Cashier Peeved.

Because we made mistake of
$100, 600 in the total of deposits of
the Bank of Winslow in publish
ing their statement last week Mr..
Keyes, the cashier, was very
much peeved. Items of this size
may make a difference with
banks, but in newspaper offices
it is a mere bagetelle hardly
worth mentioning. The correct
ed statement appears this week,
with apologies to Mr.. Keyes.

winning and captivating smiles
that always leave broken hearts
in their wake, were on duty to
serve the assembled host with
ice cream, punch and cake.
There was a rousing address of
welcome by Mayor Smith, but
the orator from Flagstaff was
missing and the response was
dispensed with while the people
consumed the viands that had
been supplied in a "1dance, the
while the band ve rt1dering

hall. Numerous speeches and
brief and pointed remarks were
made by a number Of people,

marshalled in full regalia to en-
tertain the visitors after the re-

there were cut flowers for the

cigars for the gentlemen, and a
generous bowl of punch and
waters for all. The Columbia

Then the editor woke up, and
no Flagstaff people had arrived.

WAR WILL BE LAST RESORT
President Wilson Declares That He
VIII Not countenance War With
Mexico Unless Necessary.

New York.-President Wilson made
1t plain In his speech at the New York
Press Club banquet that he will not
'countenance a war with Mexico until
there Is no other alternative for set
cling the border troubles.
He declared again that he was ready
TO sacrifice his own political fortunes
In order to carry out his convictions
as to what would be the just course
to pursue in the situation.
The presidents audience, composed
of newspaper men, state and municipal
political leaders and others prominent
in public life. signified their indorse-
ment of his position by repeated out
bursts of applause. When he asked II
the glory Of America would be en-
hanced by war of conquest in Mexico,
shouts OF mo" came from all parts OF
the banquet hall. A similar response
was made to his query whether 1t is
Americas duty to carry self-defense to
the point of dictation into the affairs
of another people"
Fl have constantly to remind my
SELF" he said, that l am not the SER
want Of those who wish to enhance
the value of their Mexican invest
ments, but that l am the servant Of
che rank and file Of the United States"

MONTHS or SERVICE AHEAD
War Department Distributes Border
Patrol Indicating Months Of Active
Service Along Frontier.

Washington.-Whil the displomatic
aspects of the Mexican difficulty show
no change, war department measures
for a new distribution OF the border
patrol clearly indicates that months
of active service along the frontier
await the thousands OF national
guardsmen gathering In the south.
Only the appointment of general Of
ficer to supreme command is lacking
now to complete adequate administra.
tive machinery. not only for border
operations. but for q campaign Of any
desired proportions In Mexico.
There never has been any purpose,
Il was said, but to withdraw complete
" from Mexico when the de facto
government showed the willingness
and ability TO furnish adequate mill
fary protection to the border region.
That now is being given, apparently.
IN the sections from which Gen. Per
shing has withdrawn. although 1t also
has appeared that the Mexican troops
are being disposed for the primary
purpose of making a display of force
against any southern movement BY the
Americans.

Nashville Fights typhoid.

Nashville.-In an effort to render

given.
This treatment will be given free of

will be in charge of competent physi-

take on an even broader scope, the
vaccine treatment will be supplied to
any physicians who wish it, so that
persons wishing to may have private

NEwsERN MUST PAY.
Improvement Bonds, With interest
Amount To $4,000.

Amount To $4,000.
Newbern.-By a decision Of the
United States circuit court of appeals
at Cincinnati, the town of Newbern
will be compelled to pay up some $780,
900 on improvement bonds it issued
several years back, and from which it
never realized cent. The bond issue
was for $4,000, but accommodating in
terest has now doubled the amount.
When ready for floating, the bonds
were placed with w. ]. Hayes Co..
bankers at Cleveland, Ohio, that firm
merely giving the Newbern officials q
certificate Of deposit in return. Some
time later the Hayes concern became
lnsolvent, but not before 1t had dis
posed Of the entire lot of bonds. When
the town refused to pay interest or
to acknowledge the bonds, suit was
brought in the federal court at Menu
phis by Attorney w. R. Collins of Gin
cinnati, representing the National
Bank Of GAINESVILLE, Ohio, and the 9TH
er bondholding banks. The outcome
was a judgment holding the town
bound to pay bonds, inteysst and costs.
This judgment is now affirmed and
becomes final.

BRITISH ARE ENTHUSIASTIC
Big Drive Made BY Allies Results In
Capture of More Than 10000
German Prisoners.

London.-The big push" of the al
lies continues with undated energy
and increasing gains. The Germans
have been pushed steadily back until
the French are within six miles of
Peronne, vital, point on the main feed
ing railroad of the Germans and the
center Of system of radiating high,
roads. They have captured the village
of Curlu and Fraz and have broken
into the German second line Of de-
lenses at number Of points. The
British have captured the village Of
Fricourt and pushed further eastward
toward the Bapaume-Peronne high
road, which is now less than seven
miles away.
In the first &c hours OF their Picardy
drive the French and British had cap
tured more than $500 German prison
ers, cleared so square miles of French
territory Of the invaders and have
carried II villages on a complicated
series of entertainments and redoubts,
which the Germans have been more
than 20 months constructing.
The British public still displays the
same quiet enthusiasm, determination
and confidence, fully understanding
that no great drive like that carried
out by the Russian general, Brussilloff,
is possible against the formidably or
ganized German front, and that great
sacrifices and possible setbacks must
be prepared for.
Many regrets are heard that Kitch-
ener did not live to see the results of
his work. This is the first great bat
tie In which the military legions he
created were put to the test.

CAVALRYMEN ARE RELEASED
Negro Troopers Held at carrIzaI Have
Been Released and Are Safely
Out of Mexico.

El Paso.-The twenty-three negro
troopers of the Tenth cavalry who, at
Carrizal, villa Ahumada, Chihuahua
City and Juarez, have been central
figures in one of the most striking
chapters of the Mexican situation, are
safely out of Mexico.
Survivors of an engagement with a
superior force, twice stoned by mobs,
more than once gripped with the fear
of execution for their part in the Car
rial fight, and. lastly, objects Of in
tercession by the president of the
United States, they we're brought to
the border from CHIHUAHUA City on
a special train and turned over to

base. f.
With them came Lem H. Spillsbury,

Boyd and his detachment over the
trail to Carrizal Spillsbury spent the
night at the home of his brother here.
The troopers were at Fort Bliss, await
ing orders from Gen. Funston at San
Antonio.
1t was thought probable at military
headquarters the 20 troopers will be
kept at the Fort Bliss hospital until
all danger of infection from disease
will have been removed and then be
transferred to their various COM
mands.

GERMANS ARE sTUesoRNLY CON
TESTING EVERY YARD OF
THE BRITISH ADVANCE.
ATTACK LINES OF DEFENSE
Russians Report the Capture Of Many
Guns and More Than Three Thou
sand Prisoners On the
Eastern Front.

London.-The two British official
dispatches issued record little change
in the situation on the British front.
They show that the Germans have
brought up strong reinforcements from
other parts of their lines and are
stubbornly contesting every yard Of
the British advance.
The French troops cooperating with
the British in the Somme river region
have Strengthened their line by the
capture of Barleux Belloy-En-Santerre
and Estrees and are advancing on a
wider front toward Peronne.
On the British end of the line only
slight progress has been made. IN
official dispatches say that the entire
British front OF 80 miles is bearing its
full share of she battle.
Although the French are making a
steady advance in the Somme sector
without apparently heavy casualties,
they now face an easier task, to reach
their objective, the river itself. On
the Verdun front the Germans have
taken the Thiaumont works for the
fourth time. Around this place, which
has been the center of desperate at
tacks for many days past, thousands
Of men have fallen.
Russians and Italians are lending
all their strength to the combined blow
against the central powers. All along
the Russian front engagements of the
severest character are in progress and
the Russians driving north from Kolo-
mea have advanced more than twenty
miles and are threatening to outflank
Gen. Won Bothmer's army and the
Austro-German forces In the Tarnopol
region.
The. Russians report the capture of
many guns and more than 5000 pris-
oners on the various sectors of the
eastern front.
