Arrest Suspect in the Big
Bank Robbery at Houston
WASHINGTON. Pa. April /.

WASHINGTON, Pa. April IA.
Detectives today arrested
Tomas J. Talbot at Mcdonald,
charged with being one of the
two bandits who last Thursday
noon robbed the First National
Bank of Houston of $16,687.
Cashier J. G.. McNutt was forced
at the point of a revolver to lie
down which the bandit robbed
the vault.
Talbott's arrest came as a
surprise. He formerly resided
at Houston, but one year ago
moved away, living near McDon-
aid.
Altho the detectives and bank
officials refuse to admit the fact,
it is said that Mrs. Erwin Cum
minis who was in he bank at the
time the two robbers entered,
and George Mcconnell, a mer-
chant of Houston who saw the
men enter te bank, have both
identified Talbot as one of the
two men.

what reply the United States

In official quarters II was SCaC-

not be withdrawn, at this time
at least, and that while the
question is being discussed with
Gen. Carranza, the pursuit of
the Villa bandits would be rush
ed with renewed vigor.
Secretary Lansing had not
received Gen. Carranza's note
and declined to say what the de-

United States
AviatOrS Made
a Fine Flight
Break Army Record in Trip
from General Pershing's
Near Parral.


All previous records for sustain
ed flight in the army aviation
service were broken today when,
according to a despatch receiv-
ed at the War Department from
Gen. Funston, an army biplane,
carrying Lieuts. Edgar S. Cor
rell and Herbert A. Dargue, ar
rived at Columbus, n. M, after
a $50 mile flight in four hours
from Gen. Pershing's headquart-
ers in Mexico.
The best previous cross-coun-
try fight for the army service
was made by Capt. Dodd of the
Signal Corps, who flew approx
mately 260 miles from the army
aviation school at San Diego,
Cal. Before that the record was
held by Lieut.. Milling, who flew
from Galveston to San Antonio,
distance of 22O miles, without
alighting.
Both Capt. Dodd and Lieut..
Milling are with the first Aero
squadron in Mexico. Lieut.. Cor
rell was one of the aviators who
was lost for a time in the flight
Of the squadron from Columbus
to Casas Grandes when the army
first entered Mexico. All four
men are regarded as experts
fliers.
When the news of the flight
was given to Brig.-Gen. Scriven,
chief of the Signal Corps of the
army, over the telephone to-
night he said:
81 trust that this achievement
ing conditions due
made under the most adverse
flying conditions due to the alti-
tude at which it had to be made,
will serve somewhat to correct
the unfair impression created
throughout the country by the
newspapers accounts of the
shortcomings of the army filters
in Mexico"
Gen. Funston stated that the
aviators brought no message
from Gen. Pershing regarding
the progress of the expedition
after Villa. The distance of the
flight is significant, in indicat-
ing that Gen. Pershing himself
| is in the vicinity of Paral, at the
southern extremity of the State
Of Chihuahua, and that the ad-
vance columns are well across
the line into Durango. Officials
of the State Department under
stand that the vanguard of the
expedition is now about 400
/ miles from the border.

START UNLOADING
CARGO OF PYR|TES

For The purpose of discharging an
imported cargo of iron pyrites, the
Spanish steamship Eola, % days out
from Huelva, Spain, was yesterday
steamed to berth well up in the slip
between Commandments and Tara
COMA warehouse wharves, and, begin
ming this morning, the large imported
cargo will be discharged. 1t is said
that it will require one hundred cars
to transport this large cargo to inland
points of destination.
The Eola follows the Spanish
steamship Cabo Cervera, which, dis
charging cargo from Huelva, went
over to New Orleans to load a mis-
cellaneous cargo. This, as stated,
makes the second imported cargo of
this material to have been .hapdle1
at the port of Pensacola during the
month of September, and there is
every chance of a third steamer, now
nearing the shores of the United
States, being diverted to Pensacola
for unloading.

Kidney Disorder

"The most simple methods are
usually the most effective ones when
treating any disorder of the human
system" The mere drinking of a cup
of hot water each morning, plenty of
pure water all day, and little anuric
before every meal has been found the
most effective means of overcoming
kidney trouble. Death would occur
II the kidneys did not work day and
night in separating poisons and uric
acid from the blood.
The danger signals are backache,
depressions, aches and pains, heavi-
ness, drowsiness, irritability, head
aches, chilliness, rheumatic twinges,
swollen joints or govt.
Since it is such a simple matter to
step into your favorite drug store and
obtain anuric, as every druggist dis
penses it, any one who earnestly de-
sires to regain health and new life
will waste no time in beginning this
treatment.-Adv.
