Washington, D. c., April 21.
Although the cabinet dis
cussed the Mexican situation
today, no official statement
was issued and it was said that
reports from Major General
Scott will be awaited before
any definite action is taken.
The army head is expected
to reach San Antonio tonight,
and in the meantime General
Pershing's forces at the front
are being held in what is prac-
tically a defensive position, and
the pursuit Of Villa has been
halted until the future course
of the American government
has been decided upon.

American Supplies Held Up.

El Paso, Tex. April 21.-Reports
are being received here that ship
ments of hay from Juarez to Chihua,
hua for use by the American troops,
are being held up by Carranza au-
thorities. The Mexican officials de-
clare that this is due to lack of avail
able engines on the railroad line.
There is less attempt in army cir
cles than heretofore to disguise the
feeling of the Americans with ref
erence to "Carranza cooperation" in
Mexico.

INTEREST IN
Bic REVIVAL
IS GROWING
DR.. WILLIAMS DELIVERED MOST
PRACTICAL SERMON LAST
NIGHT-EVANGELIST IN HAPPY
MOoD-cHoRUs EFFECTIVE.

The sermon by DR.. NJ. b. Williams
at the tabernacle last night was be
yond question the best and most prac-
tical one he has delivered in ArdmOre
I The tabernacle was comfortably filled
and the interest was far above what
it has been at any time during the
meeting. The evangelist was in a
happy mood and delivered his sermon
with considerable energy and EN-
phasis. He fully demonstrated his
statement of the night before that
like preacher, like congregation as
he had not talked more than five min
utes until the entire congregation was
in the same happy, but earnest mood
possessed by the evangelist.
Preceding the sermon the best song
service of the meeting was led by
Prof II. j. Bray, who was in the
same frame of mind as the evangel-
ist. The leader, the chorus, the preach
ers and the congregation were all de-
monstrative of optimism and good
cheer. The evangelists stated that they
never conducted a meeting where the
first week indicated great success more
than this one. The evening prayer
was offered by Rev. Masters of the
Oklahoma Baptist University, located
at Shawnee, Rev. Masters was for
merly pastor of the Broadway Baptist
church of this city. Rev. Williams an
nounced that tonight he would con-
duct the first after-meeting of the re
viyal At this service full and com
plete instructions will he delivered to
all workers Of the meeting. 1t is there
fore necessary that all persons know
ing themselves to be on committees,
be present and remain for the after
meeting. The service for ladies only
will be conducted tomorrow afternoon
at 2:30 instead of o'clock. There
will be services Saturday night as
usual. Sunday morning at II o'clock
DR.. Williams will deliver the Easter
sermon, on the subject THE Fact of
Christ and Is He Risen?" Sunday af-
ternoon there will be special service
for young people and children, and the
evangelist's topic will be, Where
Girls and Boys Play in the Street"
Sunday night the sermon will be es-
pecially interesting to business and
professional men and last night Dr.
Williamson gave a special invitation
to them to attend this service He
stated that he hoped the Business
Mems Association would see fit to al
tend in body.
Mark 2:24 and 20 was chosen for
the text, last night, and the following
statements are a few of the good
things said by Dr. Williams in his SER
mon; my sermon tonight is not so
much on prayer as it is on one of the
hindrances to prayer, being
an unforgiying or revengeful spirit
and families have been split
in twain where hate has come into
them. Even neighborhoods are divid-
ed because of unforgiving spirit. Ha.
tired is like cancer. 1t grips about
the heart and strangles out life. Hatred
is just such a cancer upon the body
polite, the body ecclesiastical, and
the domestic life of families. Three

DRINK HOT WATER
 BEFORE BREAKFAST
Says you really feel clean. sweet and fresh inside, and
 are seldom i'll.

If you are accustomed to wake up with a coated tongue, foul breath or a dull. dizzy headache; or, if your meals sour and turn into gas and acids, you have real surprise await ing you.
 Tomorrow morning, immediately up on arising, drink glass of hot water with teaspoonful of limestone phos- phate in it. This Is intended to first neutralize and then wash out of your stomach, liver, kidneys and thirty feet of intestines all the indigestible waste, poisons, sour bile and toxins. thus cleansing, sweetening and purifying the entire alimentary canal.
 Those subject to sick headaches, backache, bilious attacks, constipation or any form of stomach trouble, are urged to get a quarter pound of lime stone phosphate from your druggist or at the store and begin enjoying this morning inside-bath. It is said that men and women who try this become enthusiastic and keep 1t up daily It Is a splendid health measure for it is more important to keep clean and pure on the inside than on the outside, be- cause the skin pores do not absorb im- purities into the blood, causing dis ease, while the bowel pores do.
 The principle of bathing inside Is not new, as millions of people practice it. Just as hot water and soap cleanse, purify and freshen the skin, so hot water and a teaspoonful of limestone phosphate act on the stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels. Limestone phos- phate is an inexpensive white powder and almost tasteless.-Adv.

THE FIRST TASTE Learned to Drink Coffee When Boy.

If parents realized the fact that cof- fee contains a drug-caffeine-which is especially harmful to children, they would doubtless hesitate before giving them coffee to drink.
 When I was a child in my mothers arms and first began to nibble things at the table, mother used to give me sips of coffee. And so I contracted the coffee habit early.
 T continued to use coffee until was 27, and when I got into office work began to have nervous spells. Espe- cially after breakfast I was so nerv- ous I could scarcely attend to my cor respondence.
 At night, after having had coffee for supper, I could hardly sleep, and on rising in the morning would feel weak and nervous.

3,000 PER|SHED
 WHEN LINER SANK
IS GREATEST OCEAN DISASTER OF MODERN TIMEs-4,ooo
 MEN ON BOARD.
WENT DOWN ON FEBRUARY 26
French Ministry Had Previously Is. sued No Statement as to Number of Persons on Provence When
 She Went Down.

Paris.-It was announced at the French ministry of marine that there were nearly 4,000 men on board the French auxiliary cruiser Provence when she was sunk in the Mediter- ranean.
 It was stated that on board the Provence were the staff of the Third Colonial Infantry regiment, the Third Battalion, the second company of the First Battalion, the second machine gun company and one extra company, in all nearly 1000 men.
 AS the ministry of marine announc. ed that the number of survivors of the Provence disaster was estimated at 870 1t is indicated by the foregoing dispatch that upwards of 3,130 lives were lost.
 The loss of more than 5000 lives in the sinking of the French auxiliary cruiser Provence Is the greatest ocean disaster of modern times. Up to the present the larges number of lives ever lost in one wreck was when the White Star liner Titanic struck an iceberg off the Newfoundland banks on April IA. 1912, and sank with a death loss of 1,595. The rescued num- bered 743
 The French ministry of marine had previously issued no statement as to the number of persons on the Prov ence when she went down. The ves- sel, however, when in the trans-At, lantic service could carry 1860 per sons, including the crew, and it has been presumed that, as sine was transporting troops between ports not far apart she was carrying a number of men larger than her normal ca pacity.
 The official statement announcing the sinking of the Provence said:
 "The French auxiliary cruiser Pro- yence II (so designated to distinguish her from the French battleship Pro- vence) engaged in transporting troops to Saloniki. was sunk in the Mediter- reanean. Two hundred and ninety six survivors have been brought to Malta, and about 400 to Melos, by French and British patrol vessels summoned by wireless.
 "No signs of a submarine were no- ticed either before or after the sink ing. La Provence was armed with five cannon of IA centimeters, two of 57 millimeters and four of 47 millime- ters."
 Among the other great sea disas- ters in addition to the Titanic already mentioned were:
 The Cunard Line steamship Lusi' tania. which was torpedoed by Ger man submarine and sunk off the head of Kinsale, Ireland, on May ', 1915, with the loss of 1,206 lives.
 The burning of the excursion steam ship General Slocum in the East River, New York, June 15 1904, when nearly 1000 persons met their death,
 The French Line steamship La Rourgogne, sunk in collision with the steamship Cromartshire, July 4, 1o9S, with the loss of 5S0 lives.
 The Japanese liner Kicker Maru, sunk off the coast of Japan, Septem- Der 2S, 1912, with the loss of 1000 lives.
 The Canadian-Pacific steamship En- press of Ireland, sunk in collision with the Danish collier Storstadt in the St. Lawrence River, May 29, 1914, with the loss of more than 1000 lives.
