying that such a request had bee1
made, formally or by intimation o
suggestion.
