~ The various reports that
have been in circulation during
the past couple of days, based on
rumors from the border, that the
American troopers Of the punt

The Americans have not only
met the guerillas under Pancho

force and driving Villa from the
field seriously wounded.
Mexicans Surprised
The battle took place on We'd
nesday near Torreon, when Villa
was withdrawing from that city
after having seduced a large part
of the Carranza garrison to his
cause and massacred some two
hundred Carranzistas who had
refused to betray their trust. The
Americans took the offensive and
effected a complete surprise of
the Villistas, who had not anti

the American cavalry. i q
T. These, some three hundred and
fifty in number, led by Col. Geo.

Suggestion Made By Miss
Lillian Stuart
HER IDEA OF REFORMS
Put DoWntrodden to Building
Highways From Lakes
To the Gulf
Associated Press Dispatch.1

from wednesdays OdiT.
Buffalo, N Y, October 1O.-Plans
for a highway from the Great Lakes
to the Gulf to be built by convict
labor and by free men, otherwise un-
employed, were outlined to the Amer
lean Prison association here today
by Miss Lillian Stuart of st. Louis.
Miss Stuart was appointed delegate
to the convention by Mayor Kiel OF
st. Louis. The plan contemplates
vance money with which to build the
highway and that the workers who
actually build it shall share in the
profits to be derived from it's opera
ton. At the conclusion of her ad-
dress, Miss Stuart asked the Prison
association to subscribe 5000 to her
work. 81
In her address today, Miss Stuart
said: There are two million miles
of unimproved highways in the United
States In the 'Arcadian Highway it
is planned to build the first thousand
miles of the $4,000 miles system pro-
posed by the National Highways as
sociation. Men commit crime be-
tfluse they are forced to work at
what they neither understand nor
love. Given the work they love-the
| work they do best-they never COM
NIT crime. AS a step toward solving
the problem of unemployment, pow
'erty and crime, l propose the con-
struction of the Arcadian Highway.
'The 'Arcadian Highway is a plan
to, grubstake' unemployed men to
build a road in parkway 1000 miles
long and one quarter mile wide-from
the Great Lakes to the Gulf of Mexi-
co by way of st. Louis. 1t would be
free model highway with centerway
for auto speedway and side roads for
local traffic-straight for hundred
mile stretches.
over this smooth paved roadbed
would flow such river of life as
will be seen nowhere else in the
| world: green arched, shade fiecked,
the open way with human life. 1t
would be a great national model farm
1000 miles long and eighty rods wide,
to propagate all the useful and cur
ious animals and plants indigenous to
the variety of climate and soil along
the route. After the unemployed are
given chance, favor convict labor
on the same terms as free labor, in
building Arcadian highways.
"a convict trained in the habits of
honest industry with stake accum-
| ulated at the end of his term, would
be more likely to stick with honest
industry than go back to a life of
crime"

was conferred upon about forty men.
new representatives, who had never
before been in the grand lodge Off
cial roll call was held, and reports
were distributed to the committees.
An important question that came
up for discussion was the holding Of
biennial sessions, to begin after the
grand lodge session in 1917. A prop
osition was introduced and adopted,
with regulations, for the holding Of
biennial instead of annual meetings
of the grand lodge. A special order
was then issued for the election OF
officers, and it is rumored that some
local men may be elected to import
ant offices. The afternoon was de-
voted to regular business sessions.

How the Boys in Rhondda
Valley Put Up "Dukes'
From Wednesdays DaIlS.
j. w. PEGLER.

London, September 22.-[By Mail.
The scrappingist, swattingest par
in the world-that is the boast of the
Rhondda valley in the coal fields Of
Wales.
The world is quie a chunk of terri
tory, but the valley is ready to back
up the boast with grimy il-hard
ened fists.
Saturday night in the public bars
the matches are made and all Rhond-
da valleys male population turns out
in the dawn of Sunday to battle ol
watch in the hills that cup the val
ley Every weekend from New Years
to Christmas and on through the hOl-
idays the program goes on.
This is about how it happens:
Bill Williams ambles down to the
"pub" for his Saturday evenings ev-
ening after hard weeks work anc
pretty good supper at home. He is
at peace with the world and inclined
to keep it, but only on certain terms
Down the bar is Floyd Jenkins. He is
lot like Bill; has worked hard al
week, just tucked in a satisfactory
supper and is peaceable on the same
conditions.
Bill surrounds a covey of flowing
bowls and gives voice to some radi-
cal opinions on conscription or poll
tics.
Floyd is a radical, too, but just the
other way. Of course he can't stand
by and hear his firmest convictions
run into the ground, so he wallops
Bill on the nose.
Friends intervene and the belli-
gerents draw on liberal night-caps
before winding their way home.
The same incident has been repeat
ed in perhaps a score of places.
Bill doesn't hate Floyd; he pities
him in his wrong convictions and sc
they are going to battle for a prin-
ciple
Sunday morning they meet and
fight to knockOut-out in the open
whatever the weather, with no ropes
no gloves and only the grass for their
mat.
If Bill wins he is undoubtedly right
about conscription or whatever it was
he was expounding.
The other logicians settle their
controversies in the same way.
Jimmy Wilde, the knockout fly
weight champion came from the
Rhondda valley and he learned his
fighting up in the hills The miners
are proud of Jimmy and back him to
the limit. He, in turn, has done his
part by slumberizing lot of good
fighters from flyweights to feathers
Yes, Freddie Welsh comes from
Rhondda, too, but the miners only
humble the act when they mention
it at all.
Freddie is popular in his old home
town with the inverse popularity OF
a German butcher.
