~ trolls along the lnternationaI

Nogales. Ariz. and Nogales, Sonora,
just acros the border.
Both towns were tranquil tonight.
The Carran2a soldiers at Nogales,
Sonora, strolled the streets or lounged
about the plaza where band concerts
were given. On the American side
an artillery drill by American sold
icrs was conducted back of the town
hidden from the view of many Mexi-
can refugees. This measure, It was
said. was taken as Drecaution
against exciting peaceful Mexicans.
Col. william II. Sage. commanding
the Twelfth infantry at Camp stephen
Little. here, said today he had re-
ceived no orders for the movement OF
the two thousand three hundred troops
in his command. II was expected

GROCERY STORE IS
ROBBED OF MONEY
Masked Robbers Enter the
Store and Help Them
selves to Cash.

During the busiest hours of j. T..
Gentry, proprietor of the grocery at
1915 East FGirView avenue. in Fair
view addition, last night, two masked
men entered the store and. at the
points Of revolN ers, held up the pro-
prietor and his customers and robbed
the cash register of all the money IT
contained at that time. s5. The men
then backed out of the store and
made their escape.
Although the police were notified,
the fact that the store was outside the
city limits made it impossible to carry
on effective work and the result was
that neither of the bandits had been
captured last night. Good descrip.
tons of both were furnished the po.
lice. however, and probabilities are
they will be captured before noon to-
day.
The men, both of whom were
white, entered the store with re-
volvers and commanded everyone to
hold up their hands. The command
was quickly obeyed, after which the
proprietor of the store was backed
against the wall and admonished
against making an outcry. The rob-
bers then empticd the cash register
of the change which had been placed
there following the afternoons bust
ness and left. No effort was made
to steal anything else.

However. Region Around
Dauaumont Is Heavily
Bombarded.
GET CORBEAUX WOOD
French Claim Teutons Re
tired Leaving Field
Uttered With Dead.

THE German offensive for the time
= has been slackened is the Nerdun
region. The French official report
announces that there has been no re-
cent attempt at infantry action on
the part of the Germans along the
whole of the front.
ON the east bank of the Meuse the
region around Douaumont is being
subjected to a heavy bombardmcnt
but on the rest of the center and in
the Woevre the guns are not working
so actively and on the western bank
of the Meuse in that section from
Bethincourt to the Cote de L'Oie the
artillery duel has been comparatively
unimportant.
In that region the Germans claim
to have retaken most of the CorbeauX
wood, the possession of which is like
iy to prove a factor in an attack on
the Cote de LiOie, the Germans also
holding Hill 265 to the northeast OF
that important strategic position.
Describing the German attacks on
the French trenches west of Douau-
mont on Friday. the official statement
of the French war office says that the
Germans three times in columns of
four rushed forward to the assault but
were moved down by artillery and ma
chine gun fire. They were forced to
retire leaving the ground covered
with dead bodies"
Saxon Rush Effective
Saxon regiments by sudden
thrust in the Champagne have cap
tured positions over considerable
portion of the French front The
German war office announces that the
ground gained was about two-thirds
Of "A mile deep along one thousand
four hundred yards of front and that
several guns and more than seven
hundred prisoners were taken.
The attack was made near Rheims.
some distance west of the scene OF
the last previous German assault in
the Champagne.
There have been no indications
thus far that the Germans have at
tempted to follow up their attack.
Although the French continue to
offer stubborn defense before Verdun
the Germans have gained additional
ground. Berlin announces that the
French have been cleared from Cor
beaux and Cumieres woods west Of
the Meuse. The official French state
ment says the Germans captured
part of the town of VauX. northeast
OF Verdun, but were unable to reach
the fortress of that name.
Scaplanes Active.
The German admiralty reports that
German seaplanes attacked a Rus
sian squadron of one battleship and
five detsroyers off the coast of Bull
garia. 1t is said some of the de-
stroyers were hit.
A wireless dispatch from Berlin
gives report said to be based on in
formation given confideniially by the
French war minister, General CAL
lieni, that French casualties to March
amounted to 100000. II is said
100000 wero killed and 1.400, 900
