Claims English Blood.

when an American wants prOtec-
tion from the Mexicans he claims to
be an Englishman," said Miss Bailey
to Pioneer representative. "The
Mexicans respect the English flag but
have ceased to respect the American
flag through the many insults being
left unpunished.
"The feeling of the Mexican is not
strange, however, since the Amer
leans hate the Mexicans. There is
no love lost between the 'greasers'
and the 'gringoes.'
Expect Big Attack.
THAT the Mexicans intend to,
through deceiving the United States
troops in stating that Carranza ia
vors the pursuit, draw our men to
Mexican soil and then Join forces is
generally conceded near the border"
In regard to the Columbus raid,
Miss Bailey said:
"Word first reached Deming on
Thursday morning when A. D. Frost
accompanied by his wife and baby
drove in from Columbus by automo-
bile. Mr. Frost stated that upon
hearing a number of shots at about
three O'Clock in the morning, he ex-
pected trouble and found that the
Mexicans had commenced raid. He
reused his wife and child, and with
out dressing took the automobile and
hurried toward Deming. A shower
of shots from Mexicans was sent after
them and Mr.. Frost sustained bullet
wound In the shoulder.
'Mr. Frost's story angered the cit
liens of Deming, and armed bodies
of men started in pursuit of Villa.
The parties ended the chase nine
miles out of Columbus"
In State Of Horror.
The whole territory along the bor-
der is in a state of horror on account
of the atrocities committed by the
Mexicans, according to Miss Bailey.
She stated that in the Columbus
raid "greasers'' ran through the
streets killing everyone on the streets
and setting fire to buildings. AS the
citizens attempted to escape from the
flames, General Villas men shot them
down and threw the bodies back on
the flames.
"There was one queer result OF thf
raid" said Miss Bailey. "The day
following the raid every Mexican
paper played up Villa as the hero
One Stated that Villa had captured
Arizona and New Mexico and thai
President Wilson had fed to Canada
This made Villa the hero of Mexico
and increased his forces many thou
sands.
Miss Bailey stated that Villa wa
considered by far better genera
than Carranza in that he is NOR
popular and has superior contro
of his forces. The reports In Mex1
can papers tend to increase his popu
larity.

the announced purposes of the
new submarine campaign to sink
without warning all armed mer-
chant ships, despite President
Wilson's reiterated contention
that such a practice was contra

the United States contends.
1t is known that among the
elements leading to the Presi-
dents action were repeated de-
Iclarations of Germany's unyield-

ed statements from Berlin by
the highest officials of the Ger

even approached intimations of

good books for children, twelve
thousand responses were receiv
ed by the Chicago Tribune.

Few will care to dispute the
title of favorites like BLACK

others to a place in children's
hearts. The most interesting
thing about the contest is the
avoidance of college entrance re-
quiremeuts in the selections. 1t
can not be too strongly urged
that popularity is test of real
merit in literature. The schools
proceed often, however, on the
principle that while teaching lit.
erature. they must teach some
thing else more important. In
other words. literature is not tC

indirectly; character is to bt

appreciation forced into bloom
The result is inevitable disgust
