There being no fight on the candidate

question of who is TO be the candidate

activity Of former ambassador to Tur

comment among the delegates who are
inclined to believe that Morgenthau
who is close to the White House, may
represent the wishes of Mr.. Wilson,
and that the naming of Mr.. Baker,
might not prove unacceptable to the
head of the ticket

wv ASHINGToN, June 13. - That
" the rising tide of nti.American
sentiment In Mexico has become
really alarming, and may at any mo-
rent precipitate crisis between the
two countries, is frankly admitted by
the government officials in the state
department and department of justice,
and last night there was manifest a
marked feeling of alarm7in all govern
mCnt circles.
That the ,admi inistration is alive to
the gravity of the border situation was
shown last night when Secretary of
War Baker, after a long conference
with President Wilson, issued formal
orders directing 1900 additional men TO
report to General Funston for duty as
border guards. The patrols now on duty
there are manifestly too few TO effec-
lively protect the smaller town. and
isolated ranches from raiding parties
belonging to the two wa ifing factions,
and every effort is TO b made by the
department TO close the gaps in the
line as much as possible and ia ftrru.

spreading rapidly throughout the south

Willard Fillmore. to Mir. and Mrs. Ernest Manning; a daughter, Julie Christine, to MT and Mrs. Lloyd R. FRobinson; a daughter, Marion Dana, to MT. and Mrs. Clifford Robinson; a daughter, Mary Augusta, to MT. and
 Mrs. Reuben Manning; a daughter, Edna Helen. to MT. and Mrs. Byron White. This makes a net increase of six. There were 78 present on Thurs day Of those present twenty five were present at the first family re- union 32 years ago.
 An unusual fact in connection with the Robinson family is that three of Arad and Lura Robinson's daughters married three Manning brothers. Of the total number of the Robinson fam fly, 176, there are 82 Mannings.
 Arad Robinson was seventh in line from Rev. John Robinson, who was born in Norwich, County Suffolk, England, was of Episcopal parentage, and was educated at Cambridge uni versity, which at that day was the breeder of Puritanism. He, with William Brewster another Puritan of the strictist kind, separated from the Church of England on account of the Congregationalist idea of church gov ernment.
 At Scrooby, England, was held the first meeting of the Congregationalist church with the Rev. John Robinson the pastor in 1914.
 Very little is known of John Rob inson's childhood. He was born in 1576 and entered college in 1915, be- in gthen 39 years of age. He mar Bishop White of the Church of England. Three sons and three daughters were born to them.

 Arad Robinson was born in the town Of Lebanon, Conn, Jan. 30, 1797, near the town line between Lebanon and Windham, just across the road from the house, which still stands on the point between two roads on the hill short distance west of the corner where the three towns of Lebanon, Windham and Franklin join
 Arad was the son of Peter and Polly CTaylor) Robinson. Peter Robinson was a blacksmith and had a shop near his house. Within a few months after the birth of Arad, he went with his family to Union, Conn. This town borders on the Massachusetts Connec- ticut state line. He remained at Union for eight years when he came to Franklin and lived and had his shop at Pautipaug.
 Arad was the only son and second child. He had six sisters, Rosamond, older, who died at 25 years, unmarried, she was a. school teacher; Olive, the third child, was also unmarried She was a schoolteacher and later in life a tailor. She lived to 75 years. Polly, married Gurdon Ladd and died at 30 Lucy married Coddington B. Brown
