DEAD SOLDIER HAS
RELATIVES IN ARDMORE

John McCullom, a soldier in the
Cameron Highlanders was killed in
action at Loos recently. His cousin,
Mrs Russell Brown of this city, has
many relatives in the trenches in
Flanders. The following clipping from
the Glasgow Daily News describes the
fierce fighting in which this soldier
lost his life:
In a remarkable passage in his
speech in the house of commons yes
terday, Mr.. Churchill described the
fate "of the premier division of Scot
land
In the battle of Loos, with other
divisions, it played a very notable
part, he said. Out of $500 with
whom it went into that engagement
5000 were killed or wounded.
Some battalions lost three quarters
of their strength, and nearly all sue
ceeded in achieving the task which
was set them. (Cheers). They gained
some of the most important positions,
and these were only lost at a later
stage when they We're handed over
to other troops.
One battalion of this division-a
battalion of Cameron Highlanders-
went into action 2bout $50 strong,
with 80 officers. The colonel and an
adjutant and 10 men survived, and
took and held the objective which
they were set to take. (Cheers)
The remnant of these troops, shat
tered iin the first days battle, were
collected, and 1900 out of the original
1000 were asked two days afterwards
to make another attack. They went
over the parapet and renewed the at
tack with sthe utmost elan and spirit.
Talk about the charge at Balaclava
and the charge Of the Fusiiers at AL
beura! Those events pale before these
deeds which have been done in the
present day by these new divisions
raised in the British islands. (Cheers)
Needless to say no account of their
achievements has been published 9th
er than a very jejune account, and
that was many months afterwards.
The friends of these heroes only know
of their glory and of the heavy fight
ing in which they were engaged
through private letters.
Four battalions of this primary di-
vision of Scotland have been disband-
ed and merged with other battalions,
who are also short, and their places
have been taken by a South African
brigade.
Those battalions which had covered
themselves with glory, which had only
just been created with such immense
effort and labour, are swept away and
the officers and men scattered and dis
persed to the winds whatever their
interests and regimental ties were

Ell Paso, Tex, April i.-The capture
of Villa-the trapping of American
troOps-an uprising of all factions
against the United States involving
the overthrow of CarranZa- these
things appear to rest in the hands of
Gen. Luis Herrera. He has been foe
of Villa but recently was reported to

force of 200 men.
Monday it was said Herrera had
taken lis stand at the key to the
route along which Villa is fleeing
from DOdds cavalry and the infantry
and artillery which lumhers along in
the rear all a part OF Gen. Pershing's
expeditionary force.
1t may be Herrera's S intention to
fight Villa and dispose of the bandit
before Pershings men arrive. AT the
same time. ii is pointed out here, the
common resentment against Amer!-
can invasion may have served to weld
together these once inveterate enc.
mics. There are rumors of negotia-
tions between Herrera and Villa
which, II true, might mean disaster
even massacre-for the Americans
who are 300 miles south of the border
and 60 miles behind Villa The ban
dts flight is taking him along a
route at the salient point of which he
must choose whether to make for Chi
huahua Or Parral-and at that point
he will encounter Herrera.

fear here that the three will combine

ton:
Science has shown that alcohol.
even in moderate quantities, causes
disturbance in brain action. paralyzes
the critical capacity, power Of will, the
ethical and esthetic sense. and lowers
self-control. For this reason We
should realize that 1t is q poison and

The document received nine sigma
lures. Ten years later it was sent out
again and received 500 signatures Of
German medical men, 116 OF whom
were professors.
In 1913 q great antialcoholic meeting
was held In the Prussian house of dep.
uties. Berlin. The honorary president
was the German chancellor, DIR. Won
Bethmann-Hollweg, and on the commit
tee of honor all the Prussian ministers
were represented aud hundreds OF en-

sen, inspector general Of the Berlin
schools. called forth much applause
when he said that the education Of
youth u absolutely impossible with

Since then such instruction has been
made . part Of the regular course in
the public schools of Germany. and
entire courses In that subject are Of.
