ELECTRICAL WIZARD
HERE THURS. EVENING

The lecture and entertainment to
be given at the Senior High school
on Thursday the i4th, by Burnell r..
Ford the electrical Wizard prom
ises TO be OF most unusual interest.
Mr.. Ford is an inventor Of a number
of valuable electrical appliances such
as control for the electric sign flash
ers and of an ozone machine which
has been found so valuable that the
government has purchased several for
the naval and army sanitariums for
the treatment Of tuberculosis patients.
Il is quite safe to say that never be-
fore has an entertainment been Of
fered our people which combines so
much interesting information about
the little known although familiar sub
ject Of electricity. With demonstra.
tions and experiments which are so
novel and unusual as to be in fact
hardly less than a sort Of natural mag
lc. Mr.. Ford does not seek to mystify
his audiences Rather he explains as
far as is possible how many of his
wonderful things are done. But des.
pite all such explanations, lighting
candles from streams of water, the
tip of the tongue and the back of an
assistant are very far from being com
pretended. A complete wireless sta
tion is one of the many costly sets OF
equipment Mr.. Ford carries with him,
In all he has over a thousand pounds
of this special apparatus, all, by the
way, OF his own construction.
The school authorities of the city
are cooperating with the junior class
Of the high school under whose au-
spices Mr. Ford appears here and ar
rangements have been made for spe-
cial afternoon program at S;45 o'clock
for the public school pupils.

SAFEGUARDS FOR
.E:XPECTANT 0NE:
IS n { CE Sc A RY
EARLY CONSULTATION WITH
DOCTOR GIVES ASSURANCE
ALL Is NORMAL

There seems to be growing be-
lief that the wodern woman Is not 80
well fitted to nurse her children as
her predeseccors. This is not alto
gether true What has happened is /
that there has been a considerable
amount of shirking, and on this ques
ton the words Of a well known ba
by" doctor expresses tersely all that
IS to be said.
First Of all, we have to consider
the dictates Of fashion The WON
an who couldn't has perhaps in the
past been considered rather a super
lor sort Of person, too intellectual for
such an animal task
( There has been much ignorance Of
the Importance Of natural feeding no
doubt encouraged by the half-h hearted
attitude of the medical profession on
the subject The ignorance of the
fathers in this subject is an import
! ant factor When the fashion Is SO
changed that a woman who can not
I nurse her own baby is looked upon as
a poor thing or a cripple to be pited
we shall hear less of this inability"
It is very often the case that a
mother finds herself unable to feed
her first baby because she has not
taken certain simple precautions.
Handicapped by her lack of knowl-
edge, she does not consider IT neces-
sary to take steps to safeguard her
general health until some few weeks
| before the infant is born
II IS always wise TO seek an early
consultation with her doctor during
the first three or four months. lie
is then able to assure himself that all
Is normal, and to prescribe a regime
which will enable her to progress in
comfort and when the time comes to
do her duty to her baby.
Certain old ideas are very apt to
do a lot Of harm. The commonest Of
these Is for the mother-to be to re-
gard herself too much as an invalid
1t is agreed by all authorities that
the woman who takes adequate exer-
else experiences far less trouble later.
All forms of work entailing much lift
ing and bending, are OF course, out OF
the question, but the ordinary light
household duties should be carried
out.
A daily walk in the fresh air should
be indulged in as long as possible,
and ii is also wise to seek some mild
form of diersion since too much con
centration of the young mothers mind
on her condition often leads to a.
state of nervousness.
Another fallacy which one often
encounters is that the young wife
thinks it necessary to eat for two,
with the result that overfeeding
brings on dyspepsia All that is nee
essary is that the dietary should be
on liberal scale and consist of cas-
ily digested articles.
Meat once a day is sufficient Cook
cd vegetables and potatoes in moder-
alton may be taken. but salads and
all highly seasoned dishes must be
avoided.
All the clothing should be worn
loose, so that the chest has full play
and no pressure placed ON those
parts whose proper development
means so much to the efficient rear
ing of healthy baby.--L D.

CAMP OF GEN. J. J. PERSHING AT THE FRONT, April F (By wire less to Columbus N. M., April 17)- An auto train carrying the personal guard of General J. J. Pershing, and food and clothing for his staff was attacked last night in the mountains near here by a band of four hundred men believed to have been under the command of the Villa General Taran- go. After d sharp fight in which one of the attacking force was killed, the Mexicans were driven off There were no American casualties.
 The attack was made while the train was travelling through a brush covered mesa lighted by half moon several miles to the rear of General PershiEg and his escort who were penetrating Villa territory on thei. | way south to establish new head quarters. The engagement occurred within few miles of a constitution | alist camp.

SAN ANTONIO, Texas, April IT, General Funston today expressed the conviction that communication with the American forces in Mexico could
 not be extended beyond Satevo, with
 the present number of troops avail able. He also said that operations further south were impossible unless
 authority was obtained for the es- tablishment of, a new border base, the free use of railroads or the material strengthening of the forces now in Mexico. He said that in strengthen ing the line to Satevo. the maximum of it's elasticity had been attained. Detached columns of cavalry are operating south of Satevo but only so far as rations for man and horse can be carried. The three detach- ments that met at Santa Cruz eight
 miles from Parral. now have left there and probably fallen back on the line at Satevo., General Funston ex- | plained that the country in that dis trict was absolutely devoid of food | for either the men or the animals and that unless they had returned
 to Parral, their return to Satevo
 must have been necessary. He as- sumed they had not returned to l Parral

Communication Which Will | Present Final Word on
 Submarine Issue is Con-
 pleted and Will be Dis patched Today
TRepublican A. p. Leased Wire1

WASHINGTON, April 1.-The con- munication which is to be the last word of the United States to Ger many on the submarine issue. was completed by President Wilson today It probably will be dispatched to Ber- lin tomorrow.
 The document reviews Germany's submarine activities since the Lusi- tania was sunk almost q year ago, and makes clear that only an inn mediate change in the German policy can make possible the continuance of :ions.
 As the president was putting the finishing touches to the note, on which he and Secretary Lansing had been working for nearly a week, of ficial word was received by the state department that he lives of two Amer jeans had been endangered by an at tack on the Russian bark Imperator, by an Austrian submarine. Carl Bai- ley Hurst, American corsul general at Barcelona, Spain, who sent the report said the attack was without warning. One of the American citizens on board was wounded by shrapnel shells fired by the submarine. A full in- vestigation of the incident was ord cred at once by the state department. If the consul generals report is borne out it is probable that representa- tions similar to those about to be made to Germany will be sent to Austria.
 As soon IS the president had fin ished the communication to Germany he directed that Senator Stone, chair man of the senate foreign relations committee. be invited to the White House. in order that he might be informed of the intentions of the ad- ministration, Senator Stone probably will see the president tomorrow morn ing before the cabinet meeting.
 MT Wilson himself was the only official familiar with all the details of the document tonight. but it was learned authoritatively that it is the most emphatic and vigorous diplo- matic paper the president ever has approved.
 Attacks without warning by. sub marines on merchant vessels since Germany gave notice that ships car rying guns would be considered as vessels of war have been closely studied by the president with the re sulting conclusion that promises made nv Germany have not been followed When the preparation of the case oi 1 the United States was begun it was found that sixty-five vessels have been reported officially and unof | ficially as having been attacked without warning by German subma rnes within the past few weeks.
